[gilded pike]

im playing for a year and ive 2500 hours

[slow nova]

damnnnnnnnnn

you have all expansions?

@gilded pike

[marsh ravine]

Thats like 1/4 of the year😭

[gilded pike]

i js hacked them

[marsh ravine]

There's like 8700 hrs in a yr

[chilly holly]

I can made better cost efficiency tanks for mp

[gilded pike]

@slow nova

[slow nova]

in what sense???????

[gilded pike]

nvm

[marsh ravine]

Cost efficient tanks and mp dont work together

U have the ic to max stats

[slow nova]

astra militarum division be like

[marsh ravine]

So u max stats

[chilly holly]

For what

[marsh ravine]

@heavy vigil

[marsh ravine]

Tanks

Don't need signal, should have more mech, dont need spaa

Unless spaa is armour meme

[chilly holly]

4000 soft and 5500 hard with 3500 breakthrough in battle for this template

[chilly holly]

Armour to have shield from infantry +its for USSR who don't make aviation

[marsh ravine]

If u did heavies you would have more stats

[marsh ravine]

Yeh u do 2x mot aa

On sov

[chilly holly]

1.5x cost

[marsh ravine]

So?

Also what is ur obsession with signals

[chilly holly]

150 hard and 300 breakthrough

[marsh ravine]

AND WHY IS IT 42WIDTH

THATS BAD

VERY BAD

[chilly holly]

In mihist mp when i play all terrain 80 width

[marsh ravine]

Then just be 40w?

[chilly holly]

5% debuff for 2 tanks

42 better

[marsh ravine]

U dont need those tanks tho

Just do 2x mot aa

And more mech

[chilly holly]

For what mech

[marsh ravine]

Wait no it would be 40w with just 2 mot aa

I'm dumb

[slow nova]

no it's not

[marsh ravine]

It is

42width js bad

In vanilla

In every scenario

[slow nova]

why? what's the problem

[chilly holly]

Mot aa is don't playable

[marsh ravine]

Too big

[slow nova]

ah

[marsh ravine]

Doesn't exist?

[heavy vigil]

Why did u ping me

[slow nova]

too stron to

[marsh ravine]

Explain tonk

[chilly holly]

Exist but don't need

[slow nova]

is strong

[marsh ravine]

Doesn't matter debuff too big

[heavy vigil]

No

[chilly holly]

You have too generals with 500 slots with trait to debuff CAS

[heavy vigil]

Go away

[chilly holly]

+konev

[marsh ravine]

I'm going to steal ur grapes and apples

[chilly holly]

-10% CAS damage

[chilly holly]

5% debuff

[marsh ravine]

We are talking about vanilla

For that person

[chilly holly]

Ok

[marsh ravine]

Also no reason to take debuff

When you dont need to

[chilly holly]

If only tank in attack it be matter

[slow nova]

someone wants to play with me with the great war redux???????

[chilly holly]

But without infantry in battle with tanks you can't pen enemy

Tanks just die in second

[marsh ravine]

Then u just dont have good enough tanks?

Or you are fighting German vets

[chilly holly]

Its all tanks

No matter what

[marsh ravine]

I mean ghe heavies not being tds

Affects it

[chilly holly]

Germany don't have heavies

[marsh ravine]

@fast slate

Why

[slow nova]

the p1000 ratte???

[fast slate]

idk im sleepy

night night

[chilly holly]

About 80 of this in start of war

[slow nova]

I don't understand russian

[marsh ravine]

800 soft 850 hard

660 break

300 hp

[chilly holly]

Germany building for africa front

So he made tanks from 1936

About 15 in Africa

[craggy trail]

I wouldn’t really know honestly. For a franchise that has been patented in the 1980s, but grew out in the 2010s, a lot of the fandom has matured and moved on to live lives of their own.

[craggy trail]

Eep well!

[chilly holly]

Correct template+tanks

[gilded pike]

btw, dont use heavy tanks ever

[chilly holly]

?

[gilded pike]

just a tip

[marsh ravine]

That's just wrong

This is for mp

[marsh ravine]

Why close support gun

[gilded pike]

i mean like vs bots

dont mean mp

[marsh ravine]

I mean u can still do heavies if u want just meds do the job well and r cheaper

[chilly holly]

This template difficult to pen infantry

[marsh ravine]

Judt do howitzer?

Has more stats

[gilded pike]

yh, js only if u bored or want some challenge

[chilly holly]

In what

[marsh ravine]

Where you have close support gun

Its just better

[chilly holly]

Light tank

You can't put howitzer on it

Its for scouting company

[marsh ravine]

Ohhhh

I thought it was a heavy tank💀

[chilly holly]

This tanks made by canada in mp yesterday

You talk about heavies like this?

[marsh ravine]

Idk why u all go 42w instead of 40w tbh

Why do you all use signals

[dusky burrow]

Actually heavy tanks are fine

[uneven portal]

uhuh small country like mexico

[marsh ravine]

Also they could have so much more hard attack

[marsh ravine]

If they were tank destroyers

[chilly holly]

Canada idk, i use because attack enemy only with tanks+infantry

[dusky burrow]

Much of the cost of MP heavy tank divisions comes from heavy turret + 3 cannons, but in singleplayer you can do medium turret + 3 hmgs

[marsh ravine]

I would attack only with tanks tbh

Have only tanks he in the battle

Be

[gilded pike]

you cant prove me wrong, its the BEST tank template

[marsh ravine]

If u bounce u just need to figure out how to not bounce

[dusky burrow]

boo

[marsh ravine]

That mech number is diabolical

[dusky burrow]

Why are your tanks so expensive

[chilly holly]

In mihist you can't put AT with turret

So heavy at its just more expensive medium AT

[craggy trail]

Signal companies increase reinforce rate as well as coordination, which focuses a division on the weakest enemy division

[chilly holly]

Its not my, canada built it

[uneven portal]

are you insane

[marsh ravine]

Logi could be better

[uneven portal]

that is NOT a tip

[chilly holly]

Saf do literally same tanks too

[marsh ravine]

So could super heavy howitzer

[chilly holly]

And france

[dusky burrow]

no dlcs?

Also your org is really low

[uneven portal]

brother 36w >>> 34w

[marsh ravine]

Cos the mech number is atrocious

[craggy trail]

Logi is a lot more situational if your fighting in low supply

[dusky burrow]

Yeah

Not actually a good templaet

[marsh ravine]

Then id do super heavy howitzer

I dont see reason for signal

[uneven portal]

remove 1 tank and add 2 mech, you'll be if im correct at 36w

[dusky burrow]

For MP you will want logistics

You will saturate supply

[chilly holly]

In russian vanilla community you 1/2 times have Germany with like 5 mech and all heavy to 36 width

[marsh ravine]

BRUH

Thats cooked

[chilly holly]

And it be interwar heavy with 4 guns

[marsh ravine]

@tidal walrus u need to play ts

[tardy marten]

america invite liberia for what?!

[uneven portal]

liberia will carry

[chilly holly]

And some how it can push through 1200 infantry USSR

But lost about 4000 in battle and 20000 from supply

[tardy marten]

hes the backbone of defeating japan and iraq , real

[chilly holly]

No

[dusky burrow]

only 5 mech in division?

[chilly holly]

Its cooked when usa have amphibious tanks for 24000 cost with 5 mech

[chilly holly]

+-

Or 7 mountain infantry

I seen this by france, about 12 divisions

[uneven portal]

cough cough radio

[chilly holly]

Bro on France literally didn't research first radio

For 1942

[chilly holly]

So, how i can made better tanks?

With +- same cost

[tardy marten]

Umm my strat bombs from fresh to veteran basically by bombing enemy civilians

No need training, yeah

[worthy widget]

What minor country would you guys say has the best path and is actually fun to play?

[green moss]

Polish Empire

[chilly holly]

Germany fascist minor sweden

Literally 300 Divisions in 1936

[misty fossil]

false

heavy tanks are goof for the eastern front

good*

you can make heavy TDs if you're playing meta

have fun using mediums against heavy TDs

[misty fossil]

sheep's mod?

[chilly holly]

Canada player, mihist mp mod

[misty fossil]

okay

yeah heavies are better than mediums because of armour, and armour means a lot against enemy tanks

[chilly holly]

Bruh

[misty fossil]

you're the soviets you will have enough ic to make heavies

[chilly holly]

100 armour in medium division

[chilly holly]

You made 40 heavy, ussr made 60 medium because your heavy cost more 1.5x

[misty fossil]

but you can encircle more

i mean

your tanks are better so you're much more likely to succeed at encircling soviet tanks

and 1.5x more mediums arent that much better if they cant pierce your tanks

[chilly holly]

You encircle 5 tanks ussr deploy 10

[chilly holly]

1 medium at>all armour in game

[misty fossil]

and they'd run out of supply anyway

[misty fossil]

then encircle those 10 tanks?

oh they make 20 more? encircle them as well

just make sure you dont run out of supply

[chilly holly]

How

[misty fossil]

wdym how

by flanking them

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4iH1cvHhiQ&pp=ygUQc2hlZXAncyBtb2QgaG9pNA%3D%3D

this guy used heavy TDs as the ussr

[chilly holly]

And have 0 breakthrough

[misty fossil]

however if the soviets are going with 36inf meatwalls then... howitzer medium tanks

[chilly holly]

Because in mod you can't do AT with turret

[misty fossil]

oh idk about what mod ur using then

[chilly holly]

And its with lost about 250 divisions

[misty fossil]

whats their conscription

keep grinding them down

they can only have so much manpower

[chilly holly]

+don't get mobilization

Every town falls +12-48 divisions

[chilly holly]

Its lost Moscow

[misty fossil]

oh yeah 90 mils on guns

[tulip isle]

YESSSS

I WON THE WAR

AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAH

[slim nexus]

Well done slugger

[tulip isle]

Thanks

I'm a newbie and I been for days trying to defeat Ethiopia as Italy, for you guys it sounds ez, but for me it was hard. I did it without tutorial.

[slim nexus]

You mean the Ethiopian war or the world war homeboy?

[tulip isle]

Ethiopian war dexter

[slim nexus]

I hope you learnt a valuable lesson because it's going to get a lot harder

[orchid lily]

Learning about supplies was the biggest reason I was losing Ethiopia in the beginning

[solemn turret]

did you learn about it or not yet?

[orchid lily]

Yeah I did

[solemn turret]

how to fix supply?

[slim nexus]

do you have supply or having trouble getting supply to your frontline?

[solemn turret]

yes i have alot of troubles with supply

[misty fossil]

let your men die

then there will be fewer men to supply

just kidding

[solemn turret]

uh

[misty fossil]

there are 2 ways: upgrade railway network or put logistics company onto your divisions

and make sure ur staying near supply hubs

[solemn turret]

they will restock 💀

[misty fossil]

set supply motorisation to trucks

there you go supply problem solved

[solemn turret]

i will try it soon and see

[misty fossil]

and avoid deep snow or marshes

[solemn turret]

btw what is a good div for attacking and defending?

[misty fossil]

do note for the first tank template you can make do with 9 mechanised and 9 tanks (medium, heavy, modern or its amphibious variants). support comps are super heavy motorised artillery, armoured engineer, hospital, logistics and light armoured recon

the rest are self explanatory

i usually go with 8 marines 8 mountaineers (with both special forces doctrines researched) for 32cw

you can fit 2 32cw but only 1 36cw into a mountain tile

[solemn turret]

is there any normal inf?

[misty fossil]

its an advanced play

oh

there's 35.2cw mass mob infantry (take mass assault right path) if you play as the soviets

make 2 army groups of them

otherwise 18cw 9 inf for defense only (support comps are arty, signal, engineer and logistics)

[solemn turret]

is there any balance one for almost every nation?

[misty fossil]

18cw for defense and 36cw tanks for offense

i only stick to majors so i can have the upper hand

[solemn turret]

what about light?

[misty fossil]

have you tried 1v1ing a WWE fighter?

thats how light tanks fare against late game enemies

[solemn turret]

multiplayer?

[misty fossil]

only good as light armoured recon company

[misty fossil]

i mean this one

its an analogy but i hope you get it

[solemn turret]

so you recommend using medium+ tanks always?

[misty fossil]

yes

always

you have to be flexible though

[solemn turret]

seth

[misty fossil]

for sp mediums are enough

but mp metaslaves run heavy TDs which have insane piercing

we're talking 270+

[solemn turret]

alr ty i will try all of that

[misty fossil]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4iH1cvHhiQ&pp=ygUQc2hlZXAncyBtb2QgaG9pNA%3D%3D

this video explains a lot of meta mechanics and strategies

[solemn turret]

👍

[misty fossil]

GBP left is the best for everything (make sure to have counterspy so all your planning bonus dont get nuked) and MA right is best if you're a minor nation or is running an infantry only build

[tardy marten]

[orchid lily]

i am losing the invasion of britain

what am i doing wrong?

[uneven portal]

brother

ur men

[slim nexus]

besides being sandwiched? with only one port

[uneven portal]

have no food or guns to fight or stay alive with

[orchid lily]

i tried rushing another port and failed

[orchid lily]

yeah i noticed 😭

[uneven portal]

also i doubt getting more ports would help much as the royal navy would probably send a shitton of subs to sink ur convoys

[orchid lily]

i thought about doing a landing in hull

[uneven portal]

but it will help

[orchid lily]

hopefully before the front crumbles

[uneven portal]

wait

so

son

show ur inf template

[orchid lily]

is it maybe a bit expensive to mantain 😭

[tiny iris]

If it talks like a duck, walks like a duck and looks like a duck. Its a duck.

[gilded pike]

[uneven portal]

his airforce probably looks like this

[fiery goblet]

yeah

that

its just

blank

[fiery goblet]

?

[uneven portal]

its good for some

[orchid lily]

What if I made a few divisions with like 6 arty and a bit of inf that I exclusively used to attack

[uneven portal]

keep it 9 but never do 9/1

9 inf will be defensive template

[uneven portal]

no

why use arty

mountain guys

[orchid lily]

Because Italy sucks with tanks and only gets good in like 1939

[uneven portal]

^^

[orchid lily]

What about them?

[uneven portal]

motuanriersr >>>>> inf

mountaineers

are

peak

beacuese they get special forces buffs

[fiery goblet]

what path should i do

also what do i do about this

[woeful matrix]

will the usa atack me if i go to war wit south america ?

[hasty linden]

the purpel?

[fiery goblet]

yeah

[sudden thistle]

Matters

[hasty linden]

just press f4 again

[woeful matrix]

?

[hasty linden]

it should fix it

[sudden thistle]

Who are you

[fiery goblet]

oh yeah

[woeful matrix]

norway

[fiery goblet]

why did it do that

[sudden thistle]

Then yes

[hasty linden]

idk probably just a small bug

happens to me sometimes too

[sudden thistle]

Only American countries can go to war with other american countries

Without Monroe

[woeful matrix]

that sad

[zealous nexus]

found the easiest way to form the eu and afterwards be able to go any ideology you want

[misty fossil]

you can do both bro

[fiery goblet]

whaaaaaaaaaat

[misty fossil]

!????

[safe wing]

using the coat of arms mod that changes the ideolgy emblem

[misty fossil]

are you high

[fiery goblet]

maybe

[hasty linden]

the paths are not mutually exclusive

smh

[safe wing]

each country gets a unique emblem

[orchid lily]

Ok alr my templates suck I kind of know that but

[safe wing]

for their ideolgy

[orchid lily]

What do i do now?

[zealous nexus]

install reichskommissariats + and start as france in 1939, once germany capitulates you they will form belgien-nordfrankreich and niederlande and if they integrate luxemburg it means all required states will be part of the axis and you can take it in the peace conference, from there form the eu, afterwards you get the french tree but completely reset and you can go any ideology you want

[uneven portal]

air

[hasty linden]

send map of europe

[uneven portal]

lots of air

thoundsands

[zealous nexus]

currently trying this

[orchid lily]

Would bringing over new divisions be counterproductive

Cuz of supply issues

[hasty linden]

if you are already loosing in the uk

probably

[safe wing]

[zinc light]

Germany really stole Turkey to prevent the Roman Empire 💔

[orchid lily]

ill work with germany later

now the main issue is britain, free france and russia

[tiny iris]

Hello

[meager valley]

Goated mod

[safe wing]

yes I'm using it ATM

[meager valley]

Realistic and immersive party names and flags too

[orchid lily]

at war with the world btw

[hasty linden]

cool

[safe wing]

that too as well

[meager valley]

Average German game

[orchid lily]

because germany is an idiot that declares war on everyone

[cedar lance]

hello yalls

[orchid lily]

even japan

[snow rain]

is austria a core?

[tiny iris]

igvi8futdf

[slim nexus]

whats good homeboy

[cedar lance]

not much hbu

[tiny iris]

Who's the better HOI4 player. ISP or bitt3rsteel?

[snow rain]

honestly, probably ISP because he did play competitive MP for a while and he knows how to do good divs, he just won't bother

[sonic sand]

Guys. I downloaded a mod that gets rid of mutually exclusive focuses.

[meager valley]

Better at what? SP or MP?

[tiny iris]

sp

[slim nexus]

yeah man its alright for a monday

[cedar lance]

noice me too

[meager valley]

ISP probably better at world conquest but bittersteel pretty OP at disaster saves

[cedar lance]

im going home to estonia to visit aunt with my mom

[slim nexus]

but i like being exclusive

[snow rain]

ISP doesn't use torps on naval and that's probably the only real difference between the two in SP which makes ISP better

[meager valley]

Does he do armor piercing bombs

[snow rain]

does he ? I can't remember seing him use them

he does use heavy bombs which are good

[meager valley]

That’s what I’m asking you 😂

[slim nexus]

stay safe my special estonian

[cedar lance]

thx m8

[sonic sand]

Yes however. Shit gets crazy pretty fast.

[snow rain]

then my guess would be nop, he doesn't. Which is a good thing

but idk if bittersteel use them either

[sonic sand]

Especially nonhistorical

[fiery goblet]

these borders are so ugly

[slim nexus]

might have to look into that homeslice

[sonic sand]

Demand Czechoslovakia

[fiery goblet]

like the entire thing?

[snow rain]

wait did the checz refuse the ultimatum ?

[sonic sand]

And don't play Austria Hungary as Austria

Play it as Hungary

[fiery goblet]

i did it just made me white

[sonic sand]

Ok

[meager valley]

Is Lichtenstein the only Austria that can form the HRE? (Only asking about Austria not Germany)

[fiery goblet]

i didnt even know there was an option for that

[sonic sand]

Its a focus

[fiery goblet]

do u require dlc for it

[sonic sand]

Do you have Götterdämmerung

[snow rain]

you need to cheese it. Deploy tons of 2w (1inf) inf divs until you're out of manpower (don't care if they're not equipped), improve relations with them to max and then do the focus

[sonic sand]

Sometimes?

I can't remember

I don't think so

Its been a while

[fiery goblet]

i dont have ANY dlc so thats why

[snow rain]

you'll basically have a guarantee that they'll accept, either becoming your puppet (unlucky) or that you fully annex and core them (lucky)

[meager valley]

Austria has such a weak early game but cracked late game

[hasty linden]

imagine having dlc´s 🥀

fr fr

[snow rain]

this is no DLC hungary though

[orchid lily]

it's over

[hasty linden]

i only have man the guns bc its free

[meager valley]

Imagine having toontown membership and defeating the big cheese

[snow rain]

why would you not land on a port

[orchid lily]

i did

they took it back

[meager valley]

And technically to another DLC

[coral gorge]

🔥 the real recovering economy

[slim nexus]

aw shucks

[meager valley]

Death or Dishonor also became free and integrated

[uneven portal]

walking the tiger too

[snow rain]

no air support ?

[orchid lily]

they had 1.5k planes

[meager valley]

For like a year then is better than MEFO

[orchid lily]

couldnt beat them

[hasty linden]

oh yeah true

[snow rain]

that's nothing bruh

[coral gorge]

that is -75%

not +75%

[snow rain]

also By blood alone DLC or no By blood alone DLC ?

[meager valley]

And?

[coral gorge]

actually -80% now

[meager valley]

Mine starts at -250% 😮‍💨

[coral gorge]

yours isn't even vanilla then

[slow nova]

it can't be called empire. the game calls it Austria Hugary, how did you get it???

[coral gorge]

well I am actually on mefo path though

[meager valley]

Just do the easy world conquest cheese by 1939

[fiery goblet]

im just that good

[coral gorge]

also

lemme get my role back

what colour is game helper now

[slow nova]

you played austria or hungary??

[coral gorge]

still red?

[safe wing]

you've returned

[fiery goblet]

hungary

[slow nova]

ok

[snow rain]

that's right, why you not helper anymore ?

[meager valley]

What’s funny is the max you can reach is 10% so it gets to a point where additional buffs no longer help

[coral gorge]

because I left the server

[meager valley]

Replaced by Casey

[safe wing]

I'm gonna rejoin your server too because I took a break because I was horrifically stressed out due to IRL reasons

[snow rain]

bruh

[meager valley]

Aka you lost an Empire at War campaign

[safe wing]

not that IRL drama

[safe wing]

welcome back king 👑

[uneven portal]

why do u leave a server when ur stressed and struggling with real life problems

just dont open discord

👍

[safe wing]

fair

[meager valley]

Or just mute its notifications lol

Like you can effectively make it so a server doesn’t exist for you unless you check it

[uneven portal]

75% of the discord servers im in:

[meager valley]

90% I’m in

If it’s active it’s getting muted 😂

[fiery goblet]
