[@maxleb228]

The thing is that when you dissolve Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina into separate countries they will not do industry focuses until 1939, that’s how they’re programmed to do. But if you do a united Croatia and united Bosnia and Herzegovina they will do industry focuses immediately

[@ImColombiaa_]

a few things: puppeting hungary and bulgaria still works, and you can gain all of their cores. also, splitting bosnia and croatia makes them less likely to choose industrial focuses earlier, however in the long term, it's usually better to

[@thinkandgame3627]

don't forget getting Romania as Transilvania gets cores on a lot of land (plus fun achievement)

[@AstroPhis]

Plus if Hungary went Habsburg - you'd potentially have cored Austria and Czechoslovakia as well

@@thinkandgame3627 yeah that too but id assume thats obvious

[@benis3551]

If you do the dissolve foci you want a subcountry with at least two sectors or else the industry focuses will be done last. If the subcountry has at least two it will be doing industry very quickly.

[@notsoretrojakko4517]

Been watching all your Hoi4 videos and just love that your also a Grand Battleplan enjoyer, if you want to be extra spicy with entrenchment, then build infantry tanks with Dozer Blades, (Unlocked with Level 2 Engineers) these blades stack, meaning every different tank model that's in a division, it increases the entrenchment by 1, so if you have Light Tank Recon, Flame Tank Support, Self Propelled Guns, Self Propelled Anti Air, and even Base Tanks, that's 5 or more extra entrenchment level, this also stacks with Engineers. Go even further with Grand Battleplan, Elevated Engineer Corps, Static Warfare, and if you have a Defensive Field Marshal, you can make him an Entrenchment Specialist, which also stacks with all of the above. Quite easy to get over 100% entrenchment, becoming an absolutely insane wall, can even be done without air support thanks to the AA support.

[@grzybek901]

I play yugoslavia a lot and just wanted to tell everyone that the puppets always go down the same parts of the focus tree for example: slovenia will always go down industrial path and dalmacia will always go down the navy path.

[@jit_honzzaa3409]

@Chaotic Florius they didnt build industry becouse if the country only has one state then the indrustry tree will be the last one to be picked, if the country has 2 and more states they will prioritise the industry tree

[@swamperino]

Adding to this, single state countries are hardcoded to wait until 1939 to take industry focuses. That's why you release a united Bosnia.

[@samgilbert5973]

Helpful tip about the hoi4 ai we have found if you keep the nation's from Yugoslavia together like Croatia they have higher likely hood to their industry focus but if you split them they tend to them a lot later

[@samgilbert5973]

It like 1939 to 1941 it pretty big difference

[@digitallee5006]

I don't remember the details, but 1 state nations are indeed hard coded to avoid the industry focuses for as long as possible. They will eventually complete the industry focuses, but it may be 2-3 in-game years before the 1-state nations complete industry focuses.

Just have to say this: I am currently trying to follow your guide and it's funny: I am at March 1939 and almost every puppet just started the industrial effort focus (except slovenia who have done all theirs). Almost feels like this is baked into the code :)

[@wojtekpolska1013]

one of your puppets is transylvania, which actually has a lot of territories in romania, i think that if you give transylvania these territories and then annex it trough the focus u can core that tho it would be a bit hard to do

[@ZeDoktor-wm6kf]

A quick thing to add for when you desolve your nation is that the ai takes the industrial path if it has more than one state. Case in point, Slovenia having 3 states went down the industrial path while divided Croatia having one state went down the naval tree.

Hey Florius, the issue with the puppet not doing industry focuses is because you need to do the focus that releases croatia for example as one nation, not two if I remember Great video btw 💪

The single state puppets will do them after 1939

[@Kortifexiii]

I think the Reunite the Kingdom focus also gives cores on Bulgaria if you have them as a puppet. I remember this happening in NSB

Just at tip for your space marine tank design is that you only need 4 speed because that is the max speed of infantry

[@Ananas-280]

The Yugoslavian front is so massively underrated in history, everyone talks about the eastern front and the Landing on Normandy But the resistance and fight the Yugoslavians put against us Germany (for the most part) is unbelievable I would say they were the best preforming compared to how much they were supported, the initial invasion put very small numbers on both the axis and Yugoslavia, but when Croatia was put on control of the region the numbers started getting so high due to guerilla fighting, ethnic cleansing and executions committed by the Ustasha, they were so horrible and went too far even nazi Commanders and Wehrmacht generals protested their actions and told them they were going too far, eventually Yugoslavia suffered half a million military deaths alone, more than what the french and British suffered even with accounting their subjects and colonies and as well as the USA

[@JackMarcuson]

just in the initial war against Yugoslavia (April War) the nazis documented that they captured over 300k yugoslavian soldiers as prisoners of war so in total the military deaths number is way higher than people normally think.

[@2icharlie]

yeah when i played as a divided yugo i just edited the generic focus tree, made the industry muuuch higher priority for ai. i preferred it that way just cause its the order anyone would do, even if its spammy for building slots

I've found out that your puppets will do industry focuses first if they have more that one state otherwise they will do research focuses first

[@horrigan495]

It was in one of the previous patch notes, that pupets will be very less likely to do industrial focuses as 1st things as it was broken as fk for some countries... not sure which one tho, but I think perhaps Italy and Ethiopia? Dont know, still you would need to wait for like a year or two for them to pickup industrial focuses for sure

[@Jukanella]

Thats real Balkan politics. Most historical playthrough pf yours

[@jacksonjguyguadagnino5792]

If I were you, I would have let the Banovinas live throughout the war until the Allies started winning. Why? a) More time for them to finally start working on their industry focuses b) the Axis declares war on you, Serbia - not your semi-independent Banovinas, meaning they can only attack you through Romania and Bulgaria unless you call your puppets in But I'm not good at the game so idk if my strat would actually be any better than reuniting for the industry before the war tbh

Hey i have a suggestion if you open to them, There is a mod called "better mechanics: frontline" and in the description of it there is also 4 additional mods...they're all small in size and they don't give any buffs to ai or debuffs to players but when i tried them they make the ai significantly better at managing and deploying troops and airforce without intervening in the gameplay or focuses tree or anything at all just make the ai plays better Ever since i played the mod i can't play without it because vanilla ai is just so stupid and easy but seems not many people know about it and not a single content creator has gave it a chance even though they gave "expert ai" mod a chance Idk if its just me being fed up with vanilla ai or the mods are actually good so since you're a pretty much expert in hoi4 i would love if you gave it a chance even in your private time and see if its good and give us your honest opinion on the mod Incredible work as always mate, love your content 🤍

[@Dante-mr3rz]

You can also go down brown ideology, release everyone except Vojvodina and Banat, take reinforce old alliance and axis interest. After the civil war you can pick up allied one. You get insane stability and pp gain.

[@feldspar1496]

You still get cores on pulpets when uniting but only balkans states (before it was any state of countries you had puppeted) also I think one province ciuntries will only do industry after like 1939 now

[@zarbi64]

In fact, the more pupper option is a bait as they chose industrial focuses in like 1939, it'es better to go the single puppet way

Fun fact: you can also core all Transilvania as Yugoslavia if you have entire Transilvania as puppet and done this focus tree.

[@leolinguini260]

Your puppets will pick a path when released and stick to it for a significant amount of time, before moving on. Its not entirely random. Slovenia who is released 1st always seems to go industry, then the rest follow a pattern based on the order and number of puppets released. Reuniting the kingdom is worth delaying untill after you have a bulgarian and hungarian puppet. Depending on what they own, you can get alot of cores.
