Though you’ll learn soon enough about my own project, I’ll share some of works of talented modders I’ve drawn inspiration from with some slick National Focus mods of their own. Admittedly, it’s my own dabbling in working on a HOI4 mod that’s been distracting me from writing articles as often as I should. Not all is lost, however, as Paradox has armed its community well, leaving the modders to write their own history. Each country had its own unique strengths and weaknesses geographically, sure I favored mountaineers, light tanks, and mechanized infantry in Greece, while I tried to bolster Latvia’s political influence and defensiveness to hold back the Red tide, leveraging what support I could from my neighbors.Īnd while countries like Germany, the UK, France, and Japan have their own specialized National Focus trees, the little guys were left again to fend for themselves, equipped with the same generic template.
While I got the challenge I was looking for, managing trade agreements and what little resources I had in comparison to the main belligerents, I found myself left wanting. In my first few games, I tried my hand as Brazil, Greece, and Latvia relatively small players (if at all) in the global turmoil of the mid-20th century. But having kicked numerous hindquarters as all five major powers, I needed a new challenge. Smelling strongly of Axis & Allies - the family-friendly Hasbro game pitting five friends in total war as Germany, America, the United Kingdom, Japan, and the USSR - HOI4 had me swoonin’ from the get-go. As a huge fan of World War II history and the strategy genre, I can’t get enough of games like these. If you haven’t gotten the chance to try Hearts of Iron IV out yet, I suggest you fix that.
