These commie memes man. Soviet union lost 12x the amount of men in some battles. That's putting Pyrrhus to shame.

RoamingEast
The Maginot line did exactly what it was built to do.
Cereaza
Force the Germans to invade Belgium... again?
RackhamTheRed
yes and no. by the time the attack happend it was somewhat outdated. the germans actually attacked and punched through it on some points
RoamingEast
kinda false, they punched through in the lighly defended Belgian areas, where the Maginot Line was only token. The Germans only started..
RoamingEast
taking other positions after France had already fallen. The entire point was to force Germany a single axis of advance, through belgium...
RoamingEast
which it did perfectly. That frances' BELGIAN defense strategy was garbage is another issue entirely.
MNThaler
The opposing Siegfried line cost 140000 men in American casualties alone, so I think taking Maginot from the front was not really an option.
RackhamTheRed
I didn't mean outdated in terms of having a strong defense position, but in terms of weapon and armor tech. Even during the 6y of ww2 stuff
RackhamTheRed
that was well suited at the start was mostly outdated by 45
MNThaler
Oh yeah, agreed.

Was #16 smoking a cigarette through a pipe?
RatoMolhado
Tito does as Tito wants.
Hutchy01
I think he's using a holder but it's possible Tito's taking a leaf out of Stalin's book and is putting a cig in his pipe
Ruhig
It's that kind of thinking that kept him one step ahead of those assassins.
matchstickmetropolis
Ruhig
He's so far outside the box they don't even know where to look.
Hutchy01
To be fair those assassins were coming from the mind that brought you an ice axe in Mexico, they were probably using katana in Croatia.
Ruhig
Why do you think there's no ice in Mexico anymore? Yeah. Those ice axes killed it all. You're welcome.

Ehh sometimes I hold 'fast travel' down for too long and run into a huge army I didn't want to fight.
AsAHistorian
I love CK2 and EU4, but I'm hesitant about HOI. What's it like? In what ways is it different from EU?
MNThaler
Having played all of those a lot, I think HOI4 is the weakest of them. Rather simple game in the end.
PikachusThug
HOI4 is definitely the best war strategy game out right now. Hard to explain in 140 but it's awesome and in depth
catapulter
No fuel operation costs for vehicles.
canadarox28
It's very different from both. It's a bit faster paced with much more emphasis on micromanagement than macro, and the political/diplo layer
canadarox28
Is practically nonexistent. It's still a lot of fun, but I recommend watching a game on youtube first
canadarox28
*much faster paced, like 8 hour games vs EU's 30ish
catapulter
You finish EU games in 30 hours?! i finish hoi4 games in 30...
canadarox28
I admit I pulled the number out of the air, but I usually play on speed 5, then drop to 2 to make a decision. HOI4 is definitely 8 h though

So... the Roman Empire has nothing to do with Rome (or today's Rome)?
kungfufil
The Holy Roman Empire was neither holy, roman, nor an empire.
RackhamTheRed
the pope was in rome. and they considered themselfe as a kind of heir to the late (christian) roman empire
tonchandailvert
RackhamTheRed
you were asking about #5, right?
tonchandailvert
yes
RackhamTheRed
afaik it's called "holy roman empire" in english but it's actuall german name translates aprox. to "holy roman empire of german nations"

Also, while Lenin and Stalin rocked it and Mao didn't have that beard, did communists not allow shaving kits? Marx&Engels look homeless?
