I Made the BEST Fighters as the USSR in HOI4

[@lukethetrooper3065]

When you queued up 60 dockyards my jaw dropped and I started laughing. Absolutely love it, would probably be fun to see a hyper navy USSR against the allies or sth.

[@thetibbiesshow]

That was the original plan, and I’ll probably still make a vid like that, but I’ll allow myself to puppet Romania and turkey early game to make things less miserable.

[@jollyroyale1590]

It's busted. By 42 you've got plenty of mils so I'll max dockyards on the black sea coast. 50-60 dockyards plus all the naval bonuses is insanely good

[@echo_9835]

Stalin also saw Amongus everywhere. It got a little messy.

[@thetibbiesshow]

Lmaoooooooo

[@metetural9140]

I SAW TUKHACHEVSKY VENT!

[@TheBittersweetFox]

Bruh! This got me so hard! xD

[@brunopereira3572]

I love watching your videos, directly here from Brazil, especially the videos focused on the navy, congratulations

[@ТимоФейк]

You don't want the civil war in Spain to end too quickly because the more it goes on the more exp you get and I guess it increases the chances of Spain becoming your puppet

[@thetibbiesshow]

Fair enough!

[@TheBittersweetFox]

Welp. You called me. Here I am. Placing torpedos on CA is quote: stupid idea. As you know , I am sure (so this is for a potential comment lurkers/new players), torpedos are actually things that kill ships. Thats one of the reasons why nav bombers are OP. So having torpedo attack in your task force is a good idea. But the most cost efficient way is torpedo destroyed, ofc. We call the Lancers here in our HOI4 nerd shool. You will pump them more therefore you will have more TPD Att overall. Love your vids dude! Keep it up) You hooked me with your Turkey vids.

[@fatalwaker9992]

I love your channel keep up man :D

[@pedrodemarco8083]

Hey man, love your videos, keep up the good work🫡🫡🫡

[@Rodyub95]

Will you be trying out the new dlc for the 12 days of Christmas special? Also wouldn't mind a millennial dawn video again, keep up the great content tibbs

[@panpsalt6757]

You need to wait for Spain to do the focus expand soviet aid. They do it mid to late 38 usually. I do not know if your commintern Spain focus is also necessary, but it is a good focus, so I tend to take in anyway

[@RezaStufff]

Hey, questuon. Is this a guide video?

[@salahibrahim5711]

nice video dude

[@NoahSchei]

I used to pray for times like these😭🙏

[@brutalexis486]

Broski I’m not 100% sure but if u add artillery to marines divisions they are loosing all bonuses for naval invasions etc. Double check but I saw video recently about that somewhere

[@frauleinhohenzollern]

Yeah he makes a lot of weird decisions like this. Idk if he's still learning, or if he's aware of this stuff but choosing to make inefficient decisions for a certain reason. I can't decide.

[@thetibbiesshow]

It’s a 15ish% debuff to marines, but people always forget that marines do more than just the initial landings. They also tend to be the first to push and secure land, which artillery helps with.

[@brutalexis486]

Ohh 15% not bad at all then!

[@brutalexis486]

@@frauleinhohenzollern Role-playing I guess haha! I’m trying also many different non-meta strategies lately just for fun :D

[@thetibbiesshow]

@@brutalexis486 this is the only way to play. Build what you want to, build different stuff than everyone else, find what works for you and that you like. It’s a single player game, so playing meta (unless you find that fun) isn’t all that important (or interesting in my opinion)

[@Irgendsoeiner01]

[@muovi2463]

Not taking Karelia and Salla after the Winter war is a crime

[@thetibbiesshow]

I never see a reason. After puppeting them, taking resources, I’m just content.

[@Hoi4withRobin]

Insane Civ Greed Build 😅

[@thetibbiesshow]

Pre Germany dlc, I used to build civs until 1940, so 6ish months later than I did in this vid. There’s people that can get to 450 factories by barb. Me? I can’t, but I respect those that can.

[@christater5540]

Day 300 of me (politely) asking you to play the Vanilla Naval Rework

[@thetibbiesshow]

It’s gonna happen, I swear lmaooo

[@bepsi6204]

would you not be able to release lithuania as a puppet and not call them in?

[@sergeinaty9601]

You can't release occupied nations as puppets if you're playing the Soviet union on historical

[@NoahSchei]

47:06 Ok bro

[@thetibbiesshow]

I’m sorry XD

[@kolkusmaximus6184]

[@Bozothcow]

Roach Russia

[@thetibbiesshow]

As in trash lite tank only Russia or am I misunderstanding?

[@Bozothcow]

Honestly I don't even know for sure, I think it refers to an MP strategy where they just dig in like you did, and then wait for the allies to fix everything for them.

[@Deepwang84]

​​@@thetibbiesshowit's an mp build where you build a Soviet Union that can't really attack but can hold and take tens of millions of casualties. Usually involves lots of trash infantry with heavy tank divisions to stone wall German pushes. You didn't roach because you built air which you can't do if you roach as your army will be too small and you just get rolled. Although no air Russia is pretty common regardless of your build. Basically the build is you holding until the allied players can dday and end the game. It results in very long games that can last until 46 if the axis especially hammer the allies.

[@belabansal3356]

Why do you bring American experts, not many know this but overall British experts do much better

[@Hoi4withRobin]

What is their bonus?

[@adittigupta3541]

​@@Hoi4withRobinproduction efficiency retention lack of resources penalty reduction, research speed increment, production licence cost. While American gets you licence cost and production efficiency cap

[@thetibbiesshow]

Production efficiency cap is very BIG, but with that said, nothing wrong with going for the retention option. Both very viable options imo,

[@Hoi4withRobin]

@@thetibbiesshow Nah, Retention is really the worst of all. If I would rank it its Efficiency Cap 10/10 Efficiency Base 6/10 Efficency Gain 3/10 Efficiency Retention 2/10 10% Efficiency Retention really doesn’t do much if at all. Its a weird calculation but in now scenario does it come even close to give you 10% more efficiency.

[@thetibbiesshow]

I always go concentrated industry so it’s a top two upgrade for me considering I have like 0 retention from research. It really just matters how one plays the game I guess.
