So how do I naval invade. I did it once as as Germany by taking Guam from the United States after hitting the naval invasion button. In a new game where I'm currently doing far well from all of my previous "learn to play as you go" games and am trying to invade the Baltic states as the Germans. I see invasion planning and a cost. I have the money, I have the monthly balance, but no invasion. Why? They have no BBs, except for 1 constructing, while I have 3 and 4 building. The rest if obsolete Bs and the rest of the fleet is trash waiting to be sunk. Why arn't I invading? I tried to check the manuals but either I missed it or they were unhelpful.

If you want to invade neutral countries, there’s a mod in the mod forum that tells you how. Just don’t use it to invade a nations colony. Only a neutral.

Possessions worth 10+ points cannot be invaded.

Possessions worth 10+ points cannot be invaded. Let me just clarify that statement. Are you saying colonies worth 11 or anything higher cannot be invaded or are you saying colonies worth 10 or anything higher cannot be invaded? This kinda info needs to be available in the manual.

Possessions worth 10+ points cannot be invaded. Then how much VP do I need to take them over?

10+ means ten or more.

I disagree. I've noticed that if I widen the gap between my VPs and their VPs I get more at the peace table. My question is how wide do I have to force this gap to try and get what I'm after to make the 20th century the German century?

As aeson said: "There is no set amount of VP which will guarantee that you have a given number of points at the peace table."
Better VP difference can get you a better peace deal, but does not guarantee it. Even if winning by 20 000 VP you can get 4 points. Other time winning by 10 000 you get 8. Major advantage increases your chances of getting a favorable peace deal but no amount of points will ever guarantee anything.

Well what defines a major advantage because my strategy right now revolves around using submarines to cripple the enemy. Though I did just get a recent encounter where I sunk 4 enemy battleships so perhaps I'm getting the hang on things.

Tens of thousands of VP advantage can still give minor concessions or even no border changes. The only reliable option is to build ~100 submarines and sit back until their unrest forces a government change resulting in 5-12 peace points

Possessions worth 10+ points cannot be invaded. Is this number stored in a config file anywhere? Is there a mod that changes it? I would like to be able to invade anywhere provided I have enough ships.

The paths to victory in RTW2 are myriad.

I've always thought that it was the ratio of the victory points that mattered, not the raw difference.
