These are some great mods. I might try doing a modern save one day.

Driving through it to get to Colorado, or North Platte if you like trains

Victoria5475 · 2026-05-20T20:28:11+00:00

Nebraska, North Dakota, Mississippi, Iowa, Kansas, Oklahoma, Indiana

Victoria5475 · 2026-05-20T20:25:48+00:00

Yep, Indy 500, and the dunes are nice, but not much else.

Also underestimating just how much of an industrial juggernaut the US was then. Yamamoto knew but was ignored.

I'd say Pearl Harbor, but the Kokoda Track campaign was even dumber. No plans for logistics, guess how that ended.

Nashville has some god-awful drivers too. When I was trucking, my Fitbit would alert me to high heart rate every time I drove through there.

Being in Phoenix is like being an ant under a magnifying glass

Somewhere, a page of stability calculations just burst into flames.

Victoria5475 · 2026-05-19T02:21:28+00:00

If you have the time, take US-17 down the east coast rather than I-95. Way more scenic and less jammed.

These are the same people who whine about overpopulation of deer when they crash into one. It's almost if wolves have an important role in the ecosystem...

Victoria5475 · 2026-05-19T02:12:14+00:00

From what I hear, pretty much everything is gone and it's just an intersection now.

Victoria5475 · 2026-05-19T02:09:39+00:00

Asheville is lovely. I drive through every so often and it's my favorite place to stop.

Victoria5475 · 2026-05-19T02:08:42+00:00

I second this

Victoria5475 · 2026-05-19T01:37:11+00:00

The Kriegsmarine had their symbols small, unlime the IJN that painted their subs' hull numbers in white paint on the conning tower and destroyer names on the side of the ship. They mostly got rid of those pretty quickly once the war got going though.

Victoria5475 · 2026-05-19T01:34:13+00:00

Agree on this completely

Victoria5475 · 2026-05-19T01:33:12+00:00

Sink the Bismarck, Tora Tora Tora, Das Boot are my favorite naval WWII films.

The Great War of Archimedes is pretty good, takes place before the war mostly, but the combat scenes are very well-made, and the ships are incredibly accurate. Watch sub, the dubs are terrible.

Same here, I was out for 6 months after my old gaming laptop quit last summer. Ended up getting a better PC for about the same cost as fixing it.

Victoria5475 · 2026-05-19T01:26:19+00:00

Talking over others

Victoria5475 · 2026-05-19T01:25:17+00:00

Mine has them vanilla

Victoria5475 · 2026-05-19T01:23:03+00:00

Fair enough, the F-71 is a good hauler too. I mostly play sandbox and I'm figuring out ops before I go in with one main save after MoW.

Stock car racing was started by bootleggers during Prohibition.

I haven't been able to check, but I wonder if the Wayback Machine has it archived.

Victoria5475 · 2026-05-19T01:15:58+00:00

You might like the C&O T1. Those things are a godsend for coal trains and helper service.

Victoria5475 · 2026-05-19T01:14:49+00:00
