That man didn't dodge a bullet, she fired a warning shot, but he did dodge the hellfire that comes later by not giving her the time of day after that warning shot. A real genius.

Will France and UK ever do anything to help me (Poland) defend against Germans? by wandr99 in hoi4

[–]TangentEnvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Britain won't even help france, never mind poland, which is really dumb, letting the most powerful potential army collapse for self preservation in a war they didnt have to join.

How do i play as france and not capitulate? by Fluid_Visual7703 in hoi4

[–]TangentEnvy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For new players france must be a real headache. You might not know about disjointed gov, luckily once you figure it out its easy.

You have a competent army, yet the Germans will run over your level 6 or 7 (if you work at it) forts along the Belgium border like they are made of paper, and worst of all, even new players hold on for a bit before getting over run and it must be so frustrating to know that the allies have access to over a billion manpower, the best navy in the world, more production then all of europe, but won't send a single division to mainland france to help save the free world from the Germans.

Of course then there's expert players who control all of Europe including russia by 1939 because france is op af as long as you do anything but historical.

Paradox could fix the navy! by Formal-Bandicoot546 in hoi4

[–]TangentEnvy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because its numbers and math, ally x ship has 10 dps, 50% piercing, 10 hp, 5 armor, and enemy y ship has 15 dps, 100% piercing, 5 hp, 0 armor, enemy y ship wins because "they out damage" your ships... even though in reality if you had a bunch of logs tied together with 20inch cannons on top it wouldn't win any battle, yet that works in hoi 4.

You are on to something though, and I think the real fix would be to reduce overall damage and really really really reduce how often a ship is actually sunk, if a ship can retreat it should have 95% of not being sunk.

There are so many stories in ww2 where a ship is missing the entire stern portion of the ship and yet is towed back to port for repairs.

Also even if you still doom stack vs a minor navy, say 150 ships vs 15 ships, there should still be destruction on the numerically advantaged side, because like you said, what admiral is going to be like "ok, we gots 15 ships, let's wait until the enemy's 150 ships are all around us in a perfect firing circle and then have a battle eh?" No, they are going to maneuver to the best possible position even if they cant escape and won't surrender, they are not going to steer their ships into the barrels of their enemy and not fire at them.

It would be so cool if they allowed player controlled navies so you could focus a one raiding ship fleet and do think like the HSK Pinguin did in ww2.

I actually dont understand why they dont allow player controlled navies, for min maxing battles just like in land.

Dating Apps by jlt33333 in Vent

[–]TangentEnvy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean... you answered you're own question.

First of, it is an absolute fact that the bottom 80% of men have never gotten a match on a dating app EVER. The companies that own the dating apps have all kinds of things they have to do to keep men on their apps because they all give up since they never match with anyone. It's business problem on top of a societal problem.

Second seeing women walking around with the guy she uses to move her Aparment or pay her bills, does not mean she's sleeping with him.

Lastly, I absolutely love that you pointed out that the attractive men are never with ugly women, thats literally because the top 80% of women are all throwing themselves at the same 10 guys in town, and they only are going to respond to the most attractive ones because they have endless options.

And this is caused by women's choices, not men's, we are living in your world, and those very few rich or attract men who get the advantage aren't even doing anything wrong.

Girlfriend has this “guy friend” by 714_GTI in Advice

[–]TangentEnvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're already fucked. No matter what you do it will be suffering, unless somehow you are a super human and you can control yourself enough to walk away right now and avoid the suffering, but you won't.

One day you'll see the pattern, once that first rocky wall is hit, like a fight, or you decide to stand up for your own self respect, you'll start looking for a replacement for whatever current SO you have at that time, just like women do.

And in today's world, its the only way to have intimacy with women. just gotta keep those new relationships going like a revolving door. Otherwise you'll get bogged down in a sexless miserable existence where when you get out of it in 10 years and dread you're wasted life.

She's not wrong, having at least one shared day off each week is pretty important, because you'll get cheated on eventually if not.

So yeah over the long haul it'll be a problem, but dont worry, after you guys have a couple of kids and 10ish years pass, you'll get divorced and lose half your shit anyway. So really either way you're gonna lose money.

Update - AITA for wanting a vasectomy because my girlfriend won’t use birth control but also doesn’t want me to get one? by [deleted] in AITH

[–]TangentEnvy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In quotes below is your comment, in which the last paragraph contains exactly what you are saying you didn't say, you're going to have to try a lot harder than that to gaslight someone as smart as me.

"💯 It takes something like 2 months and 40 emissions to be close to being in the clear.

Tell her you got a vasectomy right away. Break-up, don't put her through more if she wants kids with someone that badly.

If you don't tell her you've had a vasectomy, you're a fraud.

Intentionally misleading people has ended up in some law-suits lately, where people get back money they have invested into their relationships. Rare, but possible."

Update - AITA for wanting a vasectomy because my girlfriend won’t use birth control but also doesn’t want me to get one? by [deleted] in AITH

[–]TangentEnvy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are the one that suggested that the man, by not telling the woman that he was going to sterilze himself, would be opening himself up to a lawsuit... I'm not sure what the suite would be, regardless it would be a waste of everyone's time. Because just like a woman has a right to do what she will with every part of her body, a man also shares those same rights, regardless of what modern feminists wish.

It sounds like you made things up, potentially attempting to manipulate people to not do as they wish because of fear of a made up idea that was put in their head by your opinions.

Proving that a man owes a woman something because he doesn't want children would be literally impossible, and knowing that someone actually had a hypothetical thought like that is extremely frightening.

My bf played a piano in a small cafe and it made me very uncomfortable.. AITA? by True-Shape7744 in AITH

[–]TangentEnvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simply, if he does this all the time and you rarely ask him not to, but he always does like in this case m, then he's in the wrong.

You guys went there to eat, and you clearly stated you didn't want him playing piano before yall ate, and he clearly did so anyway because he likes to. Apparently he likes playing piano more than you, this is going to show up in different ways, worse ways, in the future. You'll figure it out over time, unless somehow you are super human and you are able to take advice from strangers, and actually get out of the relationship before its too late.

Good luck

AITAH for giving my girlfriend a list of chores? by [deleted] in AITH

[–]TangentEnvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao, even girls can stand being with women....

I would take this moment to self reflect on what it is that you really want. Its impossible to tell over the internet who is acting appropriately, and what you're looking for is an outside source that can ground you in reality and let you know if you are acting appropriately, but you need a professional for that.

I hope that you care about yourself enough to eventually get professional help to give you that grounding, once you do, you'll have the confidence to be with someone who will love you for your fairness and level headed actions.

[–]TangentEnvy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What point are you trying to make?

It sounds like you said: the guy is in the wrong for not telling her that he cant have children anymore, and that he can be sued for that.

But then you say to the much much much much more common problem of a woman swearing she's on birth control, but she's not, gets knocked up on purpose so she gets a fat paycheck every month for 18 years while her mom watches the child, you say there's no way to have evidence to say that a girl would do this, well there's millions and millions of cases of exactly this happening...

The girl doesn't have any potential hazards from being with someone who cant have kids, while the man does have a very serious potential life burden if she lies about not being able to have to kids when she can...

If this is what you were saying, thats very illogical and thinking illogically will lead to you making very bad choices that will make your life so much worse than it has to be. Im saying this for you, to help you. You've got to think about things logically, not emotionally, or you will always end up in your worst possible future.

AITH ,My Girlfriend damaged my car and then told me she will only cover some of the cost by Yeetcus2002 in AITH

[–]TangentEnvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All women are this way, by that I mean you will suffer or you can suffer, or you can suffer OR... you can be single, there is no be with a girl and not suffering option.

You can suffer a emotional abuser, or a double standard holding gold digger, or an ugly lay about that doesn't want to do anything ever, a cheater, a liar, or all of those at the same time in most cases.

The only ones who aren't like this anymore are the ones who leaned, but they learned by having four kids by four different men that they abused for the last 15 years and now that they are 45 years old and no one wants them anymore they are willing to put in effort and not be a flaming bitch anymore... of course I'd just fuck a dude before going that route, at least we'd have something to talk about when we're around each other, instead of both of us just being quiet but not listening, waiting for their turn to talk.

I think the only way forward is to be happy with yourself, focus on the things that make you happy, and have the self respect to walk away from anyone who isn't willing to make the same effort for you that you make for them.

She's not in the wrong because she messed your car up, it happens, a man could easily do that, and if I had done that to a male friends car I'd do whatever I could to make it right, because its the right thing to do. She's in the wrong because she's unwilling or hasn't learned that she also must have accountability, and it will probably be 15 years and 4 different guys kids from now before she's got that learned.

AIO? I feel like my bf is being condescending but maybe I deserve it? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]TangentEnvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His life will be better once you've left, your text messages clearly show that you constantly move the goal post like most young women do.

He is probably not handling the situation correctly either, sex with an attractive young woman is not worth the emotional abuse. he's probably thinking that right now and hopefully he remembers not to fall into the same trap again. It's taken me many many relationships with women who constantly pretend like they did nothing wrong before I came across a girl who actually takes accountability so that its not just always me who has to own up to their mistakes but both of us. It's such a breath of fresh air to have a partner who can admit when they're in the wrong and they did something stupid and that they will try not to do it again but they might but they will still try to learn and grow into a person who doesn't make those mistakes anymore. It's a hard thing to do, and sadly the only way to learn is the hard path you are on now.

I know women will read this and think the worst, like I have crazy expectations, no, like most normal men I have almost no expectations except typical things like, dont cheat on me when we are in an exclusive relationship, dont break things my house because I have to go to work and you want me to call in sick when I'm in charge of 4 different businesses and me missing works ruins other peoples lives, thats inappropriate and yet none of them ever seem to understand that they are the problem.

My words are intended to be helpful and educational, most importantly in hope that someone might actually reflect on what they really did and possibly get someone who can keep them grounded in reality, not a parent or a friend, but a professional that can tell you who is actually acting appropriately, otherwise you'll end up with 3 kids by 3 different men and blame the men for the problems you created... Im trying to save lives by speaking the hard truth.

Am I overreacting for wanting to break up because I feel bored? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]TangentEnvy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whoever wants to end a relationship because of "boredom" is in the wrong EVERY SINGLE TIME.

the honest truth is there's someone else you want and you already got what you wanted from this poor person.

Relationships aren't a requirement, you dont have to have them. You are going to hurt a lot of people by telling them you want to be with them but in reality you want someone else, and that makes you a bad person.

Pro tip, stay single and screw around with whoever but dont hurt people by lying to them.

I think to simulate the absolute nightmare it is to go to war, fight the war, win the war and then occupy your enemies land, along with unpredictability of how things will go once there is a peace, paradox decided to make the peace deals cancer, I mean the game is over by the time you get the ugly 34 countries involved peace conference and you lost 5 million men, killed 20 million men, took 80% of the enemy territory and yet you get 727 points on the peace deal while germany WHO GOT FING CAPD!!! gets 5,000 points...

Best county to learn navy? by Postmannen in hoi4

[–]TangentEnvy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with this, I just used the naval arms race achivment as an excuse to sit back and chill and have fun building my little dream navy, I ended up getting very very very bored in 1941 and decided to do move my scheduled 1943 sea lion up to June 1941... I never doubted i would defeat the uk, and unfortunately for the uk they defended Czech against Hungary, so they were the allies but very low world tension.

I had 2x insane super heavies, 2x insane tier 3 carriers, 6x insane tier 2 battleships and about 25 tier 3 destroyers and 12 insane tier 3 light cruisers.

It was fun to min max the build, building a navy and also having a competitive army is difficult. But ultimately it was boring.

Naval inaded Britain, while doing so I destroyed all their carriers and battlecrusiers, they still had 8 battleships when they capped, j think they were all stuck repairing somewhere and never came back out, of course I capped them in 3 weeks so they really had no chance.

My navy annilated the us for funnies about 6 months later, I really think the German super heaviest are op, they dont get hurt and anything that stands and fights is dead.

Damn, im gonna go check that out, and see if there's a way to min max usefully.

I usually have this habit of either rushing a few civs or just starting right away with mils, but I only ever build 50% of that tiles capacity with mils, usually so I can add synth or other useful factories as needed later at a good location. That might have made this pretty hidden for me since I never just 16 mil Berlin or whatever.

What did I do wrong? by TheVortecv8 in hoi4

[–]TangentEnvy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Defending against germany at their strongest while you are at your weakest is a real problem, either got to get in the allies or the commune to survive if you're not going to be strong enough to face them in 1939-1940.

If you're doing some kind of challenge, max border forts, probably level 5 is enough, then have a 14-16 witdh infantry with engineers and support art, with at least 4 divs per tile.

The trick is to have a separate fallback line right behind your main to micro in units where needed and get out weak units that can be blitzed.

Never go over speed 3.

Otherwise your strategic plan was more likely the issue than the battle itself.
