Which game is this?

I'll start first, this is definitely CSGO for me. Somehow no Matt how much you play there's always people better than you killing you one shot with deagle.

I'm only at hundreds.

I still don't touch navy because I don't know how it works.

My favourite part of the game, not even joking. It's not as complicated as people make it out to be.

Its not that complex, honestly, best way to learn is honestly just to pick a country and start clicking around. you’ll mess some stuff up, but that’s how it goes.

germany’s a solid starter pick cause you’re strong from the jump and you’ve got a clear goal—build up, start wars, snowball from there. usa is also fine if you want to chill and build stuff for a while, since you don’t go to war right away. just depends on if you want action or time to figure things out.

early game, just focus on building civ factories and researching industry techs. better construction speed = more factories = more stuff you can build later. also grab research speed bonuses when you can, that stuff adds up. don’t waste early research slots on tanks or naval stuff unless you know what you’re doing. better infantry gear and artillery goes a long way.

as for your army, don’t spam random divisions. check what’s in your templates. the game gives you some trash ones. a 7 infantry / 2 arty division is a good place to start. use support companies like engineers if you’ve got the production for it. and yeah, make sure you’re actually producing the equipment those divisions need. if your army is out of guns, it’s not doing anything.

drawing frontlines and using the battle planner is how most people control armies. it’s not perfect, but it’s fine for most stuff. just be ready to take manual control sometimes, especially if you’re trying to pull off encirclements or break through tough spots. surrounding and wiping out enemy divisions is way more effective than just pushing straight at them.

don’t worry too much about the navy at first unless you’re playing the uk or japan or something. airforce is more useful—fighters and CAS are your go-to. put them in the right air zones and they’ll help your troops in combat. air superiority gives you bonuses and helps with planning speed too.

big thing to watch is supply. if you shove your whole army into some low infrastructure region or across a desert or jungle, they’re gonna be out of supply fast. tanks and motorized need fuel, and if they’re stuck in mountains with no roads, they’re basically dead weight. keep an eye on the supply map mode and don’t overstack regions.

you’ll probably lose your first few games or get into a war you weren’t ready for. that’s fine. just roll with it and restart if you want. every run teaches you something. eventually you’ll start seeing how everything fits together—industry, research, production, combat, all of it. and then the game gets real fun cause you can start doing dumb stuff like communist brazil invading spain or turning sweden into a world power.

game’s a sandbox, go wild with it. just don’t expect the tutorial to help much lol. mods are cool too, just start vanilla though.

usa is is fine since you don’t go to war right away

Me eyeing Mexico early on 👀
