One detail I love is how paratroopers are much more important in this new update than before. Ever since the nerf to the special forces, they more or less existed to snipe victory points and force a surrender. While it is still valid, now you and deploy them onto key supply hubs to undermine defenses.

When will you reform the roman empire in hoi4 ? Hmmm

[jeffreythest]

Supply planes were nerfed pretty hard. The supply they gave when the patch first released was insane though.

[olestsarevsky]

Ludi: Talks about supply
Me with 4hrs playtime in hoi4: Hmm, yes, trains

P.S: If You have time a complete begginer guide for hoi4 would be great. Realy want to play this game, but am feeling overwhelmed by the amount of stuff in it

[PS-G]

this is actually useful tnx
seems like they low key nerfed countries with small economy with this new supply system

[minhphamngoc]

You talked about using transport plane at the release of No step back and it really helped me, thank you for your guide

[maddog]

Thank you so much. This is the best video on logistics that I've seen. And it reminds me to zoom out more since I'm missing a lot of the game by not doing that.
Keep up the good work.

I am mostly a hoi4 player, only recently got into eu4 and it’s super exciting to see you be more involved in hoi4 videos! Love your content ❤️❤️

[texastwostepgaming]

A year later and this still helps. I'm only 60 hours in and some of this clarified things so thanks from the future sir!

[Owenmilan]

Woah 92.5k subs! Bro you might pull this off… I can’t say I’m a big HOI4 guy, but as a simple man, when I see a Ludi video I leave a like!

[Slayercheg]

Well well well... what we've got here... Virgludi and his amazing content. Alright.
Like in advance.

[suedetree]

I remember when I used to play hoi4, I was never able to destroy the french as germany because I always stacked like 20 tank regiments onto a single province lmao

[KairuinKorea]

This video is amazing. I have over 1000 hours on this game, but I still learned some things from this (air supply and scorched earth). Great video! :D

[Microarmor]

This is the most useful hoi4 guide I've seen so far. Thank you!

[ClnlBogey]

Hoi4 is one of those games where if designed a bit differently could have multiple people playing one country. It would be really cool, but maybe impractical, to have a multiple generals for fronts, diplomats, scientists, engineers, etc.
In ways you all would be on the same team, but competing for supplies with eachother to complete your independent goals.

[monsvague]

That was a really useful video, thank you for it!

[VictorianTimeTraveler]

That makes a lot of sense. The only thing I can think of to make it marginally better is make it so that your supplies come from the actual regions where they are being produced rather than from the capital.

I haven't played this game in a long time off to give it another go

[njmfff]

Very useful, I couldn't find any guide explaining supplies, my best guess is they added more detailed mechanics with some dlc before those guides were made.

I've played other Paradox games, but HO4 barely has anything similar with EU4\CK2. Combat for example is helluva lot more detailed compared to EU4, which was already somewhat complex to begin with, and CK2 is basically "have bigger number = you win".

[esprit]

why a lot of division in one province can't get enough supply? even when the nearby supply hub has enough capacity? (let's assume a certain supply hub has capacity of 30 and a lot divisions requires 20 supplies and they stay in the province that is right next to the hub)

Additionally you can directly attach transport planes to your army for less micro.
