Hearts of Iron IV

HOI IV Dev Corner | Strikes!

Paradox Development Studio

Hello there!

Your feedback has been much appreciated, both with civil wars and old Canada content. So I come here once again to ask you what do you think about…. Strikes ! (As in the labour history, workers striking for better rights)

I’m particularly curious about what you feel about the generic strikes (low stability) vs country specific strikes (like Australia’s communist paths)

  1. What do you think about the generic strike events?
  2. What times do you think country specific strikes have been done A. Well? B. Poorly? And why?

And finally some specific questions.

  1. When do you, as a player, want to strike? And what do you think the current system(s) lack in this regard?
  2. Would you want strikes to be overhauled (probably not for this expansion, if at all!) into a more complex system? And if so, what would you like to see?
  3. What do you think strikes in HoI4 get right, and what does it miss?
