17 years back - early 1927 Weimar Germany is ISOT'ed to early 1910 Europe

Hence to military calculations one must add:
- half of V Posensches, small part of I Pommersches, and the whole XVII West Preussisches Amrmee Korps in the east
- small part of XIV Badenisches, all of XV Elsassisches and XVI Lothringenisches, and most of XIX Ost Lothringenisches in the west

8-9 InfDiv on top of the arfmed to the teeth with leading edge tech Reischswehr. Don't forget all the eq

But what happens when their leading edge teach runs out?

Ha!
Another cute map:

Going by InfBrig, I see 9-10 InfDiv from 1910 still "being there".
But what happens when their leading edge teach runs out?
They make more.
Inside 48h of the ISOT German factories go into manufacturing frenzy.
Fun fact - the arsenal at Danzig - capable of c.140K rifles a year, is still there :)
Same applies to the Schihau yard - you know, the one which built the SMS Baden battleship ... and has just delivered/is about to deliver SMS Oldenburg.

So, some 8-9 InfDiv on top of the Reischswehr. The men and equipment are (mostly) on the spot. True, as mentioned, no material reserve for them.
And don't forget all the equipment the UT Germans had hidden.
The Reichswehr can easily be expanded using its highly trained professionals and enthusiastic WWI veterans.

Thanks for the info. :) Those 8-9 divs aren't a lot but then they have some formidable defences in the west and Weimar Germany can probably start sorting out some munitions and supplies for them pretty quickly so the question, if both French and Russians attack the key issue might be the east.

GASP!
I made a terrible mistake!
AK XIX is West Royal Saxon, not East Lorraine! The correct number is AK XXI!
The shame! The shame!

Not to mention the boo-boo with dates - the XXI AK was only established in 1912, hence not available if ISOT in 1910 or '11.
However, the Infantry Regiments, maybe even Brigades and possibly the Divisions were already there. I.e. the 2nd Reich stopped spamming IR around 1900, hitting the c.180 mark in 1897 or so, and adding very few afterward. Even in 1914 there were enough supernumery IR to form 4 InfDiv.

Offensives are railroad bound - you can only move up to some 100-150km from a railhead.
Between Cracow and Danzig there are 6 (six) RR bridges, with non-ISOTed Prussian fortresses (on the map) on top of three.
The Russian steamroller (the closer to 1910 the weaker, BTW) is not going anywhere far ...

Note a Bavarian Brigade in Metz (or Diederhoven) - now Weimar Germany is INVINCIBLE!
:)

Were the whereabouts of Prussian (and other) Royals in 1927 aleady established?
