    I don't think a nation like Italy should commandeer civilian trains. You probably lose more factory output from the stability hit than if you had delegated a mil to built some extra trains. That is not even to speak of the impact that the strikes have.
    To be fair, 48 trains is already quite decent. You capture a few from Ethiopia I think and a lot more from France, so I doubt you even need all those trains to begin with.
    You should probably only click that decision if you are acutely low on trains or if you're a minor with very few mils.

    Its funny how some core states arent cores anymore when forming Rome. Probably the added states from the battle of the Bosporus dlc. The cores that dont work for vanilla Italy are in Turkey and Yugoslavia . Im guessing the new cores weren't tagged after the updates to the game so the new states were never added into the requirement for forming Rome.

    i was thinking, would it be faster to build civs until maybe early 39 or build mils straight off the bat. i know the civs method would catch up extremely quickly once it got going but how long would the mils method be on top

    • @71Cloak
      @71Cloak  2 роки тому +8

      Production wise mils will be on top the entire time. By the time you would switch to mils in my run I have already taken most of the states need to form the Roman Empire. The payback time on building civs is usually 1.5-2 years. Given that I went to war before the end of 36 the civs will have barely had a time to make an impact but the mils will have already helped you start producing more equipment. You can conquer the civs and put them to use but most of the nations you conquer are going to have far more civs than mils.

    I love all your guides, binge watching them this week!
    One question, why the time pressure in this one? Why don't you have time to grind out your field marshall? Edit: answered this right after I unpause the video 🤦‍♂️
    Also you know what would be great. A general guide! Like I'm a newb, so I don't care that much about 100% min-max. But I would like to just pick any faction and start playing without shooting myself in the foot. So kind of, which steps to take before first unpause. Eg. in most guides you delete a bunch of ships in production. Also focus on industry etc.
    So like a rule of thumb guide would be cool, for people who would like to change their government etc

    • @kiriseraph9674
      @kiriseraph9674 2 роки тому

      Probably just make sure your industry tech and focuses are developing, and think about whether you want to go fascist/commie to start expanding early. Set your industry to guns, support, artillery and fighter planes, maybe also cas planes. That usually works

    • @alexzero3736
      @alexzero3736 2 роки тому

      Just 3 things: build civilian factories up to 1938 than build Military and railroads, train your army than upgrade it (every additional division makes training longer) , make sure that you added engineer and artillery to your divisions.

  • @-AytaL-

    I have done some run to form roman empire too. My results are also quite reliable but the strategy is different.
    I do not attack Yougo first but only France. Then once France is about to capitulate I justify on Belgium to bring UK.
    While i'm rushing in Belgium, naval invasion is ready for day 1 war with UK. Then my goal is to keep UK alive but useless by occupying most of its lands and using the fast justify thing from fascist to annex the other minor to form Roman Empire.
    Once all work is done i capitulate UK to finish the war.
    I also end up forming it by beginning of 1939 but i think you can do it slightly faster.
    Final tip is to pick total mob as soon as possible because once roman empire is formed, you can't do it anymore.

  • @acaeti
    @acaeti 2 роки тому +1

    Great video! I found it highly educational!
    I am a little curious - one of the early actions is to train Navy and get enough XP to build a roach destroyer. But in my play through, following pretty close, I barely finished up the ships already under construction much less built a current-Meta Navy. And I didn't see much in this walkthrough that would have depended on the upgraded destroyer. Could you share the purpose of the upgraded destroyer @71Cloak?
    I thought I'd also call out that an understated element is that by taking only a small part of Austria, you leave a buffer against the Czechs, allowing a procedural conquest around Eastern Europe, instead of taking on the Czechs right away.

      They shouldn't be able to join the UK if the UK isn't in the war. Unless they join by focus. Everything I did here was on historical. The UK shouldn't want the czechs in their faction if you are not at war with them.

    So I tried this and had absolutely nowhere near enough equipment to train as many divisions as you had at the start of the invasion of France.

How are you getting enough equipment to have that many divisions that early? I could pull off everything done here but my main problem, not just with this, is that my factories don't seem like they get built as fast as I always see for others, and my equipment doesn't get stockpiled as fast.
