If a state has a small VP but multiple ports and an air base it will over-garrison that state and undergarrison the state with a 2 big VPs (lots of resistance) but no ports or air base.īetter to move your units manually to where resistance is growing. It does not balance your units to supress resistance. Garrison battleplan does nothing but send units to victory points, airbases, naval bases, and ports. If you would just use garrison on both you only need 2 divisions because they always move to the province that has the highest resistance. Your way you would waste 3 divisions on these two provinces. Your MP cavalary will move accordingly where it's needed most -> You need alot less manpower!įor example province1 with no units gets 5% resistance each day, province2 gets 2% each day and your cavalary template for example has 4% suppression. Thats why you ALWAYS use garrison for the country parts you have resistance in. That's a total waste of manpower! Like Mihai explained you get resistance bonus depending on your research and your government. You can also click on a state and hover over the resistance box in the bottom left corner window to get the same information. Keep building these supression divisions until everything on the resistance map mode goes away. The number of divisions you'll need depends on your occupation policy and how many cav battalions you have in each division. Originally posted by LGC Bridger:Third, use the Resistance Map mode to see where the problem areas are, and manaully move your cavalry supression divisions to those areas. I usually wind up using around 30-50k manpower spread out into 80-110 divisions of cavalry, depending on level of MP, occupation policy, and number of cav Battalions in your division. You can also click on a state and hover over the resistance box in the bottom left corner window to get the same information.ġ20 divisions is probably about right if you're using the harshest occupation policy on France (if you have all of it and didn't give any to Vichy). Third, use the Resistance Map mode to see where the problem areas are, and manaully move your cavalry supression divisions to those areas.
Hearts of iron 2 vichy or total conquest full#
You don't even need them to be at full training (training level has no effect on supressing resistance). They are not that big and shouldn't require too much equipment.

Second, spam out those divisions right before you start a big conquest. *Never use infantry* if you can use cavalry instead. Cavalry is literally 2x as effective at suppressing resistance compared to infantry. There's some very bad advice in this thread.įirst, create a division with 4-6 cavalry battalions and an MP company (nothing else).
