And now, the news!——Aside from TNO increasing the scope of Yippie (again), I got nothing. Slow few weeks.
Cold War mod where Operation Unthinkable happened and Russia/East Germany/Poland/Baltics are a bombed out husk.
>>2411140>cold war mod>america undisputed world power
>nsm wins>deletes their entire army>builds nothing>declares war on Canada>annexed by Trudeau is there a bug report in the discord or something lmao
>>2411658They didnt delete their whole army it was probably militia which disappears after the CW.
>>2411658The only forces that get removed post-ACW are the militias. This happens for everyone. What might've happened is that PTF carried Burt's 8 militias into the end and then Burt won via ligitimaty or some shit at the national conference.
Does any Russian path let you invade the US? Maybe the ultranats?
>>2411140that's just From Men to Wolves
>>2411807If the ACW lasts long, NSM wins more often in the conference because they have less buttons that suck PP than PF. PF sinks all their PP into campaigning for brown femboy fascism. Meanwhile based aryanmaxxing Burt saves all his PP to fuck the legitimussy button.
>>2411815Speaking of, what happened to that mod?
>>2411301When you put it like that, it's more of an American Napoleonic mod set in the OTL period of the Cold War.
>>2411658>Patriot Front wins>They have like 40 divisions>Eventually declare war on Canada>Somehow end up at war with the Naval Command too>Naval Command takes over almost the entire US and Canada takes the rest
>>2411812Some russia paths enable justify war. No railroaded focuses let you declare, you get the freedom to do it yourself instead.
>>2411844That is still better than most of my games where Trump/Biden win and then fail to access the post war focuses and rebuild the country.Biden/USB winning especially sucks because the leader could change and softlock them into irrelevance.
>>2411845Pity. Wish the ultranats or the soviets had a narrative driven war against the US.
Make your own general faggot
>>2411851Why though?After Europe, who gives a shit if the US dislikes Russia? Assuming China hates the US too, what is the US going to do?Invade the entire rest of the world to reassert dominance that it lost under the collapse of the union and Canada retreating from NATO?Russia in a 2EUW victory would be more likely to make enemies of an expansionist China, in which case the US would have to make a deal with their devil to beat Russia because either of them would stand no chance against the entirety of Europe (and potentially the remnants of PDTO) alone. That is, assuming China doesnt head into a civil war over losing to Japan first. And assuming PDTO would align with Russia rather than China and the US.
>>2411865I don't care. Go make your own general already
>>2411864>he's still mad we're not using his February TFRhate threadSeethe tranny. Real discussion is being had here.Real TFR PQTRIQTS are in control.
>>24118681. I didn't make the thread.2. Your seething is not my problem.Cope.
>>2411872I'm mad that I can't use a thread I used to like since every time I go here it's "hurr durr how do i have gay sex as pf". Like who the fuck cares kill yourself already you degenerate discord raider.
>>2411879Where did I say anything in >>2411865 my post about "gay sex"?How did you "used to use the thread" if not to talk about HOI4 mods??
>>2411865>Why though?Red Dawn memes, or payback for the humiliation of the Cold War.
>>2411886TNO is a hoi4 mod yet it has a separate thread. Go make your own thread and stop raiding
>>2411892I understand you have lost control of your emotions and common sense but this thread isnt about you. No one cares.
>>2411891How does that make sense in the setting of the mod though?It would just be a world conquest path at that point and that's never challenging just tedious. If a player controls Europe in TFR its basically GG in terms of game balance.
>>2411907>How does that make sense in the setting of the mod though?You're right that it doesn't. It was just an 'I wish' thing, or a thought experiment.I just played World in Conflict and found the concept interesting to see in TFR, is all.
>>2411864TFR isn’t big enough to warrant having its own general.
>>2411865My canon Medvedev>supportive economically with China and Japan pre the Taiwan war>neutral during the war>post Chinese victory begin to supply the Japanese with limited Russian gear to keep that balance of power in check>after the European War form a steady supply chain of captured NATO gear to the newly formed PDTO>during the Great Asian War increase this supply to include modern Russian fighters, helicopters and dronesI really like the idea of Medvedev's Russia being very committed to a multi-polar world and this possibly coming back to bite them regarding China turning on them. Being able to sweep Japan, Korea, Taiwan and India into Russia's sphere is also enticing, though a fractured China would not be in Moscow's interest so it becomes a game of chess between CTSO and PDTO.
>>2411925Cold War type scenario in alt hist happens because there is an imminent threat somewhere in the middle of a fragile peace.In TFR, when the euro civil war is over it's basically done. It's implied that whoever won, won the world already. At that point the number one economy is usually the winner and that basically means the winner is the leader of the new world order, even regardless of the china war or america.
>>2411943(not him but) neither is TNO but I digress.
>>2411943Look at any hoi4 mod thread and compare the ratio between posts about tfr and posts about anything else. The truth is pretty obvious and you lying about it makes me question your intentions
>>2411959There would be more posts about anything else if anything else actually released.OWB? Releasing literally what in literally where instead of map expansion.EaW? The same.KR/KX? They update but they aren't juicy enough to dedicate much of anything.KRG? >KRGOther interesting mods are either demos (Unforeseen Consequences, the Girls' Frontline mod) or toozers (the Spongebob mod)There's nothing else.
>>2411968>Other interesting mods are either demos (Unforeseen Consequences, the Girls' Frontline mod) or toozers (the Spongebob mod)As a huge TFRlover and Mateusz certified TNOhater, I would spam the shit out of this thread with all three of those mods if they were finished.
>>2411968No there wouldn't because the space is already flooded with raiders from tfr discord and there's no room for other mods and many people already left because of that. If anything important ever gets mentioned it's immediately forgotten and the thread is back to spamming retarded questions about a 2 year old path from tfr. The only way to generate more posts about anything else is to purge the slate from you. Either you can do it manually by making your own tfr general or someone will eventually force to do so once your presence becomes too unbearable for everybody else
>>2412005>manuallyvoluntarily I meant
>>2412005This is true btwI am paid by mossad to spam about TFR in this thread
>>2412005Full truth I am task with FSB to promote anti NATO medias.No other mod has the sheer volume of finished content coming out that TFR has.
>>2412005Well, feel free to mention anything you feel is important about mods other than TFR you're playing.I for one am waiting for KX to load. It started last week, so it won't be long now
>>2411864>>2411959>>2412005>complains people aren't talking about mods other then tfr>doesn't post about other modHow about instead of crying you try to start a discussion about something? If every whinging post was about a mod you find interesting then you might actually get a conversation going. I like Red Dusk but I do not think it is in a good place right now, I believe it lacks a certain je ne sais pas - perhaps because it links itself too closely to our otl whilst also wanting to explore alternate history at the same time. The Soviets invading the ex-Warsaw Pact should really be more important then it currently is, for example. The Asian war they are cooking up seems to be filling this void of tangible changes but it is very early stages and I am somewhat uncertain on if the "Japanese Militarism" mechanic is going to be well done given how odd that would be for 2007. The whole experience also feels very vanilla and, in my opinion, the tech trees could do with a solid slimming down - perhaps limiting tech to 2010. Do you want to engage with any of this or are you going to complain about tfr instead?
>>2412168>How about instead of crying you try to start a discussion about something?There's no point since it's already been taken over by raiders from tfr discord and everyone sane already left. You can stop concern trolling. The jig is up already.
>Want to do another ERX playthrough>Mod is getting a big update on the 4th of July so I might as well waitFugg, someone give me another OWB tag to play instead.
>>2412211Roach King. Be careful, though, there are bugs.
>>2412211Did you do a Todd Howitzer playthrough yet?
>>2411844>US Naval CommandSpeaking of, what would their hypothetical content be? Navy wouldn't be much use for anything other that invading Cascadia or California. Maybe they get to control some naval base in California that forces them into a war with APLA? And then since you wouldn't have much use for a navy, you could sell off ships via decisions for fuck ton of equipment and mercs as manpower. Essentially you would be able to build a small number of very good divisions and a decent stockpile of equipment but with your non existent economy you would not be able to replenish anything but basic infantry equipment.
>>2412253Well in game they flat out refuse to integrate with any non-Union of Biden/Trumpist winner so they could start there. PF or APLA winning and then not having a navy is really gay.Second I think the Naval Command randomly selling shit to other tags would just break the balance elsewhere.Maybe if they had a monetary bidding system for buying ships. Lets say Russia wants to buy a small fleet of corvettes, then they place a bid and if not contested by other euro/pacific tags in 30 days they get it. Rinse and repeat until the ACW is won or they capitulate.More black market decisions that cost money for mercs available only to the Naval Command would be cool. But they should probably get an alternate path in focuses for an all american army.To beef up the challenge a little, I don't think they should directly core anything besides California until after the war. Getting a beachhead and entrenching there will be the hard part. Kind of like trying to unify America as Hoover's Liberia or Hawaii in Kaiserredux.
>>2412253>Pirates>In the event the mainland feds lose they could serve as a government in exile claiming to be the real United States of America while the non-fed unifier is just a larper and from there they can either fight to retake America or keep what they have but fight to remain autonomous when the non-fed unifier tries to annex them. There's definitely some things you could do with them. Also maybe a fun separtist route where they join the PDTO and help fight China or maybe even have the option of siding with China and basically being their autonomous navy.
>>2412259On second thought though, bidding is probably not a good idea because you have a limited number of ships to sell. You also need to use them to maintain a presence. You also need a lot of fuel to use them. Your industry isnt good, so you will be running out of money and you will need to sell the ships to stay afloat and produce mil equipment at full capacity. Otherwise you will debt spiral. Because you need to use your civs to import fuel.Maybe you could pull Canada into a temporary faction as well.They should have focuses to secure fuel from Canada and other powers. It could be really fun trying to manage the careful balance of the economy until they can pacify the lower 48.
>>2412253At the start of the civil war they could maybe have a bunch of different paths like trying to secure/scuttle remaining fleets from civil war factions or simply building up an industry.Ship selling can definetly be a part as well but as the other anon mentioned you need to balance it well.The US Naval Command could take part in the Taiwan War and Great Asian War on either side. Give them an additional schizo path where they become pirates that either raid the Pacific or take over some coastline in Africa. Piracy is difficult to simulate but maybe it could work. They could threaten shipping routes and extort different countries for money or just straight up raid cargo ships.Technically they should have infantry divisions anyway because the USMC is part of the Navy so you can justify them getting a few divisions that you can send as volunteers into different wars.These are just random ideas but there is definetly potential for them though it would take a while to actually implement proper ideas and make them work.
>>2412305TFR devs already shot down a pirate path suggestion. If an extremist faction wins the civil war, the naval command should rechristen itself as the old USA, be the Taiwan to their PRC.
Finally! A TNO world conquest playthrough!
>>2412313>TFR devs already shot down a pirate path suggestion.
I know it's a dead mod, but can anyone give ma QRD on Daydream in Black's lore?
I haven't played TFR since it's release. Did they ever unfuck the NSM?
>>2412364No. However they do plan on improving the NSM and adding Blood Tribe (Esoteric Nazism) and Traditionalist Worker Party (Strasserist) paths to the tag.
Is asymmetric warfare doctrine actually good for the ACW or still useless?
>>2411943TNO has its own thread because it's a containment thread. Nearly all discussion is about team drama and other garbage.
>>2412383It's aiight. NATO is still king though. CSTO remains a total meme that gets you killed in every situation.
