Quick questions HOI4 version: Current Kaiserreich version: Current

What happened So RUS remains as with the previous RUS playthroughs the most fun and versatile nation in the game.

This time instead of trying a SOV run, or a monarchist one, I did a Republican Victor Chernov one. I especially liked this since I'm reading a book right now on the Socialist Revolutionaries in Russia.

Overall it was very fun, got a great start since GER did not oppose me in the Caucasus. Got some allies quick with SER, BUL, and ROM in the Balkans. Ran a war from 1938-1940 to beat the AUS and their vassals giving me a huge flank to eventually crush GER.

After crushing GER with minimal casualties, I spent a few years mopping up the Entente which declared war on me (more on that below) before the final showdown with the Syndicalists. They started that war with FRA using the focus to turn the Danube red.

I'm on the verge of Paris in 1945 which I thought would be a good place to stop for this report since I would like to do some console commands and mess around with the end game (still have the save game file though)

Suggestions and Comments

My biggest suggestion right now is that SIC declares peace with RUS if they are part of the Reichspakt. Right now SIC has that mechanic to join the Entente if GER falls. That then creates a war often between RUS and the Entente. In my head it is theoretically possible, but doubtful that the Entente would go to war with RUS after the fall of GER. Right now it just seems more like a mistake than anything.

Another suggestion would be for more candidates for entry into the Moscow Accord. The balkans is nice, and I know the team wanted to get rid of all the meme alliances that used to exist with RUS. I would like to suggest that GRE has the option to join, and the USA as well only if their ideology matches up and there is no Entente left. I think that is a more general suggestion though to give the US more options for alliances if the Entente is gone and they choose the "Entering the Fray" path.

Lore wise, I like everything that's been done with RUS. The civil war mechanic feels much more realistic now. The only lore I miss was choosing to have the capital in Petrograd, but you can't win them all.

I've had the Russia-Entente war occur with HAW, so the SIC issue is more that RP nations continue their war with RUS after GER falls.

Yeah, you're probably right. My only thing is that if that nation has a mechanic to jump ship to the Entente, they should probably have some mechanic to end their war with RUS since the Entente in almost every circumstance would see RUS as and ally, and not be willing to be dragged into a war for a new ally.

Russia will now peace out with any non-neighbour Reichspakt members. Thank you for the feedback!
