Command hierarchy Puns

I read that the DA don't follow the standard codex for chapter organisation. Can someone ELI5 this for me? what are the wings and orders?

Hello ladiesss..

SO.. I’m 32. My man is 41. He has a 17 year old, and I have a 14 & 9 year old.

Going into our relationship it was just unspoken knowledge that there were no babies that were going to be a product of this relationship.. our kids are older and starting over is just crazy with all the plans we have for life, and the crazy schedule and life we lead.

WHY DOES MY UTERUS SCREAM AT ME THAT IT WANTS A BABY ?! And my brain is like ‘YUP... we’re going to make you emotional & cry over a baby you don’t want just for fun!’ I swear I’m insane. I don’t like little kids. I had MASSIVE depression issues with both of mine until they hit 5/6yo.

But maybe it’s just biology? My body telling me I’m running out of time? I’m officially at that age where I’m more at risk so my insides are trying to force me to pump out more crotch goblins??

Whyyy am I longing so much for something I realistically do not want?

Anyone else go through this???

So, rule 2 means youtube comments shouldn't be focused, but i found an kinda singular one, in the comments of Potential History's videos.

An guy gave the idea of "One of the attempts on Hitler's life working in 1941 and Rommel becoming the Furher"

Besides the basic that the best Rommel could do was to make peace, why people think an general, doesn't matter how effective, would become the leader from nowhere?

It's an strange thing, since i saw too people talking about Manstein becoming the leader.

does anyone have a clear idea of the hierarchy ? how many postmasters are there and are there tiers to them ? then you have Plant Managers , Safety , SDO

so what i know is 204B -Supervisor - Manager - Area Manager - postmaster - MPOO (Manager of post operations ) - District Manager

I was wondering if there was any kind of mod that gave hoi4 the command structure of hoi3 since that was my absolute favourite part of the game and i would love to be able to use it in hoi4 Thanks in advance

As we all know, when we construct our divison-templates there can be a variety of fielded manpower in the divisions, though the fighting force were usually defined by the size of them.

So would this be somewhat accurate:

• Brigade = 10 width
• Division = 20 width
• Corps = 40 width

I like Makhno and all, but I'm divided on whether his command was a just or necessary hierarchy, would like your input on this.

I’m coming from the GNU/Linux world and I haven’t used Windows since XP. Though recently I installed it on a gaming rig and started using it, I don’t really understand how it works, like at all. Full confession: I am opposed to using Windows as my main OS on ethical grounds as a dues paying member of the Free Software Foundation, but I don’t actually know how it works and this bothers me, especially given how popular the OS is. Of course most of the settings, customizarions, etc. are self-explanatory but I wanted to find a resource that would run through all of it, from “explaining this to grandma” to how the kernel works, even if it’s way over my head. I’ve always loved the aesthetic of Windows, there is a major nostalgia factor in it for me. If anyone could point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Guilliman now Lord Commander of the Imperium and commander in chief of all imperium military. How will it change? Will he/they be subordinate to him? How to prevent conflicting orders from different primarchs?

So I was reading about the hierarchy system which seems to have an overall commander and then leaders for the three different types of units. Does this mean you will only be able to control that type in the battle? What about just controlling your own troops?

Seems like this sort of structure is at odds with an opposition to hierarchy.

So I've seen a few mentions of say inquisitors being able to requisition and temporarily command chunks of SM chapters. PDF and IG regiments falling under SM commanders and chapter masters.

Is there any consistent hierarchy equivalents though? Like say at what rank (plametary/system/sector/segmentum) does a IG or IN leader have equal authority to a SM commander of chapter master? What level of inquisitors get influence at similar levels? Where would a SoB Canoness fall in to the hierarchy?

Or is it all arbitrary and reliant on some "Ork-esque" reputation equivalency to who kneels to who in each scenario?

I know the post is a little vague, just getting it in so I don't forget, will try and clean it up if needed after work.

We've been introduced to a lot of new characters in D2, and based upon their relations and positions, I came up with some organization possibilities as a "what if".

CONSENSUS: With The Speaker dead and the Traveler now alive once again...while there's no indication the Consensus has been absolved, one wonders now if there's a need for it anymore? The factions still exist obviously, but how is the rebuilding City going to structure itself now that the Big Silver Ball is back in the fold?

SPEAKER: Speaking of Speakers, with him now gone, if there was to be another one appointed, who could it be? All fingers would point to Osiris, but that's assuming he'd have interest in returning to The Last City, which I doubt because his focus is on a bigger picture. Is there one even needed anymore?

THE IRON LORDS: As of Rise Of Iron, there are now 3 of which can officially be called Iron Lords...Lord Saladin, Lady Efrideet and The Young Wolf (aka The Guardian, aka our player). With the coming return of The Iron Banner, will Saladin be looking to bolster his ranks, and is he going to have a role in future content or just be an Vendor NPC again?

I've been wondering what rank and role the player would assume in the chain of command, being the one responsible for the amount of units in a given deck, say a general one.

Secondly I do not know how many people are needed to operate some systems, say, AA, Artillery and logistic trucks. Therefor I can't quite sum up the amount of men one commands in a typical deck.

In Hearts of Iron III you had total control over the order of battle and command hierarchy of your armies. Brigades (X) were placed into Divisions (XX), which went into Corps (XXX), which went into Armies (XXXX), which went into Army Groups (XXXXX) which finally went into Theatres (XXXXXX). Each level of the command (except, technically, brigades) could have a commander and had a unique bonus at that level depending on the skill of the commander. Each commander also had traits which could trickle down the command hierarchy according to a percentage based on how high up the command hierarchy they were (a leader of a division gives 100% of his trait bonus to that division, a leader at a Theatre level only gives ~2.5% of his trait bonus to all units in his Theatre).

This system was pretty cool, it allowed you to really customise your army and see all these different historical leaders. However, arguably it involved way too much micro-management. Particularly when you consider that every Corps, Armies, Army Groups and Theatres all had HQs that had to be moved around the map to stay within radio range of the units under them to apply their bonuses. Meaning in big operations like Unternehmen Barbarossa one had to ensure that their HQs were moving up along with their front-line units. It was pointless tedium that really could've been automated or just assumed to be happening in the background.

Anyway, it looks like in HoI4 the HQs have been removed and so they've taken the (in my opinion) correct decision to assume that all of the basic necessaries of the tedium of command are going on in the background. However, from what I've seen on streams and whatnot it looks like the command hierarchy is extremely limited now too. There are only to 2 levels of commander, General and Field Marshal. Generals control up to 24 divisions, Field Marshals can control any number of divisions. However, it does not seem to be the case that you can nest Generals under Field Marshals, for instance it does not appear that you can create two Armies of 20 divisions being led by 2 Generals and then place a Field Marshal in command of them both. I personally don't like this loss of complexity, and although I appreciate the reduction in tedium I feel a better balance could've been struck.

What do you think?

EDIT: Significant edits made to update the OP with information I've learnt from the comments and other sources. EDIT2: My suggestion would be to only illustrate the command hierarchy

Hey guys, been reading up on some fluff regarding chaos hierarchy. Mostly between greater daemons and daemon princes. Maybe they are one in the same? Anyways I am wondering what you all think on the subject, what does the chain of command look like inside the ranks of chaos all the way up to the Chaos Gods.

Also how powerful are bloodthirsters? If I had to guess I'd put them just below a primarch (believe they are 0-2 against primarchs).

Hello, I am new to this game. I have gone through many the tutorial on command hierarchy and such, and I am now reorganizing my own army for the fist time.

I know you can hit c, and it takes a unit and increases its rank or "Xs" but how do I decrease a unit's "Xs".

for example I can take an army and make it an army group. but I don't know how to take an army group and make it an army.

sorry if this is a dumb question, but I have tried looking on my own a fair amount. this is simply part of that search.

also I have the vanilla game.

EDIT: so I played this game some more. and I was playing as Germany trying to reorganize my starting army. I essentially detached everything from everything. this left me with some corps armies etc. that did not have any subordinates bellow them. does that mean it is safe to delete these corps armies etc.?

for example is a corp simply a group of divisions. or can corp be something significant without any divisions below it?

imanuel@orangepipc:~$ find /media/et10000 -name '*' -exec file {} \; | grep -o -P '^.+: \w+ image' | cut -d':' -f1 | xargs -I {} sh -c "fname="{}"; echo 'filename:'; echo $fname; filebase=$(basename $fname); filenew=${fname:14}; cp -dv $fname /media/newhdd/photos$fnamenew; ln -s /media/newhdd/photos/year/$(date +%Y)/$fnamebase /media/newhdd/photos$fnamenew"

The problem is, the fname variable doesn't seem to get set, so that's probably the reason why this happens: cp: missing destination file operand after ‘/media/newhdd/photos’

I'm quite avidly reading through Churchill's The Second World War, I'm at the beginning of the third book - "The Fall of France". At this point Churchill has just become the head of the new National Government and he writes a lot about his new administration, he seems fairly proud of the effort and organization of it, and boasts that the arrangement and personnel barely changes throughout the course of the war. The trouble is, as I read, I'm having a hard time following the meaning and relative rank of First Lords, Ministers and members of cabinets etc. So does anyone know of something like a tree diagram that illustrates where each person in the upper levels of this government falls, what they are responsible for and what body or which person to whom they are responsible? Thanks.
