DIVISION GAUNTLET · HOI4 1.19.3
Find out whether the division only wins its favorite matchup
Counter Analysis is about one enemy. Gauntlet changes the opponents and terrain so you can see where a template starts falling apart.
One complete matrix
Gauntlet tests 10,000 deterministic opponent designs across eight terrain types while attacking and defending, for 160,000 modeled matchup checks.
Look for blind spots
A template can crush soft infantry and still have a bad time against armor, attacking into rough terrain, or fighting something that hits a different part of its stat profile. Gauntlet is meant to expose those patterns.
Use the same test twice
The opponent set is deterministic. Save a baseline, change one important part of the division, and run it again. That gives you a clean A/B comparison instead of two unrelated samples.
It is not a universal tier list
Gauntlet grades and rankings are planner analytical. Your doctrine, technologies, production situation, likely enemies and terrain still decide what is useful in a real campaign. Use Gauntlet to find the weakness, then use Division Lab to dig into the matchups that matter.
Accuracy boundary
Gauntlet reuses the planner's data and combat model, but opponent generation, grading and aggregation are planner-created analysis. See methodology for the current evidence boundary.
