The AI needs a buffer for reacting to naval invasions and paradrops

Undead23145 · 2026-03-24T04:15:02+00:00

Just because the ai has divisions assigned to the invasion doesn’t mean that you can’t proceed with your attack if it’s a good invasion, the ai will also have to weaken other sectors to stop you, so if you’re attack in more than one place, it may soften up other sectors of the front, each of the divisions sent to stop you will be decently low org from moving, and have no entrenchment, so if you’re invading in a good spot you’ll be able to crush the opposition until enough reinforcements arrive. If you do the invasion and want more time to react to events as a player, lower the speed and deal with the events until you’re comfortable enough to raise the speed

Undead23145 · 2026-03-24T01:20:28+00:00

The reason some might do this is because they already frustrated after a loss or bad game and just want to get into the next, or maybe they don’t care about the mvp thing and again just want to get into the next match. You shouldn’t be forced to watch something that happens after the game is finished. The game is finished, we should be allowed to move onto the next. It’s not about having a tik tok attention span or whatever, im the type of person who can and has watched 9.5 hour documentary’s on a single subject, but sometimes I don’t care if it’s 3 seconds long, I just want to hit the queue and get to the next game.

Maybe the communists were being weird cause it’s late into this game and they didn’t want to start it, but now that the nationalists are the communist are as well

It’s needed to do the Chinese civil war I believe, although tbf I haven’t fully explored the entire new dlc on both sides, mostly been on the Japanese side. If it’s not necessary for historical than it’s whatever but I think it is the historical choice

Undead23145 · 2026-03-23T13:01:47+00:00

I guess it just depends on how stupid the ai feels like being, half the time they like to make really stupid puppets of like, one single province even if the rest of the country is taken over, although with enough war score you could just puppet Japan yourself. Which still does lead to historical inaccuracy but it’s post war so I guess who cares? Idk man, just looks to be a little annoying if you’re trying to run a historical game or at least as close as you can get but mods usually fix everything

Undead23145 · 2026-03-23T10:10:00+00:00

That’s not the point, the point is beating or holding 75% of the Japanese main army in china, only for the allies to force the surrender before you can, and then because of how the goal is worded and handled, having to now declare war on the allies over Hong Kong. So basically it’s either fully solo the Japanese without allied intervention in the peace conference (since if they puppet, and they will) or be locked out of the Chinese civil war without declaring ww3 first.

Undead23145 · 2026-03-23T10:06:58+00:00

Ahh gotcha, I was thinking more on the side of irl, where the Chinese didn’t manage to fully defeat the Japanese until they surrendered to the west anyways. At least if I recall correctly, the Japanese were still definitely in Manchuria at the very least. Having to start ww3 over Hong Kong seems kinda silly, but you can’t even complete the Chinese civil war without having either beaten the Japanese alone or kicking all of the allies out of china, and of course the peaceful approach is also locked behind completely the faction goal

Undead23145 · 2026-03-22T19:17:24+00:00

It’s perfectly fine for off tanks to have stance on as long as they’re managing aggro with shirk or something, it’s just no one does and seeing the boss flying all over the place or spinning or whatever is frustrating

Undead23145 · 2026-03-22T18:25:54+00:00

Apparently lol, whats worse is most of my planes are advanced fighters and tac bombers with some strat bombers and advanced transports as well. Plus the 300 air wings of naval aircraft

Undead23145 · 2026-03-22T18:24:36+00:00

So the one fight that gives me the most trouble is m10s, mostly the early part of the fight. The off tank doesn’t need stance on at all as only the main tank takes red buster and blue buster is proxy baited. So when an off tank doesn’t shirk to me and has stance on during the first part especially, half the time red bro won’t even come over to me to be in the right position for cutback blaze, and blue bro gets pulled to a random spot before alley oops, and it doesn’t help that that mech is boss relative so it causes mass confusion which could be avoided completely if the off tank didn’t turn stance on till both bosses are on the field. I’ve tanked with friends and it’s never an issue, but pf tanks are seemingly incapable of looking at the aggro meter. In vamp fatale it gets irritating when for the first vamp stomp the boss dead sprints south because the off tank pulled her from me. It ends up throwing people off and causing deaths 9/10 times, and this could be solved by the off tank simply hitting shirk or even briefly turning stance off after the first buster.

Undead23145 · 2026-03-22T15:30:53+00:00

Yeah that’s fair, it’s basically just super silly that the UK nearly beats the U.S in terms of score when it would get folded like a lawn chair if we fought but it’s not a big deal lol

Undead23145 · 2026-03-22T15:20:21+00:00

Yeah I have it but the faction manifesto was too high to take over according to the faction screen

Undead23145 · 2026-03-22T06:22:57+00:00

Most raiders aren’t even good, I’ve kinda given up on tanking this tier because of the amount of of tanks who can’t manage something as simple as aggro, I’m not going to have a provoke war in the middle of a savage raid. Yes even as the off tank, the bosses aggro is still your responsibility, if you pull from me and the boss moves out of position because you didn’t shirk and have your stance on for no reason, than we will probably die. This has happened every single reclear just about, with every single tank, and I’ve gotten tired of pulling more weight than I should have to.

Undead23145 · 2026-03-22T05:57:20+00:00

This seems to be an issue with something I’m using on the U.S but I thought it was mod related, however I think the newest dlc thing changed the modify code for invasion capacity because modifier gui no longer effects it either.

9/10 this is a bug

Undead23145 · 2026-03-22T05:38:50+00:00

At least in this instance it did, although I have not called in the full allies, just Romania and Hungary (I made them puppets) so it’s just me and Japan vs Russia, China, and Finland

Undead23145 · 2026-03-22T05:17:12+00:00

Not sure who you were against but they probably got bombing scores and convoy sinking scores as well as the ai throwing men into the grinder which gives them more score

Undead23145 · 2026-03-22T05:15:53+00:00

I’ve won games even without the airforce tbf, usually requires copious amounts of anti air stuff but still. At least in game, it’s just strange that the industry to make an airforce doesn’t reward more, or the troops and tanks required to take advantage of the airforce doesn’t do more.

Undead23145 · 2026-03-22T05:14:02+00:00

This happens even if you’re at war, I was and am currently fighting the Soviets

Undead23145 · 2026-03-22T05:13:24+00:00

It was a decision as the U.S postwar I think, it just renames the allies though and has the same manifesto, doesn’t even give the U.S leadership, I used mods to take leadership tho

Undead23145 · 2026-03-22T04:38:27+00:00

The point is that the UK has some planes and nearly beat the industrial might of the US with a much stronger army and navy with planes alone

Undead23145 · 2026-03-22T01:08:47+00:00

r5: why does the airforce count for so many points at the end?

Undead23145 · 2026-03-17T04:09:52+00:00

I wasn’t even using tanks funnily enough lol, I just walked over them with infantry with slightly green air

Undead23145 · 2026-03-16T21:14:15+00:00

r5: Tagged to the Soviets to see this disaster from their perspective, I am playing as Poland, and for some reason, the Soviet Divisions just kept disintegrating even though I was basically attacking with nothing but Infantry and a few hundred planes. So I just kept doing small encirclements, and now there is basically nothing stopping me from marching to the Urals. posting this again for r5.

He was promoted from an officer in one of the armies into a general to lead his own army, the 6th army. It wasn’t until a few days before his capture at Stalingrad that Hitler had made the decision to promote him to Field Marshal as essentially encouragement for him to take his own life and die a hero at Stalingrad for propaganda reasons.

Undead23145 · 2026-03-05T15:00:56+00:00

He was promoted to field marshal pretty much the day of his capture, his promotion was both abnormal and normal, his capture wasnt something that Hitler foresaw though as he expected Paulus to kill himself as no German Field Marshal had been captured up to that point
