When Germany Has No Airforce You Know It's Going To Be A Disaster (No Step Back HOI4 Disaster Save)
Рет қаралды 177,613
2 жыл бұрынToday on Hearts of Iron 4 we return to the No Step Back DLC I try and save a disaster game in which Germany has no air force and can't push into France. It's all a rather big mess.

@@ArturHedlund Meyer is just a German last name. Meyer and its many versions is one of the most common Family last names in Germany. Also Funfact: the original quote doesnt use 'Meyer', it uses 'Meier' instead (still the same name, just a local difference) 2nd Funfact: there is no actual proof of Göring ever using the original quote. But that didnt stop people in Germany during the war making jokes about him using it.

Ngl ai has gotten 200% better.

Ugh. I just wanna wend alex a juicy disaster game which hasn't happened yet.

@@nikolatanev1140 I definitely do agree on that. However looking towards the Asian continent, the war has gotten definitely harder for Japan. I don’t see them steamrolling China like they use to and they rarely are able to gain control even over British Malaysia. Of course that has to do more with the AI not yet ready for the new supply system rather than combat decisions but still.

They need to add something to encourage nations to defend their core lands, and something that makes nations pull back troops to defend the mainland if naval invasions succeed. Mostly because no nation is going to give up all its troops to protect an ally when the enemy is walking into your capital.

Using "mister generic" is actually often a good idea since the Austrians usually promote hin to fiele marshal and give him the adaptive trait, thereby making him a very good marshal for mountainous and diverse terrain. You though gave a field marshal a general traut, what was a bit of a waste.

one big thing that can make a difference when lacking air is to pull some planes out of the sky and train them. The bonus from being regular itself may not do much, but its so much worse when they're stuck in an infinite loop of being green

Tip: don't attack just a single tile. While you were attacking Amsterdam and pushing them off, fresh troops were moving in from tiles right beside it. If you attacked the entire front you can stop them from being able to move in to Amsterdam. You were essentially letting them rotate in as many troops as they wanted from anywhere on the line while your troops slowly bleed organization and faulter in a single mass charge from one direction without air support.
