war against rumburg ends in failure despite victory!?

[cirnonotbaka]

IM SORRY WHAT!? I got events for Victory against Rumburg By hulling down and waiting the enemy out. I got events detailing the superiority of my navy, the beneficial logistical situation, i had my allies in Agnolia, in Whelen, contributing to my victory, i had even gone back and MODIFIED MY SAVE FILE to accomodate an EXPANDED AND MODERNIZED Air army and naval element. The morale was high, the supplies were high, the military industrial complex was in full gear, i had numbers, i had tech, i had a booming economy and i even got rid of the nuclear threat in Rumburg. After this, i was to attack Dome, but it never gave me the option!

What is your deal huh!? Did you put in some sort of kill code to make this impossible!? Did you somehow make this specificly to punish people who chose to fight? What the hell did you do!?

Now i have the Friggen battle of Holsord to deal with DESPITE everything i have done in the past TWO DAYS! THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS SHADY CRUD HAS HAPPENED!

Now i really wanna know, what is the problem here?

[cirnonotbaka]

Im abnormally mad about this, i dont even really know why, it's just infuriating to me.

It could be a bug but also could just be pure chance wars don't ever go how you plan them. Rumburg also has numerical superiority on you even with Agnolia and Wehlen.

[cirnonotbaka]

The problem is that it said i achieved victory. Im gonna give this game one more try, benefit of the doubt, full restart, and copy the save at the start of the war to forcibly restart with numerous tries until something, anything, works. Mabey i will figure this out by trial and error.

Investment in the highway help, you should also follow Iosef or the either guys plan fully, (so if you modernize, modernize the airforce AND remove conscription AND do the pincer, etc)

Contact dev on discord if you thought this might be a bug. But then again, no offense, try checking your reports, and maybe refrain from modifying your save files?

[cirnonotbaka]

I did alot of save scumming and other tests, it has to do with victories being cancelled out by eachother in relation to modernization or expansion, and to the reserves and conscription.

If you impossibly have both an expanded and modernized force, you will not reap the benefits of both, but instead the downsides of both, as the game will take their downsides into account first.

You cannot win with Agnolia and Wehlen you need either Lespia OR the communists as well as Agnolia and/or Wehlen. Basically Agnolia is the little brother of Lespia and you need both and Wehlen is the little communist country and you need it s big brother as well. I do not know about the saved files as I have not used them to win the war. I understand the frustration as I have not had a Sordland only victory yet despite following other discussions. However do look at other discussions the guidance does work re. who to ally with which options to choose and conscription and modernising etc, see other chats on this to resolve the issue.

I meant to add that you might have thought you had won when actually you have not. If the Generals are arguing or unsure at the end of that chapter you have lost. They have to be happy. There should be 4 scripts as well at Elsord (I think it is Elsord which is where the Pincer strategy is launched from). Otherwise it might be to do with a fault due to amending the saved files. I would therefore follow the how to win the war scripts in other discussions as they work for an allied victory.

Its possible to beat Rumburg alone!

Actually, you can. I did it with Wehlen only in my emergency run. Just make sure you prepare military very well and follow the right strategy and victory is close.

You are right. I have done this subsequently. I have yet to get Wehlen to actually get to Rumburg as my Buds keep mining the road and driving them back, but that is probably a matter of balance as I went full on Sollist and the Buds were not happy. You do not need Wehlen and the Sordland alone works but follow it exactly and renew the emergency twice, also do not assasinate anyone important as you get impeached.
