Honestly i love the spanish civil war just because of how easily ive learned to win it, you just have to secure the 2 northern republican territories as the nationalists and then take supply hubs early on and you can almost battleplan it, it’s ridiculous. The republic united is even more easy, you just have to secure the mountainous basque land in the north and hold there, which distracts vital nationalists troops and then you just have to encircle nationalists in teruel and they are hopeless. For carlists or falangists just do same nationalist strat and then crush the other nationalist state when they rebel, and for the anarchists you get basically all of the republican territory so just crush the rest of the weak republic then grind down the nationalists

[@sunnysky7639]

There is technically a strategic usage for nukes; bombing enemy airports to delete all the planes instantly, or by just spamming them on enemy deathstacks to delete half their equipment and manpower. But the other points do still stand; air superiority is required, and it is a waste of industry. Nuking enemy airports to delete planes happens in multiplayer games but in singleplayer games it'd be far easier to just produce better quality planes than the AI.

[@Gustav_Kuriga]

All you need is local superiority.

What I usually do with planes is add 1 cannon and rest heavy machine guns and as modules is drop tanks and extra fuel tanks and self sealing fuel tanks and if any space left I put in a light MG turret and always put in the best engine. This works against AI pretty well I'm not sure about MP games however

[@midwestern118]

For an air design that gets up 11:1 KDR in all my games is to put cannons on it. I wrote out a whole guide on everything you need but self sealing fuel tanks, drop tanks, and armor plates are GREAT for fighters and keep the engine, cannons, and additional machine guns (if thrust allows it) up to date and you should be golden, for CAS swap out air brakes. The design is expensive BUT the KDR on them is insane

@bitt3rsteel the way to go with air for the moment is stack up as much air attack as you can. Modern fighter? Cannons II, as many as you can, self sealing fuel tanks and drop tanks. A single jet engine should do. But in general, the solution is the most cannons you can on a single engine. No armour on fighters, you need agility. When I went for the achievement as Ethiopia, I had 12 factories on air and I was keeping the entire allied air force at bay, trading somewhere around 13:1 at a certain point. Also, centralized control, ASAP, when you start the war. This is probably going to change with the news dlc, but for the moment, that's your way. And build radar, they do wonders.

26:59 what's wrong with air? it's purely numbers. during my own disastrous playthrough i found out that even if you have the better planes, if enemy has more planes up they will kill more of your planes. do not engage in air combat unless you're at least 1:1 in numbers and then the better stats will get you through. i did not check if terrible planes will still win, but hey, the AI planes are subpar at best anyway

[@Arexsis]

Simple effective fighters: Most modern air frame Highest regualr engine you can afford (You don't need jet engines, make more tanks with the tungsten) 1 2xCannon 2 3 Heavy MG Drop tank 2 armor If you want complete domination, make sure you go left side air doctrine, a light aircraft designer, have static radars, enough planes to see their planes. That's all there really is to it. Having more than your enemy is good for air to air losses too obviously, but not needed. I can fight all of the allies with this design putting up 500-600 vs their 1000+ in france and trade 10 of mine to up to 80 of theirs in some battles.

[@Theover4000]

27:00 your aviation is losing not because of templates, although they should have added cannons instead of machine guns, but this is not so important, mainly they are losing due to the fact that there are many times fewer of them, and at the same time, Soviet aviation managed to gain a lot of experience during the war years and aces, and meanwhile your air wings are at the very minimum level of training, well, plus in that air region you had less controlled land, which also affects the capabilities of aviation, plus if the USSR had already passed the focus on aviation, then it may have had bonuses from national perfume on her. btw still great video, i wish i had this skill
