Confusing Newspaper Article

In an HWW round, I saw this article in the newspaper:

Forum attachment

Upon first glance, one might presume that the Soviet Union and the German Empire are at war with each other. But such is not the case! They are actually in the same alliance. The stack that was destroyed was part of the result of a nuclear attack that the stack was in the vicinity of. Perhaps there should be something that tells the reader that these two nations are not at war, because this article is formatted exactly the same as articles that report events in wars. It even says, "Casualties since the beginning of this WAR.

Stay Sweet!

Even the Harvard school of Journalism has given up on accurate reporting, how can you expect CoW to get it right?

My men died saluting the glorious old flag

You could write an article and put it in the paper for clarification. The article just gave facts an AC was destroyed by an Atomic bomber didn.t say anything about being at war.

Yeah agree with the above post. As for the newspaper article, do you really think a war between Germany and the Soviets would only have so little casualties? c'mon

Though what exactly were the Egyptian rebels thinking to join the Germans instead of their own country lol

@Carking the 6th he just means that it does say that the AC was destroyed, but not due to war. If I send two nuke bombers to nearby cities, if one explodes, then the other runs risk of exploding without dropping the bomb. In there you get a notification (If you're Germany) "Army Lost! Our x Armored Car Brigade was destroyed by the x Atomic Bomber Squadron! Of: Soviet Union"

Yes of course. But that wasn’t Egypt, that was Germany with a cool commie flag that Zhukov chose. How do I know this? Because I was USSR, and Germany was Zhukov.

There quite simply isn't enough of a need for this highly specific news article to be introduced in the game. It's not worth it for bytro if it appears twice a year at most.
