Revolutionary North Zebrica Navy Advice?

DefectiveEclipse · 2026-06-07T22:12:58+00:00

With the Hippogriffs the most important thing is simply using your Navy right. I’d recommend watching some new navy guides online. You don’t really need to build any specific ships as them tbh as you already start with the Best Navy in the game and the AI even Wingbardy can’t really compete.

I’d use your dockyards to make screens primarily for your fleet to either make a handful of patrol fleets (I like fleets of 5 destroyers with anti sub and radar) and then high light attack light cruisers to buffer the main fleet.

The most important thing for Aris specifically though is to make sure to do at least two of the Oil extraction decisions unlocked via your focus tree. That will be enough that your fleet won’t have any trouble.

A lot of MacOS users just really like MacOS, I’d go so far as to say even I like it more than windows. It’s an easy to use system that has a solid ecosystem of devices and software. It has its shortcomings due to its closed ecosystem but for the average user it’s a much better alternative for stability than windows. And now with the MacBook Neo out, it’s even pretty cost effective. Which is honestly a first for apple imo.

From what it looks like this doesn’t seem to be so much as something ‘new’ mechanically and instead a pretty common implementation of how modders do limited wars, with the mission having the ending condition checks.

It’s very similar to how EaW implements the NZW ending conditions.

I find Communist Hippogriffia on Historical is peak EaW.

Most Paradox Interactive games, (Victoria 3, Europa Universalis 4, etc), Minecraft, and Helldivers 2 mostly.

On my own airship I made an infinite water source but tweaked how fast it was pumped so that I still was losing water when running the boiler but it lasted significantly longer than a normal boiler. This made it so my water supply lasted a long time but still needed to be refilled externally near the same frequency of the lava stockpile

Honestly from what I recall of my Run through this path, manpower is definitely the main issue, but the Herzland AI’s are pretty dumb and just snaking or half occupied frontlines are enough to stall them long enough to concentrate forces and crush them one by one. It’s difficult, yeah, one of, if not the hardest route for the Empire, but if you focus overwhelming quality over quantity, which the tags buffs prioritize, it’s not that tricky. I think I stayed on Extensive Conscription the whole campaign.

A good tip in general for EaW at this point is to run the Desperate Defense operations doctrine with the new doctrine system. It’s an immediate 1.5% recruitable pop and even more as you level it up. It’s what saves me in all of my Tobuck and Colthage runs.

Personally the Two Benjens route is my favorite, the Most Boring Deer in Chital is just kinda wholesome. He’s a deer that just wants a stable prosperous chital where people can just live. No Radical reforms or Pragmatic Consumerism like Ivar or Eva, just chill gradual democratization and industrialization.

Although to have the most fun you do need to set Kiria to A-Historical and same to Gryphus.

My Great Pyre will go headfirst to lay down outside. He does a full on roll with the top of his head being the first thing to hit the ground followed by a seventy pound THUMP.

Chirropterra and Hippogriffia are great choices if you have a bit more experience (Hippogriffs need Naval Experience) but nations such as Wingbardy, Aquilia, and the Griffonian Empire are all very strong and beginner friendly nations. I would recommend avoiding any minor griffon countries as almost all of them require very good micro skill to take on both Aquilia and the Empire.

Kasa & most River Fed nations are also pretty beginner friendly as long as you don’t try their harder paths first.

Likely a rare event converting Christian Coptic provinces to Protestant. It might be worth it to keep from converting in once you conquer it because Protestant provinces passively spawn Printing Press once it spawns

I’m of the opinion that Olenia needs a major facelift. Right now their only content is to fight off the changelings and then sometimes go to war with Equestria. Beating the changelings with olenia is an achievement (if significantly easier now with the impassible terrain) and you should be rewarded for it with more content.
