Allies War Chance

[ecrivain]

Hi all,

I've been playing a campaign of RTW3 for a few weeks now as an AAR/Lets play and I've had a consistent issue. Despite going to war several times with the US as my ally, they have never even considered going to war on my side.
In the current conflict I have been at war with Germany and Italy for 12 months, with Germany joining as Italy's ally about 3 months in. The tension track currently looks like this:

I would have expected the US to join by now, or at least to apologise for not being ready to engage. Instead I've heard bupkiss.

What do?

From my game play experience, sometimes the AI takes a really long time to join a war on my side, I'd say just keep on playing or do some game file editing to prolong the war and eventually your allies should join. Historically, Germany did not join the war on Japan's side until December 1941 when the Tripartite Pact was signed on September 1940, and Germany and Italy might have waited even longer should Perl Harbor happened later.

Yeah, they eventually joined, but I think it's slower than it used to be (or I got unlucky/previously lucky).
