[deep dagger]

Beat depression and axis is average USA experience

[hard depot]

Britain is not a real country, it is a falsified lie made up by the Anglophones to colonize other nations.

[acoustic wasp]

literally in the middle of a great patriotic war to defend the country
workers strike

[lethal ether]

if u think about it, britain was the one colonized

[acoustic wasp]

what more can one do

[deep dagger]

That‘s why you should ban communism via focus tree

[acoustic wasp]

i am commie rn

[deep dagger]

Whatever you do France should get rework asap

[lethal ether]

can we cancel this guy

[acoustic wasp]

FREE BAGUETTES FOR EVERYONE

https://gif.fxtwitter.com/tweet_video/G-LotRSXcAAnArr.gif

[deep dagger]

Bro no 💔 I thought you were a victim of the civil war

[lethal ether]

bye

[acoustic wasp]

the only nations i played so far are socialist germany, fascist germany, fascist finland, non aligned finland, commie italy, fascist italy, stalin, im just gonna play the remaning majors rn

being commie is fun guys

https://tenor.com/view/me-atrapaste-es-cine-its-cinema-cinema-esto-es-cine-gif-12869046600151364058

the most fun i had was commie germany icl

least fun was ussr

[lethal ether]

ussr is so fun

i love ussr

[acoustic wasp]

pp simulator

[lethal ether]

ure so powerful as ussr

[deep dagger]

Well yes who wants to purge the best generals

I understand Germany vut France?

They can’t even survive with democracy how would communism work for them

[lethal ether]

u already have good industry and can get war economy by mid 36, what else does vro want

[lethal ether]

they share the stupidity

[deep dagger]

Yes I like playing with UdSSR

[lethal ether]

yeah

[deep dagger]

I got the Romanovs Laugh Last achievement

[acoustic wasp]

i mean im not the brightest most pro player ever i cant juggle air and armoured before barbarossa, so i either end up with good armour and no air superiority which is well useless, or end up with air superiority and no attack

both ways i just spam 1023981028938971098307896786876 divisions on the front line, scroll through tiktok until the germans rack up around 9m deaths then just walk into berlin uncontested

not very fun

[lethal ether]

u dont even need air superiority if u dont want to bother just use aa

[deep dagger]

Gng with this industry you can spam medium tank atleast, works fine on AI

[lethal ether]

i usually have 12 divs of mediums by the time the germans invade

[acoustic wasp]

yeah i do spam mediums but the amount of casualties sores my eyes when pushing with red air

[lethal ether]

this is ussr 43 i believe

or 44

[acoustic wasp]

i can field 4 half full armies of mediums by barbarossa but i lose half of their equipment 6 months in and i just gotta wait for them to reinforce while the germans run at me and kill themselves

[willow gull]

anyone know what gun to use light tank recon

[lethal ether]

the

[deep dagger]

I always balanced it out because with air superiority the AI has almost no Chance against you. And even if their army is larger you can just defend first and cause causalities to them. Then you can launch a offensive and most likely win

[acoustic wasp]

idk if im doing the right thing here but im about to find out, gonna bust through the maginot soon

[willow gull]

thank you

[lethal ether]

np ♥️

[solid prairie]

why maginot

[acoustic wasp]

im france

[solid prairie]

oh

[acoustic wasp]

belgium is still alive

[solid prairie]

didnt see that

[bronze glade]

if im not wrong you get debuffs if you attack from fortifications

[acoustic wasp]

i just spam improved small cannon on it icl, then fill it with extra ammo slots to increase breakthrough

[acoustic wasp]

no other fronts to attack from anyway

[bronze glade]

Go around the Maginot

[acoustic wasp]

[bronze glade]

do a naval invasion

[bronze glade]

yes

go around the maginot

or send your ppl to help poland

[acoustic wasp]

mehhh if i fail to bust through it i will maybe

[bronze glade]

if im not wrong you get like 40% soft attack debuff

[ripe slate]

@bronze gladeThis is an English-only server

[acoustic wasp]

germans are already very incompetent they declared on lithuania and poland and got 23 divisions encircled in memel lol

[bronze glade]

i'm speaking english

right now

[bronze glade]

like idk they did germany more dumb i think

last updates

[acoustic wasp]

germany was never this dumb in all the playthroughs i did, idk why they are having brainfarts this one, they spend 2 years in war with czechoslovakia and still havent won, a year with poland now and still also havent won

[bronze glade]

also they can mobilise 5mil ppl maximum if imnot wrong

[acoustic wasp]

and now the soviets declare on poland

looooooool

bye bye poland

aws a good run

[bronze glade]

are you playing with new dlcs

?

[acoustic wasp]

i have all the dlcs yeah

[bronze glade]

i think they can't win czechoslovakia cuz it got update

poland because german ai became dumb after last dlcs

actually they strongly debuffed germany

[acoustic wasp]

when was that update

[bronze glade]

like a week ago

i guess

few days ago

[acoustic wasp]

sadge

[bronze glade]

i don't rlly mind

a sec

a week ago

[acoustic wasp]

and belgium is having a civil ar

war

loool

[bronze glade]

actually you should to use the fleet always

[acoustic wasp]

fascist and democrats

[bronze glade]

if you're playing france

or uk

[acoustic wasp]

dont have enough oil to do that

[bronze glade]

who vs who

[acoustic wasp]

fascists and dems

[bronze glade]

oh

maybe belgium will join axis

[acoustic wasp]

i think switching ideologies as majors curses the game

cuz when i use to go socialist with germany, the brits sometimes went socialist too

sometimes fascist

[bronze glade]

aren't you communist already

[acoustic wasp]

one time the americans went fascist

[acoustic wasp]

yeah i mean in general when you go alternate ideology with a major

[bronze glade]

ah alr

[acoustic wasp]

it makes the game cursed lol

[bronze glade]

actually every party in hoi4 is cursed

[bronze glade]

yes

ussr is my fav country rn

i think

because of the monarchist way

[acoustic wasp]

and now the soviets are fighting the germans

not even barbarossa yet

fascist finland joined the allies

ts is crazy

lmaooooo

fascist belgium won the civil war

[polar radish]

What are some fun focus paths

[bronze glade]

ok ill go sleep

have a good time chat

[icy lion]

romania wasnt in axis btw

also my non histoircal war turned 10-sided

continental system vs axis vs allies vs comintern vs danube conferderation

[acoustic wasp]

man having to micro with red air is very boring

also wth is this

like bruh we are already at war lmao

my army is so booty lmao

lmao?

soviets are so cooked im about to get the blitz of doom in like 6 months

[patent thistle]

F in the chat for me i have to go to work in less then 4 hours and my insomnia refuses to let me rest

[acoustic wasp]

F

[icy lion]

kidna like when us declares neutrality

[patent thistle]

the soviets feel so god forsaken weak most of the time

[icy lion]

in the middle of fighting a war

[icy lion]

romania single handely pushed into soviet territory in my game

[acoustic wasp]

they just signed a peace treaty, im getting my ass handed to me in 2 minutes

[patent thistle]

yugoslavias favourite tactic.

[solid prairie]

is germany done?

[acoustic wasp]

done with what

[solid prairie]

did you get trough the maginot line

[acoustic wasp]

yeah been microing all these divisions for a long time now cuz i got red air

gonna grab that port asap and encircle all these

hopefully

[solid prairie]

^ annex ger

[final raven]

hello guys

[acoustic wasp]

all the eastern front dudes are coming back now pray for me

[final raven]

i need friends to play this game

[untold cove]

why should i establish reichskommissariats instead of annexing it all?

[solid prairie]

are they back

[solid prairie]

reichskommissariate

[cunning crescent]

How do I get japan not to attack me because i took all of uk and france and all its colonies and Ik they will attack me soon Im germany

[acoustic wasp]

so far i havent seen a huge increase in the divisions im fighting im just trying to secure holland rn asap

[untold cove]

disagreed

[willow gull]

so you’re not garrisoning all that i think

[untold cove]

i wish we could core the states after we annex reichskommissariats

[acoustic wasp]

gosh france is so boring

im going to sleep bruh

[solid prairie]

germany dead?

[acoustic wasp]

no we are both very over extended, i trapped like 80 divisions in holland but i simply dont have the firepower to kill them even though they are encircled with no supplies, i have no air to cas them lol tried finishing them off with 16 divisions of this slop but it's all red bubbles

[limpid field]

are motorized rockets underrated

+100 soft attack for 2 battalions

not even fully upgraded

[acoustic wasp]

i wanna try them as soviet union one day

[solid prairie]

did you get puched back or just no progress?

[acoustic wasp]

it's stalled so far i simply dont have enough firepower to keep pushing

im just walking on empty tiles they abandoned

[limpid field]

its actually more fun to use it against the Soviets

[acoustic wasp]

idk where else they're fighting they only got like 50 divisions on me

[limpid field]

you can easily get <10k casualties and do 200k to them

[opaque zinc]

Played that Czechoslovakia mod and got this little encirclement

[solid prairie]

small problems plus no manpower

i will send the kids to the front

[winged tree]

i hate the allies sm its not funny anymore

theres always some BS that happens while you're destroying everyone

fuel or manpower

[misty fossil]

now try heavy spg

[solid prairie]

this island monkeys from their British island keep smashing my navy

[winged tree]

then your navy gets annihilated by 2 british cruisers and france learns how to spam 30000 interception fighters with zero agility

[misty fossil]

heavy spg with heavy howi gives like 140-160 soft attack per battalion

[restive sable]

this is the correct move

[misty fossil]

sounds like skill issue

[winged tree]

overall shit keeps happening

[misty fossil]

just win bro

whats so hard

[winged tree]

where do you live

[solid prairie]

wait a second

NO this italy

[misty fossil]

in your walls

[winged tree]

too lazy to look

read my name

[misty fossil]

ok

[winged tree]

how do i win as germany

[misty fossil]

annex all

[solid prairie]

You have to spam send kids to front

[misty fossil]

theres uh

[thin fractal]

why arent any of my dlcs working

[solid prairie]

and the woman

[misty fossil]

a germany tutorial by bitterteel on youtube

[winged tree]

mass assault of 30+ month old infants

[misty fossil]

bitterteel

[winged tree]

overwhelm the defenses

self propelled 4-year old

put the infant in infantry

[winter fulcrum]

okay so theres 2 key events that you need, first once the "go touch grass" event happens after you ancshluss austria, you have to click "no". then afterwards, once it reaches 1939, it will say "have no life and continue playing", then you have to click yes

[solid prairie]

we have an baguette problem

[hoary glen]

whats the best division template for inf

🆘

[copper sluice]

so why did I have 16k infantry equipment in storage as czechoslovakia with 5 mils on it

[solid prairie]

i cant tell if i can still win or not

[winter fulcrum]

1000 width artillery

[winter fulcrum]

dont worry steiner will clean it up

[hoary glen]

how tf u lose already

stupid

[winter fulcrum]

wait yeah ur right

how tf is this guy losing in 41?

[solid prairie]

Well as you can see i have an small problem with my kid divisions they are not winning against the netherlands

[winter fulcrum]

yk what

im gonna win while in endsieg

[hoary glen]

@winter fulcrum i need help

with division

template

like tank divisions seem to be so useless

[winter fulcrum]

they arent

[untold cove]

bro got capitualted by netherlands

[winter fulcrum]

are you using light tanks or medium tanks?

[hoary glen]

medium

[winter fulcrum]

whats the template look like?

[hoary glen]

stuipd

[winter fulcrum]

this is the infantry division i usually crank out

you can take out AA if you want

[wild bay]

And mountaineers?

[hoary glen]

what doctrine

[winter fulcrum]

i dont really do mountaineers much

[wild bay]

They're so op

U should prove them

[winter fulcrum]

could be any, i use this on most countries that have the industry to do it

[winter fulcrum]

dude i just use medium tanks and inf :\

mountaineers are mostly good if im playing like italy

[wild bay]

What country are u playing?

[winter fulcrum]

germany

but i mostly do med tanks and inf for most countries like bulgaria, soviets, japan, etc.

[wild bay]

Ohh, now It has sense

[wanton spire]

Germany has a massive industry and manpower pool. What do you use for an Australia playthrough 😉

[wild bay]

Let me see ur game

[winter fulcrum]

never played australia

[winter fulcrum]

literally just started

[wild bay]

Oh

[hoary glen]

why tf they hide hitler

[wanton spire]

Crikey, you should give it a go once before the next patch

[wild bay]

Lol

[winter fulcrum]

besides its a germany run so ur probably gonna bring up the industry

[winter fulcrum]

thats odd

[wild bay]

Dude, i wanna do a world conquest with Germany

[winter fulcrum]

alr let me get to like 1938 and ill show you my divisions

[ripe slate]

Theres a DLC that uncensors the portraits, by default everyone has it except German players

[visual musk]

i cant belive i loose free france

[wild bay]

Guys, am i the only who believes the new dlc is bad?

[winter fulcrum]

its a little pointless

like 7 or 8 dollars for a dlc that just reworks ONE country?

not even adds anything to the game just reworks a single country

[visual musk]

dont know what you talk i still have all image

[hoary glen]

im in america

[wild bay]

Dude i would wish never have payed 40 dollars for No compromise, No surrender

💀

[visual musk]

do you check this dlc ?

[wild bay]

Anyone would like play a TGW game?

[visual musk]

tgw ?

[wild bay]

The great war yep

[untold cove]

isnt this too wide in combat width?

[wild bay]

Yep

But It works

[untold cove]

i mean wouldnt a smaller division be more effective?

like 6 inf 1 arty or 9 inf 1 arty

[wild bay]

U didnt leave divisions in the maginot line yeah?

[winter fulcrum]

i mean i like my division more just because you can still crank it out and it has a higher soft attack, defense, breakthrough, and hard attack

[winter fulcrum]

sry abt the ping but can u ban @calm bloom

[tulip thorn]

The scammers are trying new old tricks

<@&846894118219022336>

In all damn channels aswell

[restive sable]

new day new scammer in chat

[fair horizon]

Hello chat im doing navy inspections please submit a picture of your navy so i can get secondhand enjoyment

[woven gate]

"we will never surrender" ahh situation

[wild bay]

And those flags?

[woven gate]

The Fire Rises

it's a mod

[wild bay]

Oh, i didnt know about that mod

[fickle thicket]

they got investigated by the canadian government over extremist content within the mod

[wild bay]

Lol

[winter fulcrum]

oooooo so tuff

[wild bay]

U are doing It great

Now world conquest

[fickle thicket]

why an early war 😭

ruins the fun tbh

[winter fulcrum]

lowk the goat

[winter fulcrum]

it was the brits fault for garuanteeing the dutch east indies

[wild bay]

Really if you wanna do a world conquest u need to play like that

[fickle thicket]

then dont declare on the dutch next time

[winter fulcrum]

omfg my game crashed right after the peace conference

[wild bay]

Now puppets and lets go for France

[winter fulcrum]

or how about you let me play the game how i want and stop complaining about winning against the british?

[fickle thicket]

rip

[fickle thicket]

yeah but its mid '37

[winter fulcrum]

so???

its not like i can challenge them late game?

[wild bay]

Nope, i think that the game is saved

[fickle thicket]

imo ruins the fun outta the ai

[winter fulcrum]

so just the navy okay

[fickle thicket]

no

[wild bay]

Am i the only who wants a dlc of America's countries

[winter fulcrum]

that would be fun

oooo tuff tuff tuff sahur

[wild bay]

Now for France

[winter fulcrum]

not just yet

i dont even have the manpower to do sudentland yet 😭

[untold cove]

just spam cavalry bro

also why didnt you ban other ideologies

[winter fulcrum]

what? wdym

[wild bay]

Sooo do fate of Czecoslovaquia and go for poland

[untold cove]

like ban communism, ban democracy etc

[winter fulcrum]

dont have the political power for it yet

[wild bay]

Norway is on civil war?

[restive sable]

i agree

it'd be nice if the other half of south america that didnt get content got something

[winter fulcrum]

yep

[restive sable]

especially peru and colombia they got some potential i feel

[wild bay]

Yep, i dont know why paradox never have done a dlc with a focus tree for Colombia

[restive sable]

i mean given that peru and ecuador also fight a war in this period it'd be a bit fitting

[winter fulcrum]

alr @wild bay so i usually use this for sp (sometimes mp), and its pretty easy to crank out

i need to get the org up tho

[visual musk]

Free france just kiss my @ss 2h ago when i just need little more to conquest stalingrad

[winter fulcrum]

also heres my infantry (i would have artillery but i need to make some more)

also im not a hoi4 5000 hour master so dont take my word on everything

try to find what works best for you

[misty fossil]

Restart lol

[winter fulcrum]

no?

[misty fossil]

https://tenor.com/view/sealyx-naked-gun-the-naked-gun-facepalm-facepalm-meme-gif-11743768702765397589

[misty fossil]

How dare you say no

[fickle thicket]

this isnt a tank div

[winter fulcrum]

also says the guy who loves navy

[fickle thicket]

no i hate navy gng

18w ass ive just witnessed

[wild bay]

I use 6 of minf and 4 of mid tanks

[fickle thicket]

and what design u usin for the tanks

[wild bay]

On early game

[misty fossil]

i use 1 tank and 1 mot

[winter fulcrum]

best division ever?

[misty fossil]

yeah

[winter fulcrum]

this

again its easy to spam

[misty fossil]

my last game with it

[wild bay]

6 km/h 💀

That's slow

[misty fossil]

22 breakthrough

and wrong mio

and wrong turret

[fickle thicket]

where u gonna get the fuel

your eco will die if u go mefo and trade massively for oil

[misty fossil]

wrong suspension

[lapis snow]

doesn't matter

[fickle thicket]

heavies at base go 4 km/h

[winter fulcrum]

dude i alr have the uk its not like the soviets can challenge me

[wild bay]

U are using the wrong suspension, u need to use christie suspension

[fickle thicket]

[winter fulcrum]

[fickle thicket]

even tho half your tanks gonna explode the second combat happens

[misty fossil]

what about it

[winter fulcrum]

its 80 bruh

[misty fossil]

You tell me

40ic

[fickle thicket]

[bold cave]

@open echo i cant join your vc bro, its full

[misty fossil]

Should we tell him

[fickle thicket]

no

let him figure it out

[misty fossil]

[fickle thicket]

if u cant read ic u shouldnt be going a tank build

[winter fulcrum]

oh shit mb

my pic wasnt loading so i thought it was 80

[misty fossil]

Real

[winged tree]

tried the british alignment path as germany and by 1941 britain bypassed teh non aggression pact i had with them and invited the entire world into the war

the us was also guaranteeing

this is the 5th time some stupid shit like this has happened

im gonna h9ng myself

why cant i just have a normal playthrough

its liek the entire world decides to shit in my backyard the second i turn monarchist

ok rant over

any tips

?

[finite plume]

Typo found, game literally unplayable

[jade parcel]

i wanna see a mod that makes the ai make better peace deals

[winter fulcrum]

js do player led peace conference

[cedar kite]

not my plurnational bolivia

[winter fulcrum]

so far i have this but im lowk getting a lil bored

[misty fossil]

Congrats on capping

How are you at war with the us in 39

[winter fulcrum]

because i declared war on poland

tbh i dont know why that even happened if they werent garuanteeing it

[uncut wraith]

“public opposes rearmament” event is worse than hitler especially when you have high war support

[winter fulcrum]

i lowk also gave up because the soviets started spawning uprisings in colonies and my puppets

while my divisions were attacking the soviets

[misty fossil]

What is going on with ur game

Never heard of soviet spawning uprisings ever

[jovial kite]

I wish there was a way to get the other parties like the other die linke in tfr

If there isn’t a way

[jovial kite]

Wait how do I get debug view

[cedar kite]

before launching the game do -debug here

[jovial kite]

Ah ok

[woven raft]

I just type debug into the console

[woven raft]

Wdym

[jovial kite]

In fire rises idk how to even get die linke whatever the authoritarian socialist one is for Germany

[woven raft]

Gotta lose to fascist Russia

[jovial kite]

Ah ok makes sense

[woven raft]

And to go fascist lose to communist Russia

[jovial kite]

I made the CSTO too strong so I lost in the second war lol

Because I wanted the national socialist path

I usually go to die linke because I like the bonuses

[woven raft]

I honestly haven’t played Germany except like once

I usually only play the US because I like the infantry and vehicle gameplay compared to just vehicles in Europe usually

[woven raft]

What’re the bonuses?

[jovial kite]

The welfare bonuses

I forgor what they are

[woven raft]

Probably like society development up or smth

[jovial kite]

Also changing it to welfare capitalism too

[woven raft]

Thought that was the default

[jovial kite]

It was inclusive was the one you start with

[woven raft]

Ohhh

[jovial kite]

Then you can change it to welfare at the end with SPD or change it very early with die linke

In the party tree

[normal vortex]

Why are you in axis

And italian social republic is in allies

[woven raft]

Like half my games they go apparently I can’t say the party name

[jovial kite]

That happens the ai doesn’t know how to naval invade either in tfr

They didn’t know how to naval invade Portugal

AI can be very incompetent lol

[woven raft]

They seem to know how to naval invade in Russia

[jovial kite]

Russia wouldn’t naval invade Portugal when I went fascist lol

And lost

[woven raft]

Portugal soloing Russia

[jovial kite]

Democrat lost the election in America in that game and went NSM lol

I can’t say the name of the guy but yknow

[woven raft]

I just say burt

Or nsm

[jovial kite]

That was the first time I ever saw the ai go NSM

[woven raft]

Yeah Fr

[jovial kite]

And also the guy losing the election

[woven raft]

I usually play the us tho

[jovial kite]

I usually play Germany

[woven raft]

Sometimes France

[normal vortex]

The German AI is worse than the italian one

How does this happen

[woven raft]

Wait till they declare on Poland next

Also that war isn’t that bad tbh

Small border with France

[normal vortex]

They dont have enough divisons to even do danzig or war focus

[woven raft]

I see

[upbeat tundra]

the german ai got super aggro

how did regno form?

[split bane]

Since Regno is in the German faction I imagine Germany killed Italy too

[upbeat tundra]

cant regno only form from an allied incursion?

[split bane]

No it forms whenever the BOP gets too far to the left when Italy is at war and the attacker is the one who puppets them
Technically anyone can get Regno

Germany, the Allies, Poland, Soviets, Japan

Anyone

[upbeat tundra]

ive never seen regno except when the allies invaded

wait a sec

then that must mean germany did operation alaric

then how did they not have enough divs to sudeten or danzig or war

[split bane]

Probably since most of the time it's the Allies who invade Italy (especially if you play on historical only)

[upbeat tundra]

fair

i do play non hist quite commonly

but yh that sounds plausible

[astral forum]

Got we don't like the statistics with under 250k casualties without expecting it, really happy about that

[fair horizon]

Somehow still capitulates europe

[trim plume]

we got bigger elephants to address bro

[trim badge]

the encirclements are truly encircled

[trim plume]

its literally the "nothing ever happens" mod

[trim plume]

33 filipino divisions is crazy

[trim badge]

idek how they had that much manpower

[trim plume]

glory to the endless filipino swarm ig

[winged hatch]

I got malaysia to form this

[trim plume]

i forgot its because most of their focuses gives bonus monthly pop

like crazy

+20 +10 +30% pop

[trim plume]

like i said

its js the pacing

focuses are good

but the mod does take place during the cold war where if ur a country its js a bunch of nothing burgers

[raven lotus]

I made a submod for it

[trim plume]

oh you a modder

neat

very neat actually

[raven lotus]

yea

[trim plume]

do you only mod iron curtain or have you made other submods on other mods

I have one for equestria at war and vanilla

[trim plume]

show me

[raven lotus]

its the flag of occupied Japan

[trim plume]

ah

[raven lotus]

heres some from my vanilla changes

[loud shuttle]

yo im playing as germany tryna move my navy from france to asia and it says inaccesible region, why?

[misty fossil]

shouldnt heavy artillery have a bit more soft attack? 152mm guns in wt can basically overpressure everything so i guess it can carry over to hoi?

i remember seeing a panther's turret irl being basically shattered by a su152's he shot

[raven lotus]

@trim plume

[misty fossil]

not enough range

[trim plume]

im reading them all bro

[misty fossil]

click the cogwheel next to the fleet thing so it auto selects home base

[trim plume]

you really like democracy

[trim badge]

another one

[trim plume]

atleast some of these focuses have a secret +0.3

[raven lotus]

yes. yes I do

[trim plume]

on democracy

i guess thats a good thing

[loud shuttle]

tysm

[trim plume]

have you created custom ideologies

or stuck to democracy

[raven lotus]

I have no idea how

I would if I knew how, I would also make elections actually useful

[trim badge]

for context: its 1943, germany died back in 42 and russia had the same fate several months prior

hence, the swarm of divisions. that and well...

this map

[trim plume]

makes a lot of sense

election aren't that useful anyway

[raven lotus]

I know how to make them useful

but I need to make more parties first

[trim plume]

baal vs eldritch horror from the darkest son

[raven lotus]

because right now they are more useless then my ex wife

[trim plume]

hey germany i think you need an airforce gng

[raven lotus]

do you know how I add new parties? so its not just the 4

[trim plume]

i don't know

i saw a really funny youtuber with communist allegations do it

or you can ask in #modding

[dusky burrow]

if you're germany in this situation, you should be in amsterdam before any allies could arrive

as long as belgium isn't your enemy too

[trim plume]

Thebenelux are in the faction but the allies wont actually move their divs in

So this is a case of not my problem

Because im the philippines

I hope japan doesnt invade or nun

[dusky burrow]

fair

if germany struggles then yeah germany struggles

[dusky burrow]

how is your navy and army looking

[trim plume]

8 destroyers 12 18w inf with only sup arty

The us has over 2k ships though

[dusky burrow]

yeah you're not getting to japan

hope the us helps you

[trim plume]

My 4 ranger divs can win japan

[dusky burrow]

the problem is that your inf might not even get to japan

[raven lotus]

@trim plume I figured it out

[dusky burrow]

but if you can get beyond that, japan is really easy to conquer

[trim plume]

Gj

[raven lotus]

I am only going to do the major nations for now, because obviously

[trim plume]

Philippines

[raven lotus]

what? they are not a major

[trim plume]

after the majors can you do the philippines

[raven lotus]

I can try

[raven lotus]

I didnt do the USA since well you know, 2 party system

[trim plume]

atleast give em several parties atleast

damn

[raven lotus]

I have an idea

[trim plume]

all liberal conservatives though

and do you have to add the anime leaders

necessary prerequisite \

[raven lotus]

thats just another mod I use

[trim plume]

makes sense

[trim plume]

can't you change the name of the ideology

its all liberal conservative

[raven lotus]

thats just the ideology, the leaders have the sub-ideologies

[trim plume]

still

[cedar kite]

what

[dusky burrow]

sounds about right

[cedar kite]

usa not even at war

[dusky burrow]

Well if I was Britain

I would be naval invading everywhere I could

[cedar kite]

the axis is gone now for some reason

[fair horizon]

Do Australia before the update

[cedar kite]

but they are still at war

[raven lotus]

?

[fair horizon]

I thought you were talking about playing them

[dusky burrow]

vichy was somehow dragged into the war?

[cedar kite]

so reloaded the save and the italian civil war just disbands the faction?

[wind robin]

is it okay to pirate the dlc?

i means its like 300 dollars in my country

[finite plume]

Which one would y'all pick

[finite plume]

You're never gonna get a straight answer asking that because that's essentially asking people "Is it okay if I commit a crime?"

[trim badge]

damn those naval bombers are no joke

[trim plume]

yeah they are no joke

[trim badge]

of all the places you decide to ask that, you say it in the official hoi4 server

[trim plume]

sometimes 20 carriers with 80% of their airforce being naval bombers decimate

[sullen hazel]

bleh...

hallooo

[trim plume]

is it okay to commit murder
says the man infront of the police station

[vital cove]

it is not okay to talk about it here so better delete if you don't want to get a warn

[sullen hazel]

ack

[trim plume]

isn't there a mod

that js

[brittle cypress]

I don’t know what any of these do

But juggernaut probably

From my experience more numbers is always better

[misty fossil]

no way some idiot reported me to discord

hello

[lofty adder]

🏙️

[cedar kite]

never played it

[lofty adder]

You from puero Rico

[cedar kite]

found why, i dont think these decisions check if the state is impassible or not

[dusky burrow]

is that casey's design

[mellow jetty]

will they ever get past 400+ DD's?

their screens that will say

[dusky burrow]

I don't think so

what do your dds look like btw

also separate your subs

[mellow jetty]

its not my dds, its from other nations through peace deals lol (singleplayer)

ooh saw the subs now thx

[dusky burrow]

i see

[mellow jetty]

i dont want my navy at 18kmh

[pine pelican]

wont get past anyway i think

[mellow jetty]

oh

nice

[pine pelican]

400 are so much dd

ai aint gonna do better ships anyway

[mellow jetty]

yea true

[prisma zealot]

fellas am I the only one who notices that there nearly aren't any updates for the base game, but rather dlc only ?

[rustic basalt]

Does hoi need wifi to play

[prisma zealot]

to launch yes but to play no

[rustic basalt]

I see

[prisma zealot]

for single player at least

for multiplayer you need a pretty strong wifi

[grim vigil]

What do you think stalins reaction will be ?

[prisma zealot]

holy encirclement

[grim vigil]

thats like

[prisma zealot]

that the pope now has more divisions than stalin does

[grim vigil]

30 armored division

[prisma zealot]

yes

[grim vigil]

all done by superior ITALIAN forces

this is going on the wall

[lost dawn]

Italy... what have you done....

You've doomed us all

[rustic basalt]

Seems pretty normal for Italy ai

[lost dawn]

Just when I was on my offensive against Turkey

Such a scenario is not winnable.

[grim vigil]

ignore var and tunis (i will get them later)

[lost dawn]

Glorious.

[grim vigil]

italy might be the most fun country in this game

[lofty adder]

What

Tannu Tuva more funny

[lost dawn]

Greece is more fun if you do things right.

And with a little luck

[grim vigil]

italy needs 0% luck

just a lot of prepwork

[lost dawn]

I had the pleasure of invading Japan yesterday as Greece

[grim vigil]

the only luck is associated with vichy

[lost dawn]

And it can easily snowbal into something more substantial

The focus tree is kinda bad though.

And it absolutely sucks that you have to fight an early war against Turkey and Romania if you want any chance of a good game.

Turkey is not that bad... but Romania often joins whatever faction is currently the biggest and strongest in Europe

If you try using a naval invasion against Romania they push you back into the sea.

If you try going through Bulgaria they often get guaranteed by much more powerful nations.

[snow dagger]

Did a couple of Japanese divisions come and introduce themselves and give you directions to Tokyo as usual?

[lost dawn]

Yes

And I politely told them to dig themselves a grave.

[grim vigil]

the royal navy is GONE

[lost dawn]

Uhm.

That is a minor naval victory

[lofty adder]

What about usr

[grim vigil]

ahhh the US navy is busy with japan

[lofty adder]

Ussr

[grim vigil]

and the USSR has nouthing

2 more carriers

[lost dawn]

I turned the Byzantine Empire into a colonial powerhouse.

And we butchered France

[grim vigil]

this warms my heart

[lost dawn]

Seeing France rot? True.

It is a sight for sore eyes.

[lofty adder]

Less likely to start world wars?

Oh wait... that was Austria.

[jade ore]

and THEN it was germany

[lost dawn]

Both were Austria.

[jade ore]

oh you mean hes from austria

ok

[trim badge]

i dont know what happened, but germany did germany things, died and turned into a democracy, then became facist AGAIN, joined the faction fighting the faction that defeated them last time

and now theyre dying again

[jade ore]

is there a way to be in a multiplayer game by yourself running 2 instances with different mods

on the same pc

[lost dawn]

What is it that makes Austrians cause World Wars...

[lofty adder]

No

World wars started only Germany

Germany is war state

Who want revenge 3 time

[lost dawn]

🤨

[jade ore]

well one got assassinated the other was just not very nice

[hexed portal]

Hmm.. Success?.. I don't know guys, still seems like they're putting up a good fight to me. What do yall think?

[snow rain]

#historical-multiplayer
#alt-history-multiplayer

[ripe slate]

That border gore cant be counting a success 💔

[hexed portal]

I'm just gonna let them handle this area LMAOO

Less I have to worry about defending the better

[jade ore]

yea ur gojnna lose ethiopia so quickly

[wraith gulch]

alt-historical

[jade ore]

maybe i gave the soviets TOO many buffs

[hexed portal]

If I just don't call any of them into war with me it'll be fiiiiiiiiiine

[jade ore]

you still hold eritrea and somalia?

[snow rain]

I meant you should ask for that there

[wraith gulch]

yeah

[hexed portal]

Was gonna pass them off to some of the puppets

[jade ore]

oh alr

[atomic grove]

why would u even want to defend ethiopia instead of having puppets there that u can still access

[jade ore]

because why cheese the war

[atomic grove]

theres only a supply hub in ethiopia and eritrea

and harar and aussa

sure u could take british somaliland

but theres basically 0 resources in the horn of africa

and 0 factories too

its also another front that you have to hold for a long time until you get to sudan from egypt

u can also establish italian east africa for less border gore

[hexed portal]

True, going without it just lets me have a bit more freedom with focuses early on haha

Is the border gore actually a bad move? Or is it just cause it's border gore lmao

[sudden thistle]

Meh u get like 3 or so from Ethiopia

[heavy vigil]

it gives more factories

[sudden thistle]

Maybe 2

[heavy vigil]

more guns too

not good guns

but guns

[atomic grove]

ok probably but u get more from ur focus tree

[hexed portal]

mmm gotcha gotcha

[sudden thistle]

Why would u do Ethiopia focuses

[atomic grove]

you will probably get those 3 factories late game

and by then, you would have hundreds

[atomic grove]

i meant the italian industry tree

[hexed portal]

Enough factories to make it a genuine consideration?

[atomic grove]

i prefer to not establish italian east africa

IEA doesnt core anything

and the smaller ethiopia countries give more divisions overall, which probably arent that great, but u can use them for port garrisons

[heavy vigil]

its free

[heavy vigil]

its AOI tag

[atomic grove]

yeah ik

[heavy vigil]

africana oriental italiana

[atomic grove]

but js in case if he doesnt know that

[heavy vigil]

i think

[sullen hazel]

in yall opinion..

[heavy vigil]

idk i dont speak italian

[sullen hazel]

what do you think the philippines naval tree is lacking..

[snow rain]

Nerfs

[heavy vigil]

its their only powerful tree

[atomic grove]

buying ships without having to be fascist

[sullen hazel]

only powerful?

hm.

[atomic grove]

hispanic is good

its just very rng

[heavy vigil]

well like

army wise

political is seperate

[sullen hazel]

hey guys

the navy tree.

so someone called it shit

[lofty adder]

Hi

[sullen hazel]

someone called it good

[atomic grove]

navy tree gives a lot of buffs for navy to philippines

obviously

[lofty adder]

How you get moderator are you from dlc company paradox

[atomic grove]

but the only problem is that its hard to make a lot of ships

because you're the philippines

u dont have a lot of civs nor dockyards

[heavy vigil]

yeah cuz the eco, political trees are bad

but your army is even worse

[sullen hazel]

very interesting

[misty fossil]

Paradox moderators are paid 200k us dollars a year afaik

very well paid

[sullen hazel]

still

what do you guys think will happen if it where to be expanded...

[heavy vigil]

not me

[atomic grove]

we can buy ships

hopefully

[heavy vigil]

nothing would change

army still bad

economy still bad

no resources

[sullen hazel]

like literally nothing?

oh joy

[heavy vigil]

not really

[sullen hazel]

https://tenor.com/view/isla-plamemo-plastic-memories-gif-7700208966856627788

[atomic grove]

philippines is just in a shitty position

[heavy vigil]

the philippines have a lot of issues and few of them are navy related

you can take the entire USN with a focus anyway

[sullen hazel]

bleh

but still

i was hoping that someone does expand its navy

[heavy vigil]

your issues are army, research, resources, general industry

your navy tree is good

[atomic grove]

i dont think so

[heavy vigil]

but you still struggle with the rest

[atomic grove]

like

[heavy vigil]

you can do navy only

as philippines

thats fine

you just dont have anything else that fundamentally is needed to be strong

[atomic grove]

ur army is kinda shit until u finish the army branch

[heavy vigil]

your position is bad

[atomic grove]

because of all the debuffs

[sudden thistle]

“Your issues are everything except navy”

[heavy vigil]

takes too long also

[heavy vigil]

yes

[sullen hazel]

I see..

[atomic grove]

yeah thats the thing

[sullen hazel]

hm

still

whats the major issue about the historical focus

[atomic grove]

u stay in a shitty position

u are about to get invaded by japan in a few years

ur army sucks

u have basically no industry

and only 1 mil

[heavy vigil]

airforce also sucks

[atomic grove]

and u dont border anyone either

[sudden thistle]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1401563044231778305/1436030054198018171/attachment.gif

[atomic grove]

and ur also a puppet of america so u get even more debuffs

[heavy vigil]

no thats fine

you get no debuffs from it

[atomic grove]

im pretty sure being a puppet makes it so u get less recruitable pop factor

[sudden thistle]

Since America is goated

[atomic grove]

or something

[sudden thistle]

🦅 🇱🇷

[heavy vigil]

only as a fascist puppet

you can read the debuffs

colony puppet doesnt have any

puppet and integrated puppet give away factories

RK gives factories + less manpower

[ember vine]

Liberia world conquest

[heavy vigil]

supervised government gives nothing but autonomy

takes nothing also

japan puppets just give eco

like read

[lofty adder]

What

Fasxism

[heavy vigil]

puppet of fascist nation

[lofty adder]

Get manpower buff

[atomic grove]

i thought that applied to every ideology

[lofty adder]

Give

[heavy vigil]

no

[atomic grove]

ik about those

[heavy vigil]

it gives less

[lofty adder]

Puppet is reichkomissariatio🇩🇪

[sullen hazel]

hm

should there be a national rearmament focus

where it mostly focus on building military factories

hmm..

[atomic grove]

the philippines doesnt have an industry

[sullen hazel]

yeah but should there be one

within the army focus

because that would be interesitng

[wind robin]

Rate my puppets

[atomic grove]

there already is

its the entire army focus branch

[sullen hazel]

bleh

alright fair point
