Hearts of Iron Q&A at E3 2009

Producer Johan Andersson has taken time out from his busy development schedule to do a one-off exclusive Q&A session from E3. Paradox fans were given a unique opportunity to put their questions to Johan on all things Hearts of Iron III related. Although there wasnt time to answer all of them due to the sheer volume received, we managed to get answers to the questions that real fans want to know. Why does Johan think Hearts of Iron III is a great and unique game and what makes Hearts of Iron III different from Hearts of Iron II? All this and much more is revealed, plus of course a few exclusives just for the occasion.

Some Hearts of Iron III features revealed in the E3 presentation are:
·Historical Events & Decisions
·Completely new information about deployment.
·Unit control together with automation.
·Details on the new Logistics system.

Hearts of Iron III is now in the Beta stage of development. These last months the team has been stabilizing the foundations of the AI, tightening up the rules and mechanics of the game, along with implementing brand new artwork and interface features.

You still need this info mate? I have an indepth strategy guide and supliment from an athour called Edwin Hanks. The in game tutorials are only to teach you the interface. These strat guides go into detail on a range of things from the economical aspect to military doctrines (tactics) to the tech tree and more. It even tells you how to get started and what to do.

I highly recomend it as it sheds light on everything.

I just purchased this game on Steam, but the tutorials are not very informative.

I want to learn how to play this game properly, and I would like an 'idiots guide' as to how to play this game well. Some YouTube videos would be useful.
