#

and new aircraft

#

and new tanks

#

@tawdry nebula

tawdry nebula
#

There aren't really MBT in game, but I see.

cedar lance
#

alr

tawdry nebula
#

But yeah it's a nice idea markomrm24.

cedar lance
#

ill add SPs all the way from 1900 till 2026

tawdry nebula
#

Buy a division? What do you mean??

#

took down soviets
dont even get their land wtf

tawdry nebula
#

Did you do the Peace Treaty?

cedar lance
#

ill add the MAUS SUPER HEAVY TANK as a new SP

#

which also unlocks the SUPER HEAVY TANK unit

#

ill add the P1000 RATTE Aswell

#

and the German E series of tanks

#

The Entwicklung series (from German Entwicklung lit. 'development'), more commonly known as the E-Series, was a late-World War II attempt by Nazi Germany to produce a standardised series of tank designs. There were to be standard designs in five different weight classes (E-10, E-25, E-50, E-75 and E-100) from which several specialised variants...

#

basically these

#

@tawdry nebula

#

they will unlock new tank armored units

manic iris
#

i legit got like so little pooints

#

this is so unfair

tawdry nebula
tawdry nebula
cedar lance
#

ill still add em in

#

becus i can

#

without these SP techs i wont win ww2

#

as ESTONIA

tawdry nebula
#

I see.

#

Also this is some Art I found of the E-50 and E-75.

cedar lance
#

nice thx

#

i will also add nuclear carriers

#

and super carriers aswell

#

they are better than normal CVs

tawdry nebula
#

And E-100.

cedar lance

cedar lance
tawdry nebula
#

You are welcome.

cedar lance

#

@tawdry nebula

inland falcon
#

at last china is fully unified

#

only took a war with russia and japan but wtv

tawdry nebula
#

Chinese Russia? What is that.

inland falcon
#

i figured a buffer state would be preferable to germany taking all the land

cedar lance
#

one of the SP weapon gun and firearm idea i have is these 2: MKB42s and STG44s

inland falcon
cedar lance
#

there will a LOT of prototype SPs aswell @tawdry nebula

#

like from land naval and air SPs

#

like me262

Ok, but did you check if the AI had like 85% of contribution to the war during the war?

#

I mean like it show in here. @manic iris

That 92% and 64% of China.

manic iris

i did all the work

and still

And you allies what they had?

manic iris
#

there was a lot of us

#

but little of them helped

tawdry nebula
#

I see.

#

That's what change the peace treaty.

#

When the allies have more war contribution then you.

manic iris
#

what happends if i attack austria hungary thats guartendeed by italy ( my ally)

tawdry nebula
#

They will declare war on you.

manic iris
#

italy?

#

If Italy is in your faction, Italy won't attack you.

manic iris
#

yea im in allies with them

icy crescent
#

Then you're safe.

tawdry nebula
tawdry nebula

They can declare war on you in my experience.

They would have to leave the faction.
Unless the AI changed, they don't do that.

tawdry nebula

Maybe there is a special event I don't know about.
Bigger mods got tons of them.

remote quarry

idk maybe they're left over from the great war or a focus gave you them or something (more likely)

#

your divisions might've started with them and they got phased out

I can infiltratemaxx the Chinermen

then declare and boom capitulation

if i do before Japan takes Shanghai, i'll get to take all the land in peacedeal muahahahaha

#

farming social credits out here don't mind me

what Special projects are good to use?

snow rain
# cedar lance what Special projects are good to use?

flame tank, S tier
super heavy howitzer is really good if you do inf only/special forces
armored engineering vehicles are good too, but not essential

cruiser subs are very good
ahechoic tiles are good too, if you have enough rubber
Super heavy battleship is a must-have for multiplayer navy

jet engines obviously

nukes are fun

cedar lance

Alr thx

all the advisors mao and the gueralla doctrine with mass charge and the 90% equipment capture ratio will mean:

I somehow manage to grab every gun the USSR leaves on the battlefield

You're grabbing the guns out of the Soviet Soldiers hands

declares war on USSR

meanwhile just infiltrating the KMT, so that if Japan declares when
they're fascist I've only gotta hold ports and the bumfuck mountainous north

#

Signal is still good

eternal palm
#

It's still wrong

#

Arguing about "necessity" in sp is kinda pointless because if you go that route, everything is kinda pointless?

#

You can win without any of that

#

Doesn't mean that those things are bad

honest night
#

That’s what I’m saying

eternal palm
#

Necessity implies that they are

#

Which is wrong

honest night
#

Nothing is “needed” in sp but it still helps ofc

eternal palm
#

We should focus more on what's good and what isn't

#

Not what's "necessary"

#

Because that's a very arbitrary measurement

silver eagle
#

Germania rules the waves

snow rain
# eternal palm <@340859534652342283>

don't have much time to argue about it but signal isn't required in singleplayer simply because, wheter you do bricks or meatwall, you won't get memed
that's because AI has no stats, so they can't knock you out fast enough. In the meantime, having more stats paired with coordination from GBP allows you to straight up smite the AI divs that attack

Signal is good, but it's overkill against AI and generally a waste of a lot of IC that could be used elsewhere. There's almst certainly a company you can use with better endgoal

eternal palm
#

Like, if you have green air, and assume you always do, you don't need any support but you obviously don't always have green air

#

So I want to judge things on a case by case basis

#

Knocking someone for using signals is kinda dumb

War Support

tawdry nebula

The Mass Charge is the one the Soviet Union used during WW2 right? I mean the infinite wave of T-34 and so on?

eternal palm

So it's not really a bad use?

viscid stirrup

Please Dont do that

viscid stirrup
eternal palm
#

It's not pertinent if the "mass charge" tactic was employed as actual doctrine by the Soviets. It is just a tactic in the game.

#

Officially, the Soviet doctrine was "deep battle" not related to the one in game

#

We don't know if "mass charge" was part of it

Why?

pseudo raven
eternal palm
# tawdry nebula Why?

Because hoi is extremely unrealistic and borderline rewrites history if you take anything at face value

#

It's not of any educational value to history. It might spark an interest in history but it does not teach history

tawdry nebula
#

I see.

#

Well I honestly love history from years, but I like create alternative timeline a part keep reading things of History tbh CreepAgeDE.

viscid stirrup
#

in the soviet deep battle doctrine, the soviets relied on using powerful tanks to break through the enemy lines, with air and artillery support, then use the infantry to clear up any remaining enemies. the primary difference between deep battle and blitzkrieg is that the soviets aimed to breakthrough in several places, disrupt communications, destroy the disorganized enemy, and continue advancing all simoultaneously. this left no room for the enemy to reorganize, and destroyed large amounts of troops without attempting encirclement, which can be risky

With the 6th Army of the Wehrmacht.

tawdry nebula
#

For example I still have open this page that I'm still reading of the Unryu-Class Aircraft Carrier of the IJN.
https://naval-encyclopedia.com/ww2/japan/unryu-class-aircraft-carriers.php

The six Unryū class fleet aircraft carriers were added in the 1942 naval programme, but only two were completed in time before the end of the war to actually see some service. They were the Japanese equivalent to the USN Essex class fleet carrier, but on Japanese scale.

21% war support , 15% world tension

at that point japan was only in the war to keep some of its colonies

And the CIC just fking died of a hard attack mid battle

#

And French command structure was really convoluted and I could go on and on

#

It was not due to the maginot line that France fell

tawdry nebula
#

It's because France thought that Germany would end like in WW1 as they failed and never listened to Charles de Gaulle warning.

eternal palm

No it's not due that entirely

It's not that simple

So a handful of standard tank divs or mountaineers divs to push, flood the gap with armoured cars

eternal palm

It was good even before

It's not any good though

U could just battleplan and win faster

I usually just do spgs mixed with motorised or the 6/6/6 mountaineer/infantry/spg thing

eternal palm
#

Just replace the mountaineers and inf with rangers

#

Much better

mild mason
#

CNNA is more conservative and MNA is for fascist, UN was the Estado Novo political party and conservative, CCP was more clerical, UIE was more economic based, PCP was and is the communist Portuguese party, US was more Democratic Socialist, MUNAF only wanted democracy, MUD wanted democracy but it was socialist, LDR also wanted democracy but it was libertarian

And you get the same result

Spgs aren't required

slim nexus
# eternal palm It's easier to just make guns though

It’s pretty hard to not get to 0 manpower because of losses if you only make guns as minors imo, it requires much more careful combat, spgs aren’t necessary but they’re probably the most broken division in ncns sp at least from what i’ve seen

And go desperate defense I guess

microing on 3 speed for 3 hours is not faster than battleplaning

#

even if you were winning faster in game time it ain't worth it, and you're not even doing that

slim nexus
#

I’ve never microd my spgs i just put them on the front line with some infantry and do general offensive plan, on regular difficulty that beats almost anything without much issue the only time I can remember where it didn’t was in poor supply desert and right after a naval invasion when I hadn’t gotten more than one port

flint wyvern
#

Is the allowtraits command really cheating?

slim nexus
#

Fought both axis and allies simultaneously with SPGs as a minor, wasn’t that hard, and I’m not very good at hoi4, so for me SPGs seem very good in ncns

just use good divisions and get gun 3

slim nexus

gun 3 is huge

slim nexus

#

gun 2 is ×1.5 the atk of gun 1 and gun 3 is ×1.33 the atk of gun 2

fair horizon
vital cove
#

its a massive difference

slim nexus
#

Gun 3 is 1942 tech right?

vital cove
slim nexus
#

So if you rush it you could probably have it by 1940

#

And then u need to produce it

#

Still slower than spgs i think, both allies and axis capped at end of 1939 with spgs as greece, waiting for gun 3 I don’t think I could do it that quickly

# vital cove which path of greece

Byzantium fascist I usually do, if venezelos is alive for a while u can pretty much cap allies and axis before 1940, once you get turkey cored you have a bit of manpower but it’s still not much

#

The 6/6/6 mountaineer infantry spg works well allowing you to push balkan mountains without much issue, maybe infantry could work as well but im still worried abt manpower cause even with only high hardness divisions for offensive u run out of it easily

heavy vigil
#

theres only so much you can do but just dont overinvest in all units and focus on your offensive divs more

#

having low manpower means you have more IC per manpower to spend (industrial capacity)

#

if both are low you have to cope and do a special forces build which saves some manpower but not as much as tanks/air

slim nexus
#

I only upgrade to 18w when I got balkan cores

#

Cause then I can handle it

#

But thats late game like 1941

#

No it just makes them less likely to get caught in said country

#

Which is why u typically do local recruitment to get soviet born spies in ussr so they don’t get caught instantly

#

Same with china u do local recruitment and get japanese spies

heavy vigil
#

well

#

you shouldnt be fighting strong enemies

#

you could go lower, but smaller units always take more casualties so whatever

in sp maybe if you feel like playing for 50 years

I feel like most focus trees give enough civs, sometimes too many civs so I end up swapping them to mills when building slots are full

It's either
You can get 20 Strat bombers OR 20 intercontinental bombers
For strat bombers you just need the large airframe and put bomb bays on it
For intercontinental I think you need to research better airframes and maybe get jet engines but I'm not sure
