@samueljohnston2516 Год назад

I think its important to mention that Dankus normally plays multiplayer with mods that change a lot from the base game --- so when you watch his games don't expect to have 600+ factories and 60 tank divisions out for barb in a vanilla hoi4 single player game because its probably not even possible. Reasons why for the braindead --> In MP allied players will trade with you to get resources and boost your civ count, but in single player the allied AI doesn't care and obviously the AI economy is just weaker then a players so they will have less mils and thus require less resources from trade - so this means you'll get WAYYY less civs from trade in single player vanilla then a Dankus MP Modded game obviously. Also if you're new and don't understand, the design of the tank won't matter if you don't have fuel, supplies, air superiority (or enough anti-air) and organization in your template - as without these your tanks will either not move or get melted by the enemy, so make sure you check those boxes.

1) heavy flame tank (as any other heavy tank) would be much cheaper if you used a light turret instead of a heavy one (MUCH more expensive) 2) reliability is actually essential for tanks (at least in vanilla). 71cloak has made a comprehensive video about it. Basically, if your reliability is lower than 80-100% and tank amount is higher than 50 per div you'll loose a shit-ton of them while non-combat (attrition, out-of-supply, mountain, desert, jungle, snow, mud, swamp movement penalties, etc.) Forgot to add: heavy flame tank company has the lowest debuffs while constructing a tank variant (e.g. -65% armour instead of -85% on LFTs), that provides better stats for your divs

@googane7755 Год назад

A heavy flame tank might give the most stats but you will still perform worse than a med/light if you're attacking a river or mountain. So honestly just knowing the terrain is the biggest take away here.

Great guide but what about the armor and the breakthrough that comes with it which can be really substantial ( when upping the armor you up the brk automatically). I also wonder why don't we just max the breakthrough ( with the 3 slots etc.) on the tanks ( because they get a bonus to breakthrough for being tanks) and incorporate a couple SPGs in your division where u max out soft attack ( since you get a bonus to SA for SPG's) wouldn't that give a better division overall ? you can even add a TD to insure you can pierce even the expansive heavys ( with the last AT gun one TD gets you to around 160 piercing i think on the division) Keep it up !

@somewhereelse1235 Год назад

I will say that the improved tank for the small cannons is better just because of reliability. As Germany against the soviets, at least in vanilla, you'll lose more tanks than that little bit more you produce unless you're getting encircled. Especially as a major nation, if you're already going for a more expensive tank. As a minor, stick with the basic and you'll be fine.

@combrade-t Год назад

The other day I saw that general defence modifiers also give breakthrough in feedback's video, does that apply to when you get the radio? If so then radios are even more value than currently. Likely easily double breakthrough, that would be completely broken.

@billwilson7841 Год назад

genuine question, especially because of the coming new Italy focus tree; Should Italy even build tranks in this meta or the next one? or is it meta to just pump out decent infantry and support germanys tanks with Air and filler divisions? and if Italy builds tanks, are mediums the way to go or is it viable to make light tank divisions?

@memeuless5563 Год назад

I usually just go for the best most expensive tank with really high breakthrough, max armour max everything. Usually with barb rather than go round the tanks I go through them. I make anti tank tanks into the division for max piercing and SPG tanks for the breakthrough and usually have 10 tank divisions

@dzianisyarotski2584 Год назад

99% reliability tank loses ~30(!) times fewer tanks than a 70% reliability tank from the attrition of any kind, which you will take! You will train, you will go through marshes, and mountains. So yes, that is the reason to go improved chassis, but just not really ahead of time as before. About small cannons and "expensive" tanks. Tanks with machine guns will lose vs tanks with small cannons because of extra SA/HA. Extra hard attack from cannons allows your TD/Tank to trade IC efficiently vs other tanks, where people "saved" IC. Edit: typos Edit2 and P.S. about Heavies and being unpiercable. I really hope you see this Dankus, because I am interested in your opinion. Have you played vs unpiercable heavies as Germany/Russia, who can mass them? Since partial piercing is not yet implemented, the unpierced tank is worth 3-4 (soft estimate, there are tests to prove it) tanks with similar stats, but which are piercable. They are expensive, sure. They attrition because of low reliability, sure. But they outtrade your tanks as hell. There is a solution to just build planes with IC you save and cas them, but still. Can you tell about your experience with HT armor builds or vs them.

@ruukinen Год назад

The relative loss of tanks in a vacuum is not that meaningful because you lose tanks from combat as well which reliability doesn't affect as heavily (high reliability allows you to recover a very small fraction of lost equipment when winning the battle). The important part is whether the tanks lost to attrition bridge the gap in IC compared to just making the more expensive ones.

@dzianisyarotski2584 Год назад

@@ruukinen If take examples from the video: 30 times less attrition. Ok, 20 times less attrition because support companies and 0.5 IC cost per tank. with tank cost of 12. I think the answer is perfectly clear. Another tank from the video will be 0.2 IC cost difference.

@ruukinen Год назад

@@dzianisyarotski2584 Yes but how much is that "20 times" more attrition going to cost you? What if it's only 0.1 IC. It's like saying casualties increased by 1000% from 10 to 100. A huge increase but a minuscule total amount anyway.

@dzianisyarotski2584 Год назад

@@ruukinen I will do the math for you since you are unwilling/unable to do it yourself. you have IC cost of 11.5 and 12. Combat losses are equal in both cases and are y. the attrition losses are 20x and x respectively. 11.5*(20x+y) < 12(x+y). If this is true the IC losses of a new tank model are greater than of the low reliability old model through the campaign. which is x < y/436, which is interpretable as the cheaper older tank is better if you lose less than 1 out of the 437 lost tanks to attrition and other 436 in combat, which is not true in the absolute majority of cases.

@ruukinen Год назад

@@dzianisyarotski2584 You've made your case about this specific imaginary example. In reality the minimum attrition rate kicks in in most cases when you go above 90% reliability. Also the calculation for reliability is not as simple as you make it. 80% compared to 90% usually results in just 50% more losses to attrition than the expected 100% due to how the calculation works. I tried to make my case in the general sense since I don't know which one is worth it in the end and don't have the patience to make the calculation. I'm just pointing out the fact that it isn't as simple as 20x more tanks lost since you lose a lot of gear to combat as well.

I would say reliability is really important if it goes below 80, with maintenance companies that is. But definitely not a 65 reliability tank like you've done here, if you are playing a minor you will have a hard time replacing losses by attrition.

@wvance0316 Год назад

I agree and even with Majors its important. He is arguing that reliability doesn't matter but if you care so much about a few points of cost per tank, then you should be losing your mind over having to replace a full tank just to move a tile, and that is what reliability does. I would argue that you want to try to keep your reliability as close to pefect with maintenance as possible. You should build it as though you have maxed out mainenance comps and if that means you burn some early then fine. But if you are burning tanks moving through tiles late, your design sucks.

While sitting in reserve they also increase the aa value of divisions fighting like 3-fold. with these you can shoot like 100 cas per battle. try to avoid really combating with them since it will cost you a lot of equipment. The main problem with these divisions is micro you need to do, because normally you want to be microiing tanks and do not spread your attention. but they can be a good solution, especially if you can not contest skies at all or while you are building/training fighter force-

What about high velocity cannons and stuff like LT destroyers with superfixed and T2 high velocity cannons or mediums with superfixed and T3 Velocity cannons could that be viable ? Like yeah they’d only be good at destroying armor, but you can just make your infantry have insane soft attacks with cheap flamers and going with Superior Firepower. Also you can lower the cost of tanks with different wheels, so if you wanna do the LT recon or flamers for all of your divisions, including infantry, you can use different wheels, although I think it’s only about a -10 on cost so idk if it’s really a good choice, but am pretty sure there were some other items to lower cost of tanks, although I think it was just another set of wheels that is a -5 to cost so yeah.

@thanatosexcelsior3711 Год назад

I always pushed for 1k base soft attack in a tank division, and then made a separate Tank Destroyer

I saw a bokoen video recently on Canada and he had medium flame tank divisions (not support) Is this because of a mod or is there a reason to do this in vanilla?

@capitanjulietti3436 Год назад

Mod

@capitanjulietti3436 Год назад

They're called assault guns in their finest bruh, they're a good replacement for normal tanks until you get the cannons to make actual tanks

@syclicc9197 Год назад

in the mod bokoen and co play, a variant of tanks called 'assault guns' exist which have a division icon that looks similar to the support flame tank company icon. To my knowledge is an early-game tank type that specializes in breaking infantry or used mid / late game to exclusively push infantry. In vanilla you can use flamethrowers on your line tanks but you cant designate a line battalion as a 'flame' tank, only support companies. FYI do not use flamethrowers on your line tanks, you only need like 1-5 factories on flame tanks to fill out your support companies. Lastly use '34 chassis with 8.0km / hr and a flamethrower for your flame tank and minimize IC. Higher quality flame tanks are not worth it, the stats gained for upgrading flame tanks will be so minimal it won't do anything and will just get you tank defecits later on in the game

@syclicc9197 Год назад

why i say not to use flamethrowers on line tanks is that it wont give the terrain buffs support flame tanks do and they have really bad stats on their own

@eluc_s2510 Год назад

In that mod, Assault Guns (that’s how they’re called iirc) have the same icon as flame tanks in vanilla. They’re not actual flame tanks and you can’t have flame tank battalions in vanilla

@totoburke9583 Год назад

Why do you not use mech in your divisions? Is the extra hardness really not worth the IC cost? Also, are hard counter anti tank TD templates meta if you want to really blow up tanks, or should I just get good or something and not die to tanks with my tanks?

@totoburke9583 Год назад

Also, why not add anti air support companies instead of recon companies? I do think the recon company is important, it’s just that the AA provided by the company will do something if you are getting CAS damaged.

They are hard to research before the war. The time to get enough of them to matter usually means that you never get them.

@nosamk Год назад

So i'm new. I play MP with my friends all the time who are better.. espeically with tanks. they seem to always have better and more :D Is it a make or break when it comes to tank designs? If one template is better will they just slam? Or is it situational with combat widths, opening combat widths, etc. And is isn't worth it to update my chassis ? Just keep the first MED tank chassis for example? also how do you recommend getting better at mirco'ing. That's my biggest flaw. I get overwhelmed easily

for the last support slot support AA is better than recon. recon is basicly useless other than movement speed.

Great video, but the memes in the corner are often placed exactly where we want to be looking, which isn't great for an educational video.

@DankusMemecus Год назад

Yep Markoni here. Fully agree, watching it now will definitely cut down on it.

@nazbolthatcherite6769 Год назад

Hey Dankus. Is support recon really worth it? IIRC, the movement speed bonus from them works against the movement cost of each tile, so it's not actually that great. Also, 71Cloak showed some interesting quirks about the recon stat itself. As for support flame tanks, normally I go with the cheapest possible, like a cost of 4 ic. I don't personally find putting any stats on them to be worth it. Thoughts?

@DankusMemecus Год назад

Movement bonus + a bit of stats is very cheap for the recons cost so yes. As for flame tanks yes the cheapest possible is the best and i therefor used interwar flame tanks in the video but for sure u can make them even more cheap
