My gripe was more that Afghanistan was too separated from anything else going on in the game that I thought it was weird to add content for it. Though ahistorical paths can be a mixed bag of difficulty sometimes such as with the Qing China path or from delaying your industrial buildup in a Russian civil war but of course countries like Austria can massively increase their core territory and owned land just from asking for it.>implying the game didn't already lose the plot and go full on ahistorical nigger larpmode by death or dishonor and waking the tiger
The game is so shit ahistorically. There's no challenge because you get full cores and avoid any challenges by going through the ahistorical path. Even a game like EU4 that's about being ahistorical is more challenging
iran, iraq, syria, afghanistan, rajTSMT. Have they announced exactly what nations are getting content in this update?
Jordan and Palestine are also independent. It would be funny if we got a communist path for israel with Davidovich Bronstein (Trotsky)Doesn't Iran get invaded in historical? It could be a good challenge as a historical Iran fighting against the British and Soviets
I think they will do north africa and the rest of the arab states in a seperate DLC>The Mandate of Palestine is independent but Egypt still isn't.
egypt being independent and a UK puppet or more so colony/dominion would be super fun because it would probably be the only important dominion>The Mandate of Palestine is independent but Egypt still isn't.
I wonder how the Arab vs Irsael conflict is represented in game. Maybe there's two alternative paths with their own focuses but I doubt Paradox would even do something like that. It'll probably just be branching focuses
best i did was survive until late 1938 under the emperor stays path so i didnt get any international help, feel like thats almost impossible to do nowThey buffed the AI in that update but I was still able to rape them by microing all of my infantry divisions
did you get use all of this. no mods?I played Germany yesterday without using any battleplans (except for empty Field Marshal orders for planning bonus) and micromanaged and manually controlled every single division. Every single infantry division and the only two armored divisions I had. I reached Moscow in four months

I reached Rostov, Leningrad, Moscow, then Stalingrad. Most of the war against the Soviets was waiting for two collabs since I didn't bother with spies prior to capturing Stalingrad

By 1942, der Fuhrer has knocked out the Soviets for good and harvested all of their resources to achieve autarky. All without letting the AI control my divisions at all
