Both McFjord and New Reutlingen are on right now. The Carolines is not.

McFjord != New Reutlingen, probably.

After 1943, Italy was cooperative to German demands, and the Japanese had their own horrid crimes; though, I was referring mainly to the war in Europe, not the whole of the tripartite pact.

At that point Italian foreign policy was made in Berlin.
Rome was the new Vienna.

Which bit of Italy, after 1943?

Anyway, Italy was involved with the Holocaust from way earlier, and had started genocidal actions of its own, dude. Like in Libya, Yugoslavia and Ethiopia.

If I had to choose, I would probably like to be a gunner or tank commander for a Soviet heavy tank regiment, since I particularly enjoy to study Soviet tanks from that era, especially the heavy KV and IS series of tanks. I think it would be fun to watch a German tank or bunker go up in flames after a shot by a heavy tank gun.

I was referring more to the Austrian Empire in WW1 being Germany's puppet.
WW2 Austria didn't even have a foreign policy.

And then you use German civilians as target practice.

did this actually happen (if so i would like a source not "yes")
ask moderation about reading serious moderation candidates TGs without telling them about it until afterwards and/or apparently refusing to confirm/deny the exact timeline of TG reading ~~~ i hope you never sent any of the recent mods or the ones that got really close anything personal!

signature edit: confirmation has been received. they will explicitly do it before and without asking. they can look at TGs basically whenever they want so please keep this in mind when nominating people for moderator or TGing good posters/anyone!

Oh. I thought you meant that Rome, like Vienna, was essentially controlled by Berlin in World War II.

Vienna being controlled by Berlin seems to be true in both wars.

it's a very specific war crime that you can't just make up as a filler for misc war crimes, which i'm starting to assume you did

It's either I kill them or I get a bullet to the brain for going against orders. It's also revenge for the 7,000,000 or so civilians the Germans killed, so it kinda makes up for it.
