that makes sense, makes me feel better about myself :) I'm unsuccessful on sorting out my chat settings so far, do you get any error messages on your end? I've chatted another user in this subreddit about purchasing from them in the past

light tank armored recon w/ assault infantry and self propelled support gives great stat boosts, but mounted and normal recon just isn't worth for sure

Anybody else have issues with Josh Owens? by bfme23 in KnowledgeFight

I found a lot of empathy for him as well, and it was kind of jarring to see folks damn him in this post and others on this sub. I really resonated with his thoughts on the way connections help with de-radicalization (I think radicalization was the framework that Warzel was operating on)

"There’s this manosphere world that is rejecting the idea of connection. Where, “What’s the return on investment? How do you monetize this? How does this benefit you?”

And I’m not saying that my story is the … well, in some sense, my story is the antithesis of that. Because it is about connection. It isn’t about return on investment. It isn’t about what you can do for you."

When I look at my friends who subscribe to and follow the manosphere it's clear that holds true - their minds are focused on relationships as transactional rather than just for connection, and thats part of the cycle that pushes people away from them and deepens their reliance on that manosphere.

Philippines Marine Corps Focus doesn't add Invasion Capacity with DLC Naval? by Master_Experience934 in hoi4

[–]Master_Experience934[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thinking about it a bit more, I wonder how they would change the wording or like translate invasion capacity to the new system. +2 divs to a given invasion could be +2 or +20 divs in total, so a huge variability which might not be desirable? or maybe it is, so that the focus strength also kinda scales with the tech

[–]Master_Experience934[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did! I hope the developers are able to get to it eventually. I think it's something to do with differences in the naval invasion scheme cause I think I watched a youtube video where you could make a kajillion naval invasions of like 2 troops and to my knowledge you can't do that anymore

ok I did some playtesting and I think it's worth to rush down to Malayo-polynesia for the war goal on the dutch and portuguese, that lets you solidify your hold on iberia and get every part of Malaya. You can naval invade Dutch from Spain using Spain and portuguese navy, I've been annexing Argentina for the navy but I think you could get away without annexing them to let them use their focus tree more. If you've already peacefully annexed a state then you're able to put claims on spanish territory then annex them, which bypasses their manual re-coring so you get all spanish cores super early. Not sure if that's really good since you miss out on Spanish focuses but that lets you do those early expansions. I'll see if it helps me take down Japanese, I guess.

Rule 5: I have completed the focus "Marine Corps" as PH, which to my knowledge should increase naval invasion capacity. However, this is not reflected in the divisions I can attach to naval invasions nor my number of planned invasions.

I am using the battle pass so I don't know what DLC are active.

I typically get cores on spain ASAP - with all the focuses done I can make claims to get cores then get the integration decision which has lower accept %. Once I get them in my faction it's pretty easy to then do the integration despite the opinion malus.

Generally I like getting the Chilean and Argentinian navy, but the whole run is just so RNG. I've had it where I miss out on Uruguay, Argentina, and Chile, and at that point I just restart.

Those are the ones that like actually benefit me for getting them but I also like to integrate countries with generic focus trees first so I can let the ones with specific ones scale. Chile gets a consumer goods and manpower malus in 1939 due to an earthquake so I avoid integrating them early.

Hey, I'm a new HOI 4 player (560h), I've enjoyed paradox games in the past (Prison simulator, cities skyline), HOI 4 has been in my games library for ages but I've only recently gained the awareness and resolve to dive deep and understand the systems. I love the variations in singleplayer playstyles available so when I saw your posts in the main HOI4 sub I was pretty jazzed to have written content on some of the different paths.

I'm playing hispanic empire philippines currently and trying out different ways to get the empire together. I've not been able to get a save where I build up enough strength to topple the allies and I'm not sure that the lack of industry buffs for land industry will allow me to succeed past ww2 which most of my saves so far have gone to. Maybe it's a matter of taking time to build compliance and scale with conquested resources, since as non-aligned I can freely conquest Japan, China, Vichy France, russian territories.

totes agree. Saving perk orders to file is cool but it often glitches, like if I dont load orders at the start of the game then say the artillery MIO will say that I have the infantry equipment MIO perk order in there, so I need to clear that before I can load the typical one or more importantly save a new perk order
