The fact they don’t start with many trains is mega ironic when you consider a major tagline for Mussolini was that he made the trains run on time

@wowisthatgami8293 Год назад

not sure that's irony. trains on time =/= number of trains. Besides, it wasn't true anyway

@_Michele227 Год назад

Italy had lots of trains but they were also used for civilian purposes, leaving less for the army. Also most of the military transportation was done with ships because the materials needed to be taken to Africa too.

@flavioric Год назад

@@wowisthatgami8293 No, the railway transportation system was the jewel of the fascist regime, and trains actually run on time. They were the main transportation infrastructure at the time because most of the people couldn't afford personal vehicles, and even if they could, they weren't suited for medium-long distances trips around the peninsula. It is probably one of the "good things" the regime managed to accomplish in order to reduce waste of time and burocracy, a terrible sickness that still affects modern italy.

@francescoboselli6033 Год назад

@@flavioric guarda che non ha tutti i torti: anche i credevo nel mito "quando c'era lui i treni arrivavano in orario" ma non è del tutto vero: per carità sarà probabilmente stato meglio allora di adesso, ma anche col DVCE vi erano i ritardi dei treni, ma il regime puntualmente li nascondeva (cosa molto più facile all'epoca se consideri la mancanza di un sistema digitale che gestisce l'orario dei treni)

@wowisthatgami8293 Год назад

@@flavioric no this is a very commonly debunked piece of propaganda by the regime for almost a century... The majority of repairs and improvements made after WW1 were done before they seized power (which they tried taking credit for). And there are tons of credible primary accounts of civil trains having unreliable timetables. Maybe modern Italian state has inefficient bureaucracy but at least it doesn't destroy human freedom, or kill and torture dissentients. Stop it. This is just as bad as saying "say what you want, Hitler built the autobahn". Because it's old propaganda and not fully true.

@dantea1474 Год назад

Blitzing Ethiopia is valid and I suspect a design decision. You have two choices, grind generals and deal with the resistance game; don't grind and conqueor. This new way pretty much invalidates the Adaptable strat for Italian generals unless you want to spend massive amounts of PP. I like.

I'm really exited for this DLC and also scared. I think the new Italian Focus Tree is something we wanted for a long time. I think that the new Ethiopian tree though, will cause Italy to lose in the war triggering a chain of events and the game going unhistorical. I think they should've thought of that, but if they haven't then, I guess its time to grind some achievements!

@leannarda.wilson131 Год назад

Well the Netherlands got a filled out focus tree, just the same as many other minor nations, so I doubt it'll cause too many issues. The resistance stuff in Ethiopia post war might cause a few issues with the AI but it might be fine.

I'm excited to see the new plane designer but also kinda scared. It was very convenient spamming CAS easily without much thinking, now you will try to save up some XPs to produce basic models and it's very hard to get those especially with minors starting with little or no planes. Also honestly since tank designer came out, I haven't touched that tool because often times I'm too lazy to design good tanks or not sure it's good enough. Something new to discover though.

@MrHel-hf3nk Год назад

Become un-lazy then or turn the game back to an older version. :/

@luciusrex Год назад

i only ever use the tank designer to add more armor to heavy tanks that i attach to special forces (speed doesnt matter). This way, I add massive amounts of armor without adding too many battalions, if that makes sense. probably only doable with nations with access to tons of steel though

@416KPD Год назад

@@luciusrex Yeah, Steel is always an issue especially for European minors. I was playing Monarchist Lithuania (which is very OP btw if you manage the battles properly) and didn't have enough steel to maintain infantry equipment production and tanks at the same time.

@dvsonface1t Год назад

I may be wrong here, but this guide might be a little dated, please let me know someone if I'm wrong but I believe when you send the ultimatum to yugoslavia they accept your demands now. But this occurrence might be exclusive to Blood Alone (I have all the DLCs except for Blood Alone, No Step Back and La Resistance) Edit: A strategy I would use is instead of worrying about score, conquer france and speed through as fast as possible using the motorized. Conquer France, and sea lion. With your lions share, conquer germany during 1941 when they gear up for the soviet union. Conquer germany, taking any states you werent able to get. Then follow up with russia.

@todo1231 Год назад

Conquering France, Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, and Romania is still possible by justifying on Yugoslavia and paratrooper cheesing France by rushing to exceed that 50 transport plane minimum for paradrops, and using 1 battalion paratrooper divisions.

@@Shiktlah It works when you justify war goal on Jugoslavia and Bulgaria at the same time (170 days), right when you finished your ambition on the balkans. Declare war on them at the same time, usually no intervention by the allies then. Should be around May 1973.
