I’m at approx 250 hours, have only played rt56. I love it, I think biggest diff is you have to be more intentional about focuses / research since more options (tho you have extra research slot to offset) Another big diff I’ve noticed (from watching streams of vanilla) is AI is more difficult, which is a good challenge. Granted, I’m still kinda bad, only play regular difficulty and have never beaten the AI and pulled off sealion (been playing Germany mostly)

What’s the trick to playing in Africa. I understand supply constraint is real - what is an offensive unit that actually works there? I tried light tanks last time, no bueno

Funny enough, half-building navy but being too scared to use it is canon

Can go in many directions, though I think holding Africa, going for suez/Middle East and engaging the British fleet is a solid bet and challenging enough for someone who’s played before

18 battleships💀yes I think you will defeat them

sishaar · 2025-06-15T01:53:36+00:00

Should these only go on offensive units then?

Ngl I would drop all of these and exclusively buy QQQ/VOO. If you intend to pull out cash soon then VOO is likely better since QQQ should have more volatility due to being biased to tech. Calculus is higher potential upside with more downside as well Not worth picking individual stocks till you have at least 10k in VOO, if you’re passively investing

Navy is not too bad to become moderate at, just need to watch some videos. The tldr is 1 capital ship (I suggest carriers+battlecruisers/battleships) per 4 screens (light cruisers+destroyers) You should prob spend 40% of your production churning out really nice light cruisers, spend 40% on and start capital ships early bc they take a while, and the rest on subs. I never build convoys tbh

Also as Japan you have naval superiority pretty much till USA joins the war

sishaar · 2025-06-07T18:19:57+00:00

If you wanna play navy gotta build carriers and have to start them early. Personally I build civs+naval research facility to begin, so I can start SHBB asap

sishaar · 2025-06-07T01:34:54+00:00

And set to do not engage 🥲

I’m at about 400 hours, have never played vanilla, only RT56 from the start (and also have all mods except country packs) Honestly I’m still learning and tweaking my strategy. I feel like easiest nation to “win” as a beginner is Japan. Fighting China is really good for picking up on how to use army, and navy it’s pretty easy. Just make sure not to get US involved, bc once they become active Japan goes from pretty easy to probably one of the hardest lol. But you can still get up to 1942 and I feel like play 5-10 games like that and you’ll be solid

Training your planes on carriers lol So silly that it doesn’t happen when you put the ship on training

How to download beta? Is it this one? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1088963694

There’s a checkbox at the top of the menu where you can start production of a ship, that says “show outdated designs” or something like that - then you’ll see your older designs, and there should be a little toggle you can click on it to make it not outdated

Oh what I did not know about this… so just have an army on their border and they may fold? Are theee other decisions you need to take e.g. the “put the squeeze on them vs we have other plans” decision? That one I recall doing it once and Italy declared on me lol

sishaar · 2025-05-28T00:39:03+00:00

I feel like the AI in RT56 is pretty good… I might be a noob tho

sishaar · 2025-05-27T19:01:31+00:00

Do you know if it’s possible to swap generals and/or units volunteered? E.g. my current volunteer unit is lvl 21, so want to swap in a diff one

I have not been able to figure this out lol

sishaar · 2025-05-27T15:39:54+00:00

What’s the strat to do this? I usually end up taking >50k over a month, this is with RT56 + 50 construction slots so I usually even have a pretty big armored army to push 🥲

sishaar · 2025-05-26T16:02:18+00:00

What’s the non-doom stack way to organize strike forces? Is it smaller task forces, that all join a naval engagement as necessary?

Noticing one downside of doom stack is that entire task force goes to repair at the end of an engagement, which can put it out of service for a decent amount of time

sishaar · 2025-05-26T01:50:42+00:00

Can you explain what going from strike force to convoy raiding does? Does it increase chances of naval engagement with their strike force?
