You forgot about strat-bombing enemy airports! Bombing the airports means that they cant contest you, as well as can kill small amounts of planes at a time (you ARE bombing runways). Something to keep in mind for next time.
thats the main reason germany lost the battle of england. The only short period of time they bombed runaways, they nearly won, but for some dumb intel they didnt noticed
The game started going a-historical because you de-colonized which is considered non-historical by the game, and causes the AI to do non-historical things.
Any idea on how much that affects it? Like I know ahistorical retains realism-lite (compared to random country path game rule settings) and with that adapts to other countries focus paths. I imagine it is something like?
25:17 Not as strange as you might think. In real life the RAF Bomber Command lost a whopping 55k men KIA, out of 125k total men. It was staggeringly dangerous business for the crews.
It was hard reading this sociopaths channels meme. FYI to this psycho, Dresden had those train yards and umbrella factories for 5 years of war before being flooded by hundreds of thousands of women, children and elderly fleeing horrors. I hope this channels operator finds karma.
@@miguelangelcifuentescruz9465 Fact of the matter, if it was 30 or 50 was not that relevant unfortunately. The Brits had as much luck against the Germans with the 30 as the yanks did with the 50.
7:00 My first thought was that you should have focused on the airfield first and maybe civilian factories. If there is no Airfield, you cannot field any planes, and if there is no civilian factories you cannot repair the airfield. Does that make sense in practice, or not?
You'd have to constantly have bombers on those tasks, and they can just send in planes from somewhere else, so it doesnt matter. Better off focusing on mils and civs, sicne that way they cant produce any planes to shoot you down in the first place.
17:10 10% of civs and 20% of mils isnt 30% of their industry, it would be somewhere between the two. If they have 1:1 mil:civ ratio it would be 15% which is still nice
if u didn't know bombing airfields will destroy aircraft based there not many but some and sense the ai doesn’t make fighters with good range it fuck up there mission efficiency
That meme is bs btw. Even Churchill critized the Dresden bombing raid. There is strategic infrastructure in Dresden but the Allies didn't actually target that. They simply carpet bombed the city center. Other bomber group wanted to hit a legitimate target (a ynthetic oil plant outside the city) but couldn't find their target and decided to just drop the bombs over Dresden as well. In the end suburbs were hit, 19 hospitals destroyed and even places like parks and a sport stadium were deliberately targeted. "Pathfinders therefore decided to expand the target, dropping flares on either side of the firestorm, including [...] the Großer Garten, a large park [...] Some 10,000 fled to the great open space of the Großer Garten, the magnificent royal park of Dresden, nearly 1.5 square miles (3.9 km2) in all. Here they were caught by the second raid" Important strategic target: a green open space full of people fleeing the fire. "An RAF assessment showed that 23 per cent of the industrial buildings and 56 per cent of the non-industrial buildings, not counting residential buildings, had been seriously damaged. Around 78,000 dwellings had been completely destroyed." So yea, reckless carpet bombing of a city that destroyed mostly civilian buildings and secondarily some industrial buildings - military or civilian alike. Absolutely a tragedy. After the raid even Churchill was uneasy and wrote a memo to the Air Command: "It seems to me that the moment has come when the question of bombing of German cities simply for the sake of increasing the terror, though under other pretexts, should be reviewed. Otherwise we shall come into control of an utterly ruined land ... The destruction of Dresden remains a serious query against the conduct of Allied bombing."
I have been getting a lot of Ahistorical events in my games too. I've had the Hungarian-Romanian war, Naval invasions by the Axis into G.B., early WW2 in 1938, and other random events... and those were in games where I played as Iran and stayed non-aligned.
0:05 I'm going to say as a British person that Dresden was absolutely wrong. Even the British public of the time weren't happy about it, unlike the Atomic Bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki there was no point to it as by February 1945 the German population presented little threat to the Allies and little impact on the outcome of the war which by February was already a forgone conclusion, the bombing of Dresden wouldn't hasten an end to the war and instead potentially only inspired Germans to fight on longer. Churchill himself even changed the orders of Bomber Command to focus them in supporting tactical bombing of battles and military factories or bases rather than civilian areas moving forwards. It should not have been targeted, in fact while it was a rail hub the actual rail network wasn't attacked in the initial bombing and incendiary bombs which were designed more to kill people were used. It wasn't until nearly a month afterwards that the USAAF did an attack on the rail network and nearly a month later again that industry was attacked. The RAF didn't even possess proper maps of the city before attacking, and 110 factories wasn't even that much and you have to fly over the whole of the Ruhr industrial valley to get to it, thousands of factories that were still fully or partially operational. The city was full of refugees from the advancing Red Army, even in the heavily "recommended" to vote for the NSDAP election of 1933 (when there was violent thuggery and suppression of anyone else campaigning or demonstrating) Dresden itself remained under 50% in favour of the Nazis so unlike the Bavarian homeland of the party it can't even be argued the civilians were die-hard believers in the cause. Then there is the "laws of war" argument that covers why a soldier can pre-emptively kill someone on the battlefield as it is in defence of themselves. I think the argument the bombers weren't committing a war crime "because there was a flak tower firing at them" is very short sighted. To obliterate all civilians because they could "possibly help the war effort" is to put ourselves at the same level as the Nazis and the Soviets. Of course simulating it for a game is as silly fun as doing a "Liberia world conquest" or "France artillery only" so I don't object to the video itself.
You articulated your points very well. I dislike Wehraboo types as much as the next guy, but paradoxically the “anti-Wehrbs” seem to get on my nerves just as much, if not more. From how many of them talk, they just seem to be constantly itching to justify crimes against civilians and to dehumanize the entirety of the German people. They are the same kinds of people who laugh about the deaths of Russian soldiers from their comfy gaming chairs in America. I’d say our generation seems to lack solidarity and respect for our fellow men.
Great opinion but Soviet Union didn't burn down villages with people inside them it didn't murder kids on the eyes of their parents it haven't bombard cities it oblivion.What's your problem with Soviet Union?
It's ironic that you talk about how Dresden was pointless because the target was already defeated, and then say "unlike Hiroshima and Nagasaki" as if Japan wasn't already trying to negotiate a surrender at the time.
No defense turrets, just electronics. 4 engines gives 3 strat bays with engine 3 and 4 and engine 4. Fly only at night, night bombing doctrine is more damage anyway (20% + 1/3 of sorties @50% is more than a flat 30% from Day Bombing). Fly only at night, they don't have air detection unless radar or many planes. In MP, day bomb until they switch fighter, then turn to night during the "no switch rule" time, then switch zones and day bomb until they notice. Refineries first is most impactful, especially with low numbers (i.e. if NZ does this). Also consider sticking with airframe 2s and non-strategic materials, costs 0 aluminum.
Hey Aldra, I have a theory for this challenge - so if you protected Czechoslovakia at Munich then yes, you'd have less time to make bombers, but also you could bomb their industry longer so i think that's all
Theoreticly speaking, given the supply arrives from the enemy capital, couldn't you have bombed railways/ports in eastern germany which would had crippled the entire logistical element of German war effort?
@@therobbu Looking at it, if your troop cannot walk/port to your capital, it is considered encirciled, but it does not mean it has to be out of supply, as you have air supply you can use, as well as cities generating some suply
I think a way you can take out the fighters is if you make escort gunships. There was a plan to equip a B-17 with an unholy amount of .50s which would escort the regular B-17s. They didnt finish it bc escort fighters became more widely mass produced

I remember looking for what missions to use for strat bombing and I remember it stating always target airfields, AA, and refineries. I still think those should be the priority, until the airports and AA are negated enough.
great video :D i like your quick but still detailled style. Just one thing, you cannot combine percentages the way you do. If you add 20% to 10% it's not 30, but rather 15, since you would also need to add the percentage of unharmed factories. With your calculations, 30% of factories would be destroyed, while 170% would be well, which doesn't really work :D (unless you divide it by 2 which gives you 15 and 85)
I see the first slide and i am already slightly agiated: People complain about dresden, because the british ruled coventry as a crime. Thus it is only logical that the bombing of dresden is a crime as well. Same rules for everyone, that's it.
It was a major transport hub and it was required by the soviets to be bombed so that they didn't have to siege the city which would have been far more destructive. Just take a look at what happened to Budapest
I was so excited when I saw this video because this is one of my favourite ways to play a "chill" game of Hoi4. Usually I do it as the US just because of the STUPID bonuses you get through your focus tree for strat bombing. Then it's just a race to get rid of the Great Depression (always easy with the commie exploit) and make a massive, massive mil industry. Thanks for the vid!!
Ground Crews dont boost over 100%, so if your efficiency is already at 100% there is no point in using ground crews. But sure usually there is no other use for the command power so its not a big loss.

Italians in east Africa will attrit with no supply and you can BP on careful. Also, that oil is most likely coming from Romania
Okay I have to say this since you kept saying it over the entire video "X% Of nations factories are destroyed" Now I'm no math expert but 9% of 100% + 21% of another, separate 100% does not = 30%. You even said this correctly once or twice when you mentioned specific factories which were destroyed like when you looked at Italy. Please do correct me if I'm wrong.
@@Aldrahill Seriously though, I didn't know that could happen. Do you have any idea how it could have left a disconnected part? Was there a bad peace deal?
The issue with Dresden is that despite all the factories and rails, that wasn’t what was targeted. The explicit target and aim of the operation was the annihilation of the city and the indiscriminate massacre of its population. Either you condemn killing civilians or you don’t, it’s not a discussion. Go join your friends in the Dirlewanger Brigade, they also thought it was okay to slaughter innocents for military gain.

Also, that oil is most likely coming from Romania
Dammit Turkey not again!
Also, Paratrooper only any nation.
Okay I have to say this since you kept saying it over the entire video
"X% Of nations factories are destroyed"
Now I'm no math expert but 9% of 100% + 21% of another, separate 100% does not = 30%. You even said this correctly once or twice when you mentioned specific factories which were destroyed like when you looked at Italy. Please do correct me if I'm wrong.
Yeah I was being a giant dumbass - I was adding them together, but I needed to provide by 2 :P sometimes I get too excited, clearly

That dresden joke is messed up
You're right, he should have added "not a warcrime btw" orally
True, warcrimes are okay if it's the winning side I guess.
This is a very suspicious game. What the hell is even happening with Hungary and Romania?
Yeah frightening alt history honestly :P
@@Aldrahill Seriously though, I didn't know that could happen. Do you have any idea how it could have left a disconnected part? Was there a bad peace deal?

When is Superheavy spaa only?
The issue with Dresden is that despite all the factories and rails, that wasn’t what was targeted.
The explicit target and aim of the operation was the annihilation of the city and the indiscriminate massacre of its population.
Either you condemn killing civilians or you don’t, it’s not a discussion. Go join your friends in the Dirlewanger Brigade, they also thought it was okay to slaughter innocents for military gain.
No joke unsubscribing.
What if you only use ww1 tactics but still win?
Railroad gun only
