      36' was the perfect compromise, 39 was too late for significant RP and 33 is too boring for people that just wanna war. they abandoned 39' because it just wasnt worth the extra resources there is no doubt they would do the same for a 33 start date. Also they avoid the holocaust and other crimes committed by the axis states as much as possible so Kristallnacht and other early nazi crimes would be harder to glance over if they extended the timeline to include more just event and buildup time.
      also the most likely reason they would have to massively rebalance build up times, a full 6 years of buildup without massive unfun debuffs would turn every major into a super power by 39

    If Paradox ever does release a HOI5, I hope they add toggles for certain features for ease of play. Like, being able to use a complicated economy system or just civs, mils and dockyards. Being able to turn off advanced politics and go back to more simplistic settings. The advantage would be that people could learn one feature at a time without getting overwhelmed.

    There's no way Sea Lion could have succeeded Historically because Nazi Germany had insufficient access to barges/ cargo ships from it's conquests of Continental Europe to supply major ground offensives across the channel even had the Luftwaffe established Air Superiority over the English Channel. At most British high command was worried about small Commando style raids or at most a Light Infantry Division being rushed across the Channel where the eventual counter attack would drive it to surrender.

Overall I really like how they handle run the campaign, although I think the player should have a more active role in balancing the different factions, this seems extremely promising and I hope they succeed.

    "Couldn't Hindenburg have saved Germany by picking a more liberal candidate?"
    No, he couldn't have. Realistically, by the point Hindenburg appointed Hitler, it was very clear that one type of extremism was going to take over the country eventually. Effectively, Hindenburg had the choice between the country being turned into a fascist or into a communist dictatorship. Had he tried to appoint another, more liberal candidate, chances are one of the extremist parties would've gained a Reichstag majority in the next election and been able to completely disable the presidential system altogether. Hindenburg figured that it was probably a better option to "voluntarily" allow Hitler to participate in the government, thinking that he and Papen could "contain" him and thus minimize the damage he was doing while simultaneously preventing a communist takeover.
    People like to shit on Hindenburg a lot nowadays, but if you only look at his decision from his point of view, it was actually relatively reasonable. The fascists seemed to be a far smaller danger than the communists to the German culture and people (and they probably WERE, a stalinist dictatorship would've been even worse for the average Max Mustermann) and Hitler seemed to respect Hindenburg and the "old order" (so everything before the Weimar Republic) enough to cooperate with them. The only mistake Hindenburg made was to vastly underestimate Hitler's competency.

    I'm glad you pointed out something. There were 3 criteria that lead to the third German Reich's fall. 1 was the failure to force British Surrender; since they refused to surrender, and won the Battle of Britain, the Germans would have to split their resources and soon be low on fuel. The second was opening a 2nd front against the Soviets; with the first criteria met, the Soviet war meant that Germany had to split its resources and thus make it easier on the British. The third, and the one you called out, was the United States entering the war; the United States, with a nearly unaffected industry and infrastructure, was able to out-produce, outman, and out-gun the Germans. Even if the Soviets fell, and so too the British, the Americans, with the distance away they were from the Germans, could only be stopped if the Germans got the BOMB. Then it would be a Cold War between the Germans and the Americans, much like the Cold War between the Americans, and the Soviets. But you managed to knock out the British, by securing full Naval Superiority, then focus on the Soviets, who without a second front were easier to force into a peace deal, and since you never allied with Japan (you allied with China which is funny), kept yourself out of a war with the U.S. So good job. Also, Nice sensor job (you only did it like twice)

Einstein was undoubtedly a genius, so perhaps the fact that he was a communist should tell you something.. like, one of the smartest people in history knew the ideology was far superior to Capitalism.. and to combat the intellectual losses of that generation Capitalisms ugly side presented itself as Fascism/Nazism/Imperialism in order to discriminate against, execute, invade and destroy anything that resembled Communism.
      And once the USSR clapped back and the CPC stabilized China, the Capitalist nations couldn't hide their intentions so we were left with a Cold War, decades of proxy wars from the Imperial Core, and the status of geopolitics is no better now than it was in 1950.

    I love how they made it so you can actually support China in this mod, since historically Germany was actually Pro-China for quite a long time, the famous German trained and equipped Divisions of China performed very well against the Japanese and inflicted heavy casualties, and even refused to surrender in true German fashion. But in the end, Hitler realized that if he wanted any chance to win he needed Japan's vast Navy so he swapped support later on. It would have been very interesting to see what would happen if Hitler continued German support for China instead of Japan, because FDR hated the Imperial Japanese and truth be told, is kinda a major reason why Japan attacked America in the first place with his embargoing of them, despite not embargoing Italy or Britain or France whenever they had Imperialist wars. Would Japan swallow their pride and try to become friendly with the Soviets? Would they realign with the British therefore alienating America from the Allies? There's so many possibilities and I think that's super interesting.

First, in 1894 Italy invaded Ethiopia. And Italy lost. Obviously, it was a huge humiliation for Italy. So Mussolini wanted to show people that this time is gonna be different. Second Ethiopia was one of the few countries in Africa that were independent. So Mussolini thought it's gonna be easy to win(But it wasn't tho lmao). Third Italy has colonies in Eritrea and Somaliland. And there was Ethiopia in between them. Mussolini wanted to connect those colonies through Ethiopia.
