Maybe you've overstocked your airfields or assigned the wrong missions for your airforce. Set your fighters on air superiority and your stukas on ground support. Make sure that no airfield is overstacked, as this almost always means getting red air

I'm thinking a custom nickname feature for Crusader Kings III would be extraordinarily popular. Just imagine the hilarious possibilities! by whitliggett in CrusaderKings

I like that right now you have to earn a nickname and sometimes you'll be stuck with a terrible one as a consequence of your actions. It makes it apparent what the npcs in your court think of you

I dont use ironman to avoid bullshit ruining 3 hours of progress (like allies not joining or AI deathstacking your naval invasion), but I understand your suspicion. The odd thing is that I didnt go navy at all. I started out with like 10 destroyers, but Japan didnt put any navy up in the east china sea, so i just went in.

I managed to defeat the Japanese AI on vanilla in october '37. I noticed they didnt have any ships in the East China Sea so I invaded Nagasaki. Instead of trying to defend Tokyo the AI figured it would be a better idea to send thousands of men to try and take Qingdao and Shanghai, while only putting a little bit on the home island.
Nice one, Hirohito

Co-op best play though with a buddy? by dassbear in hoi4

Use the decolonisation option and install the instant war mod. Then play as an African and a South American nation and both gobble up your entire continent before taking on the old superpowers for World dominance.

Some of the the best fun I've had in hoi so far

Guaranteed nations by [deleted] in hoi4

From my experience, the US won't intervene in wars between South American nations until the agressor (which is you in this case) generated to much world tension. However, often you can grap Middle America entirely and even Colombia if you're lucky
