Grand Strategy - Does History Repeat Itself?

[Spechtmeise]

February 1942, playing the Axis. I have to pause and consider my options. It is obvious that the tide is turning.
Initially, I made great progress: Poland - conquered, Denmark, Holland, Belgium - captured. France - under my control. The Italians managed to capture Yugoslavia, Rommel reached Cairo and the Suez Canal, my U-Boats seriously hurt Allied transports across the Atlantic ocean. Moscow seemed to be within striking distance.
But that was 1941, a year of glory. Now the year is 1942. The weather has turned foul, the Russians are bringing in reserves and even break through my lines. I can hardly contain these breakthroughs because my troops are exhausted and restricted in their mobility. The U-Boats are taking heavy losses and the Allies protect their convoys with destroyers. My industrial production is hardly sufficient to make up for the losses I am taking, not to mention the question of getting supply to my overstretched lines.
Yes, the outlook for 1942 is gloomy. Where will it all end?
In other words: I haven't had that much fun playing a strategy game against the AI for ages. I look forward to trying out alternative strategies. Grand Strategy is a winner.

So has the new mod improved the AI performance? (Your description of your reaction to it makes it seem so.)

Any thoughts by anyone who has played the new mod?

The AI hasn´t been improved in the new mod. I think this improvement is a thing to do in the future but not for now. I would like too to play challenging games against AI (like you can play a good chess game with a computer) but I will have to wait a little bit.
