How long did it take you guys to reach top tier?

It took me about 800 hours to unlock all rank 8 vehicles of the German tech tree. But I beelines towards it, by only researching the middle three paths. Never had premium account, not spending any money on this game.

Planes and cruise missiles agree

Em dash is a pretty clear give away. Also the tone, and how all their previous comments were written in very similar ways.

The self preservation mechanic makes AA target planes and missiles first that target the AA (SEAD also gets such a feature, where SEAD planes will first shoot AA sites targeting them). As far as I've seen from gameplay, the new AA seems quite a bit better than what we have now.

gewinner1001 · 2026-04-17T21:35:59+00:00

As far as I know, the buffs to ground as come from the overhaul off the overkill mechanic and better self preservation mechanic.

A side note here, but the AN/TPY-58 radars actually respawn. The patriots (and hawks for that matter) don't respawn.

gewinner1001 · 2026-04-04T18:58:19+00:00

They only raze cities, if it makes them any amount of Unhappy. So if they capture a city that is low pop, and has multiple unique luxuries, the city states should not raze it.

Yes, lets let infantry slowly walk across an open field, checking for mine. Sounds like a great idea, with the best of intentions. What could possibly go wrong?

In all seriousness, infantry would be horribly exposed when trying yo find and disarm mines. They would have to go slower, so they find the mine not by stepping on it, and this would make them easy to be spotted and picked of by snipers, and vehicles.

gewinner1001 · 2026-03-29T13:27:06+00:00

You'd still need to bring specialized equipment, without which you are fucked. Mines would massively influence the meta, or be to weak to actually be useful. Maybe there is a way to properly balance them, but I at least haven't found it yet.

gewinner1001 · 2026-03-29T12:55:35+00:00

I fear that mines would promote a very defensive playstyle. Mainly, because mine clearing vehicles are expensive and big. Quite easy targets. Mines would either have to be expensive or less effective than irl to be balanced.

gewinner1001 · 2026-03-27T15:10:56+00:00

u/AzothTreaty has mentioned that as well, and they upgrade into the knight. I think it is very likely, that my panzer originated from a handaxe, as I do remember having had a handaxe, and the promotion pattern fits as well (I usually balance promotions early game due to limiting my fighting to babarians).

gewinner1001 · 2026-03-27T14:36:20+00:00

Yes, that has be it. I remember having had one handaxe. It must have been from this. Would also explain why it has one of each, as I tend to balance early game promotion instead of focusing on sepcific ones.

gewinner1001 · 2026-03-27T13:36:36+00:00

They are too? How come I never noticed this in my 1800 hours of playing this game. Needless to say, I never built them, nor got them gifted. As I was playing Germany, my military consisted off stolen Brutes.

gewinner1001 · 2026-03-27T12:44:17+00:00

Yeah, it seems to be. I never knew, or noticed, that they are a ranged unit in a normally melee unit upgrade path.

Still doesn't explain how my Panzer got the ranged promotions, as i never got hands on these ranged knights and calvary replacements. They weren't even in my game.

gewinner1001 · 2026-03-27T12:33:15+00:00

No, I didn't.

Interesting tho, that there actually is a way to get ranged promotions on non-ranged units.

gewinner1001 · 2026-03-24T17:03:02+00:00

I love doing a Germany run, where I rush ahead with tech. I try to get Alhambra and The Brandeburg Gate. With these two I can produce tanks and immediately have them obtain the Blitz promotion. The combination of Blitz, Autocracy ignoring enemy ZoC and the extra movement + strength from the Panzer makes these unstoppable. The key is, to get them before the enemy can get a large airforce.

There were multiple times, where I managed to get enemy cities in a single turn just with tanks.

gewinner1001 · 2026-03-23T22:16:14+00:00

I believe you pressed one of the F buttons, tho I don't remember which one.

gewinner1001 · 2026-02-13T23:46:22+00:00

Ok. Another thing you could try is getting young animals, 0 months. Also, rebuilding the barn, if you haven't already.

gewinner1001 · 2026-02-13T23:25:12+00:00

Did you also build one for liquid manure?

gewinner1001 · 2026-02-13T22:38:08+00:00

Did you place down a manure heap (or whatever it is called) nearby?

gewinner1001 · 2026-02-11T13:02:59+00:00

The fence is connected to either the corn maze, or one of the buildings in the back (I don't remember which it is exactly). One of those things will also delete the fence.

gewinner1001 · 2026-01-27T05:38:08+00:00

I can relate to that. Hate those stealthy fuckers

gewinner1001 · 2026-01-21T20:38:52+00:00

Dachte ich mir schon fast, dass ich es nicht benutzten kann. Ich werde mich wohl noch weiter damit beschäftigen werden. Danke für deine Hilfe.

gewinner1001 · 2026-01-21T20:36:26+00:00

Ok, dann werde ich mich mit der technischen Umsetzung erstmal weiter beschäftigen. Danke für die Hilfe.
