法西斯主义

轴心国（领袖）

德意志国（German Reich），是继第一次世界大战后于1918/19年11月革命中被摧毁的大德意志帝国（德意志第二帝国）的继承者。所谓的魏玛共和国（Weimar Republic）一直保留着德意志国的名字，直到1945年为止。随着纳粹党（Nazi party）于1933年上台，该国变成了由阿道夫•希特勒（Adolf Hitler）领导的独裁国家。它是欧洲战场的主要轴心国力量。从历史上看，德意志国于1939年9月1日进攻波兰，从而引发了第二次世界大战。德意志国于1945年5月4日至5月9日投降，结束了第二次世界大战的欧洲战场。

1936年，纳粹党几乎已经牢牢掌握了权力，几乎没有面对有组织的国内抵抗，并为该国为下一次战争做准备。

背景

1936年

一个崭新的德意志正在崛起，自魏玛共和国解散并被希特勒的第三帝国取代以来，已经过去了三年。如今，在艰难地捱过了大萧条的前几个年头之后，经济秩序正重归稳定，大量的失业问题也得以解决。

凡尔赛条约中对德国军队施加的限制早已被抛诸脑后，国防军正日益壮大，另一场世界大战已初露端倪。

1939年

在德军重返莱茵兰地区后，英法两国对德国的疑心已日益加重。慕尼黑协定允许了德国吞并苏台德地区，以保护当地德意志人的利益。莫洛托夫－里宾特洛甫条约则确保了苏德两国间的互不侵犯，同时也对两国如何瓜分波兰作出了协定。

德国已经为此等待了太久，行动的时机就是现在！

地理

在1936年，德意志国尽管遭到了一战的削弱，却仍是欧洲最强大的国家之一，从莱茵河到西里西亚，从波罗的海到阿尔卑斯山脉。从北部沿顺时针方向，德国本土依次与丹麦，波兰，捷克斯洛伐克，奥地利，瑞士，法国，卢森堡，比利时和荷兰接壤。此外，东普鲁士北临波罗的海，东邻立陶宛，其余两面波兰相邻。

在1936年剧本中，莱茵兰和摩泽兰是非军事区，德意志国直到完成进军莱茵兰的国策或卷入某场战争，都无法将部队移入该地区。如果再军事化后在与敌国对峙时退缩，那么该区域将恢复非军事区。

德国北部的海岸线主要是平原和东弗里斯兰的沼泽，大部分内陆森林茂密，山麓地区主导着捷克斯洛伐克边境，与瑞士和奥地利的南部边界也有部分山区。基尔运河横穿德国石勒苏益格-荷尔斯泰因州，连接了北海和波罗的海，这样德国和其盟国的船只可以绕过丹麦而自由往来两海

德国有许多大城市，而大多数德国的地区至少拥有一个主要城市。从战略的角度来看，首都柏林以及法兰克福和慕尼黑等最为重要，西北部的莱茵兰-鲁尔区是主要工业区，最大的海军基地位于威廉港和基尔。全国基础设施水平普遍较高。

As a Fascist country, the 德意志国 begins with slightly negative relationships with most of the world. In Europe, only 意大利 has positive relations with the German Reich. The Treaty of Versailles demilitarized Germany's border with 比利时, 卢森堡, and part of the 荷兰 and 法国. The German Reich is the leader of the Axis at the start of the game but has no allies yet at the beginning of the grand campaign. Following the 1.5 patch, Germany is able to form the German Empire through national focus, and the Greater German Reich or Holy Roman Empire through decisions.

The German industrial capacity is formidable. Germany possesses the largest military production capacity out of all European countries and its civilian industry is on par with the other European major countries. The only thing Germany lacks is a sizable naval production capacity, something that eventually needs to be addressed in order to challenge the navies of other countries.

These numbers represent the available resources, depending on trade law a certain amount may be traded away.

As far as resources are concerned, Germany falls a little short compared to the United Kingdom and France. While Germany has access to a large amount of steel and a good amount of aluminum, they have a severe shortage of everything else and can easily become dependent on foreign import to fuel their military apparatus. Luckily, the Rubber and Oil shortage can be at least partially mitigated with synthetic resource refineries while metals (Tungsten and Chromium) can be secured throughout Europe.

Army

1936 scenario:

24 Infantry Divisions	1 Motorized Division	1 Mountain Divisions	1 Cavalry Division	3 Light Tank Divisions

Total: 30 Divisions | Manpower Used: 269.60K

In 1936, 德意志国's Wehrmacht is relatively small compared to the armies of the other major powers. However, quality is its strength, the Wehrmacht is well trained, with all divisions being regulars and thus receiving 25% bonuses in combat. The Wehrmacht is also well equipped, with no equipment shortages, large infantry divisions (a width of 18), and support artillery and engineers. Most importantly, it has a highly elite mobile segment, with 3 light tank Panzer divisions and one motorized SS division. The Panzers are mostly light tank 1, but light tank 2 is already researched and in production for upgrades. This 4 division unit can be dangerous if deployed effectively to punching through enemy lines on plains and then aggressively encircling enemies.

Thus, there is no need to wait for slow rearmament in single player. The player can easily crush the UK (through a surprise invasion) or France with its starting army with the right strategy. Even in peacetime, the elite mobile divisions can be sent as volunteers to Spain or Japan for extremely decisive impacts. Neither Republican Spain nor China will usually have countermeasures against aggressive encirclement by Panzers, that being said, ending the wars too quickly may have negative strategic effects due to rocketing world tension.

Examples of alternative division template names for German Reich include:

Mountaineers - Gebirgs-Division
Marines - Marine-Division or Marine-Korps
Paratroopers - Flieger-Division or Fallschirmjäger-Division (after 1943)
Motorized - Motorisierte-Division

Capital ships 1936
2 Battleships	2 Heavy Cruisers

Screens and Submarines 1936
8 Light Cruisers	12 Destroyers	14 Submarines

Total: 38 Ships || Manpower Used: 21K

The Kriegsmarine ("War Navy") is small and outdated in 1936, and without serious rearmament efforts, it won't stand a chance against the Royal Navy due to a lack of modern capital ships and air power. However, it can be rebuilt in the time available into an effective fighting force, especially if operating under the protection of the Luftwaffe.

Historically, the Third Reich had begun to implement a massive shipbuilding programme known as Plan Z that called for no fewer than ten modern battleships (including the Scharnhorst and Bismarck classes), four aircraft carriers (including the unfinished Graf Zeppelin) and three battlecruisers (the planned O-class) to lead a large fighting force of surface raiders capable of both operating far out into the Atlantic against convoys and fighting pitched fleet battles in the North Sea against the Royal Navy, but efforts stalled as resources and yards were diverted to more critical material following the outbreak of war.

Production shifted almost entirely to U-boats in a bid to cut Britain off from the resources of the Commonwealth and USA through unrestricted submarine warfare, and by the end of the war, the Kriegsmarine was overwhelmingly comprised of U-boats, many of very advanced design that heavily influenced post-War Allied submarines after the fall of the Third Reich. The player can choose either of these directions through the small naval branch of Germany's national focus tree, although Plan Z will take some more time to execute than the construction of a submarine raiding fleet.

Germany starts with some technological advantages in naval design, including 1936 designs for light cruisers, destroyers and submarines, and in 1936 has eight Type IIA U-boats and four Type 1934-class destroyers under construction, as well as the famous Admiral Graf Spee "pocket battleship" (heavy cruiser) about to leave the drydock. Two Scharnhorst-class tiers II battleships are under construction as well. It has two manufacturers to choose from - Germaniawerft and Blohm & Voss - which respectively confer bonuses for capital ships and raiding fleets.

Air force

Aircraft 1936
80 Close Air Support	280 Fighters	72 Naval Bombers	480 Tactical Bombers	4 Transport Planes

Total: 916 Planes | Manpower Used: 28.16K

The Luftwaffe in 1936 is smaller than the RAF, which is usually its main adversary, and the small fighter force is outdated. However, the German Reich does start with 1936 designs for all aircraft except carrier variants and heavy fighters, meaning that modern aircraft production can begin right away and research efforts can be diverted elsewhere.

Historically, Germany focused on flexible medium bombers such as the He 111 that could provide tactical support, and also pioneered close-in air support with dive bombers such as the Ju 87 operating in concert with ground troops on the offensive. Germany's default air doctrine and unique advisors allow for the execution of very effective ground support operations.

The Luftwaffe was rapidly built into a modern air force in the late 1930s, playing a key role in German offensives in Poland, the Benelux, and France. After losing to the RAF in the Battle of Britain, the Luftwaffe would go on to play a vital role in early German victories on the Eastern Front, although the lack of strategic bombers to destroy Russian industry beyond the Urals ultimately contributed to the failure of Operation Barbarossa. German aerial innovation continued throughout the war, even after the tide had turned against the Axis, leading to the development of both the first operational jet fighter, the Me 262, and the V-2 rocket, the first long-range guided ballistic missile.

Strategies and guides

During 1936 a good construction strategy is to focus on improving infrastructure in states with lots of resources and factory slots, then building civilian factories in those states. Later in 1937 its wise to start shifting construction towards military factories (And dockyards if you intend to invade the UK after capitulating France). Militarily, the first priority should be to inflate your army manpower enough to reach the requirements of the "Anschluss" national focus as fast as possible. This focus will give you valuable Austrian factories, as well as some manpower, divisions and resources. One way to accomplish this is to only train infantry divisions as they are much cheaper and faster to produce than tank or motorized.

Start with the "Four Year Plan" national focus and continue with the other industry focused focuses, as soon as the requirements for "Rhineland", "Anschluss", "Demand Sudetenland/Slovenia" and other diplomatic focuses are achieved you should take them. Germany is in a race against time to occupy Allied countries before they outgrow you industrially. Given enough time the Allied countries have enough factories and manpower to beat both Germany and Italy. Therefore it is recommended the player has declared war on France, Yugoslavia, Poland and/or the Benelux countries before 1939 is over.

Remember to send volunteers to fight for Nationalist Spain to gain military experience.

Germany suffers from a lack of fuel for most the early to mid game so its important to keep in mind that fuel silos, refineries and trade are important parts of the pre-war buildup. After war is declared with the Allies you can still trade with Romania and the Soviet Union without risking losing your convoys. Avoid trading with the Soviet Union, unless absolutely necessary, since you will likely be at war with them in the future and you don't want to give them more civilian factories.

In the buildup to the war with Poland you have many strategies to choose from. However, one approach is to build up the army with tanks and motorized, while upgrading your infantry template to include artillery and support divisions, air force with fighters and Close Air Support/Tactical Bombers and leaving the navy largely ignored as it won't help much in your wars with France, Poland and the Benelux countries. Use naval bombers and submarines to disrupt UK shipping and troop transports. This strategy largely follows the historical strategy of the German Reich.

Another approach is to focus on a strong navy, particularly submarines. While only producing a small amount of "elite" tank divisions and letting motorized/motorized artillery divisions be your "punching force". Air superiority is still very important and it's recommended you have deployed a minimum of a 1000 fighters at the outbreak of the war. Use submarines to sink as much of UK transports and trade convoys in the English Channel at the start of the war. Keep your surface fleet in dock until you think it can match the Royal Navy, and France has surrendered.
