      the Soviet surrender limit keeps refilling because Germany sets up the RKs which annex the lands directly, meaning they no longer contribute to Soviet surrender limit

    29:27 The issue is two-fold:
    1. Collaboration governments count towards the land occupied by whoever made those collab governments. Would've been quicker if you asked Germany for some states with notable victory points
    2. German AI in Road to 56 clicks Reichskommissariat decisions the first moment they can, and those RKs actually *own* the states (and the Soviets have to take their land back in peace deal if they win). Thus, surrender progress changes and it takes even longer to capitulate them
    Though I noticed with these RKs, the AI...absolutely cannot handle the occupation. Since they don't actually have cores on the land they own. So for example Poland, Belgium and the Netherlands in my games keeps rising up while the Allies can't land (those uprisings also end up being convenient for the Allies to land troops if they fail to d-day)

    5:50 the humble destroyer is op, cost 2 shits, repairs in 7 days max, has decent damage for the cost, op speed, op org (fleet in being) consumes 1/8 the fuel of a light cruiser

    • @assatgames9567
      @assatgames9567 7 днів тому +4

      In hoi4 navy, there are only 3 ship designs you will ever need to sink enemy navies. They are cheap and they require very little research:
      1) convoy escort destroyer build: depth charges, AA, and your best sonar -- these go in separate convoy escort fleets to cover your trade or supply lines.
      2) fleet destroyer build: an AA, spam torpedoes, optionally also one depth charge
      3) fleet light cruiser: max out the light attack, nothing else matters
      Numbers 2 and 3 go together to form your main surface fleet. Light attack will shoot escorts only, until those escorts are dead, and then your fleet will focus fire on one capital at a time. The torpedoes will also tend to shred escorts until the escorts are dead, and will then shred capitals. Essentially, you will be killing their ships and exposing their capitals faster than their replacements can enter the fight. It may take multiple battles, but you will demolish one fleet at a time.
      Set it to medium repair, and to split off damaged ships for repair.
      have one or more small fleets of 10 to 20 destroyers on Patrol, with the rest of your fleet in port nearby on Strike Force. *Your Strike Force fleet is big enough to kill the British Navy once it has about 70 ships: shoot for ~20 LC and ~50 Destroyers*.
      when it encounters a large fleet:
      day 1: my Patrol fleet loses some ships, sad. Their fleet loses all of their escorts almost immediately when Strike Force arrives.
      day 2: my fleet loses nothing. Their fleet is dead.
      when it encounters a small fleet:
      day 1: my fleet loses nothing. Their fleet is dead.
      It is a build that is only countered by a better version of itself. Whether you're counting IC or manpower, this is the best strategy for sinking other navies. You can also build subs to help convoy raid, but that's something your main fleet can do even better, once you sink the enemy fleet.

You can adjust the requirements to core the state in the settings when you load up a game, and REALLY helps in getting more manpower so that you don't have to rely on non-core manpower and to actually give more of a use to collaboration governments.
