-----------------------😁About Me😁-----------------------
My name is Hammo and I stream on Twitch! I play a variety of "map games" and strategy games, but my favourite game by far is Hearts of Iron IV.
I love this game and it's complexity, strategy and historical focus, but these are also reasons people can find it hard to get into Hoi4. The endless spreadsheets, statistics, buffs and debuffs can be overwhelming without someone to show you the ropes, which is where this channel comes in!
I will be creating and posting beginners guides, tutorials, walkthroughs, tips and tricks videos, just about everything I can to get you playing and enjoying Hearts of Iron IV as much as I do!

Cringe? Historically accurate doesn't mean you support it. Grow a spine.
If you don't support it then there's no need to use it 😁
@@hammotimee What a retarded way to think, you could say there’s no need to even play Germany unless you support it too then
@@hammotimee So, in order to accurately portray flags in history, you have to support Nazism? Did your parents have any children that weren't braindead?
@@hammotimee No, he's right. Also you use quotes when you say "historic flag" like it was? It was the official flag of Germany in 1936
@@hammotimeeare you actually a clown?
it's so weird that we're still hiding from a flag, from the 1930's.. otherwise and regardless, good video, ty!
Hardly hiding, more trying to not encourage people to get around that kind of nonsense again! But thank you :)
@jmedlin81 is right. In the top-right of your game console, it says the date... then, on the top-left, it shows the wrong flag. It is childish to pretend that people don't notice the incongruity.
@@waynevan5069 you're missing the point so badly here bro
As a person that graduated from a top 20 university with a triple major in Military History, Political Science and Criminology , I believe I am far from missing the point. It was, after all, the regime that you are attempting to erase from history, who chose to use that same tactic to silence their opponents and justify their twisted views.@@hammotimee
@@hammotimee I'm down as long as we censor the soviet flag as well
1 minute in and we got this dude who’s supposed to be doing a guide, not a personal commentary, telling us what mods to sub to and what ones not to. Bro it’s a ww2 game man calm down. Ludi made a much better guide
You must be new here 😅
Great guide but I would recommend starting a war goal on the Dutch East Indies right at the start of the game. The Netherlands will defend them which allows you to capitulate the Netherlands lightning fast and end war. You'll get to annex the East Indies and get a ton of rubber all game. This will allow you to rush airplanes quickly along with techs like self-sealing fuel tanks without worry.
Very true! But this was more of a historical type guide
And also at the same time with Belgium so after winning you have a nice flat border with France
do you annex or puppet them?
@@M4Edits6 anex
Won’t the UK declare war on you?
I heard somewhere that the division attrition military high command guy is nearly worthless because it only removes 8% of your attrition percentage rather than 8% flat. For example if they’re taking 10% attrition, the guy will lower it to 9.2%. Most people have the idea that it’d go from 10% to 2%, but apparently it does not.
Ahhh interesting! In that case probably not worth it, better off getting the infantry officer or logistics guy!
Thanks for that , I'll call this my 800hr discovery, every 50hrs or so I learn something new thats pretty huge to the game 😅
Great Video! Usually waiting to do 4 year plan is sub optimal for a good Germany run. I usually rush those free civies and by doing this in Early 38 I have 100 Civs.
Thanks for the tip! I'd be interested for someone to do the math on whether the bonus from having higher industrial output or the more civs is better. I mean I won't do it, but it's fun to think about 😂
@@hammotimee From my expirience it is better to get the bonuses on later tech (tools 3 dispersed 3) its a very minor difference in the end since civ builds arent the way with germanies mill construction speed anyway.
Usually i do that since it takes a huge chunk of my research which is very helpful alot of times
Taking free trade as first pp pick would be more beneficial to research beginning industry quickly and take 4 year plan as 3rd focus. You could also take motorisation dive early, design division and switch to state serves military. Also improved worker conditions wouldn't be necessary if you had political loyalty
The great thing about this game is there's more than one way to do things 😉
This and the UK video have both helped me immensely, thank you
No thank YOU! I've got a Soviet video coming next 😄
OOoh looking forward to it! Do you have plans for an Italian one after?
Thank you so much sir, it really helps a lot
You're so welcome!
Interesting choice for early game advisors, i usually pick Goebels ( 10% war support ) and go straight to war economy.
EDIT: Another interesting thing you can do as Germany is stack as much speed for your divisions as you can. Heinz Guderian (advisor) gives armor speed +10% + another 10% ( i think its 10% ) from the spirit of division and another 10% if you get an Army Maneuver army advisor.
Also for the plane wouldn't it be better to use armor plates, self sealing fuel tank ( i know it costs more rubber ) and a drop tank ?
Yeah that's also a good approach! More than one way to do it hey 😀
RE: the planes, I would usually do exactly what you say, however Germany needs to produce a lot more refineries to cover the rubber cost if you use SSFT, whereas two armour plates doesn't cost an extra resource and gives almost as good protection
Goebbels isn't worth it, you can just attaché to Spain and get the 10% ws to go war eco
You get completely get cut off from importing rubber. Self-sealing tanks are too expensive for Germany.
@@sld1776 👏👏👏
@@sld1776 Right at start of the game, start a war goal on dutch east indies. You can steamroll the Netherlands which will capitulate both nations and get you easy rubber for a long time.
Hi, just wondering if I could join your multiplayer games as you mentioned you organise them, btw nice video would love to see more :)
Thanks so much! Best bet is to join the discord and I'll announce if we have open games there!
Thanks!

Would love a guide like this for Italy MP Vainilla historical rules. Keep up the good work!
Thank you! I used to have Italy down to a T, need to get into more multiplayer with my friends to try it out again with the new tree 😂
Mass mob and 10w gg
@@Wow_btw for Italy? Bold move cotton, let's see if it pays off
@@hammotimee you have to use guerrilla tactics for it to work so make it your preferred tactic the whole idea of it is to never lose Africa or Italy to the allies with guerrilla tactics so German tanks can easily push out Africa another thing it works well for is an unbreakable dday wall lategame (guerrilla tactics reduce attacker damage by 80% so you just stack 9 10w per tile to fill the combat width and have the most defence possible and you can basically never break )
Hi i was wondering if you used the same infrantry templete for the war with ussr and if it is suitable for whole game and if not what to add thanks
Sure thing! Against the USSR just something simple like 20w with support arty or aa is absolutely fine! Since you'll be using your tanks to push mostly anyway
@@hammotimee thanks for that, great vid btw
It seems to me, given the bonuses that Germany receives for the construction of mills, it is most profitable to either not build factories at all, or only a small number. Has anyone tested this strategy before?
I know people have tested it for sure and I'm not 100% on the most optimal way to go about it. But I do like to have a larger civiilian industry earlier on especially for an MP game because the combined industry of the UK, US and Soviets is always gonna outproduce you, so I like to try and close the gap as much as I can
The best way is to cut civs in april 37
That usually works with the timing fi the mill guy. Most meta builds focus on getting refs the most efficient way so you usually cut mills at 120-125, 100 if you are extra greedy.
For some reason, I don’t have the medium 1938, what do I do?
Oh nvm lol
Haha all good!
Has there been an update with special forces? I couldn't get as many paratroop divisions. I could only have 6
Not as of yet? How big were your divisions?
@@hammotimee 16 width. I played on regular difficulty
How do you keep your fuel reserves? Mine are empty by mid June 1936 due to the navy and air force training
It doesn't matter if they're empty that early tbh, you would just trade oil, but to get XP all you need to do is trade 1 unit of oil from someone and leave your navy on training. A slow trickle will come in and then before you go to war you can stop training and then trade for a bunch of oil to quickly fill your reserves 😊
Wha-? I'm more of a Poland and France player but cmon, if a wehraboo wants to play historical germany they totally should.
As a France and Poland player, wehraboos are the last people you'd want to be playing against surely 😅
@@hammotimeeI would think that beating a wehraboo as Poland would be extremely satisfying.
@@michaelkaminski1166 console commands: ic > level 10 forts everywhere
Very good guide. Very well explained. Please use „Halmar Schacht“ in early game. Especially when you pick „Sudetenland“ late in the build-up. 75 xp are absolutely worth it😉😉
Question: Why do you use the focus „Molotov-Ribbentrop-pact“. In my playthroughs in almost every patch, the Russian ai never attack on „historical ai on“❓❓❓
Because you delay the four year plan, you don't get the return for the captain of industry!
And Molotov Ribbentrop is historical because of most mp game rules :)
@@hammotimee I see, you are right. You delayed four year plan very much😉😉😉
@@bernaldo6051 gotta get that bonus on the contruction/industry level 3!
@@hammotimee normally I use the 100% for construction 3 an disp. ind 2 and Hamjar earlier. Both strats have their advantages😉😉😉
@@bernaldo6051 Hey very true! The great thing about this game is there's more than one way to play
What did you do with the divisions you got from Austria? Looking at your armies pre- and post-Anschluss I did not see any change.
Just converted them bad boys all to my standard infantry!
@@hammotimee I guessed right! I figured that was the only thing that made sense and did the same thing. 🙂
I am on one of my first play throughs right now and this is helping me immensely! My issue right now is when I try to attack Belgium, French and British reinforcements come and slow me down to the point of me not breaking through. Any tips would help me greatly!
Glad to help! Best advice is to make sure you only declare on belguim once poland and then the netherlands have capped, make sure your whole airforce is active and use all 4-5 armies with your tanks to push :)
@@hammotimeeBut how you cap Poland easy? I always negotiate Danzig for Slovakia
@@nicolasrodriguez3552 just as in the video, you use your whole army there to attack, you only need one other army on the French border to defend that
@@hammotimee I’ll try, thanks btw :D
@@hammotimeeBtw, won’t the UK declare war on you?
well played! i’ll defo try it. Is it still viable in June 23? 😊
Yeah for sure! Don't see why not 😁
Hey can you tell me which country should i annex in hoi4 to get sufficient tungsten supply? I know i can just get them by annexing Malaysia and Indonesia but i don't want to go war with Japanese as the later declare war on em..
Portugal has a lot of the supply you need, you can either just trade with them or invade them through spain!
@@hammotimee thanks for the tip man
@@master26449 got u
My two tank divisions in early '39 still do not have any tanks. I'm following your production strategy, and there still aren't any factories building tanks, as the tank line is still waiting for factories to be built. Did you change something in the production queue before the Poland war? Or did you go with them with only a few tanks in the divisions? Also, you showed the training panzer division and queued up some to train, but when did you convert them, and how did you organize them into your army?
Hmm, generally for me the factories gained from all the annexations fill out the panzers, but tbh if you have to build 5 mils earlier to get that production or take some off guns it's fine!
I don't use the training division myself, but you'd deploy them, train them to level 3, then convert them! Hope this helps!
@@hammotimee I found that out after I got the UK to cap. What happened is I did the full 100% collab on France, so there were fewer factories to produce mils earlier than in your run-through. I did what you said and moved some mils around to get tanks producing, and it was fine. Thanks!
Question on the training Panzer division, I duplicate the design and then go to change the tanks to motorized and it says I need 20 experience to change the tank battalions to motorized, however in your video it says there is no cost. Am I doing something wrong of have they made an update that changed this since you made the video?
Ahhh yes, if you have No Step Back, in the officer corps there's a spirit of the army which allows you to change your motorised templates if you've gone down the mobile warfare doctrine! I'm planning to make a video on this 😁
@@hammotimee There was one other thing I have run into... the recruit local agent decision has disappeared meaning when I get to having my 3rd agent i can't recruit a soviet one. Its strange as the second agent I recruited was from the soviet union but now the decision is gone and there is no button to recruit a new agent in the USSR.
@@hammotimee Also want to say this video is awesome bro, really helpful in getting my head around the nuances of tech timing and such.
@@lukebrigginshaw5948 Sometimes you might have to wait a bit longer for the nations spies to become available again!
And thanks so much dude! I'm glad I am able to help 😁
@@hammotimee Alright, the next oddity I am getting is I have capitulated Poland however I am not getting the Partitioning of Poland event pop up, the game runs for a few days and Poland turns into German Poland and and the USSR starts to justify against it.

Glad to help!
Another great video! Thanks for showing me a LOT of things I need to work on. I swear...This game isn't the learning curve of Eve Online, but it's pretty darn close.
Earned a subscription as well.
Glad to help! It's pretty full on, I'm happy that I can make it a bit easier 😀
Just an opinion:
For me this build seems really weak when it comes to early game industry buildup. After Rheinland i always want to rush down from 4 year plan to the additional research slot. On the way you pick up really good bonuses for industry research, construction speed and Hjalmar Schacht who is very cheap and boosts your civ boom even more. But most importantly you get 12 civs for free from two of those focuses, further speeding up your civ snowballing.
And if you get army innovations and treaty with USSR after the additional research slot its still plenty of time to get the tanks you want. Rush 38 medium early without bonus so you get the -2 years bonus on the 40 medium. Btw, i dont get it at all why you go army innovations II long before you re able to get any value from it.
I also highly recommend that the first PP pick should always be free trade for even more construction and research speed. The latter is huge for tank and plane tech rushing.
It's a bit dated now yeah, but still a good starting point for new players :)
Been a while but guide is still pretty solid, did well as Germany and even pushed the Soviets beyond Moscow but those damn brits just didnt back down 😭
Thank you! I'll do an updated one once I've done guides on all the other majors 😅
Sometimes, when I invade France, I lose because of mass attrition or it takes like 2 months to capitulate them, and that's with only using 1 full army of 21 widths and some tanks mostly 11-13 tanks that I make 26 width. But I see you used 5 full armies and 13 tank divisions, I wonder how is that possible.
there shouldnt be mass attrition if you put supply on motorized. It could be that you are indeed too fast so that conquered supply are still disabled. I usually have may armies on Benelux and Lothringia front while i breakthrough with my tanks at Dunkirk and Calais and then rush down to Paris. Those might take a bit attrition but remember with collabs you only need to take Paris with a single unit. Sometimes I make it even before Belgium falls
Make sure you're using your airforce over the regions you're fighting in! Don't push through the maghinot line, only push through the Netherlands and Belgium, just do them one at a time too
@@hammotimee yup I do all of this!!
@@t3ss33 well I do that, and sometimes I even make more railroad connections.
Pls do a video with every nation with Focus tree. Pls pls pls you are awesome

What's wrong with the immersive flag mods? Can't handle a swastika in a WW2 game where you can play as Nazi Germany?
🤦🤦♀️🤦♂️
@@hammotimee goofy using non-binary facepalm get out of here bruhhhh lmfao
What if I don’t have the dlcs? Are there any mods that can replace them?
There aren't any mods that replace the DLCs, but the subscription is pretty affordable and gives you access to all of them!
Tanks with 40 combat width?
I tried keeping mine under 24...Thats what i heard its best...
Or is it only for inf?
Generally you'd have your infantry between 15-20, and for tanks you'd want them bigger to fit more stats into the divisions, but they've changed the combat widths a bit so you're going to want something between 30-40 now
Eh, honestly I would just go and get naval supremacy to defeat Britain.
Just exercise your fleet until you have 14 naval xp, then get a Battleship 2 with one T1 gun, one T1 engine and the battlecruiser armor.
Put your 10 dockyards to build those, and you should have around 6 of them when WW2 brakes out.
Once you have defeated France put your whole navy into a french port, give them the attack order for the English channel.
Thanks to the large amount of manpower those BC's gives you (over 5k man per ship) you can easily get enough supremacy to launch a naval invasion.
Works sometimes for singleplayer, but for a multiplayer game you'd struggle to get the navy big enough imo! I find winning the air war to be way more reliable 😁
@@hammotimee Of course this is only viable in SP, such a tactic in MP can only prevent enemy naval invasions.
But to be fair the video is more of a SP-guide than an MP one (mostly because in a decent MP game you would not bother with air as Germany since Hungary covers this with their bonuses to fighters, while Germany would focus heavily on tanks, Romania on oil and rubber while Italy and Japan do the navy).
@@TMG-Germany Yeah for sure! I generally have a more SP focus but I wanted this to be also a rough starting point for people that are new to getting into MP to be able to follow along in terms of focuses etc 😄
Why cant i design planes? i also dont have the weapon and the engine research tree. am i missing a dlc?
Yep! By Blood Alone! It should be on sale right now actually!
@@hammotimee Yeah i see, my steam online fix was outdated and was limiting my game to the barbarossa v1.11.3 update. I worked it out.
I badly messed up and ended losing to the allies lol
Don't feel bad, we all do it hahaha
@@hammotimeety!
I messed up again 😡
How do you build that tank division at 17:04 for only 20 Army XP?!?
If you have No Step Back you can assign "spirit of the army" things, one of which is "motorisation drive" which costs 35xp, but makes the design of armoured, mech and motorised divisions free! Only the support companies and AA would cost XP
@@hammotimee Got it. Thanks!
wouldnt it be easier if you just naval invade and go around the english channel? it is 2 seas but still not hard to take really, you can land in hull or Newcastle.
I've found paratroopers more reliable than trying out outdo the British Navy
@@hammotimee yeah i wish I could drop paratroopers but it's impossible for me to get air superiority over UK
I haven’t played for a couple years and just got back into it. I didn’t even realize the swastika wasn’t part of the base game or that I had a mod installed. That’s how much power it doesn’t have over me. While I get where you’re coming from, you’re still playing as Hitler and Nazi Germany. There’s no way around that.
Agreed! However I think there's a point where extra details are unnecessary, just as it doesn't make sense to have concentration camps or ghettos, it doesn't make sense to add the swastika for me. Neither add to the gameplay, they only facilitate a weird fantasy for the wrong people
@@hammotimee That's fair. The fact that iconography and information is somewhat hard to find just tells you that there are still bad people out there ruining the access of it with their beliefs. I like to listen to documentaries while I play and realized I have never actually heard a full Hitler speech. Needless to say, you can't find them here on CZcams.
I love you for making this

I honestly cant tell the difference between british and austrailian accents
Well, British people say "no", while Aussies say "NAAAUUURRRRRRRR"
Yeah idk what I'm doing wrong but after France I can't finish the British or the soviets. By the time I melt France the brits have about 3k planes to my 1.2 k and I can't even push into the soviets in early 1940 cause the have about 2k planes.
He'll, by the time I took France I didn't even have medium tanks
Tbh air is the most important thing for you to focus on Germany, even if you have to dedicate two slots to researching the Improved fighter and engine III way ahead of time it's worth it. Also don't forget to recruit soviet spies and fully collab them
If you're struggling with air you might want to try rushing improved fighters in 1939
Try to integrate the fighter focus into your build before 1939 and use the 100% research bonuses to get heavy MGs, armor and maybe drop tanks on top of the 1940's plane tech as early as possible.
With that you will have planes that will defeat anything the allies have until 1942/43 and you will have a few hundred more of them.
You'll still be outnumbered, but with planes this good the balance will shift in your favour quickly
You should do a German empire guide as I’m having trouble finding a German empire guide
Sounds fun!
I'm not sure if the second silent workhorse is worth it, you got him in June of 1936. He gets you 15% of 1, (.15) per day. That takes 1000 days to pay off. That is about 2.75 years. So that doesn't pay off until March or April of 1939, then you get him for what like 10 more months? So that's about 50 political power that you make off of him assuming my math is ballpark correct.
Why not instead use that money to switch to free trade or get a designer or army advisor, seems a better investment to me
I agree! My opinion has changed fully on this one 😊
Honestly, I want a sweden setup for the winterwar and if they instead joined in (be it after forming kalmar union or aa just mere swedes)

I disagree with the nazi symbology thing. The problem is people start associating the non-nazi specific symbols with the Nazis and start getting offended by those. Germany is now considering banning some of them now due to this very reason (people now associating the symbols with the Nazis).
Keep the actual primary symbology of the Nazis as the the nazi associated symbology.
If we can agree that the Nazi's were bad, why can't we agree that displaying their symbols is also something that we shouldn't encourage?
Also it's not about being "offended", it's about normalising it

@@hammotimeeYESSS! U were right! I rewatched the video and realised that i have to kill the allies b4 engaging with denmark and norway, made some little mistakes and i declared war on the USSR in october instead of april, but with some nice encirclements they died out and in january i got to moscow (looks like my soldiers were more prepared to the winter than the historical ones). Now its only the US and Japan left, but i proclaimed the Greater German Reich!
@@csongorpapp9807 that's great! Congrats mate! 🥳 This is the first day of the rest of your life!
@@hammotimeeHey Hammo, sorry to bother u again, but ive ran into another problem. Ive annexed the US and Japan, and the only major powers left are China and Italy (im going for a world conquest). So i started to justify on some minor nations aswell but the more i justify the longer the time is (like a 2000 day justification on Sian, but its already 1947). How could i make justifications faster? (some background info: world tension is obv 100%, ive generated around 500% alone, stability is 100% but war support dropped down to around 55%, ive got an army of 7.6m manpower in field, but i have 0 manpower with the service by requirement conscription law).

Can someone tell me why I can’t use the agency?

Is the historic german nazi flag not historic?
I don't see the problem with this. No ofc its not NEEDED. But it is fun to be immersed
>Cringe to have the historical flag in historical game.
Yeah okay bro.

In game flag look better that the windmill one. And if i want to play historical the flag is the last thing i care about.

@@leafbou if someone else likes the Nazi flag so much they need it in their game, and they don't understand what it represents, or they do understand but still think it's okay to showcase that, I'm not going to agree with that person
No way, i cant get it . Not in a single game. The Island is ALWAYS protected. In every single game they got like 100 Divisons just waiting for me
Around when are you doing the paratrooper invasion?
@@hammotimee I am trying to invade on the EXACT same day that you do. I have spend literally 7 or more hours following this guide to the letter. I have probably watched your video 6 times and I still cannot invade the UK. They have way too many planes for me to even attempt an airborne landing. It's impossible
I always barge my way over by sea tbh. Did you plan your airborne drops with tons of time to warn them by chance?
After Rineland Tne 4 year pan is better.
A few people have said that! Either or tbh I like the tech boost for the later ones but up to you!
Make speed run vor Japan
I'm not as good as m3an so I won't, but I will make a "how to play Japan"
Conquer with Japan Holand , Britain , France and paratroper pupets in the Pacific , nobody use Paratropers and Naval invasion at the same time ;)
The answer is not banning a flag or symbol, that only perpetuates ignorance. The answer is pure unadulterated truth. Truth is the light that combats the darkness of ignorance.
TS Elliot?
Uh, pretty sure most people dont want truth. For example north americans would dislike the fact that nazis praised how US got rid pf its native population🤭
I personally don't think there's anything wrong with wanting the historical flag for Germany especially if you're playing historically accurate. Anyways thanks for the guide 👌
Name is super accurate
But thank you! Glad I could help 😄
@@hammotimee I don't know if you're joking or not with this response But I would say attacking your viewer's especially over a in game mod that makes a history based game a little more historical is a bad strategy. Like yeah Its a Nazi flag and they were bad we all know that sure some people do it to be edgy but that doesn't change the fact that thats the historical flag and some people just want that nothing cringe about it.
@@thecringemaster2382 Its like they think the funny windmill will summon the entire Waffen SS to wreak havoc across the countryside lmao.
the flag from 36 is awesome... that symbol is thousands of years old.
That's gonna be a no from me champ
..and then stolen by nazis.
The symbol was turned 45 degrees when it was adapted by bad Germany and assumed some very dark symbolism. The original symbol was thousands of years and was originally used to represent in some cultures good luck/fortune. There are some historic buildings in Sydney that used the original symbol in floor tiles I don't remember which ones.
Some people choose to let words and images hurt them. The rest of us have spines and choose to not let history repeat itself by standing up to tyranny, especially censorship.
@@darnaby4110 all the names of the people in the game are the exact same anyway. somehow that's fine, but oh no the spooky spinning wheel is too much!

I'm confused in the beginning you said we're going to take the Rhineland but before we hit play you're going to use the four year plan for the bonus...?
I think what I was trying to say there is to time your focus for the bonuses to be applied to industry and consctruction III, so focuses would be Rhineland > Army > USSR Treaty > Four year plan but it's up to you!
Yeah I messed it up strangely you can't change your mind after you select your focus even though you haven't unpauseed. So I missed out on the big bonus to industry. Two games so far got my teeth kicked in by Europe even with the unholy alliance they were able to ally enough forces together to not only wipe out the full scoped Germany but I even stayed to watch them blitz the Soviets of the map lol. One thing that is really pissing me off about this game.. Italy always attacks Greece. They get their war put in before grease gets backed. But the game still lets grease join the Allies. That's usually what starts the war and I always have to decide am I ready to do this right now and how is this the trigger of world war II... Seriously the whole world is going to fight over Greece knowing that it's already claimed by the axis?! Or in the case of my last game Germany plus Russia.... They don't guarantee their independence they just flat out join the war. It would be different if they let them join the allies and maybe sent them a land lease and volunteers... But to flat out drag the entire alliance into a war with Italy who is in the axis wtf? For Greece??!
Bro I just figured out what I've been doing wrong and losing the game over this whole time. Everything else I was doing right I just wiped the entire game out and put Germany on everything. My problem was I thought I was upgrading my units and sending them more guns and tanks etc when really I was ruining them right in the middle of battle. You would think the soldiers that are there would be happy to receive more troops and more supplies but that's not the case as soon as you click the button that feels like an upgrade they immediately think they're missing everything and collapse into pieces and get Rick rolled from left to right. After I supplied my initial troops I waited till they were either not in battle or I was in peace time and it was insanely easy. Africa is a nightmare... I had to do battles on speed 4 because I thought the game was paused all the time and boy does the Frontline get jacked up in Africa....

The fact that you're putting in all these disclaimers about your politics is cringe and unnecessary.
Spoiler alert, this whole game is about politics, so is history
@hammotimee Yes, and you're shying away from that fact by telling people they shouldn't play with a historical flag. History should not be viewed through the contemporary lens, or it will be always misunderstood.
6:58 (for me)
Hahhaha glad you liked it
Do you complain about the Soviet flag as well?
FYI the Reichskriegsflagge is a fucking Nazi symbol as well
No other symbol is associated with hate like the swastika is
@@hammotimee es ist nicht das Swastika, sondern das Hakenkreuz. Das Swastika und Hakenkreuz sehen sich zwar ähnlich, aber das Hakenkreuz ist 45° gedreht.

I don’t like any part of history being censored. If you sensor symbolic things, where’s the line for censoring other stuff? I believe any game or movie that doesn’t explicitly state that it’s an alternate history should be held accountable to being as historically accurate as can be reasonably expected.
The line is censoring symbols which have been and still are widely used to incite hate. This symbol in question is banned in many countries, don't pretend that all things are equal in terms of impact they can have
That's fine for you to believe that, but you're in the tiny minority of people who have an issue with this

Your build doesn't make any sense, if instead of doing worker conditions you save 250pp you can send attache to Spain and get war eco in 1936
Also, you should hard rush engine 3 almost day one and you don't need to rush the chasis, against the ai you don't don't need that many tanks and in mp it's way more important to have air
More than one way to do something! 😀
@@trujillortrujillo engine 3 rush is monke if you can just convert engine 2 fighters very quickly.
Usually italies job is to do the fighter though since they get very nice buffs for aircraft.

2 tanks by Danzig and 4 by Barb 😂 definitely not the strongest Germany I’ve ever seen.
If France is somewhat competent in a multiplayer game you will get overrun in 39.
I don’t even understand why you would even do the mobile warfare doctrine if all you are going to build is infantry 😝
@@rxzz6862 🤡
@@rxzz6862 I am the clown here, not you hombre
@@hammotimee I see, I’m sorry I misinterpreted you. To be honest your Germany build is good for single player but in multiplayer it will most definitely struggle. Going for mobile warfare as Germany is the right choice because of the amount of discounts for the doctrine and the really good advisors you get for it but if you want to really juice that advantage making a ton of tanks is a must. The real meta in Germany is rushing anti tank techs(because you need the gun to pierce Russian tanks), the fighter(because it gives significantly more stats, to the point where you can absolutely demolish the Air Force of whoever build the basic fighters that you mainly produced in the video) and both machine tools and concentrated (you can always build static anti air if you get bombed). What I like to do is similar to what you did in the sense of using the 100% industry bonuses wisely but instead of doing useless focuses like the ussr treaty and all that just go for annexing Austria and the Czechs as having their industry in 1936 allows you to snowball tremendously.
@@rxzz6862 Yeah for sure it's not optimised for multiplayer, it's more singel player focuses like most of the videos I do, but I wanted to give players that are maybe wanting to get into multiplayer a rough starting point they can work off as well 😁
