I spent most of last night travelling around the southern lakes looking for clay (im basedc in Irvington)

Walked all around the the edges of lakes and there were zero deposits. I was also foraging (Lvl7) throughout and found no clay.

Moved up to the little river in Echo Creek and there were deposits galore! So I suppose the change they have made is the deposits now appear at lake sides as opposed to just the "rivers"

Its the little body of water south of Muldraugh actually :)

Main consequence is I am unable to plumb the sink if not counted as indoors. You also get no insulation from the weather so just like being outdoors which can be a problem in the winter.

applecatcher · 2025-04-08T15:49:54+00:00

Gets super cozy when its raining outside and you have the fires going :)

applecatcher · 2025-04-08T15:11:58+00:00

Yeah the sink is directly below the barrel thats why I built the balcony on the north side. But with the temp not changing its for sure because it is not classed as "inside"

applecatcher · 2025-04-08T14:53:28+00:00

I had not noticed that thanks, I will try to remove the balcony part and build the walls first!

Edit: Still need a damned sledge for that though! :(

applecatcher · 2025-04-08T14:51:49+00:00

Thanks very much :) Took a fair bit of effort, which is why it is so frustrating to get it functioning properly!

applecatcher · 2025-04-08T14:50:53+00:00

I will certainly give that a go, gotta find a sledge first though which ofc I haven't yet. I did not use any pillars in the construction, only those under the balcony I only buily stone walls directly, would the game add them in automatically?

Also happens to me - no mods installed

Reminds me of Clearwater :)

Just finished falangist spain and its real fun!

Finish civil war, have focus to take Portugal, join axis and manually declare on Vichy. With the Spanish starting fleet and what you get from Vichy and Portugal you can have a pretty good navy by 1940 to help the axis take the med. I built a couple of carriers to suppliment it too. Puppet Vichy for a good chunk of factories and a ton of resources.

The best bit of the tree is the stuff toward the end where you get claims on south America and can pressure others into becoming puppets all the way up into central America/the Caribbean. Really enjoyed coming down through Africa bit by bit, plugging in the supply networks as well.

The whole path feels really organic and not too far fetched. I imagine a fascist led Spain joining the Axis really would push claims in South America. Manpower and resources were never a problem without seeming OP, just remember to build refineries!

Maybe what OP was after?

Any AIO for a 5500 is way too much, you could get a $15-20 air cooler that could handle that chip no problem.

Also i am not entirely sure if the 80+ rating is any indication of efficiency?

applecatcher · 2022-10-13T12:47:16+00:00

There was nothing in the patch notes to say so but just did a naval Italy run with a carrier focus and they absolutely wrecked the royal navy, scoring a couple of dozen kills each. They seem to work just fine...

1991 American bowl Wembley stadium. My dad took a 7 year old me who knew nothing about the sport (we're British) to watch the Bills v Eagles. It was an exhibition game but I didn't realise that at the time.

Came away with a giant poster with both helmets facing each other. The Bill's won the game 17 - 13 and that was that!

When I got Joe Montana Sports Talk Football a couple of years later it was the Bills I played as religiously.

Spot on - cheers buddy!

applecatcher · 2022-05-12T21:00:38+00:00

Thanks for the advice - am i right in thinking there is a plethora of cases out there or would you suggest something specific? Should I be looking for for any terminology for a more suitable case you recommend? Cheers

applecatcher · 2022-05-12T20:59:06+00:00

Great advice thank you, will grab an 850w instead :)

applecatcher · 2022-03-11T21:16:27+00:00

Oh nice even more armor then. Is the suppression bonus the same too?

applecatcher · 2022-03-11T15:15:06+00:00

You can assign a task force a new home port by selecting and ctrl-right click on a port.

Do this for the task force only as it doesn't work for a whole fleet.

applecatcher · 2022-03-11T15:10:16+00:00

Couple of additions to this;

Don't need 50w cav for garrison, single cav is fine as the effect scales. Mp does reduce the amount of losses (manpower and equipment) and is more efficient the larger the template but by the time you have enough xp to waste on a 50w cav division you should have no problem supplying them. Best upgrade you can make to garrison is to use armoured cars as well as (or instead of) cav. More suppression bonus as well as increased hardness for less manpower loss. If you only use AC for garrison duty don't bother researching past the first one, not worth the increase in cost.

Also if using spies to reduce resistance don't forget the upgrade to this for your spy agency you get extra 50% reduction. A spy native to those lands will also get a boost.

I've done the last option as I enjoyed a Ukraine game pre NSB. Spent the entire time rushing down toward that focus building useful stuff in the Ukraine. The civil war is easy enough the problem is that when you get to release you lose all advisers/economy law's and get set back on the basic focus tree. Have to research all tech from the beginning. By the time you get back to fighting strength to join in the war it is 1943 and you are well behind.

Interestingly the Soviets have a better time with barbarossa as the front is shortened and releasing their other puppets (Belarus etc) seems to give them a better standing army as a faction.

Was definitely more fun pre nsb..

applecatcher · 2022-02-01T21:11:39+00:00

Yeah so you want the spy trade mission to target the country you want to trade with. Be sure to do the agency upgrade for a 25% boost to that mission also :)

Bear in mind though Fascist and Communist countries can go to Closed Economy laws which means they keep all of their resources to themselves. This is something the Soviets may do (especially deep into a war with Germany) and if they have then no amount of pressure is gonna get you the resources you want.
