"Guderian's attack will fix everything." "Mein Kaiser, Guderian..." "Guderian was unable to gather enough troops for the counterattack. He lost two of his tank divisions." "WAS IST DAS MANN!?"
I’m thankful that the developers thought ahead for people who don’t wanna play a TNO style card game, since they added a decision to disable the card game. Also, I got Heinz Guderian’s book for Christmas (Achtung! Panzer!), so I’ve been reading it.
Tip for KR. Even if you are playing Germany, support the Carlists with the Entente because the Kingdom does nothing for you if you help them win. However, by helping the Carlists they always join the entente - providing a second front against the Syndicalists after the Halifax conference.
In my game the Spanish joined me against France. Got crushed but still… I basically just held on the Dniper in the east, and the French border in the west for two years until I was throng enough to destroy the commies. Then turned on Russia and won the war. Made the brilliant decision of NOT allying with Austria.
you can let the syndicalists win then declare war on spain for gibraltar before they join the france alliance and puppet them so they always join the war on your side
Another small thing to get that over the internationale. Just always stay on good terms with the Entente and treat them as an extension of the Reichspakt

You can lose divisions even if no encircled but under attack and with no Organization left, as organization is basically representing Morale. The whole division will surrender.
Recently I played German Empire, I was doing Rotten General path (or someone like that, he's in NDVP path, after you make coalition and he can become authoritarian democrat or pathernal authocrat). Tommy said he would be focusing on himself, but still helped in civil wars, I did vice versa. In my plans I wanted to help countries, gain as much allies as I can and try to be peaceful, to prevent France attacking. Before war, I had polish uprising and I easily smashed it, that's why I hadn't problems with Poland later. Lithuania was loyal to me, I helped Skoropadskiy in Ukraine, so Ukraine stayed loyal. I had united Flanders-Wallonia. I wanted to have Ottomans as my allies, but they lost in their war. I managed to gain Georgia as my ally, but Russia gained Kuban' before. With this card game I forgot about Spanish civil war, so I arrived there at the end and couldn't help allied Spain, as it was about to capitulate. Yet Nanjing Clique managed to win in their civil war and even win Japan. I didn’t look at America for entire time, I just knew that in USA syndicalists won and they capitulated Canada, they didn't join the Third International, but they attacked my allies. When the Second Weltkrieg came, France pushed me just because of quantity. Italy was syndicalist and when Austria joined, I sent army there also, just to hold. Romania attacked too, Russia joined with Serbia. At the beginning I was focused on stabilising front with France and I managed to do it, but lost Flanders-Wallonia. Britain was doing landings in Königsberg, Denmark, on the north of Netherlands and above of Berlin (they even took it when my army was going there). I created 6 medium tanks and they were closing landings alone. When I stabilised French front, I headed to front with Russia. Georgia also was holding and survived. Ukraine was pushed so hard and it was about to capitulate, Baltics were pushed a bit and White Ruthenia was ok. I took massive bonus (for which I paid with riffles, support equipment and etc.) and went into offensive. I stopped near Moscow, for a long time I couldn't take it, so I liberated Ukraine, from it took entire south of Russia and then in that time I was training paratroopers. I made about 72 divs, I made template like it's normal infantry (27 width). Then encircled Moscow and took big cities and supply hubs and went into offensive, Russia capped (It was also fighting with Transamur, so I didn't need to take Vladivostok). Then, with paratroopers and tanks I rolled over Italy, encircled a lot of divs at the north of it. Same did with France. Btw in Spain syndicalists won, so after France I capped Spain, British Union, Norway and Sweden. Japan attacked me before I capped Russia, so I capped it with paratroopers also. Last my target is Bkharat Commune (to capitulate the Third Internationale). I just need supply and more airports, after that I will make paradrops and capitulate it. So, paratroopers cared entire game, my fighters gained air superiority since the start, because I focused on producing them.
I just roleplayed it from start as democratic union, focusing on modern army - building lot of trucks n tanks for big mechsnized army with some infantry, building planes and also some dockyards with naval research to battle the syndicalists navy. In the politics I tried to like roleplay what would be good at the time to keep the world situation stable, which surprised me that it worked (probably lot of luck involved), I managed to expand the reichspakt significantly, holding it stable (I only lost belgium and I gained Bulgaria which won the Balkan war, Netherlands, Cuba, Caucas states and later also I joined forces with Austria and their empire, Ottomans littlebit later during the second weltkrieg managed to win and joined me and also Halifax was a succes. Turned out to be great game, losing at start but knowing that all i needed was to buy time with my enormous economy.
I forgot to notice that Austria was strong in my playthrough, it captured Romania, Serbia alone and even pushed a bit north of Italy, so thanks to it I didn't need to think about south for a long time. But those British landings on my territory made me nervous (I also didn't build normal navy, so they just destroyed my fleet, later I just took fleet from all of them)
In my pre update germany game I was very interventionist. I kept all my puppets and managed to take over the Netherlands and Indonesia. I propped up nanjing, but I lost in Spain, ottoman and America (won in bulgaria). I got the Halifax conference. I managed to easily hold France, I sent an army to Singapore to protect it from Japan, and then I pushed Russia hard, capping them. Poland also betrayed me so i annexed them directly into the reich. Then iran and east turkestan (the latter being former Moscow accord) invaded my Russian puppet so I secured my oil and united central asia. By now the French front line was too packed so I naval invaded britain. I took them over. Then I naval invaded france and after several naval invasions I was able to push. Then I secured southern Europe and invaded America. By now Canada had fallen to the csa and sand France to Egypt so I didn't have to obey the Halifax conference and just took everything. Then I went around the world finishing off my opponents, first japan, then china and lastly Egypt.
The problem is that the KR devs don't know how to make an engaging and dynamic story that doesn't break down into 20,000 word historical dissertations. At the end of the day it is a game, not a book. Too much text breaks down the momentum.
@@LaFonteCheVi Finally someone realises that HoI4 is a game, not a visual novel. You can have systems that tell a story better and leave you with some learning as a bonus, like the elections UI, the card game. Dynamic, your mod has to be dynamic.

Tommy went through the exact emotions I had when playing this new patch. I didn't finish my play through because it just wasn't as fun, to me. (I think that disable card game would have helped a little)
U should have actually not understimated it. I didn’t, i was litterally scared all the time but i went for the organisation buffs road ( social democrats). And despite losing all of the east i beat up the French and later the Spanish eventually i had lost half of Germany but not having to deal with anyone else Russia was doomed. They managed to stalemate me for 1 year then it was just collapse. They were out of equipment and their lines were stretched too much.
u already waste time by playing video games so please wait a bit more time (5 minutes) to read how these things work. It literally took me just reading through the politics shit where you block certain factions and reading through card game rules to understand how to play it. And it was done in 10 minutes.
I truly love how they made it overwhelming. It really isnt that hard and I went in knowing that I should roleplay = Best decision, Best hoi 4 game in a Long time, struggle, fear, fun, satisfaction. Very good.
These minigames are all clicking two or three buttons to increase the good variable and maybe have a bad variable to worry about if it's especially complicated. Clutter for the sake of clutter can get _bad_ (see: the entirety of black ice) and this is not clutter. The amount of reading isn't visual novel level, (even then you can just read the tooltips) this is a healthy amount of complexity for the main focus and star nation of the mod.
It's implemented is clunky. It's game play massively deviates from hoi4's core gameplay loop. The genre of card game has low to medium overlap with grand strategy audiences. Aside from all that, it's incredible cleaver and we'll planned out. It should applauded for that.
Best I've done so far was surviving to 1943 holding them back with level 6 forts along every piece of the frontlines east and west but eventually they got me with a huge D-Day naval invasion when America joined in, I had tried multiple pushes into France with tanks but they had fortified up as well and even when I did break through in one territory they had so many troops I only made it a couple tiles then had to pull back
Inside Tommy there are two wolves: One wants to conquer the world with a ruthless militaristic empire. The other wants to leave the rest of the planet in the dust with superior technological advancements. They're both German.
After giving it a try, the card game with the political mini games is such a great addition- makes early game more engaging instead of something you fast forward through.
For anyone interested. Don't play the DU path the first time playing Germany, the devs specifically made it the hardest path and only recommend it if you have some expirience playing KR Germany already
Damn...I played first...I was crushed in 1940 by a huge front of syndies (France-Swiss-Italy) and Yugoslavia (Moscow Accord) from the South. With a very low stability and low manpower. . Yes, I agree. Don´t go the DU path the first time...
Kaiserreich Germany is very overwhelming but I like that because it accurately simulates how chaotic a massive German empire in this fucked up world would be during an economic, social, and political crisis.
i think he might have been messed up cause his tanks got destroyed due to reliability near the end of the vid (nvm i don't know why tommy left them with 0 infantry support LOL
New Kaiserreich is nearly not winable as germany. From 8 playthroughs I propably just managed to win 2 times Also I got no clue what the best meta is in kaiserreich. Everything seems upside down. It tried Kaiserredux and in its current Version its even worse than Kaiserreich. Also need to d figure out where the Option for disabling the card game is r
As much as I like the KR update, the card game was probably the most useless idea they made. I remember a meme of when Serbia got something similar and people made fun of how easy it was to screw it up because the buttons were too appealing to not touch and people struggled because they didn't play the game right.
I know this has nothing to do about a video game. But I know that you react to a lot of war time stuff. You should check out the fat electrician he's really great
I thought with that strong of a Russia you would just retreat from your puppets Take their troop and set a line with least border Also AH is just pain Never get their help
Why not get AH's help? You can easily defeat the Belgrade Pact with volunteers, if you do that, you only have to worry about Romania in exchange for getting the entire Habsburg monarchy and often a stronger Bulgaria

From the Simpsons I'm not a cuckold. Lmao
