Today I'm going to be using real WW2 German tactics, but in a strategy game!
We will do every operation, every combat and every strategy in the same way that Germany did during WW2.
This will be the most realistic HOI4 game you will ever see!
Welcome to a new series on the channel where we use actual strategy and real tactics throughout history but in a strategy game.
We are going to be visiting various tactics, such as the Blitzkrieg aka WW2 German tactics, Napoleonic tactics, Roman tactics, Japanese tactics in WW2, strategy used in WW1 and so on.
The goal of this series is to showcase every tactic and strategy used in history and see how they hold up in a real game such as Hearts of Iron 4, Total War, Civilization etc.
Can we reach full realism?
Well let's find out in todays episode where we replicate the real German strategy during WW2, but in Hearts of Iron 4!
This is going to be a big HOI4 challenge, because we all know how Hearts of Iron 4 can be with exact realism...

The unhistorical part (and the most annoying if you're playing Allies) is Soviet's meager opposition in the west. Yes, they got destroyed and encircled many times in Belarus and Ukraine, but they keep pumping out more troops so that each step after that is a slugfest to Moscow. Germans irl got to Moscow towards the winter like November whereas Pixel was there September. Also non-agression pact with Japan means Soviet could bring fresh troops from Siberia. The AI, on the other hand just HAD to protect Vladivostok at all costs, even when it being the loss of Moscow and the industrial area

It was actually used by the Nazis, just not by the Generals. It appeared very frequently in propaganda stuff, like the Wochenschau

@OnlyGrafting Год назад

The idea of such warfare is similar to the island hopping tactics in the Pacific. You'd land on a few less defended easy target islands around a larger one, make the islands into bases for ships and planes then kill the shipping around the large island to take it easier. Here you rush around the main supply hubs to split them off from one another, build up your presence on the encirclement then crush inwards on the isolated large city. Basically put, more quick and cheap territory of vital supply importance means more easy kills.

@lorrainemapper7000 Год назад

also the soviet AI doesnt know how to prioritise fronts and it spreads its gargantuan army way too thin by trying to protect the entire soviet border from finland to japan, so it often results in the soviets leaving some of their best divisions on the japanese border instead of sending them west to hold off the germans
