idk RT56 is my go to

i dont like vanilla

[lucid torrent]

How to teleport a fleet now?

[hollow linden]

.....u don't

[opaque garden]

what is best japan strat

playing japan for the first time after the update

i am going his

[glacial steeple]

usually its to prepare for wars then win the wars you prepared for, and to strike for factories/resources you lack

dont be overconfident, plan where the attacks where you get the most return on investment

[young hill]

So go north

Not south

Is what @glacial steeple is saying

[glacial steeple]

yes you can do that

if ussr builds eco in actual siberia then you always go north

because it ruins their game

[young hill]

im talking sp

cuh

[glacial steeple]

well then you probably should get north sakhalin and click the oil decision a million times before striking south and naval larping

[stuck garnet]

Idk i dont like mios

[vital geode]

Did you know shift click and queue everything

[analog surge]

hi uh how do i download older versions of mods

[lethal perch]

@young hill you are not #1 i am #1

you are #2

[stuck garnet]

I like the concept and everything

[stuck garnet]

Yes

Wait wrong chat ig

Im going to #hoi4-general

[glacial steeple]

i get your issue

[stuck garnet]

They handled it badly💔

[glacial steeple]

theyre supposed to be like companies in places but theyre not tied to states (except the ones in china) and cannot be transferred between countries, cant retain their progression

which sucks

[opaque garden]

since when is substance abuser a trait

and what does it do?

[hasty belfry]

What should you use for naval patrol missions? Submarines or forces of light cruisers and destroyers?

[sour hazel]

Do you think it’s enough division to invade russia ?

[dense flume]

I got bodied by ai as China

[wintry matrix]

It's been a thing before the last big update.

Dunno for how long exactly.

[opaque garden]

but What does it even do?

canhe just randomly vanish or what?

[wintry matrix]

Increased chance of injuries and sickness, I believe.

Or chance that they actually get addicted and get a -2 or -1 on all stats eventually.

According to Reddit.

[hollow linden]

Not a thing?

[hollow linden]

Never take anything on reddit for good info

Reddit is the Number 1 place for misinformation

[wintry matrix]

What you been by "not a thing"?

[hollow linden]

It's not how the addiction trait works

AFAIK it does nothing

[wintry matrix]

It existed before.
I never played Japan for a longer time.
It claims that the trait gets worse, decreasing stats.

[hollow linden]

What is "it"?

[wintry matrix]

The trait.

[hollow linden]

Maybe they changed it with this dlc I've never seen it do anything before

Cuz its been here a long time

[wintry matrix]

So can be ignored.
Until India trades Opium, apparently.

Dunno if they do it on historical base.
I assume so.

[sinful vessel]

I've finally managed to win the war as Germany in the lowest. I know i'm bad, but i'm also better than before ;-). Would you have some advice on the next country i could try ? I would like to finish in world conquest if it changes something, in order to test things.

[hollow linden]

No way

It does something finally

[wintry matrix]

That's from the Wiki.
As outdated as unreliable it can be, it is the most official thing we have.

[hollow linden]

If its in the wiki it's most likely true, the wiki is only missing smth

When it has it its usually true

[viscid abyss]

I’ve been at war with the ussr for almost a year now and it’s a complete stalemate

How do I attack my tanks can’t break throigh

[small stream]

This may be an oddest question I can give for the channel, but do most people who play Germany have Historical AI on or off?

[sinful vessel]

For me mostly playing Germany, mostly historical AI

[wintry matrix]

In my friend group, there is someone who often plays Germany.
But we always play on non-his. So that's 1-3 for the statistic.

[ionic ferry]

can sm1 give a quick run down on whats changed with the navy? can only send like 4 divs and uk is destroying my shi

[stiff moth]

Can patrol cruisers do the patrol duty alone now or do i need dds with them?

[hollow linden]

They can do it alone

Put it on never engage too

[sinful vessel]

For an Uboot admiral, i'd go this way, am i right ?

[glacial steeple]

you get both from doing top

[stiff moth]

can patrol cruser subs work as well now

I wonder since Italy gets a free rp for naval tech

[hollow linden]

Uh sure

[solid mica]

So I have 50 nukes but the thing is when I use the nuke raid it’s telling me to get 10 strategic bomber models and 10 intercontinental bombers how do I get it?

[hollow linden]

You build them?

[wintry matrix]

Just build 10 strategic bombers.
10 large planes.

[hollow linden]

They're planes

[solid mica]

Oh just build em

[stiff moth]

they need to be deployed to an air wing as well, not in storage

[solid mica]

I got you Wbt the intercontinental though

I don’t have those and I don’t see how to research them

[wintry matrix]

That's a special project.
In the air facility.

They just have a bigger range.

[solid mica]

Ok

Thanks man

[noble summit]

can you seriously not get achievements when playing offline?

[sinful vessel]

I struggle with special project, may it be because i only have 1 center of research ?

[wintry matrix]

Correct, sadly.

[noble summit]

do you perhaps know why this is a thing? you can in eu4

[wintry matrix]

Nope, I have no clue.

[glacial steeple]

theyre steam archievements

[noble summit]

so what, eu4's are too

steam supports offline achievements

[glacial steeple]

different game different devs idk

thats all i can give you

im just hoping they add keybinds within the next 5 years

[hollow linden]

I mean you need to connect with steam servers so

[noble summit]

...so what?
in eu4, you get them as soon as you go online

[hollow linden]

I don't know, that's just how it is. Don't expect the games to be consistent. Is it dumb? Yes. Is it fixable? Probably. Can I do something about it? No

[noble summit]

i know, i'm not blaming you

[sly estuary]

which nation best benefits from license productions

it seems a bit niche

few civilian factories + the military factories to produce it yourself

[timber ether]

are there any dlcs where Italy gets more options to do weird stuff?

[sinful vessel]

Which ones you already have ?

[timber ether]

I only have the la resistance one

[hollow linden]

By blood alone

[timber ether]

great, thank you!

[stiff moth]

GTD gives you wunderwaffe

that can be fun as Italy

[fast bear]

if im usa and mexico tries to mess with my oil industrie and i have a decition to declare war
how can i declare without the british declareing on me

[analog surge]

i keep crashing

@hollow linden

[hollow linden]

When u do what

[analog surge]

use the the fire rises ukraine mod

when i load in as any country it crashes

[hollow linden]

....is it a sub mod?

Are u using other mods?

[analog surge]

nope

[analog surge]

and whats that supposed to mean

[hollow linden]

Check if it says on the mod site if u also need tfr

[analog surge]

i use tfr

[hollow linden]

So u are using other mods?

Tfr and the Ukraine mod?

For tfr

[analog surge]

yes

[analog surge]

i thought you meant other than tfr and that one sry

[hollow linden]

Again, check what it says on the tfr Ukraine mod, if you need tfr enabled or not

U are on the correct version yes?

[analog surge]

yes

[analog surge]

it says i need it

[hollow linden]

And it still keeps crashing? Check if one of the Mods is outdated

[analog surge]

the launcher says they arent and i even changed the version to the right one

[hollow linden]

Maybe the Mods are simply incompatible then? Tfr without the Ukraine mod

[analog surge]

but why would it be if the ukraine expansion need tfr

[hollow linden]

Idk, some error, it obviously does not work for no apparent reason

[analog surge]

ill try it without tfr

[hollow linden]

I meant tfr without the submod

[analog surge]

i meant it the other way sry

anyways its tfr that doesnt work

i crashed there too

[hollow linden]

Verify game files

[analog surge]

oki

[hollow linden]

Reinstall if that doesn't help

[analog surge]

im just confused cuz i think the swedish guy uses it

[hollow linden]

Could be something with your graphics drivers too but that's for laterr

It crashes when you try to select a country ?

[analog surge]

no when i select one and load in

like on the loading screen

and then it crashes

[hollow linden]

Ye alr

Could be a graphics issue

[analog surge]

okiii

[elfin crystal]

i just got la resistance will i have to watch a video to learn how spies work or will i js be able to figure it out

[hollow linden]

Update/reinstall graphics drivers if verifying files doesn't work

[analog surge]

girl im so stupid with computers idfk if i even download my drivers right

i just go in to the armory thingy and update all the things

my amd software dont show me how

😭

it is installed

[hollow linden]

Check for new Version

[analog surge]

exactly when it crashes

i see

[hollow linden]

HOLY MOTHER OF JESUS THAT THING IS BEEFY

[analog surge]

uh

is it

[hollow linden]

RX7900 XT is a good card

[analog surge]

uhm

so uh

i spend just a bit of money on it

[hollow linden]

ye its not new

Atp like 4 years old?

[analog surge]

i mean i did buy it a while ago

but its still really good

[analog surge]

STILL DOESNT WORK

AHHH

[hollow linden]

Verified game files?

[analog surge]

yup

[hollow linden]

Reinstall the mod

So unsubscribe and resubscribe

[analog surge]

oki

[hasty belfry]

What’s the best spirit of the academy for superior firepower with NCNS?

[analog surge]

still crashes

[hollow linden]

Fk

[analog surge]

what should i do

[wintry matrix]

Did you restart your PC?

[timber ether]

so I really want to do the achievement where Italy nukes San Francisco, but it's 1943 and I still haven't finished researching nuclear reactors. any tips?

[analog surge]

nope

[wintry matrix]

Try it.

[hollow linden]

Reinstall the game

Thats the last thing I can think off

Otherwise just unfortunate

[wintry matrix]

Just conquer USA.
And release it later, when you researched nukes.

[timber ether]

oh, is that all, just conquer USA? lol. makes sense, thanks

[fluid wharf]

@analog surge

[sinful vessel]

I'm Germany, i would like to set the port as the place where some ship will be build, but i can't find it in the list. Is there a max distance to build ship ?

[analog surge]

how

if u didnt im betting u have conflicting mods

[analog surge]

ima try

i dont have any other mods enabled

[fluid wharf]

why is the f word censored

[kind elm]

Hello, is space marines template still great in single player?

[analog surge]

still crashed

[wintry matrix]

Could you show us, that you're on the correct version?

I mean, we believe you.
But just for the protocol.

[analog surge]

this enough theres no warning sign thingy

[wintry matrix]

Damn.

[fluid wharf]

use the latest

ur on day 1 patch

[analog surge]

the mod is not for the latest

[wintry matrix]

Maybe try 1.16.9?

[fluid wharf]

i mean 1.16.10

ur on the day 1 patch of goe

[analog surge]

okkk

[analog surge]

im trying it nowwww

OMG

TYSM

THEHEHEHE

UWU

[fluid wharf]

No problem

[analog surge]

uhm

how do i install older versions of mods

[elfin crystal]

u cant i dont think

[analog surge]

ughhhhhhh

[elfin crystal]

theres prob a way

but

idk

just play on 1.16 if ur that desperate and use other 1.16 mods

wait no i misread what u said

just play on 1.17 and use 1.17 mods

[analog surge]

yeah but uhm im a little cheater and i want the instant wargoal mod 😭

[elfin crystal]

yeah

instant war

works on 1.17

[analog surge]

but i play tfr

[elfin crystal]

i use it

right

i understand

thats really unfortunae

prob just gotta wait for it to update

[analog surge]

..

ughhhh

[timber ether]

oh dude, the by blood alone dlc has a focus for nuclear stuff and you can get enrico freaking fermi as a scientist

[silk berry]

What do I need for this achievement? Because my progress in the naval doctrine tree is there already.

[ornate gazelle]

[livid cedar]

i dont?

[neat widget]

This region

Easy to miss

[sinful vessel]

Why can't i set (as Germany) the creation of my ships in my island in the Pacific ?

[livid cedar]

but i have it tho?

[dusty sandal]

your ships, just like divisions, can only be deployed in ports connected by land to your capital

[sinful vessel]

Sad, but ok ^^

[dusty sandal]

put those fleet to patroll (at least as many as regions going through)

[livid cedar]

alr

[neat widget]

You also need a task force patrolling each region you want to naval invade in

[dark cypress]

so i got my ships right there and it says they cant patrol the english channel how do i fix that?

[ornate gazelle]

you using the supply from San DIego

just press this button

[charred fable]

https://www.reddit.com/r/hoi4/comments/1p89nlp/i_tested_optimal_carrier_plane_desings_for_the/

oh wait i fixed it yeah i set the homebase in normandy thank you jerry 🫡

[ornate gazelle]

it will change you supply for you

[ornate gazelle]

NP mate, HF

[neon girder]

I was unable to defend poland agenst the germans but why?

[boreal hamlet]

How much have you had to drink sir?

[wintry matrix]

Poland joins Allies when they get attacked.
They have no borders and are isolated the moment Germany takes the two ports.

[neon girder]

Nothing att all

[boreal hamlet]

I you load your last good save and share screen in helping lounge, people usually pop in to see what is going on

[pliant charm]

Just slimed france

How do I kill the british

[boreal hamlet]

Poison their tea supply

[wintry matrix]

Cut their curry supply.

[wintry matrix]

You got two main options.
Either you use paratroopers and jump on their ports to ship over your main army.
Or you naval invade. The British fleet can be large so it might require some preparation.

[frigid harness]

eyo?

hello?

[twin tangle]

thats what youd call a "surprise attack"

[frigid harness]

how is this a surprise attack

Ive got 3m troops on the border

what u mean a surprise 🙁

[neat widget]

germany is screwed

anyways germany gotta man that whole romanian border whereas you can just charge ahead

and of course, dedicate your entire production lines to heavy tanks

[frigid harness]

the romanian were my puppet

[neat widget]

Yeah vanilla ai won't declare war on puppets

so if you don't bring them in then the border is 100% secure

[unreal pulsar]

Is this just enough for a tank division (singleplayer)

[jaunty tiger]

uhh i dont think theres a best, but i would recommend bittersteel cause he tends to explain a lot of stuff even in his non guide videos

[neat widget]

okay well hungary can demand transylvania, but yeah

[frigid harness]

they didnt have enough time to even join the axis

[safe umbra]

Ok then ty vert much

[frigid harness]

the war was like 30days

[jaunty tiger]

in sp u can use SPGs now cuz they're 2 width so use those if u want tbh

[frigid harness]

lmao

[neat widget]

no dlcs?

[neat widget]

that's with ncns keep in mind

[jaunty tiger]

are they still 3 width without it?

[neat widget]

wait

idk actually

[unreal pulsar]

I have dlcs

[jaunty tiger]

istg that'd be such a paradox moment

[unreal pulsar]

yeah I've heard they really good now but how exactly do I use them

like how many battalions should I be looking for

[jaunty tiger]

slap a medium howitzer on your medium tanks

oh

well

depends tbh

i try to have at least 30 org and 200 hp on my tanks

[unreal pulsar]

terrain right

[neat widget]

which ones

[jaunty tiger]

normally i do something like 9/9 or 10/8 spgs/mech/cav/whatever

[unreal pulsar]

up to ncns

[jaunty tiger]

terrain is a myth anyway

use medium flamethrowers and rangers and bam doesnt exist

well u dont even need rangers tbh just med flame throwers

[unreal pulsar]

I see

[jaunty tiger]

but rangers (support company not the special forces) are epic

(the special forces are epic too tho just i dont use em with tanks)

[unreal pulsar]

Rangers give forest buffs right

[unreal pulsar]

btw I forgot to mention this is for kaiserreich

first time I played france handed to me

[neat widget]

I see

it should be ranger recon, keep one of logistics and aa, assault engineers, medium flame tanks, and hospitals

[ionic ferry]

why can i only send 4 divs in naval invasions?

do you need to research the new navy shii?

[neat widget]

you have no transport techs unlocked i'm guessing

[native sand]

are heavy tanks meant to be a complete replacement of medium tanks in hoi4, or do they serve their own purpose?

[neat widget]

I mean you could definitely replace mediums with heavies entirely

the difference like between a t-34 and an is-2

Oh wait nvm

[shadow kindle]

what's the best way to have sea superiority against Britain as Germany?

[neat widget]

I thought that said tank destroyer lmao

idk, you could build a lot of empty 1936 carriers/escort carriers though

[native sand]

so does your previous advice still apply or do they serve their own purpose?

[shadow kindle]

somebody can explain to me why with this template division I lost against Belgium?

As Germany ofc

[wild rune]

Vro

This still applies

@shadow kindle

[wild rune]

Also 25cw is not great

12-18w and 30-38w is better

[shadow kindle]

So is probably better with just 8 inf 1 art?

[neat widget]

What previous advice about tank destroyers? If you mean whether tank destroyers should be used in MP, then yes of course. If you mean tank destroyers are useful as armor memes, then also sure. You don't need the piercing in singleplayer though, since spgs get a 100% piercing buff

[wild rune]

While better it is advisable to just not use any line artillery

[shadow kindle]

alright

[neat widget]

basically while artillery got good buffs in this update, infantry somehow got around the same amount of buffs (and perhaps even better) thus infantry are still queen of battle

[native sand]

saying heavy tanks are meant to replace medium tanks, also i mean just base heavy and mediums, not spgs, tank destroyers, etc.

[latent mauve]

Hello, i have an important question.
Genuiely what is this 🙏

I have never ever been more confused in my life

[neat widget]

the idea is that you spend political power here to recruit advisors, companies, and military staff for bonuses

and also change your economy and manpower laws

it's a good idea to click through them tbh

[latent mauve]

Okay thanks i rather uninstall

[latent mauve]

Before i do that, how do i declare war on france? (that was my original reason to download)

[neat widget]

Either through focuses (so click that very bug button (well it says italian highways rn)) or click on france and you should see a justify war goal button in the menu

[latent mauve]

I became German reich rn

[inner sparrow]

heavy tanks are meant to have more statts while being more expensive and medium tanks are cheaper but less stats

thats it

in sp u dont really need anything more than mediums as the stats from heavy are just over the top, ai will never put anything in your way anyway that would need the amount of stats u will have with heavy and heavy tanks are mostly used for tds and not spgs

also in general spgs and tds are better than just using normal tank without role change

[inner sparrow]

arty in general is bad at pushing, its alright at defending but ur better off with pure inf or other batallions

still the problem ur losing will mainly not be from ur template but other reasons

[shadow kindle]

I think is from the template

just used "nocb" on console

and using the first 30 div

without changes

[inner sparrow]

it isnt against ai, u can win with that division vs ai anyways

bigger problem prob like no combat modifiers stacked

bad stockpile, not enough divs, bad supplies and so on

[shadow kindle]

dunno

this games is way rare

[neat widget]

btw

[wintry matrix]

-# I cannot grasp on why Elephants are not good at naval invasions.

Nice chart/table. :o

[hasty belfry]

Literally me when I first played the game after I forgot to take my ADHD meds.

[flint crag]

Why does it show up as an inaccessible region even though I built a supply port?

[neat widget]

Based in Hiroshima

Yeah you have to do it manually now

[sleek remnant]

Best artillery and combat support subdoctrine? Idk if dlc adds any (I don’t have it) but all 6 of them (maybe except helicopter one but I can’t afford it) look underwhelming

[neat widget]

so you have ncns and gotterdamerung?

[sleek remnant]

I have gotterdamerung but not ncns

[neat widget]

You guys have subdoctrines?

[sleek remnant]

Yes

But I think not all of them

Tbh I expected more but this feels kinda bland

[neat widget]

In any case if you're running singleplayer SPGs then self-propelled support is best
anti-tank frontline is nice for multiplayer infantry builds
I think the best for special forces would be siege artillery, with air cavalry being a nice second

[stiff moth]

Does anyone have a good medium TD template for 41'

[sleek remnant]

Oh, special forces tree is same as before, so sub doctrines there

[stiff moth]

Field engineering

[neat widget]

should be the same as before, get high velocity cannon 2 + 2 small cannon/hmg turrets + radio 3 + easy maintenance, with as many armor clicks as possible

[stiff moth]

that one isn't that great for choices tbh

[sleek remnant]

Only these six

[stiff moth]

Field Engineering

the rest are quite useless

[neat widget]

Field Engineering is the most useless of them all

[stiff moth]

no

[neat widget]

Siege Artillery literally gives a 10% buff to your entire army

[stiff moth]

yeah but you need to get it first

[neat widget]

You can just get super-heavy howitzer you know

Not that hard

The helicopter one is more difficult tbh

[sleek remnant]

I’m a minor nation

[stiff moth]

I don't like wasting time on those projects, they are only quick as the big 4

[neat widget]

engineer company buffs the stats of literally one support company and then a bit on another and that's it

[stiff moth]

if you can't get them then FE is the lowest effort

or ATF for defense

[neat widget]

I'd honestly prefer no doctrine and holding onto my mastery than resorting to field engineering

[neat widget]

which minor nation, and is this singleplayer

[stiff moth]

the org is nice

[neat widget]

Yeah but you aren't using AT in singleplayer

[stiff moth]

eh I don't like the support sub tree

[neat widget]

Yeah the support tree is meh in general

[sleek remnant]

I just saw that it also buffs soft attack by %5 for inf (and %10 for line/support artillery but ig that’s not so useful)

[stiff moth]

Do you know what is a good td template in this update Livadeia?

I want to try out TD's as italy

[neat widget]

No

It buffs engineer soft attack by 5%, so it only buffs the engineer company and not any other units

[sleek remnant]

Xibei san ma
But tbh I don’t think most minor nations can get special projects done (and flame tanks and assault engineers would be better?) so I’d prefer something else that doesn’t rely on them
But ig they all kinda suck xD

[sleek remnant]

And yes single player

[neat widget]

Yeah then artillery and combat support is just not worth investing into

Just do infantry, operations, and then special forces

[gusty briar]

Has their been changes to naval XP gain for ships? Or is it bugged?

My subs seem to be gaining absolutely nothing from convoy raiding, have a task force of fleet submarines thats been active and sinking convoys for a bout a year and its still all green

[neat widget]

huh

idk

[boreal hamlet]

It seems there are a number of naval bugs

[trail reef]

where can i check faction total factories

[inner sparrow]

mobile reacon is great btw

for attacking units

[inner sparrow]

this is so mid

its crazy how mid it is

[neat widget]

i know right

20% movement may be worth it when you're in northern europe and the frontline is super sparse

[inner sparrow]

if u want to try tds

tho tds are mostly used for mp and like nothing burger for sp

spgs better for sp

[inner sparrow]

nah its poop, theres better stuff

[stiff moth]

what about the tank destroyer design itself?

[inner sparrow]

in mp its just hv3 or hc3 with radio 3 and 3 secondary guns (forgor their name)

u can do like the same

hc3 better as ur only be facing inf anyways

bad quality and a design from old patch

[stiff moth]

will this do?

[inner sparrow]

but this is what u do

[inner sparrow]

change the turret and rest sure

tbh u would rather wanna produce a convert till u have atleast gun from at2 but

your decision

[stiff moth]

Ye I am producing a medium atm

[inner sparrow]

I mean sure thats fine too, tbh I don’t recommend doing them in sp bc theres better options but ur gonna be fine enough with it

[stiff moth]

I just want to try them out tbh

[inner sparrow]

go for it then

[neat widget]

Not really

If you can't do special projects then air cavalry and siege artillery are out

If you don't have the ic to do tanks or armored cars then mobile recon and assault + self-propelled support are out

if you aren't using artillery then fire concentration and flying batteries are out

And if you aren't using anti-tank then anti-tank frontline is out

The issue isn't that field engineering isn't poop (it is), it's that somehow the other doctrines are worse

[neat widget]

If you're Italy you should be able to get high velocity cannon 2 from the focus tree

this part of the focus tree spawns in so many tank guns

[stiff moth]

ye I'm on my way through it atm, I used mt and navy to defeat the allies

but the USSR seems quite insane atm

[trail reef]

is this for every faction? cus i want people everywhere

[stiff moth]

they pushed Germany back from the start

[neat widget]

Just spend one star and remove it

[trail reef]

oh i can remove laws

what is faction manifest

[neat widget]

Yeah you can

[night tangle]

new update makes invading the uk impossible

have to paradrop now which is shit

[neat widget]

Yeah

[night tangle]

impossible to get a port if they called in all their divisions from thei colonies

[neat widget]

or you have like 100 dockyards

[neat widget]

just paradrop 20 of them in northern England

20 36-width paratroopers

[night tangle]

at the port

ot next to it

i can do it from ireland to

[neat widget]

both

[night tangle]

they joined mittlereuropa faction

[neat widget]

How did you get ireland

nice

yeah that's perfect

[night tangle]

cuz uk went facist

on historical

[neat widget]

just send 2-3 paratroopers to every tile on and next to a port

and you probably do this with both newcastle and Liverpool

[inner sparrow]

if u play a country that has the issues of not being able to take anything else u have bigger problems and the moment u have to choose an arty doctrine u will be far enough in the game so that the other options will be viable again

[neat widget]

Yeah pretty much

[neat widget]

Did it work or are you still working on the paratroopers

[night tangle]

not enough air wings

[little warren]

can someone tell me wtf they have done with ironman mode ? i got the achievement on italy and it says i have it on steam but i dont ?!?

[neat widget]

How many transport aircraft do you have

[night tangle]

not enough

ive got like

5 mils on them#

im changing that tho

[narrow grail]

Does cavalry get any nerfs on naval invasion just for being cavalry?

[night tangle]

ok got a port

[restive silo]

Gentlemen, I’m going to be honest with you… I’m completely scared. It turns out I’m getting the new doctrine system, the new focus trees for Japan and other Asian countries, as well as their new colors… the problem is that I haven’t bought the new DLC.

[sleek remnant]

Free update

[neat widget]

Yes

-40%

[sleek remnant]

Though there should only be historical japan tree

[neat widget]

the doctrine system seems to be fore everyone from what I've heard, plus you get all the historical trees and yes the colors

[stiff moth]

this ok?

[night tangle]

tanks couldnt push

rage quit

gg

shit game

[restive silo]

“Oh, so it’s completely normal, I don’t have a virus or anything.”

[sleek remnant]

Does special forces doctrine get any rework too? Or is it the same as before
Because for me, it’s the old one

[neat widget]

Yeah I think rangers is a dlc feature

[stiff moth]

same as before

[sleek remnant]

I think you only get japan historical because my china trees are same as before

[stiff moth]

oh ye rangers are new

[neat widget]

do you see khotan ma

do you see rangers in the special forces doctrine or the tech trees

[restive silo]

Which specific focus?

Stupid Question

[narrow grail]

Ok my bad for roleplaying cavalry on Mapuche Chile

[neat widget]

You're naval invading as mapuche chile?

[narrow grail]

Yes

[restive silo]

nop i dont see any rangers

[sleek remnant]

Free update has:
historical japan tree
New colors
Doctrine rework

Doesn’t have:
any new Chinese countries or trees
Ahistorical japan trees (only the old ones)
Rangers
New faction mechanics

So yea, you’re fine

I might’ve missed some stuff but these should be the main ones

[narrow grail]

The first country I took after declaring war on imperialism was Mexico, because for some reason all countries below Mexico can be reorganized after they capitulate even in spite of joining Allies during the war, but with Mexico/USA/Canada it doesn't work, so I decided to take Mexico first, got ok with it, even invasion went okayish but took quite much time. But in Venezuela I couldn't even land, tried to take it after Mexico and Bolivia because it was 1940 already so declaring war on Uruguay made it join Allies.

[trail reef]

is it not possible to get the corruption in the armed forces fully gone

[restive silo]

Thanks, you saved me from having a heart attack.

[neat widget]

Ah I see

I mean you should probably take all the democratic countries first before they join the allies

[narrow grail]

Uruguay was the first democratic one I tried to take

and very it joins

[neat widget]

huuuuh

uruguay should be like the second country you take right?

[narrow grail]

3rd

After Mexico and Bolivia, Bolivia is very easy to take so why not.

[neat widget]

sure

[narrow grail]

I'll try to do some things later

Reorganize some divs from cavalry to infantry and execute naval invasions with them

Take Uruguay 2nd right after Mexico or even 1st and then Mexico. Later maybe Brazil and then Venezuela to make it put more divisions onto border with my Brazil holy.

That save has all dlcs except the NCNS

Infantry is less punished on naval invasions than cavalry, isn't it?

[neat widget]

yeah

of course that's only while landing

if you land and then attack into a port there's 0% penalty

[slow finch]

hii can someone help me learn production I am semi new? I am in the help VC thanks

[neat widget]

I think that's why you've been able to successfully invade Mexico but not Venezuela

What on?

Hello

Hello, yes I can help you @slow finch

Yes that would be right

Although is this with 4-year plan or prioritize economic growth?

for the former you basically want to be building mils immediately

ah I see

Yeah then the switching to mils in 1937-38 sounds about right

4-year plan basically prioirtizes mil construction in exchange for later game pain, and as you've said this is suppressed by conquering places and taking their gold

Wait what did you say @slow finch?

Yeah you can probably do that

[narrow grail]

I think it's thanks to Mexican AI having shittier divisions, I didn't even support invasion into port after landing onto tile next to it, because they both landed basically at the same time. I will check Venezuelan div templates if intelligence or even vision on the map will be good enough to just click on them

[neat widget]

Interwar mediums are fine

[neat widget]

Yeah mexican AI probably does have weaker divisions, or actually less divisions near each port since Venezuela has a lot less coastline than Mexico but around the same number of divisions

My microphone just doesn't work on this computer and idk why

Yes I'm watching

[trail reef]

what should paratroopers template look like

[faint forge]

anybody help?

[viscid abyss]

Why do my troops capture territory for allied nations. I’m deep inside the ussr but for some reason all the land south of Kiev is being captured by Italy n

Even when it’s my forces

[trail reef]

because ur attacking from their land

[viscid abyss]

Ah thanks

[trail reef]

u can ask them for land near the soviet border and then lands u take later on should go to u

but it dosent really matter

[viscid abyss]

Also how do peace conferences work, when I beat the allies I lost all the territory I captured and had to demand it back, but Italy also demanded everything and I ended up keeping less than I captured in the first place

[trail reef]

thats exactly how it works and how many points u get is based on war score. i have 39% of the war participation so i will get around 39% of all the points

and it will vary so i will probably get more

[viscid abyss]

I see

[onyx trout]

I dont want to leaen navy, so what should i build. I mean i understand the basics like patrol and strike force attack and shiet, but i dont want to built 10 diffrent types of boats when incan just build one type and customize it so i have naval superiority

[neat widget]

wait until your divisions are equipped

[viscid abyss]

Italy basically did nothing other than invade Greece and take casualties in Africa yet it still got every British colony 😂

[neat widget]

build trucks to get supply in western argentina

[trail reef]

crusiers and destroyers

and prolly a few battleships

[neat widget]

@supple sonnet we're about to enter a civil war

they're doing kaiser germany

They should bypass

[neat widget]

I see Wolf :)

[hexed tiger]

whats a good SF divison for 1936?

[neat widget]

I mean you could do 26-32 width mountaineers, that should be good

maybe you choose to go down the rangers route intsead tbh

Yeah basically #727260126481744033

Oh this is funny

it doesn't seem to switch you until you click the butto xd

[trail reef]

i have no guns but 9m manpower and needs troops what can i do to get guns

i will do anything

[hexed tiger]

SF as in superior firepower

portugal's templates in 1936 arnt great

[plush dagger]

I have a whole route secured, yet I can't get my units across, what am I doing wrong?

[neat widget]

superior firepower is the defensive doctrine now

it's basically what mass mob once were

[onyx trout]

No submarines?

[neat widget]

in this case take the large infantry tactics and make either 11/0s or 21/0s

[trail reef]

if u want to convoy raid in deep sea then yes

[hasty belfry]

Assuming I wanted to build coastal defense ships for larding purposes, what would the best way to go about building them be?

[onyx trout]

Oh so destroyers and cruisers for superiority and subs for convoy raid

[trail reef]

pretty much but

submarines only really work in deep sea

like the atlantic

[neat widget]

naval bombers work too

Especially good on the shallower oceans

[onyx trout]

Oh. So they dont work when trying to get something with naval in britain?

[neat widget]

don't forget to put some fighters in the air with them to provide detection

[onyx trout]

I feel like best way to trully get superiority on naval is with navy but is this way of thinking correcr?

[trail reef]

tbh i never do anything with any navy stuff i just let it happen

[neat widget]

I mean navy is the only way to get naval superiority

[onyx trout]

I never open the navy manu except when trying to naval invade

[neat widget]

and at that nearly empty carriers or nearly empty escort carriers

[onyx trout]

Why is the navy system so hard tho. Im trynna play hoi 4 not a naval simulator

[neat widget]

plus for mio it doesn't really matter but raiding mio is good and space efficient design really helps for supremacy because the new formula relies on range (+25% from space efficient design) and number of planes carried (+1 deck size from space efficient design)

[hexed tiger]

hmm so then what is the best doctrine for a nation with a terrible industry at the start?

[onyx trout]

Learning nuclear physics would be easier at this point

[onyx trout]

Battleplan or superior forepower. I feel like those are more beneficial if your the one attacking and don't have manpower

[trail reef]

what are u even trying to naval invade

[hexed tiger]

im playing portugal so yeah, SFP would probably help the most?

[onyx trout]

Britain

[trail reef]

send pic

[onyx trout]

Not playing rn

[trail reef]

u could try invading from norway

they usually never have navy there

[neat widget]

Grand battleplan
go for large unit tactics or if you're really short of manpower, irregulars or individual excellence
and then for the operations subdoctrine go for desperate defense

[onyx trout]

@trail reef can you share a good template. Can be spacemarines i dont care

[trail reef]

for naval invading?

[onyx trout]

In general

[trail reef]

i am using this rn

[neat widget]

well the naval invading templates are somewhat different than the general templates

[onyx trout]

Is this for attack or defense

[trail reef]

both

[neat widget]

last one's an assault company right?

[onyx trout]

Can you send

[trail reef]

yea

[onyx trout]

How to get assault company?

Its not on the reasearch thing

[trail reef]

all my troops are using it and i am not being pushed

[trail reef]

i think i got it through a focus

[onyx trout]

As germany?

[hexed tiger]

then whats the best main doctrine for start of the game portugal? (keep in mind im going kingdom reunited)

[trail reef]

chaina

[onyx trout]

Just go battleplan. Battleplan doctrine never fails

[hexed tiger]

i do want to switch to a mobile force after i have the MP reserves of brazil

[onyx trout]

It's kinda funny that ive played this gane for months (with breaks) and yet know so little about the mechanics. Mostly i see red bubbles which i find interesting since i have supply and stuff and equiptment

[trail reef]

then do that

i have like none of those and still see green bubbles

[onyx trout]

Are you on what difficulty?

[trail reef]

normal

[onyx trout]

And does the chinese focus tree come freely

Or do i need the dlc

[trail reef]

u need dlc

[onyx trout]

Oh my days thats like 40€ for a chinese tree😂

Or 38 something dollars

[trail reef]

i think it adds more to japan also idk i havent checked yet

[onyx trout]

They keep pumping up these dlcs. Its so hard to keep up i still miss the 2 older dlcs. Grave yard of empires and the one with brazil focus tree

[trail reef]

paradox model

they know people are gonna buy it either way

[onyx trout]

Should just start making mods that have the same content.

Its more ethical than keep making these exspensive dlcs

[trail reef]

honestly yeah

they do this with every game

[onyx trout]

Even with kings crusader and victoria?

[trail reef]

i would guess so

[onyx trout]

I mean as long as the players keep paying they dont see a reason not to

[trail reef]

but atleast cities skyline and prison architect

yup victoria has a butt ton of dlcs to buy

[onyx trout]

Hoi 4 is a good game even though its old, but so much content is locked behind a dlc

[trail reef]

those damn swedes

[onyx trout]

Should I just start to play kaiserreich or the one with the man looking for aleksei and something to do with verifying clocks?

Are the kaiserreich mods and the aleksei man mod hard?

[trail reef]

i havent played kaiserreich in years so cant really remember

[onyx trout]

I feel like the mods that actually change the gameplay is like a new system that hou need to learn

I haven't even learned logistical things just 2 truck icon is good

[trail reef]

just figure out tanks and planes and ur good

[onyx trout]

Should I have a diffrent template for tank units?

[trail reef]

yea

[onyx trout]

Avial is easier since just drag the planes and assing then

Do you have a spare you could share?

Arigago onegaisemas

Arigaro

Arugato

Arigato

[trail reef]

tanks should be something like this and just chose whatever companies u want

[onyx trout]

Medium tanks or large?

[trail reef]

i think it goes for both

[balmy dawn]

What's the difference between "stability" and "base stability"?

[onyx trout]

Base stability is like the bar which it can down i think.

[onyx trout]

Thanks for the help. I will not take your advice for granted.

[trail reef]

np

[balmy dawn]

I woulndt p[air Mediums with Motorized that late in the game. The speed of Motorized is wasted on Mediums. And most people go heavier on the ration of Tank/Infantry. 13/8 was the popular standard for a long time (though thats also a huge division)

[trail reef]

time of game was not specified

[young hill]

do you mean high mech low tank?

cos thats what happens with amtrac

mech iirc is just 9/9

[lament moat]

Is it better to subdue the army as Japan and go to war with China later or is it better to launch the invasion with the marco polo bridge incidnet.

[young hill]

it is, look at the date

1947

medium tank 1947 A

[trail reef]

dawg thats my game and thats just the name of the template

[young hill]

okay

[trail reef]

not like i am using tanks

[young hill]

support companies r meh, id rather have assault engineer, field hospital, flame tank, light armoured recon (not the armoured car), logistics

[neat widget]

I wanna speak but I have no mouth rn

this division isn't particularly good

[trail reef]

yall are lowk mean rn

[neat widget]

My HOI4 is glitching

Sorry about that tbh

[lament moat]

I just looked at it, I'm not that great at the game but that seems like a lot of manpower and fuel for a fairly slow tank div.

[hexed tiger]

when do the carlists show up?

[trail reef]

dawg i just showed him a possibility and i told him to chose others companies

[lament moat]

Usually around the time someone starts winning the war. Early to mid 1937 in my experience.

[balmy dawn]

I've seen a lot of little glitches pop up recently.

My autosave games, often will "lose" the UI bar for land units

[hexed tiger]

it is mid-1937

cause i want to support them for my focus tree

my issue is it feels like they only show up like 15% of the time

[neat widget]

Don't let the Nationalists fully conquer the north by like 1938 or something I forget

They should appear soon if the nationalists didn't take bilbao yet

[hexed tiger]

its purely rng for portugal as i cant send volunteers until the carlists exist

[stiff moth]

yeah tds are quite mid for sp

oh well

[hexed tiger]

trying to get a perfect run of portugal monarchist

which is form iberia then form United kingdom of portugal and brazil

[indigo orchid]

how large are crash reports usually?

[neat widget]

Yeah pretty much, maybe if you can support the republicans and then hold bilbao to the best of your ability but idk

[hexed tiger]

thats the Issue the game doesnt let me send volunteers until the carlists appear

[neat widget]

Your template for invading Norway can look like this

Alternatively replace light armored recon with rangers for additional attack on mountains or snow (if you went down that route)

[trail reef]

at this point should i just sleep

Marines for East Asia

[twilit fossil]

how do I get competent generals while still purging as the soviet union? do I Just have to get them experiecne through battle?

[neat widget]

And here are D-Day marines

[neat widget]

Yeah

Especially grind Vasily Kuznetsov

[twilit fossil]

is their anyway to remove traits or is it once I upgrade it thats permanent?

[neat widget]

i don't think so tbh

[hasty belfry]

Is this a bug? It looks like he’s meant to be a chief of airforce.

[cerulean abyss]

is paying mefo bills early or the rushing autarky path better overall?

[hasty belfry]

From what I’ve heard, if you’re going historical Germany the autarky path is good but the other economic path is better for non-historical.

[cerulean abyss]

alr

[stiff moth]

You can go MEFO, rush price control focus, cancel MEFO after you get them and use the decisions to pay down MEFO. This is a better long run strategy than either

If you want to go historical and have more fun MEFO is better, I generally use the method above for ahistorical since you’re further behind from the civil war

[cerulean abyss]

I'll probably do MEFO

Doing historical germany

[hexed tiger]

got sick of rng, so imma try hungary, since that always goes semi-well
hows this for 1938?

[edgy pendant]

Where’s the rest?

[edgy iron]

no moar CAS stuff for medium airframe? or do i gotta unlock it in a doctrine or summ?

[edgy pendant]

Anti tank

[neat widget]

Rest of what?

[keen hemlock]

Do sams act like aa or like rockets

[neat widget]

I believe they act like state AA

[neat widget]

Oh your looking at main armament

CAS weaponry can't be main armament on medium planes

So click a secondary slot

[edgy iron]

O

im so high iq for not realizing tyty

[neat widget]

np

[left glacier]

I like using rockets with medium bombers

[keen hemlock]

Can you put them in your ribs

[stark bough]

When I click the button that should open the tank design tab, it shows a very simple tab, lacking the features we're familiar with. Is the design something from DLC?

[neat widget]

idk tbh

[serene karma]

Yes tank design is nsb

[balmy dawn]

So, can we submit proper bug reports through the discord?

[stark bough]

Is Bulgaria a good game for a beginner? If not, what game with a similar feel would you recommend for a beginner?

[wild rune]

Germany

[vagrant chasm]

Best way to go about South America ? Weaker divisions and horrible river and mountain debuffs.

[glacial steeple]

like AA but you lose them when firing and have awful range

[wild rune]

The rest of south america is like that as well so easy win

[glacial steeple]

i tested SAMs and the only kind of useful place theyd get full range over is new zealand

because its small

they dont really have the range to cover any state

and if they do, usually the state doesnt have enough factories to justify the cost

[wild rune]

Whats a SAM?

[wild rune]

@glacial steeple

[serene karma]

Surface to air missile

From the rocket site building

[wild rune]

Ohhh

I forgot those were a thing in hoi4

I never use them

The SAM

Not the rocket building

[vagrant chasm]

how do i stop trading my civs like cancel a trade

[wild rune]

Just cancel it

[glacial steeple]

AA missile

[wild rune]

AA missiles are not real

[glacial steeple]

if youve ever done the project in hoi its like

[stark bough]

Too much micromanagement, I don't like it.

[glacial steeple]

wow

its a worse version of state AA

it uses a build slot and every time you fire your IC just evaporates

[wild rune]

False

[stark bough]

What

[wild rune]

Germany is fun

Its pretty much almost all macro

[glacial steeple]

"only" 30 IC each

[wild rune]

You don't even have to micro

[glacial steeple]

so you need 100 per full rocket thingy

[stark bough]

[glacial steeple]

with 400km range

[wild rune]

Against vanilla AI there is no reason to micro

[stark bough]

But I don't want to play with a "leading" country; I want a country similar to Bulgaria, a small/simple country but good for beginners, and that is on the axis.

[wild rune]

Yeah AA missiles are stupid

[wild rune]

Hungary?

Or even romania

[stark bough]

Which DLCs should I use?

For hungary

[wild rune]

The standard ones

Idk

[glacial steeple]

range over baltics for reference

[stark bough]

🙏🏻

🥀

[wild rune]

Thats the medium AA right?

[glacial steeple]

its the SAM

[wild rune]

Idk what ur asking

[glacial steeple]

keep in mind this is also well at the time nations should have supersonic tech etc

same range as interwar french fighters

lol

not stopping anything

[wild rune]

Fr

[alpine dove]

if best naval strat is to deathstack everything -subs into one fleet, and I should only have 4 carriers in one fleet, where do I put spare carriers?

[glacial steeple]

would not recommend

this is after firing like 1-2K SAMs

at lesst they dont cost manpower ig

[alpine dove]

does air mp usage actually mean anything?

u lose at most like 10k men?

[glacial steeple]

i mean its the only hoi4 resource that just scales infinitely

so late game kind of?

like say you have norway with 3mil core pop

[noble rain]

is it possible to help a puppet get more autonomy as a different country thats not the overlord?

[glacial steeple]

and sweden 6mil

they both go up 100% because of monthly growth

the difference would still be 100%

but now itd be 6 mil to 12 mil

so in that sense lategame manpower does matter

[alpine dove]

but with the ic not wasted by creating sams you can save much more mp by creating better tanks, or outfitting everyone with hospitals?

[glacial steeple]

yes

or like nuclear missiles lol

that actually attack the enemy

SAMs are meant to be a counter to those but like

it doesnt rlly work

[alpine dove]

so it needs a buff

[wild rune]

+500 weekly manpower

[glacial steeple]

doesnt stop the scaling issue?

maybe it does in that specific example

but for china who starts with 500mil core pop theyd be at 1 billion

[wild rune]

India versus china that doesn't matter

[glacial steeple]

and thats the place where you really see a huge disparity

india used to only have 300mil

and now its less because they dont core everything

might be wrong maybe it was lower idk

i thought it was 300 or so anyway

[glacial steeple]

because lategame is infinite IC anyway so your limiting factor is being able to scale in mp

[wild rune]

More nuclear missiles

[glacial steeple]

its outside the scope of the game anyway

its just like, silly

[feral stone]

Yesterdays update only applies with the dlc?

[worthy quarry]

from what i understand, exercising divisions Regular and above gives u mastery progress?

[noble rain]

yes

though it is little

so it'll take a while

[glacial steeple]

not really it just takes a large army

[noble rain]

as a luxembourg main i forgot you can have large armies if you play literally any other nation

[wild rune]

Get this guy off LUX😭

Play Kumul Khanate

[glacial steeple]

there are in fact worse nations

[noble rain]

oh yeah

france

[glacial steeple]

like guam

very bad

[wild rune]

Like sahara nation

[worthy quarry]

do u get more for continuing to exercise lv3+ or is it the same

[noble rain]

same i think

[iron veldt]

can someone explain why road to 56 mod is asking for “united & ready” dlc to play

haven’t had the problem until now

[glacial steeple]

its s free dlc that comes with the game, but that adds content that the mod might break without

[iron veldt]

it says i need to download it in the game but i don’t have an option to do so

[iron veldt]

nvm i’m dumb asf thank you

[vagrant chasm]

how i kick ally planes out my airport

[blazing plume]

Does anyone know how to do naval invasions in ncns im playing as japan and trying to naval invasion china but its not working

[ornate gazelle]

It's still some of the same.

You still have dominance?

[stiff moth]

Patrol and have a fleet with strike force in the region, set up an invasion plan, when you have dominance launch and use a fleet to support it

[blazing plume]

The ships are just stuck in port

[blazing plume]

Ok thanks

[ornate gazelle]

And your supply line is good?

For singleplayer you need to do it automatically. If you playing mp I would recommend it to do it your self

[blazing plume]

Yeah the supply is good

[neat widget]

maybe they're in the wrong port

or rather they're supplied from the wrong port

[blazing plume]

I got it working

[fading ibex]

How Am I meant to get naval superiority if i run out of fuel the milisecond i put my task force on patrol

[inner sparrow]

by not setting all of it on patrol and only a few ships while the rest stays in the sea zone on another mission

[fading ibex]

Which kind of ships

does it matter ?

Also how do u know hyrax

[inner sparrow]

not that much

[inner sparrow]

from some random mc server probably

[twilit fossil]

how do I fix my fuel issues as italy?

[glacial steeple]

trade, dont use navy

[deep stream]

how do i get these priks to pull out of the hole?

[hexed parcel]

Push the gap ebtween hole and ur frobtline with both saides

[deep stream]

i dont want to make it wider how do i get them out?

[wild rune]

pull back slowly

[deep stream]

how

how do i pull them out?

[inner sparrow]

delete ur frontline, draw fallback line

or delete front and manually micro them out

but if u have a frontline ur divs will just run back to it

and u have like 7 different fronts

[wild rune]

this

unite all your troops

into one field marshal line

[inner sparrow]

but u have bigger problems like those useless divs dying, ur on 1000pp, 0mp, 3 research slots and no industry in 1942

[wild rune]

i didnt notice that

this is my current soviet build

[wild rune]

I just didnt feel like putting more manpower on the field so I didnt

[inner sparrow]

thats fine, ur stab is nuked idk how lmao and ur infustry is alright, enough for vanilla ger

[inner sparrow]

and that picture should say what?

u could have tools 5 in 40 btw

[deep stream]

i dont know what thaT is

[inner sparrow]

the thing in ur picture or tools 5?

[gusty briar]

So theres also a bug now where u can get attacked by a divisions from a country ur at war with, from a country that ur not at war with

If they have military access wtf

[wild rune]

this is why my stab is slightly down

[deep stream]

thats industry

[inner sparrow]

bro

[inner sparrow]

im asking you what u meant with this

ik what industry is, when I said u have a bad industry I meant ur factory count

242 is low

[deep stream]

how do i make it faster?

also i have no dlcs

[inner sparrow]

build civs till early 37, after only build mils. Focus on building in high infra state that have 100, 80% and then 60%, don’t build in 40%. Get war eco asap, free trade early is good.

[deep stream]

ok

[inner sparrow]

that explains a bit aswell

[deep stream]

ye

your guys plan failed

[fading ibex]

You never pulled the divisons out

[deep stream]

thats why im here

[fading ibex]

Also 70 divisions 😭

[deep stream]

i dont know how to pull them out

[fading ibex]

Fallback line

[inner sparrow]

fall back line and force retreat

last stand ur divs where u run into being encircled till u pulled out the rest

u can do last stand gens with 2w divs in them to not waste command power and last stand ur entire army

[deep stream]

i dont know how to do that

[inner sparrow]

look at a video then that explains micro mechanics if you don’t know

[deep stream]

i dont have dlc

[fading ibex]

You dont need it

for last stand

[deep stream]

i dont have last stand

[twilit fossil]

When you click the GenerL (not the Field Marshall) you should see a sword, shield and book/paper symbol (?) above the order bar.
Last stand is the shield.
Costs command power.
But makes your unit force to defend.
