Not even 100hrs in the game and you capped Soviet?
i think soviets are pretty easy to cap
hell it can be done with just some attack orders
Not in the first 100 hours
im sure i did in my first 100
i was a battle plan warrior
i never thought hoi4 was too hard
a new world
belgium, norway, luxembourg, portugal and switzerland stand alone
whats a good mp nation as a beginner?
Germany or ussr ig
alright
honduras
i was thinking netherlands
or liberia
yea maybe
Multiplayer? R u vanilla or nah
And is it hist
whats the best battleship design
China
is it hard?
full anti air
You wanna fight Japan
i see
U learn how to micro in mp etc
With inf at least
Btw go sfp and rush getting rid of army corruption
U never get full doctrine anyways so it dont matter
no
how to play african nations man im nigerian
How
Yes
Build refs for 2yrs on germany it helps u scale
No civilian?
Wha
i amuse myself with funni little infastructure 'projects' by giving all of europe 100% infa
I amuse myself with funni little infrastructure 'unprojects' by giving all of europe scorched earth and deleted factories
does anyone else have all dlc, without owning em
play as the uk and you can release nigeria from your occupied territories
respect
you probably wont be able to do anything unless you tag over to france and release all their african colonies as well
Smh, didnβt read the no step back dev diary from like 4-5 years ago
smh smh
I didn't have the game 4 years ago
my bad bro
I still see Israel on that map
pov: racism
worst of all albania
i will fight for nigeria.
ok that last one is a fair point
you got it king
Idk if ive done this smartly, but heres my army lol
We also remove Azerbaijan and Georgia in Syria, so we make a giant big sea
hopefully ill win like this
idk what Iβm doing but Iβm having fun

u are mustafa from italy./
mustafa jimbobex.
Free trade IF you can afford it
Its the closest to free trade u can be without gutting your production+/construction
so probably not this early on
Free trade is the best in peace time. When at war, Limited exports
If u can afford it at war free trade is still best
damn, ill remember that for next time
It literally just depends on if you can afford it
I kept limited exports while at peace
Just most tje time you cant
You give enemy intel
Literally irrelevant.
Lmao
"Oh no the ai can see what my factories are assigned to" if sp (idk if ai can even react to seeing that), if mp they use spies anyways and see it
Free trade Germany the dream
Also your focus tree
Free trade automatically moved to autarky
Oh no
Like it just doesnt matter as much as you think it does
The ai does not care
who is #2
Hello and good morning
Hru?
What if Iβm #0.5 though?
Doing pretty good. I recently got a promotion in Equestria at War today
Decimal place means ur less than me
Oh nice
Promoted to what?
Community Helper for the mod
Thanks 

I made a grave war error
I produce basically 0 fuel
and now im in WW2
this will be fun
14 hour hoi4 gaming session π
Im back y'all, wsg
yo bro
Also, <@&846894118219022336> will I need to change my Gaza tag to a different one?
yes man i am from israel
i can already feel my back with this statement
Hey, im asking to be polite and not assuming, since it can be seen as supportive but also politically charged
can we all just get along
no
because this is hoi4 not modern politics
the premise of humanity is that we are all divided and hate each other
I hope so
kidding π
I meant on this server
just saying
I much prefer my discord servers to be chill and such
Oh so ur Jewish now? Didn't u defend Christianity like 2 days ago?
Iβm sorry
You don't need to ping moderation for that, Tickets are what that is for.
However I would recommend removing it just here to avoid any argument. Typically if you have to ask if something needs to be removed due to controversy, you probably should
Can we not start this
ethnicity = religion?
primitive
Let's get back onto the topic of HOI4, please.
yes hoi4
No I simply don't like u. Imma not go further than that
Yea lets not go farther on this topic
good idea
lets talk about hoi4 no primitive stuff
Im not sure if the monarchy path is better than the communist one
just for that, you get supply issues AND naval invasions
Thank you, just making sure since the rule doesnt explicitly state it, but I dont wanna get banned with such thin ice i've been given
nooooooooo
either stalin path of monarchist path. Trotsky and the other arent that good to be honest
It's strictly worse π
so do u like playing israel in hoi4 or nahh
I do not give a shit
its better because communism is cringe
stalin path is the strongest communist path industry wise
Theyr that bad?
monarchy is for the lolz and super tsar tank
so sigma man u prob play palestine then
to kraaaaaaaaaaaaash everything
Bro stop pining me, I don't give a shit
honestly I don't play either because both don't have content
Monarchy is cool but like the civil war takes too long
Trotsky is good though? You get pretty insane research bonuses
cavalry does help tho
@eternal palm just be normal like wage and answer questions man what is this anti social tendencies you got going on here
You have to go through a civil war to end up way weaker and I dont see the perks of it to be honest. The Monarchist path you can kinda get a lot of terretory
U can get gun3, Conc and tools 5 in 1940
I guess. Still i dont like playing it
You were asked to stop pinging them, I suggest you do so
I mean it gets rid of the red army modifier early
Welp that's another person blocked
he pinged me three times when i didnt speak to him and you gonna ignore that?
Depends, stalin path is the best for post-ww2 to get to 1947, the Civil wars usually last the same length but with historicak germsny its better to go stalin
agree
Here's a better thing to do, be the bigger person and stop before it gets you or anyone else banned
Ive seen people fight the germans despite being crippled from the civil war but im not that that level of skill
It doesn't. U can't do desecrate measures during a civil war
Stalin Path is the strongest because you don't have to deal with a civil war and can build up normally, tbh
Did you ask them to not ping you? If you did I would appreciate you linking said comment to me
Otherwise let's get back to talking about the game
Chak, you have my condolences for having to deal with this community
Then get that level of skill π₯
I mean if u cheese the Trotsky civil war its way faster since ur much closer to moscow
yeah i agree im gonna be the bigger person even though i am not the bigger
π
Ask Chak, he unbanned me this morning/last night
nah i agree man
Actually, he unbanned me right when I woke up bc my fiance was being a loud doom scroller

chak defused the situation instantly
Its not an issue for me, its my job.
I just want us to get along and enjoy the game
good mod
Noodle
You still have my condolences
π€ whats that supposed to mean
blatant insult
aha, okay then.
Next round of takeout's on you then 
man chak i have condolences too
I feel like monarchy path does have its use since if u ally with the germans u dont have to deal with em anymore
Mlp goes hard, I was watching it last night
Thats how I fell asleep
thoughts on my pfp
Lemme find glasses
Or u can form entente but im pretty sure brittain and france most of the time wont join
You would need to to Equestria at War this morning then
Nah, I've gotta finish making my mod work
They will join the war eventually anyway
Mlp is the best show ever
hey Christa its me Al
Here. Have these videos for your leisure. You might enjoy

On May 18, darkness fell upon Equus. Queen Chrysalis launched an operation to crush Equestria in a few months. Changelings victory seemed clear β until the war took an unexpected turn...
This video is based on Equestria At War mod for the strategy game Hearts of Iron 4, which takes place in the alternate universe of My Little Pony during Worl...
By 1012, the Changeling Empire found itself in a difficult position β they failed to capture Equestria by winter, and the Allies had already assembled a large coalition. But the ruler of the Changeling Empire, Queen Chrysalis, ordered her generals to prepare a new campaign that would turn the tide of war.
This video is based on the Equestria ...
Idek what your pfp looks like, but thats js bc im a blindie
2nd is the Garfield tv show, and 3rd is Dexter
Its Robo Charlie Emily working at Walmart
man i love this schizo mod sm
yes the woman in the pfp is a clanker
Good
Eh i mostly play the monarchist path just for the third rome
but one has been gaslit into being a human
though TBH that plot twist was very last minute and rushed
I know
I hated that place as a kid for some reason
I always wanted it to see Carthago Delenda est'd
I funnily enough never did alt hist Russia except like 3/50 or so runs with them
The hist path is quite fun
I do like it yes but im now sure that to do from 1945
Since the allies are basically much stronger
The Cold War gone hot is also fun
Life is so grand in Our Town
We're always filled with cheer
We never have to look around
To know that we're all here
Just battleplan and carpet nuke Europe
I think he can do that
What if u replace all the inf with mecanized inf
For the cold war
Is it worth the ic
So glad im unbanned here
I can get real help without having to dm mari every 5 minutes with stuff he might not be able to help eith
Well I mean, its bc of politically extremist (NSDAP) imagery
And i argued against why I shldnt censor it fir here
Not doing that again, especially since next time its a permanent ban :3
I got an argument with somebody that escalated fast
Im glad that I regained access to speak after loosing my main
How long was ur previous ban
About 2.5 years
π
Hi Chak


Hello, Al
Chak are you gonna stalk me in here to ensure I dont break rules?
IK you were gonna figure who I was in a brief second
I don't stalk anyone here, its my literal job to manage the server lmao
OH CRAP youre al? Weren't you here back in 2022 or around there?
Jessie. We must stalk
yeah I was I had different account though because I deleted to take a temporary break for my mental health
Yh, you might remember me then
I think I was commander Cody at the time
I remember you vaugely
Idk what my pfp was back then tho, prolly some edgy or alt shi
Jessie, we must start building military factories
You excited for the new navy in 1.17?
it was the default Discord pfp
(I have logs of everything)
cautiously optimistic
but speaking of cooking
Im excited, im alr good at navy (but outside of a large MP game its bloody useless)
pretty much yeah
Merica
I always rebuild the High Seas Fleet as Imperial Germany
Even in mp itβs still pretty useless
Why do I need to build a Bismarck as Germany when I can save my time bt building subs with free docks and just paradrop into london
only on single player
Hochseeflotte is basically useless as germany
Who cares about navy when ur the soviet union ( i end up with 0 navy commanders by the time i get political paranoia removed)
You gotta wait until 1938 to get all the buffs
Navy is not needed in mp aside from supremacy as stopping u getting raided if ur going for like hawaii
As japan
You dont micro your paranoia like its the sino-japanese front?
No π
I just make sure i dont get my best generals purged
Smh
Rahhhhh hi π
Hi
paranoia isn't really important as the Tsar/fascists TBH
hi
Its honestly kinda useless outside of stalinist ussr
Yeah but the civil war cripples u
it does
So no matter what u do ur still kinda cripples at the start
Bc it just starts the Civil war, which means the ussr loses ukraine as the reds, or half their shi as the whites
and they still did Denikin dirty
level 1 with old guard, and inflexible stratgist and poltiically connected
Average NASA higher up circa 1946
he started out with 1500 men when he seized command of the All Volunteer Army ended with up over a 100k in 1919 and he got the closest to Moscow
Yall
Time to procrastinate getting outa bed because my floors are cold
Is it possible to cap the germans before getting lessons of war
How to beat Germany as Sweden?
Yea, ive done it before
I have actually done it by accident as the Tsar before
How
by getting sidetracked with the airforce
My navy lost to Germany first day of war...
From day 1, lock in a half-decent light tank, those will carry you until the T-34 from tankograd or wtvr focus it is

Yh im back in business, how ya doing chem?
Good
Havent seen that pfp in so long
Very recognisable tho
Anyways yea i remember u
italy mare nostrum to op PS: aug 1939
Yh, this pfp is relatively new
Ohhh hes back off of his alt
Unite the uhh Danes and Norwegians
I only started using it like, last year, when I was with my ex before I got eith my current fiance (who I intend to stay with)
Then just either hold the danish islands or push to the river near Hamburg and go afk
Did exactly that and german kills danes and me
Then you have some major skill issue
Which path did u choose for it
Gustav's
Believe it or not i get around 4 tanks by the time i cap the germans π
I focus all my ic to spamming as many inf divisions as possible
Thats fair, maybe go mot/mech if you prefer
I do wanna use tanks but idk how to split my industry so i can have atleast 200 divisions by when the germans invade
Don't have tanks in the Frontline division
You'd want like, a field marshal with infantry, and a general or 2 with tanks (or even less)
A general with only tanks?
Tanks in the Frontline division are js space marines and those are typically banned in mp
Well, tank divisions
I see
Lemme get on my pc and I can help better, so gimme like 5-10 minutes to warm up
Sure
Navy is important as Italy uk Japan Usa in mp and even Germany in some cases
I rlly like playing ussr so i wanna play it as well as i can
Oh thats 100% valid, I can even show you how to micro it once my fiance is off at they classes
ae
Im horrible at micro managing
I do manage to get a few encirclements by doing that but thats rare
The micro is pretty hard for ussr
I usually let the axis push into the ukraine
Since Romania gets it, and Germany needs to own it for eco of conquest
So as long as Romania pushes, the germans screw themselves over
I let em push a lil past the baltics
I almost capped last time I did ussr, because I was sieging Vienna while Romania took the caucuses
I do a fallback line behind rivers while guarding kiev
Yh, is that a game you've done? Ir is this current
Bc ik how to push and win right there
I left it at this
Reverse pskov offensive, push taking the pskov supply hub and push through to the Baltic sea
I dint have a much diff template
I used an 18w one with field hospital engineer aa arti and logitcis company
Nice
You got all DLC? I wouldnt wanna give you advice for smth like BBA if you dont got it
For my third rome run i did a 26 or 28 i forgot widht with 3 arti
I got all the dlcs
Why didn't u hold the river in Latvia?
Idk
It dint matter that much to me
Wsg creep
Since all my civs were way back into siberia
It's kinda important though?
Also, the ussr has a decision to move western factories to the ural
20 civs is a big deal
Pointless decision if you never built anything west of kursk
Bait of a focus
Fair
Yes
Yes
Women in the workforce is also smth you should grab if you dont mind the stability drop
More manpower on the field
Even though USSR should have that already, infact they should have the buffs from that and then a bit more
Since they allowed women into the army during ww2, but before that, women were allowed to work and be partisans in the RCW
Do you have anything in crimea tho?
Idk, maybe future Russia content, all the old nations with DLC's are getting TLC, and it'd be amazing to get one for the comintern
Like industry?
Men, cause they'll go through and take the caucuses, which is your oil
Whats a tlc
Tender love and care
You could also straight block it with your navy
Like what WuW gave Germany, since they alr had content from WTT
Maybe monarchy path should get a bit more love
Like making the civil war easier and faster
Nah, the Civil war is meant to be its own campaign
It's already pretty fast?
You can end it within 3 months
It really ends when you finish eating up any splinter states
I mean compared to other civil wars
If u do it right
Idk the trotsky one is even shorter
3 MONTHS?
Yeah since u js need to rush moscow
German civil war when you accidentally let a fascist swine into a single tile is harder than the 2rvw
Yeah. Convert the entire army to 1w aa. Then snake your territory all the way to vologda and snake to leningrad and Moscow from there
3 months
Yea, cause you can just.. walk into Moscow, stalingrad, and leningrad from partisans and win in about a month or 2
It's as shrimple as that
I did that but it still took me around a year to win the civil war
Didn't snake enough then
Guys is this bad
Doesn't matter mostly
Have you ever played MD?
RUSKIAAAAAA
You have more, and the AI doesnt know about the equipment selection for divs
So if you set it to use no equipment, then youre pretty much set
Oh wow
Yes and I hated it
Still the preparations for the civil war take a while so i think il mostly avoid the monarchy path for now
ye can't blame u π
The content is pretty pointless too
Third rome is pretty cool tho
Like I dont think Russia needs additional cores
And the berlin moscow alliance ig
Thats basically Chechnya youre doing
Pretty pointless when you're allying with the nation that's your main obstacle to expansion?
It's geopolitically useless
Actually you are js checknya
You don't gotta fight a civil war?
U can and do a funny formable
No u wanna do that so u can do imperial federation in 37
Right before cap the brits he declared war on all the dominions and managed to annex all the dominions
Ah, makes sense
Without having to individually retake em
Well it kinda sucks for getting USA
If u do it right u can core the USA too
He took usa in 1937 or 38 π
It sucks forming north america
But there is also a bug that Canada constantly wants to break free so coring the USA is kinda impossible now
Its harder lag than capping moscow
I mean cored
Ohhh
Hopefully nobody will mind my Swiss invasion
Italian heavy tanks π
Low strength too
I was about to ask why Vichy was green
Its bc no LAR
Why do u have cav divs
Im so used to the blueish greyish vichy idk why, also we should get a Spain dlc for TLC in that god awful focus tree
It genuinely hurts to watch someone do it, basically Swiss without the fun of being swiss
He never replaced the starting italian divs
I can see that, I'm asking why he kept them
Because he is a really new player
I'm asking him
Italy doesnβt start with heavy tanks
Screw the person that recommended me to play spain π
Thats not what he's saying either

Understandable, but it is probably just because he is a new player
Doesn't know to replace the crappy starting italian divs
Not hard. Early USA is a joke
Okey either they looked up heavy tank division online, or just changed the icon of the italian starting tank template
Real af
Mfs googling hoi4 templates π
Thats why my mod is gonna be smth.. fun
Ur making a mod?
Cuz reddit is a public source
Discord isn't sadly
The ask for help channel is the only place I get my templates
Peak
Hoi4 templates are the friends we send to war along the way π
What if I told you they're not optimal π
Nah they're fine
I just have very small issues with them
Im not a try hard player trying to be 100% optimal
Im just a casual who has spent way to much time playing this god damn game
I js use regular 18w divisions with support companies
Cheap and good enough for sp
Make it 16w and it would be good
18w is kinda eh
Why 16w
Fits better into forests
OR any terrain that's worth defending
Hm il try that
Cuz plains kinda get one-shot anyhow
Both are good, but 16w is cheaper and what the guy above me just said
(Pro tip)
Use line artillery to blast the trees into hills or plains tiles

Trvthnvke
Pro Tip: Make artillery only divisions to win
They do so much attack they just win
Raaaah what the fk is HP
Why do I have a 293938383 arty deficit
Irrelevant is what
π£οΈ
Pro tip: make no troops whatsoever cuz u have 0 enemies
Hp is a useless stat
Play Switzerland. Trade gold to allies and Axis :plotting:
Truth
Dont let them mind control you into thinking its important
π€―
But 6 widths
0/10 not enough line arty
Combat width is fake
Org wall
Arty battleplan division
0 org ππΉ
Missing special project arty
Its 38 italy and I havent really done anything yet
I edited my starting divisions actually. And yes, I did create a 10-large heavy tank division, which is a mix of all the speedy stuff, plus a heavy tank to balance it out.
HOLY
Yea u got some learning to do
mr beast?
Meta divisions
prolly
oh my
Someone better than me please help this guy out
Like remove the line arty
what have I doneπ
That tank div is just useless
Nah let him be
Wait. Youβve on a 15 hour hoi4 binge rn
it cant be that bad
He will learn soon enough
It kinda is but I'll let you play for a bit until u wanna know
Well, its my first game, I have to fully immerse myself atleast once.
what is bad about it though?
the stats seem good and I can afford it
Artillery in division is bad
That tank div is just well uhhhhh
Mixing tanks and such unless armor meme is bad
Terrible
Ok if u really wanna know. So that 1 line arty in your inf is ass. Remove it and add 1 more inf. You can just entirely delete the tank div, it's not good at anything
Why is artillery bad?
Like why are u producing 2 types of tanks aswell as motorised but also have cav in that division? Support companies are important so add those and 16w is really bad for a tank you usually wanna be much bigger
Stats per ic plus no hp or org
I put a focus on creating an army of light tanks, with these low amount "elite" heavy tank divisions
Yea thats not how that works
40 org should be the average yes?
Hp is more important
If u wanna make tanks, make them big and only contain mech and 1 type of tank, ideally mediums
A specific org number is kinda useless since it depends on doctrine. Hp is more important
Why doesnt an army of light tanks work though?
their speedy and not that bad in stats
Org can be very relative but hp should ideally be above 250
Light tanks are pretty bad overall
Lights are worse than mediums while being kinda expensive
Use them for support
Do you have NSB dlc
no
I wouldnβt even make tanks then
understood, ill replace them ASAP then
Also, what about this division? I started with it
Bad
Same issues
Its just terrible
Too small, no mech
Smh, no camels either
Trve
Camels unironically being the second best to use is hilarious
Same hp as mech right
Pretty sure
βGuys I have 48 tanks why arenβt they working that wellβ
Does anyone know if the Japanese and Chinese focus trees for KMT China will remain the same if I do not get the DLC?
set it on fire
Let vro learn in peace
Usually dlc will give you the historical tree for free?
Most likely
Just turn it into calvary π
Or you'll just get the hist versions at best
Yes youβre right itβs just so common to see people using the default templates sometimes which suck cause paradox made them awful
which is good
Armored cars probably have better stats
Yay I ainβt gotta change my plans. Although I do hope we get a way to send volunteers as kmt china. As well as a way to be able to make a faction if we go down the prioritize the interior path.
Am I the only one who doesnβt use tanks until after 1945?
You will probably get historical Japan, historical majors are generally free
I just use infantry
LMAO
Its meaningless
Add one inf battalion line and that is godly due to soft attack
That div has so little everything else
U forgot super heavy artillery
Havent researched it π
It can fight
@hidden plank this the type of template you make in moji games
Not well
hp is just a number
I thought if org is 0 it canβt fight?
it doesn't make much sense to talk about the best units in the game, or it doesnt' really matter
this game is basically, u have $100, and you wanna get the best division at the cheapest price
different templates can have different cost-effectiveness but usually the differene is small
the place where you could improve the most is learning how to get $200 instead of $100 first
yeah
but you just need to add like any support that have org
With some game glitches it will work fr
then it's 1
Is this tank template (one from bitt3rsteelβs hoi4 templates guide) actually good or is it cheeks?
ill then try to somehow fix this game, I guess
you can design the tanks themselves?
Cheeks because the gun sucks
Only if you have no step back
Its a dlc
Stick a howitzer on it
Yes. You need a $20 dlc
paradox scam smh
Donβt have AAT. So just replace close support gun with a howitzer.
Yeah basically
Works for singleplayer but not the best design
As long as you have the howitzer and double machine gun imo for singleplayer anything else is a matter of opinion and situation
(and riveted armor)
But MTG is free now, so we're prolly getter USA content in the new dlc or smth
Yeah basically anything works for single player
Other than 2w infantry
2w infantry is actually meta but you donβt know
Tank designer comes with No Step Back. Although I get your point.
biggest failure in military history just occuredπ
Those who know
Accurate
HOLY CRAP
50 DIVS?!?!
athens is a port
THATS OVER HALF YOUR ARMY
Historically accurate
Last stand and build a dockyard
Or try push
I doubt his navy is alive
Yea, so NSB might become free as time goes on
I remember when it dropped too, back when I first played hoi4
I pushed and won
wasnt that bad
probably because of the port
and my navy exists
I doubt arguably one of the best DLCs will be going for free anytime soon.
They just made MTG free though?
If they go in order, nsb will be next
But having another Russia rework would be weird
So probably not yea
Also the focus trees from MTG are pretty mid tbh
I donβt think theyβd want to make nsb free when itβs probably their best dlc
The USA paths are broken and the UK ones are meh
Well 2nd time trying AH ( first attempted got fumbled cuz I asked Czechoslovakia too early) and they agreed kinda
I wonder who else I can puppet like this
Romania, Yugoslavia, and Poland iirc
Hmmm neat
I thought u only got to either take land from em or annex goals but this is kinda cool
Danupeian federation or something 
Do u have gtd
Nope
Then restart
Iβm pretty much fully vanilla (for now)
May as well keep trying
It's just like 10x more annoying now
I remember grinding that achievement years ago because rng for it sucks
Itβs easier to do in historical though
Yea
People still donβt know how to take a screenshot
4km top speed π
err akshuly thats not a lot
if he made it self propelled artillery
it could have been more
probably
Ah yeah, Republicans won the civil war
Imagine if it was heavy howitzer
I have never seen a tank with that much lol
How tf
yeah if it was howitzer
and self propelled
Even when I specifically change the settings so they win they fold instantly
Tho how would the yugo one work now if Italy puppeted them
I guess I just got unlucky
what would u even use this for
or lucky, depending on how you view it
Division killer 9000
Soft on Hungary
i guess
For killing mass mob
Nah
how to build screens
ngl thats a decent tip π
What? Why would it get 0 org/hp when you use mech with it
so uh guys i was fighting the allies, and im playing a regular non historical game, i went afk for 20m and came back with this
at least for me
yeah nvm i was thinking about normal artillery
Wouldnβt trucks also work just as well??
Nah
No
ty twin
Camels and mech are goates
-_-
Camels my beloved
French camel tanks :letsfkinggoooo
@grizzled lark I found ur kind
theres this one time i was playing sp vanilla as germany and italy jst sent camels to soviet union
i dont think i have ever used camels besides larp mp π
Iβm pretty sure I used camels for my amtank build one game ngl
i love using medium tanks anti air
Theyβre unironically incredible good
i think i have built like a total of 100 anti air tanks in my entire life
wow
why even make them
cant u just make
aa armored cars
or something
ik armored cars suck
cuz airplanes are not cheap
Just use support AA and maybe a line aa
and anti air tanks can defeat a lot of planes
lowkey playing as the slavic union poland is goated
and getting a bear as the king of the slavic union is even more goated
yeah
i lowk never make anti air anything
besides
support company
i wonder if this is cursed or not
MTG is free, some may argue it's a good DLC (same with WTT)
anyways, mod time :D
323 errors
okay, now ive spared some military points. Would yall say this divison is acceptable?
what's your doctrine
mine is speed
no
thats why I went light tanks
Ideally you want 30 width but ig these are budget smth
Light tanks are irrelevant after 1938
No itβs not that good
Itβs too small, has no support companies, no stats
Basically uh
im pretty broke
This is worse than nothing
one anti tank division
β¦
Look at your hp
but they take organization
This thing will die within seconds
Try something a little more like this
mobile warfare, fully upgraded
500 breakthrough ?
Plenty
Is motorized acceptable if I donβt have mech unlocked/ enough of it?
ill impossibly be able to afford that. What I could do is send my current army to die in Russia, then build a new one
i could get more buuut i didn't research the advanced radio
i just have the basic one
For larp only really, use cav instead of mech if you donβt have it
Fr?!?
i lowkey never used cav in a tank division
Anyways the break depends on the tank design and doctrine and all that I just stole it because itβs a good template
only motorized or mechanized
That's usually fine
500 should be more than enough anyways especially so with gbp L
is infantry + medium/heavy tank a good combination?
i know
Motorized is just expensive and does nothing good
but i should focus on logistical
Use cav
I mean yeah but it depends
Infantry makes tanks slow
Use camels
This is trve
how do you even research camels anyway
What if I donβt have camels.
ok, camels + medium/heavy tanks
or even bikes
Mech
does anyone use railgun thingy
Idk. I think Arabia starts with them but idk
I donβt. Too expensive and they donβt seem to do anything.
they do tho
yes
Also only can move on railways
my beloved
Camels actually give more org than mech. Lmao!
and they can help in many situations
π
okay, ive now made this
Although not every nation can get camels iirc.
they make the enemy suffer
ive got no camels sadly
so camels litteral animals counter a mech
Always have been
this is suppose to be a based ww2 game
If you donβt have mech camels have always been second best
No way
and we got elephants like it's some sort of in the 400bcs
how the hell can an elephant be a support against guns
Camels are really good
Squishy infantry men go squish
Mech just has better defense, brkthw, and armor stats
can they squish a tank
If your nation has them its better to use them for tank divs than motorized or Calvary
Left or right for which sides
If you went full blitzkrieg you won't need as many mot/mech in the division
Sink tanks get lots of org from from
double-right
sink?
Since*
satisfaction
Mb my room is under 50Β°F, im cold
Germany is holy failing
Could get more if it was artillery
anyways since i got almost 4k hours in hoi4, but i dont know shit about navy should i use, submarines to drain their boats, destroyer/battleships, to spam and destroy their boats aswell
Press shift and make the Frontline for a fieldmarshal
btw dont attack, let the germans attack and u be on defense
Dw about navy outside of subs
It makes the Frontline uniform and allows divs to stack where needed
bud, i am getting naval invade and im about to get ptsds with the naval invasion sounds
i think destroyer should do it
Build light cruisers
They're cheap for what they are
I mean they even outperform mech in some parts
Not even
Subs can do almost anything you need
What is this bb slander
I wouldnβt build any but of course Iβd refit the starting ones at least
SHBB supremacy is what
watch me get this achievement when i get 300 submarines
This is a hate crime π
Yea, thats about all they're good for
Refitting the starting
The ones you het from focuses are okay too
Not hate when itβs true
But it isnt worth building fresh ones
oh yes, i just got logistical wizard
Its more worth it to go into subs and cruisers
CL (light cruisers) are screens, but can do the damage of a BB for the sme IC AND are fast
So you don't have to worry as much if they're at say, north sea, trying to get to the Finnish coast
who actually use that
Okay, now, this should be good
why the hell are you using bikes
use mechanized or trucks
Now your just trolling
okok, ill use cavalry
no, thats Republican Spain
they won the civil war
my guy
you're cooked
dont use heavy tanks
useless
unless ur fighting tanks
i think you know the answer
lowkey factory and dockyard output bonus is what making me alive
by now i got 400k useless guns that i dont know what to use them for
We do NOT talk about my repair queue
If you manage your factories well and rarely swap out production lines, concentrated tends to do better.
If you are a chaotic person, randomly assigning factories to one thing and back to sth else, dispersed could be your friend.
nice
Ok. So this time, I did flip fascist and joined the co prosperity sphere before taking national leadership
Yh, now you can get all of china for free bc Japan will give it to their ally who cores it before puppeting it
Ai will always do that, so that they dont risk going to war over it
This is the 4th run for the Battlecry achievement
I shld get it first try just to be a douche
whats production efficiency retention
The amounf of efficiency retained when you change what a production line produces
muh k/d
germ
Shoot. I made a big mistake. I capitulated them too fast
At least I know this is feasable



If I win this fight, ill have the entire Spanish army encircled in France
delete your tanks
pretty colours
civs are underrated
