Since you seem interested, via use of Horde mechanics which is what The Scourge is, I now own two provinces in the Eastern Kingdoms directly. Things are going fairly well. For now.

I would have loved something like that, but I imagine it would be a fucky system. Somehow. But I still would have loved to be a fallen paladin or something serving under Arthas.

No, you definitely can by changing the end date in the files. What I don't know if if there are any setbacks to this. I had seen somewhere that after a while the economy crashes beyond fixing but I don't know if this is the case.

I invaded Poland in 1936 as the Soviets, took over half of it and puppeted the other half, and that is when i found out that if i have my subjects at integrated puppet level i can control their armies and build stuff in their territory which is kind of awesome.

Now im working on swaying the masses of Turkey and the Balkans to communism and then ill focus on Scandinavia. The comintern grows stronger with every passing day.

Hey Japan, thats a nice steady offensive you have there in China, would be a real shame if someone deployed a volunteer mountain corps and reversed the front encircling and annihilating a bunch of your divisions.

And so begins the Second world war, Comintern vs Axis.

Finland capitulated after a joint land and paratrooper attack and the german army in Prussia got destroyed by my troops from lithuania and Poland. Now my armies are forming up along the Polish German border, and at Slovakia and Hungary in the west. And my armies have begun their offensive into Manchuria putting the Japanese on a two front war.

Only 10 options for a poll so there would not be enough to cover that kind of poll properly.
