thy word is my command.
never use anything other than inf
i have a funny answer for this but i ll get timeout
pretty bad idea if you are a major
what should i do then
you see the
they are so OP
giant metal hunk
i only just got it lol
tanks destroy other infantry
like a fish tank?
WELL HOLY DOGSH*T, PRIVATE, DID YOUR MOMMY TELL YOU THAT OR DID YOU JUST FIGURE IT OUT ALL BY YOURSELF? CONGRATULATIONS, YOU’VE MASTERED THE ART OF READING STRIPES ON A SLEEVE! WHAT’S NEXT, ARE YOU GONNA REMIND ME THAT WATER IS WET AND GRAVITY PULLS DOWN?
LISTEN HERE, YOU MAGGOT: YOU DON’T NEED TO TELL ME YOU OUTRANK ME. YOUR ABILITY TO STATE THE OBVIOUS ALREADY PROVES YOU’RE OPERATING AT THE PEAK OF HUMAN GENIUS. NOW WHY DON’T YOU TAKE YOUR SHINY RANK, FRAME IT, AND HANG IT ON THE WALL SO YOU CAN STARE AT IT ALL DAY WHILE THE REST OF US ACTUALLY DO THE DAMN JOB.
dont take it personally though
if an AI has a bad tank they will most likely still win a fight against your infantry
this is what english class was for
Shit isnt censored btw
True
oh ok
i was researching armored cars and i had to do a double take
fr fr
u can do with it
better tanks than the AI
the good thing is tanks are like low priority
on the to do list
they are good, dont get me wrong, they re very good for offensives
it really sucks to try to explain everything through messages
but u can just use infantry or special forces in sp
if u manage to get green air
and cas
ai has bad divisions so tanks arent really a must
if you have 4 good tank divs you'll winn most wars aslong as you have equipment and you dont attack with infantry
and if u have air supremacy and cas
u can push with any division
as long as it has enough org to be in battle
which is why i d recommend skipping tanks for now and focusing on doing good air
poland is my favorite nation
oh ok
imo if you cant be bothered making air just spam tanks
too bad i havent touched it in like
2 years
true
dude when i try to send a screenshot it tabs out of hoi4
im trying to send something
poland can core romania
have hungary as p.u
u basically have everything except rubber
aren't there focuses for miedzymorze
how can u have good air i thought all planes are the same
poland - romania path
actually no
with by blood alone dlc
u can customize plane modules
oh i think i have that
a tac bomber and a CAS plane have very different ways to do ground attack
but the designs are different
tue
yes but u shouldnt use it in sp
i don't think you need interception if you have superiority
cant say its bad
interception is good for shooting down strategic bombers or cas
just use that over your home territory
but air superiority is generally better
No actually
It only engages already detected planes
oh i only every do it over tje other country
u dont have crimea
ever
yea
kid named radar
It sucks its better to just superiority
what does putting it over ur own territory do if they dont occupy any of ur mainland
they can put air over ur land
i put my divisions to capture baku oilfields put they went to late and well i dont anything from there
stops them strat bombing your factories to hell
if they have enough range
oh right
what abt construction i never know where to construct
if im playing poland i
if ur planes are in an airzone and they have missions in a different airzones
should probably set things up in my favor a bit
you can build anywhere realistically
they do but they re less efficient
ok
but try to build away from borders of the nations you're going to war with
and it prevents them from reaching the proper airzone
that s different for every country
oh so like in the center
generally u want to have at least 60% infrastructure
u prioritize highest infrastructure states
or states that have DAMS
or other local modifiers for construction speed
i once built a bunch of mils on silesia before russia declared war on me
ex: kemalist state for turkey
and then silesia got stolen
actually
i can do another A-H run
or do poland
ill do poalnd
ok
i tried ah before as hungary and formed but i cant remember what but one of the countries werent joining
and i was softlocked
i thought they were forced to lól
Fair enough
how does it let u send screenshots btw
i keep trying and it tabs out
instead
11 factories but 53 divs
how are they getting enough guns to supply the like 3rd largest army in europe
with 11 mils
ühhhöhöhääaee i forgor
spam destroyers with a comedic amount of torpedoes
thats all you need to know
what
throw in a battleship because its funny
how do u spam destroyers when i said i know nothing i literally know nothing
Big issue with hoi4 is that noob lobbies/spaces are typically a lot more toxic than like competative since competative has a set playerbase + decent moderation typically
absolutely nothing
think ill go
sanation left
because why not
so i just looked over to the monarchist tree
can't help but notice the artillery div
that s not a good thing
the best outcome u can get is if hungary goes austria hungary
and annexes poland and austria
cause then they refuse, u get wargoal, and can integrated puppet them
Just kinda sad… seems like my son learns a lot playing
clearly pilsudski needed to lock in harder
go sanation right
what would i need rydz-smigly for
also the equipment deficit just kicked in
sorry folks we're not getting tanks today because we're out of guns to put on the tanks
When MIO
-10% doctrine cost
literally the better sanation path for after u get him in power
can i just keep him as an advisor
basically they just banned your party
Do the one that doesn’t give u -50 pp
assuming you're playing germany
so what do u think i should do
people of poland
YOUR PARTY...
i need more guns get to work
should i do how rude or they wont lose us that easily
its probably easier to do anschluss than declare war on them early
so what do i click
just eeny meeny minie moe and then press that one
thats all i have
bruh
how do i get an army 24x austrias
what
couldnt i just justify against austria
if u think abt it
Or u can be peaceful and get more stuff
true but how do u get an army 24x austrias
wait i clicked a button
so now it lowers
wow
its 23x
wonderful
If my eyes turn run, RED
if his pants turn run, brown
it only counts batallions
not divisions
by mid 1938 it becomes 0.25x
oh ok
what do the spies even do
and where should i put it
i put it in france to build intel
but idk what the point is
soviet civil war just happened and my game lagged
Thats normal
don't build the interwar fighters
they're worse than nothing
also, assign MIOs
best baltic nation for democratic baltic federation?
What if Hitler was forced to play Germany’s communist path
probably lithuania because you can get poland
even with democratic?
not sure
Hello
let me cook...
hi
Sorry Bud. I gotta
Bad hygiene will go global...
Welp
Indian hitler : we shall destroy soap
probably the best spawn i got
with manpower and factories and location
but i spawned as a democracy T_T
What mod i might try a run
Dont want a good start though
random country placement
What in the world are those borders
Why pdx? Why only advisor
Is that like a mod
Sounds silly
Or from a peace deal
I keep forgetting the kingdom of hungary never actually had a king lol
mod
Its very silly and pretty fun tbh
The czech-mongol empire looks based
oh wait you were talking about the event ?
How can i have a bad enough starting position then tho
For it to be fair to ai
Hmm
Get lucky?
The mod does also randomize factories and resources
Im gonna spawn as like half of australia and thatd be about fair
Cringe
I dont want an equal start
bro wtf
i got spawn in INDIA
WORST PLACE BRO
and why is turkey called "SOCIALISM"
Its typically like 20 factories lol
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Theyre socialist
u can start with 50 factories
Oh cool then
Ofc
if u re too op switch tag to the weakest shit u can find
Ironman mode is for people who larp in singleplayer
hey
Worst thing ever 💔 being stuck in kazakh and caucasia for no supplies 💔
@heavy vigil
worst spawn i could find so far
comoro islands, cyprus and the other 2 regions
Thats pretty awesome
At least comoros has people
2m
i think the populations for most provinces is heavily inflated
maybe to ensure balance
yea
Insane
If Japan conquered south east asia with this you can too 🔥
so now im basically romanian kondom @heavy vigil
I don’t need to look, but my guess is 8 divs per tile
ah
forgot the poles "have" a "navy"
And why is there a red bubble already
Ok why tf does the AI have 48 divs attacking 😭
idk i just moved the army on the fallback line back to front line to help my guys
what do i click
i think u downloaded the wrong mod
hi
hello
mfing Chile dragged the Allies into my Japan-USA solo war
If I ever make a nuke, im dropping it on Santiago first
one should be for random technology - u get between 0 and 7 random techs . u start with 1918 gun and support equipment. u can choose that everybody does the same or everybody gets between 0 and 7 random techs
yea i hate chile in the game
the chilean invasion of wilhelmshaven
no
its random map 1.16
just doesnt have localization
thats like normal
should i go ma for freegypt?
Get used to this notification , you will see it a lot
they core everything they start with
and u can do any formable
as long as u control the lands
anyone know of a mod that makes japan more fun
the world
overstacking divisions
or you're getting convoy raided
im letting them waste resources by attacking me rn but how do i know when its time for me to attack them properly
well i donth think you should be getting pushed by the chinese
im not
better to start encircling them as soon as possible
oh dear
ah aight
treat the war like a blitzkrieg
how often can i press it ?
how the hell don't you have air support
i did it once but i dont see the button anymore
use your planes
wdym? pretty sure i do
ah its just thee
I can see the air supremacy alert on the right
wait, how does china have range in home islands
they probably have 17 lend lease or market bombers
should i move planes to home islands and yellow sea?
no
ok
its scary seeing red but it doesnt matter at all
nah, shouldn't need it
im gonna save the game
and see what happens
they declared war on me
wasn't expecting anythingh else
didn't go well
what if we did max forts
if i invade with this much debuff will it harm me too much? or can i invade with it and finish war sooner?
anyone know why i cant trade? it says i can trade up to 0 units of rubber
Do you have rubber being produced?
Do you have no convoys and the rubber is over a sea route?
shut up capitalist bot
ANGETRETEN!
out of all places
<@&846894118219022336>
what the hail mods remove that W-word out of here
I think its a clanker.
Sweet
Kahaaa
Go invade her.
TGWR update 
how do i get my divs to prepare?
She blocked me, lol.
“And that’s how I met your mother”
me too
Nah
"How I met the women who would stop me from playing Paradox games."
And her deal
"I'm looking for friends with benefits"
Just nasty.
Sounds like trauma dawg
No, I also don't like Only fans.
Same that website is garbage
🤓☝️
im gonna get capitulated if i have this as my infantry
2/0’s
portugal starts with those too but on elite priority
Noone asked😘

When is the chinese dlc gamers
Truth
Do it
Fascist Tuva before GTA 6
you'd waste your industry
There should be a Tuvan flag emoji

What is this screen
Next time a girls ask for friend with benefits just share my number
I need someone to take care of my garden while I am out
I'ma give them Diddy's number.
Wait, am I allowed to say that on here?
🐮
ayoo
😭
puppets can have puppets?
like a subject country can have another country as their subject?
Yes
oh
but
why the puppet
of my puppet
is like a neutral nation to me
damn you are very evil like chak
usually others puppets try to stay away from you if you do not have a shower for more than one week
It says is yours puppet
i mean regno del sud is the pupet of france
and france is my puppet
Regno del sud is a different type of puppet
in what sense
It triggers with taking 70% of italian victory points
yea
lovely AI moment
Pretty sure if uou declare on them france join you
so
if i attack them
france stays on my side?
and if i do
what happens with regno of sud
They Just keep coming lol
like im so confused rn
So declare war on italy
i didnt know puppets could have puppets
And sacrifice yourself for science
have you encounter a situation like mine ?
Yo
i have 147 convoys
ANYONE KNOW WHY IT SAYS I CAN TRADE UP TO 0 UNITS OF RUBBER
yea
i mean
im axis away to win
but must admit been triying for a while
Because the country you are trying to import don't like you anymore
oh
italy doesnt want to either
warno reference in the fulda gap
Who are you?
pls
Dr Stone mentioned
no cuz italy wont either
Who are you?
Chevk the yrade influence with those nations
a person
Listen
dude not a single one of them will
germany
that was very vague
you couldve said what are you playing as
i thought u meant real life
Check the trade influence you have with italy
Or maybe you just went with autarky
its not just italy its everyone
wait what
i thought autarky was a good thing
Check your trade law
You have to build syntetic rafinery
cant i just change it
Guys, even though I'm a beginner, do you think I'm good? (easymode)
yes
but how did u go through the maginot
youre fast
what is maginot?
Are you plaing single player?
yeah
idk
bro ur meant to invade benelux
little hack
did u paradrop
Prolly
Also is that competente italy that I see?
i dont know
Yeah 😭
how to paradrop
Italy for the uk
How
italy invaded british raj and uk
really
What difficulty are you playing ?
Comprtent and Italy are not cohesistent words
play normal difficulty
easier difficulties dont help you
Agreed
Learn the hard way
Playing regular
That’s how’d I learn
My first run was as the USA 😭
I'm only learning about the sea and the air here.
My navy got decimated
Usa is pretty good to learn both
my first run was as canada and i was like this is really boring im playing germany
I have a question. I saw on YouTube that someone invaded France in 3 seconds. How is this possible?
idk probably paradropping
how paradropping
You need a dlc I think
really?
How do I get the sunrise invasion achievement I can't really wrap my head around how I'm supposed to conquer all of Europe by 1945 when I'm so far Away
thats easy wdym
Bro search a tutorial
wait even the soviets?
Im doing Soviet onion
i just beat china and then invaded usa in 1939
How is that easy
then i could just do whatever the hell i wanted
Do the Soviets never surrender?
For tryhards everthing is easy
They are very hard to capitulate
Trust
hi hoi4 slop eaters
I took out China by 1938
But I'm like forever away idk how I'm supposed to take all of Europe
I almost came to Afghanistan and they still haven't surrendered. It's frustrating.
max colab gov is required for invading soviets if you dont want to suffer
then get moving
It is
Bro that isn't advice at all
well you could either go east or go west
crazy
Like puppet a country with a puppet
i went east and attacked mexico and usa in 1939 after china
american subs will cause you problems
Yea
So how do I organize my armies to occupy an entire country? Is there an option? i use spearhead
So how do I get a beachhead if they have a far superior navy
are you actually scared of the ai
No
stack ur fleet up and build light cruisers the whole time
Ai so dumb man
It's just common math
people under 1000 hours generally are
just use it for supremacy
If my navy can't get supremacy then how do I land 🤦🏻♂️
well considering that ive done it myself you will have supremacy
your entire fleet vs some 50 ship ai task force
I'm not scared of the AI I've kinda already gotten to that point where I prefer sheep's mod over core gameplay
i like puppeting
well ig ur auto better than me for taking sheeps ai on
i dont want to fight sheeps ai personally
see most are puppets
I just look at it like don't go to war until your ready for it to literally be a world conquest on your first war
puppeting is so goated
its fine to be fighting everybody
Hello, my friend and I are working on a mod for the game that adds content for North African countries, so we need programmers, artists and writers to work on the mod. Anyone with experience, please feel free to message us directly.
you prepare during the war
i want soviet onioNNNN
idk how to mod in hoi4 so
😭
usa shouldnt join allies that quickly i dont think
u have infinite manpower and enough factories
how come when im fighting under yellow air the enemy has cas support but i don't get any
The Great Trial is approaching
what
when theres yellow air over a region the enemy gets cas damage in battles and i dont
does it have to do with number of fighters in the air?
i know
why would you play fascist usa
i have 600 cas over the region they dont do anything
using cas in contested airzone isnt a good idea
then how come the ai can???
how much stat reduction are they doing to your units
how many of their cas are you shooting down
because is hell of good
democracy is ass
they shoot 6 of my cas down and i shoot 9 of theirs
not for usa
yea
fascist uk I can get behind
with that industrial power
well dont waste ur planes in a contested airzone
just use ur fighters for now
you are unstopable
probably has to do with the fact that they have 2k cas in the region and i have 600 idk
uhh
yea
2 more months and the soviets end operation uranus and i can go back on the offensive
I will launch the Great Trial When i reach 4M men in the militiary
What do you think is the most important thing in the game?
what other submods are you using
I am just using tno requiem mod
how is your post reunification tree looking like
i did this before
and it was so damn easy
like
i was dissapointed
germany only had like
40 divisions
so weird
If you included all of the einheitspakt
i still had more divs
just dont even make the reichskomisriaritais
their own territory isnt even cored by them
german official or local collaborator
oka
i just annex everything lol
but eyah reickhsomksirartis are stupid
local collab better
Invasion of central Asia was a success
Which country better for navy, austria, hungary or switzerland?
probably commie china
GBP or MA for whats good for freegypt?
umm
for freegypt
like you dont even have to fight at all
i am gonna use only infantry and support arty
why is 1 civil factory 100 aluminium?
puppet
realy?
i dont think i had any puppets. i had just a faction
"** **"
Is union of Soviet republics goated
Is lev Trotsky goated
Is Soviet civil war goated ?
yea its pretty easy
Is so funny you can capitulate Russia using cheap cav
😭
Ai so sum
Dumb
(During the civil war )
When yall think hoi5 come out
I honestly hope it never does because it will cost a liver and a half
Tomorrow
Yeah
And with 20+ DLCs
And plus there is to many mods here that people enjoy playing
😭 😭
hoi4 will probably become unreplaceable like gmod
And don’t forget a bunch of key features missing and game breaking bugs at the start
Yeah
Some DLCs are vital
yeah like hl2
the story is soo good
rip the allies
Ah
i dont have the skill yet
Preperations for the Great Trial are almost finished.
commie britain just gave me south georgia and falkland islands for free so i got the achievement
Bro you defeated Soviet
Ofc you have
Is not that hard
Just attack Belgium in 36
Cap France in 36
Paratroop uk
Capitulate uk
Then attack USA from Canada
In 37 USA will have little army
Then you go for sure
HELP
With
france is cooking
and they still did it
You only need like 24 infantry to cover the Maginot
anyone can someone help
yeah well they still did it with 48
i almost had capped canada
Your supposed to push thrihht Belgium
2% capitulation left
Through
they capped
And Luxembourg
It's called around the Maginot for a reason
but while i was doing it
IK
im not stupid
i am doing that
XDDDDDDDD
but they randomly made a breakthrough
How
I didn't even know that was possible
You start the war by declarimg on Netherlands, cap them , then luxbourg cap them and at the same time declare on Belgium pin there armies and flood in through the adreen
Arden*
Don't declare on all of them at once
That always France to flood troops in
i always just do that after
Bro
Dude that's a lot for eqypt
btw howcome with a paratroop order they cant go from anyowhere
no highlighted provinces
at all
niceee, my japan run is really looking up.
HELP THERES NOWHERE TO CLICK
argentina op
It allows you to easily go around the entire front capping Luxembourg
after doing all the chilean achievements argentina op
yall what is organisation for in hoi
💀
look at the battle and see why ur not winning
click the bubble
u can see all the stats of why its happening
if he's losing there i dont think he'll understand what the battle's information is telling him
so theyre in super defensible terrain
and they probably have a numbers advantage
they probably have air superiority and cas on you
dude
not enough divs and you are so late to overrun them
french just came for help
overstack
dont crop screenshots if u want help
see ths guys name
was that a dumbass disrespectful question to come ask a grown ass superhero
Dude...equip...their armies...probsbly air superiority too
