[dense hill]

Something a bit more…elegant

[blissful osprey]

earlier you said you would rather live under A.H than Gorbechev😭

[finite plume]

[blissful osprey]

[hasty owl]

What are you talking about?

[finite plume]

Mmkay

[sudden thistle]

Can u make New Tripoli a victory point (no reason)

[finite plume]

Reworked provinces/states

[dense hill]

North

[finite plume]

North it is then

Ima just start from Panama and work my way up

[dense hill]

😄

[dense hill]

Is it a mod or a project for yourself?

[finite plume]

Personal rn but I do wanna make it public later

[dense hill]

German

[finite plume]

States?

[hasty owl]

Nazi?

[blissful osprey]

gn bro

[blissful osprey]

yeah

[finite plume]

If you meant states then ye here's the Greater Antilles

[blissful osprey]

thats really cool

[hasty owl]

About 7 people live there

[finite plume]

~40M 🥀

[steep rampart]

I’m gonna make 48 of this division

[fickle thicket]

wtf is this

tanks with inf

and no fuel

[tepid crown]

Hoi4 players once again are unable to produce good screenshots

[finite plume]

There's this great thing called motorized

Even better, mechanized

[supple parrot]

Does anyone know how i can turn down my GUI Scale in hoi4?

[steep rampart]

I only have -2000 trucks and I’m only in 39 so mech is a little ways away

[tepid crown]

Should be in game settings

[hasty owl]

Why use light and heavy tanks at the same time in a leg infantry division

[blissful osprey]

are you trolling or are you actually just mentaly incapable?

[finite plume]

Settings > Video > "UI Scaling (Experimental)"

https://tenor.com/view/meme-horrors-beyond-our-comprehension-low-tier-god-mods-banned-gif-8530537273735940092

[tepid crown]

Just ignore the edgy high school teen who just learned about politics

[finite plume]

He joined just today so take it with a grain of salt

[steep rampart]

Tank=good infantry=good together=gooder

[hasty owl]

I don't think I would understand them.

[blissful osprey]

true

[finite plume]

Tank = good
Infantry = good
Together = bad

[supple parrot]

Thanks so much

[hasty owl]

I would use horses with tanks before infantry.

[fickle thicket]

it takes too much fuel as ur units move at 4/km instead of 12 for light tonks

[steep rampart]

But it has support aa which fixes it

[finite plume]

At least make the rage bait believable 😭

[hasty owl]

Every thing should have aa

[steep rampart]

So your saying instead of tanks I should use heavy sp aa

[finite plume]

Yes

In fact use land cruisers

[hasty owl]

No. Put support aa in all your divisions.

[steep rampart]

So… line artillery?

[hasty owl]

Ragebait as clear as day

[finite plume]

Motorized line artillery

More production cost = better

[heavy vigil]

youtube clickbait has made me sad

[finite plume]

Why

[blissful osprey]

true, like the punching babies prank vid

[finite plume]

https://tenor.com/view/it's-time-to-stop-gif-9416155803997449261

[heavy vigil]

theres this guy who was like 'i did the best hoi4 navy as china' and instead of light cruisers or torp 3 destroyers its 1944 subs

im depressed now

[kind needle]

When doing MP does it matter if one player is on Linux and one is on windows?

[heavy vigil]

no

[heavy vigil]

i dont watch those

[blissful osprey]

https://tenor.com/view/michaeljordan-mj-basketball-gif-michael-jordan-no-no-no-no-gif-16220345851539903827

[fickle thicket]

44 base subs??

[heavy vigil]

idk i just skipped forward

[silk walrus]

The cost of putting AA in every division can be put towards building actuual asfs

[hasty owl]

What do you mean by asf?

[silk walrus]

fighters

[hasty owl]

Make both if your not a minor

[fickle thicket]

no air+ no aa= no pushie with ur dih line inf div

[hasty owl]

That sounds terrible

[fickle thicket]

its because it is

[finite plume]

Multiculturalism ah moment

Diabolical question

[hasty owl]

2004?

[finite plume]

Yes, the mod starts in 2000

[hasty owl]

Question

@mods hang this guy publicly

[trail beacon]

"What are your orders, sir?"
"Secure the ocean."
"I'm... not sure what you mean."
"Did I stutter?"

[sonic sand]

The two red areas

[hasty owl]

That's a sad german invasion

[silk walrus]

@hasty owl let's not bring such stuff up

[finite plume]

Now secure the Caspian sea

[trail beacon]

did r56 devs make caspian sea navigable in order to retreat from baku as soviet?

🤔

[finite plume]

If they made the Caspian sea an actual sea then I'd like to see the Grand Kazakh navy

[trail beacon]

iran naval invading baku would be a pretty good meme ngl

[serene token]

I feel like Nicolas Cage would be a Hoi4 player.

[craggy trail]

[tulip thorn]

[dusky burrow]

Does Japan really need to secure the Caspian

[sage plover]

[marsh ravine]

Yes

[tepid crown]

Yes

[lost pike]

[misty fossil]

i love engagement bait

[misty fossil]

mods?

it is what it is

[warped flint]

no

[misty fossil]

there goes your whole run lol

[coarse willow]

did we just nuke 150k kazakh people in our nuclear test

[misty fossil]

why did you crash

[coarse willow]

wtf tno

[warped flint]

It happens rarely but does happen

[warped flint]

Yes

[opal nymph]

Just wait until the Great Trial

[warped flint]

they are sacrifices for the Great Trial

[misty fossil]

average omsk gameplay

[opal nymph]

Anything for revenge?

[misty fossil]

https://tenor.com/view/tno-omsk-black-league-the-great-trial-gif-24456822

[warped flint]

omsk is my favorite nation to play in tno

[opal nymph]

Is this what you wanted?

[coarse willow]

i haven’t been reading the lore n stuff so i forgot im lowk evil apparently

[opal nymph]

This is the path you were playing

[coarse willow]

i have 95% poverty rate WHAT

[opal nymph]

This is the path you went down

Everything for revenge

There is nothing but revenge

You know this

[warped flint]

I remember the event where it talks about the chemical testing with germans

💔

[warped flint]

Everything for the trial

[coarse willow]

the last russian play through i did i was novsibirsk which is like the most humane russian path

[opal nymph]

You could have played a republic, the monarchist, etc.

[coarse willow]

so this feels so different

[warped flint]

Yeah Sablin russias decent to

that guys chill

[opal nymph]

Random question, which is the nice democratic Russia parh in tno

[warped flint]

Novosibrisk

[opal nymph]

Why do i feel like the komi republic isnt the most wholesome

[warped flint]

You can liberate all of Russia and central asia

[opal nymph]

Thx

[coarse willow]

it’s not

novosibirsk is the most humane

[warped flint]

hered a think I sent

a while ago

[coarse willow]

if u read his lore he is genuinely a nice person

shukshin i think

[warped flint]

Yeah

Vasilly Shukshin

[coarse willow]

yeah ty

he is so fun

[opal nymph]

I know Sablin IRL tried to do a new October revolution

That didn't go well

[coarse willow]

prolly most fun hoi4 play through

[opal nymph]

But it inspired the Hunt for the Red October I think

[coarse willow]

u need the 2wrw mod tho obv

[warped flint]

It also feels more challenging

since you cant draft 5 year olds

[opal nymph]

Yeah, I learned actual TNO is lame now

Well, I always found TNO somewhat boring

[warped flint]

How dare you insult tno

[coarse willow]

base tno is boring

[warped flint]

What is your home adress for no reason friend

[opal nymph]

And every time I start as the US, I lose Malaya and rage quit

[warped flint]

imagien playing us

[coarse willow]

only like a few countries are worth playing and even then it’s over by 1968

[sharp sierra]

the new odor

[opal nymph]

I win SAF and it's epic

[coarse willow]

ok u just suck

[opal nymph]

And then I get bored and stop

[opal nymph]

I cant send volunteers

I rush the focus

They died before the focus

I cant control the ai

[warped flint]

Actually ima do TNO

Who should I play as

[coarse willow]

that’s fair

[coarse willow]

goring mod

[opal nymph]

Why did they even remove goring

[coarse willow]

or south africa

[warped flint]

cause it leads to nuclear war to easily i think

which is stupid

[opal nymph]

The funniest thing I ever did as the US was softlock Germany when they still had goring

[warped flint]

also he was the most likely successor

[opal nymph]

Nah, I sent volunteers to the Swiss and Goring got couped

Funniest crap Ive ever seen

[coarse willow]

tno has potential to be the best mod but there’s so little actual playable content it’s sad

[opal nymph]

L for Germany, another W for thr OFN

I always preferred TWR

[coarse willow]

there’s so much potential in all the little minor countries everywhere

[opal nymph]

But that became decision screen simulator

[warped flint]

Eh

[viscid stirrup]

buryatia is

[warped flint]

Twr just feels weird honestly

[warped flint]

no

[split bane]

It is, but I might give it another go when the US update comes out (or maybe when Canada finally gets content... right... I'm def not coping rn)

[warped flint]

there chill

[viscid stirrup]

yes

[opal nymph]

TWR is quite grounded

[warped flint]

but novosibirsk is better

[coarse willow]

fn

[viscid stirrup]

sablins better

[warped flint]

Pretty sure hes communist

[coarse willow]

def repping canada hard

[opal nymph]

Might be onto something

[viscid stirrup]

he is

communism is the most humane ideology gng

[warped flint]

OOHHHH

[coarse willow]

hmmm

[viscid stirrup]

capitalism just lets people rot

[sharp sierra]

zhoran mamdani head ass

[split bane]

True, if you turn off the German Civil War then it becomes an actually cool scenario
(Because if the civil war happens the TA always jump Germany and it isn't as fun afterwards, especially if you're a Russian country)

[coarse willow]

ts is what tno does to people

[opal nymph]

People in power will always exploit.

Doesn't matter the ideology

[viscid stirrup]

zohran mamdani isnt even a communist. at least try to spell his name right

[opal nymph]

Not always

[coarse willow]

any ideology can be humane but how it is used in practice makes the difference

[sharp sierra]

and just being on discord when ur 14

[opal nymph]

I know he is a democratic socialist.

But promising the world can win you elections, but can he do all he says he can

[coarse willow]

true true

[opal nymph]

In America, a country that is individualistic and adverse to taxes

[viscid stirrup]

zohran says he wouldnt make any promises that he wouldnt keep

[opal nymph]

We will see then

[warped flint]

And your gonna trust a

Politicain

[viscid stirrup]

like lowering the price of matcha lattes

[warped flint]

💔

[opal nymph]

Politicians are known for keeping promises

[warped flint]

Very much

[viscid stirrup]

i would rather trust a leftist politician than a rightist

[coarse willow]

we need more shukshins 💔

[warped flint]

They lie just as much

[opal nymph]

And that is fine

[warped flint]

both are shitty imo

[coarse willow]

pick your poison

[opal nymph]

I just dont think anything will happen besides more arguing

Or Cuomo gets elected lmao

Bro is going to put his hands on everything

And get forced to resign again

[sharp sierra]

i thought i saw curtis sliwa getting a big leap after the latest debate

[split bane]

Guys, I don't want to be that guy but... mods are watching 👀

[opal nymph]

Ah shoot

The rule 2 break

[viscid stirrup]

i think leftist politicians are more honest gng. bernie sanders kept almost every promise he made and is insanely consistent

[coarse willow]

shhh

[coarse willow]

can u just

no

[opal nymph]

Ive learned that you cant trust politicians

Idc where they lean

[sharp sierra]

just look at whos funded by what

[opal nymph]

They prioritize power

[warped flint]

I agree

[opal nymph]

What better than promise the world to get elected

[coarse willow]

is this enough men

all divs are 20w

[opal nymph]

Works every time

[opal nymph]

Probably

[viscid stirrup]

elite infantry?

[opal nymph]

Don't you get op stats

[viscid stirrup]

u need to use elite infantry lil vro

[split bane]

Who's in charge of Germany?

[coarse willow]

1 elite 9 regular 😭

[heavy vigil]

thats not true

[coarse willow]

speer

[heavy vigil]

best is torp 3 maybe 4 destroyers

[warped flint]

No

more

more

more

[coarse willow]

im gonna train another army and a half

just for finland

[split bane]

Oh yeah that's gonna be enough, I think Bormann has the toughest army but Speer doesn't really build up an army that much

[coarse willow]

because i need my planning bonus

[warped flint]

I had 6M men when I did the Great Trial last time

[coarse willow]

is that actually possible 😭

well i have like 4 factories on guns because ive been focusing on tanks and planes

[coarse willow]

yeah thats true

[warped flint]

Yeah very

[coarse willow]

im pretty sure speer is the weakest

[warped flint]

I could have gotten more if I wanted

like 10M

[viscid stirrup]

make it 17 elite and your good to go

[coarse willow]

holy shit i just realized how ass my tank division design is

i havent changed it since reigional unification

[warped flint]

Don['t use tanks in tno

36 width elite infantry is insane

I hasd like 1.2k soft attack when I did that

[coarse willow]

too late now 😭

[fickle thicket]

tno reference?

[coarse willow]

i dont have enough guns and ive been making tanks

[warped flint]

Yes

[hasty owl]

Are you talking about base game?

[warped flint]

nah tno

[hasty owl]

Makes more sense

[warped flint]

But its also super good in base game to

[hoary mortar]

hoi

[coarse willow]

im gonna go complete overkill on finland cuz why not

1200 cas and 600 bombing planes

my best tanks and 500k men

[hasty owl]

Seems like a little much

[coarse willow]

[warped flint]

Wait a minute

OH

Whoever conqured west russia before oyu

[coarse willow]

u on some bs

[coarse willow]

i rmb why this happened

i invaded west russia while they were invading finland

so it broke

they were meant to own that country

[hasty owl]

Is TNO not just a nazi killing fantasy?

[coarse willow]

crazy casualty ratio

yeah this sounds humane

[hoary mortar]

oh btw have a good weekend cya

[gusty oracle]

hi

looks like a good game but also looks like player led peace conferences

[lean kindle]

i tried to make the borders look nice and i used a mod to switch provinces to other countries but it does look nice

They wont be needing that

It will buff out

[random snow]

I believe that

[lunar oracle]

one achievement left

red sea drove me to insanity

[copper cobalt]

Did you rush Germany for the race for Germany achievement or did you take out france o.O

[rain loom]

average day in the raj

[lunar oracle]

i remember struggling with that, i believe went down the soviet path to guarantee the allies and took all the focuses that gave buffs against fasicst nations

[copper cobalt]

I'm planning on doing it but Germany keeps losing states to someone else before I get em

Planning on taking Poland then going through puppet Spain to take out France but smth goes wrong everytime

[lunar oracle]

I also did that achievement before the germany rework so if you want to go back a couple betas you can sea lion britian and then you can 1v1 germany

[copper cobalt]

oh

Ig yeah but I love to just do it at the same patch

Which one have you got left

[lunar oracle]

30 mins of hel

saved best for last

[copper cobalt]

Ooo

I cheesed that lol

Puppetted the Czechs and held Krakow and the mountains

Kept cycling through the puppet

[lunar oracle]

I probably will too, especially with the ai rework just not that plausable unless I straight up fight WW2 as exiled poland

[copper cobalt]

Wait it still counts if you cap??

[lunar oracle]

yep, all it requires is the 1939 start date and the 1.8 mil casualties you inflict yourself

[slim nexus]

Hello

[copper cobalt]

Woah could've done it the easy way then

[lunar oracle]

easy but just gonna take till 1946

[copper cobalt]

mhm but it shouldn't cause any performance issues in a 39 start

[opal citrus]

(i got exiled 3 years ago)

[copper cobalt]

Oof

[opal citrus]

is the ai on fen

fent

[lunar oracle]

knowing how well hoi4 optimizied probably still will, usually global division count really hinders game speed

[fallen vigil]

what game is more complicated victoria 3 or hoi4?

[daring tundra]

Hoi isn't really hard

Probably victoria

[copper cobalt]

mhm

finnish shaanxi and finnish taiwan??

i'm so excited for christmas so i can finally justify getting the dlcs

[brave steeple]

they should collapse right

[tulip thorn]

Thats pretty stable

[clear dagger]

pov every north american/european country

[brave steeple]

they somehow didnt ...

[eternal palm]

It has to actually hit -100%

Not just the base value

[brave steeple]

yes

[eternal palm]

And since they're sitting ar -91% they're not collapsing

[brave steeple]

but also i feel like -91% should be where they collapse

eh well

[valid prairie]

any way to see a timelapse of a hoi4 match while ur playing it? preferably an ironman compatible method

[eternal palm]

So do you wanna play it or watch a time-lapse?

Both doesn't work

[valid prairie]

i want to play it and then when im finished go back and watch it

[valid prairie]

alr

[eternal palm]

Then record it?

Get OBS, get Shotcut and then make it a time lapse

Or go ask the billion time-lapse youtubers how they do it

[eternal palm]

I will

[worn junco]

😈

[tulip thorn]

You learn the game by doing nothing but watch Bokoen1 videos on repeat

[eternal palm]

Right mb

[trim pike]

Is this a joke or is there smth the game is coded to do when stab reaches -100%

[trim pike]

Watch some yt tutorials

Play more

Fail and try again

[worn junco]

thanks man

[trim pike]

Or just play mp

[eternal palm]

The game is coded that way

[worn junco]

i am a master at ck3 you know

[trim pike]

Instant civil war?

[tulip thorn]

Im sure mp is the most beginner friendly thing

[eternal palm]

That's the collapse mechanic of mittelafrika

[trim pike]

The proper mp lobby is

[worn junco]

whats mp

[eternal palm]

I mean if Alex the rambler hosts again, it is

[trim pike]

Wait is this a mod

Oh

💀

[tulip thorn]

"Yo can we kick this guy, he isnt doing anything"

[eternal palm]

Nah all the tribes break free so there's a billion new tags and your game crashes

[eternal palm]

YES

[tulip thorn]

He hasnt taken a focus for months

[trim pike]

Trial by fire

[eternal palm]

That's normal though?

[trim pike]

He’ll learn fast

[eternal palm]

Like dafuq are u doing

Don't be afk lol

[tulip thorn]

Not taking a focus for months early game 💔

Unless your france and really need that extra +1 politcal power

[trim pike]

Kinda

[eternal palm]

No I mean kicking a person for doing that

That's normal

Being afk is a valid reason for kick

[tulip thorn]

Yeah I know

That was my point

When havent they had those 2 spirits 💀

[rain loom]

does iraq immediately join the axis once declaring war?

[eternal palm]

Usually not

[rain loom]

ok

[eternal palm]

Unless they're Fascist and you're at war with the Axis

[rain loom]

i need to speedrun the capping of iraq then

[rain loom]

nevermind

[eternal palm]

💀

[rain loom]

im trying to do graveyard of empires achievement

and I really dont want to go to war with the allies

[tulip thorn]

I love going to war with the allies for absolutely no reason

[rain loom]

paradox every time a new dlc drops:

[tulip thorn]

https://tenor.com/view/money-mr-krabs-gif-18326632

[rain loom]

real

[rain loom]

there comes a time in a hoi4 career where you have to go to war with the allies for no reason

[misty fossil]

Can you set russia and germany to join the allies?

[tulip thorn]

The russians can technically join the allies via the triple entente focus, and the Germans can only join if they are in the same war as the allies while also being democratic or non aligned.

[misty fossil]

okay

im trying to do a japan vs the world

or maybe i can do it another way around

as germany

[paper echo]

play ck3 or eu4 ❌
play hoi4 1300 start date mod ✅

[tulip thorn]

Just use allow_diplo

[misty fossil]

i think germany has the most op army bonuses

[tulip thorn]

And declare on everyone

[misty fossil]

mb

[tulip thorn]

Whats the performance like

[eternal palm]

Nah wdym

[paper echo]

its a bit slower than vanilla

[paper echo]

for me it runs like tno

[eternal palm]

15% attack isn't strong

[misty fossil]

second to finland?

[tulip thorn]

Good think its not millennium dawn level 💀

[eternal palm]

Nah Finland is overrated in that regard

[paper echo]

md also runs okish to me

[eternal palm]

Their support companies and generals is what makes them op

[misty fossil]

can you explain

ah

[eternal palm]

Finland just has a lot of green

[tulip thorn]

Lucky

[eternal palm]

But it's not doing muhv

Core stats is a different thing though

Oh and the Fascist path is just broken

[paper echo]

well it doesnt run great but not as slow as other devices

[tulip thorn]

Fascist finland my beloved

[eternal palm]

Germany just has the best combo of everything, stats, MIO, eco, generals, research, air buffs, Navy buffs, fking everything

No country has a perfect combo for everything like Germany does

[misty fossil]

i see then

[tulip thorn]

Germany is like playing creative mode in hoi4

[misty fossil]

germany ragnarok it is

[eternal palm]

Literally

U cannot lose

They made Russia unplayable by making Germany insane

[misty fossil]

im gonna build my fleet to sink the 5000 ship strong allied fleet

gotta give them 200% dockyard boost

[rain loom]

im in 1938 as the raj and its taking so long to become a dominion that one of my states has got 100% compliance

nvm 8 of them do

[valid prairie]

the strat i use in the russian civil war is to not pick a headquarters and just go with whatever starting location it auto rolls for u, is that better than picking chita?

also can i just put all of my weapons up for sale just before the civil war to keep them all?

[eternal palm]

Depends on which civil war

As tsarist Chita is simply best

As Leftist odessa is best

As rightist, just coup, don't do civil war

But not picking anything is the worst thing you can do

Also don't u like need a headquarters to do the focuses 💀

[valid prairie]

some of them yes

[eternal palm]

So not picking one literally locks you out?

[valid prairie]

it bypasses when civil war starts

it can allow u to flip in like 1927 if u play ur cards right

[eternal palm]

Bro these focuses are good 😭

[eternal palm]

You do that anyway????

[valid prairie]

yes i usually have no army left meaning germans kill me

[eternal palm]

What?

Bro what are you doing 😭

[valid prairie]

i hate siberian gameplay

most fo the time the civil war spawns u in like dagestan or smth

if u dont pick chita

and thats easier in my experience

[eternal palm]

....u know ur supposed to like take states before the civil war starts right....

So u have more territory.

[valid prairie]

siberian states yes

[eternal palm]

U can go to the urals

And just snake from there?

[valid prairie]

harder than that, the soviets have a decnt amount of divs

[eternal palm]

Like convert the entire army to 1w aa, then when the war starts then convert your army back into cav and snake

[valid prairie]

do u get all equipment back in enemy stockpile when u win a civil war?

[eternal palm]

If they have any left, yes

[valid prairie]

does that count units or nah?

[sick viper]

sus

[eternal palm]

Nah

Those just get deleted

[sick viper]

dam

[eternal palm]

Why is your detection so low

U would kill more if you had better radar and mission efficiency

[sick viper]

i dont think my planes got enough range for the whole region

[eternal palm]

What's the design

[remote quarry]

biplane vs biplanes

[misty fossil]

what nonaligned germany path/leader should i pick

Victoria

[misty fossil]

i know what kind of man you are.

[eternal palm]

No she's simply the best

Wilhelm is cool too I guess

But he dies in 1941

So he's kinda useless

[fair horizon]

chat im here to remind you that the best doctrines are mobile warfare, battlefield support, and base strike

no i am not biased you all just need to hear the truth

also if you run trade interdiction i dislike you

[quiet vessel]

its called SUPERIOR firepower

[fair horizon]

cringe

superior firepower means nothing if it cant float on the sea

[quiet vessel]

atleast we aren't grand battleplan users

[fair horizon]

we'll be meta someday 😭

[ivory hull]

grand battleplan clears btw

[fair horizon]

shut up nerd

we're racing tanks over here in mobile warfare land

[eternal palm]

Smh bro getting 2/3 wrong

[ivory hull]

youll never understand the wait for planning my boy

[eternal palm]

Staff office planning>>>>>

[eternal palm]

The navy one was right

Air doctrine is a bit more complicated

[misty fossil]

ragebait

[eternal palm]

SD is best for winning air war, BS is best for cas

[ivory hull]

we all know alex the rambler told us that cas is king

[eternal palm]

God bless his soul

[ivory hull]

truly one of the greatest

[fair horizon]

rejecting the truth

[misty fossil]

to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears is the most urgent command of the Party

[fair horizon]

bros already lost 🥀

[ivory hull]

grand battleplan supremacy btw

[eternal palm]

Small tip; if infantry only mass mob might be better

Reinforce rate is kinda big

For sf gbp is still best though

[ivory hull]

true but it doesnt really require any micro skills

[eternal palm]

That's the point?

Making the game as easy as possible?

Why use something that needs more input?

[ivory hull]

the vanilla ai is already too easy

[eternal palm]

Play sheep mod

[ivory hull]

too much meta

have been playing world ablaze recently

[eternal palm]

Then don't go around saying gbp is best when u know its not.

Just cuz u like it better

[ivory hull]

?

against vanilla ai

gbp is the best

[quiet vessel]

why would you make the game harder for yourself

[fair horizon]

wrong

mobile warfare chads rise up

[quiet vessel]

im here to have fun not go through all stages of hell

[eternal palm]

It literally isn't. Mass mob is better

[ivory hull]

i think your the only one

[eternal palm]

Cuz better Tactics and reinforce rate

[quiet vessel]

i do mobile warfare sometimes depends what im going for

[eternal palm]

Gbp is best for tanks

Mass mob is better overall

Since gbp inf is kinda ass and defending with it is harder

[ivory hull]

if you say so

[quiet vessel]

mass mob is if u wanna throw ur men into a shredder

[sudden thistle]

Mobile warfare with sheep’s mod surprisingly isn’t that bad

[eternal palm]

You literally gain manpower from mass mob?

[quiet vessel]

option 5: asymmetric warfare

[eternal palm]

Mw is overhated

Its like fine

[eternal palm]

Man,fk that bs

[ivory hull]

you also gain it from mw, whats the point

[quiet vessel]

option 6: dont pick a doctrine😪

[eternal palm]

Get the best doctrine in the game at first tech and then gain planning bonus and reinforce rate?

Bs

[quiet vessel]

battlefield support is the best air doctrine

[eternal palm]

For cas yes

[fair horizon]

mw is the best because i said so

[eternal palm]

If u need to win air war first sd is better

[quiet vessel]

gbp worst

[eternal palm]

Ragebait successful, disengage

[fair horizon]

dont even know what that is

[quiet vessel]

gbp + mass mob is for brainless battle plan

[sudden thistle]

https://tenor.com/view/jarvis-ragebait-this-guy-iron-man-tony-stark-gif-3966857531535969686

[fair horizon]

ALSO WHY DID YOU NERF MW RT56 GUY?

GIVE ME BACK MY 5% RECRUITABLE

[quiet vessel]

i think it makes sense

[fair horizon]

no

[quiet vessel]

mw is like quality over quantity

[fair horizon]

i mean

its about outmanuvering your enemy

[quiet vessel]

ok

[fair horizon]

anyways i want my recruitable back so i can force like half of australia into my army

trust me mw australia is meta

[patent thistle]

welp germany is done for already

I NAVAL INVADED BRITAN

YIPPEEE

[fervent minnow]

200 divisions all starving to death lmao

why did you use 200

i fear 10 would be enough to bring the actual army in later

[shy bloom]

An update

I just took London

[atomic grove]

using paratroopers is quite risky

but atleast its successful

[shy bloom]

Its cannonfodder

[shy bloom]

Cheap divisions

[atomic grove]

but didnt u paratroop into east anglia and then transported ur divs there?

thats the risky thing
