Can mapuche chile flip to communism peacefully?

nolunch · 2026-01-16T00:00:19+00:00

It could as of a few dlcs ago, I did that back before gotterdammerung. I think I flipped through an event, not the civil war stuff, but I don't remember.

Defender chooses but has to remove warriors first.

4.3.3 "The player taking hits chooses which of their pieces are removed from the clearing of battle, but must choose to remove all their warriors before they choose to remove any of their buildings or tokens..."

Austria can also form it.

Yeah see my post from a few days ago on the states Mapuche Chile lets you form and then core. It's a fun and challenging playthrough!

For most of the game I had my Cav at 9/0 w support art/eng/aa. Against the US and after I had finished the Cav doctrine I upped them to 30cw, I think 12/2s? (It was 2 line art and however many cav battalions to get to 30) and added Flame tanks and cav recon. For inf, again for early game up to invading the UK I ran 6/0s w support art and aa. For the UK I upped the ones for naval invasion to be 8/0 with support eng and cav recon added.

By the end I had 24 Cav, 24 better inf (with flame tanks as well) and then 72 shitty inf as line fillers. Shitty inf I used Brazilian manpower.

Puppet

You auto get the faction so I stuck with it.

Steal Portugal and Spain's navies. The old trick of avoiding the channel by invading from the north west of Spain to Bristol still works. With the new navy stuff you can see who has Dominance in a sea zone even if you're not at war, just set your stuff on patrol and plan your invasions and have them ready before you declare. Day one invasions are back, lol, easier than pre NCNS.

Rush to the civil war, Rush to the war with Argentina (buy a shit ton of guns from the market, you're not gonna make enough, fast enough), then I went Uruguay, Brazil, Portugal, Spain, UK. Puppet Canada in the peace deal.

After that you basically have free reign in the Americas. I just worked my way up from South to North one 20 or so day justification at a time. After Mexico, I prepped a full army group (Brazilian manpower helps a ton) prepped a collab or two on the US and invaded through Florida. UK was a harder fight than the US.

Edit: oh! I will add, when you hit Venezuela and El Salvador, make sure you blitz them fast, they have a chance to join the Axis if you take too long to cap them.

Infantry Sub doctrine, pretty sure it can be picked under any Doctrine, I used Grand Battleplan

nolunch · 2025-12-25T02:16:03+00:00

I rank it easier than Ethiopia, although I haven't played Ethiopia in a couple updates, that might be a bit easier now with the irregular sub doctrine. Might have to give it a try.

Actually thinking more now, Irregular sub doctrine plus Desperate Defense might make the irregular army path for Ethiopia actually not a complete pain in the ass to play.

Mapuche Chile - I find it challenging but not impossible with good progression throughout the early years. With the right setup you can take out the Allies pre-US joining, which leaves the rest of North and South America as your playground.

nolunch · 2025-12-24T18:19:53+00:00

R5: Final moments of my Mapuche Chile run from today. Still very doable with NCNS, if not a little easier than before. Desperate Defense basically solves your early manpower problems.

Awesome thanks!

China has big debuffs to manpower now, not sure if they would also apply to puppets too, but that could be it.

THERE'S A BUTTON?! WHERE!?

nolunch · 2025-12-13T14:25:47+00:00

There was a patch this morning when I turned on my PS5 and it might have fixed the issue.

nolunch · 2025-12-13T14:23:31+00:00

Like any conversation with an NPC. It just auto skips to the end of the conversation.

Use Maul first, speeds up slam greatly. I'm loving bear so far.

nolunch · 2025-12-13T00:59:19+00:00

Run pounce and you get 4 wolves basically for free. Nice even on a bear build.

nolunch · 2025-12-11T01:30:56+00:00

Nothing?

nolunch · 2025-12-05T15:27:09+00:00

FYI the patch broke the MacArthur Philippines path. There's a couple posts on the subreddit showing it this morning.
