Standoff: A WW2 AH RP (OOC)

[Neo-Assyrian Empire]

You should probably hope so. If I can manage to distract Germany for long enough, you could mobilize your forces more effectively and attack them from the East while I invade from the West.

Either way, we'll just see how Germany responds

We must also hope the Soviets don't get involved.

Yeah. If they get involved, it's bad news bears. For you especially

Yes, for me especially. You have less to fear.
Also, is it okay if I evacuate the Polish Free Forces to France if I get defeated?

Good luck getting to France. Your only coastline is at Gdansk and that would be the first target of Germany to take. You might be able to get into Romania, but..

If I can get into Lithuania, then I can get into the Nordic countries and filter into France from there.

[Confederate People of the United States]

I doubt so (or maybe i only hope so?). Only 54 of the Wermcht's divisions were ever used in the real invasion of Poland.

You should probably hope so. If I can manage to distract Germany for long enough, you could mobilize your forces more effectively and attack them from the East while I invade from the West.

Either way, we'll just see how Germany responds

I don't have forces. You really don't either I mean you are France for God's sakes.

[Confederate People of the United States]

Free the Juden.....

[Zeinbrad]

Free the Juden.....

I seriously doubt that freeing 50,000 jews will deal the critical blow to the war effort.

Explain to me how else France made an empire (Something that doesn't involve the cunning use of Flags)

Got that one.
France has an army.
The only reason people feel like the French are horrible at warring is because their main defense against Germany in WW2 was exactly nowhere near where the Germans invaded, and the French couldn't fall back fast enough to contain them.

And that is the reason why I sort of extended the Maginot Line, just so that way the Germans can't get through from Luxembourg and Belgium.

It is a labor camp man, they do the dirty work with machinery. It is not a death camp. So yes, it would be a blow to your economy.

What about world war one too? Explanation for that. Waterloo even (different war)? France is good at making chesse. But good resistance. They fight when it actually IS a threat hand that to them.

[Confederate People of the United States]

Thank you. We need guns and maybe drop a few soldiers. Just a few. If you want. I will try to help your troops behind the lines.

Could you sabotage some weapons/ ammunition depots? That'll help quite a bit

Where are German troops currently positioned?

We might be in spot of trouble since the frenchies are trying to go on the offensive.

I believe (This might not be the case) that a majority of them are in Poland right now.

I will do whatever necessary to help my one ally. (So far)

Waterloo was just a poorly executed battle. Before that, Napolean was on a roll
World War 1 was due to a German surprise attack. They also used trench warfare, which makes it difficult to shoot a soldier's head off when they're hiding 7 feet beneath the ground. Either way, the Germans thought it would be better to get drunk than to capture Paris

Do you know what women do doing WW2?

Not what the jews were doing, evidently.

WW1 was not a loss for France, and without France it would not have really even started nor would have lasted long. French troops held Verdun, beat the Germans at the Marne, and kept the British going at the Somme. WW1 was not a failure for France, especially considering war debt to France from Germany from WW1 was only paid off in 2010.

It was a stalemate for France and they were so mad they did not win that they forced very unreasonable demands onto The Germany.

You don't find what they demanded unreasonable

So mad they did not win? So I guess this never happened?
And as for unreasonable demands, I point you to Exhibits A-C

I'm not saying that, I'm saying that they had other, bigger reasons why they made the demands besides,"They were mad."

You realize that it was a stalemate due to the fact that neither side could advance. They were stuck in a gridlock. The armistice was signed from the fact that Germans simply could not support a the war for much longer. As for your links, you realize that some of that artillery is also from the French since Germany had advance into French territory. Your casualty figures say that Germany spent more money and lost more men then the French.

That just means Germany gave up before the allies broke the stalemate. Also, the fact that the shells are both German and French does not change that they ended up there in the first place. What were the French gonna do, not use artillery? Ergo, your point is moot.
