IMO, the mod would be much more interesting if, > It had custom events and custom focus trees > Custom models (for US militia) > An actual modicum of flavour That's the biggest issue - outside of being a perpetual cycle of naval invasions, the mod has no flavour at all.
I think the purpose of the mod is to be a simple quick "scenario" start akin to the vanilla 1936 start date and 1939 start date for people who wants a quick action (reason why we have a 1939 start date) and to play a high castle scenario I don't think the mod wants to be seen as an "actual" mod with new focuses, decisions and models
There's a submod for it called Defying the Axis (or something to that effect) that adds a pretty significant focus tree to the US and at least some events.
And maybe an event/focus or by default, have South America (except Argentina and Chile) be part of the Allies. To and some flavour, make Argentina and Chile be part of Axis.
Good sir, the number of times you say, "please don't yell at me", "I know it's suboptimal, but i don't care", "it's a game, please let me have fun", "I know it's not the best way", "I know it's not the best doctrine by the numbers, but i like it", etc... has grown to an almost comical frequency.

Sadly, in real life America just let the fascists anti-american authoritarians hijack our country, and allowed them to murder the 'arsenal of dmocracy" that America once was, as the shining beacon of light on the hill, and has brought the darkness and turned us into selfish, xenophobic trash people who easily throw our allies to the wolves, deport millions of people because of their skin color, and simp for dictatorships like Russia, China, and North Korea, because our God Emperor is a make-up wearing weirdo oligarch who worships the strongmen of those countries.

37:38 If my various runs as Poland for all its achievements have taught me anything, its that if you are entering a scenario as the disadvantaged party in an air war, AA becomes a mandatory investment (at least in Singleplayer. I'm not weighing in on MP). It might not have the same soft attack as arty, but it does 3 things: 1. add piercing for a cheaper and less resource intensive investment than building AT, which after AA-2 is almost always enough for armor fielded by the AI. Even just support AA filled with AA-2 can give some much needed piercing to your divisons for a low investment, while simultaneously giving you some air attack. 2. Reduce the stat debuffs from enemy Air Superiority. If you know you're going to be under red air, mitigation of the speed and attack/defense penalties that incurs can go a really long way. 3. Shoots down CAS. It might not be many CAS each battle, but when the AI throws literally 10000 CAS at you, and you shoot down 5-10 per battle per day, that starts to seriously add up over time. Any CAS shot down is no longer bombing you, requires replacement, and costs the enemy manpower. And even if you still argue that the CAS shot down by AA is peanuts, the alternative is those planes not being downed at all and just continuing to bomb you. I fully get where you're coming from, where the vast majority of the challenge is an exercise in tedium (and as someone who's routinely had to play games past 1947 for some of the more annoying achievements, I really do understand how frustrating it is to have effectively won, but be stuck slogging through a campaign because you haven't ACTUALLY won yet), so let me instead phrase it as thus: as soon as you could have afforded the IC to build AA for your divisions, you should have done it, as it would have made your campaign easier and thus reduced tedium. I hope this advice helps for future scenarios such as this.
Not related to this video (which was also great btw) but just wanted to say thanks as last night I finally managed to do the Bearer of Artillery achievement and it was due to learning so much from watching you play and especially watching you save disasters haha! Almost had one in my final push when it looked to be going well and then the Axis somehow counter attacked late, was forced to set up the classic Bittersteel stabilising fallback line along a river and some mountains before being able to finally win it and get the achievement - probably would have just given up or restarted the attempt prior to watching your videos over the years!

@jaredjosephsongheng372 I was talking about the Chinese. Im pretty sure the Russians have been converting their entire fleet (or at least whatever sorta worked) into submarines. Unfortunately for them, they dont understand how a submarine works.
I've been playing the mod after seeing your struggle on stream. Its imo ideal for a scenario to build up without alot of pressure to defend the borders because pushing them out of boston and california seems really easy and holding novia scotia isn't that difficult. Florida was so annoying that i deleted the troops there via console. After that it was actually fun. Island hopping in the carribean and dunking on navies is my favourite way to play hoi
I remember when I saw the mod creator post on reddit about the mod. My biggest problem was how he essentially vaporized the navy but gave the German, Italian, and Japanese navy needless buffs. Like yeah sure you can still include a pearl harbor deficit but the entireeeee rest of the San Diego and Norfolk fleets would still exist. I just told him he was fucking stupid to obliterate the navy while buffing the rest of the axis navies for zero gain. (Like serious the NCs or Dakotas weren’t even at least in the production que)
As a fellow carrier naval enjoyer, try the Kaiserriech naval rework mod, makes the ai design realistic ships and task forces that depending on the settings can make naval fun
this could be an epic alt history mod, if they did anything to it other then setting up a scenario. Like if the US had a a new custom tree for promoting revolutions/revolts in the old allies and had some special focuses on defending themselves and calling upon the America's to fight back against fascism. (also some explanations about where the American fleet went, like maybe Germany heard about what Japan was planning told them to hold off and planned a much more massive attack from multiple fronts on both oceans at once) they should also add focuses for the American nations, perhaps a bit generic with the exception of Brazil and Mexico due to them being the largest outside of the US on the continent/continents.
They probably should. Right next to the naval invasion option there's an option to do it from a "floating harbor", which sounds like what you're describing. The big question is, how do you even get floating harbors
@@erikhanseisenheber You research naval invasion tech 2 and the game gives the production for the harbours. Its only really useful if youre planning to do any invasions that have more size than Operation Overlord or 2x24 divisions (any more units will take ridiculous amounts of time to prepare) because of the supply.
You won my heart by declaring, no matter the meta, your love for Aircraft carriers. No matter the game, or era, even Sci-fi, carriers will always be my baby
This mod really missed out on having a Star Trek Enterprise easter egg. Specifically referencing the 2 part episodes where The Enterprise get sent back in time to WW2 to stop time travelling aliens from helping the Germans from conquering the US.
So in this mod, the Axis killed off the Commonwealth, France and the USSR, stole their navies, sunk the US fleet and at no point did the US spool up production prior to being invaded?

How does the most industrious country by a planet size margin only have 36 factories? Why does a US with Canada added only have 1 million Manpower? How did Germany take the entire royal Navy?!

today i found out how to naval invade while playing road to 56
The Backstory about how this turn of events actually happened would more interesting. Did the US Fleet get sucked into a black hole? Why are we still building P-36 in 1942? How does the most industrious country by a planet size margin only have 36 factories? Why does a US with Canada added only have 1 million Manpower? How did Germany take the entire royal Navy?! How did all those counties Invade the US by 1942?!?!?! The Mod is PISSING ME OFF UGH

37:49 1 time i played (Germans, roleplay) with mode where i had Basically infinite resources and i also before i unpaused game i instant build everything from tech-tree & focus tree using command, i had like 100k Jet Fighters on UKs sky in 1 point. I was like roleplaying that German had accuired somekind of future scifi tech what allowed them to build everything instantly.
I'm just putting a question out there: Why are you only able to put like 5 dockyards on ships? Why isn't it like infantry equipment where you can put a lot on it.
Gameplay balancing. Slows down the proscutionrate of capital ships. Screens can have 10. Again, to balance things a bit
@Bitt3rSteel thanks!
