"Now that's just straight-up unfair." Tell me about it, Bo. As Greece, I was responsible for a third of all Axis casualties once, but the UK AI wouldn't give me my cores because I was too good at not-dying. Why are casualties inflicted not counted towards war score?
I had a Yugoslavia game where the same thing happened. Held most of my country the entire war, diverting an enormous amount of German resources, and killing somwhere near 4 million axis troops. I think I got 3% warscore.
Yeah I just throw men at my enemies near the end of my war to get war score, once I got over ten million casualties in about 6 months. I was China though so it was worth it. I lost an additional 2 million in the invasion of Japan (thanks AI USA for destroying the Japanese fleet).
Casualties inflicted against an enemy nation affects who they capitulate to which can be useful. Like if you deal the most casualties to germany, you occupy all of their unoccupied land when they capitulate. Whether you occupy something or not significantly affects the cost for that land in peace deals so dealing the most casualties will leave you with some relatively cheap land, which is also more expensive for others, that you can take in the peace deal.
Yeah same here apparently I’m not allowed to take my cores the allies are willing to give me Sardinia and Sicily instead. As a rule of thumb when ever one of my allies hold my core I just tag switch and force them to release them, this includes playing as Canada and tag switching to get Newfoundland back

@@MrLolx2u yes i just explained that they got such a high score because of the casualties. i think you get one point in a peace treaty per 1k casualties. its a shitty way to count war score but thats how its counted. should be rather counted by casualties taken and way more casualties dealt in manpower and equipment
I honestly think that it will be pretty interesting to watch even without classic war and micro. I always enjoyed the Vic2 Streams because they were more about geopolitics and the players arguing over their policies of expansion, war was common but not the main focus in most streams.
Talk about a historic game, the Germans thought they were winning because they could see Moscow but in fact just made a salient that would be their tomb.
This was a fantastic stream to watch live. You could really tell that after the Vitebsk salient nearly got entirely pocketed, Swimmy's spirit kind of broke. No real attempts at any major plays on the Eastern Front after that.
honestly I despise peace conferences. Oh you did crazy plays and barely lost? here have 5th most amount of points, just behind everyone who got their asses kicked.
I just got finished with my first ever barbarossa attempt! I had played as Germany like 4 times but always got afraid of the Soviets and stopped, but this time I actually decided to invade them, and It was time consuming, but not difficult.

Soviet officer: comrade Stalin, the Allies got gains! Stalin: Where? Soviet Officer: In Africa! Stalin: So we carrying the entire War, right? Soviet Officer: yeah, basically.
Soviets: *hard-carries the entire match* Also Soviets: *have a fifth the warscore that the UK has* Honestly, in that regard, setting up puppet-states and glaring down the allies is a fair action.
That's kind of how it irl went down, like you got France who got defeated in their mainland and didn't help Poland, UK who also didn't help Poland, and the U.S who came into Europe late to the party, meanwhile they got pieces of Berlin.
My Integralist Brazil playthrough: **Waits for the Allies have their hands full with Germany* **D-Day's USA, Mexico, Canada, UK, France and Australia with my CAs* **Snipe every single province with light tanks and encircle and kill over 6 million allies* **Tries to form Mega-America* **Germany Puppets the smallest province in the USA* **Italy takes Scotland for some reason* **Japan takes a province in Canada* Brazil: _"Stalin, I need your help with something"_
Epic games as always Bo ! 🤝 the part made me laugh that they complained you got the whole tank corp encircled and yet they got their asses kicked for the next years by axis lmao😂
I would love it if there was a game where the USSR, German Reich, and Italy all had two players. One player is in charge of the regular military and the other is in charge of the political party's personal troops. So for Germany, someone plays Blomberg and someone else plays Himmler. And they have to coordinate their troops effectively. So the NKVD divisions, the SS, and the Italian Blackshirts all have their own players, and the other player can't stop them from recruiting them, can't divert resources from them, and can't take direct command of them.
Saw that encirclement and looked at the time and it was 4:30 in the video and I was so confused as to how the video could last 11 minutes. Then you panned out and it was obvious. Given that I've never actually played hoi mp I don't know how hard it is but it feels like the allies shouldn't have just collapsed like that lol
