imma just check how other mods do it
with 4 million on the field
cuz i cant find a vid
my situation is tricky
this is tricky
kind of
im gonna invade like all of europe
Hm
Hi marcus
Hi Casey
Aggressive.
Lose formation. 
Just put everything on the Rhine and battleplan smh
Other countries don’t exist
i mean they have like 300 or 400 divisions
do you have more guns than they do
yes
Fine I just got out of a class
Ok I was joking you should probably still hold the other borders
Do you know what a field marshal frontline is btw?
Also what year is it
41
yes i do and you can see them
Okay
Well that was easy
Hate this mod
why
What mod
Im trying to get funni special project tanks but its country locked and crashes if i use commands
:(
Sorry for not playing FRANCE smh
when i had 1k hours on hoi4 i never ever took britain as germany in ironman mode and one day i did it and every since then its been really easy
damn my last hoi4 game made me so mad that im making a mod to remove historical paths
fricking uk doing historical
Welcome
Are amor piercing bombs good on carrier planes?
they turned casey blue 😔
Is there any possible advantage over torpedos
turns them into cas planes if you do that
theres some usage but id just stick with torpedo bombers
When knocking France and England, you could (as Portugal) release Mozambique and Angola beforehand as puppets to let them form Mutapa and Latin Africa, if you give them the territories in the Peacedeal.
Why would you do that, you would ask? Style Points.
(Checked with console)
Also, whats the role of fighters in carriers? What exactly can they do
do you get cores if you do the conference?
None
Don’t use
kill other naval fighters, not useful in singleplayer
You won't core states outside Angola or Mozambique.
So no cores on the formables for Portugal.
Not useful in multiplayer either
ah i thought i heard people used them but ive never played mp
They should probably add uses to them. Strafing ships with fighters was an insanely common strategy in naval warfare
It cleared anti air defenses on ships for the bombers
i mean they were more useful at killing enemy fighter/bombers though
i think the issue is that they dont function as planes in naval battles like they do in an air battle
belgium how u did this bro 😭
Probably need buffs to counter enemy bombers
i fr only overrun a armyless yugoslavia
and 2 of my italian soldiers died to belgians
They r used by Japan cos carrier fighter is rly cheap for them, and used in carriers to offset overstacking penalty since they dont get in the battle
Maybe they got shot down by powerful Belgium fighters
after 500 hours of gameplay ive just now realised that theres a tutorial
Its not very good tbf
dose anyone know when the new dlc is coming out
i wish this happened
wait its confirmed to be a dlc?
i do
yes obviously
paradox wont fix their shitty dlcs or shitty game
so they made 2 dlcs for the same countries
they will sell it as dlc
thats so scummy
yup and we are rebuying it
i hate that
how greedy do you have to be
i know
i was excited for a good free update
never happening my bro
dont be delusional that never happened
watch it add a really good and needed game mechanic too
paradox ruined my day with this
many more days will be ruined
Help me please
Whenever i try to play kaiserreich or tno
It freezes at the main menu
I can do nothing
To fix it
Ive done nothing and everything
Do you have conflicting mods with Kaiserreich?
Now it launched me back to the “loading” screen
“What do you mean I can’t play kaiserreich and tno at the same time”
Just Kaiserreich?
Besides kaiserreich
Yes
Bro i said whenever
strange
Hmm. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling?
Both mods are broken
Yes
Ive done
EVERYTHING
Have you reverified the game's integrity?
Besides reinstalling windows
Yep
Waste of time
The music is still playing even tho its not responding
So wait what exactly is happening? You get stuck at the main menu and the game goes not responding?
Literally never had that happen to me
I load into the main menu
At first it seems fine
But when u try to click anywhere
Then the blue loading wheel
Comes up
Then if u click again HOI4 is not responding
Ok so just to be clear, other mods other than TNO and kaiserrreich work and vanilla hoi4 works as well?
And if u wait it goes away but if u try to do anything again same thing
All mods ive played worked besides tno and kaiserreich
Tfr millenium dawn and others work fine 0 problems
that is extremely strange
Are you sure you have the right version of the mod?
Have to ask
Ive reinstalled hoi4 manually deleted all mods deleted paradox folder
Yup from the steam workshop
Paradox launcher doesnt give the wrong version triangle
And it doesnt like crash it just doesnt respond infinitely
Im going crazy over this
I'm not so sure how else I can help you at this point. Maybe the Tech helpers could help you out with your issue #tech-support
Well
Nobody responds there to me
So no point
Ive tried 2 times
I think
There
My strategy is peak
bro i ordered my navy to stay on port, why they leave? they wanted to get clapped by the royal navy that bad??
Try the Kaiserreich discord?
Chatgpt gave up on helping me.. im tweaking
Ok im banned from the tno one for idk what reason so ima try there
The enemy must have taken the port or something
It is a good morning ☕
I do not understand
Gonna get a cheeseburger today for National cheeseburger day
demanded polish subjugation and the civil war fired as i was waiting for them to respond
now im left with this 😭
Incomprehensible
good
you got a problem with the borders?
i think they look nice
There's currently an EaW game starting soon and it's making everyone lose their braincells
just made it even better
🐴
ive been trying to host
it for so long
Oh in this discord?
yes
That’s crazy
join
Can’t
@mossy lichen The country you are playing does not have content
Classes
You may like to play Yarildom of chital or something else
The continent you are in, Zebrica does not have enough content
Only in the northern nations
Kingdom of Hippogriffia, Realm of Kiria, Yarildom of Chital, Chiropterra, Tobuck, Zarantia, and Kingdom of Abyssinia
ah yes
they'll reject my demands
because they decided to join the chinese faction
for no reason at all
love this game
nevermind
You are better off going into Griffonia or Equus
Boltira has no content @mossy lichen
You could probably play a Griffonian Major
Only Chital has content
You might be interested in a Beakolini for Wingbardy in Southern Griffonia. Purple nation @mossy lichen
truth nuke
I support austrian expansionism
join
I can join your game to set them up, but other than that I won't be able to play. I'm pretty busy
well go ahead
idm
its not mine its nates
and you'd have to talk to him
These railways are so clean that you could do open heart surgery on them ❤️🙏
the second i justify on a democratic nation to make the garauntors run out of pp they turn communist
hi
so set to not engage or set to engage on low?
gonna play Imperial Germany with the Kaiserin
UK better not go Monarchist or Communist
Got the game going and some player troubleshooting so it's good
Equestria at war is genuinely a good mod idk why it took me so long to realize
Changeling Empire is surprisingly powerful
Except against the polar bears, that was not fun
idk, i just put them on naval invasion support and stationed on the port, then when i check the invasion they just on the sea getting bombed by the royal navy
btw the situation
has definitely changed
holy macaroni as italians say i think
It's not exaclty mp friendly unfortunately
So anything these kind of happen, I gotta be there to direct folks to nations with actual content
Yeah but I’m still having fun
So long as you are having fun
Tho I might try to do the Luna playthrough for Equestria
Nightmare Moon
Yeah that one
You can always do an equus only game
I feel like it would work best with everyone on the same continent at least
Thy tried doing that....
But with Zebrica
So everyone moved to Griffonia
my historical focuses remover mod somewhat works 🙏🏼
works but ai needs to actually pick the focuses
I'm playing Daybraeker on the other hoof
I was so caught off guard when I got the notification about dawnbreaker cause idk anything about the lore lol
smh even after beating germany i still need to continue this run as i want to get the achievement for getting all german cores as austria
Fire fit though
i gotta beat up france now
Daybreaker is the altside to Princess Celestia, much like Nightmare Moon is the altside to Princess Luna
Ohh ok thx
ahh the gdr flag with democratic germany
this a good design?
Nightmare moon did get a recent glow up
this is me
I guess, but I usually keep it bare until I get armored plates or self sealing fuel tanks
fair
W planes
are they made with cardboard or what
do you have bba
Nah
damn
fr😭
I could also do Walter White
So im playing as communist iran and im in war with the allies. I am just defending my territory but i got air superiority. Should i switch to making cas or keep producing shitty fighters?
Do the most recent controversial person.
Probably divert some mils too CAS
🐴
not too much tough
i got 12 mils and i got 4 on fighters
gee I sure hope nothing bad happens to Wilhelm III
Good Efficiency?
Check your logistics
no resources
True
Cooked
because i am literally in war with half of the world
+usa and mexico
axis is killing soviets where i am buying all of my iron
so if germany kills em all of my production will get the penalty for missing resources
What could possibly go wrong?
guys will they join the allies if i declare war on them?
What you playing as?
i dont even know when i got into a war with the allies
lo
Yo
rip germany
Albania
BRO
Join axis and take west macedonia and kosovo
Join the battle against greece
Participate against the soviet union
Defend from avalanche
You have game impact opportunity
ok thanks at least you gave me goals
im not even being satire
i got nukes as albania once
Albania if they locked in
guys will they join the allies if i declare war on them
my starting setup
we ball
xd
lets get the Kaiser back and spam 8/0's and 22/0's 🗣️
invading turkey early game as ussr is a better choice than volunteer spamming
romania guarantees turkey
which means you get both of them, just naval invade
when will the next sale be?
if germany ends up at war with them, they aint getting no oil from romania (if they hold, otherwise much less than usual) and no chromium for turkey
true...
did that before I went Monarchist as the USSR
👑
they were still bitter about their failed coup in Austria that Italy thrawted
in 1934
its not like the italians and germans were in good ties before like 1937 or so
maybe 1938 but im not sure
unlike what hoi4 says
"same ideology: +10"
nothing else...
yeah there was general animosity between the two
reminds me of Communist China and the USSR post WWII
To clarify, because of the Peruvian-Ecuadorian war, Ecuador is a special case
It can't join factions
And so can't Peru until it wins that war
you can be the same or a similar ideolgy but not be friendly towards one another
examples include Rome and Carthage (elected Republics), Ottoman Empire Italy, Germany, Austria Hungary and Russia ( Monarchies)
Stalin, where are you?🤣
same place tsar nicholas is
what year?
i know
btw, there's mechanic quite unfair in HoI4, i made a fascist coup in france in order to invite to faction the nationalist france, but at the moment the coup started they joined the axis. Axis seems to eat all the countries in his faction while i cant have a positive join from every fascist or nationalist faction i boosted
us will ask you to back down.if you reject they will join the war
wait what country are you
if you also have the monroe doctrine national spirit they wont join the war
even the brit kingdom joined the axis without any affinity...
the netherlands
wow AI
Hi
True Union of Britain vs Fake Union of Britain
how can this happen?
tf lmao?
took me 2 years im fascist albania finally
nice
6 factories and going strong
nice im moustrache man`s only friend
just doing a small push :3
good
yeah
Aren't there 2 doctrines that increase recruitable population?
i dont understand whar is going on there
The first (on the end, left side) and forth Doctrine (right side) allow 5%.
Now I see it
Yes and the one on the right is like second best in the game lmao
my question here is why are you playing democratic brazil
aka the worst path
@flat barn my germany is incompetent
carry them
lazy bones
chezcs refused sudeten now germany me and italy are running the gauntelt of europe
why the hell are you playing albania
how much breakthrough should a medium tank template in 1939 have?
idk i asked in chat guy told me albania
Because, as a living, sentient being, with free will, i can do whatever i want
so 592 is enough?
yes
what about the recommended breakthrough in a template?
just beacuse you can doesnt mean you should
multiplayer?
or just singleplayer
singleplayer
500 is like alot
really?
i mean
i thought it was like decent
chile with 70 factories
north america actually
also ignore the dutch rijk
LOOOL
wtf
are u on historical
ofr not
all random
hes missing out on reforming the brazilian empire
Cringe path
hes also missing out on having fun
I think you're forgetting other people declare war on you too, and so can you
hes just destined to fight the axis and nothing else
democracies cannot justify wargoals unless there is 100% world tension and the target country has caused world tension
even if they do, thats rare
thoughts?
no one cares for brazil if theyre democratic
also the only countries that might declare on you are germany
Yall are talking like you know whats going on my game
what are you even going to use this infantry tank for?
2240 inf equipment???
this
Add aa
Uk is commie
If u dont have green air
i will
Flame also helps
flame too expensive
i dont even want to ask what is happening in turkey and kazakhstan
are you ahis?
or no
shit im not paying attention to
Just base off of this and change as needed/if needed
german empire is the problem here
anti tank?
you could have gotten like 10 divisions encircled by the way its looking
Replace with aa that's more mp
You commented on how i was playing as Brazil, but somehow missed the communist civil war in the union of britain...
i don't really care my inf equipment and overall production is trough the roof i can poop 1 billion divisions on them but im lazy
i like playing trotsky soviet union more than stalin
federal russia is also bad
your life is not complete untill you get 10 thousand divisions like isorrow
had this once
covering all of my screen
thats not even 1000*
uruguay 
like they are a major threat
that was like 10 million fielded
yeah you should get 200 million fielded
my supply wasnt even that bad surprisingly
100 supply hubs vs 10 divisions
the union of britan will focus more on other countries in europe
also US will take a while to arrive at ur doorstep
WAIT NO WAY REXIST BELGIUM JOINS AXIS AND SAVES MY INCOMPETENT GERMANY
i hate the way britain no matter what path they go they just have to guarantee everyone
also
this but the guys are albanian instead of korean
invading them is painful and annoying aswell
and suddenly, they declared war
i had a worts one
Yeah but world tension has been at 100% since 1939
i hate that naval invasion noise
Its dam easy to block dday
just train up 72 10 width divs and level 10 forts
and ai cant do shi
its not dday its all the other random naval invasions they do every week
paratrooper > navy
the ai on their way to send underequipped green 16ws with 1936 tech on a dday 🔥
10 forts is way too overkill
u dont need to block it
let them land
ussr is dying :(
why are the Mughals in the Comintern?
why did you play for 23 years?
1959 🔥
because its funny to kill their stuff
they declared on india
also congrats on becoming a mod casey
fair
hearts of minecraft. Based
how can i get mil access from a country with basic reluctance?
how if we are different ideologies?
uhhhhhhhh
u cant most likely
reaching mid game now yeah
i dont think democratic nations like fascism
u cant attack from their territory if they arent in the war anyway
well a democratic estonia did allow me
also noobster this war started in like
i just need to save my ally from capitulation
1942/43
improve relations
it just stalemated for a bit
caps at 10
basic reluctance is 20
well 21 in my case
my friend is using the worst template ive ever seen in my life jesus
this is harder than i expected
5 soft attack is meta
im sleepy
can i have a scountry to play lendelman and gadies?
belgium
yeah no doubt the floridians are not something to mess with
what path
manchuko
idk belgium paths so i guess do the EU one
wait
thats all i know other than hist
ill flip coin
ok\
bro there aint no nun to do with manchu's old ahh tree 🙏
lets go
flip again
no belgium won fair and square
life is rigged against manchuko
yes because it SUCKS
last time someone rolled belgium 4 times in a row causing a 0.05% chance to happen and now a 50% chance lost
so its a 0.025% for manchuko to lose all theese times
id rather play luxembourg than MANCHUKUO
id rather play manchukuo than luxembourg
atleast you have a army
compared to luxembourg
with luxembourg you have a dream
with manchuko you have china combat
most minors are only fun in mp
ew china combat
i HATE china in vanilla hoi4
8 years war resistance is more fun
but japan needs china more than manchukuo
in multiplayer a major is a jet plane and you the minor are its jet wing
in singleplayer you are the jet and the major is a rock
2 percent stability 🥀🥀🥀
in sp why would you care
yea exactly
no
dockyard slots
burn compliance on harsh quotas then give to manchu for 65% mils
😢
man
like
when is africa going to finally see some real content and shit in a dlc
i just played my first south africa game after 3.8k hours
and i cannot believe how pathetically small and outdated that tree is
like
what
and theres also just nothing in africa either
🤓
they went to north
just let italy die in it
not south
ik but still
thats the same for all dominions
even seizing the suez
but india
just doesnt really have that big of an effect
i guess
i just prefer to dedicate those resources to actually getting a big fish that will make a real turnaround/powerup, like taking out the soviets
etc
i hope so
they should rework the generic focus tree 🙏
nah
ive always been very disappointed with how the african theater is portrayed in hoi4
but they nerfed it unfortunately
wdym 70 days for 1 civ is completely reasonable
lol
you want more?
yeah
this
used to give 2
this esp is just asinine
but they nerfed it
i dont want i need
"wait 70 days for... 2 whole air bases and 30 air xp :O"
2 ENTIRE air bases
wow
not just 1
not 1 and a half
2
wow!
22/0 or 10/8s as Germany?
going from 1 to 2 factories is a pretty big upgrade if you ask me
by 10/8's I'm refering to armored divs
huh
ppl in the world starving and u complain about 1 factory from the generic tree
the other one is GBP
whats a fun minor power i can play
that can just sit back and like
build up the whole war
and then do whatever i want
BULGARIA
for the 10/8 armored division
like think mengchuko or whatever country it is that can form qing
i played a game as them and i loved that
I've done massmob way too much lately
just building an army while japan wasted time in china
PLAY BULGARIA REVAN
gbp tanks is easier and quicker, but mass mob is to braindead win
wont bulgaria get attacked by the axis
tanks it is
there is
dude
i completely forgot to mention while whining about africa
the dumbest part of the south african national focus tree
the uk has a dam state in aswan and its their only dam state so they should build their land facility there
and thats it
This has happened 8 times already in this run
ah okay
Just Sealion. Problem solved
Classic
i genuinely thought
yeah
that this was the only fascist path for south africa
nazism in south africa
lmfao
i was like, "that is the stupidest shit ive ever seen; i can't go my own way and be some crazy warlord fascist state or something like that? I have to join the people who want to kill mine?"
"lol?"
wouldnt be anything new considering the regions history 👀
didnt see south africa first
i went the communist africa path because of that
also like
i wish i could have an independent democratic south africa
thats so boring
that'd be a cool focus/althistory thing; try and make your own democratic south africa, independent of the allies, or against them, or with them
yeah but more options is always nice
yeah but what do you do
once you become democratic
and independent
just play md if you want boring staring at the screen for 20 years
liberate ethiopia
puppet them/annex them
push all non-african democratic powers and fascist powers out
i just hate how with wars like that
you have to end the war by naval invading eg the us and the uk
there is no way to just sue for peace lol
"Alrighty guys, we just lost 5 milllion men destroying Germany, and 2 million destroying Japan... Is the will still there to go beat up the Democratic nations of Africa and re-subjugate them?"
"ya!!!!"
"always! tally hoe!"
"da"
i forgor to check my storage
lol
from who 😭
from ethiopia
it wouldnt be too hard just
drive on in go
"PEOPLE OF ETHIOPIA"
"DO YOU WANT ROADS"
"OK GOOD. WE WILL PAVE THEM WITH THE BODIES OF ITALIANS"
i dont need md for that
You can fund a lot of people with that
you can just leave the game
yk what really speeds late game hoi up is having a 200mil+ casualty war
200 million casualties 🙁
in my game ai vs ai is sitting at 225mil combined casualties both sides
RIP
well it depends on who would be ruling
its great wdym
if it was native anti-apartheid leadership, it would make sense
after the peacedeal i can disband factions and the game will run like butter
or something
Yeah south africa probably needs a focus tree rework
You're US?
no
send save :3
im playing with germany to get the achievement for controlling usa with a female leader
Just CAS them to death and infantry mass mob assault
Easy 😎
Take the Canal Zone and then convoy raid the Caribbean to cut their aluminum access
nvm i might have overraected
hi guys
i need to clean this ai peacedeal up
When the pro allies path requires you to fight the allies
What can i change here? (yes im adding flame tank soon)
the 2 last aa with tanks and mototised with mechs
and use field hospital
its either field hospitacl or flame
Flame tanks I guess
and use a correct tank design
i got lost in the sauce
I mean they could and should most times, you might just not want to make air
your tank is like 20 IC
it should have been 10 IC
logi is fine, he can replace the aa or arty
Tank design is probably fine
so what is this shi
Replace support arty with mev
Oh shoot didn't notice they're adding flame tanks soon
lol yeah
Which mev? Since they already have engineers
max clicks in sp is wild
and use ANY OTHER MIO than MAN
Welded armor in singleplayer is wild
this should reduce to cost to around 15
and you don't really need 14/14 either, if you cut those you can go down to 12
16-18 I believe, 15 is with easy maintenance
cost is mostly from clicks
Mb I’m blind
Is armored maintenance that bad btw? Asking since it allows you to recover equipment
25% with the additional click cost is what makes it so expensive
yeah
bro i helped a sinkiang defeat panama but they created a puppet that has strategic reasons to be hostile to me right at the border i needed to reach to save my ally
sinkiang has no problem giving me mil access but their puppet hates me for some reason
youre the first person in history to say that sentence
congrats
tibet?????
yeah
what am I looking at
a mod that randomizes country placements
why didnt you say this before 😭
is there a mod that makes each state in the united states a separate country?
like fym u helped sinkiang take panama
they are on a random japanesse island and in scandinavia
panama was attack sweden
Relatable
but sweden is landlocked so i needed to get there another way
so through panama i went
also im struggling with unitary canada in south africa
especially since they are being helped by shanxi
but nicaragua and nationalist spain are helping
man i dont even wanna know
okay i genuinely give up on this achievement 😭
man the US is not looking great
alf landon presidential dictatorship
what time be a discount for hoi4?
Autumn Sale or Winter sale
Hey paradox newbie here
How to get started in hoi4 (watched a beginners tut before)
What nation?
watch more tutorials
Smash
Most likely Gernany since its beginner friendly
apparently he is from a parrarel universe where germany lost ww2
I actually wanna play and not watch tuts forever 😂
What DLC's?
if you wanna play and lose to ethiopia sure
Didn't Germany loose WW2-
no?
Downloaded the repack from fitgirl which includes all dlcs (50 in total) I think
I played as Ethiopia against my friend after teaching him everything (He remembered nothing) and I had 50k Casulties. He had 500k
yeah practice is better than theory
Tank templates, plane template, ship template tutorials are needed
If Germany lost the second weltkrieg I don’t think all of Europe would be in mitteleuropa and the kaiser would still be leading germany
Then you improvise as you get better
OH MY GOD I THOUGHT THEY MEANT WORLD WAR 2-
i strongly recommend you watch like 5 more tutorials on combat,supply,airforce,templates, and industry/research
Yea
Took my 50 hours to beat Poland
100 to beat USSR
200 to Understand navy and Beat UK
Theory lets you practice
Practice lets you theorize
I capitulated UK before ussr and with terrible navy and plans
I tried the same alter learning navy but failed
guy looks dead
I love multiplayer
lmao
He Looks more according to situu
play the tutorial, watch the official tutorial video on youtube, then watch bittersteels germany guide
Why can't I invade germany?
Are you in war with them?
yes - I am part of the allies
Do you have naval superiority?
Naval invade?
Hes with the UK so i think He has
that I what I am attempting
I think so
the green bar has filled up
You probably dont have naval superiority or enough convoys
Click the button
Ok I just have
WOW I am stupid
thank you for the help 🤣
No problem
Honestly no need
yeah but I want to at least be able to build some supply
Presumably you have good divisions
?????????
why does the entire world join the allies in non historical
no
Everyone says Hitler focus tree is strong but no one talks about the kaiser tree
Carve up congo to get Belgium for free return colonies and then expand pacific holdings to get france and Netherlands for free 😹
Then use their navies to destroy the uk
democratic one is the strongest
No war at all
No fun 🥲
ai democratic germany is the strongest ai germany
maybe
Is there other nation with strongest focuses than Germany?
I kinda just started WW3 in millennium dawn
I invited LUXEMBOURG
YES LUXEMBOURG
and nato acted like I invaded the us.
isnt that the whole point
Yeah but I didn’t even prepare
what country
You can be non aligned and integrate everything peacefully
md is very unbalanced
No need to be democratic
what path
Uk
Instead of going down to ultimatum Czechia go to align them then integrate economicaies and invite to custom unions
oh, youll be fine
just remember that ifvs are for attack
and apcs for defense
and tanks are op
so is air
idk never played it
But if you want a successful play trough you should go accept British naval dominance then carve congo then request old colonies then expand pacific holdings by 1938 you should have Netherlands and france and Belgium capitulated and their puppets as yours then invade Britain by manually justifying then use canada to attack the us
you can do that as fascist germany too
No because you dont get the congo silly
you do?
Its actually very depressing when you play ahist ai as the congo
And then you get that event
declare on belgium while u sealion
It’s harder because if you do that as fascist Germany Vichy france appears and you can’t take the fleet
I’ve capitulated the us and Canada
And you have to fight belgium, the UK, france and germany in like 1937
And you just lose or cry
uk fleet is all u need
silly
ah yes, the grand allied army in 1937
Youre the congo
no
hes germany
Nice
I said
PEACE CONFERENCE
