Do you just have a single stack of 164 😭
best strategy against the ai imo
because they love splitting their task forces into ~10 ships
same with their armies
meager valley
best strategy against the ai imo
No, you need to split it up. That stack basically can’t get to any enemy
Hence why you have no control

its still gonna be more than 0 though???

That's what Stalin plays like. The others don't have paranoia. Trotsky has insane research bonuses making for fun alternative that might be stronger. Right oppo gets a coup and Tsarist is much weaker so it quite a challenge
But to be honest if we judge gameplay by difference between paths, that same thing can be said for all other nations because at the end of the day the position is the samr
Like is it not advantageous for communist, Kaiser, or democratic Germany to expand asap?
Is it not good for UK, commie or otherwise to reclaim the empire?

cause its 3x faster

Army Spirits is annoying as hell to be locked behind DLC
Tank Designer making stuff cheaper than basegame is also too good to miss out on for IC limited countries

coring indonesia already is op cause you never run out of rubber

I have to try
uhm well you will have to fight china, but demo japan is weaker due civil war. I fought china in a way where i decleared war in 1939 and grinded them to 1942. Why? because the focus tree doesnt allow you to core states unless you do the ,,anti china focus,,

If you stick with the US

and use all of Asia against china
neat kayak
You can basically screw the allies
woeful ore
invite to faction korea, siam and others
neat kayak
And the commie path i saw is pretty busted
It's a good challenge
But if played right you can knock japan out in a year
But more 35 day focuses please
woeful ore
another op thing about demo japan is it works like demo germany, you can bassicly puppet any member of your faction and then integrate them and get them cored
so dont worry about taiwan or korea independece
