Raisin Bran's Hearts of Iron 2 Sucession AAR
Hearts of Iron 2 Vanilla 1.3a patched (http://www.heartsofiron2.com/)


This is it boys. The Mother of all AAR's.
Simple Rules.

Sucession rules.
A Hearts of Iron 2 (Vanilla 1.3a) scenario will be started.
Each player will be appointed a nation randomly.
We each play a turn, save the game, zip it and post it for the next player to play.
Each turn will be 2 weeks (15 days) in-game.

AAR rules
Each player must post a screenshot every so often and a short story of the hapenings of his nation.
This is intended to be funny and light, funny trash talking is allowed and encouraged.
Each player can have his own "Counsil of doom" consisting of players who don't own the game.
Let your imagination run wild. :)

Notes: Each time you save your game the AI takes over for your nation. This is sorta crappy because the AI often acts stupid. This will affect each player equally so no complaining, remember this is for fun. :)


The player and consular list is in post #2
To suscribe you need Hearts of Iron 2 Vanilla 1.3a patched and the will to play a turn whenever its your turn. (my estimate: once a weeks tops if all players work fast).

Its time!

This AAR needs you!

I'd be game for this.

Kan' Sharuminar
Jan 28, 2007, 06:52 AM
I'm game, though I've already given my complaints to you about what the AI will do when it's in control of a nation. Also, something I never thought of before is that I think most people here own Doomsday, not HoI2 vanilla. I'm willing to purchase the game is it turns out we need to encourage more activity :)

One suggestion, make sure that you switch 'auto-assign' and 'auto-promote' off, if you haven't already. This may help when it comes to the AI throwing generals about.


Each player will be appointed a nation randomly.

I take it you mean a major-secondary nation randomly. That said, I could probably write a helluva AAR with Haiti :mischief:

We need to decide on a Scenario.

1939 would be the best. 1936 would be too annoying (especially with the AI countering your orders), and 1941 puts some nations (USSR) at a huge disadvantage. Best to ease into war slowly :)

Each player can have his own "Counsil of doom" consisting of players who don't own the game.

I'm afraid I have the patented Council of Doom :smug: I am willing to wage war over it ;)

well.... I can only hope I get Amerika! :p

do you vanilla guys not get a 1938 scenario?

We do indeed, came with the very first patch, IIRC. Ah, memories.

1938 does bring some advantages - it's not too far from the war, but far enough to get plans in gear. Most countries have all had their pre-war events (starts just before the Munich crisis) as well :)

Captain2
Jan 28, 2007, 08:09 AM
yeah... well this wouldnt be too bad if it works for me, i was forced to abandon my american AAR due to 20 minute load times...

even at that it was going very slowly during the game

Kan' Sharuminar
Jan 28, 2007, 08:16 AM
Okay, I did a little test and the results aren't exactly promising. Played two weeks as Germany in 1938, switched to USA for the next two, then switched back.

When it comes to production, the AI seems happy to stick with what you ordered. However, due to the fact the AI gets bonus', it was able to start building additional units (ships, AA batteries etc) - players should remember to cancel these everytime they load up their country :p

The big problem was the fact that when I came back, the armies were shifting all over the place. Some were off to Poland, some that were assigned to guard against France were marching north. This could be simply because it's peace-time, but if it does this during war, it will make it exceptionally frustrating for when a player reloads their nation. Will test it during a war period later - also want to see what it does to pre-assigned generals and technology :)

Raisin Bran
Jan 28, 2007, 08:33 AM
Thanks Kan for all that testing. Much appreciated.

1938 Scenario seem fine with me.

Yes we will choose major Nations, Randomly.

And ill fight over the counsil of doom anyday :p

You know what .... I think we should leave what the AI does as is. Exept for generals and troop placement. It could be a fun game and add a lot to the AAR writings, since the AI will tamper with all the nations involved.

I still need feedback and players. :)

Goodluck! I'll definately be following along reading.

Also it's encouraged not incouraged.

You have been appointed to the Available Consulars section ... see post #2

I would agree, and I would think that even in wartime the AI won't move the troops around that much from where you want them. But to make it easier I would say start from the 1939 scenario - would be simply pointless having the peacetime year to set up forces for an invasion, only for them to have been sent to the opposite side of the country :lol:

Captain2
Jan 28, 2007, 10:42 AM
well the extra year could still be useful for production purposes....

of course the earlier the scenario, the more likely it will turn in my favor, recently had a 1936 game, conquered all of eastern europe as the soviet union by 1939, including Germany and Italy ;)

Volum

I could be in for this... I got both Doomsday and Vanilla installed for some reason. I also vote that we dont change production the AI does, only movements

I also vote that we dont change production the AI does, only movements

As I said, the AI didn't change any production I made, but added a bunch of stuff because (I believe) they get production bonus'. As such, when the player comes back they're going to find it difficult to keep the production sliders in the black. Otherwise I would agree that sounds fun :)

That would be nice indeed! I really don't know anything about multi-playering with HoI2.. If we could save and load it back up each time the session is over it could work out great.

only thing is the logistics of a game like this. Getting all players at the same time is kinda hard. But the idea is great and ill look into that later. Maybe Kan knows how the game works with MP.

With ''The Omega'' here I think we have enough players to start-up a game.

all we need is the voting session to end.

Its now 2 votes for 1939 and 2 vote for 1938.
Im stopping this poll tomorrow (07-01-30) at 21:00h (9:00pm) Eastern time (Canada, Montreal)
So please people cast your votes promptly.
Everybody involved here can cast a vote (players and consulars)

also I listed The Omega as a player.

edit.: post 1 and 2 edited. I listed nations that would be fun to play. There are more nations than players. :)

Haven't a clue, I'm afraid. I would assume it's as simple as loading up the game and having people joining as their own nation, but that's just guessing. Would be nice to set aside an hour on the weekend for a proper session too, though the whole 'everyone bar myself, Noncon and Volum being in a stupid timezone' might be annoying :mischief:

Kan Churchill reporting for King and Country! :salute:

Quick thing: IIRC HoI2's 'months' are each exactly 30 days each. Instead of an exact two-week turn, would it not be easier to play 15 days each, so each player is always starting on the 1st/16th, and ending on the 15th/30th :)

Raisin Bran
Jan 31, 2007, 11:28 AM

I like this plan.

Is it possible to simply not play any time at all? Keep the game paused but make your moves and pass it on, so that technically the first person to play his two weeks still has the full turn?

Dear Volum, Kan, and Raisin Bran,

It has come to my attention that, probably due to a mistake on the mapmakers part, you are all under the misconception that you control vast tracks of land that are in fact rightful Japanese lands. These include, and are not limited to, India, Siberia, Southeast Asia, all those islands in the Pacific, Australia, New Zealand, the Middle East, Africa, Canada, Alaska, and everything west of the Rockies. We respectfully ask that you correct the mistakes on your maps, and turn over all above mentioned land to Japanese supervising.

Dear Omega

India has been under rightful British rule for many a decade now, and we would like you to remember that Japan never uttered a word against our rule there as we fought - brothers and sisters - together during the Great War. We understand the regime change in Japan, and I am sure you understand our concerns over the continuing Sino-Japanese War, which we see as a destabilising situation in the region. Be aware we will always assist in preserving the peace there.

However, with this in mind, Britain shall always stand alongside President Volum and the American people in their stance against you. We trust an amicable solution can be found, though we believe it is truly up to you to make the first move.

~Prime Minister Kan

I think it's best. It's sort of a compromise - two weeks gives time to do something, but not enough time that really hurts other players. A month each would mean each player would miss half a year of playing. And I suggested the 15 day turns simply to make it easier. Now all players end on the 15th/30th and begin on the 1st/16th.

I think I recall a HoI AAR where two players did something like this. One was Germany, one was Russia, and they played a month each. It was quite amusing to see their reactions when they rejoined after leaving their forces to the AI. A warcrime in my opinion ;)

Office of the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and the British Empire


The past few months had been desperately bleak for Britain. The German anschluss of Austria had sparked a crisis of faith in not just the Prime Minister, but the entire government. Was Britain willing - let alone able - to take on the threat emerging on the European continent?

Compromise was made. Chamberlain decided to stand down from office, but not before a successor was announced. Would it be the valiant Churchill? The enigmatic Halifax? Alas, it was the quiet underdog (as is so popular in the UK) who won the race - Kan’ Sharuminar. Handsome, witty, a damn fine man and staunch supporter of all things British (this, of course, includes the United States and the Commonwealth nations) and hater of all things non-British (including those damn dastardly deutschlanders, and those stinking side-swiping Soviets.)

He took office in the middle of 1938 after a long and bitter war of popularity with his own nation. His war was only just beginning…

after news of the German annexation of Austria, Italy became worried due to the loss of its buffer zone, in a speech delivered by Captain to the residents of Rome

"People of Italy, today our great nations stands at a cross roads, either we will rise to become the greatest nation ever or we will be consumed by the fires of our enemies, the difference will lay upon the shoulders of every single one of you. remember, The Roman empire is not dead, it will live agian!"

REMEMBER: Turns must be 15 days. from september 1st 1938 to september 15th 1938, from september 15th 1938 to september 30th 1938 and so on.

A first Report would be great for all nations after doing your first turn. It will give flavor to the game.

October 15th 1938

Real Facts :

After the Anschluss in March 1938, Germany is growing stronger. The Nazis are to be feared, France and Britain will soon be incapable of containing them.

Hitler Demanded the Sudetenland be given back to the German Reich. What will France and Britain do ? Are we going to see some Backbone from them or will they crumble under Hitler's power?

Commrades! Today is a great Day for Mother Russia and all its citizens.

The Bolsheviks will now have a new Leader. He is reconized all over the Motherland as the Gardener of Human Happiness, the Father of Nations, the Brilliant Genius of Humanity and most importantly he is the Great Architect of Communism.
Josef Stalin is our glorious leader, he will lead Mother Russia to the promised lands and make life better for all the mighty Russian empire.
http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n212/raisinbran1/AAR1.jpg

Already A active member of the Interior Joseph Stalin proved to the people of Russia that Communism is the future, From the mountains of the Caucausus where he was tought by Lenin Himself the importance of pleasing the citizens, he made his way up the commie ladder. He is a example to follow for all commrades of the Russian empire. A Mighty soldier who showed his love for the Motherland on the Battlefield.
http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n212/raisinbran1/poster-06.jpg

The Interior Central Control Also announces StickCivovish as Minister of foreign affairs and Primary Purging Officer. He is affected to the Interior Central control in Stalinbran.

News could not be better citizens. In all the Russian empire, the industry is producing many goods and the lands are prosperous. Other Nations are requesting to Join the Russian empire like Lativia and Finland. Soon our armies will peacefully march in these lands.

http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n212/raisinbran1/industry.jpg
Our fine army is the mightiest army in the world. State of the art equipment and best offensive doctrines. The might of Russian army is feared all over Europe. While the Europeans are busy fighting each other we Russians will paint the world Red with Communism.

Commrades of Russia, Follow in Stalin's footsteps do it For The Motherland!

Glorious Stalin did no such thing! You cannot be seriously thinking that a man of his stature would swoop to such a low level and do such a vile, and disgusting thing as you propose! And the currency he is holding cannot be real. There are no American dollars on Russian soil, I can assure you of that, for anyone found with them was found guilty of high treason, and personally executed by me!

Is this the best your propaganda agencies can do? Then surely there must be some incompetent people there. Follow in our footsteps, and purge those who oppose.
