Soviet Naval Strategies

Not recommended.

1) Because Greece decided it's a good idea to declare war on my puppet Turkey.
They joined allies and called them all in.
2) Then my puppet Romania refused to give up Northern Transylvania and Hungary declared war on them, calling the whole Axis.
3) Hitler ofc did not forget to also attack any available neutral state around there, adding them all to the Allies as well.
4) For some reason half of fascist/democratic american states also joined the allies later

Wow- that's a crazy outcome. Did all this happen with historical focuses on?

I'm guessing they were off since you mentioned the fascist USA, but that is still quite a snowballing of what seemed to be a mostly innocent opening move.

Not sure if the other posters on this thread saw this- a player running wild with a massive 500+ ship Soviet fleet:

To be fair, Taureror didn't build and design most of it himself, he just absorbed his puppets with major fleets. Might not appeal to everybody since this way as he put it was specifically to achieve naval dominance with minimal effort since he himself hates it. At least of me, part of the fun is actually sinking the big enemy fleets rather than just eliminating and puppeting every nation that can threaten your dominance of the seas and taking over their fleets.

Sometimes I feel like Taureor is bored by actually playing HOI4, and instead does everything to win the game without really playing it. I think this video is a perfect example.

Yeah, sorry, I only watched the first few minutes and thought of this thread.

Then after posting the link, I watched more of the vid, and I saw it was mostly puppeting and absorbing fleets, instead of having the USSR building one on it's own. It's still an interesting watch, but not exactly what I thought it was going to be based on the title.
