Ever since I was a kid, my parents have always said that my mom knows German...then they do a weird laugh about it. Some sort of inside joke I never got on

That is not a good thing. Germans are often associated with weird sex practics :(
 
Decided to update my pic since I've grown a beard in the last few weeks. My wife is not a fan but pretty much everyone else has given me the thumbs up. What do you guys think yay or nay?

(for reference)

Apparently I'm 8th highest poster here.

Huh. I could've sworn other people posted more. Maybe it's just because more Americans exist to take up the slack while I'm asleep, then when I'm awake it's me and a few other people. WHO KNOWS.

Also oooh myyy gooood

Also TDM, no offense, but aren't all HOI games essentially the same, except for some graphical updates of the map&interface? Serious question.

They cover WW2 and are the same genre. But there are big mechanical differences between them. More profound changes than exist between mainline pokemon or madden games.

Oh I know the game. Heck I own it. But you'll seriously have to explain to me how they're any different mechanistically.

And Pokemon just jumped from 2D to 3D, I'd consider that a pretty big leap. :p

HoI3 added AI automation (including specifying objectives, splitting by theaters etc), multiplied the number of provinces by a huge margin (9x more than HoI2) which transforms combat manuevering by allowing so many more opportunities for outflanking and spreading for forces, the concept of construction practicals (build lots of tanks, building tanks becomes cheaper and faster, but if you stop building them this ability decays), completely changed the way Research worked (directed research, integration of practicals, no more "hard coding" of country research to force roughly historical tech), a custom division designer so you can specify how many brigades of what make up each division you want to build....................................

The expansions for HoI3 each added big shifts too. Each HoI entry sees them completely throwing out certain concepts, adding new ones, and often radically changing what was kept. It's not like "oh its exactly like the last but with better graphics!"

What we know:

- Coming in 2015
- 1936-1948 time-line
- More detailed tech tree system
- Battle plans you draw on the map will actually give appropriate orders. Mark where armies go, bombs drop, etc and it'll do it.
- More focus on playability, slightly easier learning curve
- Political game fleshed out. Political leaders are fewer, but more important. Ideas you can unlock & implement.
- Strategic Warfare. Not everything is on a single-province level. E.g. air raids & submarine stuff can happen over larger areas instead of province-by-province micro.
- Brand new (supposedly wonderful) map
