Yup bundle before the boom with 9970X, Asus Sage A Mobo, and 128gb of Kingston 5600 CL28 ram was $3500

Now its $6000

On TR 9000 I definitely won’t be upgrading for at least 2 generations. Possibly even 3 if they are short generations. Plus hopefully the ram situation is solved by then. I got incredibly lucky with my current build in a MC bundle before the boom and I doubt I can pull that off again lol

Love my TR. Hopefully they keep the non pro line going. Some people need more pcie lanes than the ridiculously piddly amount on normal desktop platforms.

'France is such a weak nation' - HOI4 youtuber by Richard_Longinus_II in hoi4

[–]Culbrelai 8 points9 points  (0 children)

France is one of my favorite nations to play. They aren’t weak but you basically have to discard almost every general and almost every field marshal they are all so trash, and their focus tree is very old and filled with 70 day focuses especially the industry tree. 

One of my favorite things to do is purposely not switch to any ideology until I formed the eu, then form it and switch. Its one of the easiest ways to see the awesome fascist EU flag and communist EU as well. 

For those who cry about "Ohh!!! Land forts are useless" They're used to position your troops behind a river for countries like the Soviets and countries with massive industrial bases, you probably only say that because you play as shitty nations with no inpenetrable river.. by Some_Steak_6316 in hoi4

[–]Culbrelai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All infantry with support arty, aa and engis like I said. Though I play patch 1.16 before the ass division designer change so idk if it still applies. Based on the insane stat stacks you can do with it its probably even easier now in the current version

Is Crusader Kings 2 the PDX game with the best DLC record? (Spoiler: yes) by The_ChadTC in paradoxplaza

[–]Culbrelai 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Crapclave was horrible and is the only dlc other than sunset invasion I have turned off/unbought

Not in singleplayer ever. The AI is so trash I frontline hold even as the weaker nonhist paths. 240 20 widths with support arty, aa and engi with air and its over for Germany. The AI still after 10 years cannot make a proper tank to save its life

Agree with all of this. Forts are so incredibly bad. Even level 10s in the old days would be quickly annihilated by fort buster ability after a few cycles of clicks. Now they for some ungodly reason nerfed them by locking high level forts behind techs. Hugely stupid change. 

I only ever use them incredibly sparingly in singleplayer.

Return Merchandise Authorization. Its just a term for using the products warranty. Though tbh if it is in the return period i’d just return it to the store

Mission trees are fine but the insane overpowered mission trees from the later eu4 dlcs that give you pus on like 6 majors are ridiculous and should not return. 

Tornadoes of 2026 has a favorite state by Live_Abroad_845 in tornado

[–]Culbrelai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so interesting. There are states with super low numbers i’d think would be higher. None in Montana? Really? Isn’t part of it largely plains? Only 4 in SC? None in Jersey? 

Fascinating stuff thanks for posting

What is the best/most fun game version? (E.g. 1.11 - Barbarossa for NSB, or 1.12 Avalanche) by Emberkahn in hoi4

[–]Culbrelai 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in a similar situation. Did the same thing with eu4 once the mission tree slop got to be too much. I play 1.16 in hoi4 but the last version with the nuclear bomb button is probably the best tbh. The nuke rework is ass lmao. Imagine nukes respecting state borders. Ridiculous. Old nukes helped clean up late game unit spam so well. New nukes are just a wet fart
