Alrighty, lemme know when you add it It's hard to find historical numbers, but looking at the army of Romania, I'd say 200 fighters and 100 bombers is fair(?). Sounds good  |

Only for Kliment Jefremovitš Vorošilov and Darth Nihilus To French and Polish ambassadors So, there is an Austria-Hungary wanting to learn Romania's army's size (since Romania can't attack it, it must be wanting to attack Romania), and an ongoing flood of floods (lol) of secret communication between you two and them more than 4 pages. May I ask the meaning of this, dear gentlemen? The Soviet Union is disturbed because of the these going on without informing us, and disappointed because of this behaviour, in other words, why are we allies if we will not cooporate? We do not believe that you have a bad intention, however, as allies, we are disappointed that we are not included in these affairs (especially which interest us most with Poland, because seemingly about Romania and Eastern Europe or Balkans, or them all at the same time perhaps, who knows) and since we are the most powerful country in Eastern Europe and one of the first 3 or 4 strongest powers in the world (depends on the criteria), and that's our most natural right, and we don't even mention the natural right that being allies provides. We are sorry if we sound mean, but we merely wanted to kindly state our discomfort about this issue, and we sincerely believe that we will not have such problems in the future again, and you will understand us. Do not think that we don't trust you, but try to emphatise with our situation: we don't know what you are doing, and if we knew then we wouldn't intervene or ask, but the only way for us to know what you are doing is that you to inform us, so this is the direct consequence of lack of communication. And Just like a paradox or vicious circle. Lack of communication is one of the biggest enemies of victory, both in small scale like battles and the big scale like diplomacy, as history shows. There are even examples that one country's army kills its own soldiers because of problems in communication, like Battle of Karansebes. We believe that you will understand the importance of this issue. Because if we are to help you (which is crystal clear because of our behaviour) and if you are to help us (which is again crystal clear because of your behaviour, we trust you), we should all inform each other about our plans as long as there is a special reason that will benefit all of us. So, this serious/concerning and disturbing tirade aside  , we will want to learn what's going on, please, hoping that the reason is the reason that we guessed. Again we are sorry if we sounded mean, but we are sure that you will understand us, and I would like to confirm you that we will respect your reason too, and if the reason is about us, we will do whatever is necessary to solve that problem. After all, we are allies and should remain allies no matter what. This is our difference from our enemies: we base our cause on humanity, logic and reason, no matter what our ideologies or differences are. We unite whilst our enemies divide. We have already learnt to put our differences aside and that is what our difference from them is. We are beyond such things, and it is our duty to defend the world against those fascists. It is our duty to protect the humanity against them. Because we are the allies, and this is what we do, and shall do forever, until and beyond the infinity and everything, no matter what happens, no matter how hopeless the situation may seem in the future (which will never be, I believe), and this is what we do, and what we shall always do. Only for Eugene V. Debs and Darth NihilusFrance can assure the Soviet Union that none of the diplomatic discourse it has had with Austria is in anyway against the interests of the Soviet Union nor is it in any way threatening to violate good relations between our countries.
The matter of discussion has been Czechoslovakia. Knowing France had previously guaranteed Czechoslovakia's independence the monarch of Austria-Hungary contacted France with the request of annexing Czechoslovakia - by force if necessary.
We stated that any act of aggression against Czechoslovakia would be considered equally hostile to France and war with them would mean war with us. Following this, their Majesty ordered the militarisation of our border with Germany. Following this, we delivered an ultimatum. Fortunately, Austria agreed to remove all, but a single army from the border. An agreement regarding Czechoslovakia has however not been reached.
As for Poland, I believe Austria has suggested a joint invasion of Romania. I believe Poland has accepted this. For me, it is okay as long as Austria only take Transylvania (which they seem to want), for this could help contain their aggressive expansion. Only for Kliment Jefremovitš Vorošilov and Darth NihilusAll right, thank you for explaining.
As for Romania, does this mean that we can invade the rest of it while they are invading Transylvania, and thus dividing the Romanian army for us? Because this would give us the advantage of Carpathian mountains, which would serve as a natural defensive line that will reduce the chance of an attack and even if it happens then it would give us a defensive advantage, as well as serving as a frontier to keep potential threats away from our mainland, which would help us concentrate elsewhere. |

I begin construction of the Austro-Hungarian railroad. It will connect all of the country and drastically reduce travel time. Due to it being a Civilian project it will take 7 pages, but won't require work from the army.
I also begin research on anti-air guns, which will take 4 pages. Once finished I can make factories produce 45 AA per page. They reduce the bonus given to CAS, and can only be taken out by strategic bombing or a designated charge by the enemy, however said charge will give less casualties to enemy Infantry while still receiving the same amount of casualties yourself.

To start my invasion of Romania, I begin with an all out air blitz on their fighters in an attempt to gain complete air superiority.
Due to my number of fighters I get a +3 outnumber bonus.

Yooo, I just had a brain blast moment. So like, a way we could give a bonus to guns and tanks is by counterbalancing them. Let's say that Guns and CAS, will provide a +1 bonus to general combat, while Tanks provide +2 However, guns can be targeted by bombers, and the bombers have a +3 against guns. Guns can target tanks with a +3 bonus Anti Air can target both bombers and fighters with a +3 bonus, but has a -2 when attacked by anything. These bonuses are all assuming you have the superior numbers. If tanks are 2-1 the bonus drops to a +1, and anything under that negates the bonus. Anything less than 2-1 guns also negates the bonus. You have to have .5 the number of bombers compared to both the enemies AA and fighters. When it comes to fighter combat it acts the same as Infantry, with the outnumbered bonuses being the same as well. Fighters also get a +2 against bombers since they have very few, if any, Air to air armaments. AA maintains its bonus regardless of numbers, due to it being a specialized unit that's ineffective against anything else. What do you think Kliment Jefremovitš Vorošilov? It provides a nice bonus against weaker countries, while not changing the playing field too much between the players. It has the added bonus in adding tactical combat, with there being benefits to targeting certain units in order to decrease them enough to gain the bonuses. |

Only for Eugene V. Debs , Kliment Jefremovitš Vorošilov Indeed, the Romanians will find it extremely hard to defend on both fronts, and as I have Austria's assurance that they will stay within the realm of Transylvania, we have already created future annexation zones. Romania will be split somewhat like this: 
Green: Austria Blue and Red: Original Polish and Soviet borders Purple: Joint Allied annexation zone The joint occupation territory will probably depend on our individual performances in the invasion, but all I really need is a northern sector plus a port on the Black Sea. |

This is the current battle map of Romania:  Red represents the army (dispersed evenly Cyan represents the tanks (a-c in the north, d-j in the south) Green represents the artillery, a safe distance away from the fight. I make a normal attack in the north, in hopes of weakening the troops stationed there mVyvdV07And an all out attack in the south, with hopes to route ··· |

While Romania's airforce is preoccupied with defending against Austria, we launch a massive air strike using 300 fighters and 73 bombers against Romanian airfields. Many aircraft are destroyed before they can even lift off.
Bombing raid:

Disregarding the third die, it seems we were unable to use the surprise attack to as much of an advantage as we could. With an ambush factor, the enemy's defense bonus is negated, and with our air superiority we achieve a draw.
Planes lost: 30 on each side.
To reinforce Army Group South, replenishments will be sent from our reserve units. This round: 17 fighters, 13 bombers

With my +4 bonus the northern attack does %12 percent casualties, and the southern attack does %60 casualties. Assuming the Romanians split their army into two, with the main force being towards the south (due to more of my tanks being stationed their, I'd say they have 500,000 stationed in the south and 300,000 in the North)
this leaves 264,000 in the north, and 200,000 in the south, with a total of 464,000.
Austro-Hungarian casualties
Infantry casualties: 240,000; 2,160,000 left
Northern Panzer casualties: 7; 338 left
Southern Panzer casualties: 35; 655 left
the south was also completely routed, allowing me to flank the enemy. I will now be attempting a complete encirclement (needs at least a 6 to be successful.)

The attack was a major success! Transylvania is now completely surrounded.
Romanian casualties are: 55,000; leaving them with 145,000
Austro-Hungarian casualties are:
Southern infantry: 86,400 leaving us with 993,600 in the south
Southern panzers: 52, leaving us with 603 panzers
264,000 troops are encircled in the Transylvanian region. the 145,000 left Un-encircled are too demoralized to keep fighting

As a concept, I think it's definitely worth trying. I'd have the bonuses a bit lower however. Maybe 0.5 and 1, since incading non player countries is also a bit too easy. |
