they still use some armor tho
i saw some people go as far as making anti tank because of lategame crap
ai tank divs dont have much
yea mega lategame the ai kinda gets armor
but spgs should be fine
i mean piercing their stuff is cancer
support anti air does fine for a very long time
but then very lategame it becomes awful
i mean if ur a small country idk what you can even do against them at that point
like do u actually build AT
cause youre either going to spec into airforce or tanks
with like 3 research slots
late game and small country?
well idk maybe mid 40s on non historical
Line AA's no?
Like 2 or 3
even on lategame as a normal country what do you even do to pierce ai better
only for offensive divs?
@uncut narwhal what I lost in last 12 months all the battles were in Europe
i mean i usually just make very big mountaineers
and just use them
pure mountaineer battalions
like 34.2 whatever width
Yeah, or defnsive 9/2AA
but honestly using 18w late game isnt that great
36w is best
the combat reduction makes them less
but theyre 36 width basically
Any idea how the Allie’s and others still have 12 mio fielded in filed even after loosing 40 mio unlimited man power ?
no, theyre 34.2w just add more so theyre 36.4w or whatever
Soviets alone can probably mobilize around 40 million men and USA is I think around 25-30 million
True
Don't know about their famine Stuff but without it they should be able to get something ridiculous like 300 million
In short hoping to attrition your enemy by running him out of manpower is so WW1
So relying on destroying enemy man power isnnt realistic?
Not as the axis
You can as the Allies tho
Usually Germany has like 5 million losses in the east
the allies probably have a combined more than 1 billion core population
hello liv, hello patrick
If you can't break your enemy find single small weak points in the line and make small encirclements with good Divs. You'll whittle down your enemy slowly as the equipment loss of getting encircled is not well recoverable as long as you achieve it often enough.
Hiiii
that is basically my modus operandi
scraping the barrel is hell of a drug
well the ai is probably on all adults serve
which is still most of the way there
The US starts out with 124 million core population (adding puerto rico, alaska, and hawaii), so at 20% they can take as many as 25 million casualties
and their core population will be increasing from natural growth, so by the time you've killed 6 million of them it's probably higher
with scraping the barrel that becomes 31 million or more
exhausting the entire us manpower pool is just not feasible
so 30 million and 37 million respectively
I don't think the historical AI gets the 2% one
and although they ai doesnt do this, they can get 2.00% more and 20% factor more if they get a little bit of communist support
its at the start of the military tree
i could be wrong
Plus desperate defense and Women in the Army :D
fair, but idk if us ai is picking desperate defense
Probably not
ah, tought you meant the 2% pop from commie support
and women in the army only works on total mobilization i think
so that's a non-factor
yeah
is there a 20% factor one in the normal tree too or did i mix it up
and theres only one
wait i can check myself
okay i do have it wrong
irs mobilization speed
not factor
Can someone help me again I was told to make medium frames for naval bombers I’m loosing 10-15 of these everyday on port strike and barely doing any damage im very cl confused because was told this plane was to be used for destroying other naval
please a screenshot of the full design
and just screenshot on your pc gng
Also why is there only 100 planes in the attack
try just naval striking with them and not port striking
also what is the ideal range/speed for small fighters
Is port strike bad ?
this if you dont have the range mio
im not sure if there are like actual ideal numbers
is this decent
no bromite
too much engine
too much armor
why cannon?
ai tanks are horrible
dont use man
use henschel
make it spg
why sloped armor
no need
use howitzer instead
also take the armor that makes it cheaper
forgot the name mb
Can you please show the efficiency of those planes? Do they have full range and full supply?
@iron veldt this is what i usually have by war start
where is guderian and rommel in germann faction why i dont see them anymore .... just quit game 2 years
"Adopt New Panzer Doctrine" focus all the way to the left
you dont need the speed suspension, use henschel for design mio and go to 4 armor clicks
thank you
also whats your tank division?
Is the submarine detection glitch fixed with the new update
why is org so low?
i’m not sure
doctrines?
also add flame tanks
and replace support aa with light tank recon
as germany you should have full green air
armor spearhead, assault infantry, mission type tactics & field engineering
this is a tank division i used
chat can i beat japan as korea
true
16 factories in 1940
mission type tactics?
brooo
noo
grand assault
and most important
spg doctrine
gng
@hoary glen here
also individual excellence
i wanted a meme run where i play as kim il sung
i feel like i could beat japan by paradrop
except i have 5 mils
and 9 civs
these should be your doctrines
and 30 transports rn
getting shot down by aa
cant do anything against that iirc
i don’t have NCNS so i don’t have the first 2 unfortunately
ahhhh
ok thats not that great
i dont know how spg tanks behave without doctrine
still insane soft
just add 2 more mech
to make it 36w
what’s your flame tank template
😭😭😭
let me start it rq
i’m so bad at tank designs & shit
nah its ok
good he medium ?
always medium
But also there is a sea zone inbetween I don’t know if that matters ?
no its the aa in the uk
that will always shoot you down
no matter what you do
only goes away
if you bomb the aa
what about your light tank recon
can someone tell me why my hoi4 keeps crashing as soon as i start the time
decent early game ig
any mods? did you verify your files yet?
yea only ss i had
otherwise youd add stabilizers and just breakthrough max
You do the same with lights for armored recon
yep
sometimes i add a dozer blade to them
no idea if it actually helps defending
for inf bricks
idk
as the flame tank ?
just get the most breakthrough
that's pretty expensive
if you can fill your divisions with it then sure you can do that but if you have ic constraints then just build a cheaper tank
I have mods only 5 enabled spot opt fix fps map stop ai kick from faction undeletable divisions
How do i verify game files
Yea very expensive but works
switched out the stabilizers for ammunition storages
Disable all and go to steam and then properties
Up speed that shi so slow
Mhm?
it’s going into an SPG division though
Don't matter
Disable your mods and go to steam
Right click on hoi in steam and go to properties and to files and then verify
Thats it?
Yea then restart hoi and hope
Oh yh btw sm1 said that you can see why the game crashes and also how do i know what mods csuse issues
Yh 30 atleast tbh
Maybe ask in #tech-support idk
should go up once my doctrines fill in
If you get deorged too quick replace 2 tanks with mech
research heraeus tree requirement 50 civi factory to research and i already have 51 but i cant research that tree any can tell me why ?
Probably those factories are from trade
Go down to the price reduction focus
Those civs solve it for me after anschluss
Yo yk as romania i start out with literally nothing, should i use my starting army to roll hungary then switch to a 10/2?
Never line arty gng
What then as a filler
Try getting tanks or if not doable 36w mtns
I have like nothing at the start tho
Just use 18w inf then
only terrorists use line artillery
Is line arty shit bc it reduces org or is there smth else?
Try getting 36w sf tho
i stuck with anschluss too they dont let me research
Less hp than inf would give so more losses
Day one train 22 divs with 18 mils on guns
1st of may anschluss focus
the third requiment i really dont understand
Alr so what should my div template be after i roll hungary so i can invade greece?
36w special forces I'd go for
Your army should have 24x more divisions/manpower on field thst austria
Your army 24 times bigger than austrias
Wb the div itself what should it consist?
I want something manageable till i invade czechslovakia
Mountaineers prob
Do as many mountaineers
Fill the rest with inf
Wb the special ops points or wtv it is
What if it runs out
Special forces cap
Yh
Don't forget flame tanks and aa
If you can somehow get green air
I'd focus on mtns tho
How do you even get flame tanks as romania
Cant get a scientist
how much i need more can you tell me ?
Build a facility gng
Support aa yes?
No not really, restart and do what I told you, 1936 anschluss
ohhhhhhhh
Build facility and them scientist and then wait for breakthrough point
Alr
Thx
Ill do trial and error from now on
Maybe even line if the ai has a lot of air
Like what i should do after the territory focuses
Save your game and start a Soviet run
Idfk how to load a game it only says continue or load latest game
Like 9ld
Old
Brother
Your first day on the job?
If your in game
Press esc
Then save game
And save
Its my first day on the job too
It’s very hard to destroy navry wtf
Takes ages to do port strike
With naval bombers when I use land based bomber
you have 55% efficiency. That's terrible.
No it's bc UK has max State AA. You want to bomb that with Strats and Tacs first.
At what type of facility?
Can someone explain Navy to me
I suck at it and I'm doing a really interesting run that requires a lot of navy
You got capitals and screens
Capitals are your carriers, battleships, battlecruisers, heavy cruisers, and coastal defense ships.
Screens are your light cruisers and destroyers.
Subs are their own thing and you use them to raid convoys.
Screens protect capitals, capitals protect the carriers.
3 Screens minimum to defend a capital, 1 capital to defend a carrier minimum.
Patrol to gain dominance
Convoy raid to reduce enemy dominance
Strike force to multiply your existing dominance.
Focus on making light cruisers with high amounts of light attack. They will vaporize enemy screens allowing you to kill the capitals with torpedoes or your other capital ships
Ahhh
Keep your subs in a separate fleet from your surface ships
there are also support and repair ships
I think what you can do is improve relations while boosting popularity
If you haven't done that alr
i think bosting commie popularity will help but not 100% on that
U got a j*b?
what designer i should pick for medium tank
depends on what your looking for
speed? less cost? more power?
i dont think germann need less cost so maybe speed and more power ?
then chose the desiner that gives you more power and or speed as i said its all dependent on what your trying to go for
Infantry tank designer
What is it henschel? They’re the best
always henschel for production (SPG mio is good too if you have relevant upgrades) and damler or, better yet, skoda as production MIO
Anything but Man imao
Man that’s crazy
good one man
how do i fix this?
more conquest
how?
Did you convert all your civs to mils lol
i think i accidnely did
With your 127 civs (a lot from trade) youd need to get down to 15% consumer goods.. gl
Interested to see how you get out of that without destroying mils
There is the war bonds decision thats -20% but idk if thats of total or 20% of your currently required, never taken it
did you the artkuary achieved focus?
where would i find statistics for what the ai does when you send them a decison, specifcally the hispanic empire decisons?
/j
Ok well technically a military facility
It was a joke but sure
Wild
can anyone help me
<@&846894118219022336>
Absolutely cursed marine design, but i didn't expect to see a +49% amphibious attack from that
would 30 width be better for a forest division?
Pioneers op for it
Curious about widths as well, why wouldnt you go 38 widths for 60 width terrain if youre already going for 36, (60+30)*1.33 can fit 3 units of 39.9 width. From what i understand theres no reason to go 36?
why are there only so many marines
also
howe many marine commandos do you need to make a division be able to retreat from anywhere
For the same 2 adjacent tile attack, it can fit 4 if theyre 29.9 width, but a 1:1 attack needs 26.6 so isnt 26 width ideal?
amphibious bonus caps out at 50%, no reason to add more marines when you reach the cap
ah
What is the at for
Also
Should I use amtracks over mech there
Actually
3rd question
Why do I see line support companies in marine divs a lot
Why is that
this game is mad confusing
im doing tutorial how do i make italy lead by bordiga
or gramsci
Say wallahi

replace the two anti tank with one forest pioneer
help me
wdym
what do i do to make italy flip from fascist to communist
I recomend to put 1 artillery
Ok
btw u should read the guide in pins about why line artillery is bad
Ok
use ur focus tree
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1096634574353735771/1450315815697121300/image.png?ex=69f16edc&is=69f01d5c&hm=14a9e5b1e95a9ad1f978b61e5e3dc80de166dbd1e0ddbaa92993997de1f51ed8
replace the two anti tank with one forest pioneer
more stats more losses per battle less hp essentially
Why 36 and not 38
to be fair these templates were made before 38-width templates were that common
Terrain widths havent changed since the new widths i think, just wondering why 36 was standard to begin with
But youre saying 38 IS common? Ive only seen people push for 36 but may be confirmation bias
people saying 36 are stuck in pre ncns
38 is common for high stats units like tanks where you can sacrifice like 2-3 percent of soft attack and breakthrough for more survivability
36 is common on plains tiles for stats maxxing i gather because the ideal would be 35 but yeah
Hi guys
I don't fully understand the nuances here
I've seen 34 done for some reason in asian tiles for some reason
Which months
doesn't really matter, but you should probably do it in late may early june i say
I see
Is 1942 alright
Cuz I’m tryna take over USA rn
It’s 1941 May
By the time I finish it’s gna be October ish
Probably too late to attack ussr right
Should I wait?
yeah the ussr still suffers debuffs
and if you literally have the us
it really does not matter
Yeah i dont get that either, from what i gather max division in combat for tanks on plains is 34 width, unless the exceeding combat width oebalty isnt a linear scaling?
(70+35)*1.33 = 139. Can fit 4x 34w tanks in that sucker
maximum combat width for tanks in plains is actually, uh... 46.5 width
But only 3 36w tanks
that might be part of it, idk
wdym
that said, typically the calculations are attacking one tile versus one tile because that's like at least around half of micro cases
@austere roost could you help me understand why 34w isnt ideal tank design for plains?
there are multiplayer builds where people would do tanks or even special forces with more than 36 width, leveraging the fact that they still fit into forests below 39.9 width but they have more HP
the trade off is of course less soft attack, defense, and breakthrough
I'm doing some weird ass Singapore run am I insane
Then we're back to the point of why do we stop at 36 XD, why not go up to 38 or even 40
what mod
Technically "ideal" is 35 but it's difficult to get 35 so ppl just do 36
No mod
oh
Like at that point you might as well just create templates for different terrain
Like 32 for desert
Is that because max "exceeding width" penalty isnt worth it? Isnt ideal width 34.9
I took over Malaya and kinda forgot to do navy
nope, desert is plains combat width
32 would be for marshes and mountains
Wait then why did I hear that for North Africa you should do 32
because there's mountains in north africa
You lose linear percentage of atk for every extra percentage of combat width capped at 33%
Keep in mind as your division grows, it also gains stats, so a max-width division only 10.89% less stats than a division at optimal width for stats
Morocco and Algeria are largely mountains, and Cyrenaica has mountains in the most critical places like Tobruk and around Benghazi
Yeah but 35 as "ideal" is also because it allows you to put more divisions in battle on multi-direction attacks in non plain terrain
If you go 40+ width fighting in rough terrain will be weird
the humble 50w marsh deleter
i mean that's probably true tbh
it is, got used in a few games on rb
doubt it would be that good elsewhere
for africa too as ger
oh clown ur here
i need some help with templates
im redoing the pins
esp with all the game changes recently
pls help thxx
what templates specifically
people must really hate marshes
whats the new mass mob brick
for big inf its still just 36w
nothing changed there
small one this
but in sp u can add support arty
I imagine to start we need a tank division, some defensive infantry divisions, and offensive special forces divisions
also we should probably do singleplayer for pins here
yeah inf designs don’t really change from mp to sp
just add in support arty instead of signals or engi
but is there a mass mob type of doctrine now
sfp
i havent really played the game recently tbh
fair, although i might take away both signals and engineers here
no, cw reduction is from large unit tactics
i do focus on singleplayer
reinforce rate isn’t really a thing u get from doctrines
yeah that note was meant for clown the art because they posted an mp template
compared to old mm
just to check some of the subdoctrines are locked to a specific grand doctrine right
aw
heard that some on rb were doing 22/0 mountaineers (or 39.6 width) for whatever reason
I don’t think so no
pdx making stuff less fun
oh
no
is there a guide for each of the doctrines i can post
don’t think so
Right ok, i was under the assumption that its worth exceeding the width as the extra division makes up for the penalty. Doing the math now at my desk i can see this is only true if total divisions in combat is <4
havent played around in the new patch to be experienced enough
ig some of the doctrine stats are clear enough
think either Casey or foxsy, cant remember, made one for Operations Subdoctrines a while back
also if u post certain templates u can make the doctrines in the background
like this
Yeah that's a good idea
is there anything bad about the guides/templates in pins rn
like to teach a beginner
that i should fix rn
Well doctrines are more important and more varied these days, so I did agree with clown's advice that it is useful posting doctrines as well
i dont really have the time or familiarity of the new doctrines to do so rn tho
Wait actually
hoi4 has a playerbase in there too btw
Yea ik but like idk any
anyways isnt it like sch time rn
No no I just got out
wow thats early
which sch
AHS
oh that one
Huh
Sch look quite nice I have no comment on the students tho
Behaviour kinda questionable at times
How to fix the bug where it only says states numbers like state 617 and not its actually name?
is this good? it got 36w
What mod are u using
Its not a mod thing it doesnt even when i turn off all my mods
Plus why a horse div
playing poland
What language is ur system/steam
English
Verify file integrity
Then if it still doesnt work manually clear cache
Check pins in #tech-support for how
Okey doey thnks
yo can i integrate occupied territories
Only throughspecific focuses and decisions
build compliance
idk any units i use only infantry
@robust hemlockNo uncensored nazi symbols please
at least get support artillery and support Anti Air in
In the Pins you can find all the templates you'll ever need
Why did trotsky chose Leningrad as new capital?
Okay so i may be stupid but for naval stuff would it be best to just take other countries navy or build up a death stack, kill the opponent navy then do an easy naval invade?
Add some arty or anti-air in
You would want some support companies too
That aside build trains and trucks
Deathstack is always the answer and if you can take a navy in a peace deal do so, but don't like spare it and prolong the war for it
What are the best DLCS from top to bottom?
Right now I got AAT and NSB
If you like spy stuff grab La Resistance and if you like Wunderwaffen grab Götterdämmerung, most other DLCs are country flavour for the nations you like to play.
Try to search up dlcs with new mechanics that you want i think
Or country flavors
Depends on what you like
Gotcha
Also what's a death stack for the navy? Never heard of that before
Light cruisers spam with light attack focus
Ahhh
That was the death stack last i played
All ships except subs as one Fleet. The AI splits their ships hard, so you win every battle.
Havent really done navy stuff much
Also the game Navy Mechanics are made in a way that the biggest fleet always wins
So as long as yours is the biggest you will win every time
Though one thing is that building navy kinda hinges on you already have things to spare for it
I mainly prioritize convoy for trade when i play small nations
But if you have huge indstry an investment in naval isnt a bad idea
how do i actually beat the germans
i have 250 hours
and ive realised
ive never beaten the germans by myself
i always do it with 5+ allies
and end up getting like 5% warscore
so i wanna change that and actually win by myself for once
where do i even start
Im not a veteran but is your templates good?
i mean thats probably 1 of the problems
Do you have like supply to make sure your division keep fighting?
only if its got a green tick
Do you have like an industry that can help you fight with the germans?
And the rest of the axis?
industry can be difficult
wait let me choose a nation to play
who should i pick to fight the germans
France is also fine, but they kinda do turtle play and let allied mob ger up
but i just hate the start for the soviets because its so boring
I see people play hungary or austria to form au-hun empire
Though its probably take more skills
They could be a contender for beating up germany
Romania is also an option
They have a river line that can grind germany down
romania could be fun but there isnt a direct frontline
so wont i just get no warscore from capturing
actually poland has a frontline with romania
okay ill do romania
You just have to sacrifice the navy twice or forge reports while doing the purges on time to avoid that
i try to rush it but i still seem to lose SO much
what do i need to beat the germans then
as romania
Its actually one of the simpler trees i feel without being bogged down
should i try space marines
Sure space marine is good
Though you have to rush quite a bit
As you might be in a pickle with both soviet and germany
i mean i like to know what tech i want so i can focus on it
should i use medium and light spaa?
idk whats better really
i actually start with decent tank tech as romania
light and medium basics reseached
You mean interwar
yeah those ones
You should probably like deal with the ussr first
how do i do that
After the threat done you can turn to the axis
Dont worry they will invade you
okay, im doing balkans dominance focus cause i feel that will give me more industry
So you have to deal with then
You are not strong enough for a three front wars agaisnt soviet and axis
So best to just deal with them piecewise
okay ill deal with soviets first
what space marines template should i use
oh yeah and what do i do about these events cause they suck
alright ill do that soon
i just dont want the allies getting like 90% warscore
cause its just so boring
If you do well agaisnt the ussr you might have an exremely strong germany
So you probably gonna have a good chunk of wsc after the war
9inf
1 tank
Support arty, superheavy howitzer (replaces sup logi/engineers), hospital, aa (light tank recon if you use spaa) and medium flame tank
Stack breakthrough on light tank recon and medium ft, stack armor on front tank then either breakthrough (medium tank/spaa) or soft attack (spg)
alright
light spaa or medium spaa?
Doctrines are GBP, assault inf, siege arty, depends on the tank used, grand assault
Medium for space marines
okay ill do that
Don't produce interwar chassis and rush gun techs (1940 gun should be unlocked in mid 1938)
yeah im not doing interwar
Also be careful since the region its very mountainous
i wanna fix my guns deficit
You might get stuck a bit
The only issue with that would be attrtion with SpM
Yeah i mean the first war
Your frontline tank must have at bare minimum 60 armor btw
Since they probably dont have enough to build spmr yet
should i join anticomintern
Yeah
yes i remember this from yesterday
Since well the soviet will come and beat you up anyway
Are amtracs any good?
Very good but quite expensive
Does vanilla mod AI make navry work better or more competitive ?
Also was told to use 1-2 cruisers for baiting their strike fleet out but I cant disengage after I start battle and on not engage their navry doesn’t come out
mod link?
Just patrol with the full stack. If the enemy ignores just Naval Invade him and Cap him
which doctrine for armour if im using med spaa
steamlined i think, the one that gives 20% brk to armor variants
armoured spearhead?
might be
yup, that's the one
don't forget 1 mil on trains
bro the ussr have caught me off guard in greece
do i just give up bessarabia
its so expensive..
depends on how well youre trading manpower wise
ive lost 85k
okay so
its about like the k/d
and equipment losses
if you kept it up, would you live longer than them?
also are there opportunities to attack weak tiles?
well theyre pretty heavily concentrated across the entire frontline
theyve hit 1.3m losses and ive hit 95k
if we exclude finland ive killed 989k
not really
a lot of them are half strenght
im at about 10kd
theres so much weakness in their front
i could try push with my space marines??
maybe i can encircle some things
balta, down south, pin down like 30 guys and try to encircle
i cant read how much they have
but it looks weak
what space marines are you making
are they good or garbage
theyre okay i think
show
theyre really low hp and wont crit
im not ever going to make a good unit 
well yeah its a common unit to make because you "add armor to infantry"
which is not the only stat that matters
i cant make spg its too expensive
i like these for space marines
okay but you dont have to
bro its special forces
yes
you have mountaineer
they just deal more attack
especially with special forces docyrine
mountaineer should be easy to get
Try them out and find out that most likely both are good enough to beat the AI
TD
I want to destroy the navry for fun 😅 but shoudl strike force come out even if I set my patrol on not engage ?
are 9/1s worth it for czechoslovakia
Do you have to use tds
Or can I use spgs
its so you have piercing, but you can use spgs if you want
especially for the chinese one
Ah
Ty
In my Czech facist run I used 18 width with 1 spg and those crushed everything
Unrelated question: Does it make sense to bleed a country out if your casualty rate is like 20 times lower or even lower?
How to stop low supply for tank my tanker alway supply in 32% and they even cant beat infantry
you can just retreat most of your troups and have the rest hold the line I think
worked for me in Ethiopia before 🤷
dont use them in bad supply lol
also get better generals
planning bonus
a lot of stuff
tanks without battle modifiers are mid at best
horse icon :3
to add to this:
in the case of big countries, no
bleeding nations of manpower only works on ones with small overall pools
germany can sustain over 20m
poland can take a lot less
maybe 5-10
just wondering because I'm slaughtering the Poles, but not making gains, and I don't know if I should make my move since our forces are about equal
I do have near complete air superiority and strategic bombing efficiency
then you don't have equal forces and can melt them
air power is all you need
just pinch off their front between torun and lodz then mop up
should i invade austria as czechoslovakia before germany anschlusses?
What does 9/0 mean
thanks
You will get some factories sooner if you invade
Plus reduce your economy of conquest
If you did that over peg
Also very late but these templates are not like army wide
You shouldnt try to make like 24 divs of these templates
Try having like 10
does the befriend turkey focus as italy allow you to puppet turkey or just add them to an alliance?
You mean like 32% fuel or like supply? If its the former you just have to save up or capture regions with oil. If its later build supply hubs, make sure the army is probably motorized supply and make sure theres enough trains/trucks/convoys/airplanes to supply.
Aim to capture the enemy supply hubs and hold it down before connecting it to your other supply hubs
It could greatly boost your troops while hampers your enemies
In regions where supply hubs are rare youre just kinda screwed and have to make do
well, I did conquer poland now
and it was too easy xD
you added the mod into a new playset and then selected it?
yea
TNO seems fire
kinda but they are alt historical
for example the original photo of this was german command not allied one
any tip to invade ussr as germany starting on 1939?
If I want to destroy the navry best with my land bombers I should sacrifice my destroyers on patrol to hit their big fleets that come out v
They gave someone a Time Machine
And a camera
i wanna play endsieg but i dont see a 1.12.2 beta version, any fix?
How do I take over britain as italy?
Do I naval invade or paratroop?
And should I make tanks as italy?
no
just use spotting cruisers
when im playing iraq can I strengthen the golden square and still get down to al andalus?
But should they be set on engage or not engage ?
If I set on not engage their strike fleet don’t come out
Why the hell is italy's industry so bad? Should I start with building civs or infrastructure?
No engage
Just spot them so your navs attack
Civs
Thanks
Also, do I focus on tanks as italy or nah?
But Italy was under developed compared to the other majors
If you wanna do space marines you can
Yeah, but I just wanna take over britian, but idk how, I suck as italy
But you are gonna need medium for flame tank
They were 75 years old by 1936
Bad natural resources
I have small navry so I need to find their strike fleet and bomb them portstrike don’t do much
Just kill it with your destroyers
Is it going to be hard for me to take over britian as italy?
And whats the best way to do it?
Naval invasion?
And how do I build up the industry fast?
but yeah, your Navs will kill any Fleet
That’s what the spotting cruisers are for
Also if it's UK convoy raid to death
is this bugged
You need to be in a faction
oh yea true
The saadabad pact is kinda weird
saadabad pact is not a faction huh
It’s not like the shared Nordic tree
its pretty good tho ngl
when do I get the event for abd al ilah to take over?
Yeah but they only spot and if I don’t set then to enhance the enemy strike fleet doesn’t come out to fight
its pretty good until you realize that as as any member of the pact your expansion routes include attacking other members and losing all of the buffs

Then you gotta port strike ig
well al andalus iraq doesnt
Bro now you me confused me 😂
if their fleet isnt out
you can port strike
if it is out
use naval strike
Can puppets take decisions for formable nations?
interesting question
no
Damn, thought I was being smart by feeding my Luxembourg Collaboration Government the rest of the Benelux.
Hi guys
Need help with navy
Currently trying to invade America
So what’s the issue
Why’s my strike force not active
Nevermind
Lowkey needed to move my navy D
XD
WAIT YA
IVE MOVED MY ENTIRE NAVY THERE
So I was solaying as italy, I unlocked infantry equipments 2 (ma -38’s) and with the dlc arms against tyranny, I think they duplicated weapons into series, and now I’m locked with an infinite void on my weapons storage, like genuinely I produce mab-38 serie 3 and they just KEEP converting to series 2’s, even after 1,5 years while I keep reducing my army in hopes to deal with this issue
what do I do in general ?
How do you get Hitler to become the president of the usa
?
Adam hilt
The wiki prolly knows
in this state/situation am i cooked (im BYZ)
how the hell do you win civil war in the US? The enemy just spawns randomly and captures stuff without being present
also i do have suff strenght to take the USSR if germany fills infantries
Hey guys I used a medium air frame to build naval bombers with a gun so it was classified as heavry figther. I now made a new version that’s called tactical bombing , but I can’t refit my medium frame modeles that are called heavey fighter any idea why ? Thought you were supposed to be able to refit same frame
you want it to be 36w
so add 3 more tank battalions
and get flame tanks
and light tank recon
and armored engineers
i dont have land warfare faciltiies
then build one
yea you usually want tthem early
if i have spared CIVs
but i started as greece so i had basically nothing
If ur playing hist id prolly build it the first thing i can do i can get stronghold network
eh id rather invest in infrastructure first with some nations bc greece has 3 CIVs at the beginning
why infra
getting a facility early
really helps out
big time
later on
You need 2 breakthrus for stronghold network
It’s not 1
And it really does buff your defense
do you use logistic companies
i personally dont
its good if you pair it
with individual excellence tho
its always good
ur gonna struggle with supply on 90% of fronts no matter what
even with building up supply
which 99% of players don’t do or can’t do
Is the fighter outdated and do you have some in stockpile?
guys is the meta mountaineers and med flames for inf temps?
special forces with flame tanks are good
yes
alr so i wanna make a good inf temp is 36w with inf and mount good?
ok for tanks is it skoda works prague of daimler benz better medium tank
the refurbishment is better
Czechs get Daimler Benz?
and yeah line art is shit id rather js stick to support aa and support art
art is soft attack but it doesnt rlly make a diff?
Oh so the Germans get skoda?
has a different name i think but skoda too
oh yeea
always take support arty
yh
36w is the best for inf divs right?
if you want to attack with the units
then yes
for holding
16-18w
but icl imma start leaning more to tanks since inf is mostly for holding not attacking now that i understand stuff
ok so what for production what for design
henschel design
refurbishment for production
okay so how do i organize my army, do i make all the divs into holding first then i recruit attacking divs?
not really
inf bricks work well
by bricks you mean the whole template is inf?
36w full inf
alr
and the support companies is support aa support arty engineers flame tanks and signal?
or am i missing smth
smth like this
signals arent like needed
but if you can
ig get them
is that heavy support arty?
also some people make like mechanized arty and aa how do you do that?
super heavy howitzer
special project?
yes
also why does this keep happening
it randomly started a week ago
g why the reaction
never seen that before
also is it better to have low graphics?
if your pc cant handle the game
it can but a day takes like 4 seconds to pass
and its a cpu based game
and i want the game to be faster early on
what the hell 😭
Mod issue
im being pushed everywhere i restarted like 30 times
i have 1k hours this is embarrassing
the puppets give me like no fkn industry
i cant do anything
i jsut want the stupid achievement
You really should try to hold the passage south of Innsbruck to free up some units
Must you do it in historical?
no its over i uninstalled
Hahah
fVck you
Looks painful
I don't know what you really have to do there, but if you show your production line and unit template I might be able to help your next run
i was making everything
i hate myself
the worst part is i only had one mil on guns because OH WOW NON ALIGNED HAS THE WORST PUPPETS IN THE GAME
you get:
troops (useless crappy 12 widths)
thats it
this is so awful
and they declare on all my puppets and they have the worst troops known to man
i might as well just jump off a bridge irl for playing like this
what happened with spanish civil war guys? i only play with no step back dlc
What do you mean
