Darkest Hour: A Hearts of Iron Game

First game playing as Britain circa 1936, I decided to check out the diplomatic options. Just for giggles, I used claim option for the entirety of Germany, then proceeded to demand they cede the whole country to me. Guess what? Good old Adolf obviously decided that invading Europe wasn't for him, and handed his country to me on a platter. No battles, no espionage, just two clicks and Germany was now part of the British Empire. Although that was briefly amusing, it immediately indicated what a terrible game this actually is, sucking any further interest in playing any further.
