Ultimately, when it comes to military production in general, you want to assign all your factories like so: That is why you are capable of creating and developing a large land army, as well as a challenging Air Force, but unfortunately you do not have enough naval dockyards (only 10) to compete with the british, french, american, and even italian naval production. Do not forget to convert the three non-tank divisions into tanks, because you will need their breakthrough capabilities later on.Īt the start of the game Germany possesses the largest military production capacity out of all the European countries (28 Military Factories to be precise). With the remaining 6 divisions, 3 of which are fully equipped tank regiments, you shall make a naval invasion order from Hamburg directly to Dunkirk and Calais. For the time being I recommend grouping them into one full army and putting them on the border with France, as they will be useful later on to hold the frontline against the French attackers, when we go to war with them. Germany starts off with approximately 30 divisions, 24 of them being full infantry with support companies, which are already trained to the highest possible level. Now let us begin with the actual preparations.

Just to let you know, if you are interested in the guide I wrote about the German empire, be sure to follow the link below to find out how to form the Holy Roman Empire, as well as the European Union.

In Hearts of Iron 4 you may try and see for yourself in the article below or view it on my YouTube channel. In particular, how would the Axis victory reflect on the shape of the political borders of the different countries not only in Europe, but in the world in general. Have you ever thought about what would have happened if instead of the Allies winning the war, the Axis were the ones to proclaim victory?Īt first, it may sound horrifying, as we all have watched movies or at least played computer games (the most famous of them being “Wolfenstein”, in which this exact scenario is portrayed), but it could also be really interesting to know what would the world look like in such a different universe.
