RE: Fall Weiss II
Does anyone know - can I use the boardgame map mod with this scenario? Thanks.
RE: Fall Weiss II
I have a question regarding Spain. There are many decision events that would move Spain closer to the Axis camp. Will they eventually bring Spain to war or is it still necessary to invest in the diplomacy, to gain the final pro Axis % ?
Also, is there any campaign guide or a list of the FWII decision events?

RE: Fall Weiss II
Hi
In answer to the second question first, there is a strategy guide for every campaign and it can be accessed in-game from one of the buttons on the top right of the screen, as can the Manual itself.
As for Spain, some diplomacy by the Axis will almost certainly be needed, as DE 603 where Germany can entice Franco to enter the war will only fire if Spain has a pro-Axis leaning of 60% when Germany seizes Algiers and Rabat.

All,
Try as I might as the Germans I have been unable to get Spain to 60% against a Brit who counters. Is this just bad luck on my part or is there some trick to getting Spain in the Axis camp?

Hi Bill,
I think you're referring to the stock campaigns. I'm playing Fall Weiss II and there are some new events. The diplomacy chits are supposed to have smaller impact too. There's no campaign guide for this mod as far as I know. Currently I have Spain at 69% pro Axis leaning and I don't know if there'll be more events or should I start investing in the diplomacy.

RE: Fall Weiss II
Another thing - in Fall Weiss - France is able to build a tank army from the very beginning of the war, much earlier than the other nations. Is this correct?
Similarly - USSR can build one tank army from the very start. Historically it was from 1942, also 6 of them were fielded during WW2.

Ah of course, I opened up all the threads that had new posts and just read your question without realising it referred to Fall Weiss II. Sorry for misleading you there, and hopefully the designer or those more familiar with it will have an answer for you soon. [:)]

Hi Ivanov, the events and diplomatic chits are meant to be used in unison, as much of the diplomatic events are. It will be very difficult to have Spain join the war with only chits, and most likely not possible with the events alone.

It must be bad luck as there should always be a window between French surrender and USA joining where the Axis will be able to invest more then Britain alone.

I'm not sure it is really an issue, as both nations had lots of tanks and the player will have to go out of their way to spend MPP for a different OOB.

Thanks for the info. It's October 1940 in my game, Spain is around 70% pro Axis, I've just accepted the military aid to Spain event. Portugal is on the side of the British, so that helped a lot. I'm wondering if there'll be any adicional Spanish event? Is there any documentation, where I can find all the FWII event list?

I'm just pointing this out for the historial reasons. The French had a lot of tanks, but didn't use them in mass as the Germans did. The Soviet had thousands of tanks, but they were able to field the first real tank army in 1942. Sure they had the massive ( and incomplete ) mechanized corps in 1941, however they were completely inefficient and evaporated during the first days of the fighting. When Soviets join the war, they are already automatically provided with those mechanized corps on the border. For those reasons, I would prefer to see the French tank armies locked until later years of the war and the six Soviet armies until 1942. They could receive some as free reinforcements. Of course that's only a suggestion for the realism sake.

Sending military equipment to Spain is usually the final one, and that is why it is recommended to only accept if Spain is heavily leaning towards the Axis, as now you will have to rely on diplomacy. There are still a few decision events that can sway Spain up or down, including the acceptance of the Blue Division (post USSR war) and the UK DE of how to react if Spain send's the Blue Division to the Eastern Front but you are mainly rolling the dice now [8D]

Thanks for the info Crispy. For now my opponent threw the towel after the Germans managed to pull off successful landings in the UK. Now I have to convince him to continue the game, so I can bring Spain to the Axis camp

If you need an opponent for another game, I haven’t played for a few months and would be up for one.

Sounds good! I'd prefer to play as the Allies, since last few games I played as Axis.
