France has the "Victors of the Great War" national spirit when you hold the line at the Alps. You ended up in a gruelling static war in the Alps for a while... something that did happen in said war. Makes me believe that your fortifications at the fallback line was less building and more reactivating those of the Great War.

Hey just so you know, if you don't have mp's it literally doesn't matter at all how big your garrison template is. Cuz the territories just draw however many divisions they need to reduce resistance automatically based on your occupation law. 6 of one half dozen of another sort of thing

@symphonysystem4846 2 года назад

if you do have MPs, is it better for the garrison divisions to be bigger or smaller?

@epicness5732 2 года назад

@@symphonysystem4846 Bigger. Because the amount of supplies used for support companies is flat for the whole division, and not based on each regiment. So if you have small divisions with mps, it will use more support equipment.

@epicness5732 2 года назад

The only garrison divisions you will ever need are a division of one single cavalry regiment, and a division with mps made of as many cavalry regiments as you can fit. Also, late game, and depending on the country you're playing, the same thing applies but with armored cars instead of cavalry.

switch the supply hub in Venice to motorized, delete your motorized divisions if you have to. the preexisting suply system is sufficient in the alps if you use them right. also consolidate your units, under supplied divisions take huge a debuff and if there're too many some wont even be able to fight in the battle.

It's a very scum way to do it, but if you do no garrisons as france your territories, you get a TON of manpower and guns. The colonies cannot rebel either (they max out a 40% resistance) you get something like 30k guns from it so it is very helpful for a run like this.

@revenanlone8974 2 года назад

Just one idea. When you do Czech/Little Entente. You can have as Yugoslavia 40 mils in like 1938. Just rush puppet releasing focuses (every time go for more puppets) after you done france need to do "Invest to weak ally" after thet just reinstade the empire and voala you have 2 mils for puppet. (Its posible do thet solo but you need to console swap on France and Czech and manage they focuses. For bigger boost you can also do thet with puppets going full industry focuses.)
