HOI2Wiki:Nation Strategy Style

From HOI2Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

This style guide should apply to all national strategy guides in the HoI2 Wiki.

Contents

Goals

  • Allow for numerous different viewpoints and strategy possibilities.
  • Describe strategy from the national perspective (e.g. "Germany's next important target is France", instead of "Your next most important target is France")
  • Use a third person narrative if necessary (e.g. use the words "the player" instead of "you")
  • The main article should be used for conventional, reasonably historical strategies.
  • Examples: Japan_strategy, Germany_Strategy_Guide.

Things to Avoid

  • Strategy guides should not be a step-by-step instruction manual (e.g. move your troops to this province, or build exactly 4 TAC, and use them to bomb this port).
  • Strategy guides should not use the words "you" or "I"
  • Not a place to brag about conquests or exploits
  • Always put gamey tactics, ahistorical strategies, or blatant AI exploits in the "Gaming the System" category.
