    This will probably be capped like Strat bombing was awhile back. I remember you could just steal all the warscore by building thousands of strat bombers and leveling every building in Europe to get all the warscore without even fighting a single battle. Although I hope Paradox caps this to a percent rather than a hard score like strategic bombing.

    Discovered this a while back when I was playing a Soviet Bukharin play through. So I had production to spare since I managed to win the RNG game and assassinate Stalin really early in the play through. Was doing really well holding the line since I fortified my borders but I didn't want to push yet. So I sent a lot of my excess weapons production to the UK and eventually the US when they entered the war. Noticed my war participation kept going up even though I wasn't pushing yet. Saw I was gaining it from lend-lease and that the UK and US had almost no war participation. After I felt like pushing I managed to have enough participation to demand all of Germany and all of the Balkans and a good chunk of Italy. Once WW3 kicked off I didn't have to push far.

    16:38 hey there, lore master timmy here. I ran a few numbers on this bad boy. The total population of Mongolia in 1946 was 759,400 (today it’s 3mil btw). So 208,500 casualties is roughly 27.4% of their total population.
    But it gets worse. Nearly all of the military at this point was man. And surprisingly Mongolia has a near 1-1 ratio of males and females. So cutting the 759,400 population in half gives us a 379,700 male population. Combine that with the 208,500 casualties gives us a grand total of 54.9% of the male Mongolian population killed.
    TL;DR: half of the male Mongolian population died in this war.
