What to do after ending ww2 as axis?
it's 1950, I drove the allies out of europe and africa,marched my troops all the way to japan ( the japanese joined the allies in my timeline) russia was wiped along with the communist faction. and now it's just the U.S. doing nothing but building 1000 + divisions... I managed to ally with mexico , and want to wipe the U.S. out. but I can't really think of how I could do that, I never went all out with division development seeing as 350 divisions worked just fine for me.

I managed to defeat the United States in my last playthrough by turning Mexico Fasicst and sending about 80 Panzer Divisions into Mexico and aiding with the push through the United States
Yeah, i've sent about 200 divisions there, with jet support, nukes if needed. but even if their tech seems archaic ( given they're still using medium tanks and light tanks) i'm not sure if my e25's, e50's, modern aa, spg's and even my own elite mechanized armored divisions could defeat 1000's


Sure I faced incredible odds of fighting russia, british raj, mongolia, japan ( with their 500 divisions) and so forth. but they were all fighting each other as well so it was a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ i could handle. The Americans on the other hand have just bunkered down on their fat asses and just watched the war rage. I was thinking of maybe spamming mountaineers as well and hold up the british colonies in canada to fight the maple army. If I tear through the center of the U.S. encircling to eliminate them as I did with japan given the huge numbers. I could perhaps win? or atomic destruction to their industry and hope that chokes their troops

Paradox games, you set Your own goal. Start a new game when you feel your done. :)

Leave the faction and conquer the world. Don't be afraid of division counts, many of the AI divisions are understrength and the AI isn't good with division templates.

Yeah divisions numbers don't really matter.

I conquered the whole world with British Empire, using only about 30-40 infantry divisions to "hold the line", while I rampaged through victory points with 14 Armored div (usually split 7 + 7 to speed things up) [ 5 Modern Tanks + 5 Mecanized + max support + Veteran Status]

The USA have most of their VP on the East Coast, use a couple of Nukes to lower their NU so you don't have to cross the whole continent to grab a 3 VP city in the middle of the map.
