My favorite tank doesn't exist in HOI4 anymore.

For a brief period right after the release of the tank designer, you could put rockets on regular tanks (not just SPART) and rocket launchers on tanks did not require tungsten. So, I'd spam T-34s with rocket launchers on them. Then I'd research rocket techs to boost firepower even further.

Yeah, it was probably a good idea for Paradox to nerf that strat. But it was still hilarious. :)

SeekTruthFromFx said: These are reasonable suggestions. I am also frustrated sometimes by the low level of transport plane supply,

I'm not. I've seen what it looks like when transports have a lot more capacity.

HOI3 was famous for transport aircraft being a cost effective alternative to shipping supplies over land in some cases. Like, it cost more to move the supplies across X number of tiles than it did to move the same supplies by air.

I'd rather transports hauling less supply than their historical counterparts than being open to... Read more

Saw this sentence on wiki. I have also heard this point repeated elsewhere. It sounds like a such a weird logic to me. Shouldn't It be equally important between 'countering enemy tactic' and 'your own tactic not being countered'? Thus, initiative being equally important for attcker and defender?
Isn't It then reasonable to say that initiativ...

Välkommen!

That is of course not English, but rather Swedish which will be today's dev diary. This DD will talk about the branches for the military and industrial branches, as well as democratic branches.

This tree has been a collaboration between me and AveeBee[forum.paradoxplaza.com]. We have had a longstanding rule in the HoI team that no Swede is allowed to touch a Swedish focus tree, but apparently that rule flew out of the window as long as the Swede in question was supervised by an adult.

Normal caveats apply, there’s work in progress stuff in here, and things might change before release.

Historical Context
As most of you already know, Sweden was the only Nordic country that was not invaded during WW2, but in a similar way to Switzerland was press... Read more

Alexander 'The Grape' said: Let's have a look shall we?

Maybe I'm wrong, but I think the Japanese tree was done before 35 day focuses were really a thing. This might factor into their awkwardness in the current state of the game.

To be honest, yes, I think a lot of those focuses should be 35 day focuses or reworked in other ways.

But...

...It does occur to me that in some cases, the focuses are kind of bad because to make them any better would make Japan OP from the historical angle. Japan really wanted to punch above its weigh... Read more
