I'd be very disappointed if we can't have colonisable moons. Maybe not moons as small and inhospitable as ours, but larger moons certainly ought to be I would hope.

Looking at this image Who is on the left? The Guy on the right is the Communist leader of Norway, but that other guy looks nothing like Molotov or Litvinov, so either not the foreign minister, or the Soviet AI appointed someone else.

Palleon posted:HOI4 needs a Wolfenstein New Order timeline scenario. I am honestly really curious about what kinds of DLC they end up releasing for this game. It seems to me that they could set it up to extend into the Cold War. I think that there are a lot of elements already in place that might make something like that possible, although they would need to flesh out peacetime mechanics a lot more.

You need to control at least one fort to demand any provinces because the AI has a -1000 modifier so if you have 60% warscore from battles, blockades, and like, occupying the Canaries, Castile will never give in because you 'dont have any adjacent forts'.

Influence or whatever seems like the logical choice. Some ideas and decisions and triggered modifiers can increase the limit and so on. Or they could go the Victoria 2 route and make you research better communications technology or faster warp engines or something to manage more? I'm guessing an interstellar empire would have a ton of problems in trying to govern planets/colonies if it takes months or years for orders and replacements to reach them. Especially if the political system isn't exactly run by the best and brightest. (basically all the problems that the British empire had in the 1700's, but in space.)

More from that terrible thread:quote:Things done/committed by german forces or the politics germany executed in its occupied provinces has nothing to do with this, nor will i argue about it. It doesnt belong into this forum, i only say that i would fight for my country, because its my country, if it was in war with another country, i would always choose the side of my country, no matter if my country is aggressor or not, no matter if my country is evil or saint, no matter what would have to be executed. Because thats what it means to serve your country, you do different, you are a traitor. Thats the same for US forces in Iraq. Clean Wehrmacht sighted! How far along are we on Wehraboo bingo? Also that quote reminds me of a line from the Aubrey/Maturin series: quote:“But you know as well as I, patriotism is a word; and one that generally comes to mean either my country, right or wrong, which is infamous, or my country is always right, which is imbecile.”

This reminds me, I think Wiz posted about new fort ZoC rules in 1.14, have they discussed any details yet? I assume this is going to be making it somewhat more inutitive so you don't have guys just waltzing through your forts half the time in the HRE.

I'm guessing that Nazi even thinks the war is Poland's fault for not negotiating with Germany. Never mind the fact that the Germans deliberately made it almost impossible for the Poles to negotiate by poorly communicating their demands, not to Poland, but to the British ambassador, setting impossible deadlines and even when the Poles did indicate that they wanted to negotiate (after having missed the deadline, because it was announced at night and expired the same midnight) the Germans refused to acknowledge the Polish ambassador's authority to negotiate a treaty.

  viccy 2 can get real brutal I actually had to move in an extra 60k men from germany to battle when GB realised he had 100k more men standing in Ireland which were doing nothing both of those battles started with the AI moving like 200k of their men onto a 60 stack of mine, and I could largely ignore it for like 3 months before reinforcing because gas is just so good Another Person fucked around with this message at 11:57 on Oct 27, 2015 |

The funny thing is, as soon as it was used and everyone sorted out gas masks, gas ultimately never ended up contributing decisively in any battle. Fact of the day; whilst Germany was the first to use gas attacks, they basically didn't do themselves any favours, because in the course of World War I, the British would use twice as many gas attacks as the Germans. Moral of the fact: Be careful what you set as military precedent, even if it ends up being useless.

I know it isn't the focus of the game, but I'm reading a book on the 1870 war now and I think it's a shame that V2 never really graps that 'mobilisation wins wars' paradigm that gripped warfare from 1860 up to 1914. There's so much potential in fleshing that concept out and linking it to the Crisis system to bring so much more tension to the game.

Have they said anything about whether or not Communist China will be its own country in HoI 4? I know that China doesn't get a unique national focus tree at launch, but it seems obvious that one is going to be added as a DLC. Having a branch there that allows you to choose between favoring the Communists, the Nationalists, or a somewhat unstable (at first) coalition government, seems like something that would fit into there judging by what we've already seen of focus trees. With the choices you make influencing what countries you will have direct control over while other areas will be seized by rebels or breakway states or something. Maybe even have the option of sucking up to the Japanese and allowing the Emperor Puyi to return at the cost of making both the Nationalists and the Communists hate your guts with a passion.

Yeah I totally understand there's no realistic way for it to have happened in V2's development. The more I turn it over in my head, the more I think it would also need a fundamental change in the way railways exist in the game - rather than being generic province improvements they would need to be actual directional lines linking one area to another. A big deal in the 1870 war was that the Prussian rail network had largely been developed under state guidance for the purpose of aiding mobilisation, whereas the French network was largely privately owned and commercial in focus - that feels like something which would have lots of potential in providing interesting player choices in terms of how they want their infrastructure spending to be focused.
