Koesj posted:gently caress it I pulled the trigger on the Field Marshall Edition with the GMG coupon since I've got the money now now now and would probably end up with all the DLC anyway. But if you just didn't spend that money you'd have that money when the content came out and you'd be able to acertain if it was garbage?

Rookersh posted:It's $50 worth of DLC according to Paradox themselves. ( not counting the tank packs, the two "Expansions" they want to release that are presumably $25ish a piece and thus quite large ). You have literally no idea what those dlcs are supposed to be. They could be a the loving sounds of brazil and a unit pack for Tibet. Or they could be terrible ideas that make the game worse.

Once the t-34 tank came out German and Soviet tanks were pretty on par. Judicious use of sloped armor made Soviet tanks tanks have similar toughness despite having less actual armor and weaker engines.

Hoi 4 is a very moddable game. You can easily add assault guns.

So there's a limit on democracies declaring wars until world tension gets high enough. And faction members inherit the limits of their faction leaders. But democratic factions can avoid the limits pretty much entirely by finding a communist or fascist country to pump up WT then join the Democrat faction and let the democratic faction declare war. See Prussian prince's multiplayer stream where communist France did this. There needs to be a bad boy or something that prevents communist or fascist countries that have contributed to raising world tension from joining democratic factions.

Drone posted:1 being "not concerned at all, game is awesome" and 10 being "game is literally unplayable and won't even boot up"? I'm at around a 3 or 4. It all depends on how the AI seems to do. Using that scale. While I was like a 7-8 for sterllaris before launch. I'm prob a 2-3 for hoi 4.

Hammerstein posted:This is odd, cause in HoI 3 the major nations sure reacted if Adolfo Hitlerez suddenly started annexing minor nations left and right. What he is doing here would have provoked a reaction from other nations in HoI 3 long ago. To be fair he was on historic mode. So the ai isn't nearly as likely to respond to his crazy poo poo.

Colonial Air Force posted:It seems weird that the US wouldn't just start with that doctrine since it was created by James Monroe in 1823. It starts with Monroe doctrine. Every American country starts protected by the USA. Problem is it is a special protection that only applies to attacks be non Americans. It takes national focii to convert them into normal protections

Unimpressed posted:What are the downsides of doing this? He needs the army exp to add arti battalions to his division. Is there some sort of penalty? He basically throwing guns into a pyre so that the gods will grant him army experience. 6% attrition while exercising. He'd also have been better off building new divisions rather than doubling the size of his current ones since training while building doesn't suffer attrition. The art additions were fine but adding extra columns of inf was bad. Nitrousoxide fucked around with this message at 05:38 on Jun 6, 2016 |

Tinkle posted:Can someone give a breakdown of differences in adding artillery as a support battalion and just adding it to the front line. Adding them to the frontline just seems flat out better at the cost of more supplies. I have to imagine having artillery in support ALWAYS gives the bonuses as opposed of having them on the front line and finding space to operate in the "front width"? Support brigades can't slow down their division. So armor or mech divisions should have support art as opposed to line art. Though spg line divisions are fine. There are also doctrines that improve line art or support art.

Dongattack posted:Ah yeah, seems about right. The XP isn't very useful then, medium tanks it is. Keep the super trained lights around and throw them in fights along with the mediums that are actually punching through. Use the lights to exploit the hole to close a pocket or try to overrun the retreating units.

Decrepus posted:When you assign a fighter to a Squadron it takes a certain amount of manpower presumably representing the supporting crew. 20 for a fighter and higher for bombers. When they are shot down do you lose all of it? Yes. The crew literally hang onto the planes like gremlins while in combat.

Jesus, the ability to use your vassels' manpower to make divisions is powerful. Netherlands has the ability to spit out 100 divisions before the war starts easily. Japan has unlimited manpower once they start cutting into China and transfer control of some states to their Chinese vassals, and if they win the war they are stronger than the Soviets easily.

TheDemon posted:Naval bombers on carriers are given no mission by default and if they do not have a mission, will always participate in their carrier's combats. In addition, during combat they can fly three times a day whereas land based naval bombers can fly once. So they are the equivalent of 100% coverage, 100% chance to find ships, 300% sortie numbers, ignores air superiority. Jesus, I guess that kinda makes sense given their obscenely priced airfields.

Gort posted:Yeah, join the Comintern, fortify the Pyrenees, and draw troops away from the Eastern Front for the USSR. You might even do well and end up conquering France. There's also a couple of non-mountain provinces along the coasts that you should really fort up far harder. And include engineers in your divisions for that delicious dig-in bonus.

Democrazy posted:I think that strategic bombing is a ripe place for an expansion, with the ability to flesh out bombers, infrastructure/factory disruptions and repair, and anti-bomber measures taken. It could really make the air war against Germany/Japan/Britain more interesting. Air Power in general needs an overhaul. The interface is clunky. You get absolutely no warscore out of your contributions except for strategic bombing. Naval bombing, air superiority, and close air support contribute nothing to your score (same thing with Naval power in general).

Raenir Salazar posted:What's the best way to crack a level 7 fort? The enemy has 10 divisions there, 7 forts, and 1 division with heavy armor, and I can't seem to make them budge no matter how many divisions attack from both sides. Close air support to do direct unmitigated damage to the units (and boost your own unit's damage).
