Field hospitals are a life saver, i myself liberated the entire Balkans with just 7 divisions, and made a juicy encriclement in the Italian part of Tyrol

hello yalls

[keen coral]

[proud tapir]

im playing Croatia in the Yugoslavia focus tree overhaul

Democractic to be exact

[pseudo raven]

It's about encircling 1 naval base and killing divisions arriving in it

[proud tapir]

i took zara as soon as i declared on Italy

Rightful Croatian territory

[pseudo raven]

Every coastline is rightful for Croatia 🇭🇷 👏

mind you 0 manpower and 10 factories overall

[pseudo raven]

Balkan countries are pure major powers btw

[pseudo raven]

so time for sea lion operation

or sea eagle

[real tulip]

yes way

[pseudo raven]

wow

which year in game it is?

[umbral smelt]

1984

big brother is watching

[real tulip]

1943, with cheats

[pseudo raven]

oh

[umbral smelt]

you didnt have to clarify

[slim nexus]

Are u astralian or canadian

[umbral smelt]

i use allowdiplo on all my runs i dont consider it cheating

[molten forge]

am i cooked as hell

[umbral smelt]

since it doesnt really help with anything but saving time + i do get penalised for declaring unjustified war

[pseudo raven]

I do all vanila runs on iron man

[real tulip]

me?

[umbral smelt]

yeah i started playing like 2 weeks ago

[pseudo raven]

who?

[slim nexus]

Yes u

[umbral smelt]

i havent even SEEN anything over civilian mode

[slim nexus]

Philipines 🗿

[umbral smelt]

but i dont use any cheats other than allowdiplo so im not that bad

[pseudo raven]

i guess it's fine

[real tulip]

it's quite hard organizing these divisions manually

i wish there was a way for it to be automatically done

[molten forge]

so am i cooked

[pseudo raven]

which one

[molten forge]

\dream

[umbral smelt]

thats why you dont get big

you pick a small country become fascist or communist and either become a superpower prior to 1943 or you die in the first year

[pseudo raven]

?

[real tulip]

the reason why i went big is cuz im gonna declare war on everybody on 1944

[molten forge]

dream of yugoslavia

[umbral smelt]

damn😭

[pseudo raven]

how about afk defens from all major countries until 1953 as Kurdistan

[real tulip]

almost done

[umbral smelt]

now THATS a plan

you could just not get a general and make frontlines

it wouldnt be nearly as hard

and with all that power you dont need the 10% boost i'd say

[molten forge]

what if am a bit bigger and alive but not superpower

[umbral smelt]

well then you play slow

playing slow leads to that

[pseudo raven]

do planes or space marines

and make major ai's suffer

[real tulip]

this alone could probably beat china and uk combined

[fickle thicket]

nah u need more

[molten forge]

am dlcless

[pseudo raven]

they can build a bridge above la manch

[real tulip]

alright (starts training 2400 more divisions)

[pseudo raven]

like ants

[fickle thicket]

is it at least a good template

[molten forge]

i mostly made a mistake cus i couldnt train normal infantry, i could only train mountaneers and i couldnt fix it

[real tulip]

i don't think so

[fickle thicket]

holy ass

ts aint meta

it gets me from point a to b

[pseudo raven]

[peak mason]

is this a good tank template for 1940 germany

[real tulip]

filled canada with CAS, happy?

[umbral smelt]

if i use germany only for my war in turkey and then leave the axis will they get mad

[pseudo raven]

they are always mad i guess

[strong belfry]

its not fachist

just military junta

[fickle thicket]

no

[fickle thicket]

close enough

[strong belfry]

nobody

just defending

[pseudo raven]

be aware of germans than

[fickle thicket]

get rid of the tds and spa and replace with either full row trucks or tanks if ur industry can handle it

[real tulip]

@fickle thicket

[strong belfry]

hoo lee sheet

[fickle thicket]

u need more for china

[real tulip]

fineee

[pseudo raven]

yes

[real tulip]

im turning on IC

i will not wait hours just to build 300 airports

[fickle thicket]

exercise every single plane in ur airforce so u have good planes for china

[molten forge]

anyone doing multiplayer ig, it would be nice to learn with someone as an ally

[pseudo raven]

imagine this in generic focus tree

it looks so good

[real tulip]

is it good now?

[fickle thicket]

tf its 43 and u have that many planes

u used console commands

[lethal ether]

do they have wargoals against you? if yes then they will probably declare war since theyre very agressive

[real tulip]

you wanted CAS, you get CAS

[fickle thicket]

did u use console commands

[heavy vigil]

convoy count

manpower

[fickle thicket]

yup he did

[heavy vigil]

pp

[real tulip]

cuz you wanted CAS

[lethal ether]

i wouldnt have noticed that

[fickle thicket]

now train em all

[heavy vigil]

its easy

[lethal ether]

my phone screen is small

[umbral smelt]

do they matter in real life?

[pseudo raven]

peace conference

[umbral smelt]

i just wasted 2 in game months watching germany invade 4 countries at once and winning

[feral hedge]

Still, germany yoinks them from you if you are bulgaria for example

[feral hedge]

[pseudo raven]

I guess i won't get Bulgaria

[vital cove]

Any advice for new zealand independent path

[feral hedge]

Is this base game?

[feral hedge]

Don't?

[pseudo raven]

no

[molten forge]

too late

why dont tho

[feral hedge]

I mean, what is there to play

[molten forge]

idk, ive been developing industry and joining ww2

[feral hedge]

Oh so fascist yugo mod

[pseudo raven]

actually idk i trusted recomendation

[feral hedge]

I want certain goals to achieve that's why I don't enjoy that kind of gaming

[pseudo raven]

not enough manpower

mod

is better name

[feral hedge]

Why

[pseudo raven]

only 40 divs

[molten forge]

its new zealand after all, i expected more industry but better than nothing

[feral hedge]

To be honest, I don't think that counts as industry development

[clever tendon]

is tanks or 35w infantry better for USSR

[feral hedge]

The only thing you do is just click states to construct factories and assign mils to production lines

[feral hedge]

Mass assault+infantry is good since you'll mostly defend

Keep tuckachevsky btw

Doable if you assasinate stalin

[clever tendon]

and then put Trotsky instead?

[clever tendon]

should the infantry be 35w

also is air necessary

[feral hedge]

I'm no expert when it comes to that but 12 infantry should be good

12 batallions

[clever tendon]

ohhh

[feral hedge]

Tbh I never played ussr I just watched youtubers play it

Btw you are one of the rare people I've seen that doesn't call the USSR Soviet union or Soviet russia

In this community

[clever tendon]

what a fun fact

[chilly cipher]

Keisuke Okada did not lead Japan in 1939 (tooltip for Japan button)

[clever tendon]

well, I'd expect that a person would build tanks considering it's an industrial powerhouse

[proud tapir]

2 million axis deaths, the Croatian war machine runs on pure willpower

🇭🇷

[feral hedge]

You can but you'll still probably rely on infantry

[ruby remnant]

germany what are you doing

[clever tendon]

but I couldn't counter attack with infantry

[molten forge]

i dont understand

how much god damn ships do i need

[feral hedge]

You will dw

[feral hedge]

What on earth are you planning to do?

Invade Chile from New Zealand?

[proud tapir]

Albanian? I just liberated your country from Italian ocuppation as Croatia

you are welcome

[feral hedge]

It really makes my day when yugo refuses the italian demand to become a puppet

Because then I get romania for free!

[molten forge]

peru

am bored

[feral hedge]

Uhm

Simply not possible

[molten forge]

and i understand 0 shit about navy

[feral hedge]

I mean

[ruby remnant]

Allies now at war with the Comintern aswell

[feral hedge]

It was possible before 1.17

[molten forge]

who can i kill then

[ruby remnant]

cuz Finland joined the allies somehow

[molten forge]

besides myself

[feral hedge]

I have no idea if you still can do that

Wait

[ruby remnant]

oh its cuz finland took democratic path

[feral hedge]

But if you get docking rights from us or someone close you can invade from their ports

You don't have to travel across the pacific

[civic elbow]

@vague tree do you play hoi4 ?

[molten forge]

a question for a dumbass like me

wheres the god damn option to ask

[pseudo raven]

i guess not that bad

[feral hedge]

%100??

[feral hedge]

Isnt %100 hardness a bit too much?

[feral hedge]

Btw there was a focus that nerfed Auto Union

[pseudo raven]

it's not early game tech

[urban flower]

If there's anyone that agrees with my points in #tech-support and has more influence at paradox.
It would be very kind to showcase my points, be it in a better explained manner, to the devs and corporate.
I hope they'll find the time to improve the fun factor of the game.

[feral hedge]

For some reason

[feral hedge]

You made some good points but I don't think #tech-support is the place to share it

Tbh there isn't even a place to suggest ideas

[pseudo raven]

how do i deploy units?

[pseudo raven]

because todt is grate for construcrtion speed

U click on "no location selected" and then select a location by clicking on the highlighted parts on the map

you can swap them out

idk if it works

[oak mantle]

Ok ty

[craggy trail]

Armored cars also counts towards tank sub doctrine mastery

maybe add some of your own ideas in the discussion

[eternal palm]

Your naiveity is unparalleled

But sure waste your breath

[long leaf]

I have relapsed. im back

[urban flower]

what's nativity?

[eternal palm]

Fking autocorrect

This words spelling is ass

[urban flower]

don't the devs read the forum?

or was it the dev diaries?

[eternal palm]

That's not what I'm getting at

They do, and youre not the first person to ask paradox to fix their shit code. They haven't done anything about it and won't. Since that would mean they would need to spend money on things that don't make money. If it ain't broke don't fix it

They know their game runs like shit and they don't care

[urban flower]

Problem is that CPUs are hardly getting better troughout time

[eternal palm]

Why are we even on an engine from 2007

Like the limitations that hoi4 has are mostly due to the engine being inefficient as shit

[eternal palm]

What.....

[urban flower]

a 50% performance increase in single core speed is incredible but yields few results
compared to more efficient code

why do these devs or corporates not optimize their games bruh

[eternal palm]

Because that's not what gets people to buy the game

Nobody advertises with "oh this game runs amazing"

They focus on the content

No matter how it runs

It only needs to run adequately

Not at max efficiency

Or on toasters

[quaint kettle]

New Hitler

Sorry new Eva braun

[eternal palm]

That's what I meant with naiveity

Im not knocking your for your Ernest effort

Im saying its simply wasted

Which is unfortunate but that's how the industry works

[urban flower]

my point is the difference between a toaster and modern pc is only like running twice as fast

shit hits the fan for everyone by 1945

[eternal palm]

You don't gotta convince me, I'm absolutley with you on that

I'm just saying don't waste your breath

They're not gonna do anything about it

Because if they cared, they wouldve used a more efficient engine

[urban flower]

i'm sorry but this conversation wasted more breath than me actually posting in the forum

[eternal palm]

Alr keep going

[urban flower]

let's hope they read

[eternal palm]

Don't be dissapointed with a lack of response

[urban flower]

then it is what it is

[oak mantle]

I dont think it works but its VERY poorly explained

So im not 100% sure

[boreal star]

how do i fix outdated production

[urban flower]

sharing your apathy and indifference is an even greater waste of breath in my honest opinion
I've had to work with so many that follow your reasoning and it gets you nowhere, but the constant nagging of how bad things are

[eternal palm]

Oh im not nagging. I simply don't care. You gotta realise what you are arguing for. I got bigger things to worry about than the slight dip in performance hoi has. It's something I play for fun. So I simply don't care. Its apathetic yes, but I also don't engage in the negative complaining

I just take it as it is

And I don't care enough to change

[oak mantle]

Does anyone know a good way of getting tank mastery

[eternal palm]

To be for real, it's a fking video game

[reef lotus]

does someone know how to refit ships? i can refit my improved destroyer into advanced destroyer

[eternal palm]

Ye that's not how that works

Needs to be the same hull

[urban flower]

I wasn't doing negative complaining, only you were negative. Contrary to your belief.

[reef lotus]

bruh, thanks

[eternal palm]

I'm not saying that either lol?

Read again what I said

[urban flower]

usually refitting destroyers isn't an effecient refit. The IC is better spent on refitting bigger ships or making new destroyers

[urban flower]

it's ok, let's cut the discussion

[eternal palm]

What?

[urban flower]

i don't want to discuss further with you

[eternal palm]

🤷‍♂️

[urban flower]

Refitting the engine/armor is usually too high of a cost, I'd advise against it
However adding radar to your ships is extremely worthwhile (they add +% ATK further down the tech tree)

[tough thorn]

Im surprised japan beat china

[opaque mulch]

i think he dont wanna give me guns

[umbral smelt]

how did you get the falange in charge

[opaque mulch]

first do A Great Spain, then rush down the focus tree to do the Sin Paquito focus before the civil war starts, then you get the choice to align the falangists (they're basically the 2nd strongest faction in the civil war behind the nationalists)

or the strongest one since you get 5th columnist focus

I did it with all the ideologies

[umbral smelt]

i started playing earlier this month so im still bad

[umbral smelt]

you would NEVER catch me playing communism

even tho is very similar to fascism

[neat kayak]

Communist ( worst one ) democratic , monarchist ( eu) , democratic ( eu) ,monarchist and finally historical

[umbral smelt]

i dont like the vibe

[neat kayak]

Fascist austria is overpowered

[umbral smelt]

i just though of something

so for your achievment

you know on vanilla

you can pick the ideology of all other countries

before you start the game

make everyone fascist and you communist

with austria

or the opposite works ig

[neat kayak]

I tried to do a challenge

7 fascist majors vs communist austria

but i abandoned it

i got catched with some stuff that month ( december 2024) and abandoned it

i might some mistakes english is not my first language

[umbral smelt]

the people who call out mistakes are lame

especially when you can tell what the other's guy trying to say

[neat kayak]

You're polish?

[umbral smelt]

if u want a really hard challenge just play with tannu tuva and make everybody fascist

[neat kayak]

Hell nah i ain't touching that shithole again

[umbral smelt]

i dont think a polish person would have this pfp bro 😭

im greek

[neat kayak]

Balkan amigo

[pseudo raven]

actualy would

[umbral smelt]

regardless of if they like NatSoc as an ideology, they would not parade a wehrmacht officer around

[neat kayak]

Saluting you from the least balkan nation by territory but a true balkan one by culture

[umbral smelt]

the atrocities that happened at Poland are undeniable

[pseudo raven]

i ment pfp as part of joke or janre of games

wich influence pfp choice

[neat kayak]

We can all agree that britain and france are responsible for ww2

[umbral smelt]

yes

[pseudo raven]

yes

[neat kayak]

if they backed up czsechoslovakia during the sudeten crisis

no ww2

wait

no ww2 we know today

a much earlier ww2

[arctic nest]

france becaus of the peace treaty of ww1

[umbral smelt]

its all about how you present yourself to the world

[neat kayak]

maybe more bloodier

[pseudo raven]

yes

[neat kayak]

lmao France is dogshit

France did nothing in ww2

other than raising the white flag

[umbral smelt]

if Germany wasn't openly fascist and kept the camps tucked away and hidden from the world ww2 would not have happened

but if we look at it from the perspective of what actually happened the allies were the wimps that started it

[neat kayak]

And another thing

[umbral smelt]

although i do not know the tolerance policy here so this conversation stops

[pseudo raven]

probably if france listend to usa at ww1 peace treaty

[neat kayak]

the soviets did nothing in WW2 :)))))

argue with the wall

it was the USA that carried everyone on their back

[pseudo raven]

there wasn't a nazi german as a thing

[umbral smelt]

the soviets had the most casualties?

[neat kayak]

Yes

[pseudo raven]

made german waste soldiers atleast

[neat kayak]

using human waves

no good equipment

[umbral smelt]

they threw underequipped meat shields

sure

[pseudo raven]

military comand also

[umbral smelt]

but they were a key factor of Germany's defeat

[neat kayak]

They only took berlin cuz the Americans we're the bigger threat

and the eastern front was barely defended :))))

and then they took a huge slice of eastern europe

and terrorised all of the eastern nations

[umbral smelt]

the eastern front was not defended, operation barbarossa was an offensive operation

[neat kayak]

including my country too

[neat kayak]

I am talking about 1944-1945

operation Barb ended with the battle of moscow

[arctic nest]

they did like 50% without them no d day ever

[pseudo raven]

which country?

[neat kayak]

Romania

[umbral smelt]

i thought you were austrian lol

[neat kayak]

[winter fulcrum]

stalin did NOT say that.

[pseudo raven]

who cares it's a game

[arctic nest]

if you join earlyer you dont need to fight soivets and only fight allkies

[steel zephyr]

[winter fulcrum]

https://tenor.com/view/heart-love-mustache-change-color-gif-17567673

[ornate path]

Can someone make multiplayer without mod?

[fervent minnow]

he mustve

[steel zephyr]

hmm

[fervent minnow]

hoi4 would never lie tome

[steel zephyr]

a lot of my last games italy was unusually competant

though yestrerday when i was playing hungary and allied austria and italy, italy didnt finish ethiopia til 1940 🥀

yeah ok italy is getting jumped

yeah its actually over

@winter fulcrum@arctic nest you two were right 😢

can't rely on italy

spain not doing too well either

just germany left who could be a viable ally

[arctic nest]

playing on non his?

[steel zephyr]

yep

[arctic nest]

good luck winning this

[steel zephyr]

thanks bro

[arctic nest]

like in real life

[steel zephyr]

was partially counting on soviet civil war but its 1938 and none yet

[arctic nest]

i mean if theres balkan enten that mean you wont fight uk

and get a peacedeal

[steel zephyr]

czech entente exists here, with france czech yugo romania

[arctic nest]

they can do coup with no civil war

[steel zephyr]

i might jump iraq just to practice

[arctic nest]

arent they garunteed

[steel zephyr]

access only

[arctic nest]

alr

[steel zephyr]

which units best for that terrain?

i assume motorized?

[arctic nest]

nah

they inf but fast

use ur normal inf

it should be fine

but if you annex iraq you gonna have bigger front btw

[steel zephyr]

i was thinking just annex the north, puppet the rest

[arctic nest]

or just puppet them with reperations and resource right

[steel zephyr]

maybe annex mosul

[arctic nest]

there is prop nothing and its just gonna mak ur puppet weaker

[steel zephyr]

oh man this is a single province, i'd thought they'd split it by the river

[steel zephyr]

true

medhitterian fascism is dead

[arctic nest]

dont fight in these try to capture all ports an encircle these

[steel zephyr]

early germano-soviet war

japan is in axis, and it invaded the soviets

[arctic nest]

this is gonna be way easyer for the germans

becaus if soviet debuff

but japan wont go far

[steel zephyr]

shit

[arctic nest]

that will be it with ur second poteinal ally

they wont oush trough magino i think

[steel zephyr]

germany, italy and spain all getting demolished

[cedar kite]

the couldve done it in goe but no, i hate it

especially its not even acurate to where the kurdish live in

[steel zephyr]

yep, sad because i was going for the greater turkey border, something like this

[pseudo raven]

i guess that would be enough to get supremecy

[cedar kite]

poor armenians and kurdish

[arctic nest]

there is a 3$ dlc currently in steam where turkey gets a focus three and oyu can retroe like the ottoman empire of that would interesst you

[arctic nest]

[kind vale]

No fun

[zinc mulch]

why are you a natsoc vro 🥀 or at least why advertise it 💔

[steel zephyr]

[zinc mulch]

i know this game is larper central but come on

[kind vale]

Go back to whatever hole you came from

[arctic nest]

[kind vale]

Supply is a myth

[arctic nest]

vaild argument

[steel zephyr]

which units are best to counter (attack)

[zinc mulch]

💔

[arctic nest]

mountaineers

[kind vale]

The myth is strong in Sweden

[zinc mulch]

which myth is that

im curious

[kind vale]

https://tenor.com/view/putin-putin-dont-hear-deaf-cant-hear-gif-9579437206124530199

[safe wing]

Historically The Polish fascist movements were super anti German

[arctic nest]

this was ironie

[zinc mulch]

the ragebait is strong in this one

[kind vale]

Historically Germany should've won the great war

[safe wing]

But they didn’t

[kind vale]

It was rigged

They got teamed on

[safe wing]

And couldn’t have due to making too many enemies at the same time

[kind vale]

Un fair

2v50

[arctic nest]

lol

[safe wing]

Life is unfair war is unfair

[steel zephyr]

YOO FINALND JOINED

[kind vale]

Italy should be deleted for treason

[arctic nest]

it was bulgaria ottomans austira hunagry and germany

0 nolage

[kind vale]

4v50 then

Still got jumped

Un fair

[zinc mulch]

not exactly 2v50

[safe wing]

Italy was smart it was a sucide pact if they joined Germany as their economy relied on imports

[kind vale]

Right that was ww3

Ww2*

With Germany and japan doing all the work

[steel zephyr]

i cant break through but uh, neither can they

[safe wing]

From the UK and France

[zinc mulch]

although none of their allies were very useful, kinda their fault for not picking better allies gng

[safe wing]

Pre war diplomatic failures

[zinc mulch]

Italy was there for comedic relief

[arctic nest]

still not ww2 was italy germany romania bulgaria in axis and japan manchu in east asia co thingi

[kind vale]

Should've just invaded italy, would've served a bigger purpose

[arctic nest]

should know this when playing hoi4

[zinc mulch]

being aggressive and fascist isnt a great way to make friends

[safe wing]

They did in 1917

[kind vale]

Im talking about those who actually did something

[zinc mulch]

nah the war would be less funny without them

[kind vale]

Im talking about ww2

[arctic nest]

they all did somthing

[quasi shoal]

Six sept

[zinc mulch]

hungary and romania actually punched well above their weight

[kind vale]

Yeah, they made Germany lose against the commies

Especially Finland and italy

[arctic nest]

they didnt do anything wrong they where just weaker?????

[safe wing]

Lol Germany was already loosing after moscow

They couldnt have won wwii by default

[kind vale]

Yeah but Finland could've help instead of going to the old borders and stopping

[steel zephyr]

YOOO BREAKTHRIOUGH

[dapper orchid]

Reichpakt got floored look at the date

[safe wing]

Because they didn’t have the resources to do that

[arctic nest]

would you rather die for a random person or nah`? ahh question

[safe wing]

USSR already lost Minsk, Kharkov, Kiev, Smolensk, and Rhevz to say a few

I don’t think Stalin is going to say well we tried and throw in the towel

[zinc mulch]

losing moscow wouldnt have ended the war

[safe wing]

Thats my point

[zinc mulch]

half the government was already evacuated

[zinc mulch]

yes im agreeing with you against the natsoc

[safe wing]

Leningrad or Stalingrad falling would have not ended it either

[zinc mulch]

realistically Germany couldnt have won WW2 while following their ideological goals or massively altering their plans

which makes it an entirely different conflict

[safe wing]

One documentary said it perfectly

Germany and Japan knew how to conquer empires but they didnt’t know how to make or keep them

[arctic nest]

i mean

[zinc mulch]

thats a good point

[arctic nest]

japan had a good idea but they failed

to free asia form evil colonial power

but they also actet like evil colonial power

[safe wing]

The marketing was there the end product not so much

[steel zephyr]

JAPANESE LANDING 🥀

[safe wing]

Japan likes to send volunteers whenever I go monarchist as Germany during the civil war in sheeps mod

[arctic nest]

civil war in sheeps mod?

[safe wing]

Yes

[arctic nest]

lol

[slim nexus]

are mass infantry wars winnable without tanks

[arctic nest]
