@DoManMacgee Oh no, it’s not finished, it’s in progress. I need to figure out the Collect Income too, and that is not easy. We have the GDP that change all the time, and also the Military Outlays change from month to month. I don’t even know for sure how many aircrafts were made because the estimates differ from source to source. Some say US made 30 000 aircrafts but no more than 2000 were operational at any time, so where did all the planes go? And the estimates of casualties on the Eastern Front differ one million men give or take. In my Blog that is like 10 Infantry. I can’t make an accurate historical correct Blog if I don’t know the correct numbers.
Oh wow I didn’t know you were actively going back and editing it to be more correct. That makes it a much more interesting project because of the level of accuracy that you’re striving for.
to solve this I could let Germany dow USA in Round 9 fall. Also not historically correct, since in fact Japan dow’ed USA before Germany dow’ed USA. A very importent point is that Japan would’nt dow anyone before the german attack on Moscow was resolved. IF success Japan would attack USSR far east, but if failure Japan would attack USA.
Have you considered using one of the unofficial fangames like HBG’s Global War 1936 to go to a finer level of detail? It may help with some aspects of the simulation since basically every country from the era has its own space on the map (so, for example, Hungary and Czechoslovakia are their own territories, no “Hungary-Slovakia”).
To change the Turn order was never even considered. That would mess up everything.
Yes I agree. The point is to simulate the war using in-game rules as closely as possible.
I don’t see any other way to do it. A slight violation of the OOB rules yes, but also the less of many evils. But I am surprised it was no questions.
I didn’t mind the liberties you took because I was not familiar with other projects that have done similar things. I will have to go through and read some sections again to ask more detailed questions.
