Clash of Nations-My game as Spain
Before writing about the game, I want to state that I’m a noob and is not very active. If you hate watching games played by noobs, you can leave now. I also want to recount what happened in my first 3games, which were disasters.
Game 1
I joined as Finland and declared war on Karliae. I sent single infantry into the country and lost one immediately. Never send single infantry to attack. This is the first lesson I learnt. Later I sent more infantry into the country and took the AI using 4 days. I concentrated my tanks and artillery in my capital. I din’t know how to build stacks band wanted to build a stack composing mech infantry, med/heavy tanks and SParty. Next I prepared to invade Sweden when he attacked me. I had far more units than he had and was soon counterattacking. I used about the same time As I used on Karliae to defeat him. Next, I invaded Russian Empire(AI, though I couldn’t distinguish inactive players). To my surprise, I lost quite a lot of units as the AI had a lot of units. However, I won finally and advanced into his territory. I stacked every stack with 10 units influenced by my second ongoing game. Of course I couldn’t cover the whole front, so the AI spam units around. I gradually took 3 cities, including the capital, but all the provinces except the ones my units were stationing at were recapture. In additional, I was getting busy. I retreated all my units to my core cities, giving up 4 cities on the way. Communist(AI) declared war too, but my reserve stack stopped him. Ah, and I forgot to mention that I conquered Denmark and Norway before invading Russian Empire. The AIs had few further actions. But just then Germany(player) declared war, capturing Denmark and landing on Sweden, but my submarines wiped out his convoys quickly, I brought in my surface fleet and killed more troops on land. After that, my air forces arrived and continued killing units. I finally brought in a small land force which captured Berlin and Hamburg temporarily. They were soon defeated by the German forces(he actually went AI at the point), resulting in massive loss of my airforce as well due to the loss of airfield. It was already a few days from day36 so I used my reserve stacks. I was crossed to see two German cities rebelled to Netherlands. But I captured Berlin and another city anyway. I also captured 2cities of Russian Empire. I had little interaction with others so I didn't talk about the global events. Libya and his teammate Morocco were the major powers at early game, with about 200 points each. They were weakened by Italy and Southern US respectively. SUS was the master of America and had 260points. He was at 1st place when the game ended(260 points). I applied his coalition and he accepted. Romania and Poland rose rapidly in late game(240, 190points). The latter defeated Communist and got half of Russian Empire. SUS and I won 1st pace as coalition. I was the only one who remained active on the last day. This might be an extreme case even in CON. My final point was 170. Looking back, I researched all kinds of units in this game as well as constructed every type of production buildings in a city.

I created my own coalition which was called Axis. Russian Empire and Libya left their own coalitions on day 6. So they would apply in day 9, if I'm not mistaken.

We have a coalition calling Comintern, Allied and Axis

day 8
4 German cities fell yesterday but a city was captured by German forces and then revolted to Italy, whom was nearly conquered by Libya, resulting in 180 points and at 3rd place for me. Of course I wouldn't forgive Italy for getting the city without doing anything. I had to declare war because the AI gave me ROW. I also wanted to capture Milan before Libya does. And for Germany, many rurals revolted and I hadn't capture the city surrounded by mountainous relief to play safe. I decided to bombard the city for the whole night to avoid losses. I upgraded my med. tanks, mot. inf. and subs to their current research level. I built oil and food industries. I was low on oil, steel and food and my goods were going out fast. For the military rank, I was ranked as the 3rd(13%). The 1st was Russian Empire(19%) and the second was Libya(14%). SUS was right behind me(11%). Actually I had far fewer units than SUS but the level of my troops was high.

day 9
I recaptured the city which revolted but failed to capture Milan. A German AC captured another city so my point remained 180. I sent my troops clearing Germany. AI is really annoying. Russian Empire, Libya and I finally formed the dream coalition. We had 750 points. I now had 3 incomplete stacks of 2SParty+2 med. tanks+4mot. inf. I was building the fourth stack. Goods and food industries were constructed and interceptors and subs were produced. The fleet and airforce of SUS was quite large so I had to produce more to defend against him. I couldn't rely on Libya because he was using unprotected battleships and SUS used subs.

day 10
I finally cleared out Germany, which became the first playable country that I finished off without losing units. Our points added to 860 because Libya captured 7 cities of Caucasus in a day. My own was 200 which was my record. I sent my troops to Romanian border, preparing an invasion from the south. Libya had also started bombing UK forces. He would need a long time because UK(AI) had many units(nearly 50). I was again low on steel but I had nothing to do.
Day 11
Our points remained the same. My units were still travelling. Half of my army returned to core to defend SUS, who had just cleared up Canada. He was going for UK also. Russian Empire didn't make moves. I don't understand cause he was still active. Just an hour before day change I attacked Romania.
Day 12
Coalition points: 900
My own: 210
That's because a UK city captured by Libya revolted to me. I captured 2 Romanian cities in the Russian Empire territory. Another two at the border was also captured after a while, I advanced and captured another. Libya attacked a while later. And Russian Empire invaded Cossack Republic and made an article boasting about his paratroopers. I was speechless. And to punish SUS for getting more gold than us, I broke the NAP and used my subs to wipe a cruiser of his. Later on when I checked the newspaper, I found he was trying maintain peace. Another juicy UK city revolted to me at day change.
Coalition point: 1020
My own: 270(3rd place)
Libya: 460
Russian Empire: 290
SUS: 170

1. AI is producing too many units. Sweden and Finland, both having gone inactive on day 4, have 66units.
2. I think I've improved, but I notice I've killed only half the number of units of the last game.
3. This is still an easy game as I didn't face a good player.
4. I think the SParty+ med. tanks+ mot. inf. stack is quite good, however, I think I should produce more med. tanks.
5. Militarizing seem not a bad idea. I'll try it later.
6. Spain is really not a good country. Don't choose it if you want to win.
7. The food consumption of Axis doctrine is higher than I estimated
the next report of my game shall start at mid-Jan, hope you enjoy this report(though I think none will)
The Axis coalition ruled the world, people lived unhappily ever after.
