you can assign a field marshal to your army group
also make sure you get a chief of navy and air force because they give you xp
you need xp for doctrines which basically make your military stronger

THIS NEW NAVAL SYSTEM SUCKS
are you using strike force?
round jetty
maybe put some of your destroyers or cruisers on patrol
zenith charm
i dont understand how it works
round jetty
and the rest of your fleet on strike force
the ai also seems to be really dumb with navy
everywhere my navy is they send all their trade and no actual fleets
ive had my giant 20 battleship strike force waiting in southern asia for years and they havent fought or spotted a single american fleet
zenith charm
i was playing a mod earlier and i couldnt get supremacy with 80 actual ships (cruisers battleships destroyers and subs) against like 15 british destroyers and a few cruisers
with green air etc
round jetty
crazy
zenith charm
like for some time i had both on patrol then i had one fleet on patrol the other on invasion support which turned into strike force and nothing
time to watch a bittersteel tutorial for the first time ever
round jetty
from my experience against the ai you dont need green air
just slap a bajillion dual purpose secondaries on your ships and their bombers cant do much
zenith charm
i wasnt designing anything still using my base fleet because i was lazer focused on land
round jetty
no wonder you cant get dominance then
zenith charm
i just expected my like 100 ships to be more than enough against 15 british boats
round jetty
how much max dominance do your capitals project
zenith charm
they had 7 divisions at best
zenith charm
how much max dominance do your capitals project
around 150 but for my naval invasion to launch it needed 183
round jetty
around 150 but for my naval invasion to launch it needed 183
thats... barely anything...
a blank improved cruiser hull projects 275
zenith charm
hmm i guess their base design really sucked
but yeah i had 100 ships and i couldnt project anything
round jetty
ive been using battleships with 2-3 main battery and the rest secondary
you could try that and use heavy cruisers instead if youre impatient like me
zenith charm
well for that specific save i kinda gave up and just used toolpack to occupy a naval state i had already won the war anyway it wasnt gonna be the uk norway and israel that were gonna ruin me
round jetty
nah bro you couldve launched a coup!
back when i first played hoi4 i didnt know how to naval invade or use navy/air force
i also didnt have dlc back then
zenith charm
no i annexed them all plain and simple i formed eurasia
round jetty
so i always had to coup the uk and it actually worked really well

no i annexed them all plain and simple i formed eurasia

after losing a war to europe
i mean in a way it makes sense? russian navy lacks overall and half my fleet was stuck in the black sea
but yeah even before that like a week ago i was playing japan (vanilla)and i couldnt even naval invade the philippines i wasnt getting any supremacy

with their 100 divisions
vs 400
zenith charm
but they are extraordinarly strong when i declare on them as france i still get rekt

totally a skill issue!

but its to give the player a chance tbh otherwise you'd always get stuck in belgium

to do anschluss you need fully equipped divisions, so what you do is pump out hundreds of 2-widths
this also has the side effect of allowing you to commit more divs to spain

what does pump out hundreads of 2 widths mean
an infantry battalion adds 2 combat width, right? (or 1.7 if you run large unit infantry)
so it's a division with only one battalion of infantry and nothing else

so just make many of these

but in general i'd go for attack advisors since defense only matters if the enemy has more attack than defense
dusky burrow
so just make many of these
for anschluss yes
dusky burrow
this is just a way to make sure every div we commit is fully equipped
thus removing a complication with anschluss

before i start that is there anything here i need to adjust

you didn't tell me what nation you're playint tbh

make sure you arent overextended
also the ai usually wont try to kill the encirclement if you just let the division sit there

it doesn’t work when it just sits there though

if they do attack it, put the encircled divisions in a seperate army and spam last stand
