@AsaTJ my trick to avoid that crap is to fill my bag with protein bars :D

@AsaTJ I have played with the idea of leaders both as obstacles and opportunities and further cementing the player as the guiding hand.

@AsaTJ For example: Hitler is very successfull in rallying for war but as it progresses more and more of his madness come through. Build me super heavy tanks! You cant retreat from Stalingrad! Take the city before X or you are all fired!

@AsaTJ So as a player who wants to win ww2 as germany your job becomes to somehow get rid of him or deal with his messing around. This could be done in hoi4 somewhat but i feel like it would be better in a sequel or something where you can double down on it

@AsaTJ Not sure if its everyones cup of tea but it sounds interesting to me. I am still focusing on military matters here. If you want to highlight and make gameplay around atrosities I dont think that could ever be a hoi game and its going to be tough to make it fun

@DracoImperator @AsaTJ yes, it also changes a lot of player perspective stuff from “fire the ai programmer” to “Fire von Rundstedt” ;)

@DracoImperator @AsaTJ it already works for Italy :D

@ihr_reiseplan @AsaTJ yes! I was gonna mention that and forgot due to twitters dystopian message lengths. Anyone who is interested in playing in a chain of command should try that

@lindakiby @Ajwnicholson yeah no more bat scripts :D

@SolSara wow thats cool, I didnt know that!

What is one HOI4 mechanic you would like to see in another paradox game? or the other way around?

RT @HOI_Game: Today's the last day to get your suggestions in! We'll be putting together a shortlist for you all to vote on in a couple o…

@Seje_Rasmus in which other game? or all of them? Not sure CK2 would make sense with frontlines ;D

@facesofgeorge march of the eagles 3?

@Zervel Hitler / Stalin fanfic incoming

@AGameOfJoes yeah its definitly a weakness of the focus system

@AGameOfJoes I think its pretty cool, but they serve a bit different purposes. The ones in HOI are a lot more about storytelling than direct goals to aim for

@isak79686106 you are not wrong :) Total warfare fits in the european theater, but for other areas and mods it is kinda ill fitting. The conference system also doesnt really serve haggling over stuff and is confusing to most players

@stnylan why dont you like the mission trees in EU?

@SunderedBlips yeah UoC is really visually clear

@Funniejustin @TilFolkvang having seen it now, yes it was excellent
