Might just be me but I found roman history extremely boring
It just seems like the same 5 things happening all the time for hundreds of years

Its interesting to note that two major Roman splinter states broke off from the empire during the crisis
The Gallic and Palmayrne Empire

Soviets are great for learning defense

defence is also a crucial skill

It isn’t hard it’s just spam light cruisers and meat shield destroyers, and Carriers

destroyers and light cruisers

destroyers and light cruisers
crystal marsh
basically the meatshield of your flotilla
willow plume
they protect your capital ships
sonic sand
got yall on some hivemind shit
crystal marsh
do carriers count as capitals?
sudden thistle

which are heavy cruisers, battleships and battlecruisers, and carriers
What's the difference between heavy cruiser and battlecruiser

I literally cannot afford to put more than like 5 or 7 factories on planes until mid WW2
crystal marsh
so your subs can easier detect ships/convoys to raid
willow plume
a good airforce is very expensive
u need a lot of factories
but cas is so worth it
crystal marsh
paradox needs to make bombers worth it
willow plume
like tactical and strategic bombers?
crystal marsh
the fighter-cas meta has literally consumed all other aircraft
crystal marsh
like tactical and strategic bombers?
yeah
zenith charm
i think japan is done
orchid lily
i think japan is done
😭
zenith charm
but NOBODY uses tacticals
only time i use tacs is as germany cuz i use the starting ones for cas even tho they all die the first year if im still at war by then
crystal marsh
in the first days of by blood alone it seemed like bombers would be the new meta
but apparently cas was better

crystal marsh
it can produce crazy soft attack, but only with the right doctrine
its especially op in china, where soft attack is a large player
sudden thistle
gdp is better anyways imo
pliant sentinel
arty bat is trash
sudden thistle
its especially op in china, where soft attack is a large player
yeah
willow plume
its especially op in china, where soft attack is a large player
can u explain?
crystal marsh

theyre using superior firepower

its better early one like that
crystal marsh
3/4 of their boosts go to artillery
pliant sentinel
and +30 soft atack

chinese units are by default only armed with rifles

so arty gives so attack but kills org?
pliant sentinel
im curious to hear your counter argument
arty batt is trash
heavy vigil

Sfp actually runs line artillery worse than any other doctrine
crystal marsh
so arty gives so attack but kills org?
yeah
crystal marsh
Sfp actually runs line artillery worse than any other doctrine
it does?
heavy vigil
literally sfp is centered around artillery
Yes but it doesnt
heavy vigil
it does?
Mass mob has reduced width making it more viable, and also more hp
Gbp just gives it more stats when attacking so the crits of line artillery are somewhat ok
indigo violet
Mass mob left side or right side? Which is better?
heavy vigil
Sfp only is better than the support side if you have NINE (9) or more line artillery pieces per division
And is just better with smaller units, with a lot of support batallions
Line artillery is 3 width and rapidly makes your division very large
Also the first 10% soft attack node does NOT apply to line artillery if you hover over it and read it
pliant sentinel
Mass mob left side or right side? Which is better?
right

What other support companies should I have other than artillery?

pliant sentinel

What other support companies should I have other than artillery?
Something like this is good for SFP

300 SOFT ATTACK??
it is with all technologies arty
heavy vigil

You should have it if you have it available

Something like this is good for SFP

support Anti Tank is literally only 12 arty guns, much cheaper than 20? (I think thats the size of a regular tank batallion) tanks
pliant sentinel
ask this dude
3.65
bro
it is piercing with tank destroyer light
and no
with support anti-tank
cost 1 antitank is 4
@zinc light ??
zinc light
Tank Destroyers require 30 light tanks per batallion, so thats a cost of 109.5 prod
support anti tank requires 24 units, so thats 96 prod
also the 3.65 you mentioned is CONVERSION cost, not new production cost. that's the one on the left, so 4.93, which makes it even more expensive
pliant sentinel
also the 3.65 you mentioned is CONVERSION cost, not new production cost. that's ...
no
3.65 itsn`t conversion bro
4.93 it is conversion

I was curious on what i could do to help them get more supplies in the tiles they’re on, put the motorization (i think that’s what it’s called) to like level 3 on the hub closest to them and on all the armies

Offensive Army HQ

- Armee Mobile (Every Mechanized, horse, and tank division Degaulle can gather, suited for armored breakthroughs)
Defensive Army HQ - Alpins (defends the italian border)
- Maginot (13 divisions covering the maginot from metz to switzerland)
- Armee Africque (African/Levantine Armies)

real talk it makes no sense a nation like luxembourg can hypothetically store 1 million guns, in a future update they should add warehouse buildings that allow you to store more weapons, also making you really think about where to retreat to ensure your warehouses wont be invaded and the guns seized by the enemy. similar to the scorched earth policy, it would also be cool to add an 'evacuate equipment' state choice that relocates all equipment stored in that state to one of your choosing
