I like your strategy! My approach is very similar, with a few tweaks: 1) I always release the empire as it reduces territory to be defended and gains tribute in factories over time; you can also import cheaply (Vietnam) without fearing losing the supply sources. I never call them into the war. 2) I think that holding early game against a powerful enemy is key. If you lose too much early on, it is very difficult to recover. 3) My approach in Savoy is to build a supply hub 1 tile back from the border in the northern zone and otherwise build up the forts as you have done. Giving up those few tiles as you do is a good plan as it makes Italian supply a real problem. 4) France exports so much later in the game that I find it overwhelmed with civs so tend to build few of them early game, especially when the main need is for guns. Researching the resource extraction techs aids exports and therefore civs. 5) Also, I find that civs are very slow to build early game so tend to just build mils to cover my main needs, ensuing enough factories for each main weapon (often only 1 factory). The benefit of time allows the necessary stocks to build up without going overboard on mil construction. 6) Your approach with templates and airforces is classic. The democracies struggle early game and in this version, even more so. But with time, they can and do have a viable response to the Germans. The trick is to stay alive! Getting the air techs, especially strong fighters is really important for even with numerical inferiority, you can grind the German airforce over time. 7) Also, tweaking the infantry template is important, to make it as strong as you can over time. I find that each support company has a role to play and my ideal template is 30 width with two art, one each anti air and anti tank with a mech unit and the following support coys: eng, recon, logistics, hospitals, signals. Hospitals help with both manpower and experience losses. 8) I see you didn't bother with the navy, which is a shame. Apart from the burden of oil imports, the navy is important and France's navy is strong. The submarines can crush convoys to Italy and Germany and with mines and interception in the Bay of Biscay and Channel (the German AI's favourite hunting grounds), you can make a kill zone. Controlling the seas off Italy also facilitate invasions and limit attacks on southern France and Corsica. 9) your attack plans were perfect: hit where you can to penetrate and extend their lines, trying for small encirclements when the AI won't give up exposed positions. Having built up your airforce and great templates, you are in a strong position to achieve this. You also attack where there is least resistance rather than smashing your head against a wall. 10) the use of medium bombers on logistic strikes was also a great move and it was interesting to hear you say that you thought this aided in encirclements. 11) regarding forts, again interesting to hear your view. I find that level 8-10 puts the AI off so this is a good level to aim for. The problem always is, having so many priorities and too little time and too many debuffs. 12) by the look of it you deleted your armour and motorised, which surprised me. I always convert cav to motorised and all the armour to the better of the two templates and trickle feed equipment. I also train all troops before the war begins. I find that in the counter strike these motorised units quickly over run the enemy forces, aiding with encirclements. Perhaps being on elite difficulty meant your need for infantry to hold initially was the stronger requirement? Overall, by husbanding your resources and grinding the AI to dust, you left yourself in a victorious position. A great result. Oh and loved the 1812 Overture finale too.

Not releasing the empire was just a clear error from me because it would give less resistance and likely more factories. I built those civilian factories early in the game to hopefully keep up with the German bombing when it starts and to be able to get out forts against Italy as well as Germany. I had done the challenge on my 3rd attempt so I really didn't know what the optimal strategy with the factories was going to be so I just wanted the minimum amount of military factories to get out my 4 armies around the war. I thought that my infantry templates could have been better while attacking that game. I should have tagged into Germany to see exactly how much armor they were utilizing. I think my template ended up being a 22w artillery division with engineer, logistics, support artillery, interwar medium flame tanks, and support rocket artillery. My idea was just to give them a lot of soft attack and make them relatively cheap on supply because of the crazy supply debuff I get at elite difficulty. I think they struggled too much against any type of armor and should have had at least a support anti air or anti tank instead of the medium flame tanks. I didn't bother with the navy because of 2 things mainly. Laziness and also the fear that the buffed German and Italian navies and air forces would just sink it all. I wanted to use it alongside some bombers to destroy the Italian navy in the Mediterranean but I never got around to making the proper bombers and the Italian navy seemed to perform relatively well due to how I buffed them so I got a little scared of sending my navy out there. Still, I should use it more though. The medium bombers helped in encirclements by either lessening the amount of divisions present so that I could break through easier, or giving a bad supply and movement debuff if they didn't move enough divisions away. I wish transport planes were not nerfed as bad as they were though because they would have been very useful to supplement my supply. I also basically traded out tanks for these medium bombers because there was no way that I could produce both. I did that because I felt like testing out if it would work well and allow me to win and also because I felt like I could get them out faster and at a wider scale than tanks. I still wish I had production for the tanks though. I delete my tanks just because I wanted to focus on infantry to hold at the start, I didn't want anything fancy to produce because I was pretty starved of production the last 2 runs. They also give me a large stockpile of motorized which allows me to keep my armies on motorized supply the whole time with usually only 1-3 factories on trucks. I was hoping to get some nice tanks out later but I thought that the planes would be a better call seeing as how the allies were just barely matching the German air force already. I didn't really have the research to get both good tanks and bombers early or the production to produce them because I had maxed out France in terms of factories and needed them all stacked on the bombers to produce them at a large enough scale.

Really cool video!! By the way, I don't know if it will work with the difficulty, but as France, I'm doing now since BBA 8/1/1 template (8 inf, 1 arty, 1 medium tank). It's incredible strong and you can hold in the North without forts with that template. I'm always doing that now and I also form EU in mid 1941! Also, I suggest you to release Algeria as puppet. They'll have a generic focus tree and you'll have some factories when you'll do Blum Viollette proposal because you annex Algeria and gain some cores

@notgeobor

Жыл бұрын

Releasing them as puppets would have been a perfect idea, although I'm not sure how it affects the focuses to get rid of the unemployment debuff. I definitely would try to release as many puppets as I could next time. I'm not sure if that division would have worked in my situation though because I had only barely enough production for my 18 widths. I don't think that at the difficulty I played at that they would have held without forts, and if they did then I would have a really difficult time keeping up with production because Germany would be constantly attacking.

@axels3619

@@notgeobor you can still get rid of full employment even by releasing Algeria as puppet. The interest here is to let them do the generic focus tree and the moment you'll annex them thanks to the focus, you'll have around 8/10 factories in core state. If you're using right France focus tree especially the industrial / colony branch, you can have for free around 8 mils and 8 civs. So in that scenario, you just need to build civs during 1 year and then you spam mils. Also by rushing total mobilisation during ww2 you'll have 0cg. And I confirm again that you don't need forts at the belgian border if you do 8/1/1 template. Germany will never break your lines with that template

Idea: play as Italian east Africa xD

What's the music in this video?

Would be nice if you could show the casualties at the end, and the music playlist in the desc :D I really wonder how a world similar to that scenario would look like. Fascism would probably be shattered way more than ever, since they led their people to the same wars, and lost them the exact same way, as they did 20 years before. And the democracies (France in particular) did not fail, so they have no strength to show for it. Also the Soviet Union is much weaker as a result since they don't grab eastern Europe. A very interesting scenario, delivered with the most skilful gameplay and a banger music.

Yeah I thought that holding against Germany was going to be the difficult part but pushing against them was also quite tough. I was going to use tanks with lots of anti air but suddenly I saw that my air force was beating Germany's and so I switched plans and mass produced cas. Even still, the ai Germany just had so much production and manpower and divisions that the cas felt like it wasn't doing anything so I had to come up with another strategy which was medium logistics bombers. The small logistics bombers pretty much instantly disintegrated from the enemy anti air when I tried it before, but the medium bombers lasted and crippled their supply just enough to push.

I personally struggle with things like 'when do I stop building civs and start building mils' or 'how many mils do i put on guns vs other things?' which is why I haven't played a major to date (other than my friend holding my hand as Germany). I know it's difficult to answer this but do you have any tips for how to better prioritize? For example I *could* build radar all along the Maginot right before the war, but I never see anyone do this, instead opting to continue building mils or forts.

@notgeobor

Жыл бұрын

This is just something that takes time and practice. I usually build a lot of civs because it helps in the long term and I can usually survive on minimal equipment for my troops so I don't need as many mils. For a newer player I would recommend building as many mills as early as possible because that is the easiest way to win especially in the early game which is roughly until ~1941. With that strategy you will do amazingly up until those years and if you only play until those years then there is no need to change strategies. You will eventually notice in those later years or sometimes sooner that your civilian economy is complete crap and that you overbuilt mills. In that situation you can look at your stockpiles of equipment and check which ones you have overproduced and in the next game assign less mills to them or build less mills and instead build more civilian factories or radars because you didn't need the mills on those equipment.

@cuh5018

Жыл бұрын

I agree with the creator here but to simply answer your first question I believe you should build civs to late ‘37- early ‘38 EXCEPT for France. If you’re playing a historical run as France I recommend building 1-5 civs and prioritizing Mils to catch up with the Germans production of weaponry, remember the blitz Krieg relied on fast motorized vehicles like planes, AA and fighters will hinder their assault darastically
