Paradox AAR - Saga of the Slavs

[SilverLeaf167]

I do think the odds are in your favor in this conflict. The major players on your side are all adjacent to each other, while the Latins and Russians are basically fighting in isolation. And even if the other side does have the ability to even out that numerical disadvantage, doing so would take time - time they might not have, given how outnumbered they are.

I mean, yeah, that seems like the most likely possibility to me too, but I have to at least keep acting like it's not one-sided. Then again, guess you could also say that the real-life world wars were decided from the start, but that didn't stop them from being horrible nonetheless.
The real question is how many great wars we're going to have before we even reach HoI4.

My first thought when I read this was "This is going to cause problems at some point." If the war doesn't go well, I imagine the PUP is going to harp on this point in order to try and deflect the blame off themselves.

I notice that my first reflex when something like this is pointed out tends to be to act coy like I'd planned it all along, but every now and then (such as now) I have to give credit for noticing an angle I didn't actually think of!

Edit: Also, in an amusing coincidence, the other Poland megacampaign AAR I'm following also posted an update today in which a socialist party comes to power and the first Great War begins.

Hah, that really is a big coincidence. I didn't even know that AAR existed, I'll probably check it out!
