i remember seeing that pistol or whatever that even some of the top priority troops in the mainland had to use, it was something made of wood and a goofy mechansim
"Fun" fact: the Americans were ready to take so many losses during operation downfall, that they are still using purple crosses manufactured in 1945 to this day for their military casualties Edit, sorry, it's purple hearts, not crosses
@@CloudDieStrifende that's also interesting to point this out to everyone acting like nukes weren't actually a necessity. They killed 250-350k people including radiation victims, and the pentagon expected about 1M casualties from the Allies alone for Operation Downfall. And probably 3-5M Japanese.
Just imagine being a chinese soldier in 45 and seeing your enemy de-materialize right in front of you. Along with their equipment. That's what happened in this video when he gave up china.
13:14 It's always a good idea to rename your vehicle variants. You have 2 different types of airplane named "A6M Zero-Sen" at the start of the mod... and you added a 3rd one. That's wishing for something to go wrong, I know I would fuck up with airwings/production at some point.
I'd guess that their insane bonus attack was part of the scripted naval invasions. Ensure they roll over anything defending the port by stacking a crazy bonus and then delete it soon after in hopes the player doesn't notice.
terror bombing as a national spirit that just works around the effects of actual bombers in game that influence your economy and warsupport anyways just seems silly. but then again i have no idea how to get the ai to reliably strat bomb a specific country either
9:28 had that too, played as poland had my navy out, full control, but the soviets continuesly taking the lithuanian coast plus some of the latvian coast
Snorkel is better than radar on subs. If you need detection use nav bombers or a mix of small amount of radar subs and many snorkel subs if your desperate
@@Curtwhogames ill bend the knee is saying you won, should've tried to keep korea though, in a game before they updated japan i kept korea successfuly, still have you something to do when the allies navy and air was destroyed, and obviously it was a springboard into china itself
Fun fact: In preparation for defense of the mainland in 1945, the Japanese were willing to use musket like weapons due to the lack of resources.
"musket like weapons"
Weird way to say Guns made out of Pipes and 2 by 4s.

Well okay then I can't find a reason to find a fault in your argument so yeah.

Just a tip, use some XP to pick the political loyalty army spirit, that saves you 100 ppl when dropping conscription

Weird how it was an option that the japanese wouldnt even surrender if you'd drop something hotter than the surface of the sun on them
maybe you meant purple hearts?
Yeah @jodon2271

really unrealistic. but is a game.
@@wotanvonedelsburg1610 hopwfully a mod is done to fix that
Oh lmao bittersteel did this but he couldnt get rid of those insane modifiers 💀
He actually just did it on stream a couple of days ago. The mod dev patched out the issue where you couldn’t get rid of them
this guy watched the suffering of BitterSteel, and thought, fine, I'll do it myself
Now you gotta see if you can save China in 1950 during this scenario
I didn't make a save at the point annoyingly, tbf it would probably be quite easy as the ai japan would do pathetic naval invasions
I'd like to think you took my strat and improved on it, nice video!
Hey, I did indeed ! Thanks for the idea 💡
Can we fix it? No, we can't! *pop* TENNO HEIKA BANZAI. GLORY TO THE EMPEROR

Great job you absolute madlad!
I say yes, you can do it.
Don't stop believing
Well, I'll give you a tip. 99% of challange videos, can i do this? Is yes they can, it's not special if they lose. And is always click bait.
Japan IRL : out of everything, a decade behind in tech and tactics, holding on "till the end" fanatism
Japan in this video : WIDE hirohito walking
great video curt, not suprised though!
Thanks!

i have 1k hours on this game and i didnt even know half of the buttons you pushed existed

I thought uncles pulling their pants down was normal?

@@Curtwhogames The picture of Charlie from Always Sunny is starting to make more sense...
Decisive Darkness is a alt-history book about a ground invasion of japan
I hope the modder makes the americans land in the north of Okinawa. Pretty sure thats how it went irl
nicely done!
I feel like a kindergardener in a lecture hall rn😅
the war situation has developed necessarily to our advantage ☺️
Can u do a Portugal save the axis video?

Imagine playing that mod as Croatia or Mengkukuo... Why even include them??
