[floral sedge]

Im a new player, I have all the dlcs and play in civilian, i can take poland fairly easy anda have a basic knowledge biut the game. I take the netherlands and i cant get past belgium

[steel zephyr]

[sudden thistle]

No supply

This is the port from where u get supply from

[floral sedge]

Help tho

[sudden thistle]

What’s the question ur asking

The answer is most likely skill issue though

And/or having no supply

[wary rivet]

I think thats why he is asking for help.

[sudden thistle]

Well he just says he is new and can’t get past Belgium

Not much I can do without more knowledge

[steel zephyr]

declared on soviets...

[floral sedge]

i take the netherlands fairly easy, i model tank templates give them to rommel and only invade belgium with 24 troops. (Plus 11ish tanks) for some reason i cant break in

[fair isle]

Lowkey trying to rebuild

How do I get naval dominance without using patrol tho

[frozen trout]

Use air force to gain more

[lethal ether]

i genuinely have no idea i just thought the was a funny thing to reply with

[knotty vortex]

no, forts get put there automatically through focuses

how am i supposed to attack

when my units are defending

and losing

[heavy vigil]

whats your army and IC looking like

it looked like you just had nothing out

you know germany will attack you like mid 38

[iron iron]

Genuinely

What happened in Spain with historical ai off

What happens

I see vids of 18 different spains all in a civil war with sabotaged

Each other

Idk why it said sabotaged

[knotty vortex]

i had 55 units

of 18 width inf

with art and engi

[heavy vigil]

ok so why do you need so much inf

like i get having maybe idk 4 per tile

i dont think thatd be 55?

more like 48 MAX ish

infantry is good, it can hold

but it wont win you the war

i also forgot to tell you youll probably need some AA

line in tanks, support in inf

which is on me

[stark pebble]

absolutely top tier border gore

[grizzled zenith]

You can see where my capital is

[iron iron]

This is

Good news

Easy annex France

[clever shuttle]

is this hoi4 or with mods?

[grizzled zenith]

No paratroopers btw

[grizzled zenith]

[iron iron]

I’ve never used a paratrooper

Jus found out

[grizzled zenith]

[iron iron]

I’m 100

Percent

Going to

Tomorrow

I only use one mod and that is instant war

I’m not bothered to use focus trees n shit

For war goals

[grizzled zenith]

Just play with no ironman and type allowdiplo in the console at this point

[iron iron]

I don’t user Ironman

I got 0 achievements

I’m still meh at the game

I can conquer Europe as Germany including uk

But their easy

USSR I always fail with

[grizzled zenith]

Nice

[grizzled zenith]

I just created a collab government(using spies)

They allow to cal it much earlier

[iron iron]

Only problem was uk is

Naval

Invasion is kinda hard for superior

Naval

Usually I go into the 1936 as Germany get. A few more divisions and invade them before the year ends

France does join a few months after you invade them (slow process since not much troops)

[heavy vigil]

what do you struggle with?

[iron iron]

Everything vro

Beats me anyways I usually don’t take that path

Usually take balkans and go through turkey and take all those countries

And Africa ig

[flint wyvern]

Kill japan attack on two fronts,build up supply

[iron iron]

But taking Britain gives you Africa

[heavy vigil]

eco?

[iron iron]

I have

0 idea on how

Economy works

😃

[flint wyvern]

This varies on country well I would say the easiest nation is the uk

[iron iron]

How do I invade Japan vro

[iron iron]

Uk is pretty es

Need like 30 divisions

Around their

For me

[flint wyvern]

Copy irl usa do operation downfall instead of nukes

[iron iron]

Again the second you beat a country

Once

You kinda get how to

[heavy vigil]

make mils

[iron iron]

I always do

[iron iron]

Invade them easy

First time I killed uk

[flint wyvern]

No this varies on nation line imagine spamming out Mills day 1 as USA

[heavy vigil]

alright thats good enough just dont make anything else and youll be better than idk 40-50% of hoi players

[iron iron]

Was so much trial and error and reloading saves

Now it’s ez

[heavy vigil]

thats fine

[flint wyvern]

I mean usa is the easiest country to play

[iron iron]

I’m good but bad ig

[heavy vigil]

itll get you an army

its not optimal but it will work

[flint wyvern]

What country are you playing

[iron iron]

Always Italy or Germany

My bad for

Taking photo

Of minister

Monitor

This was kind jokes run

I was physically trying to get as MUCH land as possible

This was like a week ago right now I’m trying to restore Rome

[flint wyvern]

Build civs till u have 50 for focus then build mills
Squad of goons :Goebells(Todt switch after org Todt to speer) todt

[iron iron]

Okey dokie

[heavy vigil]

only 1 civ

schluss gives you the rest

[flint wyvern]

After I'm done doing soviet I'm playing as Bulgaria

[iron iron]

This isn’t me but that’s the empire

And while playing as Italy

Benito get kicked out of government

Is that a bad thing

My stability was like 80 percent

[flint wyvern]

When should u start ww2 as germany I mean how long can u wait till ur economy goes to crap

[iron iron]

So idk

[heavy vigil]

you dont wanna wait too long anyway? ideally early to mid 38

[flint wyvern]

38 💀

[iron iron]

I can take uk France Poland Sweden Norway Yugoslav by late 1940 (starting in 1939)

And if I’m trying to rebuild an empire is their a way to use commands to just take a state not a whole country

Not using commands for Rome I just wanna do it for the ottamons

[flint wyvern]

Should I play tank only Bulgaria or do a proper germany 🤔

[iron iron]

And as Austria bro how do you not get clapped by Germany

I take Hungary as Austria whatever

Then Germany just eats me

[heavy vigil]

you have very strong militia buffs

utilize them

[iron iron]

Is their any way to just

Not get attacked

[heavy vigil]

joining any faction bypasses anschluss

[astral forum]

Dawg your still on the playthrough 😭

What year is it 😭

[azure walrus]

1953

I released Italy (communist) and tried to invade

to raise wt

I annexed them but wt wasnt high enough

and now it fell all the way back down to 7%

my plan rn is:

Flip fascist with strasser

take out usa

[astral forum]

Dear lord 😭
Maybe try on a nation in a large faction, that might help? Idk I think your run is cooked

[azure walrus]

my plan is

flip fascist w/ str asser

take out usa

then flip back to nonaligned using alfred hugenberg

if that fails ill at least get the weltpolitik achievement

for taking back old colonies

(some of which belong to the usa)

sunk cost fallacy bro

[astral forum]

[azure walrus]

wait a minute

i could try this

i have cores on like

very little of my empire

so maybe I do the civil war

[viral summit]

Excuse me but does paradox know about this??? Watch this video it is disgusting what the dev team does https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4an13ppH4Bs

[dusky burrow]

Okay this is bugged rip

[azure walrus]

ill do that later

[azure walrus]

so maybe i do the civil war

?

to raise the wt

[dusky burrow]

this is a mod development team

paradox isn't related to that dev team

[azure walrus]

so like is this a functional plan

[cedar latch]

sigh

whats the situation?

[heavy vigil]

theyre not affiliated with pdx?

[azure walrus]

not only am i the only large faction in the world, I need 50% wt to justify

and if i had 50% wt

I would jsut justify on the us in the fiorst place

can I like

go into the game files

and change wt to 51%

or something like that

to justify on the us

or would tht ruin the ironman

[astral forum]

Yeah it's gross but it's not Paradox, it's a mod

[viral summit]

Oh yeah but how could a community so vile go unknown about

[viral summit]

My bad

[viral summit]

They spam slurs everywhere and stuff

[astral forum]

I think bc it's a hoi4 mod, but it's published through the Steam Workshop, so they can't actually do anything about it.

[heavy vigil]

its known about to a degree

[viral summit]

No of course not, I meant like its crazy how such a massive mod with crazy shit is unknown about for their actions

[viral summit]

Maybe steam should take them down wow

[heavy vigil]

PR is just mass gaslighting

[viral summit]

I hope something gets done about it because the shit in that video is horrendous what they do

[astral forum]

Idk if they can, partially bc the issues are on Discord, not Steam, and partially bc idk what Steams policy on bans for things outside of Discord are

You could just report the slurs though

[warped flint]

got a easy achievement

[quasi shoal]

Not for the ai lol

[heavy vigil]

always a treat looking at the polish civil war

sometimes theyre quick and its 200K combined casualties

sometimes its 2 million

[warped flint]

oh dear god this color is disgusting

[heavy vigil]

who knows

[molten forge]

what can i do

[quasi shoal]

I only ever see them lose

[heavy vigil]

i think about 2 days ago i made a war so equal the ai took 4 million both sides casualties

invading ukraine as russia not like major v major

pretty devastating

it was like 1.6 mil losses to 2.4mil

[molten forge]

how can i naval invade

my troops aint moving no matter what i do

[quasi shoal]

Did you finish planning

[astral forum]

And have naval superiority in all of the tiles along the path?
-# Unless they changed that in the NCNS update...

[half onyx]

They did change the entire naval system...

[astral forum]

Dies

Right when I was getting some of the basics

-# Been a couple months since I hopped on...

[half onyx]

Basically now you need to have patrol ships aswell to get effective naval superiority

[quasi shoal]

Not just effective

To get any

[astral forum]

Dear lord

[half onyx]

Yup... Thats what I meant by effective

[astral forum]

Time to do some reasearch

[half onyx]

Basically the design meta is still the same (as far as I know)

But now you also want to get spotting cruisers

1 for every sea zone basically

[quasi shoal]

Why?

[half onyx]

Cheap and effective so why not. Instead of cockroach destroyers

[quasi shoal]

Why spotting cruisers

[half onyx]

with effective I mean you can get a lot of spotting stats on it

[half onyx]

To get the superiority and to spot the enemy fleets before the spot you so you can engage better

[quasi shoal]

Ohh

[stone gate]

why is stalin bricked?

[azure walrus]

bricked? like, some kind of block? a soviet block, even?

[half onyx]

[winter fulcrum]

bradar wat is this

[azure walrus]

Why is the USA moving like Sans, avoiding being conquered and preventing me from justifying through sheer determination(lowering wt)

I know the game is working against me, I just cant prove it...

[small bluff]

An old gameplay when everyone go monarchist. Because monarchist are funny.

[azure walrus]

but unfortunately for them, I have one last trick up my sleeve...

[fierce mist]

Portugal stands strong

[small bluff]

Honestly I do not know. But in factions, I prefer the Reichspakt name or Central Powers than Mittle Europa.

[restive sable]

imagine having the kaiser tell you, (otto strasser), in 1953 that they need you in the government so that way they can finally conquer the world

[small bluff]

People, what is the best name for a new Russian Empire (in mods like Millenium Dawn, or The Fire Rises).

— Holy Romanov Empire.
— Tsardom Federative of Russia.
— Eurasian Empire.
— Russian Empire.

Extra:
— Third Rome.

I really wants to know your opinions.

[kindred briar]

I have come to the realization that I have played more old world blues Then base game

and I still dont know what combat width is

[atomic grove]

great tsardom of russia

assuming romanovs are still in power

or just outright second russian empire

[small bluff]

With the romanovs, of course.

I prefer always the classic Russian Empire and the tricolor imperial flag.

[restive sable]

Tsardom of Russia or Russian Empire fits the most

[small bluff]

That's the good!

[vital cove]

holy romanov empire

😭😭😭 bro what.

oh i love darkest hour

nah i almost won

I do too, however the faction name was chosen through focus tree 15 years ago.

[steel zephyr]

trying a latvia run but BOTh estonia and latvia have a soviet civil war at same time 😢

[azure walrus]

can you send volunteers

maybe spam out garbage divisions with a single battallion of cav each until you hit 30 divs total, then send your good divisions as volunteers?

would that work?

[steel zephyr]

mp low despite some focuses giving extra mp boost, and i havent made any new units

estonian communists lost but lithuanian communists are gonna win and I can't do nothing about it 😭

[azure walrus]

not even lend lease or attache

😭

hate it when ts happens

well

[steel zephyr]

its so over

[azure walrus]

its so celminš gustover

[steel zephyr]

i'll just absorb estonia and then worry about lithuania later

[azure walrus]

wait

ur on nonhistorical right

and you can tell if the soviets are going to go through a civil war

so maybe you just wait

[steel zephyr]

yea maybe

[azure walrus]

if they have factionalism national spirit

theyre doing the left/right opposition civil war

if you click on the soviet "unknown focus"

and the "beaten, but not defeated" branch still appears in the big '37

theyre gonna do the monarchist/fascist civil war

at least thats what works for me all the time

[steel zephyr]

civil war happening for me, i heard that for civil wars its better to switch all current units to arty then switch back on my side

[fair isle]

short, rapid messages unrelated to the other conversations going on, including unrelated GIFs and emojis are typically considered spam, though you may disagree with my definition, and that would be a fair complaint

YOO

[azure walrus]

did my advice work

?

👉 👈

[steel zephyr]

which advice 🤤

[azure walrus]

oh did you already know how to tell if the soviets are gonna have civil war

is this common knowledge

[steel zephyr]

no i just see it happen most of hte times

[azure walrus]

this and below

messages

[azure walrus]

i wonder how the timeline would be affected if i sent this inconspicuous little fella to die trying to orchestrate a reactionary coup

[steel zephyr]

tryna find where it gives me claims on esti and latv so that it doesnt take a century to justify

[azure walrus]

the lightning strikes

also ostland gives you cores

so you can justify more quickly

[azure walrus]

this demands the other baltic states to get annexed into you

idk what supporting baltic fascists does because i never do it

but consecrate the brotherhood gives you puppet wargoals I think

[steel zephyr]

got the default infantry ready on lith's border

survivedf with 5 after civil war, made 2 more so far

will sneak in one of these as i got a lot of arty to spare

[azure walrus]

isnt line artillery bad

idk i think i heard it in the ask for help here channel

[high totem]

I think Bulgaria is becoming a menace

[azure walrus]

bulgaria is begoming two menaces

[steel zephyr]

in axis now atleast

[azure walrus]

you gonna form ostland?

[steel zephyr]

probably

havent played latvia before

[azure walrus]

alright

one of the paths is ostland

where you stay loyal to germany

(at least in concept)

and the other is the united baltic empire

I think the allies forgot to make a nuke

[azure walrus]

china had a lil snacc

china on the three seas ahh china

why does it own the baltics

[high totem]

I don't know

[steel zephyr]

yo randomly just got another 5 divs, i'll take it

probably from the focus i jsut did

[azure walrus]

probably

did you read the focus effects

[steel zephyr]

honestly was just too busy trying to get the lightning strikes that i didnt even read it

[azure walrus]

lol

[azure walrus]

ai being a pain as usual

btw do any of yall happen to know the historical motivation behind the decision to make a rk ostland

[steel zephyr]

W free training from estonia

not sure about lith

[azure walrus]

W indeed

is that monarchist poland

youre fighting them too

btw

@steel zephyr

when you take lithuania

dont unify the baltics through the deicison

[steel zephyr]

uh oh

forgot

[azure walrus]

*decision

oh crap

are you on ironman

[steel zephyr]

called germany in

ye

[azure walrus]

ah

next time wait for soviet civil war to finish

and also

if you make it out alive

(youre probably better than me)

dont unify baltics

through decision

do it through the focus

'United Baltic Empire' or smth like that

[gilded wasp]

yo

[azure walrus]

because that focus also gives you cores on some Belarusian lands

[gilded wasp]

fallback 1 or 2

my boys are starving and freezing to death in siberia 😭

[steel zephyr]

tookpskov @azure walrus we are so back

[azure walrus]

naval invasion of tokyo

[azure walrus]

youza

[gilded wasp]

fun but

[azure walrus]

nice

[gilded wasp]

all my army is-

wait

do i have manpower

[azure walrus]

anyway heed what I said

[gilded wasp]

i didnt check 😭

[azure walrus]

about not unifying baltics through decision

[azure walrus]

do you have manpower

?

[azure walrus]

alternatively, invade through the east indies

through siam and china

maybe

idk make your pick\

[gilded wasp]

about 200k

Im realizing

that i can just pull back and that frees up an army

[crisp stone]

good polish hold?

[azure walrus]

if you have puppets, beg them

[azure walrus]

polska gurom

[gilded wasp]

i need like maybe 2 or 3 of those armies to defend, the japs are way out of their supply lines

[azure walrus]

maybe make some armored divs and encircle+slaughter them

[azure walrus]

also why dont you make the rest of the rks

[azure walrus]

fascist and red fighting side by side

right opposition right?

[steel zephyr]

waiting for the germans to reinforce with all the soviet supply hubs i captured but then i see this

[azure walrus]

The Reich that was supposed to last a thousand years btw 🥹

the Stalinists have a surrender limit reducing national spirit that gets worse as time goes on

so maybe divert some troops to the rhineland and keep pushing to moscow

[azure walrus]

at least i think so, check

[azure walrus]

tough indeed

[high totem]

I wish bigger bob had a model similar to the bob semple

[azure walrus]

also do you enjoy playing with day/night cycle

[steel zephyr]

overextended whoops

[azure walrus]

do you enjoy playing with day/night cycle

@steel zephyr

[steel zephyr]

looks like i wont be bale to save them

[azure walrus]

bc the button to disable it is here

(its the crescent and sun in your bottom right)

[azure walrus]

unfortunate

[steel zephyr]

uh oh

oh my

[azure walrus]

i mean

you do get cores on parts of poland

so like

maybe good for you?

[azure walrus]

i didnt mean to hire gaster as an ace

[azure walrus]

oh js noticed the little entente

how fun 🙂

anyone know how to make ts go faster

im a little tired

[steel zephyr]

yeah ok, a crumbling german ally and a returing soviet enemy

yeah saafe to say games over

and naturally, lithuanian comeback

[azure walrus]

the might of lithuania

[steel zephyr]

starting new latvia game

[azure walrus]

you should play the military directorate trust

literally all the latvia paths end with uniting the baltic

there is nothing unique

(sometimes you also get belarus cores)

math aint mathing

[steel zephyr]

may this game bring me a competant germany

[azure walrus]

or play communist latvia

and form the baltic-belarus socialist republic

or play the latvian military directorate

because it sounds cooler

[steel zephyr]

turning fascist a lot earlier this time because last time i just did eco focuses

[azure walrus]

nice

are you playing latvia for that cheesy achievement

or whatever it was called

[steel zephyr]

just playing it for the fun of it

something else than finland which is what i always play

[azure walrus]

alright

i js asked bc youre in ironman

[steel zephyr]

not again...

[azure walrus]

this time

[gilded wasp]

vruh

[azure walrus]

wait for the opposition to win the civil war

[gilded wasp]

why can my navy not go anywhere? 😭

"no accessible region" The axis OWN EUROPE AND AFRICA

[azure walrus]

this time maybe wait for the opposition to win the civil war

before going in on the soviet puppet

[steel zephyr]

the opposition would not win the war at any chance last game

[azure walrus]

bc the puppet doesnt transfer

well this is a different game

maybe theyll spawn in ukraine

check if the soviets are even doing a civil war this time

[inland falcon]

Does the AI take less affect from being out of supply

I refuse to believe 17 divisions on one shitty Indonesian island with a level one port are completely fine

[high totem]

Who will win, Ma tank, or Bigger Bob

[azure walrus]

logistics companies maybe?

[inland falcon]

Wait it's technically the Indonesian capital so there's a fake supply hub there

[azure walrus]

wym fake supply hub

[inland falcon]

Even though a supply hub hasn't actually been built there, it still acts as a supply hub because it's a capital

[azure walrus]

ah

[azure walrus]

do you not want to fight a civil war?

well i have a path for you

the military directorate

[atomic grove]

my god

[steel zephyr]

a few days

disgusting, yeah i shouldnt have called gemrany in

[azure walrus]

im going insane

im insane im in pain

can you tell by what im sayin

[azure walrus]

excuse me what

[azure walrus]

anyway you should play the nonaligned military directorate

[steel zephyr]

gave up so just doing this now

[inland falcon]

Dawg what

The entire Phillipines just flipped to the

Aaaaaaaghhhhhhhhhhhh

[azure walrus]

play the military directorate

[calm delta]

[astral forum]

WHY DO YOU HATE YOURSELF

STAHHHPPPP

[azure walrus]

[azure walrus]

sunk cost

[calm delta]

I’m not even a mod

[high totem]

[azure walrus]

[frail kite]

Hey guys I’m struggling with building tank division vs soviet I’m Byzantine I don’t have many of the support stuff or helicopters in the mentioned templates in this discord

I have medium and light tank and medium SP artlly

How should j build ? When I try combination my HP is very veyr low

[azure walrus]

since my incessant puppeteering

[calm delta]

Why so late

[azure walrus]

since my incessant puppeteering led to an awfully low # of wt

[calm delta]

You don’t have time really maybe do light tanks

[azure walrus]

Ive tried various ways to raise the wt

such as

[frail kite]

Why not ?

[azure walrus]

starting coups in the south america

owning land in the south america

[calm delta]

As grecce your economy is messed up

[frail kite]

I have 6 resseach slot to use

[azure walrus]

releasing and declaring war on italy through the one focus I had left that gave me a wargoal

the only way out I see right now is

[frail kite]

And a year to prepare for Soviet after I finished fixing my economy

[azure walrus]

temporarily turning fascist with my man Strasser

taking out the US

[calm delta]

Fix your economy then do that

[azure walrus]

(and maybe luxembourg)

(for the eu unification)

then flipping back to monarchy

and getting the achievement

my final hope

is in the naked mole rat ahh person

[azure walrus]

and the hope that those people on discord didnt lie

[azure walrus]

tuff

[frail kite]

Yeah I did from 1936-1939
I got all debuffs gone and 76 civs to use

I just don’t know how to build tanks 😅 with what I have of support stuff

[azure walrus]

my apologies

[calm delta]

Don’t apologise

Just for me like been bad for awhile tbh I don’t see a clear way out the tunnel some days

[inland falcon]

Idk if it was just the resistance mechanics or if this is actually in their focus tree but the Phillipines being able to magically liberate their entire country has got to be the worst thing I've ever experienced in vanilla

[calm delta]

But if your happy in life keep being happy

[astral forum]

Amen

[azure walrus]

alright

[azure walrus]

I try

[calm delta]

Even god can’t save me from it some days I think

[azure walrus]

[calm delta]

Hoi4 makes you like it and hate it

[azure walrus]

I just remember the week before Gotterdammerung dropped

[astral forum]

[azure walrus]

[inland falcon]

deadass?

[azure walrus]

you should play

the military directorate ^_^

[frail kite]

Do you work out like gym etc been in same situation couple of times and when I go back to gym it helps a bit mentally

[steel zephyr]

@azure walrus whats the path to unite baltics that isnt what i did before

[azure walrus]

literally any other one of the paths other than historical

there's ostland

(fascist)

there's the baltic-belarus ssr

(commie)

if you get the military directorate

[calm delta]

Yh go gym twice I day this its kinda sad I might make you laugh but barley have any friends to hang with

[azure walrus]

you can even do it as nonaligned

bc it gives you puppet wargoals

and you can unify it as democratic

[calm delta]

Hate feeling like this but I always do late night

[azure walrus]

but the fascist and commie paths also give you cores on parts of belarus

[frail kite]

Nah I haven’t talked to anybody outside my family for a year 😂 or gone out

[azure walrus]

@steel zephyr you dont seem to have followed through with the entire path

based on the fact that oyure still latvia

[calm delta]

Fairs

[frail kite]

It’s 4:30 am here I know the late night thing

[azure walrus]

in that final ss

[calm delta]

[calm delta]

Yh

It never goes

[frail kite]

Been 3 years of same thing repeat

[calm delta]

I’m going gym but like what else can I do

[frail kite]

Issue is not. Not Being able to find a purpose that interests you

[azure walrus]

are any of these worth making

[frail kite]

And getting out of bad habits to try something or do something is what’s very hard

[calm delta]

I use to love gaming now I only really play it to get my mind of staff

[frail kite]

Endless cycle

[calm delta]

Yh

I don’t wanna like you know but like it gets to me

[frail kite]

For me I can’t get myself to do something else I’m too addicted or stuck in this loop

[calm delta]

Wanna talk more in dms don’t want to see to many deep things cos I might banned

[calm delta]
