But in the end, the focuses are the projects which can change your nation.
These are projects your entire nation works on, and cost you political power. Through national focuses which can be found in the Focus Tree, you can better your economy, gain advantages on the battlefield, make political advancements or gain war goals on your enemies. This means that you must build factories and infrastructure, build up and train your armies and airforce, research better weapons and technologies.
You can play any country you like, from the UK to Italy, from Mexico to Japan. The game focuses on the period before and during the Second World War. This means that the player must react to situations immediately. Being a RTS, the game time runs on while you play, in contrast to turn based strategy games such as Civilzation VI. Running from 1933 onwards, you can lead your country through peace, war, economic crises and so on. In HoI IV, the player gains control over a nation in troubling times. As a big RTS and HoI IV fan, I had to play and review this game.īefore I start however, I will first give a short introduction into the world of HoI for those who are unknown with the game. Called La Résistance, it is the fifth large DLC since the release of HoI IV in 2016. Last February, Paradox Interactive released their latest DLC for the WW2 real time strategy (RTS) game Hearts of Iron IV.
