You’ve only got 5k manpower. You’ll definitely lose several hundred thousand in that war. Your manpower is probably all locked up in occupying Europe

He should use Indian manpower for garrisons.

Imagine losing a war to white supremacist nazis only to get occupied by indians

The French weren't nazi level racist (more white supremacist at the time), but they did use African colonial troops in German occupation post WW1.

Difference between Nazism and Mosley Fascism, Nazis were into the Nordicist shit, Fascism is just (a comparative just) ultra nationalism, mosley wasn't a Nordicist

I would recommend trying to get the imperial fed for cores on India to fix manpower, and then you can also get eu for the industry of Europe (Note: if you invade USA and annex it you can form North American Dominion, and then get cores on all of the usa and Canada through imperial fed)

CekretOne•

Do you really get cores on India? Last time I did it I didn’t get any.

You can't get cores on India even if it accepts to join the imperial federation.

albl1122•

no, neither on South Africa,

17
DabbingDanny•

You get cores on South Africa

59
albl1122•

might be Malaya then. I just vaguely remember that India and one more doesn't give you cores.

26
KimSydneyRose•

You're both right, and both wrong.

South African cores depend on what focuses South Africa takes.

19
FondantQuietResearch Scientist•

You get cores on the *coastal states of South Africa, iirc

11
Phianhcr123•

Yes, but focus on annexing italy, and the US into Canada to turn them into North American dominion and finish the imperial conference. Once you become The Empire, you can form EU in the process and gain practically unlimited manpower and industry. Just use that the curb stomp them.

I thought you could only be the EU if you were democratic? He's fascist.

Fascist UK is the only possible exception to form EU

The more you know. Thanks:)

By the way, the reason is because Mosley was in favour of European unity.

41

Yeah fascist UK can core the British Isles, + Canada, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa + USA + France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Luxembourg and Netherlands. One of the best countries for a world conquest

DiavloLover2986General of the Army•

As long as you have airpower, you'll be fine. Just get your war support and manpower up

42
Kayon_the_blind•

If ur playing as facist uk you can reform eu after doing the federation

10
LapisGod101•

If you annex your italian puppet you can form the EU, that should give you plenty of manpower

Edit: NEVERMIND WHY THE FUCK IS THE SOVIET UNION IN CORSICA

They also have the East Indies and Vietnam, plus some other random spots in Africa.

MeatySausageMan•

I thought you can only form the EU as a democratic nation.

squashed_hariboGeneral of the Army•

no it can be formed by fascist uk because mosely

I definitely don't play enough uk

LetsDoTheDodo•

If I had a nickel every time there was a “(exception to normal fascism) as Fascist UK because Mosely,”

​

I mean, it’s only around 10 cents, but that’s still a lot.

2

Are there really that many exceptions to normal Fascism due to Mosley?

The only ones I recall are:
· European unity
· Anti-german
· Pacifism

PinkedDuck•

You want to get a fuck tone of defensice inf and even more plans then so some chipping, after a few coffees and all 3 of your future children turning 18. You should be in moscow

It’s totally winnable, I would recommend trying to make some progress into china before you fully focus on the Soviets. Use the time to build up supply, airfields, radar, and railways.

Collab governments, air, and tanks.

2
Manatee-97•

Yes but you will want more manpower to occupy everything.

2
Ylteicc_General of the Army•

make some manpower appear out of nowhere and you're halfway there, WHOOOOO-OOO LIVING ON A PRAYER!!!!!

2
Ofiotaurus•

Wait for manpower to get back up. And up conscription.

CAS and Airpower basically wins lategame hoi

2
Tomirk•

Easily, but a bit of preparation will be needed though. First you’re gonna want to annex Italy (just send them convoys) and form EU, that’ll secure manpower issues. Probably best to not call India into the war either, but if manpower returns to being a problem shore up the Indian front lines and try and do the imperial conference I guess. India is the vital one here, but if you’ve got the American dominion then they’re also good

It is possible but its more fun to put your dick into a pensil sharpener than to do that

2
Ok_Chef825•
