In case of Ukraine: A somewhat better representation of historical reality would be to split their country in two: western Ukraine, at war with Poland over the city of Lvov, and Ukraine proper, at war with Soviet Union but neutral towards Poland with an option to become a Polish puppet when their capitulation progress reaches a certain treshold (Because that's more or less what happened historically)
@@warthunder7730 They got it more or less figured out already with that "peace with Ukraine" focus imo Plus it's an older version of Great War mod, maybe they have a newer version nowadays they're working on
well, Ukraine wasn’t neutral to Poland. There was “Act Zluky” which united eastern and western Ukraine (or eastern Galicia region). There were many polish people in Galicia, so they thought of it as a part of Poland. This way Poland started a war against Ukraine. Poland had french support (guns), while Ukraine was fighting in 3 fronts (Communists, russian Nationalists and Poland), so Ukraine had no other options, but surrender, retreat from west and ask Poland for help in the war with russians.
@@chokolapka2595 Ok, I was under the impression Ukrainians in the west who fought Poland weren't under the same leadership as the Ukrainians who fought Communists, thanks for correcting me.

Pew-sud-skee, beey bolshevika (beat the bolshevik). Weird that Piłsudski is not Field Marshall in-game. Here is a fun historical fact about Poles going into Kyiv back then - apparently first Polish patrol that reached the city got to the city center riding a public transport tram. Also, it was really historically convoluted with Ukraine back then - as there were like three different Ukrainian governments, and one was supported by Poland, the other by Bolsheviks, another was independent, and then there was Makhno with his Anarchists...
@@mayhemguy8432 no I mean I've never heard of pro-Polish one, can you explain? Is that not the UPR after Petliura made an agreement to cede Halychina for alliance?
@@pc_suffering6941 from what i know yea but this was secret agreement with what i know independent side. also from what i know there wasnt central government.

Medals are useful for giving some extra experience to division commanders before promoting them to general, to get them over the threshold to guarantee starting with a trait. The medals themselves are pretty forgettable though, they just get lost in the sea of division modifiers that exist.
I sometimes assign medals. Mostly because I hate having lots of extra political power stocked up. Or if I have a small army and want every possible advantage. But its just so tedious. They need to make it more streamlined and easy.
Germany in 1923 confused as to why other countries looking at them weird. 100 000 no more! Yes we have exactly 100 000 officers
North america stable in 1919
Mexico: oh mah boi i think you are wrong
When have they ever?

Poland in 1925 did better vs the allies then Germany did in the entirety of WW1
this is impressive till you realize why it was so easy to beat the soviet union after ww1
it's almost like they fought something before
@@Yes-qj4bi Poland also didn't exist before that so I think that evens it out a little.

I love this mod, nice seeing you play it again.
Hey I have a little problem with that mod. I can't research anything. A weird black dog with glasses is next to everything! What should I do?
Probably a mod conflict if I had to guess
You can train like 50 divisions from the start they are trash but russian are worse

Are they even available in this one?
