How to live the longest in historical world war map

Historical map... Seriously??? The map is imbalanced. Just leave it to that...... and if you dont want to die than pick a minor nation that is away from all the superpowers, like India or Brazil. All the major players go AFK by day 10 and you win

No, it's true.

In my current game France, Germany, Japan, USSR and USA do next to nothing. I expect them to drop any day now. India, Australia, Brazil and Argentina are already inactive and it's only day 5.

Heck I won the historical with Canada. I took the US down from day one with an motorized infantry and artillery spam. His answer was to spam militia but that didn't save him. The Historical is mainly played by noobs who hope that by picking a big nation the have a higher chance for survival. Most of the construction, research and production is done for them. The map is notorious for their inactivity. Aspecially the bigger nations as they will give up as soon as they are faced with any difficulty.

It's not super hard to win as small countries if you know what you're doing. I've won as Persia and Poland (although when I won as Poland it was because neither Germany nor the USSR was smart enough to invade me in the first few days).

Which country would be the bigger challenge to win as?

i almost always see argentina players to be better than USA players in 1939 historic ww, but alas it's not true in my game, since i am the USA and Argentina can't invade Brazil successfully

If you want to stay alive long, all you need to do is have good relations with neighbors, have a strong army, and stay active. You will notice that players start dropping off and becoming AI every day. By day 5 there will be less then half of the players left. By that time, you can roll through the now AI player countries and make yourself a world power. In my historic world war game, I am playing as USA. On day one, I allied with UK and Canada. On days 2 and 3, I LT rushed mexico and completly destroyed him. Canada was a noob with 0.3 kdr, and I wanted to backstab him. I told him to put all his units in the sea, then I took all of canada. On days 4-6 I invaded all of central america (the ai anti-tank and anti-air slowed me down). I made friends with the other world powers, (USSR, Japan, Australia, Germany). Day 10 I had all of north and south america, and had it well defended. If you can survive till day 10, only 3 or 4 active players will remain, and if you have good diplomatic relations with those players, you can slowly defeat enough of the AI to get the solo win.

When retiering a game the player with the highest score will get the solo victory. If you are together in an alliance then you will get a coalition victory. The game will end as soon as all 3 remaining players have agreed to retire the map. If they refuse to retire the map than just attack them until they do. You can find the retirement button by scrolling down the newspaper. Under the thread "the worlds dreaded or most popular nations" you will find the retirement button.

Untrue. I won several games thanks to the suicidal AI.

Sometimes AI put SEVERE resistence aginst me, so it almost seemed like a partisan movement- many provinces kept reviving and they never gave up... I was USSR the AI im talking about is Finalnd and AI poland i eventually contained Poland but it took so much effort that eventually i had to give it up or risk fighting Europe... Finland NEVER went down, eventually i was so busy trying to end Finalnd i got blitzed by Persia 'n' Mongolia, just beat'em but by then i was outta gas, China nd Japan attacked and it was my end- my forces in the west fell and Finland took Moscow and the west after WEEKS of fighting.

Other times it just really swallows my forces when im a bad economy like Spain or Japan, then i cant replace and i die.

normal games are very boring noone writing at newspaper there is no coalition even day 3 and we have only 4 players at historical map

That's the one thing that you shouldn't do. No-one ever won the game by attacking AI. You need to take out your competition. With every player gone from the map you get closer to the win. Also when there's only 3 players active then you can retire the game and it's over. It's the fastest and easiest way to win a map. Just forget about AI.

There were 4 people left, my coalition and japan. The AI were the real life players who quit so they had plenty of core provinces.

Ahhh...I thought I could make it a challenge to win as sandwich-Poland, but I see that has already been done.

Which country would be the bigger challenge to win as?

Will be interesting.

This post was made to help players to not get annilelated but another player

some times in the historical world war map you see this:

First coalition:nato

Second coalition:Warsaw pact

3rd coalition:axis powers

there’s ALWAYS a rivalry between the 2 most biggest coalition

so you have a choice:join the 1st coalition or the 2nd

but if you join any of them... you are TRAPed in conflict

but here’s a fact:if you don’t join the conflict you won’t be ded so quickly

So first: play as a country with GOOD position

Example: Iran ,British India,Australia,Brazil and Argentina
