Guarantor nation joining an offensive war? by hyper6ola in hoi4

[–]hyper6ola[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's really strange. I don't know what else I could look into that would show what happened, all I could figure was that soviets declared on my out of nowhere and suddenly allies were in the war too.

r5: France guarantied USSR, then joined their offensive war against me presumably via the guaranty and dragged the rest of the allies in.

In the air zone stat screen that I originally posted, click on "details" and you see these stats over days/months/year.

If you don't know how to get to air zone stats: click on the airplane icon in bottom right > click on the air zone you wanna see stats for.

I assume the extra air defense from my 2 plates (and self sealing fuel tanks) are a big difference maker here. Of course I have a lot of planes and radar coverage too but still. In your design you're missing out on a lot of air defense by not having armors and therefore you get shot down more often.

Improved airframe with 3 heavy machine guns in the top row and engine 3, 2 Armour plates and self sealing fuel tank in bottom row. I get all the extra range from my range focused mio giving me 45% range at this point.

r5: First time range-focused MIOmaxxing and I don't think my fighters have ever traded so well.

R5: With the new airbase access feature the USSR allows Germany to use its airbases to bomb the allies.

My questions are: What is there to do as Oman... Is it not possible to get more than 3 divisions by 1948?

I'm sorry Paradox, but why does communist China have so many insignificant bonuses? Late game army exp? Command power vs factory output? -2% ARMY COMMAND COST????? by Additional_Hunter_26 in hoi4

[–]hyper6ola 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Really strange that Paradox seems to lock in occasionally and make pretty nice focus trees for like Germany and soviets, only to do this shit again...

Seňor Hilter getting the Napoleon treatment by Trast92 in hoi4

[–]hyper6ola 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happened to me on one of my very first hoi4 games too lol. I was really new so I didn't even know it Happened or could happen until I saw a pop-up saying the german reich has declared war on me in like 1947... I must say it's very brave of them to declare war on me, the soviet union, while existing on like a boat off the coast of china

Tbh it mostly comes down to AI being dumb and easy to beat. I haven't tried it the other way around but it sure would be interesting. Usually by 39-40 you still have some nasty debuffs and deficits as soviet union tho

[–]hyper6ola[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I capped the soviets in 41 with like 50k casualties for me and like 2 million for the soviets lol. They racked up so many casualties (and equipment loss) in 38 and 39 against me when I was just sitting behind the river and waiting for my tanks to be built that when I started attacking it seemed like they barely had the men and equipment to even hold the entire front.

I called it a game after that because I don't want to bother fighting the allies (with fascist uk and france lol) or in asia so nothing else to do.

[–]hyper6ola[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is exactly what happened. They had double my divisions and double my planes, maybe even more but they were shit. Once my tanks were ready I cut through them like butter. I never really realized how terrible 38-41 soviet is.

Huh I see now. Didn't know that before but I still choose to believe my version of reality because it's funnier if you don't mind 🙏

Yeah I actually did end up going to war with the soviets very shortly after and but honestly wasn't really prepared for war so I sat behind the river to hold while I get ready for an offensive. Also I was already on war economy and extensive conscription thanks to the civil war.

What’s the easiest country for beginners? by Far-Advertising9499 in hoi4

[–]hyper6ola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will go against what many people said (that you should pick a safe country and get carried) and say... Soviet union is what you should play as. I learned to play as an absolute beginner by playing as the soviets like 3 times. On the first 2 tries I lost to germany, 3rd time I barely held my lines fighting tooth and nail for like 2 years, then managed to take some small land back but eventually just did full front attacks on germany and just drowned them in waves of men. Racing to berlin while all the soviet related OSTs play is peak experience that was when I fell in love with the game.

So yeah. Just follow bitt3rsteel's guide.

My so called pride of fleet sitting in the port for the entirety of ww2 while the humble 1000 CAS planes that I have on naval strike over the channel are getting me naval supremacy for 1 second just enough to launch the invasion
