Basticle posted:what? So the justification in '34 for the Night of Long Knives and the SS purge/replacement of the SA, and Rohm's murder and Himmler becoming Hitler's new BFF.... The official justification was that Rohm was preparing the "Rohm Putsch" wherein he would coup himself in since the SA has 3m men and the Treaty-of-Versailles-bound actually military has like 100k, and the SS is still Himmler's weird cult and not even Sepp Dietrich's action-adventure team.

There's nothing stopping you from making your own weird Nazi Röhm fetish mod, I guess? But to answer what I assume the original question is: I don't think there is already a mod that replaces Hitler with Röhm, no.

Is there a "China and Japan ally" path? I haven't played in a long time. And I don't mean the Japanese focus to puppet China.

So Austria's poor performance at Milan was still nagging me and I loaded up my save as Austria again and hit the Strategic Air screen. 5000 fighters doing air superiority over Milan. Zero bombers of any kind built.  The Narrator posted:This will lead to civil war in the future. lmao

Can anyone recommend a good video that explains leveraging your subjects' manpower to recruit units? I've tried fiddling with it after reading the wiki but it is still a little confusing to me. I'm debating trying to recruit troops from a puppetted Russia, and thus would plan on taking less land so they would have more manpower for me to leach.

One thing to remember is that unlike the puppet's own divisions, these ones will need a supply line to your own capital, which makes them slightly finicky to use (like Italy can't use these to have a self-contained East African army using puppet Ethiopia, they will still lose convoys to British interdiction).

The veritable hiding of that function is such bullshit. Colonial empires are literally playing with one arm looked behind their back if they don't use colonial manpower to field divisions. It makes an incredible difference.

I play MP KR on the reg and we figured out that if everyone goes to My Documents/paradox/HOI4 and deleted everything other than your settings.ini file and save game folder and do that everytime you start playing it eliminates 95% of desyncs

buglord posted:It’s hilarious but they do have a point about democracies being self-gimping gameplaywise. Yeah, the point that a bunch of countries have nothing to do absent of the fascist powers trying to attack them is fair, but that's partly because there's no real diplomacy or espionage options. The UK at least is going to have options soon, so that's something, and I assume the US tree won't be wrongheaded enough to be as reactive as it was.

The problem with the US has always been that if they join the war too early Germany never really poses a threat and if they join the war historically that's a boring 5 years or so for the player. Standing QA recommendation for balance is to cut the US from the game btw.

Yeah, if you’ve got the generic tree, going communist or democratic gimps you compared to going fascist. Even in KR it’s almost always more fun to go full natpop since you usually get more expansion options.

Haven't played HoI4 since launch, installed KR for the first time. Syndie Italy seems rather tough one to start out with, zero manpower reserves and all. I think I'll try Britain next.
