Paradox Interactive Thread: V3 'Check out my sick Germany blob' - Games

[QUOTE=maniacykt;50499950]Maybe RNG just hates me.[/QUOTE] Did you have air superiority? I think I had around 1000 fighters and 1000 tactical bombers and had superiority the entire time. I also had quite a few strong light tank divisions. If I remember right, my medium tank divisions started coming out a little after the war started.

IIRC, the USSR's army is pretty shit if you try to fight right after the purge. I admittedly never played them in HoI3 because organizing their OOB to an acceptable level to me was a nightmare.

[QUOTE=sgman91;50498172]It seems like this game is either rediculously hard or super easy. I just played through as China and pretty easily beat back Japan without any faction help. I then used paratroopers to take their mainland. Other than the very early game, the whole thing was super easy.[/QUOTE] I've yet to see AI Japan beat them in any of my games, which seems ridiculous because a bunch of chinamen with sticks eating dirt and rocks should not really under any circumstance be able to hold off an industrialized 1st world country, let alone actually push them off the continent...

Done making these God damned states, back to map painting. [t]http://i.imgur.com/yN8SwRA.jpg[/t] [t]http://i.imgur.com/qAVli52.png[/t] Doing these was hell, my God.

Granted, not doing it exceedingly well but still. China had made quite a few leaps in industrialization during the interwar period. I do agree though China shouldn't be able to win so easily.

Why does Poland go fascist so easily? This is after the end of war and the peace conference.

Naval invasions are the clunkiest goddamn thing, I swear to god. Watching my friend as the US trying to invade Cuba, and they have nearly 100 ships surrounding Cuba, and bombing them regularly, and the game's like "still no data about this region, cannot invade :^)"

I also hope we get an option to hand over territory without needing to be at war. Kinda annoying that, to fix Poland, I have to give all of their territory back as the USSR, including east-poland

Love how this game handles battlezones and occupied territory.

So started a new game for the 3rd time learning from my mistakes. Now the entirety of the world(that is not North or south America) is Axis or German Territory. How best go about invading USA? I'm thinking carriers and nukes.

They showed off Map modes in the last Stellaris stream, right now they just have Diplo and Opinion They had cute little drawn in MS Paint icons :v:

Hey Tuskin, when you did your new political party, did it have a separate flag file too? Like, CAN_(politics)? I'm starting the basics of the WW1 mod and was thinking of having a "Monarchist" party to help separate the Central Powers out instead of just renaming Fascism.

I've managed to puppet almost all of china in 3 years. Am I that good or...?

I made a mod to change [del]some[/del] nearly all country names. [url]http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=703085613[/url]

It's uncanny. Shit even Italy

[editline]13th June 2016[/editline] (Please note: Paradox and their infinite wisdom have decided to change the names of states, so that's why I lack South Tyrol, Vojvodina, galicia, etc.)

3rd time had to start a new game but i finally got hang of HOI 4 somewhat. [t]http://i.imgur.com/S4Bqg8u.jpg[/t] Everyone in this picture except new zeland is Axis and Facist. [t]http://i.imgur.com/kqQc4Hp.jpg[/t] The US is the last real allied power left fighting. Thinking on how to approach said situation right now.

The Free American Empire is in the Allies?

[QUOTE=TheBloodyNine;50516769]The Free American Empire is in the Allies?[/QUOTE] i've seen a whole bunch of various ideologies join factions they really shouldnt spain does this w/the allies alot, even nationalist spain sometimes

Republican Spain allying with the Allies isn't really that unreasonable.

So in CK2 I'm trying to claim a holy site (Zeeland) from Lotharingia as Sweden so I can reform my paganism, but the fuckers are beating me every time. I'll have a stack of probably like 6000 on Zeeland and they'll send like 5000 crossing a fucking strait and still destroy me. As far as military tech goes I am not too behind so what am I doing wrong?

Generals?

IIRC you used to be able to stack most of your army on one of the flanks and utterly destroy enemies because the flank would overwhelm the enemy flank and then just crush the center due to the flanking bonus. That or troop composition.

why the fuck is hoi4 so broken and unfinished? a civil war just started as british raj even though my country was 100% communist. it also split the country by giving the opposing side the biggest population centers. is the raj even able to break free? its like paradox didn't expect people to play any countries but the "interesting countries".
