    Encirclement is a military term for the situation when a force or target is isolated and surrounded by enemy forces. The situation is highly dangerous for the encircled force. At the strategic level, it cannot receive supplies or reinforcements, and on the tactical level, the units in the force can be subject to an attack from several sides. Lastly, since the force cannot retreat, unless it is relieved or can break out, it must fight to the death or surrender.

    A few tips on playing absolute poverty trash like this:
    - You can use civil war to dupe a focus factory (or triple dockyard focus). If you don't need dockyards or can't get them, MIC is best.
    - This nation's core pop is on the borderline between whether fascism or communism is preferable. Generic tree communist got reworked to give 400 weekly manpower, which stacks with symbol of Marx manpower to get 900/week, or 46800 manpower yearly. For a nation with ~3M core pop, this is regenerating more than 5% core pop into manpower per 4 years. However, you can also get pop from non-core and puppet siphoning, and fascism justifies wars faster, making it generally better for WC. Communism is easier to get off the ground though.
    - Cheapest division to break lines quickly is low width (10-12) with a bunch of soft attack support companies...particularly special forces to the extent you can. In superior firepower this offers competitive soft attack damage/w to most tank divisions after rocket arty, but can obviously be hard countered by high-hardness tank divisions. Good thing AI doesn't use those! GB and mass assault have merit too.

    Those insanely obscure formables are just more mounting proof that the devs DESPERATELY want to let loose and push HoI4 beyond its scope as a WW2 simulator and turn it into a grand strategy like EU and Victoria, except set beyond the industrial era. Even somewhere like the caucasus could be a genuinely fun place to play in if the game had a Millenium Dawn-style economic systems and better peace deals that didn't let you annex an entire country in one go, but the game's natural limitations keep reminding them that no, this is a WW2 game. Play as one of the two funny moustache men and know your place, gamer boy.
