Operations are also normally done through the battleplanner, with which you draw offensives or falback lines and the AI takes care of the nitty-gritty (though a little intervention is often required to finish off pockets).Īlso, buying Hearts of Iron IV also gets you the amazing Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg mod, the very promising upcoming The New Order Last Days Of Europe (the basic premise is the Axis won WWII, but Reality Ensues and the 60s are a time of incredible chaos), Fuhrerreich (double-blind what-if of Kaiserreich (that is to say, it is 'what if the Entente won the WWI from the perspective of a universe where they lost WWI), Red Flood (what if the Entente won, but very differently and basically by dragging out the war until Germany succumbs to revolution and Germany and Russia wind up flipped as to who is fascist and who is commie) as well as the less amazing but potentially fun Millennium Dawn, Modern Day 4, Apres Moi Le Deluge, Ante Rebellum, and much much more. It's less about single army or stack position and more about production, supply, and entire fronts.
