Phoenix_ Posted August 7, 2018 Content Count: 1920 Joined: 05/04/16 Status: Offline Share Posted August 7, 2018 Good Afternoon (Or Morning, or Evening), I am here to announce I am hosting a massive MP for the Steam game Hearts Of Iron IV. Here's the breakdown: What exactly IS Hearts of Iron 4, you may ask? If you don't know what HOI4 is, heres a TLDR of what it is- HOI4 is essentially a World War 2 simulation type game, where time period can vary through mods. It's a strategy game which can be both serious and non-serious. Is the game going to be serious or non-serious? I plan to have the game be a happy medium of both rules that will prevent people from ruining the game for everyone, but there will still be room for memes and random fun for everyone. How many people do you plan on having in the game? I plan on having somewhere between 20-30 people in the game, depending on people's availability and how many people sign up for this. When will the game be? Sunday, August 12th, starting 12PM Eastern Standard Time, but I would ask people gather in the discord around an hour before so we can start as close to on time as possible. What mods will be used? Player Led Peace Conferences and No Division Limit. These will prevent puppets from doing weird things, and allow any newer player to have ease managing armies. How long will the game last? Depending on the skill of the players and how balanced the sides are, the game could take between 3-7 hours time. Are you a reliable host? With far too much time on my hands, good internet, and over 900 hours in the game, I am both a reliable player and host. How do I sign up? Just simply reply to this post with what country you would like to play. I will make a list of countries I will allow in the next section, the italicised countries being majors, which I would require someone with 100+ hours to play, anything else is open to everyone. Country List- United States of America- France- United Kingdom- German Reich- Italy- Soviet Union- LargeAll Japan- China- Phoenix (me) Spain- Canada- British Raj- Australia- New Zealand- South Africa- Mexico- Brazil- Turkey- Hungary- Romania- Greece- Bulgaria- People's Republic of China- Siam (present-day Thailand) - Philippines- Iran- Ethiopia (must be puppeted by Italy)- Sweden- Finland- Norway- Demark- Belgium (wouldn't recommend)- Netherlands (would only recommend if you went Dutch Rijk)- Portugal- Argentina- These are the only countries I am allowing, and they are first come, first serve. What are the rules? Most importantly, we have the rules. 1. All majors (par China and Japan) must stay their original ideology. 2. Japan may only go non-aligned if they change ideology. 3. No disbanding the Allies, Comintern, or the Axis. 4. No randomly spiking world tension, such as Spain justifying war on Portugal in 1936. 5. One country may only send volunteers to one other country at a time. 6. No sending tank volunteers in the Spanish civil war, or the Sino-Japanese war. 7. No sending volunteers to Ethiopia in the Italian-Ethiopian war. 8. No staging a coup d'etat in another country, player or AI controlled. 9. DO NOT SIGN UP FOR A MAJOR IF YOU CAN NOT STAY FOR UP TO 7 HOURS! 10. No deleting your entire army. 11. No glitches or exploits, or you will be immediately banned from the game. 12. You may only release one puppet per year, as it can break the game if done faster. 13. ENG + FRA may NOT deny the Rhineland or the Sudetenland (London Conference). 14. No justifying on nations you don't have cores or claims on, unless through focus until Germany does Danzig or war/ Danzig for Slovakia, or 1940. 15. No releasing nations while at war with someone. 16. Lastly, and most importantly, don't be a douche. This can be a whole lot of fun!

Trotsky is OP, yes. China is always broken. cheating out AI wouldn't be a problem, if the amount of players was good. no div limit just restores the game like it was before waking the tiger. HOI4 is $11 USD on G2A. You're in for Soviets. Link to comment

If a field marshal is controlling an army, the field marshal traits do not apply. They've got a red coloration to them, and say they aren't applied when controlling an army or something. I didn't know if people on SG played HOI4 or not. I'll post it in a HOI4 server to get more players. I will also be removing RT56. You are right that it would make everything op. Just having no div limit +plc would be enough. I can easily get a full 30 players when reaching to a HOI4 discord or two. Also in base game trotsky is a risky strat now and not OP. I will keep you updated. Link to comment
