play as the um
a really good chance
i am doing skill gathering
that if the dunkirk assault was worse
I use it to form fascist Sweden and ez ally with nazis
the british could pull out
kill the lride of the fleet achievement?
and if the french were even more french
yep that stuff
French. Being more French huh
(if they didnt holdout so the british could escape)
ah
What's wrong with the focus tree
i cant be bothered with ironman
fair
Or simply hiring a fascist demagogue if no tree
alr
Lets bomb the French into my oblivion.
the remaining french forces held their ground against the germans so the british could evacuate their troops
if they didnt do that
oh boy
Im thinking I focus navy a little bit in 1936 and in 1937 I start just diving all in with military factories
i'm gonna nuke los angeles with fascist italy
amazing
The starting german navy production can give you naval superiority
need that crazy achivement lol
and dont make subs
Just build some more light cruisers after it finishes
Is the best plan for Germany in North Africa to avoid North Africa?
I have a really funny 1940 sub where you just spam torpedoes and have anechoic tiles
but its expensive
with the upcoming coal thing subs will become so much better at gutting war productions
so thats probably to go fight the USA
light cruisers with full light batteries, you can wipe enemy screens
but rn its not so useful
could just field some CVs
and blow everyting out of the water

Hey
destroyes when i deploy air nav patrols
lol
i'm baiting in the black sea in order to reduce the 50k airplanes superiority of the russian empires
air when i show up with my navy AND air force
This one?
Its just better
also my DEs have a decent bunch of AA
jets and new cannons are dam op, they can stand a 2 vs 5
Stat wise
crazy build bro
I am genuinely asking I dont know
I do not know how to use land cruisers
Well why wouldn't you want more stats
well I am wondering about the terrain bonusses and anti air
Well we cant see the terrain bonuses
But flame tank and assault engineers r very good for dealing with terrain
sorry I shouldve mentioned im doing a polish cavalry run
change mech for cav
but wow those stats are insane
Theyre mid tbh
Also add more supports
You wanna fill them out
Like with field hospitals
Is choosing August 1939 as start date bad
How to make them stronger
Nothing to really do
Play 1936 start and buff them
How do you buff them
Thanks
You could use toolpack for inf resources.
If thats what your going for
is that better then?
I have it
Looks great
Alright
thank you for the help!
Guys, BBA is kinda bad. Ethiopa is too hard and too restricting. No one plays Switzerland. Italy is the only focus tree you'll play. But even that focus tree is ok at best. The medal thing is rarely used. The only reason you'll buy BBA is for the plane designer.
Ive been saying this
And like 20 euros for a desinger is not worth it.
Also plane designer sucks
Why don’t they put the same menu for 1939
You always do the same thing or lose
It does.
It exists but wont meaningfully buff them
Ah ok
What if there was a 1933 start
What if I want a semi historical ww2 like Germany wins but loses
I bought it for the plane designer
probably a lot would change
idk depends how good you are
I wish they would just add the designer in the base game or atleast make a seperate fairly priced DLC for it.
all designers should be base game
Historically accurate in hoi terms
Its silly that we have to pay for such a vital feature
Thats paradox, apparently
Well, ethiopia is worse without BBA
For me in every hoi4 scenario Germany wins over the ussr and ussr ends up surrendering
Only 1 general and half the army
wait til you see eu4
unplayable without dlcs
Vic3 seems good without DLCs tbh
but its such a difficult game I am too dumb for it
I had a mental breakdown trying to take Ethiopa as Italy in BBA. I just now realised that you'll need to bring the mainland army to defeat it before he boards the train.
thats not true tho
he being the ehtiopian leader?
He is the emperor, not leader.
I guess so
Or 1921
He is a figurehead that's said to be chosen by heaven or so.
I so totally agree, 1933 would be perfect
So, play germany while planning hitler’s uprising?
yeah but do you see paradox ever making that many years worth of focus trees/content?
Nah maybe 1925 like during the Weimar Republic
But yeah it would either way
HOI4 is a ww2 game. Having a date set before Hitler even took power is a bit strange.
Nah forget 1925, how about 1870?
nah
hell nah
I dont like the Prussian-Franco war one bit
how about 1444 atp
I would perfectly happy with them just blocking focus trees until 1936 🤷♂️ I just hate how little time i have to prepare as some countries
Nah im locking in to 10 A.D
Greece, poland etc
Berlin conference start date
1485, battle of bosworth in hoi4
67 AD start date.
the polish king died in november 1444
Forget 67, how about 3000 BC?
Just enough time to build up for ww2
while leading an alliance against the ottomans iirc
How abt -50 BC
so that was a pretty big moment
Imagine waiting hundreds of years for world war 2 and then getting absolutely DESTROYED
What about 1615 prelude to the thirty years war
Caesar was 50 years old back then. Its a bit crazy to think about.
How infuriating would that be
polish, lithuanian and hungarian to be precise
how do I get russia to surrender? I dont want to capture all of Russia
Take the main cities ig
it is slightly realalistic for a cossack king but not really
collab govs
Looks like ur gonna have to get a ton of Russia buddy
What if Paradox released their own alternate timeline bookmark DLC
I like using the toolpack and declare war on all
And play as a minor nation
what is a collab government?
Guys, its the new DLC worth it? 50 euros.
guys what is supply grace?
if its 50 euros its gonna be alot more for me.
And we started the DLC cycle over again with the new timeline
Why are ppl hating on the Czechoslovakia dlc
Its 219 in my currency
💔
Its worth it, trust me. Supreme leader Fredrik Wester knows what's best for us. Buy it.
🤷♂️
Nope
Not this time
I'd say if you can buy the Czech one separately from the full pack at some point do that
I know I probably will, in part to support our modder communities that are working on it with Paradox
Hmm
Sounds good
Use tdebug or smt
omg I love landcruisers
It says error D01
Then its d01
Your welcome
you befriend another government and sing kumbaya around a big campfire with their leaders and officials under the starry night sky
invite stalin to a sleepover & he’ll happily give up the country
just kidding
Not a joke btw i did it once and it worked
In the game Hearts of Iron 4 there are a number of operations you can do with your intelligence agency. I would argue the most overpowered operation is "Prepare Collaboration Government". If you disagree or think I missed something I've love to hear about it in the comments.
As part of your hoi4 education it's important to know how to effectiv...
I wonder how Stalin never felt threatened the nazis wouldn’t invade him
once they got all Europe
make sure you toggle operations equipment priority to high
bro didnt read the tooltip
Me?
no, stalin
LOL FR
stalin didnt read the tooltip
Is he blind or smth
idk
DLC?
dlc
wait are you playing just the base game
oh to not own a single dlc
Which?
do you have la resistance
no
He did, but thought it would come later, which is why the Nazis were in a rush
oh the first word in the video is "with the la resistance dlc"
sorry for being a dumbass
Real
I have no idea how some people can find joy out of any hoi4 base game
thats like
Correction, any paradox game you mean
We’re the nazis planning to invade in May tho
or TW game for that matter
Yeah
He did, but not so fast, Stalin even planned a good way to March all the way to the rhine so
Tho purge and stuff slowed this process of his
Man The Guns became free.
Nice for new people.
Just annoying for people who bought it at full price (when it was new) or shortly before it became free.
You could argue that it is kind of due and not a big deal.
Issue is, it was NOT the first time.
The other integrated DLCs once were also somewhat expensive.
Meaning that Veteran players feel being ripped off with no real compensation.
The players, that made the game big and celebrated the game from the start.
If they would have gotten the music packs for free or like 3D models or like a coupon for a cheaper next DLC, it would have been fine (more or less).
But it didn't happen and now a the old dilemma kind of started all over again.
Lemme put on my glasses cause I love reading yap
I feel honored.
Ah I get it now
Thanks
When
Like a week ago or sth.
is this not beautiful?
And what that dlc include?
Navy i assume
How much is eu4?
Forgot I got it for free
50€ rn.
But Steam Sale should be soonish.
Otherwise check the Paradox Website or other keyseller.
Ehh f it ima get it for Christmas sale
I always buy things from IG
Should I buy la resistance? It feels like it will be added into the base game next major dlc. Its 5 years old and has outdated focus trees. And the espionage system is becoming a major thing in HOI4 that already now some DLCs are worse without it.
Ooh
How much will it cost in this sale
It’s ok I like Star Wars too
¯_(ツ)_/¯
EAW player?
I got this game in 2017
Empire at war
Sadly haven’t played it
Lowest recorded price appears to be 5€.
chat why do you think paradox wont let us have the USS langley?
Buying AT-ATs will never be unfunny. 
I'll just buy AAT.
I believe it is the base version.
Sooo additional content is additional content.
Then I can play as my home country.
I want eu4 cuz I like 1600s
Is Gustavos Adolphus in it?
finish the encirclement before you post
can anyone check #tech-support
Hoi4 is on sale again.
you got 1 tile wide lines with no supply
?
is there a channel where I can make suggestions?
just scream in here till paradox listens
thats what i did and boom australia dlc announced
LIBERA ET IMPERA!!!!!
No, maybe on the forums
alright I will just msg the bot see if it does something, hope something happens

I suggested a fashion chat for this server, i wouldve been able to show, but apparently that 'doesnt fit the theme' or something dumb
keep the hoi4 server strictly related to hoi4, god forbid a community forms here
also how is fashion not fitting the theme but pets and food are lol
(im joking but it wasnt added 😔)
How does the "looking for mp 1" channel work? Do you just connect and ask for a partner?
You join and pray someone takes pity on you and invites you to play
yo wsg
im like thin asw but twice a week i do sm that requires so much exercise that most guys my size would collapse to the floor
Ohh nice
Exercise is awesome
Proud of you for getting through that, very impressive!
W encirclement
its more so my mindset of "just get on with it and dont complain"
Im way too good at this game
Do that, it reduces CAS damage significantly
(if you don't have enough air)
Actually, do that for piercing
Did you watch the segslop video
left the game it was actually so boring
Yeah, like wtf
i played soviet union and germany couldnt push me meanwhile i barely had 1 million men
one of my mods has to be breaking the AI cuz how can they be that bad
At least the AI won't exploit that, so AA can still be worth it
idek how to use all those factories
i'd start making tanks and planes but we dont have the tech
is this normal for the AI
Not yet...
Show game?
This feels very game breaking
i was playing the soviets i tagged them
i wanted them to push me so i didnt deploy anything but they just couldnt
Lol
thanks for that
i dont get it i never had them get guaranteed by anyone
neither on historical or non historical
You can probably immediately declare war on Ecuador after getting war goal

Panzer 4 e?
Panzer 4 h?
Panzer 4 g?
The one with the 75
I haven't played warthunder but I played World of Tanks until I got bored of it
They're all the same except with added armor skirts or mg on top
A TON of differences
and that was in 2019
If you Say Pz IV F1 id the same as a J model
Why is there no god damn warning that it will take away so much territory?!
Well.
You are cooked
war thunder has that damage system going on
Theyre just the same chassis
Yes
The F1 got way thinner armor
In another way of explaining, yukari would go insane.
Eh man
The J11 Is the same as the J29
J11 the su27?
The biplane
Your comparison isn't a good one
No its good ngl
The same of you with pz IV :D
Profile
The scorpion?
The arty?
No no the new one
I haven't played this year idk the new one
The newest one in the german tech tree
The big ass cannon?
But ngl i do some mistakes when encountering a kv-1
I forget to shoot the turret sides.
3.7?
Yuh
Which
The Russian premium ones everyone hates because they're pay to win
The kv1 with added armor
T34
Yeah it's pretty fun
Not fun for the enemy team
I got it because it was cheap and it gave me 15 days of premium
But you know what else is annoying?
What
I wanna grind the Chinese tree
They always camp, ALLLLWWWWWAYS
I wanna grind many trees
It's them Chinese players bro
True
You played any air yet?
That's my main mode
But then tanks caught my eye
As a chinese tank enjoyer, your comment Will be classified as an act of terrorism to great china reputation
Tanks are sick asf
Paper fake tanks
Lmao it actually used to be worse
It used to be 70k 50k
Everyone complained and they nerfed it
70K SILVER LIONS FOR A KILL?
Ohh
Repairs arent my problem rn
But im getting poor rn
65k sl
Blew it all on tanks
Oh buddy
Didnt save em up
nah there’s supply
💔
I used to have like 8 mil
I just need 100k of that and all my problems are solved
i’ve got the hubs in bryansk and orel
This is the method okay
Get premium
A premium plane you like and are good at
And just play that for a day or less
You'll get HELLA SL
One plane I've used has gotten me like 8 mil SL alone atp
Theres a problem though.
The British cannon stang
Im ass at planes
Hey
