Just an update on the Multi Role template, everyone: 1. Swap the places of the rocket rails and HMG so the rocket rails come first. This will classify the plane as CAS, which gives +20% agility when you're on the battlefield support doctrine. 2. The 650K range is a tad bit short, so you can swap the armor plate with extra range modules/drop tanks (whatever the weight allows)

This is such a great channel i don't know how this hasn't become popular.

[@balkan-cowboy]

me being inconsistent mainly, but I work seasonally. lol. Will try to keep it up this summer

[@kommissarvalkyre2054]

Thank you, always nice to learn things.

[@balkan-cowboy]

My pleasure!

[@veekaste]

Great vid and research done!

[@_-Wade-_]

Multi-role on ground attack is still a sick trick for efficiency.

[@mitmatthews8227]

Good content, keep it up

[@joaomarques6109]

Good Work.

[@Ke1nfa]

Will you do a navy guide soon? Btw thx for this guide

[@balkan-cowboy]

I did do a 30 min naval tier list for the majors, I'll do a part 2 on that one at some point. Unfortunately people don't seem that interested in the topic compared to other parts of the game, so it has to remain secondary for me as I have limited time to produce. Maybe I'll make smaller videos with instructions on navy designs/philosophy

[@valdas420]

thanks

[@balkan-cowboy]

thank you for subscribing

[@gforce95vn]

Here's the dilemma I have with "meta" fighters, there's little to no definitive guide on 1936-1939 air production. I feel like preparations made in those three years have more of an impact that making meta fighters from 1940 onwards where the game likely "ends" in 1940 via snowballing effect. Personally I've developed my own personal meta as to convert some 480 interwar tactical bombers GER has at the start of the game to heavy fighters with 4 light MGs and 4 light MG turrets.

[@balkan-cowboy]

That's a valid point and a good idea. I've considered it before I started this vid but then got so involved with testing/production that it slipped my mind. I will see if I can add any value in future videos, tho. Thanks for your input!

[@brexit_good9604]

ap bomb locks on cas are the best naval bombers for damage output but you cant fit extra range on so maybe only for carriers and not asw

[@balkan-cowboy]

I thought so, too. But the 1940 torpedo module gives 17 naval attack. Also, if you notice, if you try to put AP bomb locks + torpedo, the game tells you that you can only bomb with the most powerful module, making AP bomb locks kinda useless. Best to use small/heavy bomb locks for that 8 ground attack per module, which is more than AP bomb locks.

[@arthurrelke]

ap bombs have higher targeting, meaning that in a CV battle, the planes that hit are better than the miss with higher damage, think it as DPS stat.

[@user-dv6bi3mn9q]

I cant make these fighter os something else because of the weight or trust why ?

[@balkan-cowboy]

Shouldn't be the case, if the weight and thrust is equal you can use the plane. Maybe you're trying to build these on a light carrier airframe? They are heavier so it can mess up things

[@user-dv6bi3mn9q]

​@@balkan-cowboy Maybe im stupid i give you an example the improved small fighter with 3 heavy guns 1 engine lv 3 and two armor plates i habe 26 weight and you only 24 why ? I get 4 weight for the armer plates 15 for the heavy machine guns and seven for the improved smalltalk airframe

[@user-dv6bi3mn9q]

Smalltalk 😅😅 autocorrectur

[@user-dv6bi3mn9q]

Completly my fault i forget that i played the 56 and the airframes their has other stats than in vanilla sry bro keep up the Videos

[@balkan-cowboy]

Ooh, okay, a mod was the reason. Thanks for letting me know

[@mikemandalorian9226]

10:30 I don't understand, italy has what? Btw, italy air guide when? :)

[@balkan-cowboy]

Italy has Fiat aviazione as MIO, which gives 60% range bonus to medium frames along other stuff. This is why it's better to let them create medium planes and focus on light ones as Germany. Italy is next on the list, so you're reading my mind!

[@GnaedigerJupp]

A turrent on a fighter is meta. Just paradox things
