Update on the War - Day 3

Dust has settled in 3 more regions of the German/Poland conflict, this time without a German victory. What was meant to be a war between two small nations, one better prepared than the other, more experienced in combat, and looking to climb out of the shadows that it had been lurking in since it had been crippled by the advancing Swedish empire, is now a war that the world is participating in, in large numbers.
Looking at the number of battles will tell it all. Polish victories in battle, a mere 70. Victories from it's allies, 336 combined. Most of those fighters are moving in from other parts of the world including Italy, Spain, Sweden, and the UK among others. Honolulu has seen it's population spike well over 70 people since the start of the war. It's beaches and sandwich shops, armories, and gift surplus have dwindled heavily since the start of the war.
Now, for the first time in the war, battles turn to German soil. The Polish (the few that are there), and their allies look at retaking Pomerania, and the possible fall of Berlin. Berlin has already seen it's fair share of blood spilled on it's streets during the course of the Swedish invasion, with 360 battles occuring in the first round. Now, comes the second. Germany has a depleted market, and looks to make a stand to keep her own independance. The aggresor has effectively become the defender, and with all eyes on the old capitol building, we shall see what happens. Will the Polish stop at independance, or will they march towards an invasion of their own? Only time will tell.
On the Polish side, world opinion varies. Some freedom fighters are there simply to keep Poland a free nation. Whether they like the current administration, which consists simply of a Mayor in the largest region, or not they want Poland to remain free of German rule. Those people probably will not attack German land. On the other hand, there are others, like the Swedes, who may simply continue the push towards extinction of the true German State. This would open the avenue for them to attack Poland, since they cannot attack Germany due to the Non-Aggresion Pact they signed at the end of the first conflict.
On the German supplies, they still have the support of their allies, but they need supplies. With a high tax it is simply not affordable to the citizens of Germany to export there due to their tax rates. In time of war, imports and supplies are sorely needed, whether they come from allied nations (they already have economic treaties with four other countries) or otherwise. The advantage they have in manpower is simply being overwhelmed by their lack of quality goods and the defense bonus.
Just my opinion, of course.

Well written Dish. If Pakistan had not got involved then the UK would not have got involved. We felt it was unfair that Germany got the help of Pakistan while Poland was left friendless, we helped and they are so far winning. I hope that Poland settle at taking Pomerania and that is it. If Germany had sense they would let the Polish take Pomerania and then negotiate. After all a lot of German gold has been spent on one region. Not worth it at all.
Oh, and I know this is off topic, I hope that you win this upcoming GE Dish. I\'ve subscribed.

Not true!
Prop. Joe is just here to defend Poland!
@Widdows: Thanks.
@Joe: You are probably one of the few that I am aware of. I know there has been talk that if Poland were to conquer Germany in a counterattack they would then be able to take Poland on without violating the NAP they signed, and therefore paying the gold that would go with it.
Iunderstand if Poland tries to conquer Germany, they are mad at Germany for starting the war. But I won\'t help them with that.
If Poland now succeeds with conquering Germany (they wont), but if they do and Sweden starts a war against Poland I\'ll be the first one to leave Sweden and help Poland again.
Thanks again for your excellent medical care!
A weird thought though is if Poland do invade Germany and then all the freelancers leave the country will still be made up of Germany and then they could vote their own president in no problem. Really it would still be Germany but under a different name and flag. If I were the Polish I would try and take Pomerania only and leave it at that. No point in getting greedy.
I\'ll fight for Poland no matter how far they are willing to go. I fought yesterday for the first time, and lost, but I\'l fight again.
A question:
Is Indonesia and Pakistan able to defend the German regions from their country?
Im fighting because im bored 😛
Joe, I don\'t think they are because Germany started the war. I\'m not sure though.
Sweden does not have an mpp with eGermany at this time. Germany only have mpps with packistan and indonesia. And nobody i know in sweden are talking about taking over Poland or germany. We gave germany their land back. Why would we want it now? Or Poland? The swedes that want to fight can do as me and Prop. Joe does, go to another country and help some one else. Thats at least what i here in the forums and what i think sweden should do. No more wars at the moment. We have a perfect size at the moment.
@Prop: No.
