This is a really good mod. Thank you for making it. One thing though the balance on resources seems to be a bit low for Japan.

@Valerian That is a TAD lacking in detail. Can you maybe flesh it out. I dont understand what you mean. Also, what version of BICE are you playing AND you MUST use the GFX BICE submod to get popup info.

Any chance the Norway rework will address the issue that as USSR liberating it I inherit all the resistance problems the Germans have generated?
darthkenson  [author] 9 Sep @ 3:57pm 
As luck would have it the is a Norway rework as a WIP. no details as yet tho :)
SonicLightning8 9 Sep @ 1:46pm 
I was wondering if y'all could do a focus tree for Norway.

Feel free to join the discord. What am I supposed to do with a report like that? You could have screwed up techs, advisors, templates, micros, tank design, air design? You can also always play on lower difficulties at first

knew somebody would say "skill issue" like say something thats wrong with something (like i cant beat germany`s front line and i have over 500 divisons there and they have 5) and somebody will say "skill issue". like try it urself dumbass
Sol Inherent 8 Sep @ 6:37pm 
Sounds like massive skill issues, feel free to join our discord and show templates / production there

How are belgian infantry divisions holding back against 9 medium tanks. Why the fuck do two lines of figter productions barely give me 300 planes by 1940. Seriously, what the hell is up with this mod, I am doing everything right and following the guides but by 1940 I can't get passed france. Does germany suck or is this just how it is?

Like ffs, this is a way more unpleasant experience then BlackIce for Hoi3.

Regardless of the fact that I surrounded and destroyed more than 130 Russian divisions during the fall of 1941 and at the beginning of 1942 Russia has 270+ and they are all much stronger thanks to bonuses.
Older versions were balanced better, this one is practically unplayable as Germany since the end of 1941 :D
The AI ​​of England and Russia are too aggressive and too strengthened.
Godzila.01 8 Sep @ 3:36pm 
This version is terribly unbalanced. England and Russia are much stronger than they should be at this time. Russia has been attacking practically continuously since November 1941 and despite the huge loss of equipment, it is still stronger and Germany is still weaker, it also has a much stronger air force than Germany. England will defeat Italy in Africa by the end of 1941 and land on the mainland.... Operation Torch is launched on June 28th ??!

Not enough information but I expect there is something else you are doing wrong, Have you mobilised? Do you have enough divisions? If you want serious advice you would be better off starting something in discussions where you can post screenshots.
The Bird ..I.. 8 Sep @ 4:49am 
Well, when organizing a offense. The soldiers hardly attack and enemy slip through the lines.
CRAZED UN 8 Sep @ 2:51am 
too hard
mk11 7 Sep @ 1:46pm 
20 is a perfectly reasonable organisation value. But it could be a bit more if you have added radios and signal companies, done some doctrine research, adjusted templates, etc.

The initial German armour template is too heavy on tanks unless you have done some doctrine research and added some radios etc.
Dirty Dorito 7 Sep @ 9:25am 
For gods sake can you please fix the Greek General portraits Pleaseeeeeee
The Bird ..I.. 7 Sep @ 9:06am 
I was playing Germany and the Organization was not over 20.
mk11 7 Sep @ 9:02am 
Are you USSR under the influence of the purge? What do you mean "it should be over 40"? Have you maximised the training and officer laws? Do you have signal companies?
Sol Inherent 7 Sep @ 6:05am 
As what country? Make sure to use radios as well, the org should be ranging from 15-30 in most cases
The Bird ..I.. 7 Sep @ 4:23am 
Is there a way to fix the organization of units? It is so low they cannot even attack. Should be over 40 but mostly around 10.
Dymion 6 Sep @ 7:33am 
Are you planning to add new polish focus tree?
terryscott576 5 Sep @ 10:20pm 
jalby i AGREE 100 PERCENT.

Thank you again for the greatest HOI mod ever!
Without it I would have stopped playing HOI4 at least 5 years ago.
And after several thousands of hours on it... I still can't play any other mod!!!

The problem with France is FRA_phoney_war modifier. France get it after Poland capitulation and then every week it substracts from variables (0.013 from FRA_org_regain for example). This modifier can be deleted only after event france.10 (The Fall of France) which means that after Poland capitulation France is unplayable. There is no other way to rid this of even if to win Germany it stays. This is either a bug or a very strange game design decision.

@lukasincarnite, currently Oct 41 in USSR SP playthrough and not seeing any of that. AI is still doing stupid things where it moves all the forces from one front to another. Tractor factories are still there (not that tractors are much use) and I expect will vanish when I do the focus to turn them into mils. Steel is behaving normal. You didn't do something odd such as run out of energy while having refineries as the low priority for energy?
Sol Inherent 1 Sep @ 8:20am 
that seems like a bug, make sure you play without no other mods
LukasIncarnite 1 Sep @ 6:34am 
I would like to give some honest feed back and my thoughts/opinions on this mod after revisiting it after 6 months. 6 months ago, I played the USSR, it was challenging but well balanced to be playable. However I am unsure what has changed. This time when I played it, it was impossible. The AI of the axis dedicated 90-95% of their forces to the eastern war instead of actually doing any thing at all about the allies (they just walked into germany, the AI refused to acknowledge anyone but me or my friend. so hard focusing players). Not only that, once the eastern war stareted, for some reason all of my tractor factories were deleted and so was my steel production (from having about 80-100 extra steel, changing nothing as the war starts and suddenly being -2500 steel in deficit with no way to find it)

Storky: I had this problem last year for a long time, i had to do some google reddit research and found there is some file {cant remeber which} that needs to be deleted and you will have to re install the game if your problem is the same one i had.
76561198071982452 31 Aug @ 4:31pm 
Why does France get 75% org regain penalty over time (and there is no way to reppel this national idea)? Is this a bug or France is non-playable anymore?
Storky351 31 Aug @ 12:18pm 
hi, for some reason whenever i select the mod in my playlist the game just loads up in vanilla. does anybody know what the problem is or how to fix it?
TN.Franco 30 Aug @ 2:21pm 
I love this mod!
Argentina focus in the future? :(
SaharskaMechka21 30 Aug @ 1:54pm 
@mk11, They get 32% country positive modifier for tanks in the end of 1941 \ begining of 1942, plus they get free tank divisions which makes them undefeatable by infantry divisions if you are not defending in mountains\\
mk11 30 Aug @ 11:02am 
They still get +10% attack if they have completed the focus that modifies the Winter Heating decision.
SaharskaMechka21 30 Aug @ 6:14am 
@mk11, I am not sure about the artic support companies but they dont have the winter offensive spirit. Maybe it is because it was a plain tile, but they still get +40% country modifier lol
mk11 30 Aug @ 12:35am 
@Saharska, Do the Soviet divisions have Arctic Support companies that give +10% attack on Snow? Also is this on USSR core territory? During a winter offensive the USSR gets +20% attack on core territory.
SaharskaMechka21 29 Aug @ 12:58pm 
Soviet medium tanks get 6,9% percent terrain possitiv modifier in the middle of january on a deep snow, snowing tile, easily pushing me while if I want to attack a deepsnow, snowing tile I cant even push a single tile?
Captshades 27 Aug @ 7:48pm 
Thank you!
Sol Inherent 27 Aug @ 6:25pm 
you are good to play for atleast the end of the year (unless Paradox updates the basegame)
Captshades 27 Aug @ 6:12pm 
So is save killing update coming to main too or are we good to play?
Sol Inherent 26 Aug @ 2:56pm 
Can you show a screenshot or elaborate further?
DUMPYSHA 26 Aug @ 2:54pm 
is it just mine or is the Army Div List UI broken?
Timrath 26 Aug @ 1:50am 
Does an old version still exist somewhere?
