no.

[bronze mango]

Meanwhile Georgian and Russian couldn't be more different

[lone sail]

Literally yes

[sudden grotto]

Then England Is Just Saxon

[meager valley]

And Native Americans on reservations are British because they speak English

[silk furnace]

but what i do know is that im hungarian

[lone sail]

Austria speaks German and is culturally German

[meager valley]

It is not culturally German

[lone sail]

It is

[meager valley]

💀💀💀

[bronze mango]

Austria and Germany are similar, not the same

[proud tapir]

"Dont worry! The kakapoopowagenkampfraketen ausf j will win the war and NOT kill our own scientists in testing stages, again!"

[silk furnace]

then Hungary is gipsy 😭

and romanian

[bronze mango]

Georgia and Russia are not similar at all

[lone sail]

Austria is German

[sudden grotto]

Imma ping someone named austrian and ask if they germnas fr fr

[silk furnace]

german is autrian frfr

[lone sail]

Obviously he will say no

[sudden grotto]

DUHHH

[proud tapir]

dont go to art school ever vro

[lone sail]

Austria has vowed to never unite with Germany

[sudden grotto]

You told It and Stil leont accept it

[silk furnace]

so what if germans are french?

[meager valley]

Guy is actually brainwashed, it’s sad

[sudden grotto]

( matter of time )

[bronze mango]

French are german, it's different

[silk furnace]

true

[lone sail]

How am I brainwashed

Im not even far right

[meager valley]

Actually Germany is French bc Carolingian puppet. Erm actually it’s British bc British ties. Erm actually it’s Roman bc Latin font

[lone sail]

Or any right for that matter

[modern bison]

does anyone have a good light tank division template for germany with all dlc

[lone sail]

I’m not even German

[proud tapir]

Thats like saying Croats and Serbs are the same.
We are similar in many ways, not the same

[silk furnace]

so then Hungary is finnish no?

[bronze mango]

They are

[lone sail]

Both are Balkan

[meager valley]

Love for land mines lowkey the same

[lone sail]

Both are Slavic

[proud tapir]

yes, but not the same

[bronze mango]

You could've said south slavic

[lone sail]

Just like how Germany and Austria are both German

[proud tapir]

true, balkan is too broad

[proud tapir]

Germanic maybe, but not german

[lone sail]

Ok south Slavic

[meager valley]

It’s actually very offensive to many to say such people are the same.

[lone sail]

Fine

[proud tapir]

So they are not the same then. See?

[bronze mango]

Germany is german Austria is austrian however the two are very similar

[lone sail]

They are

Both are Germanic

[meager valley]

Watch him backpedal

Yup

[bronze mango]

Georgian and Russian are not related however

[meager valley]

https://tenor.com/view/smooth-brain-gif-13983164398694002589

[proud tapir]

Well yeah, but Germanic isnt one group of people

[lone sail]

Fair

[proud tapir]

Just like slavs are not all the same

[bronze mango]

Everyone here is dumb as shit

[meager valley]

Wait till you learn Germany has many different cultures in it too 💀

And classifying all Germanic people the same is as brain dead as saying all Homo sapiens the same

[lone sail]

However the majority of Austria wanted the Anschluss and considered themselves German

[proud tapir]

The more south you go, the less comprehensive the language gets

[lone sail]

I mean they are the same

Don’t you think all humans are equal?

That is the reason they are divided into south, west and east

[meager valley]

Dude is just a rage baiter fr

[proud tapir]

Yup, same way we have Austrians and Germans

two distinct germanic groups

With their own history

and culture

[lone sail]

You can’t spell Germanic without German

[bronze mango]

Although more similar than others such as Sweden or Britain

[meager valley]

America is within the name for the region South America. Therefore they’re identical to the USA

[marsh ravine]

100 years ago

Things change

[proud tapir]

i mean yeah, but you dont see any nations in the Balkans or eastern europe call themselves straight up slavic. Its just a name

What if Franco, Hirohito, Mussolini, and Hitler fought each other in a boxing ring

[bronze mango]

This is how wars should be fought

[lone sail]

caudillo vs emperor Showa vs Il Duce vs der fuhrer

[proud tapir]

Mussolini and Franco left standing in a 1v1

[meager valley]

I read that as France and was like dang, they have a slight advantage

[proud tapir]

Hirohito would get bodied

And so would Hitler

[meager valley]

Hirohito dies first

Like they legit snap him like a slim jim

[bronze mango]

The country of france vs 3 men

[proud tapir]

he had a worse diet

[meager valley]

Exactly 😭 Instant white flag by France

[proud tapir]

The other two actualy had meat in their diets

[lone sail]

Hirohito was a vegan!?

[meager valley]

And it shows

[proud tapir]

Not really but

[lone sail]

Caudillo beats Il duces ass

[proud tapir]

in Asia people at that time were significantly shorter due to diet

[lone sail]

Mussolini was pathetic

Franco was in the military

Mussolini was europes soft underbelly

[meager valley]

For the sake of this argument, would they all be the same age

[lone sail]

Sure

[meager valley]

Like 30, or their respective ages

[proud tapir]

He ate lots of garlic
He would just go "phhhuuuuuu" all over their face and kill them

[meager valley]

Bc if it was their age at the time, lowkey Mussolini

If all the same age, Franco

[lone sail]

Downfall Hitler vs Mussolini after being strung up

[proud tapir]

Hitler during his time in the army tho

[meager valley]

Jk actually

[proud tapir]

[meager valley]

Franco wins it every time

Didn’t realize he was younger than Mussolini

[pearl flume]

[heavy vigil]

Youll hate making them lol

They require so much land

[sudden grotto]

Why would i Need Tibet to form hindustan 💔

[heavy vigil]

You need japan for the chinese one

[sudden grotto]

At least they could add the decision to give the terriotry. No. Its a requirement

[sudden grotto]

[heavy vigil]

[sudden grotto]

Do i Need south Georgia for the south america One?

[heavy vigil]

Absolutely terrible

[heavy vigil]

I forgot

[sudden grotto]

Imagine not forming mittelafrika because you Need saint helena

[heavy vigil]

The american ones are also bad but not nearly as much as asia

[gilded vessel]

guys what should i do in this peacedeal its really alot of territory and i need recommendations

[heavy vigil]

Oh yeah

You need to form them after annexing the land

They dont auto annex it

So if you do it before annexing yourself its a huge pain to give them the correct territories

[lusty sable]

love when the allies do absolutely nothing!

[sudden grotto]

Lovely.

[gilded vessel]

more warscore for you

its not all bad

[lusty sable]

it was hell since i put expert ai on

you'd think the allies would attempt the d day

[gilded vessel]

i think the allies missed the "expert" ai update

[heavy vigil]

Oh thats besides the fact puppets dont contribute to eco of conquest unless they individually fill out one of the needed resource amounts

[gilded vessel]

atleast they are invading iran

[heavy vigil]

And that you lose more production from making rks than keeping them annexed

[lusty sable]

and failing

[heavy vigil]

Theyre so bad lmao

[lusty sable]

that war has been going on for 2 years

[candid pecan]

did hoi4 get an update

?

[eternal palm]

Probably some mods updating

[sudden grotto]

[heavy vigil]

Its updating so something's gotten an update

[halcyon pasture]

if the allies intervene on rhineland (custom game) are these designs worth it
just what I can mash together on day 1

[heavy vigil]

Hc1, improved small cannon and 11 ic light tank 💔

Ill load into the game and make day 1 designs in vanilla for you if you want

But those are all quite poor

[sudden grotto]

Hollon. They dont help with the autarky thingy?

[heavy vigil]

I mean it could be worse

[heavy vigil]

They do if they individually meet one of the requirements

But combined say 2 have 400 steel each

It would only count for 400 steel to requirements

Its not additive

[silk furnace]

damn

thats crazy

honestly i would not let that slide

[heavy vigil]

And like

They dont start with techs

They dont get OP german production bonuses

Ai is known to mishandle occupation

And they dont get cores

Theres no reason to make them

[sudden thistle]

6.4 is the max u will need all game

[sudden thistle]

I’m just guessing I’m still confused by that

[halcyon pasture]

I built a disgustingly good 14.2km speed tank division in the late game lol

Mechanized

[gilded vessel]

it should be going 30km speed so its more like a car

[halcyon pasture]

Motorized could do like 16km but meh

14.2km with advanced mediums go brr

But interwar 5.9 speed is a big number

[inland violet]

The crazy thing is that some Russia players actually think the early war with turkey and Romania is good

Just dumb map painters lmao

[heavy vigil]

12 base

[viscid drift]

from this

[silk furnace]

damn

[viscid drift]

to this

is it better

[silk furnace]

thats a lot of poland

[heavy vigil]

You did some things wrong

Like a lot of things

[silk furnace]

its prob worse

[viscid drift]

alot

[silk furnace]

couse ussr

[heavy vigil]

Because germany is OP if played well

I wouldnt recommend it as starter nation

[agile dagger]

I'm not an experienced player (literally never played the soviets and playing the uk for the first time lol) so idk but isn't it very much valid to take out romania early to reduce the barbarossa frontline

[inland violet]

Yeah I could see it working if Russia spams mountaineer divisions

Also it kinda depends how fast you cap both countries

[brittle cypress]

why wouldn't it be good

you can steamroll them and get a ton of free industry

[inland violet]

Trust me man you won’t have problems with civs as Russia even them Romania and turkey have like 0 mills

And it’s a very early war

[brittle cypress]

more factories is always better

[neat kayak]

why does the acw takes so long

[inland violet]

So like that won’t get any

[sudden thistle]

How is it not good

[inland violet]

It’s not core so you might get like 2 factories

[brittle cypress]

google liberated workers

or harsh quotas

that's not how it works

[sudden thistle]

Liberated workers+ compliance over a few years add up

And then the Germans don’t get Romania either

More oil

[inland violet]

Waste of manpower and time mate also russias air at the start suck so if there is a player on RO they will find a way to shred it with AA plus I get tunnel vision microing so I would be behind on reasrch but that’s just me gng

[grizzled zenith]

I'm playing as a 1 tile Danzig(in R56) and I'm planning to fight Germany that completely surrounds me later on, what divs do I do? Marines?(Nearest mountains are far away and there are a lot of rivers so marines will help me more, and I can only get like 2 divisions before war+1 starting crappy duv)

[brittle cypress]

lol?

[sudden thistle]

Manpower

As the Soviets

[inland violet]

Yes

Manpower

[sudden thistle]

And if ur Russia u shouldn’t be doing air

[brittle cypress]

the impementrable romanian AA (12 divisions) against the entire soviet army

lmao

[sudden thistle]

What are u on 💔

[inland violet]

You can build aa mate

[brittle cypress]

romania dies in the first month no matter what

[inland violet]

Yall just don’t have enough hours on SOV like I do

[brittle cypress]

naval invasions on the entire coast + battleplan

simply not enough divisions

you have skill issue if you lose to romania

[sudden thistle]

And how much would that be

[inland violet]

1 hour and like 2 minutes

[brittle cypress]

i can't believe i fell for the bait

[sudden thistle]

Fair point

[brittle cypress]

alr i have to finish an assignment bye

[sudden thistle]

Same lol

[inland violet]

I have 1000 on Romania tho

[grizzled zenith]

Why play virgin largest country in the world when you can play minors like Luxembourg and form the EU as them and beat crap out of the Soviets

[sudden thistle]

But like actually, the Romanian army starts severely under equipped

[inland violet]

Your cooking

[inland violet]

Just go cavalry only

Ez fix

[halcyon pasture]

Whats the best interwar tank to conquer usa with

I wanna have the war over by christmas

[heavy vigil]

all soviet early war gaming is fantastic

the ussr scales decently economically but poorly in tech

or you can choose tech and have no good industry

[heavy vigil]

inf

probably

unless youre out of manpower completely

[gilded vessel]

civilian economy?

[normal zenith]

Indeed

[atomic spoke]

raided that region for the past year and had the same succes and they stll use the same route lol

[grizzled zenith]

What is the best doctrine?(For 1 state minors)

[muted marsh]

Collapsing world is a ton of fun

[heavy vigil]

depends on your army and if you can fill combat width

[muted marsh]

Superior fire power is my go to

[grizzled zenith]

I'm playing as Danzig in R56, I'm going marines because I have a very good and cheap naval chief and I'm planning on attacking Germany after I get the cores on some of it's territories

I only have 1 division of 4 militias and I'm going to create 2 SF divs

Probably marines

Idk what doctrine to go tho

[heavy vigil]

mass mob if you have like 1mil + core pop within europe

probably needs to be 5-6 mil + for asia

otherwise gbp is best stats

in road you can egt like 1000 weekly people or something tho

[grizzled zenith]

I have 400k core pop but I'll get cores on Ermland-Masuren and Köningsberg

So if I can capture them I'll have like 4-5 mil core pop

[grizzled zenith]

How? It's only 100 and if you're not fascist it can be 200

But Danzig is fascist

[heavy vigil]

100 is nothing

[grizzled zenith]

Exactly

[heavy vigil]

i thought there was some thing for like 2k weekly

[grizzled zenith]

So I'm trying to switch to communist if I can

[heavy vigil]

some stupid government thingy

[neat kayak]

does capitals target screen?

[grizzled zenith]

Yeah there is 1 that gives you 100 weekly manpower and a one that gives 200 but it's twice as expensive and you can't take it while fascist

[neat kayak]

@warm forum

i am going to war soon

and idk if this happens

[heavy vigil]

yes

[grizzled zenith]

Roosevelt:Finally a worthy opponent

[uneven basin]

does dislike germany trait even do anything

[grizzled zenith]

Nah, it's purely cosmetic

But the leader of Danzig is Roosevelt's worst enemy

[noble turtle]

wtf

[neat kayak]

my navy doesn't catch someone

[grizzled zenith]

Who needs a navy

[neat kayak]

i wanna learn navy

[muted marsh]

Now we need "doesn't really care either way about germany"

[grizzled zenith]

What I do is spam cheap small naval bombers and they decimate the Allied navy given the fact that I have good fighters to protect them

Also spam okay-ish subs

And steal navies

[grizzled zenith]

XD

[neat kayak]

I lost every ship cuz i got into a big fight with R.N

[grizzled zenith]

That's why I don't go into naval fights until I secure mainland Europe for which I don't need a navy(I'm mostly playing in Europe)

[fallow grove]

I think devs should balance minors in a way that a minor can be useful to keep alive

Like turkey or romania they are more useful annexed

Instead of alive

[grizzled zenith]

Mountaineers or marines?(My closest mountains are far away and I do have a bunch if rivers nearby, I'm Danzig)

[grizzled zenith]

I'm going to create 2 divisions to defend against Germany

[fallow grove]

Marines only good if you naval invade other than that just use mountaineers

[grizzled zenith]

But rivers

[neat kayak]

I was USA

[grizzled zenith]

Oh yeah the US does need navy

But because of your position you can declare war on the whole world and do the same thing I did

[fallow grove]

Lol

[warped flint]

Gonna slow down at adding mill sto tank production now

[grizzled zenith]

If I can capture Ermland-Masuren and Köningsberg before Germany attacks Poland I have like 5 million core manpower

But there is a river between Danzig and Ermland-Masuren

So I can't attack

Marines get buffs against rivers

[fallow grove]

Add more

[warped flint]

I gout enough for now

i will later

ill let the efficency catch up

[fallow grove]

In 3 years

😹

[warped flint]

Eh

much less

its already at 12 a day

Is there anything i can do to get Turkey to join the Axis

[rain quail]

she had signed?

who signed it

[rain quail]

no not possible

its possible allies though

[warped flint]

Darn

What losers

[rain quail]

unless you get coup or somethigm

[split bane]

It makes the AI less likely to join or help Germany ig

[fallow grove]

Yes

The us will never accept to join axis if fdr is country leader

[neat kayak]

okay i learned the mistake

navy is good

never fight big stacks of ships

why does the ai sink my spotters?

[serene token]

Probably the same reason as to why enemy spies are put in prison.

[sudden thistle]

If u puppet them they will join ur faction

Trust me lol

[warped flint]

🤯

I forgot about 1940 planes

only remembered in late 1938

so

will get those in 1940

[dusky burrow]

ASW cruiser be like

I forgot sonar whooops

[fallow grove]

Who do yall think is the best country leader in the whole game

[nocturne cedar]

on historical btw

[warped flint]

when somone does something alternate, especially as germany nations tend go weird with stuff

like i went communist as france

and germany did a peacefull danzig transfer

[nocturne cedar]

HOLY

SPAIN IS DOING A FULL COUNTER ATTACK

the nationalists were on the gates of madrid and suddenly due to italian civil war, the spanish democrats counter attacked

nvm

they lost the push

[warped flint]

My fuel reserves are already almost out

i just started the war

like

[warped flint]

under a month ago

[warped flint]

Damn

Nationalist spain is cooked

[nocturne cedar]

you didnt build enough synthetic refs

[warped flint]

Trust

[warped flint]

Yeah

[nocturne cedar]

no

look

[warped flint]

i just traded

Yeah there cooked

spain is winning

trust

[nocturne cedar]

no

spain lost like

[nocturne cedar]

90% of it cores

[warped flint]

I am being sarcastic

Spain is getting incinerated

[nocturne cedar]

WHY U NO WAR LUXEMBURG

[neat kayak]

every time i try to have a fair fight

the whole navy cames

how do i sank something if the whole navy always come?

[serene token]

Maybe use planes.

[neat kayak]

bro it's easy to use nav bombers

[serene token]

So use them.

Unleash the best way of sinking a ship.

Become the ammo.

[neat kayak]

Oh no Briain

[modern bison]

is this a good light tank template

[rustic furnace]

no

Ok real question here, does a "good" light tank template even exist

I never see anyone use lights

Only ever mediums, and heavies

[modern bison]

its early game

[rustic furnace]

How early

[modern bison]

1936 rn

i wanna go for poland early

[rustic furnace]

Then dont make tanks

Make special forces

and infantry

[warped flint]

Just to lazy to

i will after i take france

[rustic furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/im-in-danger-gif-21942122

Luxembourg in a nutshell:

[modern bison]

i literally cannot ever push poland with just infantry

it just becomes a stalemate

due to ass supply

[rustic furnace]

Well thats why I said special forces with air

[warped flint]

Did i prepare enough

i am scared

[buoyant pumice]

Make an offensive line for battle plan bonus

[warped flint]

I already gave up

[buoyant pumice]

And get some infantry there to prevent thr tanks from being encircled

[warped flint]

luxembourg captured berlin in what feels like a second

[buoyant pumice]

Damn

[modern bison]

how do i fix my supply issues while fighting poland

[robust lily]

Trucks

[cobalt cave]

Absolutely DIABOLICAL😭 😭 😭

Goodbye A.C

[dusky burrow]

@heavy vigil you hate to see it, but I only started making tanks in 1942

[dusky burrow]

RIP Royal Navy

[heavy vigil]

what do i hate

is this uk or iraq

[dusky burrow]

The heavy cannon iiis

Persia

[heavy vigil]

oh its fine

ahh ok

just go advanced atp

[dusky burrow]

Skoda MIO

[dusky burrow]

Except I researched zero AT upgrades

This is from the AA tree

[heavy vigil]

yeah

thats fine

[heavy vigil]

shouldve known im sorry :(

[dusky burrow]

Yeah Henschel was unavailble since I went to war with Germany

[heavy vigil]

henschel is bugged anyway

doesnt get special traits

[glad sun]

Im on hist ai any conditions for puppet spain

[dusky burrow]

I see

[dusky burrow]

Iran gets three MIOs - Skoda, Henschel, and a generically named standardized production MIO btw - and Henschel and Skoda are mutually exclusive

Why did you guess Iraq btw?

[heavy vigil]

model

didnt look at MIO

[dusky burrow]

Ah I see

[heavy vigil]

tbh

AA 3 getting HC 3 is kinda goated

[warped flint]

It probably was a bad idea to start this war in winter

[rustic furnace]

No one knows

[lusty sable]

if u help them win civil war they should become a puppet

[heavy vigil]

you can divert into tanks rlly easily as a minor power just doing AA line

[lusty sable]

they can revolt from u later tho

[dusky burrow]

Iraq gets Vauxhall and Porsche in addition to their generically named standardized MIO btw, and gets them unlocked at the start of the game!

[real isle]

is my cas working?

[limpid field]

Yes

[real isle]

ok

[real isle]

but

[limpid field]

But?

[real isle]

i cant see the planes interface

is it the mod?

and it doesnt even show the "air support" thing

[limpid field]

You have 13 planes

[real isle]

that doesn eman anything

[modern bison]

yo is ts a good early game medium tank template

[limpid field]

👍

[silk fern]

thanks argentina

[muted marsh]

German Civil war finished on 9th of june

My first sub 3 month time

[limpid field]

But didn't you do it in 3 months

Or you didn't pick the civil war as your first focus?

[muted marsh]

Picked it as my first

11th of march to 9th of june

[limpid field]

Barely sub 3 months

[muted marsh]

So?

Sub 3 is sub 3

[dusky burrow]

BTW guys

If you had to use only one tank cannon for the rest of HOI4 history, what would it be

[limpid field]

I would use infantry

just a day after the well known november 7th speech in addressing the soviet front against german aggression

[crimson knot]

I got a ryzen 7 5700X just to play HOI4, and cant even make it past 1945 without having insane lag :/

[modern bison]

hoi4 uses cpu i believe

[crimson knot]

yeah, and only one core, or something, even tho my cpu is pretty good i cant play much without optimization mods, which kinda make the game easier

[dusky burrow]

But piercing

And hard attack

[misty fossil]

what is going on

[misty fossil]

average eu4 game

[rough pond]

What mod do people play for a challenging barbarossa as soviets

[misty fossil]

if i declare war on someone whos guaranteed by the UK, but if im also guaranteeing the UK, then does it drag the UK into the war?

[misty fossil]

sheep's mod

black ice

[rough pond]

Without adding too much complicated stuff I mean

[misty fossil]

sheeps mod

[rough pond]

Do I need to buff ai countries in any way?

[misty fossil]

for the mod?

no need

[rough pond]

Ya

It’s challenging without?

[misty fossil]

sheeps mod plus manual buff is impossible to play against

just keep the default settings

its already hard enough

that mod forces AIs to adopt meta strategies

[rough pond]

Kk

[misty fossil]

civ boosting, meta tanks and planes, licence production and so on

soviet infantry meat wall

[rough pond]

Should I try Soviets or Germany first with that mod

And do I have to use like pvp templates and strats

[misty fossil]

i think germany is easier just because you have more mils if you mil greed aggressively

[rough pond]

Like strat bombing heavy tanks etc

[misty fossil]

yeah you absolutely have to use mp templates and strategies

[rough pond]

Kk ty

[misty fossil]

dont bother with strat bombing

you need every mil you have for tanks and fighters

[rough pond]

Kk

[rough pond]

22/0 mass assault inf won’t work?

[misty fossil]

oh hell no

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JV2tDbNYstc&t=970s

you dont go MA as germany

[sudden thistle]

Nuh uh

[heavy vigil]

you can

[misty fossil]

as a beginner

i mean

beginner to sheeps mod

[sudden thistle]

I did a gun only sovs once with sheep’s mod

[rough pond]

Ty

[misty fossil]

how hard is sheeps mod actually

[heavy vigil]

you dont have to

[heavy vigil]

depends who ur oplaying

you choose your difficulty

[misty fossil]

overall

i mean

[heavy vigil]

allied gameplay is super chill

theres no overall

[sudden thistle]

Uhh

[misty fossil]

really

interesting?

[heavy vigil]

you choose your difficulty based on nation

if theyre important for tech rush/battles it matters

[sudden thistle]

Just try it yourself ngl

It’s easier to see it like that than just explaining it

[rough pond]

True

Kk I’ll try it now, ty for rec

[heavy vigil]

try allies first

theyre easy

like some allied minor

[rough pond]

Historical Poland 😂

[heavy vigil]

then play idk secondary axis role

like spain, finland

then go to play like comintern/axis majors

[rough pond]

Kk

[heavy vigil]

good way to gauge

[sudden thistle]

British Malaysia

[heavy vigil]

allied majors are yk allied majors

can be fun

but ehh

[rough pond]

Too easy?

[misty fossil]

i mean based on the minmaxing ive seen in those guide videos im pretty sure that means sheeps mod is p hard

[heavy vigil]

no

mid

[heavy vigil]

as germany you have to minmax

as ussr too

as others not rlly

just play ur role

[sudden thistle]

Whenever I play, I don’t min max as much as they do

[heavy vigil]

do ur tech rushes

[misty fossil]

oh

[sudden thistle]

It’s not required but very recommended

[heavy vigil]

eh

not rlly

just play less impact countries if you wanna chill

[rough pond]

Wdym tech rushes?

Like rush 1940 planes and 1940 heavies?

[heavy vigil]

no one needs 1940 heavies

but say youre romania you have to rush improved small for axis
