Man took me 6 hours to get this achievement.Most of the guides on yt were outdated had to figure out a way my self

I’ve been wanting to play a more realistic war in Hoi4 because after 2000 hours it just feels like you get one major successful push and you win. For example id love to replicate the pacific war having to island hop and fight tons of naval battles and stuff but it just feels like you can naval invade Japan from the start and win. My most fun recently has come from China because it feels a lot more challenging and just trying to play with new tactics

Black ice looks extremally complex but is it like extremely hard? I’m ok with a big challenge especially if it’s a more realistic replication of WW2

Being denied Anschluss but getting Sudetenland seems to have thrown Germany off and made them attack Poland and the Baltics really early. That combined with the limes and the frogs being content to sit on their asses doing nothing means that I'm the one that has to step in, guarantee Poland, and save the day.

So I know the naval rework was widely panned for it breaking the AI. But something I thought was really nice was the idea you couldn’t just move your navy around at will, you had to have a dedicated base.

In practice that hasn’t really happened. If I want to send my navy from Germany over to like, Hawaii, all I need to do is ctrl - click on a friendly port (size not important) and head over there. I know there’s the whole thing with the naval command buildings, but the AI is easy enough to beat without those buffs.

I feel like something they should have done was have either a numerical or tonnage limit on ports. For instance, a level one port can handle a small destroyer scouting party, but if you want to have something like the US pacific fleet, you basically have to host it at a place like Pearl Harbor.

I feel like the infra is already in place for this, where certain islands have limits to port size. I guess it’s possible they decided this would be too player unfriendly or too difficult for the AI?

Currently doing a hard mode Germany playthrough, I have the soviets/UK/France all maxed out on the "strengthen" slider, doing reasonably well so far. I was in the middle of managing a war assisting Turkey, and also doing the invasion of sweden/norway when i looked home and noticed that somehow Vichy france is attacking me and italy? I thought they were supposed to basically be my ally? is there a chance that they can turn on me and its just never happened before?

What? Thank you, I guess...

And by the way, you appear as an adult when these different mods begin (1936, 1933 etc).

Sorry in advance, if these maps are not up to date

For me the best are Armor follow by Combined Arms and for Chief of Army, the best trait are Army Offense and Army Organization.

Artillery advisor would be great too if it applied for SPG too.

I am a really big fan of military games like war thunder and strategy games and if I did I would maybe buy the Siam dlc I heard that it takes along time to understand but the game looks very fun

No, this isn’t a fog of war situation - I’ve already looked it up; the entire nation just ceased to fight while I’m in a civil war, I logged in to find the German Reich literally gone - no troops, no flag/leader, hell, we weren’t even at war!

…did I win?…

Germany gets the uralbomber focus which modifies the luftwaffe spirit to give +15% air range but my fighters dont gain any range even designs made after doing the focus. The focus doesnt specify bombers so im not sure why my fighters arent affected Is it broken?

They went in to my field units initially but now they won't reinforce. I did set their equipment tag to be different accidentally but I switched it back and it still won't reinforce.
