A crucial tip can’t stress enough to newer players is: READ, read what soft attack does or what piercing does, how armor works, u can learn the entire game by reading everything and production wise, learn the logistics menu, it tells you if your outproducing your consumption or not, if not add more factories to it, or do less battleplan attacks and more concentrated attacks, u can get alot of stuff like guns, support and arty just from encircling divisions and capping their equipment, but it all starts with reading.

I think starting on major nation than micronation helps more, just start with 0 dlc at first then work your way onto the next dlc learning its new mechanics..

My biggest Tip is: READ and COMPREHEND If you don't understand something, read the tooltips, hover your Mouse o er everything that seems like it means something. Running your 24 Infantry Divisions into a City and you're loosing? Press on the Red Battle Bubble, read what the numbers mean a d where they come from. Ideally it would look like this: > Loose attacking city with 24 Divs. > Open Tooltip to read why > Find out about Combat Width, Organisation, Breakthrough, etc. > Fix Division Template, making it bigger, giving units more inf>artillery, concentrate Air over the Airzone, attack with less Divisions at once, use planning > Successfully take City!

Great video for beginners. You’re probably right it is best to learn with a small nation but I’d ad that once you get that down you want to play as Germany.

I’ve never played a game with such a leaning curve

For manpower generally you just want to not attack positions when you don't have the ability to realistically win. Also having high compliance gives you more manpower from your occupied states, so you might want to check if you didn't put on an occupation law that lowers compliance growth. For oil, the best thing to do is to build refineries before war. And be careful how you use your navy. Just a handful of ships can suck up all of your reserves easily without accomplishing much. Also use armored divisions mainly for attack, your normal infantry is perfectly capable of holding the line (chances are they are even better at it) so you can safe a lot of fuel there too

Thanks mate.

Great tips but you kinda forgot that mods make the game fun in the late stages of playing, some go for rt56 multi-player, God forbid comp mp, or kaiserredux, aswell as being creative with your plans and thinking critically, most new players as soviet union for example cannot defeat Afghanistan because of the hard terrain, they should think of the enemy' strengths and weaknesses, for example because their mountains, it would help if mountaineers were deployed, if they have forts, bomb them, if you have green air, distract them and paratroop behind their lines

Check if they are supplied and if you are lacking equipment. If you fight a long war, your (likely small) industry can't really support the amount of troops you have. If you see negative numbers in the storage tab, your divisions lack equipment they need to keep fighting. If they don't get it, zheir fighting strength is very low. My recommendation is to set the reinforcement priority to the highest. Also you should change your garrison division template to a template with only 1 cavalry. This way you can safe tons of equipment, because your garrisons would normally use your standard infantry template, which will use stuff like artillery that costs much industry but doesn't really give any suppression.

I have over 50 hours into the game. And yes…I freaking suck. I can’t get myself to win battles, improve my economy and etc. however I’ve seen myself improving way more nowadays just because I never gave up!

But for infantry thats kinda pointless outside of some space marine builds. The big difference is that armored recon takes light tanks, while cavalry only takes infantry and support equipment.

Honestly the best country for your first run is the US. If you chose non historical AI, you won't be drawn into any way way into 1945, or even later. You can really learn all about focuses and industry, and if you feel like it start a war with Mexico, which shouldn't be too much of a challange. For the 3rd or 4th run, I recommend an non historical Soviet run. The Soviets start with a pretty good army, decent industry, and most importantly you can pick your fights for most of the game, unlike with small European countries. In my experience with playing a small Nation, by around 1940-1941 Germany or the Soviets will have beef with you, and you don't really stand a chance. If you want to learn more about supply lines, try and fight the japanese, for just general combat try and invade Europe. On easy difficulties both shouldn't be a problem even for lower players
