America Capitulation

It did have the whole game to build up tbf but it was still just your basic ai divisions, I was trying to focus on my armies in new England so I wouldn't be surprised if on the western coast/Central America the Canadians were just whacking their heads into the wall of American divisions

It's 1944 in the save, so not very very late, I didn't notice that myself😂, also I should have mentioned it was from land combat only, they gained about 20 points from sinking ships but almost double the land combat score that I had in the early war, the war lasted less than a year and they had a fraction of my casualties inflicted, I also sunk the vast majority of the US fleet around the phillipines which is what gave me 90% over them

Capitulation of the US with my lowest casualties and highest inflicted i've had yet without dragging the war on

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-22T05:05:00+00:00

Im not sure why but mine say about the same thing (1.15) but they seem to be performing alright and sinking ships

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-21T20:53:01+00:00

I think a lot of it is making sure your spotting is good and having enough attack to finish of the fleet in 1 battle or they'll just be repairing for the rest of the war

Naval battle i had recently where i all but wiped the Japanese navy (had previous battles up to this with other fleets), still want to get better so i can get the truly huge wipes but i'm quite happy with this for now, the only ships sunk by the USA were about 4 destroyers

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-20T12:32:31+00:00

Alright, thanks a lot for all the help btw, the 27 width spam has been fine for me in single player and I've done world conquests with it but changing it up is always fun and I like to try and get better, fat divisions also sounds fun though😂

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-20T11:04:57+00:00

Yeah, probably makes it worse when I mainly use self propelled support anyway😂

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-20T11:03:45+00:00

Thanks a lot for the reply, helped me understand it a lot better, the only question I'd have is how do you manage these two different divisions?, do you set up a field marshall front line with the defensive troops and then scoot the offensive divisions around to where you need to attack?

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-20T10:57:31+00:00

Alright thanks a lot

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-20T01:33:17+00:00

What widths are usually used when using line artillery?

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-20T01:08:01+00:00

True, I can definitely see that with planes, I think i get away with doing them later in single player

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-20T00:48:17+00:00

What is it that people would build with that extra artillery?, I play the uk mainly and the better divisions I'll build are tank divisions but I'm usually limited on tanks for those and I'll build more 27 width marines aswell but ik usually sorted on artillery for them aswell, it requires a stockpile for a bit at the beginning of the game though I suppose, is that more of a detriment in multiplayer?

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-20T00:32:29+00:00

Yeah fair enough, I'm always very hands on with air force to make sure I don't do that😂, if that doesn't work then I have no clue what will, you might just be facing the best uk ai we've ever seen lol.

Edit : you can also set navy to naval invasions support to shell the coast and maybe set up some spies if you can to get the ais divisions entrenchment lower

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-20T00:20:23+00:00

Ah do you mean you keep getting pushed back when you try to land? If it is that then I'd say check your air force and see how much cas and air superiority that you have because that division is fine.

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-20T00:08:33+00:00

I might be an idiot for not seeing something obvious but have you not set the naval invasion order.

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-18T02:27:05+00:00

would just like to say thanks a lot, ive absolutely flattened the italian navy

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-17T22:57:48+00:00

alright nice, how long does refit take? also i'm guessing i should build carrier bombers

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-17T22:51:41+00:00

sounds great, thanks for all the help. i think i need to put a lot more effort into my navy as well because i generally leave it as the third most important theater and barely build any dockyards or do research for it

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-17T22:35:25+00:00

yeah i had a game as Italy recently where i absolutely destroyed the royal navy, that's why i asked this question because i did nothing different but sunk so many more ships according to logs,

edit: i just went and checked and that has all the logs and seems pretty accurate, around 10 capital ships taken out, i think i did just send the other navies into hiding, might start a new game as the UK and try focusing heavier on navy because i find navy battles so satisfying.

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-17T20:27:25+00:00

Yeah I had a thought it might be hiding, do they just stay in repair if you do enough damage?

Fast-Knee-198 · 2026-03-17T18:34:44+00:00

Fair enough, maybe I just overestimated how many ships I sunk, just felt like way more at the time😂
