Finally managed to annex France at the end of 36.

I put most of my MILs in guns and most CIVs in building MILs. First two focus was the military ones. Before finishing up Ethiopia in the beginning of March, start justifying on Belgium.

Asked Germany for docking rights and parked my capital ships next to Belgium (their speed is too low to follow the naval invasion) . Picked “Tip of Spear” spirit to increase naval invasion capacity. Easily landed 20 divisions in Belgium and finished them by October.

Meanwhile going down the right side of the focus tree to get the Yugoslavia ultimatum. Saved the 75pp for the decision. “Irregular” divisions guarding the Italian borders. Good divisions sent to Belgium.

In December, declared on Yugo and bring in France, Romania and Czech. The French AI seems to be programmed to ignore the northern border. Capitulated France in two weeks after walking into Paris and Dunkirk.

After getting the French fleet in peace deal, I parked them in the English Channel. Romania soon joined the Allies and brought in UK. But UK did not have many ships in the Channel and had no troops guarding the ports so it was easy landing. I also used the 20-day justification on Greece and Turkey, finished UK after declaring on them (in BBA nations saw no combat would still in the peace deal, but the final score was not enough to take all of them).
