DutchStorm Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 in the middle of a PBEM game I notice that Italy does not join the Axis, despite war readiness is at 97 % for at least 5 turns now. Is this normal, or a bug? I mean, cannot get much higher then that percentage, so Benito should be joining I think! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_j_rambo Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 No it's not a bug. I'm playing a PBEM right now & Italy came in Jan. 1940. I didn't even invade the Low Countries yet. Our POLITICS is set RANDOM. jon_j_rambo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchStorm Posted November 14, 2002 Author Share Posted November 14, 2002 Yeh, I know it is random, bit with 5 turns on 97 % it seems they should have joined by now, not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchStorm Posted November 14, 2002 Author Share Posted November 14, 2002 Has anyone experienced this before, and what would be the explanation for 5 turns 97% without joining? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yohan Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 That is very weird Dutch, Usually once it hits around 87% (not 97%) they show up the next turn. Any unsual circumstances of attacks etc. in the game? Have you taken or are you adjacent to Paris?

jon_j_rambo Posted November 15, 2002 Share Posted November 15, 2002 Let us know when Italy decides to join. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchStorm Posted November 15, 2002 Author Share Posted November 15, 2002 Well, in the 8th turn they still did not join and still 97 % Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yohan Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 Dutch, Per my earlier query, are you adjacent to or have you taken Paris? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchStorm Posted November 16, 2002 Author Share Posted November 16, 2002 Sorry Yohan, missed that specific question No i am not near Paris... Would that be the reason, despite the 97 %? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yohan Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 It very might well be. Try and get a unit nearby and see what happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchStorm Posted November 16, 2002 Author Share Posted November 16, 2002 Ok, will try that, but my point is, hey 97 % already because of agressive actions, they should have joined by now, that 3 % should not make the difference, should it??

Otto Posted November 16, 2002 Share Posted November 16, 2002 So let's see, 97% would be our new 100% then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Compassion Posted November 17, 2002 Share Posted November 17, 2002 Originally posted by Otto: So let's see, 97% would be our new 100% then? no, but it is odd, you have to admit, rolling that unlucky for several turns in a row... almost like when I had no tech advances with all 10 points invested fora year and a half... doh!

DutchStorm Posted November 17, 2002 Author Share Posted November 17, 2002 Yeh, that tech thing can sometimes make you mad, but the odds are some lower, but when you have convinced Benito to join for 97%, hey, what the hell is he waiting for for 10 turns now...
