- Italian soldiers in Vienna, Austria

A hard era:

2054! The beginning of a hard era. Germany, without any reason, declared war on Italy. Italy , being a neutral nation in this new cold war, didnt had any allies, so the Germans didnt even bothered to find a reason to explain the war. They just attacked. The German air force, with the help of the Scandinavian Air Force destroyed the entire Italian Air Force. But the Italian people couldn't let the Germans take over their nation, and kill their families. This was their home, and they had to defend it. So the march begun.

Defense of Italy:

Soon, the Italian army gathered at the borders and started a desperate defense against the superior, both in numbers and technology, German army.

Document from soldier in the German front:

<< My name is Vianco. I fought in the war as a general. I ordered all soldiers to stay in position, and then i said << Italians!! Today we have to defend our nation!! Today we have to defend our homes!! Today we have to defend our families!! Today we have to win!!>>. So we started firing on the enemy soldiers that attacked us. Then we throw grenades blowing up the German scums. Finally we created a trap, and we had poison gas fill the air, and kill 150 Germans.>>

For many hours the Italians fought, for their nation. The president himself went to the front and said to his troopers << Fight for the nation!! Fight for democracy!!>>. The Italian army destroyed the German invaders. Not only that, but they started push the enemy back to Germany. This time the Italians were the invaders. Their goal: Take over Germany and enforce a total peace.

Marching on Berlin:

So the Italian, managed not only to push back the invaders, but counterattack in their homeland. The Italians, led by their thirst for revenge, and nationalist dreams of re-creating the Roman empire, started to march on Berlin. At first they took over Croatia, after 7 hours of battle. Croatian nationalists, and the people in general, were very happy to be free from German oppression, especially after the promise of the Italian president for full independence after the war. The Croatians nationalists joined this << Croatian War of Independence >> and helped the Italians. So now an Italian-Croatian army marched on Vienna, and after 43 hours of battle in the streets of the city, Austria was placed under Italian occupation, and was to be fully annexed in Italy. Finally the Italians had the upper hand. From a desperate defense to protect their homeland, they were now in a campaign to create an empire and take revenge. Everyone wanted to attack and burn Berlin. Once the Italian-Croatian- Austrian army marched into Switzerland, the governor of the area surrender without a fight. But the German army was still stronger and larger, while the Italian weakened from all those battles, and with a a few troopers remaining. The army needed rest, but there was no time. The re-creation of the Roman empire came first. So the multinational army prepared for marching against Berlin. But the causalities were huge, with more than 20,000 dead soldiers.
 
Question regarding clients: should I have them increase income of the master state for every territory the clients have divided by two( rounded down, at least 1)?
 
Um, please automate me for this turn as well. I don't have time to do orders today, but I will do orders hereafter. Still trying to figure out some of the rules and such.
 
Well, locked.

Question regarding clients: should I have them increase income of the master state for every territory the clients have divided by two( rounded down, at least 1)?

I'd still like an opinion on this.
 
Sure.
 
I feel like I'm too biased to give an answer.
 
Update II-2055
------------The German-Italian War------------​
Over the past year, the Germans pushed the Italians back with a vengeance. Italian troops were hit hard by the German offensive. Bombing runs cut the army down so much, the initial army that outnumbered the Germans were now outnumbered themselves. In a pivotal battle of Austria, the Italian line broke. Many Italian divisions were demolished. Only taking three wings, one Scandinavian and two German, with them. Germany has retaken Austria, Switzerland, and Croatia.

------------A Hegemony Rises------------​
The United States have established a Hegemony around the globe. All of the Northern Western Hemisphere is under their domain, and some southern parts are under American control as well. Even further, islands off the coast of West Africa, Oceania, and the non-Chinese,-occupied Southeast Asia are in the American sphere.

------------The Winter Olympics------------​
Out of the six participating countries, only one can be victorious. Scandinavia has come up on top.

------------Italian Leadership Faces Global Infamy------------​
Even though Germany sparked war for no reason, the Italians have given themselves a mark. Use of chemical warfare to clear a bunker has been discovered. The damning evidence is clear. No comments on the matter have been officially made by any nation yet.

------------Zion has Usurped Libya and Egypt------------​
The Zionist government have made very progressive efforts in to making Egypt and Libya peacefully under direct Zionist jurisdiction. Egypt and Libya are now integral parts of Zion.

The Unclaimed
The unclaimed grey-green provinces are essentially minor countries ranging in size. You can do three things with these.
-SOI them. This costs 3x, x being their size. You can count on their size being their modern borders today-granted parts of them haven&#8217;t already been annexed.
-Diplo-annex them. This costs the amount of provinces they have. You can only do this to a nation whom you SOI.
-Annex them. This is militarily invading them. However, one or two armies won&#8217;t cut it. You&#8217;ll be facing an entire people not wanting to give up independence. You would be facing at least ten armies, navies, and air wings. They can and will counter-invade if you fail your attack.

*Rule addition*
Absorbing Satellites also gives you an Industrial boost equal to 2 times their province number; due to this absorbing costs 4x now, x being the amount of provinces.
 
So, if something is just grey, it would cost 4 Income?
 
In a nutshell:
SoIing: 3 per province
Diplo-annexing: 4 per province, can only be done to those in SoI
Annexing: just attack, at your own risk.
 
4 income to diplo-annex, 3 income to SOI; you can only diplo-annex nations in your SOI.

Edit: Ninja'd
 
Also, protip. It is more profitable to wait a few turns maintaining a client and diplo annex them later. They pay themselves off faster this way.
