[@jar-jarnotbinks7685]

There's a decision to disband irregular or form irregular. These are awful troops you CAN disband with the decision window. It has conditions tho, I can't remember on the top of my head, but I know you can do that pretty soon after the ethiopian war is dealt with swiftly. The other "un-disbandable" unit is the one with the cap, which, has a 12/12 cap (which can be expanded), and they are not bad troop to garrison in ports anyway, so might as well keep them and do that. Russia also has those NKVD troops that can't be disbanded right off the bat, but can later with the according focus, for exemple.

I've done the democratic monarchy before once, just to try if I could get a communist Roman Empire. It worked, but the progress towards 70% communist support for the civil was very slow and painful without access to the default decisions. Also it was absolutely not worth it. Paradox does not want you to do it. Once the civil war triggers, you do become communist and keep the focus tree, but all your left advisors go to the other side which can go either democratic or also communist.

I’ve seen the joke so many times that now I wanted to clarify it. The shitty cavalry-tank division was not an actual tank division to begin with. Its name is “divisione celere” which literally means “fast division”. Italian tank divisions will come later, and will be much more similar (at least theoretically) to the other majors ones

Paradox needs to add an event that, in case of enemies landing on the japanese home islands, triggers a spawning of a ton of green pure infantry divisions & some experienced mixed unit divisions to simulate the whole Operation Downfall problem. "" While the geography of Japan was known, the U.S. military planners had to estimate the defending forces that they would face. Based on intelligence available early in 1945, their assumptions included the following:[13] "That operations in this area will be opposed not only by the available organized military forces of the Empire, but also by a fanatically hostile population." "That approximately three (3) hostile divisions will be disposed in Southern Kyushu and an additional three (3) in Northern Kyushu at initiation of the Olympic operation." "That total hostile forces committed against Kyushu operations will not exceed eight (8) to ten (10) divisions and that this level will be speedily attained." "That approximately twenty-one (21) hostile divisions, including depot divisions, will be on Honshu at the initiation of [Coronet] and that fourteen (14) of these divisions may be employed in the Kanto Plain area."

In RT56 the Mare Nostrum focus lets you justify as democratic at 100% world tension, I thought that's a vanilla feature and Paradox actually trying to make democracies fun to play. Apparently not, it's a mod feature.

[@wallachia4797]

@@glauberglousger956 There's no real reason to play vanilla hoi4 since we have RT56. I think even Paradox realizes this, hence pretty much half their yearly DLCs are focustrees and features that have been in RT56 for years which they shamelessly copy without giving credits to the community.
