Well I wouldn't have that poll up until you actually win in Spain.

Well either way we'll stay allied with Republican Spain. We'll just either get random nations involved or the Allies involved.

I think it's time that WW2 becomes about the Spanish Civil War, and we let Germany sulk while everyone fights over the Iberian Peninsula.

How about completely ignoring Gemany for a while and going to stomp Japan over in Asia?

That could work. Unless Germany invades us while our armies are in Asia. Actually war with Italy seems far more likely now.

Update Eight; The Fall of Spain

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Well that story was longer than I thought it would be. I kinda got into writing it. Anyway we beat the Nationalists after two months, most of which was spent marching through annoyingly hilly Spain. I'm trying to get Belgium to join our alliance as they have a more easily defended border with Germany so if we can stop them anywhere we can stop them in Belgium. Two possible other entries to our alliance are Lithuania, Bolivia, Czechoslovakia and Romania.

If you get Lithuania in your alliance, you'll end up at war with the Soviets after the M-R pact.  Czechoslovakia won't do you much good, since they'll get annexed by event.  Belgium is good if you can get them.

If you are planning on fighting in Europe soon, an effective approach would be to station troops in Belgium and along the Maginot line, then steamroll Germany from the west when they invade Poland.  Easy as lying!  Make sure to guarentee poland first!  Actually, do that anyway, as it will give you a free move to interventionism when German DOW's them.

There's actually a third faction, the Comintern or The Communist International. And to join the allies axis or comintern I think we have to give up our alliance with Spain.

IIRC, it's possible to join a major alliance (allies, axis, commitern) while being the leader of an existing alliance, which causes your alliance to join the alliance.  That's what happens with the US for example which starts in an alliance with Liberia but joins the allies.

Ally with Belgium. Also, I like the fact that Bolivia and Romania are on the top of the list for joining our alliance. I find that amusing.

Only leaders of the big three, and scripted events can merge alliances. If one of them offered a merge than we'd merge. Also as to why Bolivia is on there, it's because they like me and aren't too isolationist. They wouldn't be that useful as they don't even have a coast.
