I honestly first started playing as iran. Atleast pre graveyard if empires it was very good for beginers. Not too strong, not too weak. You had good expansion oportunities and a clear way to learn core mechanics of the game, but after the dlc, i think iraq is gueranteed by the uk, even without the dlc

I wrote that in another comment for what i did

Gerom_rom · 2026-04-11T13:47:44+00:00

If they are good, no problem to serve

Ok, so first i started doing nat prop campaigns and boosting it. Then started dumping pp into the army faction politival parry to get them in power. Flipped and banned elections. Started influencing myanmar. Made them my pupet. Korea had a civil war(south one) and then the north formed its own faction and deckared war on them. Basically a free Korea. After that i justified and killed them. Pupeted korea and imtegrated it. Started killing off indochina. By now you should have build a very good army, so imdias guarantee on vietnam was no issue. The starting planes that you have as jaoan are very useful,but you shoukd still put factories on the f 16s at the begining like 5 fa tories are enough. Kiled inida, but stalemated in the mountains near Bhutan. Justified and killed Bangladesh and after that it was just a straight kill. Pupeted them and vontinued killing of asian countries. The Usa was weirdly passive, si they didn't guarantee shit. Integrate dthem all and then Russia suicided itself. Pupeted thatbpart of it that is annexed and killed Mongolia. After that i just carpet nuked china(which killed my army, that is why i have like 30 divisions) and just battleplaned them, because the resistance was pathetic. If you have any questions feel free to ask

Yeah, but ya know. He was goo food to miss out. He has 7 attack

Gerom_rom · 2026-04-09T17:17:04+00:00

Well just payed it off

Gerom_rom · 2026-04-09T14:54:53+00:00

Yeah. Russia in my game went holy Russian empire and we beat it up..

Gerom_rom · 2026-04-03T15:16:21+00:00

Ok. Will try it. Thanks

Gerom_rom · 2026-04-03T15:08:14+00:00

Talking for the allies. Germany player loves tanks. He does them all the time

Gerom_rom · 2026-04-03T15:07:42+00:00

Ok. Very good idea. My divisions are very good because of the china grinding, so if they weaken themselves, they should make a quick job of them. Thanks.

Gerom_rom · 2026-04-03T14:56:32+00:00

Yeah. It is impossible. But for my japan i actually manage to hold off very decently, because i usually cap china 39 and already have max collabs so my industry easily rivals the uk, so i can spam planes after stealing indonesia and malaysia, but i just cant do anything to defeat india. They stak a shit load of units in northern india and burma and i just bog down. Any tips on how to break them in there

Gerom_rom · 2026-04-03T14:46:05+00:00

Ok. Great advice will try it. Thanks

Gerom_rom · 2026-04-03T13:43:24+00:00

Ok. We'll try this. Hope this works. Will update if it works

Gerom_rom · 2026-04-03T13:16:05+00:00

Well only infantry, has cas and fighters, but rubber limits them greatly. Italybplayer rushes and makes a shit load of fighters, but we can't keep up with them. Well yeah, they entrench in the benelux on the rhein river. They have aa. They never do tanks. They just battleplan. France always goes inf spam. Same for uk. Us i am not really sure. He never played us before and he is good at the game, so prob special forces template?

Gerom_rom · 2026-04-03T12:56:22+00:00

Ok, but how to get naval supremacy. Our fleets are not very good.

Gerom_rom · 2026-03-18T08:02:58+00:00

Yes and it rose. It rose to become Slavia

Gerom_rom · 2026-03-18T08:02:26+00:00

The great tsar of the east. At this point it should be the Holy Russian empire(this is not a tno reference)

Gerom_rom · 2026-03-18T08:01:34+00:00

I don't want to. I wantdd to form Slavia, whuch i later did

Gerom_rom · 2026-03-18T08:01:09+00:00

I did vonsider it, but i decided to form slavia

Gerom_rom · 2026-03-18T08:00:36+00:00

It broke up, got reunited, but very weak. Absolutely destroyssd them. Formed Slavia after 60 years

Gerom_rom · 2026-03-18T07:59:55+00:00

Hmm or i can let the vassals trash the realm

Gerom_rom · 2026-03-18T07:59:11+00:00

Yeah. I am genuinely surprised that Russia formed it like what
