hoi4-general

[lilac ginkgo]

and if you ve got lots of occupied territory it won't go well

[noble garden]

Makes sense cuz I'm Italy and will lose so I'll modify it rq

[lilac ginkgo]

yeah make it a normal batalion

[gaunt garden]

The Balkans were very important in the war,I also hate the border gore of Yugoslavia when capitulated,it should be the realistic map so it isn't so bad, Romania should have a bigger focus tree as well,Albania was also pretty important even tho it was a Italian puppet, hell even the independent state of Croatia is important,Bulgaria is the only nation with a big good focus tree that's irl accurate and has its own stuff

[noble garden]

So one batalion with military police?

[lilac ginkgo]

Well yes but a normal sized one

[lilac ginkgo]

They have to rework everything bro

[gaunt garden]

Yea

[lilac ginkgo]

I mean especially romania and Yugoslavia

Bulgaria and Greece have usable focustrees

Albania doesnt need one

[gaunt garden]

I would just love to play as the chetniks or partisans though,totally new interesting mechanic there,I would want to liberate myself as the partisans and fight the chetniks or be the chetniks and turn into like a military junta or smth

[lilac ginkgo]

Yeah but they probably wont add that

As cool as it sounds

[gaunt garden]

Yeah too complex

[lilac ginkgo]

they could probably instead allow you to like maybe get control of a pixel

[untold cove]

why dont you make a mod for that

[lilac ginkgo]

Then just do border wars and progressively make everything worse

[lilac ginkgo]

I might aswell get into modding bro

[safe wing]

Cut hoi4 leader from NSB

[lilac ginkgo]

I found an app that makes modding 20x easier

[gaunt garden]

I would love to but I would need to learn modding

[misty fossil]

500k gdp per capita

sure

[untold cove]

why is bro so handsome 😭 😭

[lilac ginkgo]

Usually u gotta script it and shit but I found a thing thst makes it very easy

[safe wing]

Because he’s young in 1936 (aged 22 at the time)

[lilac ginkgo]

U just add a name to your focuses,check the requirements,use an ingame icon for it and so on

Its easier than coding it yourself

But it takes time

[gaunt garden]

Could use that one day

[lilac ginkgo]

yeah

its a new thing I guess

[untold cove]

god i wish i could go back in time and marry him

[lilac ginkgo]

someone was kind enough to make a special engine for hoi4 modding

[lilac ginkgo]

are you married

[untold cove]

no

[lilac ginkgo]

so why do you have to go back in time

to marry him

[untold cove]

because he lived in 1936

[lilac ginkgo]

good point

[untold cove]

kind of 90 years between us

[lilac ginkgo]

well I kinda look like that guy

ive got the same glasses but Grey instead

Same hair colour

[ripe slate]

Can you stop

[untold cove]

whats wrong

[gaunt garden]

Democratic Russia having 1 focus tree 😭

[ripe slate]

I was hoping it was one of the Kirill's

[lost dawn]

Could someone give me any tips on how to win this campaign? I am unsure as to why... but my units are losing an incredible amount of equipment and even my mountaineer divisions are unable to break the deadlock on the middle eastern front.

[lilac ginkgo]

Focus on europe first

[lost dawn]

I should say this screenshot is an older one.

But the middle eastern part is roughly the same

[ivory hull]

send your template

[gaunt garden]

Just saw someone Yumi ship with gavrilo princip and having a body pillow of him,I'm Serbian myself but thats too much

[lilac ginkgo]

What's a yumi ship

[gaunt garden]

I think if someone ships themselfs with someone

[lilac ginkgo]

Yeah if you ve got good divisions u can take out europe first

[safe wing]

[lilac ginkgo]

Son europe is gonna die and u wont get any of it

[untold cove]

sis lookin like elon musk

[lilac ginkgo]

Rush it

[lost dawn]

I do not need anything in Europe that I am currently at war with.

I need Yugo, Bulgaria and Albania.

and Italy

[lilac ginkgo]

It makes it easier

take out Europe then the 3 countries you need

[ivory hull]

what is your division template?

[lilac ginkgo]

Then send your whole army to the middle east

[lost dawn]

I have not been able to "research" the special support companies for the mountaineers yet.

[ivory hull]

take out recon out of both

[lilac ginkgo]

This is why

[ivory hull]

and get flame tanks

[lilac ginkgo]

Ur infantry is not that good

[ripe slate]

Damn, no cut democratic figures?

[misty fossil]

39k ic

[ivory hull]

its good enough to hold

[lost dawn]

Very nice idea but I do not have any experimental facilities

[safe wing]

Doesn’t look like it

[lilac ginkgo]

To hold

[ivory hull]

then build one

holy

you want them as early as possible

[lost dawn]

As Greece those things come later. When you've had time to build your industry

[ivory hull]

no they still kinda come early

the earlier the better

[lost dawn]

You cannot start building them in 1936

[ivory hull]

if you have more than a civ then yea

[lost dawn]

and you cannot build them in 1937 or 38 either since at that point you are at war with Turkey

[ivory hull]

why cant you build it?

[lost dawn]

Another dude got scammed

holy shit

[lost dawn]

Because while you are at war with Turkey you only have around 5 factories

[ivory hull]

and?

still build one

[lost dawn]

Most of which you need to buy equipment.

and railways.

I can build them now.

[lilac ginkgo]

You dont need flame tanks in vanilla

[lost dawn]

I have a relatively large industry now

[lilac ginkgo]

The ai is dumb enough that good infantry does the job

[ivory hull]

theyre still very good

[ivory hull]

what is "good" infantry for you?

[lost dawn]

I can spare the industry now.

Although I am lacking mils

[lilac ginkgo]

36/34w infantry with support arty and i guess the other support comapanies

depends

[ivory hull]

what support companies if not also flame tanks?

[lilac ginkgo]

Engineers field hospitals logistics

[misty fossil]

the brits are so poor 😭

[lilac ginkgo]

I personally cant use flame tanks

I would maybe

[ivory hull]

logistics in inf divs?

[ivory hull]

you dont have nsb?

[lilac ginkgo]

I gave you examples

[lilac ginkgo]

ive got no dlcs

[safe wing]

This is real too

[misty fossil]

thats my mom

[lilac ginkgo]

I had some but they removed them from me

For some reasons

[safe wing]

Possibly an Adam hilt type path

[ivory hull]

i dont think dlcs can get removed from you

[lilac ginkgo]

They are gone

[ripe slate]

Its insane how many historical figures you can come across on wikipedia who died by air crash

[lilac ginkgo]

I had the basic ones for economy airforce navy etc and when I reset my pc and reinstalled hoi4 they were gone

I also had the Spanish focustree the dlc one

I know you cant individually buy them but something happened

[ivory hull]

if you bought them they still should be there

[ivory hull]

you can literally buy the dlcs individually

[lilac ginkgo]

Well I mean

I only had a part of some dlcs

[lost dawn]

Could you explain to me how I am going to win the front in Iraq with what I have?

[lilac ginkgo]

like I only had the Spanish focustree out of the whole dlc

[ivory hull]

send a ss of the front

[ivory hull]

you sure you bought the dlcs from steam?

[lost dawn]

They do not have that many units but still, due to the equipment shortages, I am suffering defeats near Antioch

[ivory hull]

brother

your divs have like 20% strength

[lilac ginkgo]

I didnt buy them I got them for free after my one month 7 eur subscription expired

[ivory hull]

ig its manpower

[lilac ginkgo]

I kept some of them

[ivory hull]

ig it was a bug then

[lost dawn]

48% but I see your point

[lilac ginkgo]

Yeah

[lost dawn]

It is manpower but also guns

[lilac ginkgo]

Maybe

[lilac ginkgo]

well maybe then

[ivory hull]

stop pushing completely

[lilac ginkgo]

Fix your economy

[ivory hull]

💀

yea bro

ok

so its cooked

dont push

dont even think about it

[untold cove]

this guy looks like stalin

[ivory hull]

wait till the stockpile is full

[lost dawn]

Iraq is almost capitulated

If I can cap them

[ivory hull]

yea dont

nope

dont

[lost dawn]

The allied units will be encircled

[lilac ginkgo]

his name is John John's

[ivory hull]

you cant lose more equipment bro

[ivory hull]

like genuinely

[lost dawn]

Brother

Look at the bar

[ivory hull]

brother

look at your equipment

[dense skiff]

bar doesn't mean shit

[lilac ginkgo]

fun fact pushing yourself to the limit when you re nearly dead already wont fix shit

It'll get you into deeper shit instead

[lost dawn]

I have 10 equipment purchases being processed.

[lilac ginkgo]

no

[lost dawn]

They will solve my gun shortage

[lilac ginkgo]

God no

[ivory hull]

doesnt matter

dont push

if you want to make it worse

[safe wing]

You mean tsar Jospeh

[ivory hull]

then push

[untold cove]

address me

[ivory hull]

Joseph I actually

[lilac ginkgo]

are you the elephant in the room

[dense skiff]

first person I've ever seen use international market

[lost dawn]

As greece it is incredibly usefull

Because you lack factories at the start

[ivory hull]

still wont solve the manpower issue

just dont push

[dense skiff]

You get gun zero shitters

[lilac ginkgo]

What mobilization law are you on

[lost dawn]

I did already go up to All adults serve

[lilac ginkgo]

oh

well then that must suck

[lost dawn]

Not exaclty

I recently went up

[lilac ginkgo]

How many divisions do you have

[dense skiff]

mobilization %

?

[lost dawn]

It has not all come in yet

[untold cove]

perhaps

[ivory hull]

bro go back down

you only have 8% mobilized

all adults serve doesnt even do anything

just kills your industry rn

[dense skiff]

for future go service then when you stop mobilizing go adults

I had a game yesterday where I ran out of manpower on fully mobilized adults then you go scraping the barrel

[lost dawn]

Going to push Albania once the Italians are gone

[ivory hull]

only push with mountaineers

and get them goddamn flame tanks asap

also

only attack from multiple sides

[lost dawn]

My mountaineers are attempting to hold the line near Antioch

[ivory hull]

with planning

[ivory hull]

where is that?

[cedar lance]

🇷🇺 in april 1986 a explosion at the CHERNOBYL NPP REACTOR 4 becomes one of the worlds WORST MAN MADE DISASTERS

[ivory hull]

you need the mountaineers to push

like your inf will die

just dont even push

in no case is pushing good rn

just wait

[untold cove]

and in 1991, soviet union frickin disintegrated

[lost dawn]

Still going to push. I deem it wise to try an eliminate Iraq. They are close to capping and once I have killed them in the south they will have little supply

[ivory hull]

your pushing across a river too

horrible

[lost dawn]

I am not

[ivory hull]

brother

you are

[untold cove]

address the river

[lost dawn]

Okay. Well that tile yes

[untold cove]

are we gonna continue writing down timeline of russia

[lilac ginkgo]

thats where your mp and guns are

[dense skiff]

have u built up railways

[lost dawn]

A surprise attack by a foreign power? I simply relocate the garrison units towards the closest front

[cedar lance]

sure

[ivory hull]

bro if you keep doing stuff like that

you just wont succeed

[cedar lance]

🇷🇺 the war in ukraine has dragged on for 4 yrs

[dense skiff]

small width is essentially useless, you do 16 or 36w

[dense skiff]

😭

[ivory hull]

but you cant build an experimental facility in 39?

[lilac ginkgo]

2027 the president vladmir vladmiriovichi dies

[lilac ginkgo]

You should only invade it once you ve got everything else secured

Leave it for last dude

[ivory hull]

do you even have an airforce?

[lost dawn]

I've lacked the factories to build one

and since you are having me build experimental facilities now instead of mils

[lilac ginkgo]

[lilac ginkgo]

why do you need port garrisons in normal cities

[lilac ginkgo]

no

[lost dawn]

In truth. I do not actually need them.

[lilac ginkgo]

So then delete them

[lost dawn]

It's mostly for the same reason that I give my armies colours

[lilac ginkgo]

So you have 110 divisions that make your whole country shit just cause it looks cool

it doesnt even look good

its just random divisions

[lost dawn]

Pretty much. Do not misunderstand me. Before the war started I had those same 110 garrison units but I still had more than enough manpower and guns

[cedar lance]

im sad and crying

[lilac ginkgo]

why

[lost dawn]

It looks better than blue red white green pink and orange

[lilac ginkgo]

You re just a low tier ragebaiter

[lost dawn]

I am not a rage baiter at all

[cedar lance]

becus of the chernobyl accident and the people that were concsripted and sent to chernobyl

Glad I stopped doing that at least and made the units semi workable.

[lost dawn]

Solved the shortage

Largely.

[lilac ginkgo]

That's not good

Ur on all adults serve with no mp

Also when you get the Turkish election elect the democrats

[grizzled yarrow]

[lilac ginkgo]

You have to side the democracy yeah

[rich gulch]

Are you sure? By a small pool of unused manpower I do mean like 20k.

[lilac ginkgo]

Thats not gonna cut it then

[zealous lynx]

Bro is it good or not

We got camel tanks

[rich gulch]

why is portugal so shit in this game

[safe wing]

Add two tanks

[untold cove]

there are elephants?

[safe wing]

Camels are fantastic in Rome total war

[safe wing]

More than that they scare horse units

no

[lost dawn]

Should I go to war with Italy now or later?

They are in a weak position

[lilac ginkgo]

maybe never you re not ready for it

Isn't Italy soviet

[lost dawn]

No

Italy is in their own faction

And I am not at war with the soviet union

[lilac ginkgo]

Maybe clean up arabia and Egypt first

[lost dawn]

who is not in any faction

[rich gulch]

the democrats are taking over

[untold cove]

let them be

[rich gulch]

is this normal

[lilac ginkgo]

yes

[untold cove]

if you ever need pp, open decisions tab. you will see kurdish resistance in southeast regions

they will give you either 25 or 50

[lilac ginkgo]

Yea

And it costs cp

[untold cove]

yes

and it sometimes decrease stability

[lilac ginkgo]

by a small amount

[rich gulch]

i have 1000pp

[safe wing]

Democrats

[lilac ginkgo]

demomkrat

[sly venture]

republic if facist

[lilac ginkgo]

no

He ottoman

[rich gulch]

im going ottomans

[sly venture]

oh

It looks the same as USA

[safe wing]

Turkey is medicore tbh takes too long to do anything

[lost dawn]

Despite what this looks like... this is actually good

[lilac ginkgo]

No because usa smells the democrats with c not k

Spells

[lost dawn]

It means Italy lost control over that island

And since I am not in a faction with italy

Once I take the island

It is mine and not returned to italy

[safe wing]

Byzantium is better in eu4 tbh

[lost dawn]

and since I need those islands as cores...

[lilac ginkgo]

Son

[lost dawn]

Byzantium is not real

It is the Eastern Roman Empire

[safe wing]

True

[lilac ginkgo]

Why are you comparing 1000 year old country to a hoi4 formable

[sly venture]

most of the time I make my own faction and just kill Germany to get cores

then kill the allies

[untold cove]

its because of them 70 day focuses

[sly venture]

then the ussr

[lost dawn]

I have my own faction.....

[safe wing]

Eu4 is a better game too

[lilac ginkgo]

depends

its 10 years newer

maybe think about that

[bright forum]

I suck at playing historical Japan, can anyone explain some basic tips?

[sly venture]

bro is in war with all the world

[bright forum]

Without all the damn jargon, please.

[safe wing]

Eu4 is 3 years older than hoi4 though

[lost dawn]

Not really.

[wanton spire]

Yeah my Australia run feels very slow to gather momentum

[lost dawn]

I am not at war with Italy or the Soviets.

[lilac ginkgo]

Son

eu5 is new

[safe wing]

I said eu4 not eu5

[sly venture]

the thing I hate with Luxembourg world conquest is the man power

[lilac ginkgo]

why play eu4 then

when eu5 exists

[safe wing]

Because it’s better

Eu5 is in development hell

[lilac ginkgo]

or you just cant afford eu5

[safe wing]

I can I just don’t want to waste money on it

[lilac ginkgo]

Yeah I know

[untold cove]

hoi5 when

[lilac ginkgo]

we know

[lilac ginkgo]

Never

What would it be about bro

[rich gulch]

why is turkey boring

[sly venture]

why release hoi5 when we can release moreeee 30 dollars DLCs that they know I will buy

[untold cove]

holy operative pull

[untold cove]

well if you want a fun country, try majors

[rich gulch]

i tried all of them

[lilac ginkgo]

ussr

[untold cove]

you can conquer bulgaria before 1938 if you can micro enough

[rich gulch]

and i also hate japan

[fair horizon]

do any of those even matter?

[rich gulch]

i dont see any focuses that give me a war goal towards them

[untold cove]

dont they?

[untold cove]

you have to get down through the focus tree which takes until like 1940-41

[fair horizon]

i never use them for anything besides collabs and just regular spy networks

[untold cove]

just justify war goal

[hard grove]

Can someone invite me to The New Order Discord server?

[lilac ginkgo]

so how do you micro them by 1938 if you reach in 41

[hard grove]

The public invite doesn't work

[untold cove]

i go fascist, i justify war goal

[lilac ginkgo]

Did you invite in the loyalists

[rich gulch]

idk this country is too complicated

[lilac ginkgo]

Top one

thats what I was talking about

Top one brings the Ottoman loyalists back in charge

[lost dawn]

Maybe I did mess that one up beyond repair

[lilac ginkgo]

who would have guessed

[lost dawn]

I am not a bad player though. This was simply a bad game.

I can achieve better like this one ^

Same strategy

[lilac ginkgo]

Free states of europe

Son

[ivory hull]

just dont push with no equipment

[lost dawn]

One moment I have +26k guns

the next second I have -14k guns

[ivory hull]

bad inf pushes

[lilac ginkgo]

Have you checked your garrisons

[ivory hull]

over rivers

into mountains

etc

[ivory hull]

true

[lost dawn]

My garrisons are all topped off

[lilac ginkgo]

With what

[lost dawn]

With equipment

and manpower

[lilac ginkgo]

That can be a problem

What divisions do you have on garrisons

they can take up tens of thousands of guns

[lost dawn]

I tend to forget about that tiny aspect

[lilac ginkgo]

thats a problem then

[lilac ginkgo]

Son

[lost dawn]

Greece starts with their main inf division as garrison unit

[ivory hull]

brother

change it then

[lilac ginkgo]

Its over

Yes

[ivory hull]

so joever

full game

full inf div as garrison

[lost dawn]

Better to use this one then?

[lilac ginkgo]

bro went a full game with half of his country being non cored

[ivory hull]

make a new one with only 1 cav battalion

[lilac ginkgo]

With that garrson

Division

[lost dawn]

Trust

[lilac ginkgo]

and then you were wondering where all of your guns went

I wonder bro

I wonder

[lost dawn]

In this game...

It is also the main inf division as garrison unit

💀

I see

[lilac ginkgo]

You won because of our strategies

[wooden mesa]

can someone send me the peace for our time dlc file to my dms?

[rich gulch]

bri

[lost dawn]

Untrue

[rich gulch]

bro

what is happening

[lilac ginkgo]

Without us you would have died in the Iraqi desert

[lilac ginkgo]

Force attack

[lost dawn]

Not this game

Nuh uh

[lilac ginkgo]

Yes

Its the same game

Ain't it

[silk furnace]

force attack meta goated

[rich gulch]

this is harder than the uk civil war

[lilac ginkgo]

It isn't

[silk furnace]

lure them in

backhand blow

[lilac ginkgo]

Normally you have to rush Istanbul so they can't make it unpenetrable

but just force attack and forget about it

[fair horizon]

Constantinople*

[lilac ginkgo]

Konstantiniyye

[rich gulch]

its not doing shit

[untold cove]

now are we really going to discuss this here

[lilac ginkgo]

discuss what

[rich gulch]

wtf is this ]

[untold cove]

try naval invading

[lilac ginkgo]

im sorry queen

[rich gulch]

idk how to do that

im a retd with navy

[fair horizon]

attacking with infantry over a strait doesnt work well

[lost dawn]

*Constantinople.... clearly.

[rich gulch]

all i have is infantry

[lilac ginkgo]

Thats what it means

[untold cove]

use a port to start with plan

[lilac ginkgo]

0/10 ragebait dude

[fair horizon]

use special forces like marines

[rich gulch]

i put down the naval invasion and my troops sit there like a dumbass

[lilac ginkgo]

son

[untold cove]

you can naval invade with infantry

[rich gulch]

im playing as turkey

[fair horizon]

and?

[lost dawn]

True. But I am not going to try and pronounce your version of the word.

[lilac ginkgo]

its not my version

[untold cove]

they are the same word

[rich gulch]

IT DOESNT WORK THIS GAME IS BROKEN

[lilac ginkgo]

Wait a bit

[untold cove]

sohn you are striking from a strait

[silk furnace]

do u rly want ur 10 soft attack inf w a 80% debuff to do anything??

[lilac ginkgo]

do you have landing boats or whatever they re called

[silk furnace]

honestly

[untold cove]

bruh

[lost dawn]

How do people keep getting scammed like this

[rich gulch]

lmao

[lost dawn]

what a bunch of losers

[lilac ginkgo]

people gkeep getting hacked

[lost dawn]

How does it even work

[untold cove]

maybe pull out from istanbul, let them come to you and encircle them?

[lilac ginkgo]

Idk they click on a link and someone steals their account

[lost dawn]

Rookie mistake

[lilac ginkgo]

I feel for it once

But I realized before it was too late

[lost dawn]

Couldn't be me.

[silk furnace]

thats exactly what i suggested

[lilac ginkgo]

if was

It

[lost dawn]

I've luckily never fallen for such a scam

🙏

[lilac ginkgo]

why would you have an opinion

[untold cove]

sorry i didnt see your message

[silk furnace]

true

[lilac ginkgo]

well same but I noticed seconds later

[lost dawn]

Not about to start getting scammed now

[lilac ginkgo]

well im your arch nemesis

[silk furnace]

[lilac ginkgo]

🇷🇴 🇷🇴 🇷🇴 🇷🇴

[silk furnace]

hell yeah

[lost dawn]

Thank goodness

[lilac ginkgo]

yeah it was my steam account

[lost dawn]

How classic. Posting this flag when we are talking about people stealing accounts

[lilac ginkgo]

im romanian

you racist

you re

[lost dawn]

A citizen of Rome

[lilac ginkgo]

you live in the slums of India buddy

[rich gulch]

this civil war is so stupid

[lost dawn]

I live in a small out of the way village in The Netherlands believe it or not.

[lilac ginkgo]

you sure

[lost dawn]

Pretty sure.

[lilac ginkgo]

what would you do if you had a sim card

[untold cove]

i always dreamt of living in a village

[lost dawn]

I do believe I have one...

[fair horizon]

they'll run out of guns first

[lilac ginkgo]

I mean would you get into selling Sim cards

[fair horizon]

just get some marines

[lost dawn]

No.

[lilac ginkgo]

you sure

its profitable

[lost dawn]

Sim cards seem like a scam

[lilac ginkgo]

you earn rupees

alot of em

[fair horizon]

or give some divs engineers to reduce the naval penalty

[lost dawn]

Sadly... everyone needs them

[rich gulch]

its almost 1941 and i still cant win

[lilac ginkgo]

skill issue

clearly

[rich gulch]

i cant do anything lmao

[fair horizon]

you could also just reinforce meme them

[rich gulch]

my troops are ass

[lost dawn]

Not much use for these "rupees" here in The Netherlands

[rich gulch]

whats that

[lilac ginkgo]

you ll need them back in the old country

[lost dawn]

We use the classic Euro.

[fair horizon]

just attack them with a few units over and over so they cant get org back

[lost dawn]

Romania?

[fair horizon]

or entrenchment

[lilac ginkgo]

wow

nice racism

[lost dawn]

I am not sure what you are saying

[rich gulch]

im done with this country

all my troops are dead

[lilac ginkgo]

The old country is India

[lost dawn]

Oh.

Okay.

[lilac ginkgo]

You called romania India thats quite racist

especially when you re european

[untold cove]

you probably dont have any rifles

[lost dawn]

Romania is an old region

[rich gulch]

yes

and i dont know why

[untold cove]

get some

[lilac ginkgo]

why would I need rupees in romania

[untold cove]

because of rapid assault on your garrisons

[fair horizon]

because you keep attacking and that uses rifles

[lost dawn]

Idk.

[rich gulch]

i have 12 factories on them and im still losing 180 per day

[fair horizon]

attrition too

[lost dawn]

Why did you even bring rupees into this conversation

[lilac ginkgo]

"I ve been attacking Istanbul for the past 2 years I wonder where my guns are"

[untold cove]

you being at war increases kurdish resistance and attacking non stop doesnt help

[lilac ginkgo]

they re used in india

[fair horizon]

you have zero supply and like 20 divs on the same tile

[rich gulch]

aussa is more fun than this shit

[lost dawn]

How is that, at all, relevant to our conversation about Romania and The Netherlands

[lilac ginkgo]

you just suck

[rich gulch]

u told me to force attack

[lilac ginkgo]

our conversation started with india

[rich gulch]

now i have no troops

[lost dawn]

Which you also mentioned

[lilac ginkgo]

skill issue

[lilac ginkgo]

I am allowed to

im closer to India than you are

[lost dawn]

True

[rich gulch]

turkey is shit

[lilac ginkgo]

Physically and mentally you re Indian but geographically im nearer than you

[rich gulch]

china is more fun lmao

[lilac ginkgo]

To india

[fair horizon]

force attack is a meme for the most part, you lose equipment instead of org

[untold cove]

maybe there could be more peaceful ways to become ottoman

[lost dawn]

Considering the context of this... that is very racist.

and untrue.

[rich gulch]

im going back to playing china

[lilac ginkgo]

since when is India a race

[untold cove]

have fun with all these cliques

[fair horizon]

try australia

[untold cove]

"my china is better than yours"

[rich gulch]

holding the japanese line is easier than taking istanbul

[dry sleet]

Aren't romani from india originally?

[untold cove]

you just lost a war to your commanders

[fair horizon]

thats because you ran out of rifles

[rich gulch]

that was the most retrded thing i ever did in this game

[lilac ginkgo]

even if they were im not romani

[untold cove]

sohn im crine 😭 🙏

[rich gulch]

how do i delete turkey from my country selection

[dry sleet]

never mentioned you

[rich gulch]

i'd rather play as palestine

[untold cove]

dont pick it

[lilac ginkgo]

maybe take in consideration that I was the one talking about it??

[rich gulch]

i'd rather play as tannu tuva

[lilac ginkgo]

unless you wanna talk to yourself

[rich gulch]

i'd rather play as haiti

[lost dawn]

[untold cove]

play as a nation that can produce rifles

which you cannot

[rich gulch]

that cancels out china

[trail delta]

Feel like I might wanna build some kinda high castle

[rich gulch]

my rifle production as china is better than turkey

[safe wing]

Do I have to ping moderation again because of this racist conversation

[untold cove]

1984 world

[lilac ginkgo]

no

[rich gulch]

keep in mind i start off with a 40k deficit

[untold cove]

then play as china

[fair horizon]

you do know how attrition works right?

[rich gulch]

i asked one question about china for 5 days and no one in this server answered me

its like no one here plays china

[lost dawn]

I will start a new Greece playthrough.

[lilac ginkgo]

Shoot your shot

[untold cove]

depends on which china you like

[fair horizon]

china is boring

[lilac ginkgo]

Im listening

[lost dawn]

Care to give me some tips before I start?

[lilac ginkgo]

Yeah well dont push constantly

[trail delta]

I was actually directly referring to another dystopian alternate timeline. Looking forward to the German/Japanese cold war

[rich gulch]

i use faction influence to make warlords my subject, but i always lose influence and i cant submit any more

[untold cove]
