  • Today we return to Hearts of Iron 4 with the first disaster save from No Step Back. This time I'll try and save a German Empire in a bit of a pickle but I somehow make a simple save much worse.
    The save: drive.google.com/file/d/1LanD...

    A alex I thought I may have a disaster game because Italy started a war with the allies in 1938 for 1 week itliy hold and they were advancing in Africa which was suprising but I wasn't when I joined it took us 2 and a half years just to invade France and yougolsiva and Greece. Greece was dead fast when yougolsiva went. Then I see the Russia making war justification on me. And scine most of my tanks still needed training and my supplys was really bad it got to 46 percent and it stayed like that for a bit. Thank god I was able to buld level 2 forts all over the russian border so now it 1942 about to got to 1943 so I have not even advanced in russia and then I got distracted because Belgium and the Netherlands joined the allies took me like 2 or less month's to beat them I had all my tanks there and there were many breaches in my line in russia bearly holding but when I finally defect them I trapped like 28 allied division and resorted the border with Russia almost encircled 20 so divisions because Latvia I forgot what nation it was it just got annexed by russia with out me knowing and I was nearly able to have my tanks push them back a bit with no supply. But now everything is ok got my supplys back to 96 percent getting ready to advance when my tanks get to regular. Oh and iam losing the air war with russia:( and the allies and we lost africa after I joined 1 year later. Italy navy gone my was almost wiped out because we tried to destroyed all the troops leaving Yugoslavia. Anyways I think I got this. Going to invade russia with no air power but so wish my luck

    Supply depots having the highest constructions cost of anything in the game is ridiculous, like I had singular tile on my coast (in korea as japan) that was out of supply and it was much much easier to build a port then a supply depot to keep the division there in supply. They need to make supply depots much cheaper. I don't have the dlc just the free update so maybe there's something in the dlc that makes it not bullshit. Also I wish paradox would care about and update the older dlc so that the focus trees are on the same level as the newer dlc focus trees. Australia and the other commonwealth countries' focus trees suck
