Before anybody wants to make a "deal" about Poland, you'll have to defeat 1.3 millions Polish soldiers fighting for the very existance of their nation, and their families and childrens' survival.

After that you'll have to fight another 35 million Poles, because every Pole, no matter what age, how old, what gender, wearing a uniform or not will fight to the last breath against all aggressors.

But maybe we'll find a political solution without complete unnecessary bloodshed.

According to the USSR propaganda of the time every war USSR went into was justified because it wass decided by the big righteous one, Stalin. And thus every war USSR decides to enter is necessary.



Now, which will it be...Shall I send Molotov or the Red Army to Poland...



Nah, to be serious. This should be interesting to see who makes a deal with whom...

One "cold war" period joke came to my mind:

A Finn was asked if he could declare war against some country what would it be?

He answered: China!

He was asked again what would be another country he would start war with?

The answer: China!

No why is it China twice was the man asked?

Because on their way to attack Finland theyīd have to fight through Russia four times....

Mahross, Switzerland can be pretty cold, how would you like a nice warm chunk of Africa?

Thats a good one Kai, sounds about right. It occurs to me that you guys had better make my life as easy as possible, otherwise this game will last five minutes .

If Stefan cannot make a deal with me he wonīt attack in the west. Then again, if he makes a deal with France and Britain he can attack me...

Looks like a lot of flying for Molotov in the early rounds...

And both ways you'll have to deal with my country before, politically or militarically [img]tongue.gif[/img]

AndyW,

If Germany makes a deal in the west and decides to go east ( 100% sure they will) I guess itīd be in my interest to give guns, ammunition etc to Poland. But then again, would Stalin in true life have done it? Thatīs a dilemma of the highest degree....

Itīd in my interest as well though to keep the battles on Polish ground as well.Hmmmm I could send the Russian university students to Poland and get rid of one group of my enemies as well...

I am a genius, I am going to make Germany neutral, that way if anyone wants to have any fun you will have to invade me which will justify my crusade and will get the neutral nations on my side. Hows that?

Boys, its great to see the diplomats discussing everything so nicely.

Zealot, if you wanna country, how about Greece? or Norway?

Anyway guys just a quick note to say that I will be trying to get the packs ready and to you asap. I will not be on the forums this week as I have to visit my dad, as he is ill with lung cancer and I best see him.

Really looking forward to this war, its gonna be fun. You will be recieving some detailed stuff, just seen the stuff Mahross has done on Hungary so its all looking good.

If you want any info and I dont reply ask Mahross, me and him are meeting up on sunday to gat stuff done.

Its war, but not as we know it...

Sorry to hear that Baron, our hopes are with him.

Quick question, can we come up with a story for how we came to power? A little scene setting so that members know a little about each other and how they can be expected to act etc?

My hopes and prayers are with your father Red Baron.

Stefan I think that is a great idea.

I reckon that we should all write a brief synopsis of who our characters are and how they came to power, it should fit in with history up to the point at which our character took power after which it can be however we want it to happen.
