So I decided to play another game as the People's Republic of China. Early on in the game I pulled as many countries into my orbit as possible through mutual defense and alliance treaties. I gifted some units to the FARC so that they could conquer Colombia and also somehow managed to pull Al Shabaab into the red sphere with a few gifts as well. Soon after this Belarus attacked NATO. I immediately gifted them my entire army and air force and they conquered the Baltic states with little trouble. Then they attacked Poland, France, Italy and Germany. With regular gifts of military goods and units from me they slowly advanced across Poland and reached the German border. At this point Germany and the rest of the EU launched a huge offensive through the remnants of Poland in the south. They drove Belarus all the way back across Poland, almost to the prewar borders. Realizing how dire the situation was immediately gifted my entire military to Belarus AGAIN and began a propaganda campaign to "win the hearts and minds of Europeans". The tagline for this campaign is "Yes we can conquer Europe! Lukashenko for dictator of Europe!" The Belorussians have now begun the slow reconquest of Poland from EU forces. Right now it looks as though things are relatively stable and I'm confident that Belarus will able to finish off Poland once and for all. What concerns me however is what happens after that. I'll admit I'm not too confident that they'll be able to defeat the Germans and I'm already gifting them all my units as I build them, I have no more reserves left. If war breaks out on the Korean peninsula I'm really screwed.

Keep us updated on how it goes please. Pretty sure Belarus will fall if you won't support them with 100% of your economy.

Well with me constantly giving them literally EVERYTHING I produce they were able to crush Poland and Germany underfoot. Things were going well against France when they stupidly declared war on Spain, Belgium and Denmark. Now I'm pretty sure they're screwed no matter what I do.

That is what I hate about the AI in Supreme Ruler. Either no wars, or multiple wars a country cannot possibly win.

What settings are you playing on btw? That is what I hate about the AI in Supreme Ruler. Either no wars, or multiple wars a country cannot possibly win. Well the third option is you script alot of wars.. and try to randomize them enough that its not too redundant. But with time being the only trigger this is harder than it sounds. I do have some (1 or 2) scripted wars that should start every game.. but the time frame is something like the first 10 years so its not too redundant.. ill have to check the specifcs and see how they are working for everyone. Another option.. is to script alot of randomish relations modifications.. and hope the AI uses the CB you give it as an excuse at least some of the ime.. Again i have 1 or 2 of these but haven't heard much feedback to the effectiveness. Both l viable options but I'm not sure which would be optimal in the long term. Which is why only 1 or 2 of each are included right now.

I think giving full CB to some countries against others would work.

I'm playing on medium volatility. Anyway, sure enough they eventually lost the war and got wiped out.
