Anarchist guide world conquest

[George Smith Patton]

I can win the civil war pretty easily, however i cant get further, ive tried planes, Tanks, Mechanized etc. I cant make signifgant progress to start coreing the world. I get stuck at the mountains with vichy. There isnt any guides on what are good stratgies as anarchist spain, so give me your strats down below.

Finish the civil war ASAP, take out Portugal, then invade China from your holdings there. Southern China should have some good IC/resources which can help your build up supply. From there you have options. I’d suggest taking out Japan as you can just spam subs and steal what they’ve earned in Asia. And/or look south and you can steal all the rubber and oil you can. Not only does this strengthen you, it heavily caps the Allies’ ability to build aircraft.

my only "legit" world conquest,went like this
-win civil war before ww2
-after ger cap fra,declare war naval invade uk,steal canada britain and some lands with resources,uk with its navy lives on in Ghana(1940)
-farm for years to get enough medium tank for hundreds of various divisions(1945),take down usa(1946),then the whole america
-1950 soviet still not dead with over 90% cap despite at war with both ger and japan,so i decided to "help" before i am forced to take on ger alone,after i pushed axis out of france i found out that all my convoys are dead and little resources can go into my factories,my stockpile are emptied,i managed to build the anti sub navy while using nukes to hold the frontline,then soviet managed to push back,cap ger in 1953,axis not peaced out because norway became a major,i decided to take down china(still alive)and japan before going for the soviet
-last nation was rasputin led russian empire,i dont remeber what happened here but apparently i capped russia twice,unification at 1960

IIRC Anarchist Spain gets a base 5% manpower rate on cores, so taking one or two regions in China should set you for your next war.

You can also take India (British Raj) via Goa, depending on how the world situation works. I suggest China as it can be done early and without involving the Allies. However, India can also provide all the manpower you need.

Stack an army on Goa, push out, spam subs all around, encircle the troops as needed, and pivot north. Don’t be afraid to upgrade as you push inland. Infra, ports, railroads, airports, etc. Losing the Raj represents a big loss for the Allies. Huge loss of manpower and a fair loss of IC/resources. From there you can push into British Malaysia and take out all their rubber and oil. After that you should be able to take out the UK, or at least weaken their navy/airforce to the point the Axis will. Or just focus on island hopping across the Pacific and take out Australia/New Zealand too.

For the life of me, I can not naval invade UK. As soon as I declare war (takes only 10 days to justify for the claim on Gibraltar) my naval superiority drops to about 18%, and that's while keeping a small force on nationalist Spain so I still get the Civil War benefits and another on Gibraltar to keep their forces choked. I can easily set an entire division on coastal defense too. Idk what i'm doing wrong with that strategy but I've tried about 6 times now and every time I can't invade. If it makes any difference, this is usually around the same time Germany declares war on Poland. I've also tried after Germany captures France. Is it still a timing issue? Maybe I need to do before Germany declares on Poland?

i think you need the invasion to launch at the moment of war declaration.

This is option 1, your only other real option is to grind them down. So make sure you have your invasions set and ready to go the moment you declare war otherwise you’re in for a fight.

There is a reason Sealion didn’t happen irl. You’re facing the navy ever, of all time.
If your initial invasion doesn’t work, spam out subs and if you have MtG lay mines all around the UK. Sub 3s with max torpedos and snorkels set to high engagement should be enough to start chipping away at the Royal Navy.

Also, finish the civil war ASAP. The buffs are nice and the debuffs after suck, but you want to churn through your focus tree and recore your lands.

What army bulid is best for this? Ive tried everything (against vichy and the axis in 1940 admitedelly.) artillery, tanks, even a plane bulid, none are great honestly for pushing. I had hope to push get encirclements, none though worked, I could hold, never push or make encorclments.

I did it after fra cap because I can't even hold the french front,and about the naval invasion,UK moved their navy some time after I declared war,so it's not timing of that,maybe it's a pattern with reasons but imma put it as luck
