[tawdry nebula]

Understood and thanks.

[eternal palm]

I'm polish remover

Look at my suffix

My grandfather did unspeakable things

[naive thunder]

Ohh

Haha but you have verlossen

[knotty vortex]

pretty sure they join my side?

[pseudo raven]

Not really

[eternal palm]

Get it right

Smh

[pseudo raven]

Ai hates supporting althist player led spain

[knotty vortex]

i mean republican spain just turns into anarchist spain

so i think they stay on my side

i feel like they did last run

[naive thunder]

goat

[naive thunder]

I forgot German from my classes 😔

[eternal palm]

Smh

[naive thunder]

Sure

[pseudo raven]

Thanks God I had English instead of German

[eternal palm]

I didn't need to learn German at all :5head:

Truly one of the best perks of being german

Not needing to learn the language

[naive thunder]

Ohh, I had English too, I chose German instead of Russian as the second foreign language

[eternal palm]

Russian is nice

[naive thunder]

Yeah, I did it because I already speak it

[eternal palm]

I could've chosen french

Obviously didn't pick that

Because the teacher was ass

Then I had Spanish for 3 years. Teacher was also ass

Which is a shame because it's a beautiful language

[pseudo raven]

For me same with Russian and Latvian

Both native

[eternal palm]

Right that's a thing

[naive thunder]

Same with me, Russian and Lithuanian

[pseudo raven]

But I were learning 3 languages at primary school

That was harsh

[eternal palm]

Jesus christ

[strong jungle]

has this cursor ever been used in hoi4?

[eternal palm]

IP grabber smh

Nice try

[strong jungle]

@eternal palm

[eternal palm]

🥱

Idfc

[naive thunder]

Why would you send a file

[strong jungle]

accident

[pseudo raven]

Maybe inbuilt browser cursor?

[strong jungle]

will it break the game if I replace it?

[naive thunder]

Create a mod

[pseudo raven]

No it's just ping replacement with png

Better option

[strong jungle]

ts is what I'm doing

[strong jungle]

ok I wanted to add a new cursor but I dont think I can actually add a new one so I'm replacing this

I just wanted to know if the cursor is used in game, in case people using my mod see this cursor has a different gfx than it should be

[pseudo raven]

Can just via mod

[pseudo raven]

Not worst

Someone learning 4 there was an option to have German and English

[eternal palm]

💀

[pseudo raven]

I am feeling smell of sweat behind join button

[eternal palm]

That is correct

Though sweaty is kinda derogatory, Id say just very competitive

People are pretty nice

Nicer than other comp communities

[pseudo raven]

Oh than it's fine

[pseudo raven]

Bro ru comp communities are filled with kidos

Who watched 1 guide 3 years ago

And think that art divs are godly op

There are like 2 youtubers who is can consider as atleast half competitive

[eternal palm]

Obv

[eternal palm]

The only one is segl

[pseudo raven]

"7 2 is still meta"
1hr latter
"I can't push Soviets because ai cheats"

[eternal palm]

Dankus and bokoen Are not 💀

[pseudo raven]

My first and last conversation on ru comp server

[pseudo raven]

They are not humans

Is Ragnarok mod still working?

Want to try it as Soviets

Ahold be easy enough

[pseudo raven]

Actually wanted to ask if meta is using flamethrower tanks

[heavy vigil]

try player vs the world

that mod works

[pseudo raven]

How i can do them as minor

Or replace them with smth else

[pseudo raven]

K

[heavy vigil]

make a land facility

[pseudo raven]

No, like in production lines

As baltics or Poland

It's not that easy to get enough of them

[heavy vigil]

put a factory maybe 3 on it

[lost dawn]

I think I am going to call this a victory

[heavy vigil]

rich minors

[pseudo raven]

For meds ?

Is it like enough

[pseudo raven]

Kill Britain and Japan

[lost dawn]

They both have hundreds of units

[pseudo raven]

Than it is a win

[lost dawn]

I could do it

[pseudo raven]

Yes

[lost dawn]

And if it takes too long

Germany might rise up

or the soviets

[heavy vigil]

i mean you dont need to produce them

they give terrain buffs regardless on if theyre equipped

you wanna build some for offensive units then yeah 3 is plenty

[pseudo raven]

I guess as baltics u can not afford make hold and ofens separate

[lost dawn]

[pseudo raven]

Just nuke while naval invading

U have lots of cas too

So your marines under cas have punch stronger than tanks

[lost dawn]

Meh

[opaque mulch]

hmm

[lost dawn]

I have spent enough hours as is

[heavy vigil]

you can

baltics are like mega rich

[opaque mulch]

i think d-day getting cancelled

[pseudo raven]

Wha

[heavy vigil]

you get like 60-90 civs max

and like 75 mils max

if you unify late

its more reasonable to have half that

but thats still a lot

[pseudo raven]

Resources

[heavy vigil]

trade you have like 50 civs

[pseudo raven]

Every time Soviets convoy raid me while I am fighting both germany and them

[heavy vigil]

you have the factory count of a major

not the resources maybe, def the factory count

[pseudo raven]

Let's specify
Factory count of France

[heavy vigil]

better than italy

[pseudo raven]

For me problem is convoy raids

[jaunty sandal]

https://youtu.be/6RObtDPoCdM

[pseudo raven]

Actually yes

[jaunty sandal]

guys rate my guide video

[pseudo raven]

What is it

[jaunty sandal]

guide on prc

[lost dawn]

What is the button for a cinematic mode again?

[pseudo raven]

Wha

Cinematic button

[lost dawn]

I thought there was one...

[pseudo raven]

Like close camera

Just scroll

[lost dawn]

So that I can look at the world without any bars or armies

[pseudo raven]

Ah screenshot mode

F10

Try this

[heavy vigil]

ive been thinking and kind of trying to do buying market equipment only as challenge which i think is most viable as the baltics

[lost dawn]

Nuh uh

Not the button

🙁

[heavy vigil]

because you have such an insane factory count and a lot of it would go to trade regardless

[pseudo raven]

Getting licenses also good

[vital cove]

i love the Baltics focus tree its so funny

like what do you mean every focus give you 4 factories

[heavy vigil]

no its a challenge so no using your own mils

[pseudo raven]

I call it a civ greed

[lost dawn]

CTRL + F9

that was it

I am happy with what I have achieved

I will call it a day

[jaunty sandal]

why didnt u take maduro

[pseudo raven]

I see Nordic countries

[lost dawn]

*country

[vital cove]

i see the uk alive

[lost dawn]

Finland Estonia is the only one still alive in Northern Europe

But they are not a major power

[jaunty sandal]

should have puppet venezuela

[pseudo raven]

https://tenor.com/view/rule-2-people-break-rules-gif-14577185944474371402

[lost dawn]

Venezuela is in the Axis

so I could only puppet venezuela if the war ends

[jaunty sandal]

o shi my bad

[lost dawn]

But I am just done.

[lost dawn]

Let me geuss.... a server about a historical larping game does not allow you to discuss important historical events?

[opaque mulch]

dunno why everyone says how italy is trash, they are defending my baleares very well

[vital cove]

a server about a ww2 game does not allow discussion of modren politics

makes sense to me

[pseudo raven]

Actually something like this

And also it is controversial

There are alot of kidos who will protect their political views to death

[pseudo raven]

Xd

[pseudo raven]

Also Barcelona is protected

[inland falcon]

um, i dont know if i'm really in any position to refuse this

(modded, not a bug or anything)

[cedar lance]

hello all yalls wassup

[strong jungle]

actually ts isn't even a cursor in the cursor files

is there any other cursor that is completely unused, that anyone knows of?

[pseudo raven]

Maybe old pdx launcher

Maybe ancient artifacts left from alpha or hoi3

Who knows

[strong jungle]

I'll just test around and see if I can just add another cursor

[manic iris]

guys im kinda new is it smart idea to pick UK

[pseudo raven]

Switzerland can reduce lack of resources penalty -110%

[strong jungle]

actually, my 'new cursor' is just the same gfx as the brush cursor, I'll just use the brush cursor lol

[pseudo raven]

Ironical for map coloring game

[pseudo raven]

Yes

[manic iris]

[pseudo raven]

Good country to figure out navy

[manic iris]

[manic iris]

[pseudo raven]

Fun for new player is Poland in 1939 scenario

[manic iris]

[viscid swift]

im trying to get this achievement and im wondering if to goof around with the navy and try to destroy the RN or to just do what i think will be good which is put navy, marine attack plan, declare, win

[vital cove]

Switzerland can resurrecte the dead

[opaque mulch]

bro i was pushing sicily, look away for 1 second and what the ACTUAL HECK did italy do bro 😭🙏

[viscid swift]

with or without armor

[pseudo raven]

Yeah

[viscid swift]

typical italy

[pseudo raven]

Decide on your own

[viscid swift]

aight

[pseudo raven]

I do some armor

Not like mos expensive

[opaque mulch]

no you dont get it, they were all reppublica sociale italiana, then i blink and it ALL turns to regno del sud with no army or anything

[pseudo raven]

Peak events

[viscid swift]

yeah typical italy

[opaque mulch]

also can you tell me why this template shreds absolutely everything in its path? like, even tons of allied marines and tanks get outpowered in a few hours

[vital cove]

ai divisions are crap
doesn't make this a particularly good division

[sonic ridge]

Is anyone looking for the American Gold card?

If you're interested please hmu I'm ready to sell my own at affordable price okay

[pseudo raven]

Soft attack with art doctrines

[opaque mulch]

im using mobile warfare+mobile infantry+air cavalry

[pseudo raven]

How about replacing regular art with this

[opaque mulch]

i dont think thats needed

[pseudo raven]

10 factories would be enough

And u will get also lots of armor

[opaque mulch]

no i just mean that t1 arty + t1 aa does the job

[pseudo raven]

Yeah but why not use something even more effective

[opaque mulch]

how should i put this

[icy crescent]

We warmly recommend you to keep up the main equipment of your main army.
Always keep up guns and artillery pieces up to date. ♥️

[heavy vigil]

i dont rlly play germany but is this civil war decent chat

[cedar lance]

hello casey

[icy crescent]

Omg, Casey. ♥️

[opaque mulch]

wait, lemme try and see what time can i do

[pseudo raven]

Maybe via starting reaserching

Are u even teching something

[opaque mulch]

[pseudo raven]

That sucks

[opaque mulch]

and improved repair ships

[proud tapir]

[pseudo raven]

No justification for this

[pseudo raven]

Cool result

[brave haven]

Hello The focus tree of Kurdistan needs to be updated.

[pseudo raven]

Why?

This country is pure althist

With no promotions only getting It's five states

[cedar lance]

@pseudo raven hey question: should i buy the expansion pass 2?

[pseudo raven]

Idk I would

[cedar lance]

what

[pseudo raven]

Already did*

I misunderstood

[mild plaza]

If you think you'll enjoy the content yea

[cedar lance]

alr

thx

[pseudo raven]

I thought u asked about coming up dlc

With Siam

[cedar lance]

ill buy it then

even tho it costs 48 euros

[brave haven]

Historically, Kurdish uprisings existed in both Turkey and Iraq during the game’s timeframe. However, in HOI4 these events are handled through other countries’ focus trees, and Kurds have no independent focus tree of their own. Updating Kurdistan’s focus tree would reflect this reality and add missing gameplay depth.

[pseudo raven]

Even majors do not have a gameplay depth

[atomic grove]

can bulgaria core all of the balkans via decisions in the fate of the balkans path?

or only historical claims

[pseudo raven]

And u are wanting it for some middle east country

[heavy vigil]

hi cat from chak

[pseudo raven]

Kekw

[mild plaza]

Excuse me

[pseudo raven]

Chak cat

[mild plaza]

I'm not Chaks cat smh

[pseudo raven]

https://tenor.com/view/dog-gif-9112304746909169110

[heavy vigil]

proof?

[cedar lance]

the expansion pass 2 will be a GOOD investment

[mild plaza]

Damn. Got me there

[cedar lance]

ill always buy new DLCs and expansions

[mild plaza]

Guess you gotta ping Chak

[pseudo raven]

I think he would not be expecting this one

[ripe slate]

🙏

[pseudo raven]

Being proclaimed owner of a mod

[opaque mulch]

you're not gonna believe it, i got it on the same exact day

[brave haven]

Many minors already have unique focus trees despite majors lacking depth. This is about representation and gameplay variety, not country size or region. and Kurdistan isn’t small—when its four parts unite, it becomes a major regional power.

[proud tapir]

AI Germany facing fascist Austria (its so good)

[cedar lance]

what mari?

[pseudo raven]

U texted about gameplay depth

Even majors do not have real gameplay depth

[ripe slate]

I worked on two of the DLC in it 🥺

[cedar lance]

OH alr

[pseudo raven]

I am not against huge focus trees for small countries, however I think prioritizing bigger countries or totally empty regions is more reasonable

[pseudo raven]

Which one's?

[tulip thorn]

Im actually looking forward to the czech dlc ngl

[pseudo raven]

Yes actually avoiding checs is crazy

[pseudo raven]

Like Hungary switched 2 focus trees meanwhile

[void eagle]

when did taiwan get a focus tree in the fire rises

[pseudo raven]

Idk

[ripe slate]

really hope people will like it

[slim nexus]

Why does it look so boring like tno

[pseudo raven]

Because it is

[void eagle]

we are at war

[pseudo raven]

Also have some scripted wars

[manic iris]

guys to be fascist it says ruling party need to be fascist i made party more than democratic what now how does this work

[pseudo raven]

So mod is hyped shi

[vital cove]

you can choose to make iraq Kurdistan in the iraqi focus tree

[proud tapir]

which country?

[slim nexus]

Isis larp mod = popular

[manic iris]

UK

[cedar lance]

i wonder what the next big dlc expanison will add

[brave haven]

Yes, I know, but there should be a focus tree for the Kurds; one section should be Kurdish, but the other things should be Iraqi.

[vital cove]

there is not yet focus tree for all playable nations, so i doubt they'll add focus tree for releasable nations, especially when that nation practically already had a focus tree that let you play them

[void eagle]

they got so much buffs

bro I'm cooked

50 divs aswell

[vital cove]

I'd say Kurdistan is one of the most represented nations for nations who didn't have a national state at the time

[pseudo raven]

Why so obsessed with Kurdish

[vital cove]

having gameplay mechanics in 3 different focus trees, a releasable, a path in a focus tree

[brave haven]

im kurdish

[pseudo raven]

Makes sense

[brave haven]

[charred yew]

Finally, i managed to win the SCW as the Carlist

[prime totem]

good morning

[pseudo raven]

Gm

[prime totem]

[pseudo raven]

Looks like gold standards

[heavy vigil]

neat

i just deleted the army pre civil war

sold some planes

[prime totem]

we are so cooked sleep schedule wise

[pseudo raven]

I am sleeping from 4 am till 7am bcs of college

So made myself harsh quota

[prime totem]

5 am till now...

[pseudo raven]

Even if trying to get asleep from 11pm

[prime totem]

damn

[pseudo raven]

So yes

Teto word of the day
Insomnia

[prime totem]

yikes

[lost dawn]

Fascist UK?

[ripe slate]

The good ending?

[opaque mulch]

habsburg acting sus lately

[pseudo raven]

Why not seasing caucas for oil

[ripe slate]

I got BBA, I got a bunch of resource rights in the peacedeal

[pseudo raven]

They aren't permanent?

[opaque mulch]

6 years is enough

[ripe slate]

Thats true but they last 5 years and by then my savegame will probably be over

[opaque mulch]

i think i assassinated the wrong guy because what the actual heck is this

oh and their focus tree is glitched

[cedar lance]

should i build all Sub types and all Special project sub types

[manic iris]

is attacking ireland a focus as UK

[azure walrus]

soviet divisions and casualties before I close this encirclement(and some others)

[viscid swift]

beautiful pocket

[azure walrus]

vs after

[heavy vigil]

japan popping off

[azure walrus]

theyve been fighting for 2+ year

with the soviets

I joined last year

[heavy vigil]

thats still impressive for the ai

[azure walrus]

half that time was spent moping around on the home isles while the soviets occupy all of china

they just did a naval invasion

[pseudo raven]

Gg Soviets controlling china

Union is evolving i to ultimate HUMAN WAVE

[azure walrus]

Sure, if there’s anything TO control

Japan conquered it first

And declared war on ussr straight after

[pseudo raven]

So no time to build up compliance

[azure walrus]

Kinda yeah

[pseudo raven]

And I see reformed Chinese government

[azure walrus]

Yeah

[pseudo raven]

If they was controlling full territory

[azure walrus]

So when I kill the Soviets, I can’t even give China to my own puppet 😞

[pseudo raven]

They still have 0 divs

[pseudo raven]

Kill japan first

[azure walrus]

Reorganized national government?

[pseudo raven]

So they can't drain out manpower

[azure walrus]

Wym first, I still have to beat back the soviets(they declared war on my Albanian puppet and are still in my core territory

[pseudo raven]

Who u are playing

?

[azure walrus]

germany

[pseudo raven]

And Soviets are in your cores

How

[azure walrus]

they invaded while 60-70% of my army was in the british isles

[pseudo raven]

Makes sense

[azure walrus]

also I didnt know what subdoctrines are

[pseudo raven]

Cover full polish border and call them in

Let soviet kill themselves

Just defend

[azure walrus]

im already back on offensive

just encircled and killed many divs

[azure walrus]

see above

[azure walrus]

see above #2

[pseudo raven]

Than call Poland for wider offense

[azure walrus]

I could also just annex them through focus tree

[pseudo raven]

Yep

Than do it

[azure walrus]

alright

uranverein first tho

[pseudo raven]

Free states in full control

[azure walrus]

?

[pseudo raven]

Is hard attack helpful against motorized/mechanized

Or soft is enough

?

[eternal palm]

Mech/tanks

[eternal palm]

Against AI prob

AI can't make good tanks

[pseudo raven]

Thanks for answer again

[pseudo raven]

Are mountaineers+med tanks useful?

Like lots of org

And armor

With soft and hard attack

[eternal palm]

Probably

[pseudo raven]

And is there any chance of light tank aa being useful

[eternal palm]

Nah

Just use mot aa

Cheaper and better

[pseudo raven]

Do they get +10% aa attack from aa research branch

?

[eternal palm]

Yes.

It says so on the tool tip

[pseudo raven]

And what about amphibious

Should I even use them without marines?

[eternal palm]

Amphib tanks?

Largely unnecessary in sp

Marines work fine

[pseudo raven]

Yes

[pseudo raven]

Got it, thanks again

[trim lotus]

I swear, these are 100% defensive wars.

[slim nexus]

The world if it wasnt coward:

[fossil olive]

Anything but a UK and USA rework 🫩

[late trout]

"What if the us got mad and took every country it wanted" ahh

[trim lotus]

All I wanted to do was keep Mexico from conquering Panama and keep France alive. The rest was all the AI dogpiling on me and France.

[pseudo raven]

Uk Is playable at least

[fossil olive]

Yeah but all 70 day focuses besides like 4-5 35 days is insane

[patent thistle]

rip

[pseudo raven]

Truth

[eternal palm]

Mhm yes the reply that's 4 days late

[patent thistle]

when i saw it i didnt see the screenshot

[pseudo raven]

Which is most over powered country for mp?
Like Germany or Japan because of new focuses?
Soviets because og their strong bonuses to everything?

[slim nexus]

Erwin Rommel is so handsome🙈

[sudden thistle]

Wait 1-2 years

A US rework is most likely going to happen near Christmas or 2027

“Happen” could either mean announced or released

Most likely announced

[slim nexus]

Also heinz guderian

He's bad asl ngl

[pseudo raven]

That's just weird I guess

[eternal palm]

Yea maybe don't idolise literal war criminals 💀

Or yk, actual nazis?

Kind of a bad look 💀

[slim nexus]

Yea but everyones a war criminal in the game

[eternal palm]

🤦‍♂️

Are you stupid?

Genuine question.

[slim nexus]

Quite possible

But id like to hear what youre trying to say

Also its a game theres no need to be this serious

[void pumice]

Guys do you think TNO has fallen out?

[eternal palm]

Long time ago

Shit mod

With cancer inducing graphics

Fk tno

All my homies hate tno

[tulip thorn]

Truth nuke

[icy talon]

Never played it

[vital trellis]

Hey chat, anyone on?

[tulip thorn]

Not worth playing

Huge skip

Really just skip any of the cold war type mods

[pseudo raven]

Overrated crap

[pseudo raven]

Iron curtain was good for 1 run mod

[vital trellis]

So, i need a definite conclusion and it's 1940. Everything is ready and i have a lot of surplus infantry equipment

Should i keep the division like this and add support stuff like radio n stuff, or should i expand it?

[tulip thorn]

I tried to give that mod a chance, But I couldnt stand the ui

[eternal palm]

Don't just bombard people with templates lol

[eternal palm]

Add engineers remove 1 inf

Minimum

[pseudo raven]

That's why i had only 1 run

[pseudo raven]

That's funny

[pseudo raven]

8 inf as Soviets?

[eternal palm]

As anyone

For defensive

Add signals too

If u want to attack make it big

Add fh

[pseudo raven]

I used like much bigger but with hospitals as Soviets

Worked fine tho

But u know more

[vital trellis]

You sure i should remove 1 inf?

[eternal palm]

Well if you do large inf you typically don't do tanks too

And I do tanks as Soviets

[eternal palm]

For small inf.

[vital trellis]

I'm as the Soviets

[eternal palm]

If you do only inf make it 36w

[pseudo raven]

We built different

[eternal palm]

No tanks?

[pseudo raven]

I do only large units

[vital trellis]

I have tank divisions yeah

But only medium tanks

11 divisions

[eternal palm]

Ye then keep small inf

U don't do big inf and tanks at the same time, usually

What's your eco like

[vital trellis]

212 factories

I spam built civs in 1936-1938 and spam built mils in 1938-1940 (as of now)

I shall be annoying and give no feedback as to why that is a bad tank

As I am playing fallout 4

[night field]

This game bro

[vital trellis]

Idk how to format divs

[pseudo raven]

How u been so slow that japan had time to naval invade

[night field]

They didnt do anything

They got the land for free

[tulip thorn]

Ok for one, its a bad combat width

[pseudo raven]

Kekw

[tulip thorn]

Not enough tanks or moterized

It has motorized so thats another bad thing

[night field]

I cant declare bc non aggresion pact

[tulip thorn]

Mech>camel>calv>motorized

[pseudo raven]

Why u even signed it

Useful

[tulip thorn]

Now im going to take a guess and say you dont have no step back?

[pseudo raven]

What do u think about mauntaineers +med tanks

?

[tulip thorn]

?

Mountaineers?

[vital trellis]

No, i don't have any DLCs in fact

D:

[tulip thorn]

Yeah then idk how to help you

I dont know anything about making good tanks without nsb

But I do know that special forces are still really good

Worse than they are with AAT but still decent

[pseudo raven]

Template like this but 2 rows with mountaineers and everything else is med tanks

[tulip thorn]

I've never done it

So I cant have an opinion on it

[sudden thistle]

where did half the pixels go

Bump up to 36 width, basically double the size.

Armored engineers are good to get, radio, support AA, hospitals, flame tanks.

I don't see your actual tanks, but vs Ai close support guns into howitzers are good enough.

In the future, the premium for offense divs in mp whether tank or otherwise is 36w. Flame tanks/armored or assault engs are a must have.

Mp meta rn every div seeing real combat needs radios/signal companies.

I'm as Finland fighting a defencive war againts the green

[tawdry nebula]

It's with Götterdämmerung that you can build the P1000 Ratte right?

[ionic trench]

Big sad, damn.

Tbh I'm not sure then. Maybe just full SPG meme? AI can't make real at or tanks anyway

[pseudo raven]

[daring totem]

Why didnt paradox release a dlc for siam when they released the rework on japan and china

[quasi osprey]

🤦

[loud notch]

swam across the sea but drowned in a puddle

[quasi osprey]

average historical be like

[tawdry nebula]

I see a divided Germany.

[quasi osprey]

look at the poster notification

remilitarisation of rhineland in 1943

[tawdry nebula]

Oh, I see.

[quasi osprey]

idk what happened here well firstly that germany falled in 1943 secondly many nations acted a bit a-historically

and I wont even start on spanish austria

[heavy vigil]

who were you playing

[steel zephyr]

shit

[tawdry nebula]

Oh, ok.

[steel zephyr]

romanians got defeated out of nowhere and now a new soviet state

[tawdry nebula]

I honestly hope after I won WW2 I can win against Germany and the Axis in a Cold War situaction.

[quasi osprey]

I am argentine league: fascist argentine

[heavy vigil]

ah yeah

[quasi osprey]

but I am not axis

[heavy vigil]

argentina alters german ai because youre fascist and all

then german ai alters everyone else in a chain event

[tawdry nebula]

You guys think is factible like in 1970 in a Cold War against Germany as Japan win it or no?

[tawdry nebula]

There are the Allies also?

[arctic nest]

you play from 1936 till 1970?

[steel zephyr]

soviets havent got their troops back up so moscow is free

[tawdry nebula]

Yeah it's what I have in plan while I larp and roleplay also.

As I want to leave a peace time from 1945 - 1969 and then a Cold War period from 1970 to idk still.

[quasi osprey]

american dream

[tawdry nebula]

Wow.

[steel zephyr]

yeah ok its over

soon im gonna have a proper land war with the brits

[quasi osprey]

bruh poor poland

[ancient drum]

anybody got a good light tank design?

[pseudo raven]

comintern is locked with Poland

Not Poland locked with them

[quasi osprey]

imagine being encircled as soon as a war breaks out

[pseudo raven]

why lt?

[ancient drum]

are mediums just better in every aspect

[pseudo raven]

30 minutes of hell vibes

[pseudo raven]

yes

[ancient drum]

i usually use medium but i was thinking of doing light

even still i don't have a good medium template that i can just muscle memory

[steel zephyr]

now its the italians

[pseudo raven]

lt recon for paratroopers if u have dlc locked doctrines

[quasi osprey]

is this an ok run as Argentina I didnt expand teritorially that much

[ancient drum]

well that's off the table

medium tank template?

[steel zephyr]

italian classic

[snow rain]

camels naval invading finland
bit far away from home aren't they

[ancient drum]

is it still just med tank mech??

[lethal ether]

is rise of nations more playable now than it used to be?

[pseudo raven]

and companies

[snow rain]

it's medium SPGs and mech now
medium tanks are still good, but they don't benefit from 95% doctrine buffs now

[quasi osprey]

[tawdry nebula]

Paraguay escaped?

[lost dawn]

For now.

[ancient drum]

what about design?

[lost dawn]

Any good medium tank designs + unit template?

I really want to start using tanks. I normally do inf only playthroughs

[quasi osprey]

well it has a pretty good military for its size rn and its comunist so idk it could join comitern as soon as I attack them

[lost dawn]

even if I do end up building tanks

[lost dawn]

Then go down swinging.... you dig?

[quasi osprey]

brazil is kinda not smart

zero divs

on borders

[lost dawn]

Show me your inf template

[quasi osprey]

its pretty standart

[lost dawn]

Yeah.... that is pretty standard

Standard as in... for the start of the game

[quasi osprey]

yes

but its easy to mass produce them

[lost dawn]

Easy to produce.... yes

but it won't win you any big wars

[quasi osprey]

well bolivia and chile sure dont look very small to me idk

but its true

If I will have to go against allies I am cooked

[lost dawn]

Bolivia... Chile.... they are not that small. Indeed. But when I speak of a big war I mean major powers.

I mean you fighting the British and French

or Germans and Italians

[quasi osprey]

[lost dawn]

Perhaps the US

[lost dawn]

You got a navy?

[quasi osprey]

umm not really idk

I forgot about producing anything other than this

[snow rain]

(add support AA if you don't have air, logistics if you do)
armor skirts can be switched for radio

[lost dawn]

If you had produced a navy

You might have been able to keep Brazil from receiving any help from the Allies

[brave fjord]

hi

[quasi osprey]

I do have twice as much army as brazil but my navy is how to say pretty non existant

but idk I am pretty chill with everyone

so I shouldnt worry about defending my land for now

[tawdry nebula]

Why no navy?

[sudden thistle]

one can participate in a bit of tomfoolery

ignore my ingame username

[tawdry nebula]

Did you just captured the IJN?

[sudden thistle]

yeah

hm

[tawdry nebula]

Oh, wow.

Just curious.

[steel zephyr]

situation 😢

[tawdry nebula]

What is the American Commonwealth?

[pale flare]

dude actually ran out of manpower lmao

[pale flare]

its a faction involving the US and Philippines

[tawdry nebula]

In base game?

[sudden thistle]

yeah

[eternal palm]

Hmm, if you dont have air, add 3 mot aa. Oh and you can go up to 38w, over width penalty is a nothing burger now

[sudden thistle]

the faction at game start

[tawdry nebula]

I see and thanks.

Tbh I'm a bit undecided if take the US Navy or no when I will make the USA my puppet state with Canada also in my current Japan run.

[arctic nest]

deffnitly not stole the nagato class

[tawdry nebula]

What you guys would suggest?

[steel zephyr]

uh oh

[tawdry nebula]

I can hear the Imperial March already.

[sudden thistle]

The hooligans are here

[pale flare]

take navy if you got extra contribution points or whatever its called, prioritize annexing or puppetting though

[tawdry nebula]

I want to make them my puppets as I'm following a bit The Man in the High Castle timeline and roleplaying it with some changes.

[pale flare]

japans joining in

mate youve got bigger fish to fry what the hell

US doing naval stuff holy

[azure walrus]

tuff encirclement

[steel zephyr]

might just have to give up a chunk of belarus

[azure walrus]

mmmmf\

i can feel it

germany is not yet lost or smth

[pseudo raven]

muhehee

[lost dawn]

Ngl that SU-14 kinda reminded me of the Russian turtle tanks

Might I ask.... why are you building flame tanks? Is that part of some new meta?

[pseudo raven]

Terrain bonuses

Atleast

[lost dawn]

For support companies?

[pseudo raven]

Yes it's not main battle tank

I will use heavy sp divs

[pale flare]

amazing

[steel zephyr]

yeah i quit

been a fun lone wolf finland run

[late trout]

i think hungary needs more flavour mods in the workshop

[lost dawn]

Question. Should I use dual purpose main batteries on destroyers or any other ships?

[pseudo raven]

Idk I am building only light cruisers

[lost dawn]

I am geussing that is a yes

[pseudo raven]

probably

[slim nexus]

Yes do it

[crude schooner]

idk dude it’s a good idea, but no one has tried that before

[pseudo raven]

i guess should have more

smth sneaky is happening

[lost dawn]

Btw. Should I build multiple experimental facilities of the same sort?

Provided I have economy to do it.

[pseudo raven]

if u are in need to rush smth yes

i done it as france to get flame tanks and fort special project

faster

https://tenor.com/view/metal-gear-rising-raiden-senator-armstrong-punching-indomitable-gif-14166479420035208375

[quasi osprey]

considering I have an atrocious lack of steel should I attack japan for at least this island

[finite plume]

Hokkaido has a name 🙏

[quasi osprey]

sorry i didnt know its name but still should I

[finite plume]

Which country are you

[lost dawn]

Australia has steel

[quasi osprey]

well I dont really want to attack allies

[lost dawn]

Attacking Japan is worse

Much worse

[quasi osprey]

not that worse its barely holding

[finite plume]

I mean these areas have steel production

It shows modern countries but I haven't modded any values

[quasi osprey]

[lost dawn]

Oh

[finite plume]

Maybe Turkiye then

[finite plume]

They have Steel

[lost dawn]

I thought you were early game?

[quasi osprey]

its 1943

[lost dawn]

but you are mid game

[quasi osprey]

and germany is gone

[finite plume]

Also how bad is your economy to where invading a country across the world is more feasible than just trading 😭

[quasi osprey]

well idk japan ussually doesnt protect its coasts

[quasi osprey]

but idk turkey is far away and doesnt have to spread its army across vast borders like japan

[finite plume]

How are you gonna beat the Japanese Navy

[quasi osprey]

well thats a problem

idk I am figuring out the best option rn

I a m 90 steel short

and cant even make a navy because of that

all of my neighbours' steel combined is about 9 steel

[finite plume]

Chile?

[quasi osprey]

I control it already

[finite plume]

What's your end goal anyways

[quasi osprey]

Probably becoming a major power in the americas at least it would be nice controling most of south america

[finite plume]

Are they in the allies?

[quasi osprey]

from the major south american countries only brazil

[stark pebble]

britain what are you doing

[quasi osprey]

I think I can pretty easilly gain equador and columbia

columbia is very easy

or well actually paname is the easiest the I can take columbia easier

why cant I naval invade this

[steel zephyr]

oh wow, SSSR actually won this time

[vital cove]

they win most of the time

[steel zephyr]

last time I saw SSSR (as Finland) it just held into Murmansk and Arkhangelsk

[ember vine]

National people's republic of United Kingdom

[stark pebble]

National Social Democracy

[ember vine]

Remove the "social" and we got Dmowski's Poland path

[steel zephyr]

whatever it takes

[quasi osprey]

oh my bruh

[pseudo raven]

i think if i have done more focused run i could get about 300 factories in total

[quasi osprey]

I am in 1944

I am a bit dumb

[undone dove]

i am happy

[pseudo raven]

HISTORICAL MY BELOVED

[knotty vortex]

anybody know any good tutorials to win the civil war as regional defence council of aragon in the quickest time?

[copper sluice]

[winged field]

Idk if it works for this country but it this works for most. Delete all units. Put one into training. Only deploy it after the civil ear begins.

[tulip thorn]

Not how the spanish civil war works

[winged field]

Oh the atsgorn is Spanish. Nvm

Thought it's like random country or sum

[tulip thorn]

regional defence council of aragon is the anarchist side

[green lodge]

[frank parcel]

when the heII did these guys get the rights to guarantee Finland??? Its literally historical and i am playing soviets... Like before they couldnt

its 1939

[spice swallow]

is it easier to carry the axis AI as Bulgaria or Hungary?

[patent thistle]

so, apparently, a small japanese taskforce was docked in korea during the korean revolution?

@fair horizon

[fervent minnow]

what mod am i looking at

[frank parcel]

all of them

[fervent minnow]

no like what mod are they playing

[dawn marlin]

what eu contry should I play 😑

[patent thistle]

red flood

in some of my runs it didnt happen tho so idk what the hell is happening here

[somber agate]

dont you hate it when the ai breaks through silly places while your not looking

[fringe shell]

im gonna fuhing jump from a very hight place in minecraft

[sudden thistle]

what mod is this

[steel zephyr]

baltic landing soon 🤤

[iron iron]

Yo how do I take the USSR

[patent thistle]

red flood but once again it feels kinda random, i have had korea runs to test and see what happends and some gave very diffrent, random outcomes

some gave me 2 destroyers, some gave me nothing, some gave me 2 battleships and a few escort ships

juding this north korea also gained some ships?

[heavy vigil]

how much tension did you generate

[heavy vigil]

seized as in seized after ww2 i think

[patent thistle]

have you invaded turkey at the beginning ig?

[heavy vigil]

the IJA and IJN had to disband

[patent thistle]

ww2 hasnt happend yet-

its red flood-

[heavy vigil]

ah okay then its just althist goofiness

[patent thistle]

+Akagi was already sunk at this point

[heavy vigil]

yeah thats what i thought

[patent thistle]

same with kongo

[heavy vigil]

but im dumb so

[patent thistle]

thanks for the reminder steam

[steel zephyr]

tuff landing were so back?!

whoops

[frank parcel]

i invaded Turkey

[frank parcel]

yes

[heavy vigil]

ah yeah thatll do it

[frank parcel]

but i have done this like 50 times and they never guarantee them

[heavy vigil]

well they can if world tension is 25+ and youve generated 10+

[frank parcel]

Like before i invaded turkey, romania, poland, the middle east and Japan and they didnt lift a finger when i took Finland but now they just come running like hogs

[steel zephyr]

0 stab lol

[patent thistle]

ai logic is real

[frank parcel]

I bet they changed something with the new dlc?

[patent thistle]

eh, north korea had 3 ships which i now have, acceptable ig

[frank parcel]

carboard and big words

[patent thistle]

its going to support the akagi which i have for some reason

[frank parcel]

idk who that is

akagi

[patent thistle]

akagi was a japanese aircraft carrier which @fair horizon is obsessed with

i present to you, the "korean" navy collection of boats

[frank parcel]

huge

[patent thistle]

its going to need a lot more screening ships

in theory its getting the screening it needs, in practice, one ship gets sunk and the capitals are exposed

[frank parcel]

no, built a ton of cheap aircraft carriers with good bombers and you have infinite naval dominance

[patent thistle]

i hate cheese

[frank parcel]

WOW

disrespecting the cows

[pseudo raven]

churchil is fun tho

[steel zephyr]

another suicide landing

🥀

[ember vine]

Will UK join if I ally the brahui khanate as Afghanistan?

[steel zephyr]

3rd landing

[pseudo raven]

british planes are too good

[trim lotus]

Speaking of: to screen a CV, do you need 1x CA and 4x DD or 1x CA and 8x DD (4 for the CV, 4 for the CA)?

[stark pebble]

did british india actually own that lil part of yemen irl

[steel zephyr]

nvm

[torn rampart]

is it a good idea to invade germany as france in 1936?

[junior imp]

Imposter ahh

[glad lake]

lol

[stark pebble]

ummm
good luck justifiying a war goal?

iirc u gonna have to deal with a communist revolution if u invade germany

also youd lose anyway

probably

[pseudo raven]

it is so small that 12 divs can close it

[pseudo raven]

actually france has enough divs to do this

[stark pebble]

ah

[finite plume]

If I recall correctly, France has the 2nd largest standing army at the start

[pseudo raven]

after soviet onion

[finite plume]

Ye

[pseudo raven]

onion is 1st and also can speedrun germany invasion
