Decided to overthrow Hitler.

How's your morning going?

Gonna try and unlock Victoria 3

Who doesn't love a good pocket full of Nazis?

And throwing all our regular divisions into a punch through the centre is working. We're at the gates of Berlin...

Pretty certain the remaining regular regiments loyal to the Nazis are bottled up in East Prussia. I've got Lutjens blockading the coast to stop them sliding back in via the ports and reinforcing.

Donitz is having fun hunting their convoys off the Danish coast.

Rommel is Rommelling his way into Munich, which is good. I need this pocket popped asap. The advance up north is stalling outside Berlin and this would allow me to throw the rest of the Landsturmregiments north, along with Rommel's tanks.

Von Manstein is making the big push on Berlin!

Good. Fuck that guy.

Berlin is ours. The Nazis have moved their capital to Breslau. Time to swing south...

Rommel is Rommelling on Breslau!

VICTORY IS OURS!

Hitler is dead. The Civil War over. Von Mackensen's Military coup has succeeded.

Will probably pick this up again after lunch/writing session.

Now I need to get a Kaiserin on the throne...

Woohoo. Thanks to our increased dedication to air safety laws, the Hindenburg survived!

Next up, we need the Netherlands to be a bit shitty and not return the Kaiser when we ask nicely for him.

I have disbanded 95% of my army to encourage them to be brave.

HOW VERY DARE THEY

*whispers*

we secretly wanted this.

Remember: Our goal here is to get Princess Victoria Louise on the throne.

Mostly because she shares Von Mackensen's taste in hats.

Now her Dad is in power as Wilhelm III, but women can't inherit and she's not his eldest daughter. These are not insurmountable problems...

Her GRANDAD, sorry.

We'd need to reform the succession, AND something terrible would have to happen to both her father, the potential Wilhelm IV, and her elder sister.

How unlikely.

Let's reform the succession anyway. You know... just in case.

Meanwhile, FANTASTIC news for us across the channel.

The British AI is going Royalist...

And the Carlists have entered the Spanish Civil War.

So lets order Rommel to do some Rommelling round Iberia.

Sorry.

I mean lets ask him and his men to "volunteer" to fight in Spain. Ya know. And take their Panzers with them.

And why don't we see if the Lion of East Africa fancies a Spanish holiday as well. We can get him as a Field Marshal, now there's a Kaiser again...

Yup. Britain has gone absolute monarchy.

Okay, we've been buttering up the British for a while now. How about we ask them nicely to restore all the titles that the German royal family lost in WW1?

Yay! They said yes!

We should send the ENTIRE German royal family to Britain, for the ceremony, on the Hindenburg and enter in style.

NOTHING CAN POSSIBLY GO WRONG WITH THIS PLAN.

We'll send Princess Victoria Louise ahead to make the arrangements....

OH NO. EVERYTHING WENT WRONG WITH THIS PLAN. OH, THE HUMANITY! THE KING-RALF-MANITY!

But wait... we sent Princess Victoria Louise ahead. She wasn't on board...

All hail Kaiserin Victoria!

And her crazy-good stats.

And, most importantly,

ALL HAIL THE SKULL HAT.
