If you play your cards right, you can overcome its weaknesses and become one of the greatest nations the world has ever seen. This will help you get green air when you attack Poland, the Low Countries, and France. France's combat strength in the Second World War may have a poor reputation, but with this Hearts of Iron IV guide, you will turn France into the uncontested hegemon of Europe.
#Hearts of iron 4 germany guide upgrade
You can upgrade the Fighters 1's to 5 agility + 1 range quite quickly with the Spanish Civil War Air Xp.
This super-charges your Civ and Mil factory count.īonus tip #2: Try starting with 12 factories on Fighter 1's, and keep producing with 12 until Fighter 2's, and then go to 30 factories on Fighter 2's (ideally by mid 1939). Good luck.īonus tip: Get 1 Collab gov't in Poland and 2 Collab govt's in France, for the extra production. Push along the top of France, right across to the northwest coast. Line up on French border, and again get the max planning bonus before attacking. Make sure you have max planning bonus before declaring. I like to get the 1940 fighter by early 1939, and then dump 500 air xp into this new fighter design. Try to get 5 SP researched (down to Regimental Combat Teams) before attacking Netherlands. Have good progress into Superior Firepower Doctrine with Integrated (rt side). Specifically for breaking through the Netherlands & Belgium, and then France: Then line up on north Belgium border, get max planning bonus, invite Italy, and attack. I'd make sure I have lot's of upgraded fighters. Waiting till mid to late 1940 makes it harder. Then attack the low countries & France early (early to mid 1939). I actually prefer 10/0 with some medium tank divisions, as less arty means more tanks you can build. Add Recon and Logistics after you have lots of Support Equipment.ġ0/0 is also fine with support companies. That's 7 infantry and 2 artillery, and for support companies maybe start with Artillery and Engineers. The goal is to get some army and air xp, and maybe level up a general or two.Īnd lastly, make sure you design a good army template. Send army and air volunteers (button at top right) to Fascist Spain and Japan & Manchuko. Make sure you are building some army units so you have the army population to Anchluss and Sudetenland.
If you're going for a big airforce, build more Oil Refineries for the Rubber, which you'll need when you goto war and your Rubber imports are cut-off. After that build some Oil Refineries, and then Military Factories. Then whatever you like.īuild Civilian Factories until late 1937, in higher infrastructure provinces first. Send Japan an attache, and then go War Economy.Īfter Rhineland, go Four Year Plan -> Autarky -> Hermann Goring-Werke -> Kdf-Wagen -> Extra Research Slot. Have 250 pp on hand for Jwhen Japan attacks China. Then get the Four Year Plan Advisor (Hjalmar Schacht) who gives a Civ & Infrastructure +10% speed boost. The first Advisor is Martin Bormann, Silent Workhorse, for the +15% to PP boost right off the bat.
Go Rhineland focus at the start for the Political Power.
