sowjetunion

[sascha.peschel]

when i play sowjetunion, why doesn`t warsaw pact belong to russia? cold war era......
it is not possible to build military buildings for example in east germany.....this areas belong to warsaw pact

[Urist]

Because the pact is a separate player just like NATO is separate from USA

[sascha.peschel]

but why`?

[Urist]

Because it enables proxy wars and the like where US and USSR are not directly fighting and generally enables more complex scenarios than 1v1

If you want it all to be just East v West with one player each you can edit who has what in the scenario options

I don`t understand, why there is a difference between sowjetunion and warsaw pact. i was born in the 70s, the sowjetunion was the initiator for that. Why there is a difference in this game?

So you can have scenarios where one player is the actual USSR and another is the Warsaw Pact, like how one player can be the US and another can be the rest of NATO. If you prefer, you can use the 'Tune Regions' function to change the territory ownership however you want, so the Warsaw Pact can be controlled by the USSR player.

Start a game with the configuration option "preset alliance" on, and ensure the soviet union, warsaw pact, and soviet allies are all together. At the start of the game, go to alliance settings and turn on "build in ally territory". Now you can build on the warsaw pact territory.
