It adds to much unnecessary stuff
Typa mod to add a Chinese tribal state with a bigger focus tree than vannila Germany
Pretty much
hello yalls
you could really hit the market and make a name here
would hate it if i was manchuria rightnow
I assume the island has some detail in Road but Im not wasting my time on a tree for it :3
does it?
ive looked up its name on the workshop
it got 9 results
how different
none of them add content besides 2 mods that add generals
and 1 of the two is ai generated
wdym
im trying to play a nation in hearts of iron IV
desperately looking for content
smh
maybe i should ask lily
no it has to be trinidad and tobago
and taking over the US
thats the challenge
youve probably talked to her smh
Not about that
chat im going to play australia in mildawn
shocking
mildawn is like the worst gaming experience smh but good luck
well as long as its something different
heres a suggestion from bane
so are cruisers considered the "battleships" of mildawn?
NOOOOO ITS A GENERIC COUNTRY
no shit because battleships barely exist at this point
well you can make them apparently
I finished the continental US's provinces ๐
Peace deals are so much simpler when you have 100% of peace score. You give your allies their cores, then just annex 448 states for yourself.
Japan has to be the most annoying AI even worse than Italy
why so many
muh lag when divs are going to move through that
You playing china?
why didnt you bisect rhode island
it tiny
Is not that bad ๐
tell that to usa AI that will move a bazillion units for nothing with all the supply and weather calculations in the background
Y'realize weather calculations is for strat regions and not provinces right
casey it was so boring i hated it
i am only getting stronger soviets
lesson to take away is to never trust anyone
each tile modifier is calculated individually
The only reason i played it was for the cool modern planes but it was just 900 day researches
yeah its bad
No as Germany
ive like not played the game at all but from my like 3 minutes of actually playing wow trinidad and tobago sucks
i figured theyd have more things
who would have thought a random ass island nation is not going to be great?
ive played worse
its possible
just damn
ye but that random island legit has nothing to do
its in a globally relevant position
it just sucks you dont have a formable or ticking army xp
the rest is fine
God knows what Japan did then
maybe he annexed dutch early and got annoyed
Its funnier if you think you're talking about australia or nz
Prolly
those are like OP
I can't blame him tho
NO PLANE MIO
That rubber is helpful
turn off AAT?
@fair horizon how do you still feel about that these got away from communism?
Communism marxist zombies ๐คค
A toy without batteries? No thank you
if the soviets got them i garantie you they would be in horrible shape
after a few months
vendrip you know how to play every island nation yes
hmm
Build navy
well trinidad and tobago sucks because you start democratic
Everything else is secondary
which is evil and morally unjust
and also you get no army xp which is bad
and you get no formables which is bad
but you do have some serious core pop
and oil
hot take, democracy doesnt completely suck if you play nations that actually have something to do
That means its navy time casey
(400K core pop)
i like playing democratic sometimes because i turn off all restricting game rules
but thats irrelevant
i was thinking about it
maybe against vanilla ai i can do like sub 3s and theyre too braindead to kill them
but then how to kill usa
Casey navy build ๐
get good battlecruisers, BBs and CAs arent worth it if you dont have the numbers
ahist is probably easier
3 dockyards
not happening
clearly ๐คข
i have gotten a nation 2 battlecruiser with 2 dockyards so do, it,
it has to beat the USN
Yeah
thats not gonna cut it
That would actually 
You underestimate the ai and how badly it uses its screens
the US Navy never gets concentrated enough to defeat great battlecruisers
bleak
i dont have steel
Plus you can just do like torp destroyers to go with them
maybe i invade cuba somehow
then buy it
but that would require an airforce or a large navy
yo hello guyssss
both of which are pretty tough to get
Large navy? nah, one battlecruiser
Which one even is trinidad?
Is that the island on the right side of venezuela?
the one with oil
That doesnt narrow it down btw
I only care about the marxist zomibies, im basically as bad as stalin
Idk lowkey i feel like vanilla doesnt understand leftism tbh
Because they think leftism is when marxist leninism๐
Take every colony despite me capitulating four countries trying to attack the Soviet Union last second to grab some land and also attacking us right after we got the Soviet Union. We were planning to attack them but still.
You know the usual
Us people have no room to talk about japanese warcrimes tbh
why not?
theres only 1 with oil
The middle east
why would you play that
Oil
And thatโs why I hate Japan
real quick question what sabaton song do you consider underrated?
the fact you dont even need ATT to do this
I'm talking about the Japanese AI in his game
Then provide screenshots?
Do me a favour and scroll up in the chat
None of them
Theyre all overrated๐
Just listen to ultrakill music
Or actual historical anthems
Soviet-usamerican army troops werent fighting through rough terrain and whatnot just to hear you listen to some swedish band for 14 year old white kids
Listen to ccp anthems
Hell even the taliban has music
Not saying listen to it but its an anthem
There's "Congrats to all"
Aka the one used in those Clash Royal videos
Listen to
If youll be lucky
Aviamarch
Let it sway
Artilleryman's song
Hell
Go for "and lenin is young again"
My army
Katyusha
Let me think of some more
The people's army?
Through the hills & forests is a good one
The north fleet? (I forgot a lot of songs)
Crew is one family
Through two winters (or through two springs? Idk)
ultrakill music ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ son
Son I'm crine
Dont call me that ๐
10/10 ragebait
Anyways
Like
There are so many better music than sabaton
Listen to uhh
Fdj
Listen to ifa wartburg
Even finland has music
Whats that one polish communist song iirc
for the love of god man just say you hate sabaton thats it
โ๐ผ
sabaton cannot be that bad
People have different tastes in music some people like it some ppl dont
At the end we gotta agree to disagree
ok but like
sabaton cannot be that bad
Nah he's fine to me atleast
how does one hate sabaton's music that bad
Fart
โ๏ธ
Hellur
Hru?
i for example like sabaton but i can also understand people who dont
if you dont like it then say it and stop
Or go on a 50+ message rant about it and waste ur time and everybody else's
if you dont have serious issues in your life you dont do that
โ๐ผโ๐ผ
Glad we agree on this
refitting my capital ships with radar and fire Control system upgrades
Speaking of Sabaton Iโm gonna listen to Lightning at the gates
Based Al โ๐ผ
^ I think people can agree with this
totally didnt steal some states of sweden and norway because they had a fascist civilwar
That colour is beautiful on the map
gotta love that burgundy purple
i wish there were more nations with a purple color sceme
Definitely
i seriously do not know what the hell you are doing smirnov its f***ing august 42
He's just chilling
is that left ussr
Hanging around with the gang
if i remembered correctly its the right because left is trotisky
Not sure
thought it was either kemanev or trotsky for left ussr
got finals at uni ๐ญ
i mean sure atleast he lets me finish the radar and fire control refits on my capital ships ๐คทโโ๏ธ
this is legit getting stupid
I mean best scenario is left & right soviet because I'm pretty sure they are the weakest paths
The ai has like no army
finland btw
Right is either eternal civil war or quick finish
For me they usually fight in Kazakhstan forever
800k as finlands is crazy
Coremaxxing
But as Non Aligned finland
It's actually pretty crazy
fascist gets a bit more
Fascist Finland is fun
I haven't played the game in a while tho I'm waiting for next DLC
soon ever a million
this guy carried my manpower gain
since the start
oh dam i just realised the Kaga must have been through some shit when she fled to me-
Vet
the fact of modding or a specific mod ?
and also this guy now
FINALLY, TOOK YOU LONG ENOUGH SOVIETS.
Atleast you are 100% ready now
wolfgang.. reminds me of Davis Wolfgang Hawke
funny ass story
gotta love the soviets starving
Casualties gonna go crazy
they arent even gonna do anything on the naval front
Soviet navy is so shite either way
ye but the finish starting navy is litterally just 2 coastal defense ships and 4 subs
artillery boom boom
when you play france:
come russia i dare you
Mhm
Consumer goods cooked you
its at 17%
Ez
ah yes because i definetly needed more boni
can this be considered bullying the disabled?
there goes the entire soviet fighting fleet
people are so focused on templates and then i just use like inf brick
i wanna build a LOT of carriers
i united the british isles as scotland in hearts of sandbox as annoying as this mod can be it can also be really fun
It always feels so good once you finally finish your campaign ๐ญ
British Britain Sounds like a nightmare to live in
placed 4 light tank divisions i could make with the tanks i got through focuses on critical areas
inf bricks can actually be really good in most scenarios
especially in holding
no aa
brick
france past 1939 is a beast
you asked for this smirnov
Is that hetalia in your pfp
And also, they aren't
Last Germany playthrough I had, I degloved them alive
Finnish aircraft carrier?
"finish" more like japanese
akagi and kaga
to be exact
need help with setting up naval patrol xd
hm?
what do you seek to show?
the issue
just screenshot it
that would still require me to write an explanation + could not be quite clear
xd
but ok
there are few issues
ye
but it all started cuz a fleet that already was patrolling west of ireland for some random reason decided that it cant anymore
i said it once and i say it again, millions of soviets must die
also idk what the hell japan is doing up here but also thausends of japanese must die ig?
do fleets regain org out of port ?
dont think so
yeah
pretty sure
aslong as you dont swap between missions often
anybody wanna do a quick 1v1
Wish i could
with the commanders mod
FINALLY. I CAN SAVE UP OIL
can someone answer me something? why did paradox remove the old navy battle menu, where the ships moved around on the board and had arrows pointing to what they were targeting
was it taxing on the game or something?
can someone tell me if this is good:starting in 1936 with about 14 factories and increasing to 100 factories by early 1939?
you would think the soviets would eventually get a brain and stop sending its pilots into a suicide mission
WE HIT THE 3 MILLION HURRAY
hello
Hey guys where did you guys buy hoi4 from
Here is the English translation of the plan:
HOI4 Learning Plan (about 7 days)
This is a learning plan for Hearts of Iron IV without watching tutorials, designed to help you quickly understand the basics and start enjoying the game. The plan assumes 4โ5 hours per day and focuses mainly on playing and experimenting, since that is the fastest way to learn the game. ๐ฎ

Donโt pause the game every second โ learn to read the map.
Air power wins wars.
Supply kills armies.
Planning bonuses are extremely powerful.
๐ก Trick that speeds up learning 5ร
After every war:
make a save
replay the war and try to do it better.
is it good schedule to learn to newbie without wathcing yt?
Yippee more cosmetic dlc that shouldโve been in the base game or the dlcโฆ
Why is your pfp the ultimate life drainer twink
The population of Finland is around 3,000,000 or so
That's a quarter of the Finnish population dead
Or so, idk
Why the hell does America have that many troops though
How did you get such a fleet as Finland?
some i got some german and japanese ships for some reason when they capped while not even being involved ๐คทโโ๏ธ
i got a lot more men to throw around
Let me guess, Kalmar Union or Scandinavia?
Scandinavia combined has like, 11,000,000 people
Didn't know that was a formable
How the hell do you even have 10M people if the cores there basically have no people at all
kingdom of finland?
Ya
thats not a formable but a secret path
Ooohhh
keep the guy you had as finland from the beginning and do this which will unlock "the finish throne"
the cores are from another mod tho which allows me to core states with good compliance
how do I unassign all task forces from one fleet except one ?
I have a mod that allows me to core every land I conquered after 2 months of annexing it
Makes playing hoi4 less playful, and fun overall
Especially as minor nations
center of chinese industry far away from the japs
from a task*
uhm. sure Guatemala?
make a faction called "the south american alliance" with random finland
it was removed with the navy rework of Man the guns back in 2018 (iirc)
it was made to be more lisible and cause less issues with multiplayer (desynchs)
wut-
stalingrad feels 10 times worse to take than moscow
and giving a real reason
because it is
Honestly, there might be more to it but it's been 7-8 years
like i am playing all non hist germany
everything between rostov and stalingrad is a supply deadzone
I think they should add it back
(yes am forced to use prussian legacy)
I kinda wish they also had something like it for land battles
Who needs a reformed army?
let me watch the battle take place
Respect to Belgium for helping the mighty Finland
the worse debuff in all that is probably the atk debuff lmao
do you think demo germany is ass?
dunno, never played it
well
if you dont do like me its def good enough for soviets
It's way better than what china got before
without opening second front
sure
bigland
stalingrad right on the egde
If japan fails to deal a decisive blow, they lose against China
The Russians getting flashbacks from the Polish Muscovite war
is poland your ally?
barely got stalingrad
yse
wait, you went democratic?
yes
Also Latvia doing some Livonian order stuff in Estonia
can we talk about yugoslavia?
We don't talk about Jugoslavija
and czechoslovakia?
its demo germany hist
what?
am germany demo
and this is hist ai
btw i cant even make navy i consume too much iron
doesnt look like it tbh...
its democratic germany
it def wouldnt have turned historical with just that
yes but czechoslovakia invading hungary?
they went against us
Jap AI might be worse than Allied AI with naval invasions
so ima have to fight japan possibly
also its 46 for damn sake demo germany gets industry slow asf when you focus on eco growth
@azure palm so guess my biggest issue with demo germany
can I activate an invasion before delcaring war ? will that declare war ?
are mountaineers better for romania in hoi4
im thinking of turning all my infantry divisions into mountaineers
LOOK AT THESE DIVISION STRENGHTS ๐๐
who knew demo germany has no men
ts is my current situation right now its my 2nd time playing as romania in hoi4
pretty new to the game
congrats at surrendering a perfect defensive line towards the soviets ig
ngl even with hundreds of hours am suffering
you doing good
why it says 66 civilian factories one time
but below 38?
ohh, war factories and civilains together
its 46 these damn soviets are killing so many men nation ran out of them
i have no plan to attack the soviets
im a democratic country rn if they attack me ima js try to defend
if you are axis you should be ready
nah not joining moustache man this time
all of that democratic king michael path
Im hella suffering too loll
wanna see somethink
it took me a min to break greece
also not helping moustache man
The war has been won!
also because the lights i had stockpiled finally began to run out i decided that i would produce my own (finally)
Common W
i just wanted to say "hopefully there will not be a part 3"
Bulgaria is my puppet and he started to attack the UK
like 70-80m iirc?
do i just leave bro
thats with civilians
most from China and the Soviets
thats with civilian death
yeah ik
with not too insignificant numbers from poland, germany and japan
so i killed more soldiers than the actual ww2
what a way to play democratic germany
bro what in the war
ngl 1/7th is how many %?
when the ottomans lock in
we almost reached that number
Belarus:
5 million polish losses
@patent thistle see how innocent democracy is
weve killed more soldiers than ww2
a year of progress from japan in USSR
lore accurate japan being incompetent
also i got stalingrad back
i've found a brother, it seems
it indeed is hetalia
btw when does japan get bombed?
I love hetalia
1945
I love how these little gay people love interacting to eachother
And Italy without pants
it makes me wanna be canadian
its 47 its hist where are my bombs
the things I would do to italy
i like the women though because ya boy isn't exactly gay
I like Belarus tbh
she cool
ukraine though
no wonder why Ukraine carried the red army during ww2
traitors will be destroyed
belarus is creepy
btw nation so goated am taking baku
that's why I love her

china is scary as soon as 1942 hits
is that the hoi4 guy
๐
I once degloved over a million Japanese soldiers after declaring on them to reconquer Manchuria
ye
And degloved 1M French soldiers that tried to invade me through French Indochina
jan 41 econ
i degloved 2 million Germans as Czechoslovakia one time
i'd be a Czechoslovakia main but being a Canada main is fun af
I did horrid things to 7.2 Million Americans and 4.5 Million Mexicans as Central America once
wanna see how long its been with demo germany
twink boy
this but brazil
they hit the 4m browskies
me irl
i like hockey and maple pancakes
every single one
They hit 12m bros
BBNO$ is an IDF soldier
whatd this man do?
certified Mossad agent alongside gjorge troyd
my war has been going on for about a year
trash songs
how long yours?
dont listen
what didn't he do
when does historically USSR attack poland
you're Albanian, I won't listen to an Albanian
lalalalalala
I can't hear u
late 1939-early 1940
cause you mentally challanged
its 47
lalalalala can't hear u
what even happens in albania
idk i just like albania
OFCOURSE IN A 7 YEARS WAR IT WOULD CAUSE THIS MANY LOSSES
Albania good countri gets whole world cuz albania good
it was 7 years cus i left afk for 3 of them
albania nuclear power since 1963
i guess twin
Most underrated Allied nation
lets hope my friend didnt put a troll in his mod just to piss me off when i finally reach moscow
he loves to do that
why isn't albania in hetalia though
New Zealand
he'd solo the verse
real
New Zealand Marine strat still busted
just make like 4 REALLY good marine divisions and send them to do britain's dirty work
Australia nz and Canada are like Britain's top dogs since both world wars
the more I read abt the Chinese communists the more I hate them
The rest are either overlooked or spam vs skill
wym you dug in your butt while the kmt fought japan
Canada carrying Britain's fraud ass
Both Nationalist and Communist are horrid people
oh yeah, I personally prefer the KMT over the CCP
Only mildly good people are the Democrats that believed in the three proposes that sun yat Sen established
ye
less trash than the ccp
put me in charge and i'll have the whole fandango sorted out
modern day China would probably get fumbled hard if they were to fight an actual world War instead of a defensive war, especially without nukes
main reason I dont like the ccp is because of the policies and not really comitting to fighting japan
they have the strength, but cmon, the Chinese never fought a real war outside their borders
And when they did, they got fumbled HARD
they have the industry but the industry has no clue what they're doing
China's power projection is also just ass
This
The ccp is basically held together with duct tape and gorilla glue
America has Taiwan, Japan, SK, Vietnam, Philippines
china's navy is kinda just to protect their fishing boats
And their military is ran by a bunch of incompetent douchebags
China's navy isn't acc that bad
Or corrupt generals
1% to cap
Only thing that keeps China from being a fraud is manpower
not really
If a single American division were to land in idk shanghai
100M Chinese soldiers swarm that division
oh a land invasion of china is out of the question
2nd worst idea besides prob a invasion of the US
It'd mainly just be terror bombing of chinese cities
if we kicked up our shipbuilding industry into overdrive it'd end horribly for whoever is on the recieving end
can i somehow make war facotires make "dobra konsumpcyjne" instead civilian factories?
Chinese soldiers witnessing the wendigo upon landing in the appalachian mountains before getting torn apart brutally
yeah
America is just kinda sitting idle
8 American B-52s lost, 109384757382 chinese deaths, result: chinese victory
Every country knows that, you do Not want to mess with America's ships
idk about the political discussion here but yes there is no chance of the us invading china, it can only be defeated thru diplomacy or strikes
Or destabilizing the political party
I mean
The communist party is really weak, especially after the recent discovery of someone sending important information about China's nuclear program to America
with how successful American intelligence is, they could likely pinpoint strike the head of china
I'm either spreading misinformation or brainwashed by the idf
people forget how busted America is
is like a Thanos snap
Dont touch our boats
just because israel runs stuff here doesn't mean the military isn't ungodly
If America doesn't like someone, they could easily snap that mf out of ezistance
i happily touch your boats
I mean yeah, look how pinpoint accurate the strikes are
but rightnow we are conditional allies to say the least
I want to visit the Iowa but unfortunately its not in the midwest
And i refuse to leave the midwest
i've seen the North Carolina
i live on the edge of the Midwest
Ive never seen a battleship irl tbh
whatever this gif is
now we are actual allies because the US stopped being stubborn and let me in its faction
Immediately kicks you for no reason giving you the faction traitor negative
hello yalls
my knowlege of the pacific puts China at a horrible disadvantage
i talked to a WWII veteran who was 96 on there
This is like if God decided to smite someone you don't like
he made it to 100 before passing
they didn't let him shoot the AA guns until it was attacked because he was black
ain't that some injustice
Putting nukes aside, if NK and China and ofc the US don't use nukes, then is mostly sure that NK is cooked, and China might or might be over extended everywhere
laos and myanmar also still exist
Fun fact, they're able to move under their own power but they dont because if it broke they would have to cut through its armor to replace the engine
forgot abt that
although its a joke
only Laos might be able to put up a fight
because they arent going to do shit
Myanmar might as well use the power of friendship to unite the country and fight off China before going back to fighting itself
NK is the biggest joke ever
people talk like the north is big and bad
surprising it still exists
๐ญ
ye
t55s with stalinium
NK has a bigger army than russia
i am pretty sure they still use Mig-21s
slightly more trash than russia's
reminds me of that time the brits trolled the germans that they were being bombed but they only dropped a bunch of wooden replicas
and the russian army is so incompetent that if nato were to invade, they'll probably get pushed to the urals instantly
I dislike modern germany, mainly the nuclear power stuff
didnt NK basically build a new ship which proceeded to capsize the second it was launched?
German nationalist here
yep
yeah there's a lot to bet on that they don't have nearly as much nukes they claimed to have 10 years ago
I had to, sorry
What about it? The refusal to use them and instead burning coal?
I'm a big fan of green energy, but man germany dropped the ball
shutting down nuclear energy because?..
The russian army, and airforce are a literal joke, only mildly good, between a million commas, is the navy
which is still a joke but like
eh
i am not really that mad about the losses, more like the war reps and french agressiveness especially the Ruhr
Soviet reactors blew up because they're SOVIET
RBMK reactors dont explode
and the "natural gaz has "natural" in its name so it must be considered as a renewable energy on EU scale"
this was a real stance they took btw
"Ja ja hanz we need und ruzzian gaz ja"
Economic failure, poor political takes, Afghan war, Gorbachev's failed reforms, and spending most of their gdp on the army
as much of a joke we all think it is, they still have massive stockpiles and millions of men to use against nato
That's what makes Russia scary
They start spamming units everywhere
Russia on paper yeah is terifying
the coal and iron industry in germany got basically imploded with the closure of all "zechen"
when we fight they gon have 10% strength divisions
I highly doubt they have much left considering current reports on the ukraine war but hey, I think we're going far on a funny map game channel
barely held because they all share the same gun
i dont think so, they can easily overwhelm the ill-experienced nato defences with drones, ballistics, and supersonics
someone definitely got shot for that
We've been combating drones in the red sea for almost 10 years now.
not in the numbers that they can actually do, easily 100+ drones in one day
No it didnt capsize, the launching mechanism failed
i dont want to seem pro-russian but its easily underestimating them
Find funny how half of the China-Russia aligned countries exploded after the latest US election regarding the orange man
Drones arent as big of a deal as people make them out to be
still an embaressement
They won't
in numbers, they really can be
Russia is a joke
Could have happened to any country so i dont blame them for it
Are we forgetting the dead hand system?
as a Russian here
Ukraine's frontline are basically infantrymen holding the line while drones keep attacking them and their supply lines
it is a big deal
dude we are talking about the country whichs most modern jet fighter is the Mig-29
And in the "numbers" they're currently being used ukraine handles them well, now imagine if nato fought them. It would be a non-issue
Just seeing the difference from Western countries and russia, Russia has no chance
Russia? 
I always loved making Russia either a competent country or a full actual democracy in hoi4
NK
Also the mig 29 isnt a bad jet
russia has, 2 or 3 Su-57
Russia could've been a democracy, it's sad
Brick
are yall ready for border gore?
argentina iirc still uses the a4 skyhawk
Wanna Stop right there?
until it goes up against the USA
Yes
argentina isnt really on threat of any kind of war
honestly, all countries should unite and form super earth
real
here is some border gore
so we make a huge countryball
Sino American alliance would be so cool
not even that bad
In another Fallout universe:
Accurate poland
demo germany sucks
No polish lithuanian commonwealth territories, send him to osowiec

You're right, give poland more territory
they can be powerful
i approve of this going on US COME ON FINISH THEM
I swear the USA manages to fumble that bag so many times for me
All of them are banned
these idiots still cant finish canada
Woe no supply be upon ye
not an excuse you do have supply but they dont
fine i help after the soviets died, shouldnt take long anymore they are close to capping
that weird china state with a weiner inside the real china is still there though
Rule 2
thats indonesia
Indonesia will into space
ireland
Why are these borders actually good
congrats man
oh f- now i cant puppet the soviets because i am in a democratic faction, -_-
How did you get sampi land as Monarchist Finland?
invaded them when sweden and norway for some reason had a fascist revolution
Kinda wish sampi were playable in hoi4 with like a tree or something
do all non hist germany
very fun
I like forming them in ck3
nah i kinda just got german and japanese ships after they capped even tho i wasnt even involved against them
W
Btw was that modded or is that in base game?
Check if thereโs a mod for it myb
partially modded stuff like colors or for example that i can seize puppet fleets. also the purchase mod from my friend (i asked if this accurance is something new but he has yet to respond)
Take land then release
Through occupation
No puppets are stupid though
does anyone know how the real tag is determined in a peace deal if multiple people puppet the same country?
Crispy ahh map

how does supply work, for example if i play as portugal and own brazil do i need then to guard the ocean to be able to reinforce and get supply? or what if i for example puppet colombia. can i use their supply instead then?
im lowkey carrying operation barbarossa as romania
i beat turkey and the allies at constantinople
and made so many encirclements in ukraine and the caucusus its CRAZY
WHY CANT I SEND A SCREENSHOT IS THE SERVER ON LOCKDOWN OR SOMETHING?
No, has to be your supply
ahh okay
Though you dont need to guard the ocean necessarially
you need connections from your capital to wherever you need supplies, i.e. ports and railroads
yea
how come, they can convoy raid and then my supply dies?
ร
Just kill the subs
Naval bombers/patrolling destroyers set to target subs dunk on ai convoy raiding
gone like magic lowkey
every time i try to load in to my game it crashes why?
might be due to ur pcs power supply or an adapter that u have like a dvi one or a vga
dont know what thta is but is there anythign i can do?
test other games and see if they crash
if they do its because of your pc
if not then try to verify the game files on steam or epic games wherever u have the game
okay
they donโt
how do i do that?
What up
Finallyyy the discounttt thank yall i am gonna continuee playing the hoi4 finallyyyyy๐ญ๐
no coast for you russia
then there is bundle with the most useless dlc's ๐ญ
like cmon
What???
What u mean??
the one for 17 bucks la resitance and battle for bosporus
do you know what bundle would be fire? no step back + by blood alone, air and tank designer
this
.
cold take: BBA aint that good because Italy's nicest path is free
BBA isnt only italy you know?
its the Air designer which is mostly the thing seeked
but i agree with the sentence still
(the italy part)
I dont really care for designers because I know the meta
TF is this and whz did it annex Vichy FRance without war?
Wht do you want nazi imagery in your games
accuracy
I wanna throw up every time i see that damn swastika
we may hate it but its always good to see in the past so shit like that doesnt happen again
Yeah fair
I use it too for accuracy not that I like that government system because it sucked ass
Also the Russian empire flag among others is also innacurate
anyone who seriously liked Ww2 germany is stupid
I use mainly gfx mods on top of vanilla
Exactly imagine liking the 12 year Reich
I didnt
they did somehow
I was gonna go into france but russia went poland before me while I was fighting italy
then allies got in the war and I declared on em myself to get the most out of it
Same for those who like the Soviet Union as well
totally agreed
Anyone who likes totalitarian regimes should think about it himself for a second
Isn't there a hoi4 artbook, can't seem to see it online, would be cool if there is one though
Or like a collectors edition similar to other games
i feel bad for that small faction but they shall be avenged.
also cleaned up sweden and norway btw
About to get hoi4 what should I do
is it normal that i cannot annex them this far into war
i mean germany has got to annex them but we literally took central asia fully almost and passed thro kazan
prepare cuz ur gonna play over 20 games and get wiped by the allies or axis
Ok any tips
It canโt be that bad
Try one month subscription and then you can decide which dlcs u actually want to buy
Ok
be prepared to waste over thausends of hours painting a map.
Whatever you say
I can do this
too many
like if u pass on one thing u wont know the other it depends
Does anyone play the game on Mac?
Ok
What nation should I play
NOT THE POOR MAC ๐
IT LITERALLY TOOK ME OVER 20 HOURS
romania and hungary for sure
i learnt to play on them
Ok
matter of fact im playing romania rn n helped big boi painter take down the soviets
Mac & cheese
Already getting flamed holy
carried ukraine and turkey wars
not meaning to be rude in that way but i dont think the Mac is made for gaming-
The Mac is made to go with the cheese obviously
But ngl ik ppl who play on HP laptops and they somehow run the game better than ppl with PCs
I'd assume a map game wouldn't cause much trouble, as it's a CPU heavy game, and the M chips aren't bad at all
I'm looking for help if you can't then it's okay
how do i verifty my game files?
I'm using motorized rocket artillery in this playthrough
anything but vanilla atp
Vanilla is lame
It lacks ponies
So its bad
This is the new cosmetic capitulation feature
It looks pretty nice with the flag overlay
questioned why i have so many civs. yeah, that explains it
21+5=27
@tulip thorn
are any of the small chinas worth playing
also why cant I take the enemy navy when I cap them
british armored car division starts out in iraq funnily enough
Peak
I'm using rocket engines
It's modded, not vanilla 1942
So we have late game Crystal Engines which pair well with the Supersonic jets
guh
also another question
when was the last italy update
I wanna try italy but I dont have alot of dlc
Italy should be getting regular updates, but if you want more content, you would need its content related DLC By Blood Alone
Yeah
those would pair well
It makes it cheaper because you tend to use tungsten on all other things, and if you pair it with Strategic Destruction, it gets a lot more range
