Complaining about manpower is kinda meh given the population of all of the Nordic regions is only about 25/26 million now, back then it was only like 15/16 million
@@terrypennington2519 It is really fucking cold up there, like actually fucking freezing. It's really hard to support a high population with extremely low farmable land because as before mentioned it's fucking freezing
@@danielzamora9491 Yeah, there is a lot of shorter focuses. Compared to ancient DLC's. Half of them could just be decisions, but no, lets make a tree that you will barely finish by 45, everyone loves that
@@desran4447you are not supposed to finish the whole tree. You only focus in one ideological path, and then you pick if you want to industrialize the country and what army force you want to specialize and develop. Many tree give you poweful bonuses and if you short them, by 1939 you would have already win the game by how easy is to out maneuver the AI. If there wasnt any shortcomings in time and constraints to the player attention and focus, you would be erasing one piller for the "strategic" inside the game.
Weird thing about the new widths, 20 widths is actually still valuable, no matter in mountains, plains jungle desert or forests, they are still strong. Someone made a chart list of what widths is better for every battlefield and 15 widths got no debuffs, 20 widths is still the balance approach and 35 widths is good for plains deserts and hills.
yeah, I personally think that tank divisions is smart to make 35 widths. Meanwhile Infrantry is smart to make 30 widhts, altought infrantry that you want to hold the frontline is smart to be 15 or 20 widths.
Paradox needs a timeline for designing focus trees. Especially the alt history ones. Something like, first conquest focuses should be achievable in 1938 if bee-lined. Should be politically stable by 1939 if bee-lined. Should have X number of factories based on number of territories if industry focusing... Tired of seeing focus trees (again specifically alt history) were you start playing the game in 1942....
the issue isn't that you start playing the game in 1942, but that every other country has already finished playing by the time you are ready to start. it's like arriving at a party late, it sucks
I’ve got to agree with Tommy here, playing unaligned/fascist-anti-German Sweden it takes twice as as long as it should to unite the Nordics. If you go that route, you don’t have enough time to either intervene in Finland or modernize your army by the time you’re in WWII
I was so confused on how to get the magic school bus achievement until I saw you could paradrop it. I made a level 5 railroad the entire way and made multiple routes to get there the fastest and it still would’ve taken 30 days minimum. It still took a while to get the proper transports and airports in place, but after that it was smooth sailing
@@big_slurp4603nah bba was trash but nsb was the best we got so far. The tank desinger is op compared to the normal tanks and all focus trees are somehow fun
New dlc but issues lmfao. Spending the whole game rushing to unite your area with focuses at the end of your tree is not good design. Max should take two years if you rush so 38 to early 39 still coring them
We are pretty much all related. I thought I was like 99% polish decendant of central poland peasants and I turned out 42% baltic and 18% scandinavian and only ~30% polish
everybody seems confused. DLC is not meant to make the country OP. or even remotely strong enough to be world power. it's meant to present interesting choices. Next, people will complain that Belgium can't do easy world conquest. gimme a fuckin break. it's supposed to be game based on real events.
i feel like they did finland and denmark justice. They seem very fleshed out, and the formables are unique and a very nice addition to the game besides the typical scandinavia. Norway is ok i feel, but fascist path leaves a lot to be desired. Sweden has the most boring and underpowered focus tree ive seen.
Disagree, ive played sweden alot and god damn they have a CRAZY industry. They are meant to be your lord of war nation where you can sell a bunch of shit
Complaining about manpower is kinda meh given the population of all of the Nordic regions is only about 25/26 million now, back then it was only like 15/16 million
Unified whole Scandinavia and got around 15,5 milion people. That's population of Czechoslovakia in the same tíme.
Wow I never realized the Nordic regions had such low populations
@@terrypennington2519 It is really fucking cold up there, like actually fucking freezing. It's really hard to support a high population with extremely low farmable land because as before mentioned it's fucking freezing
There should be cores for scandinavia to northern germany to support its manpower bc historically it had alot of influence there like hanseatic league
@@MatiasA.-nk9kr yeah true i said scandinavia bc i havent looked into the dlc yet didn't know wich formables there was
I swear Hoi4 devs dont know that you can make focuses shorter than 70 days
There are a lot of 35 day focuses compared with other DLC like walking the tiger or together for the victory
@@danielzamora9491 Yeah, there is a lot of shorter focuses. Compared to ancient DLC's. Half of them could just be decisions, but no, lets make a tree that you will barely finish by 45, everyone loves that
Looking at the Netherlands having a 210 days focus. (Sweating nervously)
@@desran4447 well, their explicit goal these days is that focus trees can last the WHOLE game (not just the beginning)

@@MatiasA.-nk9krbecause it’s cheaper to have divions designed for attack and some designed for Defense

18:05 modern day scaninavia only has like 23m ppl.
Basically, you don't have to conquer the Allies and the entire world. You just need to have allies who have a connection from Stockholm to Cape Town.

2:17 Tommy Musical Theater Arc?!
new dlc is fire
Imo it's pretty mid compared to NSB or bba
I agree, I love Finland now even more than before. Probably my favorite minor other than your sister ofc
@@FinnIstGut "its pretty mid compared to two of the most mid DLCs in HOI4"

Ye its a bit of a meme, Finland focus tree is amazing though
Tommy and Hamilton, well thats a combo I didnt knew i needed
We are pretty much all related. I thought I was like 99% polish decendant of central poland peasants and I turned out 42% baltic and 18% scandinavian and only ~30% polish
TommyKay singing Hamilton has become the highlight of my week
Hamilton musical number was top teir
I never knew I needed tommykay singing Hamilton
Everyone said no in my games. It isn't a garuntee
> Stalin
> Slavic
Lol
Europe didn't look too bad after his peace deal at least
i played HOI4 recently as sweden (7 month late), honestly, supporting Folkhemmet and going Royalist is a legit tactic
Haha did you use the succession soundtrack at 22:40?
Rip tommykay 😭🕊️
wth why did he just start singing hamiltion
Tommys a true hamilton enjoyer
because he is closet homosexual (real)
Cause Satisfied is an absolute banger
agreed one of there best songs@@vlance4033
so what is the new unit layout meta since 40width is dead?
15 and 30, just like no step back
Great version of come out you black and tans as you put the brits in their place there Tommy.
Finland Scandinavia is the strongest because you get a bunch of manpower bonuses
2:50 stalin was not slavic, and slavic is not only russians
New Sweden Update < New Old World Blues Updates
as a fin seeing finland as "swedish finland" made me angry
what template you use im new to the game
Tommy be eating before he starts
Hmm yes the resurgence of Swedish empire 🇸🇪🗿👌😎👍✊💀
I didn't watch the video, but as a Swede, I agree.
Isn't 30 template a little too big for the new version of HOI4?
The flag is lazy design imo

Hard disagree, I’ve played Sweden a lot and they have a very good focus tree, Industry is so good with them
If you understand how it works, Sweden is absolutely overpowered, and by far the strongest of all of the new focus trees, especially communist Sweden
Typical bloated trees. I’ll get it when there’s a heavy sale. Great video tho as always Tommy
hey Tommy can you come play Mod OWB agian? especially enclave there a lot of content now since 2 year ago
IKEA tanks best tanks, tho IKEA reliability should be 99% lol
best width in this update?
My god tommy only crying all day, so sad to see. guess his gf took his balls after all.

HOI4!!!!
New Sweden in real life is likewise a disaster
so 30 widh is the new meta?
its still 20
15 for line infantry. Kinda depends otherwise. Seems like 20-30 width works.
Brown ideology sweden is mega OP

Pretty much every German has some Eastern Slavic in them because of the WW2 fallout.
