Description

Take charge of history’s greatest war machines in Hearts of Iron IV, a grand strategy wargame that challenges your strategic abilities and political insight. Refight World War II at the head of nation from the time period, building up an industrial powerhouse and a diplomatic alliance that will effectively wage war on ideological opponents.

Hearts of Iron IV is more than a historical simulation. Alternate historical paths open up with almost every decision you make, from small ones such as where to launch your attack to crack open Fortress Europe, to large ones, such as whether to re-establish democracies or long forgotten monarchies.

In Hearts of Iron IV, you can plan the military strategy almost down to the rivets, as you design division templates for your armies, research new modes of production and means of destruction, set out factory instructions and pursue political objectives. Almost no part of the war goes untouched as you guide a nation of your choice through humanity’s darkest hour.

This purchase comes with the Hearts of Iron IV base game as well as three expansion packs:

  • Death or Dishonor: focuses on eastern and central European middle powers
  • Together for Victory: focuses on British Commonwealth nations
  • Waking the Tiger: focuses on China and Japan

Features:

  • Total strategic war: War is not only won on land, sea and in the air. It’s also achieved in the hearts and minds of men and women.
  • Authentic real-time war simulation: Let the greatest commanders of WW2 fight your war with the tools of the time; tanks, planes, ships, guns and newly discovered weapons of mass destruction.
  • Assume control of any nation: Choose from the greatest powers striving for victory, or the small nations trying to weather the storm.
  • Turn the world into your battlefield: Experience the full WWII timespan in a topographical map complete with seasons, weather and terrain. Snow, mud, storms can be both your strong ally and a ruthless enemy.
  • Negotiate or force your will: Experience the advanced politics and diplomacy systems, form factions, engage in trade for resources and appoint ministers to your party.
  • Intense Online Combat: Battle in both competitive and cooperative multiplayer for up to 32 players. Featuring cross-platform multiplayer.
  • Give your nation a unique edge: Experience the flexible technology system, where all major powers get their own unique identity. Develop detailed historic tanks and planes through research and army experience.

    Paradox does it again*****

    The third Paradox game I have played so far, and the third one I have enjoyed thoroughly. Even if you get bored with the base game, there is a very active modding community. I recommend checking out "The Road to 56".

    Good Grand Strategy Title*****

    A lot easier to understand than HoI3. Grand Strategy games are something you either really get into or hate I think. I had fun with this one, the amount of mods for it are quite incredible! (I highly recommend Equestria At War if you happen to have any interest in MLP, that mod has absolutely insane amounts of lore)
