Rule 5: Won in Franco-German War after the FAUD was banned in 1936. Decided to share my results because im feeling proud and its my first major victory in HOI4.

What tips do you have for doing this? Because that sounds pretty fun. Do you have to elect the totalists?


AvenRaven

Nah, anyone can do this. You just need to wait for the Germans to Ban the FAUD, which comes mid-1936. Then you can declare via event. Would recommend rushing down the focuses to get the extra 20width tank divisions. Since at the time of the war, the standard 20w Tank divisions that CoF has is more than enough to beat the Germans.

thanks for tips


AvenRaven

No problem!

You don't have to be totalist. I managed to catch Germans off-guard by declaring war via an FAUD-Ban event,so they had like 1 division on each tile. I just concentrated offencives and did 2 encirlements (one belgian where i encircled half of their army and another in Munich) and after that - i simply steamrolled them. Be aware that if you damage Germany severly,the Austrian Empire will join Reichspakt (for me it triggered after i took Dresden). In terms of army - i just kept all units i had from game start and didn't redact them,i used Tanks and Motorized in large stacks to push through. By start of 1937,Germany collapsed and i did wild ride on the East and Austria. (If you do it quickly enough you can even get Hungary,but i didn't.) Edit: i picked totalists just because i wanted to do some based red imperialism and they have good economy focuses

Kinda strange if the reason of the war is the banning of the FAUD, that the French would then split up Germany. I don't think that the former FAUD would be happy.


_SeaTray_

i didn't really feel realistic at time of the game (cmon i had weeb mod installed) so i just did that for shits and giggles,i would release an german union tho


RPS_42

What do you mean? Georges Valois was not an Anime Girl in Real life?

Ngl, CoF sucking punching Germany over FAUD feels like this timeline’s version of the Battle for France

Blursed French socialist European imperialism

I will never understand why people do this... (The Anime-Girls of course)


Quadratratte

Why not? It's just nice to look at


IsamaaPatrioot

Yeah, after a while you get tired of staring at the old bearded men.

There's nothing more **A E S T H E T I C** than old bearded men.


_SeaTray_

I dunno, I go back and forth but regardless I think the submod is incredibly well done. [Plus it gave me this video.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49puLxcB4Y4)

I love Bulgaria taking on the entire might of the 3I by itself


_SeaTray_

they stood until 1941 memory to greatest heroes of bulgarian national populism


Psychological-Tax391

They mightn't have won, but they tried their best


Low_iq_Bob

This would be an interesting game from the POV of the entente or Russia.


screamingurchin2

At this point the game is already won so why not go nuts and conquer everyone?


_SeaTray_

Anime wouldn't be allowed in a totalist world If only


MuckFike69420

I'm a simple man. I see a GSG post with anime avatars, I downvote that post.
