  • I made the extremely wise decision to make my Germany campaign as hard as possible in Kaiserreich since the mod was quickly updated to Arms Against Tyranny.

    one funny thing: for some weird reason my kaiserreich wasn't updated with the DLC
    when i started playing the game i noticed the political tab was quite broken
    and i'm not even joking, when i openned the IMO tab there was a image of Walter White with the text "Jesse, wtf are you talking about"
    this was just amazing.

    Once you're fighting a war on this scale, especially when you buff the enemy nations, it's better just to use the Army Group frontline on fronts you aren't microing. It isn't ideal, but not having to worry about gaping holes in the front while you deal with other things is invaluable.

    In my Qing Playthrough the arms market was what decided my game, being able to build up my army in the beginning, but you are right currently the arms market is mostly good for the beginning. The best countries to take advantage of it are countries with heavily unbalanced factory count (which Qing is in Kaiserreich).

    Amusingly, last word I saw was that the German rework was coming this year- as in 2023. And, in fact, there was a teaser that has people thinking we'll get a Progress Report tomorrow (though we'll see if that pans out).
    Edit: So turns out there was a Progress Report for Germany today- or at least a Minor Monday for Interwar Germany Lore, with promises of the coming Mondays and Fridays having more lore and gameplay overviews in more Minor Mondays and Progress Reports.
    Oh, and as for the actually update? It was said to be "code complete" and in the middle of playtesting. So it's a-coming.

That is the "Second Volunteer Army" in Kaiserredux, it is a breakaway nation in the 2nd Russia Civil War, and I promise you, it is impossible to beat. You can try to play as the "Western Russian Army" which is a bit easier. But really, REALLY hope you can consider the idea, and doing the impossible :)

    To your point about the arms market being 'gimmicky', you literally used it as intended in this game, you where a major power with solid industry selling shit to boost your civilian industry (which yeah a lot of AI buys guns when maybe they shouldn't but for the chinese nations, or the nations in civil war it can be really useful to have that early game armaments boost). And 'just build mills' is *fine* before the war, but during a war you can get way more bang for your buck by just straight up buying equipment to fill gaps, shit like infantry equipment is going to be basically the same no matter who you buy it from and it allows you to concentrate your mills on the good shit. Ofc, as germany who doesn't have control of the oceans and DOES have a massive amount of mills that's not nessecary but say as Canada or non-communist France? absolutly worth it.
