Yeah, it's tough to get any cash flow, my only exports are grain, cotton, fruit and sulphur. I managed to save up enough to buy 2 clippers so I can actually convoy effectively. Plus some industrial techs have brought up my income/exports. Unfortunately Russia attacked the Ottomans and the UK attacked Russia, so I lost two allies and the possibility of attacking the Ottomans. I banned the British Faction since they were going to be elected (all my clergy are Liberal, 56% of voters, 10% of population) and that really would have stung my militancy levels. I keep getting liberal and socialist events, which I don't want. I could use some conservative/reactionary ones to convert my clergy back to conservative.

Interesting game so far. Playing as Austria I allied with Germany in early 37' to hopefully avoid the Anchluss(sp?). Well I declared war on Hungary not long after I allied to Germany and annexed them. Italy had a GoI on Hungary and declared war on me not long after I had annexed them. So then we basically destroyed Italy, but Italy wouldn't accept any of my peace deals so I created a Italian Social Republic as a puppet. I left the alliance with Germany not long after that. WW2 was not fun to watch Germany was completely destroyed by France and SU. Then the US declared war on SU(91 belligerence) and then the SU declared war on Japan. I made the Allies declare war on the SU because I thought it would make it a bit more interesting.
Ichi, you're gonna have to give me hints or somethin' on HoI. For the love of me, I cannot get my head wrapped around this game. Of course, I s'pose I should probably stop trying to play as Nationalist China....
It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.
What exactly don't you get? Yeah, probably should try Germany. That was my first game in HoI.
As far as my game. The SU was just annexed, France has pretty much all of Europe and into central Russia, the UK has Finland and a bit of northern Russia and almost the entire Central part of Russia, and the US have the rest.
Japan just declared war on the US, UK, and Netherlands.
Finally, I have Brazil comparatively isolated in South America. Chile, Argentina, Venezuela, Panama, and Paraguay are all my satelites. I'm hoping Brazil takes bait and declares war on me, so I might turn the entire continent against them....
edit: And the alliance offers were basically for **** and giggles, on the off chance that I might get lucky and actually just have a really nice, safe bastion in South America. Not to be... >:(
