why is it so fucking difficult to defeat Japan's navy as USA in HOI4?
I have a navy that is almost 3 times bigger, but I can't send all my ships to attack the Japanese navy at the same time because there is not a single fucking base that could house all those ships.
So I send then in separate groups and then the Japas come and attack them and destroy most of my ships, and since my naval bases are crap they have to go back all the way to Hawaii to get repaired.
Shit it looks like building naval bases in the middle of nowhere is ridiculously important if you are playing as USA. Maybe I'll have to start all over and build those bases in the early games before the war starts.
>>146817979
That's the 4x thread silly and it's quite old.
>>146817985
Because the game isn't balanced
>>146817985
>does't build naval bases
So my Marshal just died randomly, and I have 2 commanders that are capable of filling in. However, I cannot select either of them to "appoint councillor". When I mouse over it, it says "Requirements: (red X)We have any honorary titles to give to Daniel".
What the fuck does that mean? Do I need to strip the guy of his commander title before making him the marshal?
still wondering how to win the warlord era as heavenly kingdom in vickymod for 3.04

>>146818964
Nah, my marshal wasn't. I basically just started the game. I'm a count in Ireland. I had the marshal and two commanders. The marshal died, but it won't let me appoint either of the commanders. Just wondering if I need to remove their commander title first or if it's just not possible to promote one?

Holy shit sieges look good as fuck.
Only complaints is how slow body falls and how he couldn't open the door from inside, but that's easy to fix. Also hope you can hit people through the cracks in the door.
I hope walls can be completely destroyed with enough damage and that sieging affects cities, killing people and damaging buildings.
With that and a little mod support Bannerlord will be a way better medieval game than Medieval 2 or CK2.
I hope they really develop the politics part of the game more.

It's not a big deal (or wouldn't be historically), it's just a problem with the game not converting the monarch to the culture of the people they're governing. The way cultures are handled is just wrong on every level.
>>146826673
I don't mind the culture thing, I was just noting that in like every game I've played, the duke of brittany somehow manages to get a shitton of spanish land out of nowhere.

When you are no longer 15 years old you may be worth having a conversation with. You've got a lot of maturing to do yet. Your head is still filled with childishness, cognitive dissonance, and an unavoidable contrarian nature. Your arguments aren't your own, they are instead the opposite of whatever mine are. You haven't experienced enough of the world yet to have a worthwhile opinion. Go on being edgy for now. Develop emotionally so you can tame your intellect. It comes with age and education. Your frustration and inability to communicate effectively is still evident.

I tried Polan but it's bugged, you can convert infinite factories in Warsaw

Should I try Germany next?

As Germany you'll get raped by Britains limitless bombers, unless you're gamey and invade the Dutch in 1936 for that sweet rubber so you can expand Luftwaffe.
And Hungary is nice and comfy. Destroy Romania and then backstab Germany once they start losing.

Any tips for Finland in HoI4? It starts completely fucked, without even great war tanks and no factories to trade. Should I join Axis or is it better to remain neutral?

going with the axis will at least give you a chance, but may also fuck germany since they will go to war with the soviets for you

>>146837184
but theyre cheaper
>>146835485
build up war factories, build civ as you need to trade for resources.
1936 start focus on INF > ART > AT support. Even if the AI is shit and only use light tank here, it's still has enough armor to break you without AT.
1939 start focus on AT immediately as the soviet starts with Med/Heavy tank + templates
get fascist in power as soon as possible for that manpower political focus tree.
Build your forts between those lakes to keep the frontage fewer than 2 provinces and in
when war starts, rush for Leningrad for those delicious factories and a great defensive position

Wow trash game
>>146841738
It's because of the retarded states. Can't even take "realistic" land in peace deals.
In other words, I like to play with plausibilty in mind so, for example, if I'm playing Yugoland I'd nab bordering provinces like Carinthia from Austria but now I can either take half of Austria or none.
Not to mention the designers themsleves probably realised they fucked up so now you've got random one province states like Zara.
In hearts of iron 4 is there like a mod or something that basically makes every country a blank slate or something like that?
so basically no alliances at the start or anything like that and possibly all as non aligned as well?

>>146835485
I had no trouble as Finland but I did not aim for a world conquest, was one of my first games.
Only build Military Factories, Sweden+Norway should give you enough factories to build a decent Army.
Join the Axis but only in their war against the Soviets. Ignore their calls against the Allies for until the Soviets are beat.
Go for Superior Firepower Doctrine and integrated Support.
Focus on Infantry + AT Artillery and Air superiority. Main army is Infantry+Mountaineers only and you simply avoid fighting their tanks and surround them before attacking. Or assist the german panzers when they attack. Build some division with 4 AT Brigades and use them as reinforcements if the soviets Armored Divisions attack.
By the end of 41 the soviets capitulated and the game became boring. I still invaded the UK and took northern France because for some reason Germany did not mange to do beat France on her own.
>>146837462
your hardattack will be higher if you spam normal arti and infantry
since its 1 thing to research and you dont have military factories for various productions
>>146842794
Some said that the Axis/Allies/Comintern factions are hardcoded into of a lot of stuff and removing them would be very difficult. No idea if it's the truth but it sounds plausible.
>>146843859
But that obliterates the principle behind the open faction system. Why would they let major states create their own faction instead of the 3 generic ones and hardcode them at the same time?
>>146843665
>hard attack
if your piercing is below enemy armor, you suffer something like -66% combat effectiveness

Its sad that all the nations that dont have national focuses will probably get them in paid DLC.
They gave Poland one, and they didnt even play a major part in the war after they got invaded. I dont understand why Spain never got a focus tree, and I certainly dont understand why the commonwealth nations and both China's didnt get one either.
>>146844682
Wait for more DLC. Pirate them later.
>>146844425
I guess if you don't want to bother with it yourself, you can merge it with some other modder. ALPHA dropped yes, but this place has lots of autists, someone is bound to want to fix Hoy4 and make mod for it

If I remember correctly, ALPHA said anyone can step up and take over working on the /gsg/ mod, so there's already a solid foundation.

>but this place has lots of autists, someone is bound to want to fix Hoy4 and make mod for it
I'm actually currently working on one such mod lad. Since I was like 8, I've always had the autistic urge to do alternative and "fun" shit in the games I'm playing, autistic stuff like designing my own RP story in GTA 3 and pretending I'm executing some huge bank heist, which would usually consist of a solid 4-5 hours of full-blown autism like pointless running from the cops
Problem is, it's not a general fix mod but rather my autism represented in yet another game - it's a mod aboutan alt-history democratic Balkan Federation with unified Yugoslavia, Bulgaria and Wallachia, supposedly an invention of the UK and France as a tool against totalitarianism on the peninsula. You start as the democratic BF (Western Bulgaria, Thrace, Macedonia and Eastern Serbia), and to your east, there is an ongoing Communist civil war directly supported (in a faction) by Communist Romania, to your west, another part of your country is divided into a second civil war, the one of the Fascists and supported by (again in a faction) Hungary. Both communist and fascist factions are also in a war against each other.Your goal is to play as the democratic BF in the middle of all of that and overcome both civil wars, and then Romania and Hungary. You get a long enough idea tree with two initial choices (only one can be chosen) - Military focus or Political focus. The military tree provides you with a huge boost to your army and production so you overcome them manually, while the political tree provides you with attracting the neutral neighbors to your Democratic Union faction - Greece and Turkey, and a couple of beneficial trade events.The OOBs of all the participants in that war are balanced in such a way that you BARELY manage to survive, and you must do so using manual control over your army, and long-term planning

>there are "people" who are seriously invested in thread drama
Decided to attack an imperial city, Hamburg and Bremen, Austria is protecting them as the empire, (also allied to Riga), but as the war starts, England and The Palatinate join for no reason. Wtf? In imperial city wars can Austria call its allies or what is going on?

Too bad that allies are raping nazi asses and even though I'm not at war with them, no way I'm defeating gommies on my own.

>>146847962
Ottomans - To learn to play a large country with low literacy
Japan - To learn to westernize
USA or BrazilOr maybe Australia- To learn about immigration
Then start playing with mods, most likely HPM
>>146848081
Nah, it'll be far browner

The madmen actually took back berlin and Italy and are reclaiming Reich. I'm impressed. Not sure what the fuck happened here, Italy was almost all lost to US.

>>146848167
Isn't immigration basically out of your hands as the player though? I know reforms kind of decide where people want to go, but the new world has a huge bonus to immigration hard coded in, doesn't it?
>>146847881
>tfw you realize history is actually the greatest lie ever told
>>146849272
Yeah, that's why I recommended all New World countries. Also, because of special modifiers, by events and decisions, these countries are the only ones that get immigration anyway. Other small ones won't even get half of the immigrants compared to these
But still, it's pretty important part of the game, you have to pay attention to it while playing a nation in new world. You probably never even noticed if your people immigrated as Serbia
>you are now aware that the only reason so many people circlejerk over V2 is because this website is full of edgy contrarian kids who HAVE to be different from the rest
>you are now also aware that if CK2 wasn't played by the mainstream, like V2 isn't, there would be a massive circlejerk ITT about how the character gameplay adds more layers of depth than any other Paradox game and how CK2 is literal perfection
When will you manchildren grow up? It's literally the same with /pol/ and their edgy racism and irrational hate of the LGBT community. Old /pol/ was liberal as fuck, but I guess since the mainstream caught up and is now liberal too, the instinct to be an edgy contrarian triggered and they reverted to the opposite

The only nice thing about it is role-playing escapism, and based eugenics.

I decided to go for the Ottoman Empire instead. Perhaps I can make sure the sick man of Europe stays relevant.
I understand why they called him that though. I have really low literacy, my administration is shit. I have so low tax efficiency I have to have tariffs at 100% just to turn a profit.
My goals are to (hopefully) stay relevant, industrialize, and expand in northern Africa, and the arab peninsula, while keeping the Balkans under my rule.

Fuck's Jake's problem? Deleted my comment on his Panzer John campaign about Swedes being cucks and giving money to Muslims over Whites.
Guess he's really serious about that 'PG-13' rating or is just a standard pussy.

Should I enact reforms even if my population doesn't want to? Will I get reactionary rebels? Of all the reforms I could take, this one had the largest support.

>>146851119
Liberals- socialists are much more militant than reactionaries in my case and your militancy is just too high, I'd say pass reforms.
Though, how much of your people support a social reform now? If it's nearly enough to pass a reform and if a chance of rebellion is low, try to raise it a bit more and pass health reforms
>>146851312
Holy FUCK fuck those massive icons, what the fuck is wrong with these guys?
>>146851307
Is there any way to gain accepted cultures in Victoria 2? Because right now we only accept Turkish, and there's not that many Turks living in the Ottoman Empire.
And on a related note, how should I expand? Should I just try to puppet things that aren't of my culture? I have a lot of primitive and uncivs around me, and they're really cheap to just conquer outright. Do I still just want to puppet them? If not, how do I deal with all these nationalist sympathies?

Arguing whether one is more fun than the other is like two kids with cancer arguing who has better tumor.

Sure. You need the latest patch but you can get it off the forum without an account.

Isn't the latest patch 1.04? I downloaded DH from archive and I have that

More like who has less tumour.
