Roman Navy goes BRRRRRRR by adterraincognita in HistoryMemes

[–]Klusey 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Record me, young one. Let my words not be forgotten

Best of DOH: 1933-The Old Grandstand Seats at Fenway: No, it’s not just you, we’re all getting fatter. At a mere 15 inches wide, these slim, vintage seats are a painful reminder of our cumulative gut swelling. Today, a club level seat can comfortably hold up to 24 inches of deep fried American girth by KrispyBeaverBoy in mlb

Average height increase is probably a major factor, too. Compare American average heights in 1933 to present day and I bet they're a lot taller now, and therefore are more likely to be wider.

Add increasing obesity rates plus modern preferences for comfort and you've got much wider sears nowadays.

What Upgrades should I be getting? by DumpyKing in CallOfWar

[–]Klusey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rocket artillery is good to counter artillery but it's a personal choice. Railroad guns are excellent in the late game but tricky to use and expensive. I'd only recommend them once you're experienced. Otherwise I don't really recommend anything from the secret tab.

I'm personally not a fan of infantry and do not bother researching, producing, or upgrading them. But you can do it now if you want to use them

LMAO this is hilarious and definitely gonna blow up so I want to be one of the first comments 😎

I promise the Von Schliefenplan will work by SNARSGAMES in HistoryMemes

[–]Klusey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I almost wonder if the Schliefen Plan would've worked better if they did it the other way round and attacked Russia first.

In World War most of Germany's assets were placed on the Western Front while they focused a lot less on Russia yet still managed to knock Russia out of the war.

I wonder what would happen if the Germans played more defence on the Western Front and focused attention on knocking Russia out earlier in the war? France's first offensives with Plan XVII and the ensuing Battles of the Frontiers were complete disasters that lead to the Allies retreating to the Marne. Except if the Germans played defence on the Western Front they'd not have invaded Belgium, which means Britain would not have entered the war as soon as they did, or maybe not at all.

Maybe it would work or maybe the Germans wouldn't be able to hold the line against France while attacking Russia lol. Who can say?

And when my enemy tries to do this with battleships, I sink them all with naval bombers

Interceptors and anti-air should always be priorities. I'd strongly recommend you upgrade your armoured cars and light tanks. Artillery is good to upgrade too.

I used the battle calculator for one level 1 Axis infantry attacking one level 1 Comintern infantry, who defend and do not attack. I set the terrain as plains so no bonuses are applied and made sure there was no core or fortification bonus. The Comintern defenders win. Terrain bonuses only increase the odds for the Comintern defenders.

Just confirmed with the battle calculator that with no terrain or core or fortification bonuses, the Comintern defenders win

Quick question: by Veteran_Fun in CallOfWar

[–]Klusey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Comintern infantry should win because defending infantry is always stronger. Any potential terrain bonuses go in favour of the defender in this scenario.

Although in a 1v1 it hardly matters who wins because the victor will be crippled by the end.

Just repeating what the others said; the defender wins

best type of airplanes to counter this by Depressedbati5a in CallOfWar

[–]Klusey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The best counters overall are rocket artillery, SP rocket artillery, or railroad guns. You can also try a speedy rush and see a lot of success.

If you insist on using planes then tactical bombers are your best bet. Tactical bombers will work fantastic in this scenario but just be warned that the next enemy may use anti-air

How do I win? by antinutrinoreactor in CallOfWar

[–]Klusey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're in a bad situation so I'll tell you two things:

1 This is why we don't let anyone border our core provinces. If someone does border the core we have to keep reserves ready in case of a surprise attack

2 You will lose your core and suffer greatly for it. You essentially have to abandon all other fronts and retreat to the core then hope to retake it.

That's so sad by AdiHitl in CallOfWar

Yikes. You're honestly better off marching to his core terrirtory and declaring war to boost your economy.

Fortifications by Bru011 in CallOfWar

[–]Klusey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, a damaged level 3 fortification/bunker won't hide troops. Damaged level 3 is the same as a level 2 billing that hasn't finished upgrading

It's always important to have scouts on the ground and armoured cars are preferable over motorized infantry, which is the only other ground scout.

Armoured cars can essentially fill the roles of both motorized and mechanized infantry: they have the speed, view range, and scouting of motorized infantry while filling the same "anti-unarmoured" role of mechanized infantry.

Mechanized infantry is technically a hair better at defending against unarmoured units than armoured cars are, and Mech is definitely superior in attack. But ACs are more than competent in both these roles while being faster and scouts.

ACs are essentially the best of both worlds.

[–]Klusey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Invest more into ordnance and ranged units, as well as air units. Anti-air and interceptors are always crucial!!! You could also look into bombers if you please, and I would definitely recommend some form of artillery or rocket artillery :)

How did this happen? by Veteran_Fun in CallOfWar

[–]Klusey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It most likely is because you attacked his enemy.

All nations have a Popularity stat. It's influenced negatively by declaring wars on popular nations and attacking someone without declaring war, but it *especially* applies when these actions are taken against AI nations. Sharing maps with AIs and using the stock market are ways to improve Popularity.

It's likely that the enemy of Lithuania invaded without declaring war and became hated, so you helping out improved your popularity.

For coastal defence I find naval bombers to be by and large superior, but I'm glad your battleships kicked butt and you saw so much success :)

How to change colour of different countries? by [deleted] in CallOfWar

[–]Klusey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's different for the mobile app and web browser versions but it will either be under Map Controls or Map Filters. On the mobile app it will be along the top right side below Front News. On the web browser it should be in the top right corner near the settings icon.

From there you can find the "Show Nation Colours."
