We don't have an official steam or discord group. If anyone posts in the thread about any "official" or not steam or discord groups, promising MP or not, be sure it's a shitposter group known for organizing raids and shitposting in the thread. They are known for false-flagging.
Report and ignore it.

How fares your empire, /gsg/?

This day in history, June 13th:
1373 – Anglo-Portuguese Alliance between England (succeeded by the United Kingdom) and Portugal is the oldest alliance in the world which is still in force.
1805 – Lewis and Clark Expedition: scouting ahead of the expedition, Meriwether Lewis and four companions sight the Great Falls of the Missouri River.
1886 – King Ludwig II of Bavaria is found dead in Lake Starnberg south of Munich at 11:30 PM.
1917 – World War I: The deadliest German air raid on London during World War I is carried out by Gotha G bombers and results in 162 deaths, including 46 children, and 432 injuries.

God that was annoying. First I had to fight the Axis for Czechoslovakia, then a year later the Comintern for Romania. Manage to beat them both, but because you apparently get more war score for bombing then you do for actually doing shit, Britain got first peace and made a German Republic. So then I had to fight all the Allies as well. Thank god China joined the Allies just before the Democratic Japan declared war on them and I was able to get in with them.

But these borders a fucking disgusting. Guess the only way to have nice ones is to war alone, otherwise everyone else will just grabs bits all over.

If I understand >>145404861 right, they built an AI that decides how to modify their divisions based on a set of weights (so, e.g., if adding X to the division adds 5 soft attack and 10 build_cost_ic, it has a net value of +2, and if Y adds 5 soft attack, 5 hard attack, and 12 build_cost_ic, it has a net value of +1, so the AI will choose X more often than Y, even though Y is probably better.)

If >>145405163 is what it looks like, the AI isn't allowed to add Artillery brigades or tanks to their infantry divisions, or infantry/mot/mech brigades to their tank divisions; this might just be an optimization to prevent the AI from ending up with 2 infantry brigades and 10 artillery brigades in their divisions, not sure. This is the problem with linear weights; they don't take into account the need for balance between statistics.

>>
>>145405256
you want combat width 20 or 10 or below so you can fit more divisions into a battle from 1 direction.
Higher the hardness the better.
Artillery, tanks, and support battalions have low organization so you need some type of infantry with them.
AA is useless
Recon and Engineer supports are worth it for every division
Speed is better than firepower itself, hence why that autist who posted here showing us his super heavy tank only divisions lost WW2.

Everything at 0.0 is base. Above that means it matters more, below matters less.

So AI cares more about soft attack then it does hardness, but cares less about IC cost and supply consumption then it does recon or reliability.

To add:
Motorized rek fucking everything, you can add light armour for more punch and just add recon + support art + whatever and you win.

Also, don't be surprised if you end up with 100k+ infantry equipment in storage, just lend lease it to allies when you move to the next inf eq tech.

Which means Mechanised Infantry with attached Support Artillery is the best composition and once you get a bunch of that there's no reason to make anything else.

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1LWNyuzMKhRjeCoIYZaawVLcGb0C_oOoLVeOvZRG2ghM/viewform

pls respond

I honestly wouldn't be opposed to passing that around to people outside gsg or even on Reddit or whatever, if it gets us more responses; crowds are usually pretty good at assessing weights for things like this, as large numbers of responses can smooth out pet stats.

also, does anyone know what "default_morale" is? is that a hidden stat?

also, how fucking ridiculous is it that it doesn't even have a weight for combat width.

Destroying 60% of the British navy in a handful of months is probably one of most satisfying things I've done in a grand strategy game. I almost don't want to declare war on the USA until it is entirely destroyed.

You think that's an exaggeration. That can't be true, right? It is true. That's what the French are doing. If you don't like facts then that's your problem, and you're next.

GODDAMN FUCKING FRENCH TERRORISTS! THE FRENCH ARE THE TERRORISTS! THEY'RE TERRORIZING EVERYONE EVERYWHERE! PEOPLE ARE GETTING BUTCHERED, MASSACRED! Goddammit. I'm sorry, guys. I'm so fucking mad.

LET'S GO INVADE COUNTRIES BASED ON THE FRENCH PERCENTAGE OF THE COUNTRY! WE'RE GOING TO RIP THEIR FUCKING HOUSES DOWN! FUCK THE FRENCH! FUCK THEIR CHILDREN! FUCK DEMOCRACY! FUCK REASON AND DECENCY!

I'm sorry. I'm just so fucking mad. The French are just systematically corrupt. They're all terrorists. Every single one of them.

IT'S NOT THE BRITISH! IT'S NOT THE RUSSIANS! IT'S THE FUCKING FRENCH! I DON'T CARE HOW MANY FRENCH CHILDREN DIE! THESE CORRUPT ASSHOLES ARE MURDERING US!

WOLF PACK, GO GET EM! LET'S GO!

Nice doom stacking

well shit it's the only thing that works. I just prefer to use multiple mini doomstacks depending on the size of my navy. It's the only thing that works until command limits with severe penalties are introduced
>>
>>145410139
So how do you beat a larger navy with a smaller one, then, if doomstacks are the only thing that works? Subs? Concentrating all your ships on a single zone and hoping they spread theirs out much further?

I got my navy crushed by USA and British joint fleet. Had 2 carriers left after the end of it. There was storm in both major engagements and my carriers were unable to launch fighters. It was a sad day. Not that it didn't come at a brutal cost to the Brits and Americans. Pretty much all 3 fleets were vaporized with only stragglers left on each side by the end of it. What followed was a year of them raiding my convoys and killing entire divisions in transit. Nothing major, just garrison divisions, but it was a horrible loss of material and supplies. AND convoys. Ever seen the convoy number tick to 0? I have.
>>
>>145410084
Their starting fleet is practically unmatched by what the AI does with the UK fleet.

The Netherlands and France offer next to no resistance in the area.

Siam is a cakewalk, British Raj is as well.

Sail up and take the Suez canal, land troops in GB easily.

I don't like doing it EU4 style where you can't enter them. They should just have really really really low supply and give 0 supply to all surrounding areas they border so that, while you can fight in there and you can have an odd battle in Sahara you don't have a fucking frontline stretching through it.

You must have only played that one version that was out for a few weeks which gave the Soviets hundreds of free divisions every couple months. Most versions including the newest have Germany winning 99% of the time. I've probably played close to 100 games with different versions of the mod. It's always the case.

Like I said, you must be using some old version. Germany always wins in the newer releases. Either that or I've had some bad luck.
