It has excellent graphics with an accurate map, which is both designed to be highly playable as well as correctional (merging certain provinces from Hearts of Iron II, adding more provinces overall, making provinces larger or smaller, etc.). Otherwise, I'd highly recommend it over Arsenal of Democracy or Hearts of Iron III any day. I've played quite a lot in the past 2 weeks and enjoyed it.Besides the nagging fact that it has been in beta 1.3 (as opposed to 1.3 final) for almost a year? The AI does a pretty good job in achieving my objectives. If one runs into trouble, I just rearrange forces in the described way. For breakthrough purposes I may temporarily add a second.Д«eyond that I just play the role of the high command, lean back and watch my armies advance. I usually add one to each army, the AI does the rebasing.

an alternate history mod for Hearts of Iron II, Darkest Hour: A Hearts of Iron Game, and Hearts of.

These air corps can be painlessly attached to and detached from armies. Longplay as Republic of Korea in HoI4 mods Kaise. I make air corps HQs with 2 fighter and 2 tactical bomber units each, again augmentable with CAS and/or multi-role fighters. If it runs into problems, I may add temporarily an armored corps or again mountaineers, depending on terrain. I give this army objectives within this strip. Out of 2 or 3 corps I make an army, operating in a strip of 4-5 provinces width. That can be augmented by adding a fifth division like mountaineers or armor. I build corps with 4 triangular divisions and add 2 artilleries, 1 anti-tank and 1 engineer brigade. I found the most joy with army level automation. There are other people, who automate everything and just give the theater HQ orders. I know there are people, who like to control every division, but I can't be bothered with that (at least not with a major nation). I fooled a bit around by playing major powers and found my own balance between fun and micromanagement. They now can be a boon against armor-heavy nations like Germany, Soviet Union and the major allies. It adds a nice feature with the armor/piercing concept, which actually makes anti-tank weapons worthwhile. But I'm not that much pressed monetarily and can easily make up for it by ignoring CK2, so what the hell. I bought TFH for HoI3, even though I'm unsure if it's worth the money (or rather despite that I'm sure it's not). For a newcomer it's certainly the way to go. HoI3 fully expanded and patched is worth a try, even though many of the oldschoolers still prefer HoI2 or one of its clones (Arsenal of Democracy, Darkest Hour and others).

Probably the best way to enjoy HoI3 is to automate everything up to army group (meaning make it AI vs AI - meaning retard vs retard), give your attacking army group HQs realistic and logical objectives, keep a mobile 'fire brigade' under manual control, open a beer and lean back to watch the epic battle (and curse about the dumb AI). It just can't handle all the complicated stuff very well. On the downside, more detail brings more AI problems. There are thousands of events, post apocalyptic unit and brigade types, hundreds of technologies, and more than 40 playable nations. Fortunately you can automate the commander of the western theater to defend automatically and if he has the necessary troops, he will care about garrisoning and defending against invasions. Step into this mod which is a complete conversion of Darkest Hour, an excellent strategic empire building game, and try to take over the Wastelands. For instance, if you're playing axis and are involved in Russia, the allies can an and will pester you with landing operations in France, something you don't want to be bothered with while planning wide scaled operations in the east. You can automate pretty much everything, and unless you're a masochist, you will, trust me. More detail brings more micromanaging, though. Each level is represented by a HQ with its own leader (and unlike HoI2, divisions have leaders too), and putting skilled leaders in high commands actually matters, because the more skilled a leader is, the more he buffs his subordinates. There's a detailled chain of command from division over corps, army and army group up to theater. In HoI3 you're building divisions out of brigades and deploy them to small provinces. HQs merely provide a supply buff in adjacent provinces the skill of a HQ leader doesn't matter, he just has to be a general. There's no higher chain of command beyond corps level.

In HoI2 you're building corps out of divisions and deploy them to large provinces. The scale of HoI3 is a lot smaller, more detailled.
