Have to agree, the French focuss tree is one if not the best in game, simple on point yet still has enough complexity to give you plenty of replay value.

[@nenesh66]

You can also release Algeria as pupet in the begining of the game. They will go down the basic focus tree and get factory. And when you core them, you will get free factory :).

[@ludovicmachet1148]

The core focus tree actally annex it ! Its why so broken to release algeria !

[@stresseddictator1849]

Didnt thinked of that

I fucking love me some long videos from the goat FeedbackGaming Please please keep this up as much as you can, don't pressure yourself though what matters is if you actually like it so don't force yourself

[@s0lsticefr4]

I've played France quite a lot and there are some tips I'd like to share with whoever is reading this: -Planes are really good against Germany and they're rather cheap for France since you already have the ressources to make them, later you can make CAS which is really good if you battleplan. -You can release Djibouti to not have the Italians take it, this will also give an airport for the UK to use or for you to use with the tactical bombers you start the game with. -You can delay Laissez-Faire until you are already researching the 1937 industry tech, this will give you the 150% boost for the 1939 industry tech which is way better. -You can hold Belgium against the Germans, as it's mostly forest which are decent for holding, just put your units on the right tiles otherwise you'll get beaten. -You can use submarines to raid the Red Sea to help the UK to clear Ethiopia since the Italian will suffer supply issues. Also I made a mod called "France Balance of Power" if you're a bit bored of vanilla hoi4 France.

I love these long format vids. Just play and enjoy it your way. Love to see how you think it through while enjoying it. It makes the game fun

Bro drops an hour video a day🤣 I respect it!

[@BrownsheepBF]

As far as the economic surplus goes, it works based off the BASE production. For example, the factory that you showed being built at 08:42 had a base build speed per day of 75 points. You then had the modifiers for your economy laws, your trade laws and your infrastructure level. Then the economic surplus was added AFTER that was calculated. In this case it was 37 extra points per day on top of the 170 points you were getting from just the factories or about a 20% boost to your construction speed. Or to put it in flat terms, it was giving you the equivalent of 3 extra factories.

[@featherlilly07]

I usually don't find many HOI4 videos interesting but I genuinely enjoy your way of playing and recording where you explain what you're doing rather than just "this is what happened after I did everything lol" -- it makes me feel like I'm genuinely watching a person play, not a youtuber. It's very comforting for my rough mornings. Cheers, keep it up

[@brok8085]

French union is the most op focus in french focus tree. It gives you a chance to core your colonies and if they refuse, they dont become independent. Its even better as little entene france, because you can get the guest workers to fix the full employment.

[@markwalshopoulos]

Actually losing Corsica can be a good thing because it allows the US to do lend lease even though it takes its sweet time of France hasn't capitulated, but it does fit into the 'more than 0% towards capitulation of a major democratic country' requirement that the US has for passing Lend Lease

[@PotatosLoveLettuce]

A different France video you made a few years ago really helped me learn the game by following along when i was new to the game. Glad to see you making these long form videos! Like you said later guaranteeing Poland is a nice way to get around go with Britian.

[@andyblondyn1898]

I do apologise - your comment about not minmaxing is also for me, as I did mention that in one of previous videos. Thank you for that! :) Have a nice day and weekend.

[@torber5655]

These "Minmaxing country x" videos are amazing. Super helful for learning how to play certain nations and just fun to watch as well.

Bro pumping out prime content multiple days in a row? holy shit

[@donovanmccain]

Do you think Mass Assault and some of the other ideas shared here would apply to Non-Aligned France as well?

[@FeedbackGaming]

Be no different

[@sirnooblet2793]

you can minmax more by doing france leads but guaranteeing Poland, allowing you to join the allies when needed but still giving you a political power boost

[@boop7441]

i think i also like France's focus tree, fairly small, but straightforward and nice. What i DONT like though, is that france has an achievement where you have to wait until 1948 with a focus tree thats TINY. Paradox made the france focus tree tiny because surviving the germans is pretty much most of the french campaign, and recognize the game is pretty much done with france by 1941/42 and then made the achievement 6 years of painful afk.

[@featherlilly07]

This video's worth two comments. I genuinely get overwhelmed in strategy games since I have attention problems, but you helped me understand the UI and game better so I can play how I want. :)

Don’t worry about the dyslexia, I’m sure most people don’t mind and have understanding for the fact it can be a struggle for you, I do at least. As someone with a small speech impediment I also often get unwanted feedback about the way I talk, don’t let them get to you. Love all the work you do, hope the covid gets better soon!

[@quentintin1]

for the French African front, what i do rather than have a forward port/hub, is use what is already there and just put a couple holding divisions on small lvl 1 or 2 forts between the sea and the Tunisian lakes (thus making the Mareth line, which was a thing and built up before the game started), then set up an amphibious invasion on Tripoli that way the Italians push forward into Tunisia, they hit my defence troops while dying to supply, then capturing Tripoli kills the rest of the little supply they have, and being supplied on either side, i can crush their divisions in the middle as for the invest in colonies stuff, the real worth is if you wait to do all of them before doing the focus that gives them mils (adds 2 for every state invested in, so up to 10 free mils), also Algeria benefits twice from the focus, getting up 4 free civs (2 under "Industrial Expansion" and 2 under "Colonial Industry", i don't believe they get twice the mils tho), also i believe doing the colonial investment focuses increase your chances of getting a yes vote when doing the French Union, along maxing compliance and infrastructure (afaik it's based on how built up the colonies are, so maxing factories also helps, there's a focus in the naval branch that gives you 4 shipyards in colony states)

With the front line bug near the end, if you ctrl right click you select the units assigned to that order.

[@Tallfellow666]

I'm really enjoying these longer video's where you try new things and division templates. So i would love to see more of them!

[@Jansay34]

I like these kind of videos.

[@sgtburden8482]

I'm surprised you didn't do the focus to intervene in the spanish civil war! It's an easy way to farm a lot of early XP for france, here's how 1) Ban commies via focus 2) Do intervention in spain focus 3) Once communism popularity is 0 (or close enough to), click two decisions to intervene in spain to boost your war support by a ton 4) A new decision will pop up to join the war on the republican side, click it, you're now at war 5) Profit! Easy army and air xp! As an added bonus, once the civil war is over, you can annex a few regions in spain, I usually aim for those rich in tungsten The only downside is that your stability is at 0% as long as you're in the war... but with that high war support you can do war economy crazy fast if you bank some PP! It's almost cheesy how stronger you become just by doing those 2 focuses

Mad underated

[@glauberglousger956]

To be fair, if you do lose, you can regain your focus tree (and do most focuses again, though whether it's worth it by then is debatable)

[@rdbs5687]

These videos are fantastic for helping new players, will you be doing these for minor nations too? I would love to learn how to play with limited manpower and industry

Returning viewer, as someone who got overwhelmed by the vampire-like DLC strategy that Paradox inflicts on people I stepped away from great games like HOI4, videos like this are the best for seeing the current state of the game!

[@Storiedfrog9]

What I usually do is make arty, make IE, guns and AA, add arty and engineers to a division and I go with the good old 9-3, if you dont have enought arty just go with 9 infantry and engineers for more entrenchment, also don go for the expand the maginot, build those forts manually (yes it sounds crazy but you can have them before the war starts) even on the italian border, yes im crazy but I managed to conquer all europe, form the EU and then turn fascist and conquered the whole world, I dont recommend that las part

Lore of No One Is Talking About HOW OP Mass Assault FRANCE momentum 100

[@PESTREAM]

Great video! Best France defence ive seen in some time. 1 question - wouldnt you preferer a tank recon support this late into war? Armor was ur que in that one And armored cars really suck😅

[@s0lsticefr4]

Armored car recon does give you the most amount of recon Tank recon doesn't give you a lot of armor and Germany with support AA will still fully pierce you so there is no point, also it costs fuel unlike armored cars.

[@Marmamartha]

I do think that without the newest DLC (which I dont have) this minmax guide is completely opposite of what you should actually do.
