I can't decide between Soviet Union or Germany. I've played SU the most in DD and Arma so I figure it would be easier to adjust to the new features, but I also feel like there would actually be a chance of being beaten to a bloody pulp as an AoD newb with Germany, which is something I'd like to see. :D

Germany. Why? It's my most-played country in HOI2 ARMA, and now that I can actually use Airpower in a meaningful manner, the clouds of Stukas shall descend upon France! :D

Nazis; Cute, cuddly and loveable.



Maybe I should try that. Never played France.:eek:o



Not much use for rail guns as UK, or?:)

Well, i'm curious as to how the Railguns will work....will they be attatchable to divisions as brigades, or deployed on a province level like AA guns and such.

There's a picture of an infantry division with a RAIL brigade in the original beta AAR with a description of how they were used by x260bm

In Arsenal of Democracy there is a new feature that allows ground units to conduct artillery bombardments. This ability is greatly increased if an artillery brigade is attached to the division. Of course the best brigade for shelling the enemy is the new railway artillery brigade. I built an army with railway artillery and placed it in Leningrad as shown in the next screen. Since performing artillery bombardment missions reduces a unit’s supplies and organization, I have found that is best to concentrate artillery in special 3 division armies whose main purpose is to shell the enemy.

Germany probably.

Though with my newly released version of my mod I'll probably either play Angola, Germany or Sweden in it and see if the new AI will have some awesome effects on the mod.

Can already see the potential of new transcontinental AI making up the grounds for an Lousiana or Bolivian world conquest. :cool:

United Kingdom - it will let me check out all of the new features on land, sea and air! Will be interesting to see if my convoys are seriously threatened.

I'll probably start as Argentina, as I wanted to play an Axis Argentina anyhow. Started that in HOI 3 and was very disappointed with the low leadership.
