Man, I never thought it would come back, to be honest. I'm glad it did, though! Now I can finally learn from my mistakes in the past! As such, I would like to take a moment to pass on some pro tips for EVERY country I played as on that map!
First up, Siam:
-Make use of your Isolation. Your economy and military are weak, but so are your neighbors. Use this time to build up your stuff!
-DON'T attack The Netherands too early. You will lose.
-Appreciate your navy. You'll need it.
Latvia:
-Befriend Lithuania or someone with Rare Materials. You don't have any.
-Make good use of that Oil! You'll need every drop!
-For the love of god, don't attack the USSR. This goes without saying, really.
on that note, Lithuania:
-Invade Danzig ASAP. You need the goods and steel. You can go a while without oil.
-On that note, make friends with Poland. Or, at least, try.
-Also, make friends with the other Baltic states. Help each other out!
Egypt:
-Build up your food production IMMEDIATELY. You begin with negative gain.
-Maybe invade Libya. You could use some oil.
-On that note, don't over estimate your army's strength. It's not that great.
Columbia: (my favorite)
-Use EVERY industrial complex. You have 5. Make 'em count!
-Build a navy. You can, so do.
-On that note, increase your oil production ASAP. You aren't Venezuela.
Romania:
-DON'T F*** WITH GERMANY.
-DON'T F*** WITH THE SOVIETS.
-DON'T F*** WITH ANYBODY, REALLY.
Finland:
-Defend your border. Norway, Sweden, AND the Soviets all have better military power.
-Appreciate your food production, and build some militias. Really, it's all you can do with 3 industrial complexes.
-Maybe build a Navy ASAP. Need something to gun down your enemies with.
Ireland:
-See everything to do with Latvia and do it in Ireland.
Switzerland:
-Beef up your economy. You're pretty much impossible to invade this early, and your military is awesome for such a tiny country.
-That's it. Maybe befriend Italy too.
Hope this helps anyone, really. Cheers!
