ahhh,,, you might wanna guess again about them not taking a cut.

unmerged(163546) said: I purchased HOI4 in 2020 and never had problems with the paratroop drops or naval invasions. I now find that neither function no longer works. As Germany, losing the ability to airdrop troops takes away some of the fun. However, not being able to invade Norway, short of making a sharp left turn through Leningrad, Finland and Sweden seems a bit extreme. I play this game on a MAC and do not have any mods installed. I went through Gothious Rex's 11 points one by one. Even tried launching an invasion of a coastal province near Hanover from Wihelmshaven when I had 100% naval superiority and w...

Just wanted to take a moment to pass along Happy Holidays to all that share my favorite game, HOI4.

As many hours as I have in game, I still learn something about it from y'all, and cant thank you enough. May each and everyone of you have a wonderful holiday season!

my guess is they want no part in this :)

but seriously, what everyone else has said

1 make sure you have the convoy tech
2 make sure you have landing craft tech
3 make sure you dont have any other units assigned to amphib operations
-things changed with the latest DLC and what you use to be able to do with invasions is different
4 make sure the units aren't assigned to something else. ... Read more

Corpse Fool said: Lets keep in mind that they got hit with a -60% armour, so that 40 armour on that recon is actually only 16, which alongside 13 other battalions+companies where it is the sole provider of armour would be ~7 armour. Which means it would only get full protection from stuff that is only ~3.5 piercing.
oh, I only use them with my small SF Divisions... guess I should have mentioned that

heck, you don't have to make it quite that good either, in SP as AI div tend not to have anything that can peirce so you get the armor bonus for a small production cost

Happy Trigger said: I don't get it... How?
max out all the armor. SInce you are ataching it to inf as recon, all you need to do is keep it above 4 kmh speed

this guy has some great breakthrough too as well as giving nice armor ratings. Unless the div you are going against has somekind of AT it should defend against the piercing of even AA. As a supoport company, it only takes 24 per division.

Happy Trigger said: But it can be used defensively too. For example, you can add them to the infantry, to increase their piercing and armor, making them tougher against enemy armored/tank divisions.
think having LARM as recon would do better if you design the larm well ;)

end of day, now there is no longer 2 templates to rule the world.

HFY said: This is a reputation risk for PDX.

They only want to put their name near reliable, low-risk candidates and since the exec who mandates this can't understand code nor quality of code, the metric they're going to pick is current popularity.

You must have proven popularity for them to allow you to share your popularity with them.
Since you have no knowledge of this, I caution you against making salacious accusations.

Findell_HOI said: I guess they would be a tiny bit useful for japan/USA if you are going to do a bunch of island hopping for for almost every other country land based planes are just easier/cheaper.
As USA it's extreemly simple to hold Guam, Wake, and Phoenix Island, and from those you can do your island hoping campaign. Drop some Airbases on each populate with PBY's and Med bombers and walla..

I tend to use Pheonix and Wake to all of Eastern Micronesia, then Grab Carolina Islands to venture into grabbing all the islands in the Bsmark Sea, north to the Ma... Read more

I mean they do damage, but my testing has shown BBs to be more worthwhile building

Gran Strategist said: I know there was an issue a couple of months ago where carrier planes weren't working properly making them effectively useless but that was fixed and since then when I have carriers in my fleets they do significant damage.
