Rocket Man- Germany Experiment.

[Zardnaar]

Germany late 1940. In 36 I started a rocket line X10 which was complete just before Poland in 39. My remaining IC went into factoriesX3 and all new IC went into new factories for the most part. I then rushed most of the rocket related techs.

Mostly playing it semi historical. I ponly have Poland and France and the Luftwaffe is helping ou Italy in Africa and i have assumed control. Just started a line of X20 V1s which will be ready soon. There will be no Barbarossa and I have a decent Luftwaffe and a reasonably large amount of lvl IV subs. The Bismarck and Tirpitz will be complete soon along with X3 battlecruisers. I hae hardly used rockets before and my plan is to turn southern england into a large hole. No infrastructure, IC, airports, or ports. The Luftwaffe will also be helping out. The russkies will probably attack me at some point so they can have a few rockets as well and V2's shold be ready in 41 sometime.

How do you put it all togather? Need ideas and experience please. Also want to sink the RN with my few capital ships. Banzai.

Interesting... why put it in Rostock though? Historical flavor? (If so, why not build it in Stralsund?) It'd probably be safer in Munich or Dresden.

According to the wiki, the actual time that gets cut levels off (providing differences of only a day) after you build up to level five. Level 10 is probably overkill.

Also don't forget that rocket test sites also reduce the time it takes to research technology with rocketry components. So, Infantry 1943, Rocket Artillery, and the Jet Aircraft will also benefit.

My advice: tech rush the nuclear stuff as well and see how soon you can build a missile with a nuclear weapon.

I think it is at lvl 7

I haven't tech rushed the nukes. Doubt you could have nuke armed missile much before 47 maybe 46 if you started 2 years early. Its the IC thats the killer. with V2's falling on London in late 41.

X10 rocket sites. additional benefits as well. 20 IC from 1st jan-august 39 approx.
multiple airfields built along French coast.
20 X1,6 IC for V1's. LAter reduced to X10 once gearing bonus and rocket assembly line kick in. V1 every 13 days.
20 X2.4 V2 probably reduced to X10 later on.
X9 lvl IV subs

Alot of IC to choke off England and reduce it to rubble. The bottom half is slag early 42. Low infrastructure, destroyed airfields, 0 IC. Probably equal about 40 IC eventually to keep it more or less under continual bombardment. + repair bill on planes aiding out. 5% research per day on rocket fields though.

You will need to have constant flow of rocket production, if you want to keep the brits in stone age. Infra will rise back eventually and rebuild along the ic and other buildings. You will also need to take care of indian ic, to completely destroy thier ic.

Hence the X10 and X20 rocket production. Looks like the Luftwaffe will have to hit the northern provinces. Managed to get England down to a base 92 IC.
