Victor Emanuelle abdicates the Italian crown, abolishes the title, and marries his daughter to Mussolini the pope having annulled his marriage to his actual wife.

Hitler shoots Fegelein and then himself when he is informed of the cancer, Goering becomes the new Fuhrer and eats Mussolinius's gold leaf crown at the coronation thinking it was chocolate.

This is my navy cut/paste, sometimes with minor edits. Naval composition questions are common, so here’s a basic overview. Feel free to search for more. There are, broadly, two current fleet metas. Both hinge upon basic principles of having lots of inexpensive ships, which is currently favored by game mechanics: namely that it’s much cheaper to repair than rebuild, and that enemy attacks scatter randomly across available targets. That means that having lots of cheap ships spreads damage around pretty well, and if you take losses, replacement is easy. In both metas, you generally favor the cost reduction advisor and Trade Interdiction doctrine. The former because more ships, the latter because the best aspects (enemy hit chance reductions) are very early, so you don’t need to spend much research to gain most of the effects, and it strongly supports either meta elsewhere in the tree. Both metas benefit from admirals with visibility reduction. Part of the goal of these metas, btw, is to compete effectively on the seas without having to overbuild dockyards. Ground forces (and thus tanks) are kings when it comes to winning the big wars, so the fleet is more supplemental. Overspending on a navy can hurt you overall. So these help manage cost, and are thus extremely efficient. It’s not that other strats can’t work, they just aren’t as efficient. -- The primary meta right now is a surface one. It favors larger nations, but one need not be a major to see some success. Your strike fleet should be comprised of light attack heavy cruisers (one heavy cruiser gun, many light cruiser guns, radar/fire control/engine/AA, no armor), roach destroyers (maximum cheapness, one gun1, max engine), and a smaller number of fleet destroyers with torpedoes, maybe a depth charge, radar/sonar/max engine. Always at least 4-5 destroyers per capital ship. Set to always engage, never repair (so that always leaps after enemies, and you can control when they go repair). (Since the question came up last time: you don’t need a lot of torpedo destroyers. Once the enemy screens are dead, the battle is effectively over as the torps will kill enemy caps long before they kill your screens. As a naval major, I might build 15-20, but that’s overkill.) The premise here is that the heavy cruiser gun puts it in the second line, immune to enemy screens while screened itself. The light cruiser guns shred enemy screens, rendering enemy capital ships vulnerable. The torpedo destroyers kill the enemy caps. The roach destroyers spread hits around and serve as tanks in that sense. With no armor and max speed, your ships are hard to hit, reducing losses (cruiser armor sucks anyway). And you have lots of ships. You pair this with patrols. These patrols should be a single ship, either destroyer or light cruiser, set to never engage. They should have minimum guns, maximum engine and detection (radar, sonar, and for cruisers, floatplanes). Maybe AA to help vs bombers. Their sole job is to find enemies for your strike fleet, so keep your strike fleet near to your patrols. I usually use the most forward “safe” base, and cover with fighters vs long distance port strikes. -- The second meta is sub3 plus bombers. The subs should have good torps and the best snorkel you have, and be split into packs of 8-12 (any more and there will be operational penalties). Set to engage at high risk (sub3 or sub4 only). Keep them out of shallow water and away from enemy bombers, both of which murder subs. Set them to convoy hunt. Bombers can be NAV or TAC. NAV do better damage by a lot, and are cheaper, so extremely efficient per IC. TAC have better range, and can switch back and forth between the ground and sea war, as needed. TAC also has the advantage of being able to be based behind the fighters, so they aren’t competing for airfields near the front in the ground war (unlike CAS). So the tradeoff is better damage/lower IC vs range/lower research demands/greater flexibility. Play around with both before you lock yourself into a personal doctrine. In this strat, the subs will account for enemy shipping and some surface fleets (sub3 can often engage AI surface groups pretty well), and the bombers will account for enemy subs and some of the surface fleets. It’s an extremely cheap meta, favoring low industry nations, and it can be quite strong. Why sub3? Sub4 is better, but it’s costs are much greater. In addition to the IC cost increase, and an extra steel, it requires chromium...which is much better spent on heavy tanks (if you have it). Trading for chromium to make sub4 is almost always suboptimal to some other option (trading for chromium for tanks, trading for tungsten for tanks, trading for steel/oil/aluminum, or not trading at all). -- So what do you do with starting ships that don’t fit the mold? You can refit destroyers and cruisers to better match the surface meta. Never refit engine or armor (it costs almost as much as building a new ship!). You probably don’t need to refit the destroyers at all, but if you do, imo, make them torpedo destroyers. After all, spending a bunch of IC to turn an existing destroyer into a cheaper destroyer defeats the purpose of the cheaper build. Whereas, if you don’t need many torp destroyers anyway, refitting your early ones is a good way to improve existing destroyers that are poorly optimized. For BBs and BCs, the biggest improvements are usually getting rid of secondary things (eg floatplanes) and maxxing AA, fire control, and radar. These big ships are expensive, so refitting much beyond that will take a year or more. Not worth it. But the AA refit is crucial for these ships, and the radar/FC refit offers good bang for buck. Note that both of these were IRL refits once air power was shown to be effective.
I mean it’s not that complex, it’s just tedious. Four screens per capital ship and you’re good. Make small groups of light cruisers set on “never engage” to spot the enemy. Keep your subs in groups of ten so you can have more groups of them engage more convoys at a time. Refitting armor takes a really long time so avoid it. Your starting ship designs are normally pretty awful so some minor refits can go a long way, but don’t bother once war’s broken out, new ships are always better. The meta right now is light attack spam I believe, the theory is you shred their screens with light attack and then your torpedoes are free to sink the capital ships. While I do build heavy cruisers, battlecruisers, battleships and carriers, I really do think you could just spam light cruisers and win the naval game.
The 'Spanish Armada' coming into support the Italian and Japanese Fleet at the Battle of Biscay is just 2 Spaniards in a fishing boat with a machine gun strapped to the front.
Largest naval battle I've had is when my Japanese fleet sacrificed itself to take out the combined fleets of France, UK, USA, USSR and the somehow untouched navy of the turned Italy. I was fine though, still had my pre 1936 ships that couldn't keep up with Yamamoto. And the last surviving ship, the Hiryu, was sent back to Japan to become a museum ship and pride of the nation.

Just like the 40's

Damn, this game was so nice to watch live, and even better that the Highlights come out so quick! Well done Bo!
I love how the whole bit with braun on the border in China is basically how the ai allies treat you in single player
Stressing over exams and papers, it’s cramming season and only one thing can save and here it is. Hoi4 multiplayer in a nutshell
I feel that. Big pog hours. Research papers can suck my Bokoen.
It doesn't matter what game is being played in the BCU, I love every minute.
Videos like these always get me in the mood for a big HoI4 mp game
Loved the sponsorship on this video best one yet
The non HOI4 vids are super underrated, they’re hilarious
1:34 That's literally the entire reason you're there, Braun
Hungary: *doing some weird shit in the background*
The entire axis: Caught in 4K
Can't wait to hear just the clips of Bo excitedly saying "You're in!"
Braun, May 2021: "Why am I the only one who's caused Chinese deaths?"
I know this episode is more focused on the ETO but I do have to appreciate whenever we get some more of good old galaxy brain Braun
i don't normally watch the streams for very long but this one kept my interest till the end, good shit
i want to know who won that game, it was so damn close
Today's sponsor is kinda pog, not gonna lie. As someone who has used the service in the past, I can confirm that it has quite a lot of funnies. 10/10 would recommend
thank you bo been binge watching all HOI4 in a nutshell vids cuz i jus enjoy you and your whole friend group.
I love this game, cause you can have the largest naval battle in history and literaly nothing happens
First of all...That is the longest paragraph for an intro ever and keep up the funny shit, it makes everyone’s day🤩🤩
Petain went from Lion of Verdun to Hawk of Dublin real fuckin fast.
More Naval battle please, it's always fun and exciting with naval.
FIFTEEN AMERICAN BBS SUNK IN A SINGLE BATTLE. JUST IMAGINE THE CARNAGE THAT BIT OF WATER SAW
Swimmy has got to be the best character in the Bokoen Cinematic Universe
watching it live was truly a fun hours.
the tension is just...
Who won in the end then?
@@ivanvoronov3871 debatable, bo didnt get iwo jima but germany did get moskow
When Kamchatka really does see Japanese Torpedo boats in the North Sea...👁️👄👁️ But only receives thrown binoculars from allied units 🤣🤣🤣
It's been months since a hoi4 video got me that hyped
That dialogue between Bo and Braun at the beginning feels like it's straight up from some Tarantino movie
This mp game was insane to watch for all the twist and turns
missed opportunity to make the English Channel completley unnavigable for centuries by leaving all the wreckage of the ww2 navies there
that moment where someone said I disconected gave me a flash back of the frase ¡¿I am out of here after sitting here?!
Bo “goblin” koen1 puts an ad right before his naval climax
Another video of bo heavily breathing in naval battles
Death toll of the Allied Navies:

You know it’s a bokoen video, when it has a ton of naval forces in it
Another please, we need to see more of this comeback of the century
Reject Pearl Harbour, Embrace Bay of Biscay
thats gotta be the best french pirate ive ever seen
Petain: I am about to do what’s called a pro gamer move.
Real footage from the Battle of Coruscant, 1943 (colorized)
braum: ahhhh peace
bo: GUN THEM DOWN
huh neat
Bo's non-Paradox vids really deserve more views. They are pretty great too.
