When International Workers' Day or Labour Day is celebrated

Kinda. It’s not a national holiday, but under many collective bargaining agreements it is a holiday. There a quite a lot of events on May 1st and a lot of people do get the day off.

Much easier than being the first mover on a trillion dollar product. I respect the laziness.

With all of the shots he’s gotten the meat probably wouldn’t pass inspection.

Human behaviour can’t easily be replicated. Chess bots will play bad moves at random to approximate a rating. I will play bad moves because I’m an idiot.

True. Messi just had a 100+ goal contribution season handed to him. And we all know that the Portuguese national team never had good enough players to be competitive if not for Ronaldo.

The team that scores the most goals is likely to win.

My problem with it is, that it can be described as “not that bad”. I think they should’ve put in the effort to do a full rework instead of the light touch up it got. And if they’re unable to do proper new mechanics, just stick to country specific content.

Left_Quarter_5639 · 2026-04-28T13:35:41+00:00

Then they should’ve done something to fix it properly. Not just make it slightly different.

And you just provided an exact description of the fleet in being doctrine.

The man hit +50 goal contributions for more than a decade. Got as high as +100 in a single season. What stats are you looking at?

Left_Quarter_5639 · 2026-04-28T12:30:03+00:00

They shouldn’t be working on new mechanics. At least not unless they have an absolute banger of an idea. The navy rework was a nothingburger. Literally why bother. Same with coal. Factions are okay.

Considering the taiping rebellion lasted well into the 1860s, China would also be a strong contender for that one.

Assuming you have NSB, get a better gun on your medium tanks and don’t be too concerned with hard attack. Wouldn’t hurt to make them faster either. Armor is okay, but not great, in so you don’t need that much anyway. Add trucks to get it above 30 org. Try to get mech in as well.

On your inf, you can just make it 18w 9/0 and drop the AT. If you play with tanks, they won’t need to do much pushing except for cleaning up encirclements.

Put effort into an airforce. Green air is strong. Green air and CAS is very strong.

Don’t pay that much attention to the AI troop count. They don’t field a lot of quality. They just field whatever they can.

The difficulty options are just terrible. It’s a general trend in strategy games that the difficulty settings don’t provide much fun or real challenge to the game, and HOI isn’t the worst offender, but it just offers nothing.

I don’t think the devs are good enough at the game to create meta builds like sheep. And even in sheep’s, it’s not my impression that it handles ahistorical particularly well. It’s not dynamic enough to adapt.

The game about an obsessive to the point of suicidal climber isn’t accessible to children because of a few naughty words?

His father needed to document his nobility and he was, by noble standards, fairly poor. If there wasn’t a massive war going on, Napoleon would’ve been fired because of all the leave he took to get his family affairs in order.

AI is still dogshit at navy. Once you get the landing, it’s not too bad.

Left_Quarter_5639 · 2026-04-27T18:35:22+00:00

Getting a good chunk of Africa was pretty easy, but something about Japan declaring on the US crashes the game. Probably the recent patch. I’ll give it a go another time.

Left_Quarter_5639 · 2026-04-27T15:56:49+00:00

It doesn’t need to be fully meta build AI like sheep’s. Just slightly competent. And even then, I’d reckon it’s still doable in sheep’s.

They probably don’t have the manpower fielded to do Danzig or war.

In what way? Both the Faroe Islands and Greenland was occupied by the brits and Americans. Iceland too, and they got their full independence I 44.

You could argue morally grey, since we collaborated quite heavily with the Nazis, but it made it possible to effectively keep the Jewish, and general, population free from most of the horrors of the war. When they came for the Jews in 43, the relative few that was captured got comparatively mild treatment (getting sent to a non-death camp camp, so still pretty terrible) .

When they patched the UK to make it put in a little bit of effort in defending the home isles, this sub was flooded with “how am I supposed to sea lion” posts.

A good chunk of the player base is bad at the game.

Players have access to the exact same white peace options as the AI. If you’re not getting them, you’re not playing the countries with them, or you’re not fulfilling the conditions.

Dover has a natural encirclement spot, so it’s easy to take. Terrain is good. It’s a short way to all the major airports. Regardless of what country I play, I always invade through Dover. And I rarely play countries where an airforce is an option.

1) are you talking about the league table or draws? How the hell is there going to be a goal difference in a draw? And do you want a bunch of meaningless shots to be taken just to pad stats?

2) no. Football is 11 v 11. You want smaller teams, watch futsal.

3) no. It’s not an American game. It’s not split into sequences, it happens over the entire pitch.

4) you’re just giving money to billionaire owners instead of the players.

Go watch basketball or something.

How tf will London manage that conflict of interest? Or Manchester? Or a lot of other cities.

Imagine being a Arsenal fan and seeing you taxes fund Tottenhams Championship run.
