I'll be honest. I put field hospitals on everything because I feel like a complete monster if I don't. Like, what, are my commanders just supposed to say "sorry guys, your treatable wounds are fatal now because top brass wanted to put support artillery in and we only have five slots"?

@KCmasterpiece2 Год назад

I feel the same way lmao. But I don't think It's quite like that. Afaik field hospitals represent proper triage centers/hospitals right behind the lines. Even if you dont have field hospitals, your units still have field medics and, ostensibly, personal medikits for the individual soldier.

I usually put field hospitals on my divisions especially if I'm playing the US, Soviets, etc., because it reduces the amount of war support you lose due to casualties, I know there's a decision to get it back up, but it takes time and can cripple you if you're ever struggling with WS. Also, just the reduction in division experience loss can be massive, effectively letting your divisions level up faster increasing their combat effectiveness.

I think the carrier plane question was more of which type of carrier plane, like fighters or cas or naval bombers.

@andreikovacs3476 Год назад

Naval bombers definitely. Naval CAS sacrifices damage vs ship for CAS potential but never in your life will some 50 carrier CAS planes make a difference plus you have shore bombing anyway I do 50% carrier fighters 50% carrier naval bombers because not having carrier fighters may bring a very bad ending. But even 20% fighters 80% naval bombers is a good idea if you have good naval AA Then there's USA with their crap naval bombers, maybe then naval CAS is worth it

In addition to tactical strikes on key front line tiles, nukes are useful for hammering major enemy airbases to give you a leg up in the air war at least on single player. The AI likes to deathstack most of its air force over one or two air zones, and you can whittle them down by pasting the airports around the periphery.

Strategic Bombers are actually very good at shooting down enemy fighters. Of course if enemy has proper design to shoot down bombers it won't work, but people usually make designs good at killing fighters and cas rather than huge planes, it's just more cost/efective so if you make like 200 strat bombers with good self defence capabilities and put them over the frontline you can get some juicy ammount of kills.

@DesertCookie Год назад

5:20 If an entire allies Nation focuses on strategic bombers it can wreck the German economy in less than half a year. I've never had a game where 1000 strat bombers haven't resulted in a guaranteed win in multi-player as most players don't know how to counter it.

When CAS is king, you should naturally assume AA is queen

@andromidius Год назад

Railway Guns are incredible, but so expensive in terms of production and research and resources. But once you have them, oh my its hard to play without them. Only downside strategically is they can't keep up with rapid deep offensives due to rail networks either not being built or needing to be converted to your nation's standards - but they can really get an offensive off to a good start by smashing the front lines, breaking enemy divisions so you can just chain break or overrun them and then have effective free reign behind the lines while your line infantry mops up whatever is left. And yeah, they mince forts - especially if supporting divisions with heavy tanks or a siege expert general using their special planning ability. I broke the Maginot Line in 1937 with very little trouble in my current game (which is a very weird 'historical' setting game - France fell to Germany and the UK was so timid I still managed to take everything else without them declaring war until Poland, where I had already set up a naval invasion on the French coast and Britain fell before Poland did, effectively defeating the Allies in 1939).

@andromidius Год назад

Tank Destroyers with cannons are surprisingly good - and cheap. I use them to bulk out armoured divisions early on, and they bring a good mix of soft and hard attack. Good all rounders, just don't field them on their own.

@joshuawindsor-knox3626 Год назад

Something I find really good about Tank Destroyers is they only require half the amount per battalion as regular tanks this makes them really good I find as France because you can make a medium or heavy tank destroyer with lots of armor and put a battalion in your infantry division and the Germans won't be able to pierce them making stalling the Germans out much easier.

@tsrorst2792 10 месяцев назад

Railway guns and their bonuses are pretty gnarly. I remember during a Barborossa Russia actually had about three of them deployed in southern Belarus and Ukraine. They really hit my ability to push quite hard and brought me to a stalemate in the south. Well, micro at Sevastopol and the Baltics stretched them thin enough to encircle, but when supported they can be quite the force.

@chidy9699 Год назад

@nebojsag.5871 Год назад

Strategic bombers being dismally inefficient compared to its industrial cost is highly historical. You can spam ungodly numbers of CAS and fighters to both support your naval landings tactically, and destroy enemy supplies with supply strike, at the same time, which is what they did historically in 1944. They could have done it much earlier if they had used all that industrial capacity that they squandered on Strat bombers.

@PikaPilot Год назад

An addendum about combat width: the combat width of your division does not contribute that much to the division's effectiveness. You are better off finding the HP/Org balance that best suits you. High HP = lower losses. Low HP, High Org Stacking = longer time in battle = more damage dealt and more damage taken I personally do the following: Offensive Spearheads: 30W Defensive Unit: 20W Garrison Unit: 12W If you want to roll the AI, all you need to do to win is fill more combat width than the other side. Once both sides have filled combat width, only then does HOI4 become an interesting contest of which side has more (attack + defense) per combat width

@NapalmFlame Год назад

Not sure if it still does this, it did last I used nukes, so I'll assume it still works- nuking an airfield immediately destroys the planes stationed there, and since the AI tends to spread out a lot of planes in all sorts of places, getting air superiority on one specific area and eliminating the airfield really dumps on their capability to fight back in the air. Silly little thing for nuke spamming.

@gabrieljoseozanan6989 Год назад

Italy and Ethiopia also get ways to keep on fighting after a capitulation and the focus tree to suplement it. (On Italy's case, it's kinda weird however)

@chidy9699 Год назад

Something not mentioned here that's a huge factor in these questions is your situation/nation. For example, as Germany you will end up with a lot more military factories than some1 like Greece. With that in mind as Germany you can afford more to have a few factories making things like AA or strategic bombers.

@zeroqp Год назад

Don't field hospitals also reduce war support loss on casualties? The percentage of troops saved gives no loss to war support. For example, 1936 field hospitals (lvl 1) give 20% trickle back, and thus 20 % less penalty to war support from casualties. Also, saved troops are returned to their units with the same rank (experience) that they left it in, reducing the overall rank loss. Losing a lot of troops makes divisions rapidly lose rank, which gives a reduction to attack and defence, so in a way, you could say that field hospitals indirectly give your divisions free DMG/DEF.

@PikaPilot Год назад

just want to add a little known tidbit about nukes, in multiplayer settings nukes are SCARY effective when used on... *enemy airports*!!!! planes tend to be some of the most expensive pieces of equipment, so nuking a fully staffed lvl 10 airfield can literally turn the tide of the air war

@rochenmanta838 Год назад

I disagree on the strat bomber one. Hit the railways, the supply depots and your enemy suffers. Sure it can be repaired against but you will (depending on the rail network degrade the hubs by atleast 1 or 2 lvls -> significantly reducing supply and depending on the front give the enemy either moderate combat debuffs or make moderate debuffs a lot worse and inflict attrition and prevent full reorging. Even with a comparativly small amount of strats

@andrewpansch7447 Год назад

I would challenge the infrastructure idea. If you're in civilian economy the penalty to build civs or mils is 50%. There's no penalty to build infrastructure. For UK you can build a few areas to 100% and the few months it takes super early game can take you till you move to partial mobilization. Then there's no penalties and the speed bonuses will catch you up and also allow you to stay on free trade longer as you'll have more resources.

@ruukinen Год назад

The speed bonus from infrastructure is still usually not worth it since you don't build your factories in states with 0% infrastructure.

I think you need to start making Strat Bombers early. Get about 4 to 500 by the time you're ready to use them. Also make sure you have at least 300 fighters to escort them. More if you can afford it. Then use the strategic air doctrine. It is strong. You can also do logistic strikes just like with convoys you can over time destroy all of their trucks and trains killing their logistics and forcing them to use their mills to replace their lost trucks and trains taking away from their ability to make more guns and artilary. It's a game of attrition not something you will instantly notice a difference from. Think of it as playing the long game so you really need to still focus on everything else you would in a normal game.

@igameidoresearchtoo6511 Год назад

This strategy is precisely what I used when I fought 2 gigantic factions at once, (in kaiserreich mod), I played against the reichspakt and the entente and they outnumbered me by a factor of atleast 1-20, I had no hope of doing much so I basically nuked their airfields as soon as the war started (was very late game, ~1955) so I can have air superiority then I bombed the hell out of their AA and kept their airfields down and just demolished their entire economy that way. When I finally capitulated one of the majors I saw they had so many repairs needed that it basically would take me longer than I was willing to play to finish so lol I gave up repairing.

strategic bombing is only strong if you have critical mass with them , i tried doing irland strategic bombing germany and even tho i had doctrine , had best bombers you can make with best ratio of cost to firepower , germany still repaired faster then i could do anything , and i had 500 . woth spies(who supposingly tinybit help) i not went above 2% damage in total factories unless you can field 1k and above they are not worth it as that small trickle of free repair you get from factories will 100% nullify bombinb you do who is a bit ridiculess , i know it needed nerf but compared to pre designed strategic bombing feels useless now

So as someone who likes do dump my industry into spy agencies to RP in single player, are those worth it? I know collab governments and ciphers can be huge but is any other part of it even good?

I use strategic bombers only when playing as either the US, the UK or the USSR.

You have already won by 1943, that's if, and that's a big if, you decide to play as a major or intermediate power. But when your most played countries are: 1. Tannu Tuva 2. Finland 3. Denmark 4. Montenegro 5. Luxembourg 6. Slovakia Victory is not assured by 1943. 1953 with most sure, but as Slovakia for example, it'll take for ages to get anything done. Unless you use exploits for manpower.

Once as Canada I used 12 Motorized Divisions to land in Morocco, and drive to Tunisia so fast the AI couldn't respond. Turned the tide of the war by making the Axis lose in Africa. They were winning up to that point.

Here's another one: do citations/medals assigned to a division officer carry over/apply their effect after promoting to general or field marshall? from what i've seen no but i would like confirmation since i have not been able to find any information about it or anyone discussing it

@andromidius Год назад

Alas, no. Its just flavour at that stage.

@juliano-nr-1 Год назад

the medals remain with the division. they are only useful to generals as xp boosters, effectively giving him a higher level or close to it. As far as im aware no other stats carry over from the division command
