Heya!

So i just loaded up DH again after quite some time and started as germany in 33 with a load of dissent.

I was just wondering what you guys do to lower dissent as germany or any country for that matter?

How much can i lower it through decisions like "Ban the weimar flag" and similar?


Thanks! :)

I would focus everything on getting to <8% dissent, with a priority towards trading for money and doing investments in national research. At that point you can lengthen conscription terms and build factories faster which is what you should turn to

Not to mention the tons of money, allowing you to boost that research rate through event (if you dont mind full CP)

I go IGGEL's route. There is a sequence of events that will eliminate most of the dissent for you and I find it more useful to let them do the work and use my IC for production and industry builds. The one qualification I'd offer is that there's a random element affecting the time of arrival of several of these events so that things can get ugly now and then.

I always just dump production into reducing dissent until it is all gone. I also spend the money thus produced into research which further reduces dissent.

I´m doing almost the same: using all IC to reduce dissent (and investing in research) until I can activate selective conscription. This reduces the building penalty a lot, so I can start building additional IC.

precisely. at least keep it like so right until ww2 starts, then go partial mob. Before ww2 it doesnt really pay off
