Hearts of Iron IV - Dev Diary 3 - Bringing WWII to the mainstream

Cats are a clear downgrade to dogs though.

BTW, dog buttons are explained in the OP, 1 button per mission.

A very valid point. Hopefully you can upgrade your ND to a RC with the proper rocket tech research (and rocket test site, of course...)

Please. That is clearly a CK2 or EU4 DLC. Rocket cats were just no longer viable in the second world war. It would be like trading in your armored cars for horses.

...Were this real, I admit that I'd probably just play whoever got Corgis.

France - French Poodle. Passive bonus: Fluffy. Has a fine, white coat.

What? No effect?

*Now expects some semi racist French jokes*

ahahhaahh

I suggest Alaskan Malamute as special USA unit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaskan_Malamute

But does it have Fish AI?

What? No effect?

It has the color of your flag. I assume that it will boost national unity after a successful surrender.

PS: I do not consider this racist, just anti-French on a purely cultural level.

 

[Zoob]

Also, who needs effects when you have Fluffy. Fluffy is all you need.

This is the only smart April Fools joke I've seen. gg Paradox

Confirmed! HoI4 better than CK2! CK2 doesn't even have cat perks!

 

[misterbean]

nicely done, Podcat. Very funny!

 

[Thanik]

Dogs? I want polar bears too!

P.S. National dog will be immortal, or you can create more?

Actually, there are three French dogs because there are three French country tags. Podcat only mentioned the first one.

The Vichy tag comes with a poodle that's very loyal and does whatever Hitler tells it to do. It will surrender periodically when either the Third Republic falls or when the Germans enact Case Anton.

The Free French tag comes with an Artois Hound. It is independent and fast, and encourages the formation of underground resistance cells. It will also refuse to cooperate fully with the Allies, enacting its own foreign policy whenever the British and Americans are not looking.

US national dog should really be a mutt

I almost choked on my breakfast while laughing when reading the OP.

Every nation, of course!

But some nations eat their dogs.

I miss an Italian dog. I am not sure about the breed, but it should enable you to change factions freely.

HUGE national unity hit if they do so

I miss an Italian dog. I am not sure about the breed, but it should enable you to change factions freely.

perhaps it even has problems due to being a bit gassy...

The best April Fool's post. Hands down

 

[debozewolf]

eeeuhm... Does this mean there will be specialized battalions available as well for cleaning up the dogshit?
