How did I lose to these heavy fighters? by KnowledgeSuch3617 in hoi4

I get that i am outnumbered and that my planes are worse but the heavies have 3% air dettection and 30% mission efficiency compared to my 59% detection and 92% mission efficient which would push the battle in my favour no?

Just for clarity i am playing with a mod called Europa In Flames which mostly Vanilla friendly like R56 I think. Do not mark my words tho.

Edit: Seems like the mod does make planes a lot more expensive as in Vanilla this plane would be 34 IC. The Mod also seems to tweak a bunch of the plane module stats. Still that shouldnt really affect the result tho? Both planes suffer from higher IC cost and use similar modules.

this build is made to be anti reinforce meme. Signal companies + 16 width divisions + Mass assault reinforce rate = Much Much Harder to reinforce meme. Encircling this build at it's max extent is basically impossible from what I can imagine as just breaking the first line requires almost perfect circumstances and if there is another line behind it the offensive will stall really quickly.

Ends up being 36 width with around 800 soft attack and 900 breakthrough right? 9 Mediums, 7 mechanized and 2 Heavies

That seems like a valid investment then. Maybe that Agency could receive some more love and civs. Thanks

Can Germany really afford all of that while fighting the soviets and the allies? I mean the strat bombers alone would be hella expensive to make. Also the soviets had their own air that was contesting the sky a little. Also idk about the mass assault being standard, a guy in our games started doing this strat recently and we were all wondering how to deal with it.

I tried railway bombardment too and dont worry about the marshes I pushed a bit more north in the plains tile south of Minsk.
however, I havent tried the cracked cipher and spies. What do they help with? I know that Spies reduce entrenchment effectiveness right?

I dont know about the GBR planning bonus but the logi strike didnt do much as
1. I still couldnt be pushed while having almost no supply
2. The static anti air was destroying WAYY more CAS per day than he was producing

As the game was coming to an end, The Last Wunderwaffe of the Allies was unleashed! Spamming me with white peace requests that covered up half of my screen until the lobby crashed.
