I love how you back up your videos with hard numbers and show exactly what the stats are, instead of talking out of your rear end like some other gamers I've seen

[@hyggegaming]

Thanks for the comment :)
Yeah there is a lot of different styles out there. We mostly do our guides in the same way me and Badger talk to eachother when finding new and interesting stuff. But i agree, its more fun to actually understand what is happening.

Initiative also increases how fast divisions get planning bonus.

And damned right you are, i had it in my script, went through the video now and i realised i missed saying it. The drawback to making your videos around midnight!
I hope you still enjoyed the other parts!

Only a couple guys explain mechanics well. You and counterfactual gaming. The so called “big and popular” HOI4 CZcamsrs really don’t know a lot. Can wipe them out in MP with there so called Meta bs. Don’t think they know Meta if it hit them over the head. 2000 hrs + in game, know much of this but glad to see you touching base on these subjects.

[@hyggegaming]

Thanks for the positive feedback, we always research the subjects beforehand and it happens from time to time that we realise we actually have misunderstood things. But we really want to make high quality content, and not just bro-science :)

Welcome to the community!

[@greenicegaming5008]

Can you please chapter your videos because though I find them very useful I already new some of the stuff in this.

[@hyggegaming]

Thanks for the feedback, it was supposed to have chapters but YT must have misread the table somehow. It should be fixed now!

[@samt6885]

Your break down of game mechanics is very helpful. Thank you for your videos!!
I wish I could have subscribed sooner!

[@hyggegaming]

Thanks again, and happy to have you here now. The best thing is you now have a whole catalogue to browse through ;)

Reinforce is quite interesting when using Modern Tank division in late game, it kill troop so quick they didn't have a chance to reinforce (even in red number), give them air overrun everything

[@hyggegaming]

If you get attack stats through the roof and speed on top of that, HOI4 is a really nice game to play :)

Initiative also influences what tactics your general will pick, doesn't it?

[@hyggegaming]

Its a common misconception, tactics is determined by general skill-level and recon. But in the mechanics they talk about which side gets Initiative, but thats initiative in that particular mechanic and has nothing to do with Initiavite in the templates.
Paradox sure makes things easy :)
There will be a tactics-video on the channel so stat tuned for that
