For those who don't play paradox games or Hearts of Iron 4, I did a difficult achievement, which is starting as communist china and proclaiming the People's republic of china. You have to fight an uphill battle starting from a single province. I managed to consolidate, drive out the japanese, and turn on the Kuomintang in a few years. This last year has been researching and preparing a naval invasion to fully defeat Japan. Of course, I had to keep Mao as the head, otherwise how could I really claim to have created the PRC?
Are there any good guides? I'm fucking terrible at most RTS games. I need my turns. But this seems really cool and I wanna play it. FTL may actually be my all time favorite and I feel like a complex RTS could appeal but I've never clicked with one.
This excellent video did it for me.
Let me ping my friend and get back to you. When we first started playing he watched a 4 hour guide, which is excessive, but he went into the game knowing everything. He ended up teaching me. So I’ll find that and link you, just reply to this to remind me.
