[azure walrus]

I AM USING LITERAL FOOT INFANTRY

[amber matrix]

The German ai is notoriously bad

[deep solstice]

https://klipy.com/gifs/bro-is-finished-cooked

[deep solstice]

I didnt like it when they could solo the soviet union

that was kind of weird to me

but dude

they are WAY to weak now

they NEVER hit minsk without another country helping them

and they always just go negative KD wise

[amber matrix]

they nerfed germany

[deep solstice]

in the absensce of the germans

my empire shall prevail

even though im with the germans just ignore that

[amber matrix]

Thats a lot of red bubbles

[deep solstice]

just ignore that

I have enough manpower

[deep solstice]

Oh anyways

do either of you know what happened earlier?

I paradropped into the UK

and when they capped a peace deal came up

but only the capitulated allies were in it

the regular allies, like canada, america, etc etc, were not able to be taken

and now, the allies are dissolved, and each nation has moved to a new faction

[amber matrix]

They gained independenve

since you didnt cap them

[deep solstice]

so basically

they were all independant

and then the peace deal happened because of that?

only the cap'd allies?

[deep solstice]

idk its weird but

atleast it gave me an empire

look at me

[deep solstice]

Im beautiful

nordic

[amber matrix]

when i play italy

[deep solstice]

[azure walrus]

ok so turns out that the soviets can indeed annex baltic states while at war 🫢

[deep solstice]

also all the americans are still there so

yeah!

🔥

god bless the quick load

wait nevermind

[deep solstice]

Stalin deployed his army of biplanes to their inevitable death

oops

why did I take hong kong

I accidently took it in the peace deal when I annex all of Britain to myself

Player led peace deals WHAT would I do without you

[cedar monolith]

im restarting, going to do the global hegemon focus minus the civil war, i need good division templates so one tile islands like cuba dont turn into three day special military operations

[deep solstice]

oh my god italy

you actually did something!

I totally forgot about the soldiers in Britain

yes I see the issue

[vapid hatch]

what's the us doing

lmao

[deep solstice]

I got into a funky peace deal earlier

when Britain fell

and because their was still occupying US troops

they were already in my territory 😭

[vapid hatch]

hoi4 ai

so peak

[deep solstice]

it happened in Britain too, hence why I had to go and kick them out (again)

its honestly a huge issue

I just dont care

because inevitably once the soviets go down

I can just kick them out again

[haughty dirge]

How do you get medium armaments as germany?

[deep solstice]

or stall them while I invade elsewhere

see

little rats in my territory

they eat my rubber

stinky rats

[vapid hatch]

schizo path

[deep solstice]

i pulled out the rat poison

stalin it doesnt have to be this way

you can give up the city dude its been 3 long years

[warped flint]

historically accurate

lol

[deep solstice]

I was gonna say

the only thing thats a little odd is the finnish people

but tbf it happened 3 years prior

it actually took me 3 years to get this by the way

for some reason we could never take murmansk

this time it fell in like a day idk why

thats probably wraps now though

that was their only supply hub for all of the north soviet union

[vapid hatch]

for bernie

[deep solstice]

3 years of death and agony and its JUST NOW starting to work 😭

[quasi shoal]

FINAKLLLLYLYYY

LETS GOOO

got these territories and puppeted vichy france

[deep solstice]

I have a game for you all

its guess the template

in general, if you had to guess what this was, what do you think?

[azure walrus]

well it was a fun 30 seconds

[warped flint]

which one is better?

I am assuming naval support

[worn coral]

guys

how do i make a division using manpower from my puppets?

[quasi shoal]

field hospitals, support AA, 8 mecha?

or 6 mecha

[deep solstice]

damn that was actually close

[worn coral]

dude

add arty to make shock troops

[azure walrus]

yo it canNOT be that serious brandler 😭

[quasi shoal]

it was pretty obv

[deep solstice]

fack

[worn coral]

rn thats just a fast infantry division

[deep solstice]

I thought because it was odd

it would throw you off

[quasi shoal]

I could've guessed it correctly if I wasn't playing sultunate of aussa

[worn coral]

why dont u make a frontline

[quasi shoal]

so I didn't have mecha, field hospitals, or recon

[azure walrus]

oh yeah forgot

[deep solstice]

look at this beauty

😭 ✌️

actual geoguesser level diffulty

[azure walrus]

well right now its because my divisions will soon be retreating to riga and surrounding areas

[deep solstice]

these arent real tempates 😭

read what I said 😭

[worn coral]

i dont wanna

[azure walrus]

well i hath died

i might just set a gamerule atp

[deep solstice]

its like geo-guesser

except you guess the templates

[quasi shoal]

3 armored cars, 3 aa, 3 art, support AA, cavalry recon, field hospitals?

that's my best guess

[deep solstice]

I already sent it 😠

[quasi shoal]

oh I didn't see

[deep solstice]

how tf does somebody guess that

[quasi shoal]

were my supports correct?

[deep solstice]

just knows from instinct its 3 aa art and armored cars 😭

nah it was the same support

[quasi shoal]

where'd the inf equip come from?

[deep solstice]

AA, Mot Recon, and Engi

[deep solstice]

I meant same as last

[quasi shoal]

oh I didn't know mot recon and engi took up inf equip

[deep solstice]

guys

I have a bad feeling about this

wow as soon I sent any divisions there it instantly got better

now

we can actually keep italy

1 with

[quasi shoal]

depends on what i'm doing

if I wanna instacap, then 1 batallion

otherwise, 9

[deep solstice]

yeah I just use 1x3

cause it can survive for like 3 seconds

instead of 1 second

and then die anyways

I actually use them to garrison a lot of the time

since they otherwise get very little action

[quasi shoal]

I delete them if they're not being used

Vintage Map Mod

[bleak leaf]

thanks

[quasi shoal]

I mean

I had 4 armies of them

army groups

[deep solstice]

dude this is like the 4'th random encirclement in my lines

I just killed off another 23 divisions and see this

keep in mind

this is the strongest nation in the game

not only pushed back in italy

but also

losing on EVERY single battle

to a bunch of finnish people

not even german

just finnish

and italian

see I could stop this

but im too nonchalant

so ima let it happen

once the USSR and the entire comintern faction falls

the table under the board shall collapse with the game

[viral shuttle]

[deep solstice]

damn

I just realized how far back my allies are

[finite nacelle]

why did italy just randomly become usefull on historical lol

[fair horizon]

Impossible

[viral shuttle]

What is truly impossible is how far you have to push as the western Roman Empire to kill Russia

In collapsing world rise of radicalism

[deep solstice]

yo stalin GENUINELY

just give up

its over gang

my allies might be struggling but im not 😂 ✌️

green checks against the USSR is crazy

lets see how this goes !

yeah its over

actual air superiority

OH MY GOD

THIS IS IN ITALY

THESE ARE US PLANES

how did this even get this bad

I thought the US always has a crazy air force

italian civil war started

but

too late

all this gave the new italy was palermo

sicilia

as you can see it actually gave us more land

so thanks italy and america

they had a line all the way up to firenze

like this

what a fall off

lmao

germany declared on ireland so i gotta clean em up

god BOTH of their templates are ass

[worn coral]

historical with human_ai

idk what happened but something went very very wrong

[deep solstice]

america btw

this my plane btw

like

I can literally make 3 of these a day

and shoot down 26 planes

[warped flint]

oh cool didnt even know this existed

[hoary glen]

skill vs spam?

[deep solstice]

Apparently spam wins

yo actually Im so happy we are holding them

cause if italy went down

everything would instantly fall apart

[dusky burrow]

LMAO WHAT?!

Oof the AI designs are really bad

[deep solstice]

I said earlier you only need cheap, efficient planes

and you guys doubted me

it is genuinely easy to just make a cheap spammable Engine II double Light MG plane

and send like 3 thousand of them to their death 😭

[warped flint]

Another achievement

[deep solstice]

Also

[worn coral]

uh

[deep solstice]

the reason I prefer

when the civil war happens

over not

[worn coral]

i turned human ai after germany capitulated and my game crashed

[deep solstice]

is because america will demobilize some troops

and leave the italians to hold themself

however because the civil war italy has like 300k manpower

if you just let them attack you

[worn coral]

and it looks cooler

[deep solstice]

they get hilariously weak

and then you can easily just re-invade what they lose

[worn coral]

the dark green is tuff

[deep solstice]

Least hot war in Asia

Just a minor skirmish

[opaque zinc]

Are any of the dlcs worth it

Cause bro they are so expensive

[warped flint]

fun

[opal nymph]

No Step Back
Arms Against Tyranny

[opaque zinc]

Ok

[warped flint]

britain naval invaded ireland and I had to move divisions cause thats where all my airports were

[opaque zinc]

I was gonna get arms against tyranny but should I get no step back first

[opal nymph]

You can get most content in the game with those 2 (that really matter)

[opaque zinc]

Cause that has the custom tank designs right

[opal nymph]

BBA is alright as well

[warped flint]

and now I lost a port and about to lose like 40 divisions

[opal nymph]

No Step Back is the tank designer one, yeah

You also get Soviet alt hist, Poland alt hist, baltic trees, and some other features

[warped flint]

cause they caused me so much pain im gonna get revenge

port cheese

[opaque zinc]

I don’t want to be a master at navy, but just what are the basic basic fundamentals that I should know

[tardy wigeon]

keep putiing navy till the water turns green

Hello gentlemen

[inland falcon]

[lilac glen]

How do I build a navy?

Not design wise

Production wise

Do I just make 10 production lines with 3 navy yards for every ship type?

[misty fossil]

they have 9 convoys

what is bernie doing in canada

[misty fossil]

honestly if china nukes sydney i would be in the fireball

[green lodge]

UHH

What's the best warlord to play as ?
Like strongest base ?

I picked Guangdong but is there a better one ? 🥀

[heavy vigil]

i want to be AUSSA

no formables

i just woke up i should continue the agony

[quasi shoal]

ethiopia core isn't formable

the formable gives you cores on somalia and eritrea

[heavy vigil]

wdym it changes your name abit no?

anyway ivegone right side tree

25% pop factor will be useful one day

[quasi shoal]

no

you're still sultante of aussa

[heavy vigil]

its worse for non core pop than the other side...

i will cope

also why did you use like actually good doctrines

whats the point

theres no army

[sharp sierra]

did he not use militia irregular shit

[quasi shoal]

shi man idk

I didn't really use good doctrines

[heavy vigil]

better than me

mw + guerrilla war

[quasi shoal]

what's mw

oh mobile warfare lol

[quasi shoal]

I switched to guerrilla war later once I didn't need the mp from desp defense

[heavy vigil]

mp is fake

i dont believe in it

[quasi shoal]

it's real

and considering how bad I was, I needed the extra stuff

[heavy vigil]

oh yeah

i was unlucky

i got strikes once

[quasi shoal]

so did I

I had insane pp the whole game tho

[heavy vigil]

i dont think my run was very lucky ngl

[quasi shoal]

besides a bit in the early game

[quasi shoal]

mine was unlucky cuz I had to play hist

and cuz ethiopia like insta died

[heavy vigil]

thats a choice

[green lodge]

Chat, what's the best warlord 🥀

[quasi shoal]

I forgot

[quasi shoal]

warlords, it's either that one with the cavalry buffs or one of the ones in the south

I think it's guanxi and guandong?

[green lodge]

I picked Guangdong

Phew

[quasi shoal]

that's prolly fine

[heavy vigil]

one of them has an airforce

which is pretty cool

[green lodge]

Yeah guangdong i think

I built 2000 planes while taking over China as Sikiang last time

[heavy vigil]

manchukuo is great

[green lodge]

Forgot to build the air bases though
SO

[heavy vigil]

they get the easiest decent air MIO

most research slots easily attainable

and some other good buffs

[restive sable]

i love manchucko

[quasi shoal]

why does aussa get an air mio but not a support equip mio 💔

[restive sable]

the little touch up in ncns makes it a bit more fun too

i just dislike the foreign policy branch

[heavy vigil]

you get generic

might as well not have one

[quasi shoal]

i'd like a support equip mio

[green lodge]

Where's the aluminum/rubber dammit

[quasi shoal]

I had engis on my guys for a bit

[green lodge]

Do i need to kill france 🥀

[quasi shoal]

during the long period of defending from italy

[heavy vigil]

insanity

[quasi shoal]

wdym

[heavy vigil]

they dint give mountain or desert bjff

buff*

theyre gonna waste manpower and equipment since no hp

[quasi shoal]

they give entrenchment buff and general defense buff tho, right?

[heavy vigil]

and youre spending valuable research on them

[quasi shoal]

I don't think they did

[heavy vigil]

its not that much

base entrenchment is 5

[quasi shoal]

I had like nothing else to research

[heavy vigil]

guns?

production?

[quasi shoal]

had almost maxed out

[heavy vigil]

you have 2 slots

[quasi shoal]

I was stuck in a hole for WAYY too long

[quasi shoal]

had almost maxed out

[heavy vigil]

wdym maxed out

[quasi shoal]

like researched everything

[heavy vigil]

i dont think you had all production and all gun techs

okay maybe in 1944

[quasi shoal]

I was sitting there for a solid like 3 years

maybe more

prolly more

[quasi shoal]

I had almost gotten all guns

only things i was missing was night vision 2

[heavy vigil]

oh yeah

guess my gun deficit

[quasi shoal]

what

[sharp sierra]

totally fulfilled

[quasi shoal]

-5k?

[heavy vigil]

12.6K

[quasi shoal]

damn

I don't think I ever went into a gun deficit

except maybe very early on

mostly cuz I wasn't training many units

[sharp sierra]

i just got about 40k guns from requesting lend lease

[strong belfry]

Hi

[quasi shoal]

hello

[old hare]

Hooray

[heavy vigil]

late 40

[quasi shoal]

yeah I waited too long to kill italy

cuz they constantly had tanks on me 💔

[heavy vigil]

i dont think ive had full strenght units in the past like 2 years

as in all being full strenght

[quasi shoal]

I didn't have full strength units til 1940

cuz of mp

[heavy vigil]

push

you get non core

[quasi shoal]

I couldn't push

cuz I barely had enough guns for my current units

[heavy vigil]

why not

force attack

[quasi shoal]

and I didn't have enough units to push

well I mean

I could push but I couldn't hold

[heavy vigil]

when i started pushing i had 1 unit per tile or less

[quasi shoal]

they had like 3 divs per tile

[heavy vigil]

yeah

you push

like they push you, deorg

you push back

my generals rn

[heavy vigil]

oh btw right side path lets you get a no-dlc tech

special forces tech 1

[quasi shoal]

huh

weird

[heavy vigil]

its awesome

[quasi shoal]

I didn't use special forces tho

irregular inf only ftw 🔥

[heavy vigil]

same for now

but i will later

goal is still to somehow unify china

idc about any other land

[dusky burrow]

Europe is German now RIP

[heavy vigil]

ough

im losing like 20K a month to resistance

do i go all adults

[quasi shoal]

scraping the barrel

[heavy vigil]

ive gone all adults

its so over

[green lodge]

DAMNN

[quasi shoal]

this is why you desperate defense

also the irregular inf doctrine gives recruitable pop

this is also why you core ethiopia

[heavy vigil]

then i wouldnt have 60 tanks tho

[quasi shoal]

60 tanks or tank divs

[heavy vigil]

60 tanks

[quasi shoal]

oh my god bruh

[heavy vigil]

also less guns

[quasi shoal]

bruh

[heavy vigil]

why would i have 60 tank divs

are you crazy

[quasi shoal]

idk

one tank per div

[dusky burrow]

Did you convert your garrisons into tank garrisons?

[heavy vigil]

i dont have tank tech yet

im working on it

[dusky burrow]

Ah I see

In any case, I might suffer the same problem soon

[heavy vigil]

I should research mp support lol

absolutely banging production

[quasi shoal]

how are you even in a gun deficit with that many mils

the most I ever had on guns was like

3

[heavy vigil]

not anymore

since i capped saudi and iraq

but resistance

[quasi shoal]

oh

I had 3 mils for most of that game

then I got 4 after ww2

[inland falcon]

damn, chinese generals are kinda cracked

[heavy vigil]

yeah but you didnt occupy like anything lol

[quasi shoal]

true

[heavy vigil]

also my tank count doubled

[quasi shoal]

120 😭

[heavy vigil]

i have 120 light tanks now

[quasi shoal]

why does sp art lower garrison stuff

[heavy vigil]

less equipment needed

[quasi shoal]

if I saw an sp artillery moving through my town I would be extra compliant

[quasi shoal]

no like

when you switch from tanks to sp art

it's the same equip amount right

but it's like wayy less garrison thing

whatever it's called

[dusky burrow]

True

[heavy vigil]

im dying

[heavy vigil]

manpower?

yeah idk how to win rn

[quasi shoal]

no like

the uhhh

[heavy vigil]

garrisons genuinely killed my ability to fight

[quasi shoal]

suppression

that

[heavy vigil]

ph

[quasi shoal]

when you switch from tanks to sp art in the designer, iirc the suppression drops to zero

or to some really low number

[heavy vigil]

its always been less suppression

[bold bloom]

I randomly got motivated tonight and made this

[quasi shoal]

but why

that's dumb

[heavy vigil]

idk

im giving up on this run btw

unable to get manpower due to garrisons

[quasi shoal]

you should've cored ✌️

[heavy vigil]

too many enemies for 19 divs

[heavy vigil]

i dont think that wouldve fixed 55% resistance in south africa im gonna be honest

[quasi shoal]

should've just

not gone down there

ig

[heavy vigil]

or in syria,lebanon etc

[heavy vigil]

and not have had any eco?

[quasi shoal]

make a spy agency early

[heavy vigil]

didnt have civs

sometimes its just out of your control 🤷

idk if i should try again but it was kinda fun

[inland falcon]

Mid 39 on historical and Japan is still over 300 days away from starting the war

Wang jingwei the great peace maker

[bold bloom]

There was this one run were I formed The holy Roman Empire as Italy and immediately left the save after forming it because my port guards were extremely stretched thousands of equipment down and a massive naval invasion was liberating France

[bold bloom]

Giving them 2 coal for extra time I see!

[heavy vigil]

well if its italy its never out of your control tbf

youre a major you have the resources to prepare for that stuff

[bold bloom]

Yeah I was rushing it lowkey I completed it by 1942

[atomic grove]

ah yes

[heavy vigil]

42 is like late

[inland falcon]

"Sir, the Chinese have given us 3 tungsten from Yunnan"
"Damn, hold hold off on invading for another 180 days"

[heavy vigil]

anyway aussa is a lot more rough

[bold bloom]

For me no I usually form those bigger ones by 1945

[bold bloom]

Them 3 tungsten feed our entire country!

We can’t invade them we’d be fools!

[inland falcon]

Do people here realize there's an official tfr server

[bold bloom]

Yes.

I am muted for a week right now

They didn’t like my cheeto impression quite frankly

[inland falcon]

The 1.5 million well equipped Chinese divisions waiting in the north east :

[inland falcon]

I wasn't muted but I did leave because it's full of "Loji fans". Loji jokes get really unfunny really fast

[bold bloom]

What’s “Loji” if I may ask

[inland falcon]

No fun allowed.

[inland falcon]

Chinese AI leader the new left can get in power if they lose the taiwan war

[rare sand]

what's a fun and easy nation and path?

[quasi shoal]

depends on how easy

[bold bloom]

I think this is kinda obvious GERMANY!

[quasi shoal]

germany is easy but I don't really find it fun

[inland falcon]

Yeah thats kinda just the case for all easy paths

[quasi shoal]

are you allowed that tag? 😭

[rare sand]

aside from germany, i've just played germany

[inland falcon]

Who's gonna stop me?

[bold bloom]

Try Italy

Italy can be a bit tricky but isn’t overly complicated or powerful either

[quasi shoal]

it wasn't really fun without dlc from what I remember tho

[bold bloom]

Besides navy you won’t catch me dead understanding navy

[bold bloom]

Tbh I used to just pirate DLCs

Now I’m a changed man

Besides CK3

[inland falcon]

Some guy dropped his ship templates (I think they came from bittersteel though) and I just pump those out. Does the trick against the AI

[quasi shoal]

it's pretty simple

you shit out light cruisers

and then you put them on patrol with naval bombers

boom you win navy

[bold bloom]

I mean I like playing navy with a actual navy if you get my drift

I try building an actual navy!

[quasi shoal]

that's not too difficult either

not too difficult to understand, actually getting an actual navy is hard

[inland falcon]

If you're not larping you aren't playing paradox games properly lol

[bold bloom]

Well the reason it’s kinda hard is because building it takes forever and if you Pheck up along any way you loose the thing you built up for 2 hrs depending on your computer ofc

[quasi shoal]

the real larp is playing italy, not making a good navy, and selling every war you do

[bold bloom]

Well now in The Great War Redux you are now expected to sit and die on the historical path

https://tenor.com/view/1984-movie-projector-gif-19435282

[dusky burrow]

Someone made a mistake

(curt who games video)

[quasi shoal]

fool didn't do the sultanate of aussa world conq

[bold bloom]

https://tenor.com/view/joe-pesci-what-the-fuck-wtf-wtf-is-that-what-the-fuck-is-this-gif-24937450

[bold bloom]

I’m so glad the game is informational

I wouldn’t of known it was Norway

Or Norwegian at that

[trim schooner]

is this norway

[bold bloom]

No it’s Norwegian Norway

[dusky burrow]

i saw that on the reddit lmao

reichskommissariat got enough compliance and autonomy, so it formed a collab government

[bold bloom]

I did steal it

https://tenor.com/view/another-easy-steal-steal-gif-gif-steal-gif-gets-stolem-gif-7935542554022949277

[hollow quiver]

anyone wanna play pve?

[quasi shoal]

I would but it's too late

[inland falcon]

hehe

[signal oracle]

Holy Battleplan

[inland falcon]

yeah there was no one on the front for awhile and i didn't feel like microing

also its the ai so gaf

[dusky burrow]

Do you guys think that France+Italy+Spain+Portugal will win or will Germany solo them all

[green lodge]

Solo

It's like 2 fronts max

[inland falcon]

tbf during ww1...

[green lodge]

If italy was on the right

They could have won

ww1 was Soviets + france vs Geramny + Austria Hungary
British was trying to make sure nobody grew too powerful
italy was being offered stuff to stay out or stay in

[limpid field]

cool

[inland falcon]

france, italy and portugal were all in the entente, and ai spain is a pushover because of the civil war

so they basically dont count

[warped flint]

Lol its not even 37

ima stop so czechoslovakia can do industry focuses at least

[green lodge]

Is this a cancer ?

[slim nexus]

scanning for mexicans

[green lodge]

Wat

Knock knock

[manic iris]

@leaden oyster am tryin again to do HRE

[slim nexus]

Who's there

[green lodge]

It's your joke 🥀

[old lake]

Rushed Barbarossa in 1937

Soviets were pissed

[manic iris]

guys how do i get more war support

[limpid field]

cool right

[inland falcon]

okay man whatever

[dusky burrow]

the backstab is real

oof

better prepare well

[inland falcon]

Rat bastard shenanigans

No

[manic iris]

which one is better

[queen terrace]

Panzer

[queen terrace]

Damn bro

[warped flint]

if your going infantry go left

armor go right

[manic iris]

i did prussiian

guys could yall see how im doing, idk really if these divs are good

i modified them myself im not sure if they r good

[tawdry nebula]

Good morning guys.

[inland falcon]

thanks guys.

[green lodge]

Build SPGs if you want soft attack

[manic iris]

what are those

[vital cove]

never buy tanks from the ai

the ai can't design tanks

[green lodge]

Buy it

I want to see how bad they are

[opaque zinc]

I just don’t get it bro

I don’t even know the basics

How do I defend against naval invasions

How do I do that

[bold bloom]

Port garrisoning

[opaque zinc]

What does that mean

[bold bloom]

You should watch bittersteel

[opaque zinc]

I do

[bold bloom]

He teaches a lot in his disaster saves

[bold bloom]

Using your weaker troops to hold ports

So the enemy can’t capture it and use it as a base of operations

[opaque zinc]

I’ll try to understand navy more it’s just like this big brick wall

[opaque zinc]

Yeah cause doesn’t the ai automatically send divisions to it

[bold bloom]

Yes if the enemy captures a port

They will throw devisions into it

[opaque zinc]

Is that dangerous though

[bold bloom]

To widen the gap

[bold bloom]

It’s risky on the ai’s part but just as hard for the player

Depending on circumstance

[opaque zinc]

Ok

Right now uhm

I’m the Russian empire with every country I can fragmented

So Japan has a war against me

With no borders

And idk how to naval invade

I could paradrop but I have no clue how strong the mainland Japan is

[atomic wolf]

paradrop or smth

[opaque zinc]

I’m also playing rt56 cause I can’t afford dlc so idk if that changes anything

[bold bloom]

Not really

DLCs just add additional country content

[opaque zinc]

Ok

Do I have to use transport planes for paradropd

[bold bloom]

Or gameplay content but it shouldn’t be that much different

[bold bloom]

Transport planes and paratroopers

You need to rule the sky also

[opaque zinc]

Dude this is just sad

[errant remnant]

💀

[tawdry nebula]

One question guys.

The Expansion Pack 2 is a sort of pre-order in which you will get all the dlc right?

[bold bloom]

You need 75% air supremacy in the areas you want to land in

[opaque zinc]

Ok

[queen terrace]

Go 1 billiard

[errant remnant]

wdym

[opaque zinc]

I need more planes in probably just gonna restart

[warped flint]

Why wont romania give me oil

[queen terrace]

One billiard losses

[bold bloom]

Every paradox game at this point is a game unfinished and only made for DLCs

[opaque zinc]

I’m only in like 1938 anyways

I was so behind military wise

[bold bloom]

Because you need to subjugate Romanias economy

It’s a focus

[opaque zinc]

I’m going back to Hungary I can’t do this major shit

[bold bloom]

And it makes it easier to get oil from them in trade

[opaque zinc]

Give me no navy and watch me cook

Soon as I see that unread navy result I’m out

[tawdry nebula]

I don't find it unfinished tbh as I'm enjoying the game as I have it from 2019.

[warped flint]

rate this kd ratio

doing okay

[bold bloom]

I mean modern day paradox games

[tawdry nebula]

As I have 2261 hours also.

[tawdry nebula]

Oh, ok.

[opaque zinc]

It’s not 5 billion to 1 so 1/10

[bold bloom]

Most of their newer games are games set up for DLCs

[heavy vigil]

d. 500 💔

[bold bloom]

I have 1600

[warped flint]

I have 2,600

[tawdry nebula]

Nice.

[warped flint]

I did 1 coloborattion on belgium and 2 on france

Also ignore how I am barley using factories I just take the beneluxe and france

[slim nexus]

1255

[tawdry nebula]

Nice.

[warped flint]

my first airlion

[inland falcon]

i hope stalin has a nightmare and shits the bed

factions are definitely not fixed still because why tf would the soviets ever accept the PRC into their alliance while the germans are invading in the west and mao is already losing

[tawdry nebula]

Good luck in the Battle of London.

[warped flint]

they sent a bit of troops lmao

my cas is letting me hold

im doing like 60 cas whenever they attack

[tawdry nebula]

I see.

I suggest to send in the Panzer Division. @warped flint

Like the 6th Panzer Division and so on.

[warped flint]

Got the southern uk

[tawdry nebula]

Nice.

[atomic grove]

how am i even supposed to do this

there is nothing i can do

[tawdry nebula]

In what year you are in our run ches? Just for know.

[warped flint]

1941

[tawdry nebula]

Oh, nice.

In theory you are close to win WW2.

[inland falcon]

expedition to moscow i guess...

i love siberian warfare

[tawdry nebula]

As you are doing Operation Seelöwe.

[warped flint]

Well

I was about to

but I was justiflying on small countries to get them for free

and sweden somehow counted as a major

and it took me to long to cap t hem

and the us got in

[tawdry nebula]

Oh, I see.

Then good luck against the USA.

[limpid field]

[inland falcon]

[tawdry nebula]

Oh, ok.

But yeah Germany when it was the Prussian Empire was quite big.
