Win Every Battle with this HOI4 Combat Guide for Beginners 2023

"Dominate Every Battle: HOI4 Combat Guide for New Players 2023. In this video, I try to explain how you can win more battles in HOI4 with this Combat Guide I've tried to make for beginners.

Have 1300 hours on hoi4, clicked this video because the only thing i still have to learn is like combat width's, but for beginners this is like the best tutorial i've ever seen, good job.

I see these massive gameplays and try to recreate them, but they mostly take those parts of game strategy as granted for who is watching. As a newbie, I appreciate the effort, it's helpful!

For those who struggle with rivers, there are a few more useful tips. Engineers or marines help, but I have found the best thing is to use fast units (motorized, mechanized, light tanks) to push as quickly as possible to create a bridgehead. If you can get just two tiles across, you have made 70% of the effort already.

While I do agree with the video, I would also add that planning bonus is definitely something every player should be aware of for offensive units, as it multiplies your offensive stats, similar to how entrenchment multiplies defensive stats. Also putting spies in enemies can reduce both planning and entrenchment bonuses the enemies get.

[ViktorEnns]

Good video. Main takeaway: open the bubbles and look at the stats to understand why the battle isn't going the way I thought. I don't do that enough.

10:10 you dont mention that the tank is low on fuel and the massive debuff it. Cuz it lowers the armor of this devision to 10% of the original value. Therefore having good supply is even more important for tanks if you dont want to suffer high ic losses

This video was amazing, I've got 450 hours on HOI4, but hadn't really learnt about combat stats and all that because I was just playing mods ig, but I thought now would be a good time to learn. I've watched 2 other videos about this, and yours was the best, really helped me !

[DarkWolper]

This is really a great guide, I never really understood why I am loosing battles I thought I had clearly the upper Hand and 3 times amount of troops

[qwertyasdd]

Cheers for the guide, just snatched the game on summer sales and played it the first time, I feel like I need a tutorial for the tutorial to make sense of all the mechanics and buttons lol, this video helped

[gravegamersstudios]

Thanks for the video! As someone who is a casual 1000+ hour hoi4 player, ive been needing some tips and tricks on combat. Thanks for that

[camaradecarter]

I have 1, 250 hours on this game and had no idea how combat worked.

[Ronannnnn]

For beginners it makes sense not to include it but I would have loved templates, what to do with low supply, how to defend better against tanks and offensive divisions and also maybe the tank designer?

[Sidewinder]

5:23 I really like that you include this explanation as not many people know about this or keep it in mind for combat, and even less people that know about it bother explaining it.

[kaskaadd]

Woah this tutorial was actually good. All the other tutorials were pretty complex but this was simple and to the point. Even showed a usable tank template.

[justal]

Bought the game to play with some friends and even with their help I’ve had trouble, this tutorial has been amazing you’ve done a great job. Thank you.

[Eldem_kz]

Thank you so much ! Your video is really helpfull to understand the basics concepts of battles. I just reached 200 hours and I still feel like a total noob. This game has an amazing curve of learning. You explain in a clear a simple manner some crucial things I hadn't understood yet !

[LHelios]

I bought the game yesterdat and i found this really easy to digest, clear examples and pretty nice explanation!

[MoolsDogTwoOfficial]

I was playing as Germany, got lots of planes, improved medium tanks with 14/4 infantry and motorised. However, when I started to break into Belgium it went horribly wrong and they had like 700 defense from air :( And worse thing is that planes take forever to produce so I can't even spam any CAS.

[vfrixqi]

I have 384 hours and i usually just quit due to lack of confidence to win wars and battles in general so this helps a lot thabk you

[madwye]

Only 50 cas planes can change the entire battle, this is incredible
