	First HoI Game Support Apolyton, buy Civilization III: Complete

All right, I've just played a full game as Latvia in 2 hours or so. I think I'll try a more active nation next time. The Germans rolled over the Soviets very early in my game and I just sat there doing nothing.

I've been playing as the Germans in the 1937 scenario. What a great game, but France and England declare war way too early for my taste!

I dunno its 1941 All Europe is Axis (except a small Island named Britain) Netherlands Belgium&France are all taken but not annexed due to Key Provinces in Places you cant imagine /or i didnt see before attacking)

Does HOI seem to work well out of the box or does it need a patch?

The 1.01 patch is out right now and the 1.02 patch promises to improve the AI.

It's more or less the same way as EU2 was. (ie. it has some very glaring problems - which will be fixed - but it is still a good game none-the-less)



I played an interesting game as the USSR where I acted as the main protagonist instead of germany. I went and conquered the mid-east and parts of asia, and was eating my way through nationalist china when germany and Japan delcared war on me. The interesting thing is, Germany conquered Poland and the netherlands without any intervention form the allies or anyone else. It was 1942 when they declared war on me, and I was fighting the Axis all by myself. I was doing pretty well fending them off, even managed to annex a couple of the minors in the Axis... untill those evil finns took advantage of a good opportunity to get their land back and opened a fourth front. (Germany, Japan, China, Finland)

Soviet Demand for Consumers Goods is ridiculous ;=)
In the 1936 Scenario I took all the starting troops to the Asian Front (opened by.. me :=) ) the Asian Troops are no Match even for your nonupgraded tanks&stuff..
also you need the Commanders XP.
in the Maenwhile I ordered Industrie in every country below 5 IC and disbanded the Airforce.
Production set to Zero all send into R&D (Artillery&Infantry mainly)

BTW: Its shorter to redeploy Troops than to let them Walk through the uhm not so good Infrastructure.

Its nice to paly aCountry selfsufficent in Oil,Steel And Coal :=)
I second on teh Eeeevil Finns.

Some have noted that the Soviet demand for Consumer Goods plummets the minute they go to war with Germany.

Yes, it'll go from about ~250 to about 40-50 once you go to war with the Axis.

Supply?
Well you can out it down to ~10 (only some infantry)
put every oilsucking machine into pool also the supply-sucking 'Airforce'.
Or do it as i do frequently.. disband/put in ReservePool ever Unit you have :=)
Upgrade All ICs which are below 3/5Ics => one hard year with only 30-40 Ics for research (or building)
but then industry begins rolling :=)

The 1936 scenario as it stands is broken, even with the patch 1.01. It will be necessary to get "Bolt's" mod to play with a decent challenge. Check out paradox's forums for details.

I'm still playing as Germany and it is now January 1942. I have eliminated the UK and France. Most of western europe is under my rule as well as Poland in the east. Hungary, Romania, Italy, and Bulgaria are all part of the axis powers. Japan was refusing my frequent requests to join the axis powers and then went and started war with the UK. Now the option to bring Japan into the axis alliance is gone. I guess they are their own entity battling the UK, or what's left of them.........

1.02 makes things much better. However, with enough planning and game experience you can easily take out any AI country on Very Hard.
