Hearts of Iron 3 Production Explained

Hearts of Iron 3 has taken a much different, and in my opinion far superior approach to the makeup of land units, and how those units are built. In Hearts of Iron 2, you researched a generic infantry unit every 2 years, which was the same unit every other nation in the world would use if they researched that same level technology. The only thing that separated your infantry from that of other nations, was your land doctrines, and any *single* brigade attachment you added to the unit after its creation. Examples of a brigade attachments in HOI2 were artillery, anti-tank, anti-air, engineers, and various tank brigades. While this allowed for some customization, it didn't offer much variation between nations, or allow for a lot of user customization.

Strategy PC Game Hearts of Iron 3 Introduction

Paradox interactive released Hearts of Iron 3 a couple of weeks ago, and have already begun taking community feedback and improving their game further. One patch has already been released, and a second is planned by the end of August. I plan to write a full review at that point, but there is still plenty to be excited about and share until then. Here are some additional images of the HOI3 map, much improved over the featured map in Hearts of Iron 2. Although bigger is obviously better, I give more details on whats been improved with the Hearts of Iron map in my first Hoi3 Hub. I will detail more new features in additional Hubs, with updates here of course. Hearts of iron 3 hub
