[flat gazelle]

i let them push me a bit so they lose supply

[barren crow]

[mellow spire]

I fought 2 wars: Kills Fascist war and Kill soviets war XD

[mellow spire]

[barren crow]

[flat gazelle]

[mellow spire]

Choose this

[plucky girder]

[mellow spire]

[plucky girder]

[barren crow]

i lost all my army

[plucky girder]

bro

you cannot fumble a war against people fighting with literal sticks

and ww1 guns

[barren crow]

imma play as germany this time

[flat gazelle]

i reccomend watching an yt tutorial

[daring tundra]

My man is not going places

How did you manage to lose against Ethiopia?

[finite plume]

Bruh I have so little done in the world as a whole 🥀

I LOVE MODDING SO MUCH!

[tiny iris]

Iceland can not build a good navy

It can not

By 1940 I had produced a total of 12 ships then sunk in the first battle

[tired crypt]

bro first time i played i beat ethiopia albeit in 1937

[blazing belfry]

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cod_Wars

[devout trench]

Iceland on top

[flat gazelle]

you guys think this is overkill?

[devout trench]

Nah

[flat gazelle]

this is gonna take soooo long

its 1944 already

and i have 2 more special projects to do after this one

[safe wing]

Tsar Bomb?

[flat gazelle]

yeah

[safe wing]

Not playing hoi4 atm but I could tell by the names of the scientists

[barren crow]

i conquered my first territory

austria as germany

[safe wing]

Playing Fall of the Republic mod for Empire at war btw

As the Confederacy of Independent Systems

[flat gazelle]

i dont even know what to do now

[safe wing]

Why are you fighting Japan?

[flat gazelle]

poland joined their faction lmao

[icy crescent]

Open fridge and search for Vodka.

[safe wing]

Poland and Japan were friendly before WWII btw

Not the most far fetched thing

[flat gazelle]

i started spamming supply hubs in siberia now because i think ill just kill them off because theres nothing else to do ngl

[sudden grotto]

Life without modding, isnt a Life worth living

[flat gazelle]

ik that

im polish

[safe wing]

Cool Poland was one of my faves in Total War medieval II

arguably the best calvary in Eastern Europe

Alongside Hungary

While fun its super innacurate

But thats probably due to hardware limitations

And the fact the now defunt CA Australia had to rush some things

Still one of the best Total Wars

[flat gazelle]

what even is this game lmfao, there's 3 frances now

free france and vichy are both in the axis

[fair horizon]

chat how do i go about killing off china in rt56?

[flat gazelle]

1944 and the civil war is still going

[cerulean anvil]

Oh my god napolean is dead

[brittle cypress]

lol

[brittle cypress]

based

[flat gazelle]

fighting in this terrain and supply is peak gameplay

[cedar lance]

hello all yalls

[sharp sierra]

it would prfobably be faster to just go through the southern part of the world and naval invade everywhere

[flat gazelle]

im hoping the us eventually naval invades them ngl

i can also do it myself once i push them out of the continent

[quiet vessel]

gng i have no dlcs what should i play

wat country

im lowk bored

[flat gazelle]

im crying we actually have supply

[fair horizon]

2 more tiles says hello

[flat gazelle]

maybe because the entire russian economy is focused on building supply hubs railways and infrastructure

450 civs putting in the work

forgot to press the button earlier

[tired crypt]

i think you have bigger things to worry about

[sharp sierra]

thats what hes dealing with

[flat gazelle]

genuinely 0 problem with japan

i ignored them knowingly

and now we're pushing them easily

also the axis is so close to finally getting capped

[tired crypt]

the swedish border gore

[flat gazelle]

idk what youre talking about

rightfully spanish territory

[tired crypt]

so.. two monarchists and one communist in the BCA

nice

[flat gazelle]

yeah

and its also led by me

[icy crescent]

I mean, if UK is communist, they aren't really that royal anymore.

[flat gazelle]

not that british huh

[flat gazelle]

he meant spain

[icy crescent]

Pan-Slavic Union is a monarchy?

[tired crypt]

a faction as an alternative to following moscow is led by moscow..

i love hoi4

[flat gazelle]

avg ahistorical game

[tired crypt]

true

once had the mughals lead the 4th international

[flat gazelle]

how about this

there's 3 italy;s

and they're leeding a greek faction

also whatever this is

[tired crypt]

where’s the 3rd

[flat gazelle]

lets goo

another 2 years

[ruby flame]

what a silly language

[flat gazelle]

FINALLY

the us did something

[cursive oxide]

Not to me

[flat gazelle]

also finally the axis capped

[cursive oxide]

W

Aslo why do my subs have no weapons?

I also can't give then weapons

[sharp sierra]

huh

what do you mean

[flat gazelle]

maybe you dont have the tech researched

[vapid phoenix]

h

[flat gazelle]

the border gore aint even that bad honestly

and the axis survived

lmfao

there's 96 people living in vichy france

[paper echo]

the government and their family

[flat gazelle]

only 200 years left

couldnt imagine trying this on a weaker pc

[fair horizon]

only 3 tanks? smh

[unique crag]

im literally doing mass murder

[loud shuttle]

having supplies in iraq is crazy

[tired crypt]

what the us did to iraqis but in reverse

[deft mulch]

god why did they remove Trotskyist from allowtraits

god forbid I want more than 9 generals

[flat gazelle]

not enough air

[deft mulch]

like yeah hate me for not using Ironman but still

[flat gazelle]

deathstacking 25 divs on a tile in kyrgyzstan

only in hoi4

[deft mulch]

No supplies in Kyrgyzstan

😢

[cursive oxide]

That's the hole Jap army

[heavy vigil]

Not using ironman is good but you should use cheats to test/after making a savegame of your legit game

[deft mulch]

Build that supply hub in Dushanbe buddy

[deft mulch]

I only used the allowtraits thing to get a bit more generals after the Soviet civil war but I can’t do that now

Cuz for some reason they removed it

[flat gazelle]

hirohito mannn

i dont think you're winning this

[heavy vigil]

You need to add command power to recruit more

Allowtraits just allows you to add traits

Gain_xp levels them up

[cursive oxide]

Na he will

[deft mulch]

god

I’m not talking about Tonga

that

You could give the Soviet generals like Zhukov a trait that makes them join your side (right opposition, left opposition or tsarists) in the civil war

[heavy vigil]

Ah idk if thats ever been a thing but you cant do that yeah

[deft mulch]

It was

They removed it in some update

May have been the Nordic dlc

[candid forge]

It's 1914 all over again

[deft mulch]

arms against thrrany or whatever

[cursive oxide]

How not tho get killed by the Germans as the Dutch?

[candid forge]

Don't be Dutch

[cursive oxide]

Irl or in game

[candid forge]

or build forts at Amsterdam, The Hague and port above Amsterdam

And you're good

Don't forget Anti-Air

[deft mulch]

Build forts

[fair horizon]

forts when 2000 cas is dumping bombs on your head:

[cursive oxide]

I had max forts and 150 divs

[candid forge]

Or maybe build at Rotterdam instead of The Hague if you want to

[candid forge]

Then why bothers asking?

[candid forge]

Then ignore CAS and it can't do anything to you!

[deft mulch]

How the hell did you get 150 divisions as the Netherlands

[candid forge]

Dutch East Indies?

[deft mulch]

Oh fair point

[candid forge]

But still, how 150 divs with DEI

[fair horizon]

cas doesnt care about forts

[candid forge]

fr

[deft mulch]

Is AI cas really that good

[heavy vigil]

People care about forts?

[fair horizon]

germany's usually is

[fair horizon]

i mean i guess infantry gets the negatives

[heavy vigil]

Nothing you can mess up with a CAS design lol

[candid forge]

Anyways, Germany can't do factions part lol

[heavy vigil]

Tbh you dont need forts if you roach hard enough

Mass mob 7/0s

[fair horizon]

imo forts are almost never worth it because its not only a waste of IC but you were planning on losing anyways

kinda like wearing clothes in zomboid

[candid forge]

Hm I'm thinking,

If I'm faction leaders and make civil war happen, when they called another faction members and I quickly end the war. Will I capitulated the entire faction?

Hmmm.

[heavy vigil]

The main issue is that its a lot of IC that can be negated relatively easily

And its only for 1 tile each

Like if the tile gets pushed itll work against you

And you have less mils/output

[fair horizon]

yeah also that, usually i like them if i play sweden because you plop them near denmark and boom no invasion from the south

but liek if you have more than 1 direction you can be attacked from? worthless

[candid forge]

Ah yes, Triple Alliance

Non-Align, Communist, Fascist

[heavy vigil]

Do they have russia too?

[candid forge]

noo

[flat gazelle]

god this game runs so slow now

[meager valley]

Does it? Haven’t noticed

[flat gazelle]

im talking about my run

[meager valley]

I was just in a game where Russia joined the central powers

[flat gazelle]

1945 and a thousand countries existing

[meager valley]

Oh yeah

[flat gazelle]

this is the main reason probably

[candid forge]

Nice

[meager valley]

Was gonna say if Africa Balkanizes it gets bad

Wonder how the African Union will function with the faction rework

[sharp sierra]

theres bout to be a lot of broken shit huh

[red robin]

is there a mod for hoi4 that works like the timelapse mechanic in eu4 where i can see my own gameplay timelapsed?

[azure palm]

how has your game not crashed yet?

[cursive oxide]

IDK

Mabye just record it and speed it up

[flat gazelle]

no clue

but its slow af

[sudden grotto]

If your game crashes tò that there Is either a prob with yo pc or the game

[cursive oxide]

My pc dose that

Don't have a graphics card in it

[sudden grotto]

After fragment africa?

[cursive oxide]

( it's the family pc)

[sudden grotto]

Dude my old ass PC doesnt do that

How can yours

[cursive oxide]

Not always some times

It crashed 2 times to day trying to open the game

[sudden grotto]

Dawg, if my weak ass PC lasts till 1947 with nukes everywhere and puppets in every releasable, i dunno how cant yours

[sudden grotto]

💀

[finite plume]

Prob got more VP's than France

[sudden grotto]

More

[finite plume]

Nein

[sudden grotto]

Make more provinces, add more VPs.

[finite plume]

Make em yer' self

[sudden grotto]

Even Villages shall have their own vp

[sudden grotto]

Nein

[deft mulch]

my old pc ran slow on 1936 low settings lol

[finite plume]

Mare Rouge is a village

[sudden grotto]

Mine too

It took me 6 days tò reach 1947

[deft mulch]

I got a 4070 super and Ryzen 7 7700 now

[sudden grotto]

Dayum

[deft mulch]

and thank god for that

[sudden grotto]

Lucky you

Ig

[deft mulch]

Meh

I paid for it so

[sudden thistle]

Why

[finite plume]

Idk have you looked at France

[sudden grotto]

Well i think everyone does that either with daddy's Money or your own

[finite plume]

So Sparse in VP's

[sudden grotto]

Sick graphic map

[sudden thistle]

Ewwwww, Fr*nce

[finite plume]

Thanks I just mix and matched it lol

[daring totem]

Isnt that magna europa?

[sudden grotto]

Nope

Magna has way more VPs

[flat gazelle]

930 days left of the run 🔥

[sudden grotto]

And bigger map

[flat gazelle]

just kill me

[sudden grotto]

Tsar bomb achivement?

[finite plume]

Plus idt Magna Europa would focus on Hispaniola so much

[sudden grotto]

Fact

[flat gazelle]

yeah

worst type of achievements in this game

0 skill needed

only mental insanity

[sudden thistle]

I need magna Europa but the entire world

[meager valley]

Kinda cool tbh

[sudden grotto]

Dayum.

[sudden thistle]

I would like pay for a bigger hoi4 map

[sudden grotto]

The amount of work in it

[finite plume]

I think there used to be a mod like that but it's outdated

[sudden thistle]

Exactly

[meager valley]

Thermonuclear ain’t even hard wdym

[sudden thistle]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-patrick-evil-smile-gif-13859406

[prime lintel]

Having the world biggest navy despite only building 28 subs

[finite plume]

Also provinces can't go over 21k total

[meager valley]

For me I just want more states

[terse cradle]

I got a hoi4 ad on twitter

[sudden grotto]

Noice

[finite plume]

Cause of the silly little ✨ Engine ✨

[meager valley]

Why what happens

[finite plume]

Can't handle it, interger overflow

[meager valley]

Angory

[meager valley]

Ngl this trailer felt weak next to GDR and NSB’s

Was visually appealing though

[finite plume]

I think GOE just absolutely curbstomped hype lmao

[prime lintel]

Is this the nation of C. U. X. !?

[meager valley]

Nah I mean GDR’s trailer was really cool

[sudden grotto]

What would be a Better engine instead of Clausewitz?

[meager valley]

Focused on one country, one story. This trailer lacked the perspective that those two trailers had

[finite plume]

But after GOE people prob expect more broken releases

[finite plume]

🤷‍♂️

They just need to improve it

[meager valley]

For sure

[finite plume]

Like Source 2

[meager valley]

Maybe an engine that uses more than one core 😭

[finite plume]

Imagine if mods like MD ran at 60-120 FPS

[meager valley]

Imagine if mods like MD were remotely fun

The economic system in that is abysmal

[finite plume]

TNO:

[meager valley]

Loved MD in early days of HOI4

[finite plume]

Compared to TNO, MD's system is Child's play

[meager valley]

Not saying it’s difficult. Just bad

[finite plume]

Issue is MD has so little spending options

[sudden grotto]

Ryzen threaddripper pro 9995wx: allow me to introduce myself

[finite plume]

Once you break out of debt and get a good economy there's really nothing to spend it on except bills

Satellites? It's only like $0.01B which is so negligible for the time they get researched

[meager valley]

MD should just be its own game tbh

[patent thistle]

basically, everything i bought is meant to be shit or okay cause it was cheap and the kyiv is build by me

[sudden grotto]

( 96 cores cpu )

[flat gazelle]

accidentaly created absolute border gore in china

[meager valley]

Anastasia >

[patent thistle]

nah wojtek >

[meager valley]

Wait till you see the next patch

[finite plume]

Also the new patch snapshots worry me

[patent thistle]

atleast its historical

[meager valley]

Wdym

[finite plume]

The VP's look unchanged

[flat gazelle]

asia looks beautiful

[finite plume]

Which may mean we still get 3 vp only manchuria

[sudden grotto]

Noice

[meager valley]

Atleast state lines differ

[finite plume]

But like

[sudden thistle]

Show

[finite plume]

30M people 🥀

[sudden grotto]

Rookie numbers for a china warlord

[sudden thistle]

NOOOO NOT MORE

[finite plume]

Compared to what I did out of boredom bruh

It's not that hard to just

[meager valley]

You wouldn’t Shan a dong…

[finite plume]

assign value and name

[meager valley]

You’d think

[flat gazelle]

https://tenor.com/view/omniman-gif-26206182

[sudden thistle]

Zoom in more to see more vp’s? (I hope)

[meager valley]

It’s possible it’ll get something

To call Manchuria a warlord hurts

[finite plume]

How much VP's is Qingdao again

It's 5 just checked

But like cmon

[sudden thistle]

I am going to pray

[meager valley]

Wait till your scientist quits

[finite plume]

Done gonna get purged

Anti-Monarchist sympathies

[meager valley]

Fellas what if we set off a nuke using another nuke

(3 years research)

[finite plume]

I don't think that's possible

Since nukes require certain systems and timers

[meager valley]

That’s effectively what a thermonuclear bomb is

Nuclear reaction initiating a nuclear reaction

[flat gazelle]

?

[sudden grotto]

I think an Atomic One would Just detonate both at the same time?

[meager valley]

GG

[finite plume]

So is a Thermo-Thermonuclear bomb a nuke initiating a nuke which initiates another nuke

[sudden grotto]

Endless civil war

[meager valley]

Nukeception

Nuke cubed

[finite plume]

On a side note

[pallid granite]

a nuke would be more likely to just destroy another nuke since the energy is distributed differently

[finite plume]

China's VP's are just so depressing

[meager valley]

No idea what I’m looking at

[sudden grotto]

Fight as Japan take 200 tiles tò reach the next vp

[meager valley]

Feels like I’m looking at some loading screen for assassins creed

[finite plume]

The brighter a province the more victory points it has

[finite plume]

And also

VP's equal supply

So less VP's means worse supply

[sudden grotto]

The beautiful void

[sudden grotto]

Lovely

Irl experience

[sudden thistle]

Why can’t the ocean be another colour 😭

[finite plume]

Like look at the supply gain from just an actually detailed state

IMAGINE CHINA LIKE THIS

ONLY MAN CAN DREAM

[meager valley]

For real

That illustration hurts to look at I’m afraid to say

Crispy pic ik but China monument 😮‍💨

[sudden grotto]

Imagine nuking it

[sudden thistle]

Great Wall of greater Albania

[meager valley]

Hopefully it’ll be better

[meager valley]

I don’t have to imagine, I will

Paradox said they’re adding more Naval special projects

[flat gazelle]

pleaseee

just let me go

[frank igloo]

hey dude man

[safe wing]

Curious what those would be

I can only think of two at the top of my head

The I-400 submarine class and Kaiten

[heavy vigil]

State issue with one of your mods

Im pretty sure that isnt a vanilla state

[digital bison]

lemme check

[heavy vigil]

Because some events like pakistan breaking free give them states

[dire oyster]

put this sexy man as leader of lichtenstein

[cursive oxide]

Vatican world conquest

[vapid oasis]

did some gameplay as historical mexico lately, and dear god does it have potential. At one point I had a catholic state but by then the instiutional democracy (PRI focus) had given me enough stability to hold off the nation exploding long enough to get state schools

[dire oyster]

papal statez

[vapid oasis]

four research slots that can be gained depending on the path you choose, later war goals to gobble up central america, and so much alt-history potential

[cursive oxide]

Sealand 4 Manpower

[dire oyster]

man kuwait has so much potential for a focus tree

[vapid oasis]

really if you play the cristero system well enough, you can barely get your ideal government focus and get the stability to hold off civil war

[warped flint]

Yeah

they have a very good claim on the world

they should own it

trust

[dire oyster]

nah im being fr tho

[wanton whale]

Combat Width - The whole frontline

[dire oyster]

i tried to do a mod abt it

but im too stupid to think of any content

[autumn fern]

bruh ist that normal?

[wanton whale]

Focus - Become the British Empire - Diplomatically annexes the British Empire

[autumn fern]

my defence

[wanton whale]

That's average

[autumn fern]

Fr??

[wanton whale]

Yes

I once had over 2,000 defence value

[autumn fern]

And im Lucky that i survived till 1941 with belgium

[dire oyster]

Posted this clip a few times but I will never stop flexing the power of B I K E

[dire oyster]

i dont wanna even ask about the models

[wanton whale]

Yea don't

[dire oyster]

btw

navy is

is

easy

like

[wanton whale]

I know 😭

[dire oyster]

just spam 1000 guns on it

[wanton whale]

It's the easiest thing to understand ever

[dire oyster]

and get screens

[warped flint]

I think this is probably the least evil tno path i have played

[wanton whale]

I understood navy before I understood airforce

[wanton whale]

S i b e r i a

[dire oyster]

i played

the alpha version of hoi4

with no fuel

no supply

that is how i understood navy

[dire oyster]

800 hours of no dlc and alpha

really takes a toll on you

then i finally got hoi4 with dlcs

i had to restart my brain and re-learn everything

10/10 experience

would crack it again

[warped flint]

Of course france manages to keep losing

[sudden grotto]

No modern politicians allowed ( Just saying because i dont wanna you to get warned )

[dire oyster]

its meme..

💀

[meager valley]

Memes are one of the main ways to push political ideas in 2025 <@&846894118219022336>

[flat gazelle]

bro how is this political

[meager valley]

It’s not “just a meme” anymore lol

[meager valley]

Z?

[small merlin]

Hello guys

I just bought hoi4 on sales

How long will it take me to get the basics

[meager valley]

Z is a Russian symbol in support for the invasion of Ukraine. Used on military vehicles etc

[dire oyster]

its just making fun of the thing hes doing with his hands

[small merlin]

I heard it takes 500 hours

[flat gazelle]

mb then

didnt know that

[meager valley]

Without dlc, 20 hours. With dlc, 200+

[small merlin]

Damn dlc is that big of a difference?

[dire oyster]

not that political

[dire oyster]

yes

[small merlin]

Is it worth buying

[dense citrus]

peak borders 🔥🔥

[dire oyster]

no/yes

[meager valley]

If you google it, it’s pretty cringe to post on here tbh

[dire oyster]

zigmas

[meager valley]

Builds secret tunnel to connect

[warped flint]

You can get all of the dlcs for 8 dollars a month to see if you like them

and then just buy the ones you want

[dire oyster]

ive had that dlc subscription for years

[sudden grotto]

Still against rule

[dire oyster]

i probably could have bought them

with that money

[sudden grotto]

Because its ze Z guy?

[warped flint]

Yeah thats i am doing for now. I plan on buying them on my next birthday

cause now its starting to approach where i might as well just buy em

[small merlin]

Wow I heard without dlc it's kinda plain

Ima just master the basics for now

I can't even find the buttons XD

[sudden grotto]

You Just get the priamry dlc nations and majors historical focus tree

[warped flint]

It feels like that once you try the dlcs

[small merlin]

I'm afraid I might end up spending thousands of hours on this game

[dense citrus]

hoi4 is so bad without the dlcs that add features

[meager valley]

Wild people don’t know about that

[warped flint]

Also i reccomand playing like italy or germany at first

[dense citrus]

no tank designer, no plane designer

[small merlin]

Well the dlcs are over hundreds

[warped flint]

Italy to practice just the war in ethiopia

[meager valley]

Or just Els Salvador

And form Centroamerica

[sudden grotto]

Zulu people still doesnt know what diesel is

[small merlin]

With 1000 hours I can master Spanish

[sudden grotto]

Wasnt It 600?

The amount of hours to become fluent

[meager valley]

I mean it’s crazy that on a HOI4 discord there’s someone trying to act like a Z meme is innocent

[small merlin]

Yeah but if u wanna become native level 1000

600 only for fluent but non native

[sudden grotto]

simply hoi4

[small merlin]

I really like the game so far

[meager valley]

Fr

[sudden grotto]

Oh you mean some stutters?

Like

[small merlin]

Yes being fluent doesn't mean u can fully think in another language

[sudden grotto]

Ye Ye i get It what you mean

[small merlin]

The average hoi4 veteran I have talked to so far has more than 2000 hours

[meager valley]

Do people start to think in other languages?

[strange bronze]

https://tenor.com/view/macedonia-gif-842404463639677153

[small merlin]

My friend learned in 400. Wouldn’t say he was perfect at everything

[small merlin]

Goood

[meager valley]

Alright, but the invasion of Ukraine isn’t. Nor is the Z symbol

[small merlin]

[meager valley]

[small merlin]

I'm so intrigued by the amount of creativity

[dense citrus]

[small merlin]

Is there a scenario where Israel takes over the world

I really wanna play that

[dire oyster]

[sudden grotto]

Latvian riflemen built different

Blitzkrieg on foot

[meager valley]

[sudden grotto]

Hollon, they are pushing artillery by foot, so they are even slower

Latvian based moment

[dire oyster]

[sudden grotto]

Potato country

[sudden grotto]

Heresy

[dense citrus]

[meager valley]

People asked for the significance and why you can’t post that

[ripe slate]

Please dont argue with trolls

[sudden grotto]

Average hoi4 player resisting the urge to post something rule breaking

[meager valley]

Z is a far right political symbol my guy.

[dire oyster]

[meager valley]

[dire oyster]

[meager valley]

Shouldn’t be posted on here

[willow plume]

The symbol "z"?

Is that what U guys are discussing?

[strange bronze]

https://tenor.com/view/macedonia-macedonian-average-gigachad-gif-27224963

[meager valley]

It’s what they were positing and acting Naive about

[dense citrus]

that's fair, video game communities are not the places to discuss politics

[meager valley]

This negative discourse is precisely why it isn’t allowed

[small merlin]

True

Oh yeah I forgot this is not for animal crossing

Ofc it's gonna get political

Or Roblox

[willow plume]

Ok they were playing dumb

[meager valley]

Roblox arguably worse ngl 😂

[sudden grotto]

Its a Place of discussing how to do ethnic cleansing

[willow plume]

Wtf

[craggy trail]
