Title.

No but genuinely, not even pro youtubers use it or anyone like that

Torpedomaxxing and spamming them out seems like it could work in SP anyways

Just bought no step back, which Ive wanted for a while. Been watching random YouTube video tutorials, and have seen this layout. Which DLC is this? No step back?

This focus tree really needs an update.

What fool does the mustache man take me for?

Please half the entire manpower in the game for everyone except russia.

Kind regards,

definitely not Stalin.

this was the result of a historical run as communist sweden that went very non-historical very fast, poland gave danzig instead of war, germany murdered the baltics, belgium wasn't invaded until like 1942, russia somehow had a generational lock in and held the germans in polish land the entire time without losing more than about a million troops as well as naval invading italy and stealing the puppet from me (I was like three tiles from capturing rome), greece somehow survived the entire time and never lost more than thrace, and the uk annexed specifically austria for some reason during the peace conference

all this happened whilst me and my small communist bloc of denmark and norway sat and murdered millions of germans on the eider river for like a year and a half before going for the capitulation of the axis

Poland stronk

I play Germany nd m stuck idk how many times i tried to invade them , always lose either my paratrooper die in Sky or i move my inf than see them die .

I'm starting to think to just ignore it and go for ussr , or build strong navy nd go for it later , ( it's 1940 the moment m trying).

Idk how i even managed to invade them my last game I guess was poor luck.

Just like UK not defending France or Allies guaranteeing everyone after 38 ?

Even when Japan succeed to get all of China and then its half part of the USSR, it always ended up invaded by the USA and become an Ally puppet ( with all the former Co properity sphere following ) after USA does the historic island to island invasion.

But if you side with Japan, a few submarines or some divisions to defend their home islands are enough to hold the AI back, even with minor like Philippines or New Zealand.

To sum up, if left alone, AI Japan doesn't defend its home islands properly and seems to deliberately leave its flank exposed.

So, is it due to some script or AI modifier ? Or does the AI just suck at Navy there ?

Today I bring to you, all the German starting leaders of most ideologies. Some of them you probably know, but a few are very very special. There wont be a path for all of them but a few will definitely get their batch of content.
Rotation will take place of some leaders (e.g. if the DDR doesnt preserve their system the socdem party will switch to the SPD)

//

A first look into the 1990 All-German Election

//

This marks the beginning of content for the finally reunified Germany. Helmut Kohl is eyeing for his fourth term and a fast reunification while his Social Democratic opponent Oskar Lafontaine opposes a fast and uncontrolled unification. The result is not yet decided but in a historical perspective, Kohl has gotten his fourth term.

The SED, the dictatorship party of the DDR, has reformed under new leadership and under the banner of a democratic socialism, with an attempt to shake off the old mantle of dictatorship and become a proper power in the new Germany.

If you got any feedback I will listen to it all!🇩🇪

I’ve heard things from using 10w, 15w and 18w infantry with optionally with ENG+AA. Ive heard of org cycling and that it has to be done by hand because the AI is bad at managing that and having to manually pull low org divisions out as well, but I haven’t been able to find a tutorial explaining that. Against other players how do you hold the line so they can’t take the tile assuming you have contested or green air? For example as France holding against heavy tanks.

First time playing ironman, first thing I got. I was playing as Italy - Cristian Democracy, and got this after I couldn't beat Romania, because Bulgaria wouldn't join the war😭.

Had this happen in my game after the yalta conference

After 3,700+ hours of HOI4, I swear that sound has permanently damaged my brain.

I could be peacefully managing my divisions, building factories, or just enjoying the game, but the SECOND I hear that naval invasion alert, my fight-or-flight response kicks in.

Instant pause. Maximum zoom out. Checking every single coastline like my entire existence depends on it, and 90% of the time, it's just one suicidal British division trying to land in the middle of nowhere.

And the worst part? It doesn't even have to be my own game. I could be casually watching a HOI4 video on YouTube, and the moment that sound plays, my brain immediately goes into full panic mode. For a split second, I genuinely feel like I need to pause the game and defend my coastline, even though I'm literally just watching someone else play.

I swear I could hear that sound in real life and instinctively reach for the spacebar.

Please tell me I'm not the only one. 💀

I want to get used to playing minor nations, but I don't know which one. I have all DLC's, but there are many options. I tried Portugal and didn't like it and Manchukuo, but I am so used to playing majors that I need to train on a minor nation to know what to do. Any suggestions, please?

Hey guys I did a pretty nornal playthrough. I almost got to Moscow, but those pesky Soviets pushed me back! Then I went for Stalingrad, hoping to get that juicy oil, but they encircled like, an entire army.

Now 2 days ago the Allies landed on Normandy despite all of my defenses and things are seeming harder. Can anyone fix this?!? I'm sick and tired of my generals lying to me, even the SS!

For those that don’t know, all operating systems have an in built screen recording function.

Windows
If you press Win+Shift+S you take a screenshot of a specific window. You draw a box around the image.

If you press Win+Shift+R it records your screen.

Mac
If you press Cmd+shift+3 or 4 it either takes a screenshot of the whole screen or gives you a box.

If you press Cmd+shift+5 it records your screen.

Please stop using your phone, it makes the Soviets being broken into 108393 counties look like a Picasso drawing.
