[upbeat tundra]

oh holy shit thats a nice flag

[tepid saffron]

3x more than what i have

[upbeat tundra]

SON

ARE WE SERIOUS

[tepid saffron]

tf u expect me to do

[upbeat tundra]

put the men into armies instead of lumping them into one?

plus that general and fieldmarshall suck

did u purge zukov or something?

[tepid saffron]

so you expect me

to sit there

a good 5 minutes

micro managing generals against ai

[upbeat tundra]

yes?

im sure @fair horizon would agree also

[tepid saffron]

its all 17w infantry champ

[upbeat tundra]

putting 745 divs in one army group is just

[upbeat tundra]

have you EVER played soviet union

36 width mass mob

[tepid saffron]

not even meta anymore 😭

hop on the game brother

mass mob is dogshit now

[upbeat tundra]

says the guy lumping everything into one army

[tepid saffron]

loud and wrong bro

[upbeat tundra]

754 to konev

konev aint even a good general

[tepid saffron]

you literally dont get the general buff 😭

[upbeat tundra]

did you purge rokosovvsky and zhukov or something?

[tepid saffron]

are we trolling?

[upbeat tundra]

you do get the general buff

[tepid saffron]

no u dont i have 754 units in one army

[upbeat tundra]

and thats the problem

poor konev

having to manage 754 units

no wonder u have 9 million casualties

[tepid saffron]

konev is loving it

[tepid saffron]

do we want to talk about historical soviets?

[upbeat tundra]

are you historical soviets?

[tepid saffron]

idk am i bro

[upbeat tundra]

ohhh your an eu4 player

that checks out

[tepid saffron]

2k on hoi4 500 on eu4

loud and wrong

[upbeat tundra]

eu4 player

means someone who has played eu 4

and you have played eu 4

[tepid saffron]

talking about some 36w mass mob 😭

[upbeat tundra]

worked fine in a game i did last night

36w mass mob is atleast better then 754 units to one general

[tepid saffron]

and i say again

LOUD and WRONG

[upbeat tundra]

are you projecting?

seems like it

[coral gorge]

?

[upbeat tundra]

36w mass mob is a lesser sin then 754 units to one guy

like bro

[coral gorge]

what,

I do 3000

[tepid saffron]

my brother in christ

[tepid saffron]

like nobody agrees with u

[upbeat tundra]

whatever you say man

[tepid saffron]

okay 36w mass mob man.

[upbeat tundra]

okay 754 units to one general man

[tepid saffron]

something basically everyone does ):

[misty fossil]

I dont

[fair horizon]

WHY DOES LETTING SOME LAND IN POLAND GO DROP ALL MY GERMANY CLAIMS?

i feel like i never get the good part OF 50 PERCENT WAR SCORE

HOW DOES SOMEONE WITH 12% GET MORE LAND

[upbeat tundra]

demoralization

[upbeat tundra]

ur playing a minor right?

[tepid saffron]

but my point still stands a lot of people do

[misty fossil]

Yeah

[misty fossil]

Say that again

[fair horizon]

@upbeat tundra

i would say i was a major

i would also say i had 40-50% of the war score

[misty fossil]

How did you lose 2.6m people

[fair horizon]

battleplanning because i was lazy

[tepid saffron]

us ❤️

[upbeat tundra]

rokossovsky is directing divs and zhukov is battleplan

[fair horizon]

tbf idk even how tho because germany had lines 1 div thick

[misty fossil]

Did you use 20w line inf

[fair horizon]

36w

[misty fossil]

Air?

[fair horizon]

yes air

[misty fossil]

Oh i have 0 idea then

wth

[tepid saffron]

why is your org so low

[upbeat tundra]

yeaaa 36width mass mob

[fair horizon]

not mass mob

mass mob gross

[tepid saffron]

im telling u mass mob sucks now

either grand battleplan or superior fire power

[upbeat tundra]

its mass mob trust

[fair horizon]

mobile warfare 🥰

[tepid saffron]

SON

[upbeat tundra]

blitzkreig

[tepid saffron]

know i know why u have 2.6m losses from germany 😭

[upbeat tundra]

i wonder if they ban that one swiss strat in MP

[fair horizon]

and china

dont forget china

also dont forget germany had 12 million losses to me :)

[tepid saffron]

yes because we're fighting china too

[fair horizon]

[tepid saffron]

[fair horizon]

I make panzers for war -> I go to war for tungsten -> I need tungsten to make panzers

[sharp ginkgo]

about to try defending against barbarossa for the first time ✌️

[fair horizon]

stuff on naval invasion support should be protecting the convoys THEY'RE ESCORTING

[sharp ginkgo]

they don't??

what does it even do i've never used it

that's what i assumed it would be

[fair horizon]

lowers the enemy stats

but its always funny when 3 battleships just sit there and let stuff attack your convoys

[bronze needle]

imagine your country gets called "civilian factory" lmao

[lethal ether]

i would recommend sitting behind the dniper for the first time

so you kinda get the hang of it

[fair horizon]

that threw me for a loop

chat look how cool my navy is

[bronze needle]

is this navy tuff or nah

[fair horizon]

very tuff

[digital aurora]

i mean you might want a little more repair and support ships but other than that this is good, i also can't help but notice you have no submarines

[fair horizon]

i honestly have no clue what they do tbh

[fair horizon]

submarines are lame

[digital aurora]

Yeah true, even as the soviets i try to build a "decently" sized surface fleet

[bronze needle]

arent they tuff against convoys type shi

[fair horizon]

no subs are not tuff at all

[bronze needle]

not even convoys?

damn

:(

[fair horizon]

you could do cool pew pew battleship surface raider

or stinky poo poo underwater coward ineffective submarine

[late wharf]

love this definition

[fair horizon]

thanks paradox

[bronze needle]

who is that yo

may i have some context

[rich canyon]

Is communism strongest ideology because of less restrictions and liberated workers?

[lean comet]

Yes

[misty fossil]

no

liberated workers when 2 collab govs

[sharp ginkgo]

been about a year since they declared, basically 4:1 casualties to the germans ❤️‍🩹

also romania and hungary have barely pushed, if at all

[fair horizon]

so what the heck do these do anyways?

[bronze needle]

they just chill over there :3

[fair horizon]

then chill they shall

[grave sonnet]

Throw the German scum out of Soviet Lands ☝🏻

[grave sonnet]

Just put them up and sac them so you can bait a navy or sum

And destroy it with Naval Bomba

[fair horizon]

i like this fleet :)

how do u lose 300k men when your enemy hasnt even lost 35k bro what

[fair horizon]

well the emu riders and kangaroo boxers took over france like instantly

[static creek]

I have to go in 2 hours, not worth it

[bronze needle]

[untold cove]

they're doing 30 cas damage and i'm still defending tho :P

allies managed to invade italy a year early too lmao

[misty fossil]

insane div

[snow rain]

Why would you use 3
Why wouldn't you get some useful support companies if you're not going for cheap divs

[misty fossil]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjHqg_YHs1E

its from this video

[snow rain]

It is defo not OP

Cost the same as 3 9inf supp arty aa div
Does the exact same thing as a 8inf 2aa supp arty, aa, logi but cost twice the price

If you're not gonna stack stats on the tank there is no point adding them to inf, wheter it be sa, armor or brk

[lapis snow]

youtuber falls for their own bullcrap yet again

[grave sonnet]

No bro

Ts not it

[untold cove]

i need some advice on south america

im attacking brazil with 48 divisions of rangers

special forces doctrines complete

[heavy vigil]

https://tenor.com/view/dog-hugs-puppy-dogs-love-you-gif-17012656

[bronze needle]

mf you already have the entire world lmao, the rest of south america shouldnt be hard

[untold cove]

i cant push brazil

[bronze needle]

attack them usually with guns and tanks and airplanes

[untold cove]

https://tenor.com/view/drake-notebook-gif-20708336

[bronze needle]

start invading elsewhere then

argentina should have lots of plains

the rest of america is jungle or mountain

[mellow mirage]

is this a good med tank design?

[grave sonnet]

Use Howitzer

[mellow mirage]

in which slot?

[prisma steppe]

use medium cannon

[prisma steppe]

howitzer is overrated

yeet the armor, use rivited

get christie suspension

[grave sonnet]

Why?

[prisma steppe]

yeet the mg and replace with fuel tank

[heavy vigil]

no

but its not the worst thing ever

i would mostly swap to riveted armor

[mellow mirage]

how do i improve it?

[heavy vigil]

and change the cannon and lmg for 2x hmg turret

[prisma steppe]

the non-existence of hard attack kills the tank, aswell as the lack of breaktrough(tho this is debateble)

[heavy vigil]

(secondary)

ofc howitzer gun is better

[grave sonnet]

I use ts

[sharp ginkgo]

well that was surprisingly simple

[heavy vigil]

self propelled artillery role makes you need 20% less tanks per batallion

so click it

[heavy vigil]

useless to show an image without explaining as to why

[prisma steppe]

add armor for breakthrough to counterbalance from the howitzer

[grave sonnet]

True ig

[sharp ginkgo]

soviet europe is now a reality, basically the whole axis became soviet puppets and i basically gave the allies everything else

[prisma steppe]

change class to medium tank aswell

[heavy vigil]

no

self propelled artillery role is just better

[grave sonnet]

No?

[prisma steppe]

did they buff the class a whole?

[heavy vigil]

yes

[prisma steppe]

finnaly

[heavy vigil]

they use 2 combat width and 40 tanks per batallion instead of 50

so its just better

theres no downside

[grave sonnet]

Only downside is that they use more supply

[heavy vigil]

well you get less breakthrough

[prisma steppe]

i thought i was dreaming when my marines with "support" light spgs (2 battalions) were crushing the russkies

[heavy vigil]

supply your shit if you use tanks or dont use tanks

tho rn in meta tanks suck

afaik

[prisma steppe]

didnt spgs take 3 widths?

[heavy vigil]

but idk man i havent played in a month

[mellow mirage]

smth like this? sorry im not rlly the best at hoi4

[heavy vigil]

used to

[misty fossil]

no more

[heavy vigil]

no

[misty fossil]

what

[heavy vigil]

no need for fixed turret

the csg was fine

the extra fuel is bad

the main gun heavy machine gun is bad

[prisma steppe]

https://tenor.com/view/sonion-gif-4370030053602687111

[heavy vigil]

put it as a second secondary turret

on the fuel drums

[prisma steppe]

bros trolling us

[heavy vigil]

and change the gun to csg

[ivory hull]

use this

[heavy vigil]

nah hes trying

dw

[marble ore]

BRO

[heavy vigil]

he doesnt have howi 1 so its confusing maybe

[marble ore]

I LOST

[prisma steppe]

nah i mean if you go over stats you see what gives stats

[marble ore]

I USED THE ARTILLERY THINGS

[misty fossil]

?

[marble ore]

AND I BARLY ADVANCED PAST MINSK

[mellow mirage]

nah not yet its in the research rn

[heavy vigil]

you have high expectations of hoi players

[misty fossil]

what artillry things

[prisma steppe]

well not enough arty then

[misty fossil]

dont tell me you did artillery only

[marble ore]

i didnt use tanks like u guys said

[heavy vigil]

just use dudes

infantry

research gun

[misty fossil]

https://tenor.com/view/ricolino-scolari-gif-25352670

[heavy vigil]

research production

ignore big year red number

make gun

make inf larger

battleplan

[misty fossil]

inf only isnt as beginner friendly as you think

[heavy vigil]

ignore artillery fr

artillery tech is for tank module

[misty fossil]

show your templates @marble ore

no support arty??

[heavy vigil]

what do you need templates for

if you wanna win the most braindead way as germany

[prisma steppe]

we require more soft attack

[heavy vigil]

get hess, research gun with support MIO

[prisma steppe]

we require more super heavy arties

[heavy vigil]

whatever time

make guns

make large inf div

aggressive battleplan

[prisma steppe]

org anti-maxxing

[heavy vigil]

also make mils

[misty fossil]

i have no idea how you lost then

[prisma steppe]

show whole template

[misty fossil]

i mean your template in the game

[ivory hull]

whats the rest of the template

[prisma steppe]

(please dont be whole template)

[marble ore]

the rest was motorized trucks

[misty fossil]

dont tell me you didnt put any mechanised 😭

oh

hm

no air?

[heavy vigil]

stop cropping screenshots when asking for help

is what ive been saying for ages

[marble ore]

stop

[prisma steppe]

mech, mot >>>> cavalary

[misty fossil]

mech > cav > mot

[prisma steppe]

if troop dont use fuel it better

also larp factor

[heavy vigil]

amphtracs > mech > camel > elephant > cav > motorized

ish

[prisma steppe]

the weak(the german mechanised division) should fear the strong (12 combat width cav from tannu tuva) (in the siberian wastes)

[prisma steppe]

where biciyle?

[cold mist]

why is japan in the "hardly anything sevres" achievement and not greece and the armenian provinces i guess

[prisma steppe]

also dont elefants get armor through india focus?

huh

casey you seeing this

@heavy vigil

[misty fossil]

must have been the wind

[prisma steppe]

we need to remove image perms from new individuals

[marble ore]

bro then how will i send my template

[prisma steppe]

also add a #dont-post-here channel where bots get catched

[misty fossil]

this

[mellow mirage]

okay so just to recap: what should i be putting on this thing

[marble ore]

what if they cant read english

[marble ore]

no do not make this

[marble ore]

this made me lose to ussr

[prisma steppe]

look at stats and let the larp flow in your veins

[heavy vigil]

ok i was gonna show this

[ivory hull]

yea your bad, its a good tank

[heavy vigil]

@prisma steppe gun and cav only stats

[cedar lance]

hello casey

[misty fossil]

its a good tank yeah

[heavy vigil]

32w

[marble ore]

LMAO I beat the ussr everytime untill I used it

[misty fossil]

you probably messed something up

[ivory hull]

ok idc you messed it up

[marble ore]

nope

nope

[misty fossil]

and ur not showing us any screenshots

@marble ore

[marble ore]

your spg artillery is stupid bro

[misty fossil]

just dump some images here

[marble ore]

wait

[prisma steppe]

black ice, tankettes + cavalary is greatest division template the estonian country has ever seen

[heavy vigil]

ok cuz you dont use good gens and dont supply it

dont use it then

[prisma steppe]

(gets annexed by soviets)

[marble ore]

I did

[misty fossil]

there are a lot of variables when it comes to playing a tank-oriented game

[heavy vigil]

did you use manstein XDDD

[misty fossil]

well in fact you have to build your entire economy around tanks and planes

[heavy vigil]

worst german general in game

unironically

[cedar lance]

@heavy vigil hello casey long time no see

[marble ore]

i used this

[heavy vigil]

hi

[marble ore]

no?

[heavy vigil]

idc what you used for design

[sweet hollow]

why cant i send air volunteers to spain as bulgaria??

[heavy vigil]

show general and div in field

[cedar lance]

wassup

[prisma steppe]

we need to remeber, the larp preceeds the stats

[marble ore]

i dont care what u care about

i used frieddrich nietzsche

[misty fossil]

none of you are contributing to this discussion

[ivory hull]

send a screenshot of the situation in game bro

[heavy vigil]

i wanna help out bro

[marble ore]

alright

[misty fossil]

hell stream it even

[heavy vigil]

show whats useful

not design slop

[misty fossil]

what

[prisma steppe]

500k guns to the eastern front supply deadzone

[misty fossil]

stream it if you can

[lethal ether]

such a flex

[mellow mirage]

and whats a good template for a normal med tank div?

[misty fossil]

no one uses med tanks

[marble ore]

i mean I take moscow then I just quit the game

[misty fossil]

i use heavy tank destroyers in vanilla and heavies into MBTs in eaw

[ivory hull]

so you didnt beat the soviets at all??

[grave sonnet]

Heavy tanks on top

[marble ore]

no i have

but usually I just rush moscow then stop playing

[prisma steppe]

based eaw player

[misty fossil]

https://tenor.com/view/tiger-tank-ww2-national-geographic-documentary-gif-16228136

[prisma steppe]

i belive in ac and tk supremacy

[misty fossil]

me and the bros mobilising to be wingmen for our homie's date or something

[lethal ether]

so you didnt beat the soviets

[prisma steppe]

if browski builds one panther i can build 50 t-27, thus winning the argument and the war

a tankette for every soldier

a tankette powered by human hand - imagine the possibilities

[marble ore]

situation so far

[lethal ether]

stop cropping screenshots

[lethal ether]

show the full screen

and divisions

otherwise we cant help u

[marble ore]

💀

[lethal ether]

you have even cropped your division template dude

[ivory hull]

dude just press f12 and send that goddamn screenshot

[marble ore]

ok

[lethal ether]

he HAS to be ragebaiting

[heavy vigil]

yeah ur just not taking the supply connections and hubs

[lethal ether]

idk but i can bet that he doesnt have air either

[heavy vigil]

5 speed? battleplan is what it looks like

[misty fossil]

that's not helping in the least bit

just stream the game bro

[lethal ether]

if i stretch out my beliefs even more i can bet he doesnt even have aa

[heavy vigil]

dw im good at guessing

hm i see

[lethal ether]

zoom in bro

[heavy vigil]

yeah i wouldnt use those tanks for earlywars like that

theyre very poorly suited

best to get guys out with guns to fill width, get CAS since ussr air is bad

[prisma steppe]

does somebody have a building slot mod that only unlocks more slots then there are in vanilla later in the game?, not at the beginning?

[lethal ether]

didnt he say he invaded in 1940?

[heavy vigil]

idk im not one to judge

looks like early war

no czechs

[lethal ether]

but he said he invaded in 1940

[snow rain]

I don't know of any but theoritically, you could simply modify the code to just increase the max factory buff you get from industrial tech
should be simple enough

[lethal ether]

^^

who deleted it bro

[heavy vigil]

well i saw it

[lethal ether]

💀

[heavy vigil]

he didnt have czechs so he was doing early war stuff

regardless of ussr stuff

best to get guns and CAS

german airforce dominates earlygame tech wise anyway

[untold cove]

german territory increases

[prisma steppe]

nah i mean one where you have like same factory slots as vanilla, but as you get modded tech you actually unlock more slots, i run into the issue that ai builds 50 factories in one state and no in the other

[lethal ether]

1940 is earlygame?

[prisma steppe]

korean - finnish hyperwar part 2 electirc boogaloo

[snow rain]

AI bulk builds, that's perfectly normal and you should too

[heavy vigil]

no but he looks like he started wars in 37 bro

it doesnt matter

you lose your prep

stop focusing on useless things XD

[lethal ether]

u can only know by asking

[prisma steppe]

yeah but luxembourg havin 30 factories lags the game, or denmark having 120 in '39

[heavy vigil]

nah you can tell

[snow rain]

they shouldn't have nearly as much

did you enable the "ic" command per chance ?

because that affects all countries. Even the AI

[prisma steppe]

sadly they do, modded is just that way, but it only happens whene more building slots are enabled

[snow rain]

I highly suspect that building slots aren't the issue there

[heavy vigil]

nah ai runs out of build points

[snow rain]

what mods are these

[prisma steppe]

funni mods

i think the main causes are better laws and better ai

[snow rain]

if you mod your game, expect the mods to change how the game works accordingly

[prisma steppe]

i know i know

but thats why i am asking how to change the factor of building slots globally

or must i change the regions to lower versions?

[snow rain]

I think you're trying to fix an issue by creating another issue tbf

[prisma steppe]

i just want to make late game eco bigger, while preventing the early game scaling

maybe ill just add some construction speed mofifiers

the inability for people to read is crazy

some people can tho

[frank estuary]

Gonna gain 156,000,000 core population in 10 years.

[prisma steppe]

if the number is negative its more funny

im getting ragebaited by this mod

[fair compass]

its 4% world tension..

[lethal ether]

it says i need 1.14 and when i switch to 1.14 it tells me i need 1.18

[fair compass]

i need 10% to invade

[fair compass]

just play on 1.18

isnt like its gonna crash cuz of 1 minor map detail

[lethal ether]

yes and it tells me i need 1.14

[lethal ether]

it is

[fair compass]

then dont play the mod

wait for the guys to fix it

[lethal ether]

i dont think its their fault

[fair horizon]

then change back to 1.14

[lethal ether]

and if i do that it tells me i need 1.18

i already tried that

im getting ragebaited i swear

[prisma steppe]

why do hyperfactions get created so often

like ts is not fair

[fair horizon]

join them and take them down from the inside

[prisma steppe]

i am already in a faction with the italians

[lethal ether]

can anyone help me bro 😭 🙏

[prisma steppe]

at least ill get all my required lands

[fair horizon]

the mod author

[prisma steppe]

thats the outdated version

[lethal ether]

okay which is the new one

[fair horizon]

did you try subscribing and unsubscribing?

or the other way around rather

[lethal ether]

[fair horizon]

its worked for me before on EAW

[prisma steppe]

you'll need to reinstall

sometimes the mod is broken

[heavy vigil]

[round pivot]

have u tried winning?

[fair horizon]

yes and its working well but my computer does this thing called being old

[prisma steppe]

nvm they had no divs and spawned in non core territory

[fair horizon]

and it doesnt like the few thousand divs moving around

[round pivot]

[heavy vigil]

have you tried ballistic missile nukes

[fair horizon]

no ive tried supersonic fighters

but i need to do the justify person

so i can declare on everyone

i also took over the british faction

i did build strat bombers this time though casey i can nuke someone for you if you want

[prisma steppe]

(this emoij remind me of the follow your leader adolf meme)

[lethal ether]

this time im on 1.18

[lethal ether]

here i switched to 1.14

[prisma steppe]

just ignore the warning

[lethal ether]

i tried

it crashes

[sharp ginkgo]

just spent like 2 hours post war researching and cleaning up the borders on this historical soviet game where the war ended like a year earlier and was a way more decisive soviet victory

i think this is a pretty decent alt history

[lethal ether]

balkan confederation:

[sharp ginkgo]

its supposed to be that one project the soviets were looking into doing, combining parts of the balkans into a federation

there were doubts about it becoming an autonomous rival to the soviets iirc and it was eventually scrapped when the Tito-Stalin split happened

a year earlier with way more soviet influence and i could see it working out perhaps

[manic iris]

what r the odds of my puppets being independant from me

[prisma steppe]

shit was not as joever as it seemed

[fair compass]

this looks cursed

[prisma steppe]

browski, its never cursed enough

[fair compass]

bro

i demand teschewn

and this shit happens

huh??

the forces comparison feature is such a lie bruh

"We are stronger"

the humble red bubbles

[prisma steppe]

if i add mech, or any other non tank, that adds armor, to a inf div, would it count as a space marine, or does it need tanks?

[lethal ether]

a space marine is just a made up term if it has enough armor then do whatever u want

[fair compass]

DUDE

MY ALLIES KEEP GOING INTO CIVIL WARS

FIRST AUSTRIA

NOW MEXICO

😭

kill me

[vapid cradle]

this game cant be real

[prisma steppe]

i mean 4v11

additionally in forest where tonks dont perform well?

also zhukov got more larp-powah and medals

[dire cove]

What is the hardest achievement in the game

[prisma steppe]

30 minutes of polish hell

[dire cove]

Already have

[prisma steppe]

probably one of the wq ones

the afghanistan & ethopia got really hard ones

[dire cove]

What wq I haven’t played I. A while

[prisma steppe]

iran too

[vapid cradle]

shi tanks lowk useless against ussr

[prisma steppe]

tanks with no cas and shit stats, i mean of course they wont work well

[vapid cradle]

why shjit stats

w8

[prisma steppe]

idk, low breakthrough

probably also no flame-support

[grave phoenix]

your base stats are fine its just u having shit combat modifiers

[prisma steppe]

remove speed, add flames, add recon rangers

[cedar lance]

hello yalls

[vapid cradle]

why would i add recon rangers it makes my kmh 6.2

[heavy vigil]

fix this bro

[prisma steppe]

that too, but thats isnt required

[grave phoenix]

u want flame and armored engi in ur tank div as support companies

[grave phoenix]

yeah bro speed matters

[vapid cradle]

whys it bad gng

[prisma steppe]

if you cant push what does speed give you?

[grave phoenix]

u snake 3 tiles and have 0 supply on barb into no speed anymore

nice speed

[prisma steppe]

speed is only useful if you have enough to outrun enemy tanks by a wide margin

[heavy vigil]

gotta kill the enemy before speed matters

[clever shuttle]

[prisma steppe]

12-15 kmh

[fickle thicket]

replace the damn dots (i forgor what it called) and use easy maintenance

[vapid cradle]

i got like 19 tank divs

+4 coming

[vapid cradle]

what easy maintenance

[fickle thicket]

id add 2 more mech to bump it up to 36w

[fair compass]

im gonna break my monitor bruh holy shit

[prisma steppe]

browski do you have air support?

[vapid cradle]

yh

[fair compass]

why does my hungary run do nothing but shoot me in the foot

actively

[fickle thicket]

u get it from 2nd tier of maintenance companies

[fair compass]

im just suffeirng

[hallow pulsar]

L stats

[heavy vigil]

last 2 are same (bad) div with different modifiers

they matter

[winged field]

and they say shakespear died

[prisma steppe]

this is incomplete

[hallow pulsar]

like 2k hard on a td ggs

[prisma steppe]

reliability matters in combat

[clever shuttle]

yeah

[heavy vigil]

bro did not read the bad part

it was the most expensive div i could make at the time, its just to highlight how modifiers make and break divs

[fair compass]

bro

i dont even have a navy

nor any dockyards

💀

[fickle thicket]

then get shit from the soviets

[hallow pulsar]

nah casey you get battle planned by kongou line arty mass mob

[heavy vigil]

sure

[fair compass]

me when 70% world tnesion is needed

SOMEHOW ITS ONLY 20%

all of this

is somehow 20%

[fair compass]

20 goddamn percent

[vapid cradle]

is this better

[fickle thicket]

yes

[fair compass]

im gonna lose my goddamn mind

[misty fossil]

atp just do 8 medium spgs and 2 heavy tds (with high velocity cannon 3)

[fickle thicket]

why did u call in ur puppets

[heavy vigil]

no cuz ur terrain modifiers suck

fix the terrain

[vapid cradle]

how??

[misty fossil]

support comps

[heavy vigil]

rangers, armored assault engineers, flame tanks

[fair compass]

do you think i can deal with them alone??

[hallow pulsar]

like matinence company in the big 26

[fickle thicket]

yes u moron

just request forces from em

[atomic grove]

request divisions

[fair compass]

they can reject that.. 👀

i tried it with austria

they said "Fuh nah"

[atomic grove]

no they cant

unless they for some reason have strangely high autonomy

[fair compass]

romania is just a meatgrinder for me

[fickle thicket]

then dont push

[fair compass]

then what do you want me to do? mr knowitall?

[fickle thicket]

defend until u have offensive units that can push

i.e mountaineers, marines

rangers

hell tanks if u can afford em

[fair compass]

i dont have any of those

i got tanks but no manpower to make divs

[atomic grove]

raise conscription

[fickle thicket]

what conscription law u on

[fair compass]

i barely got PP so i cant raise anything

[fickle thicket]

then wait for pp

hold until then

[fair compass]

aand my sapnish ally just capitulated cuz portugal decided to ruin my game by going marxist or communist

[fickle thicket]

they cant touch u

[vapid cradle]

im compeltely restarting the supports, can smn tell me the most optimal groups

[fair compass]

doesnt matter

they still ruining my life rn

[smoky burrow]

yo whats the best tank medium or heavy

[fickle thicket]

look up meta builds

[atomic grove]

go to a previous save atp

but this time

dont call in ur puppets

[smoky burrow]

cant u just type one word bruh

anyways

[fickle thicket]

it aint one word

[atomic grove]

once u do js immediately transport a lot of divs to hold spain

[vapid cradle]

like this?

[atomic grove]

spain is as far as i know the only way u can do anything

[smoky burrow]

ty

[fair compass]

im genuinely about to capitulate romania tho

[smoky burrow]

yo is it just me or beating the soviets got extremely harder with the no compromise no surrender dlc

before dat i just agressively battleplanned and it worked

[fair compass]

OMG WHY DO I BARELY GET ANY WAR SCORE

WHAT THE HELL

[atomic grove]

but can u actually do anything about france and portugal?

[atomic grove]

cuz u called in ur puppets

dont call them in next time lmao

[copper linden]

deadass gonna kms becuse of this game

[smoky burrow]

what happened

[fair compass]

dont gotta make fun of me cuz of it bruh

[atomic grove]

im not making fun of you

im telling u that u shouldnt call ur puppets in

because not only do they take war score, they also gain autonomy

anyways just go to a save before spain got destroyed

so that u can hold there against france and portugal

[patent thistle]

lmao

[atomic grove]

idk how else ur going to be able to do anything to kill france and portugal besides keeping spain or invading germany and belgium

[vapid cradle]

can smn send me a good flame tank template

[vapid cradle]

and should i make them using the worst light ntanks possible?

[cedar lance]

i wish the sturmtruppe unit was a combat battalion

[patent thistle]

sturmtruppen were specialised units meant to infiltrate trenches, so it does make sense that they are a support battalion

[cedar lance]

alr

im gonna add em as a combat battalion in my hoi4 mod

[patent thistle]

is it about ww1 or 2?

[vapid cradle]

is this good for sup company?

[cedar lance]

it will have stuff from 1900 till 2065

[patent thistle]

they were only really used by germany tho the west didnt have that specialised unit

[cedar lance]

alr

[vapid cradle]

how good is ts

[patent thistle]

chief, we have a navy

[winged field]

could be better if you would replace all tanks with spgs

[vapid cradle]

spg?

[winged field]

also replace light flame tanks with medium

[winged field]

you literally have it in your design in last row

[vapid cradle]

this a good one?

[vapid cradle]

oh

[misty fossil]

no

oh my god what is that

[winged field]

ig its fine but you dont need that many fuel drums

[vapid cradle]

i cant find any templates

[winged field]

also why fixed structure

[misty fossil]

um

[winged field]

jsut do normal 3 man turrest

[misty fossil]

im lowkey tired otherwise id help you sorry

[vapid cradle]

please?

every tempalte i search is outdated

asf

[misty fossil]

fine

let me boot the game up

[vapid cradle]

ty

[cinder ice]

800 casualties Vs 240k soviet casualties 🙏

[vapid cradle]

also should i make the flame tanks like basic or up to date

[misty fossil]

just keep it basic

no need to upgrade the chassis

[vapid cradle]

what abt the speed tho

[misty fossil]

go down concentrated industry and you will outproduce any losses due to attrition or combat

speed sucks

i make my tanks at ~6kph in vanilla

maybe somewhere around this

cant get better than that really

just never switch production line so you dont lose efficiency

[vapid cradle]

reliability dont matter?

[misty fossil]

(unless if ur switching out a component)

only matters if you take attrition (mountain, marshes, snow, jungle, etc.)

[vapid cradle]

is this finally good?

[misty fossil]

replace maintenance with field hospital, and mot recon with light tank recon

reliability doesnt matter by the time you face the soviets

what country is that?

[vapid cradle]

germany

[patent thistle]

what the hell just happend here-

[misty fossil]

replace the 8 tanks with 8 medium spgs and the last two spgs with either 2x towed aa if you dont have air supremacy, or 1 htd and 1 med spg)

why do you have a soviet tank moel?

[vapid cradle]

no idea

[patent thistle]

hehe.

[cinder parrot]

I’m crine bro

[misty fossil]

why

[cinder parrot]

4.3 km/h is insane

[misty fossil]

@cinder parrot

speed isnt important

just uh

push

[cinder parrot]

It is

[misty fossil]

otherwise have fun with 10% reliability

[cinder parrot]

I don’t have NSB so I just max out reliability and engine

[misty fossil]

oh

fair

[cinder parrot]

The max I get for lights is 14.3 km/h

[misty fossil]

eh

its sp

anything works

my throat hurts

[cinder parrot]

These damn strikers

Just let me invade Crimea

[safe wing]

https://tenor.com/view/nuh-uh-beocord-no-lol-gif-24435520

France be like:

[cinder parrot]

But that’s ok

I have this thing we call “Toolpack without the errors”

(Annex)

[patent thistle]

chief, we got a landing

[cinder parrot]

I love operation Sealion in HOI4

I can win WW2 and control europe

I refuse to add Japan to the axis

[opal nymph]

They hardly ever join Axis

[cinder parrot]

I never add them because I know they get nuked twice and cause me to lose

[opal nymph]

How?

You are a major

If they cap, you are still in the game

[cinder parrot]

Here’s the thing

The US navy can crush mine with pure numbers

[opal nymph]

Yet you sealioned

So you aren't at war with the US

[cinder parrot]

Sure I accomplish Plan Z

[opal nymph]

Because you sea lioned in 1940

And the allies capped

Therefore, no US war

[cinder parrot]

I do it like 1938

[opal nymph]

Even better for you

No US war

[cinder parrot]

Probably 1939 if I decide I hate Poland

[opal nymph]

How do you play Germany?

[cinder parrot]

The US I also try to get the Silver Legion to coup

[opal nymph]

I do a 39 Poland war and finish off allies in 1940

[cinder parrot]

Industrialize immediately

[opal nymph]

Oh, you dont even have la resistance

[opal nymph]

Like all games usually

[cinder parrot]

I only have bosporus

[opal nymph]

Interesting choice of first dlc

[cinder parrot]

Also

As Germany I never secure air dominance

Naval is more important

[opal nymph]

Well, do you use the base air designer?

Also Germany can obtain air dominance semi easily

You just need to make sure you actually upgrade your planes

Because if you dont, the AI uses planes that become better than yours

[cinder parrot]

I generally just get max refineries sometimes because I can’t trade with people as the Nazis

[patent thistle]

we are in korea 200 years early fr fr

[opal nymph]

So, where is the problem with the air force

How many factories do you have on air

As much as I enjoy navy, air is more important

[cinder parrot]

My navy gets the oil

[opal nymph]

Do you not trade for oil?

[cinder parrot]

I can’t when fighting the uk bro

[opal nymph]

Have you heard of a land route to Iran?

Or the Soviets?

[cinder parrot]

Also I did this to the UK

After I won

[opal nymph]

Neat

But how many factories do you put on planes

[cinder parrot]

Their Asian colonies got independent

[cinder parrot]

How much of an atoms mass is unused?

(99% of it unused)

[opal nymph]

Sounds about right

Thought it was 95%

Oh wait, we aren't talking about fission reactions

Just the atom itself

[cinder parrot]

I put like 2 factories at max

Out of the hundreds I have

[opal nymph]

Well

No wonder you lose the air war

[cinder parrot]

Sometimes I can get over a thousand mils

[opal nymph]

Neat

[cedar lance]

Ey jon

[opal nymph]

I usually achive all my goals before then

[cedar lance]

wassup

[opal nymph]

ye but historically the partitions happend 1703

[quasi osprey]

As germany how big of an army should I get for ww2?

[patent thistle]

prussia doesnt even have silesia yet

[patent thistle]

at the very least a full field marshal with a few tanks

[quasi osprey]

ok

[cinder parrot]

Ok

[quasi osprey]

if I dont want to deal with tanks will mechanised be ok

[patent thistle]

ye that works too just something that has speed

[quasi osprey]

ok

[quasi osprey]

My main opponents will hopefully be just Poland and the UK as France is normally not a problem

[patent thistle]

bruh bro is doing the paradrop strat
