War with Rumburg ( SPOILERS )

[Kommandant]

Seeing Rumburg obliterating everything in it's path again and again and again regardless of my decisions and war strategy is becoming very frustrating.
Starting a new game, spending hours just to witness Rumburg steamrolling across the nation, and not being able to load from a previous save to tweak a thing or two is inconvenient and very annoying at times.

So out of immense frustration I'll simply ask... How do you beat Rumburg ? Cause I'm going to have a fit if I lose to that old hag again.

I realized in my last play-through that it doesn't matter if Agnolia commit it's entire forces to Dome. They're still going to loose, so modernising the navy or even recognizing their claim is futile.

Check guides on Iosef strategy how to win war

War is a matter of you bearing your decision from the start of the game, and how committed you are to it

[Kommandant]

I see now, so it all depends on how determined I am to go to war from the very beginning of the game.

Then it was my own damn stubbornness to maintain a middle approach even though I was dead set on going to war.

Thanks, I'll go for it now

There's a few ways to win the war but the easiest is to do it with two allies and commit to Iosef's strategy. You don't even have to raise the military budget if you do it that way. Just follow Iosef's suggestions to a tee and victory will be yours.

[Kommandant]

To be honest Iosef's strategy is like cancer to me, cause of number of times I've tried it and fall flat on my face. It's the most logical strategy considering the circumstances but for mistakes I've made early game it kept on failing I hope to change that by the end of this play-through.

Yes, if you goes half, like following Iosef strategy on modern forces but kept conscription, it will only reduce the effectiveness of your army, lowering your chance of success.

Also no, Iosef strategy works in most scenario compared to Valken. Again, you just need to be committed to it

[Kommandant]

Much obliged. Although, I always went through with Iosef's strategy. Modernizing the Army, getting rid of conscription, investing in either air force or the army.

I guess the problem lies in my diplomatic approach, and the positioning of my allied armies.
This time I'm going to make Agnolia join my army ( I also invested on highway ),and have Lesipa go for the Doom.

[Kommandant]

Finally I won the war Now I can sleep much easier at nights XD

Thanks for your help citizens of Sordland

I am sure there are more ways to win the war. But the main thing is, if you are going to wage war with Rumburg, you must be committed from the very beginning

I won the war with following Valken on large Army, keeping conscription and trench war with going for dome in the second move. I upgraded the navy ( they still lost the war on the sea, I guess there is a random factor to it since I won it before with same allies with normal military budget) I had the military Industry and the railway upgrade aswell as perfect Economy wich made Lespia help me defending against the first attack with 2 Armies and their Airforce. Later I had them defending my flank. My Allies were Agnolia and Lespia. I always supported them in Everything to get maximum Supportz from them. ( So be nice during the meetings and the Allied Nations speeches.

I think dev already said there are no random factor im game.

Also Lespia is terrible for Valken strategy, since they are opportunistic and will pull back if the war goes on
