Can't argue with that logic
Luxembourg 1939 let's go boys, the only worth while like goal
Just be fascist omegalul
And there's me who wants to see Taureor fully take Japan as Menghouko
I dont think hes ever gotten that many on a hoi4 video, i doubt it will happen pretty unrealistic
I was getting ready to comment that
Yay PLZ

Ok taureor
Ah yes my favorite troops the Fascist assault divisions
Wtf based taureor
Better than the starving divisions

I'm sorry mate, but you're going to need a convoy to deliver all these convoys.
Makes sense.
Don't worry it's just the natives showing the newcomers where the smuggler's den lies.
I like to imagine what the American AI was thinking.

"What? How? WHY?"

Taureor, I have an Idea of a challenge to you. It's the Decolonization challenge.
You play as UK, go through the Decolonization path and liberate all the colonies in the world.
That means you have to invade and fragment all the other colonial empires, including Japan and US. Also remember to fragment the Raj before decolonizing it.
You also cannot have puppets neither annexed territories, but you can annex a country in a peace deal and then release it as a free country, just to change the ideology if needed.
You can still keep Wales and Scotland, because they are your cores.
Any ideology is allowed, but I think communism is the best one for this challenge, because you get a focus that allows you to demand Decolonization for some countries, and it's s good opportunity to get "crush the dream".
Good luck if you want to do this, and I like your videos much.
great challenge I will try it one day
Upvote this
I thought of something like this, but, the way you put it, nice challenge, I hope it gets voted
Copy pasta this to other videos i wanna see this
UK can't keep Scotland tbh
Generals: How many times do we have to execute order 66?
Taureor: yes
They are Order 66-a,Order 66-b and Order 66-c.

It's much less exhausting than fighting Americans.

If you decolonize Africa it's really easy and actually pretty fun
@@boze1204 Yeah But some ppl wanna do it with europe In africa
@gillysuit2 try Holding a line on the capital wait and if Italy's divs move From eth expand but u might have to wait till ww2 to join allies or axis before italy
@@genericname5909 the easiest way to win is make the 3 province fallback like (the province left to your capital, your capital, the province right to your capital),then immediately research maintenance companies for that 5% equipment capture rate and make as many military factories as you can to produce support equipment with, after doing that you'll need to hold out for a bit (use last stand if needed) and then you should have enough equipment to make new divisions and push the italians back
@gillysuit2 you just need to shadowpuppet china
imagine being the US and seeing 1000 cavalry regiments disembark from a single convoy
"If they have military access on my territory, they shouldn't attack me"
No Taureor! You fell victim to your own blunder!
Ok it’s 5 AM where I’m at and I was literally just about to sleep. But here we are.
EST best timezone no competition
Lol i just woke up🤷
I live in honduras and he published in my country it was published at 4:50-5:00 approximately

Liberia 1939 and annex all the major factions after luxembourg
EDIT: Communist so you can't puppet china.
Great idea!
That Yugoslavian Guy Latvia 1939 without avoiding Soviet war is harder.
@@nadiafriesen971 building forts meanwhile switching to fascist, then join Japan, win in China, then join the Axis, then take all the manpower from chinese shadow puppets, then win against the soviets
BONUS TRACK: invade the whole axis and the allies
That Yugoslavian Guy communists can puppet...
Ethiopia is way harder
Watching this as an Icelander who has read his country's history in detail = epic lulz. And that is actually our first president, and yes the ears are impressive.
Even harder: Ethiopia 1936 vs max buff italy
Taureor: "If you take all of Chinas manpower you have basically infinite manpower."
Also Taureor: *has 0 manpower after annexing China two times*
xd
@rob 998 Yes, I know that he had the manpower in his divisions. It was meant as a joke.
However, if you go to 50:24 you can see that he lost about 16.6 million men which is a huge part of the chinese manpower.
“A swarm of millions of Chinese men even without guns can do a lot”- taureor 2019
Especially while invading the US for Iceland.

The edits ruined the comment.
"As you can see a swarm of millions Chinese men, even without guns, can do a lot"
Watching you play and talk is always so relaxing 😎👌
Taureor maybe you could try out „Democracy 3“
I watched an older video in which you were saying you prefer the politics in Hoi4 so that is my recommendation😁👍
You have the voice of a bond villain, and the deviousness to boot
I love it
Your video's have helped me learn quite a bit about HOI4. I'm still learning, making mistakes, and nowhere near MP, but thanks for the efforts made in these challenges. Keep on rocking!
Let there be absolutely no doubt now. Lord Taureor is the greatest HoI4 player in existence today.
Let's go! New Zealand and take the UK and rule the common wealth
cowman the God ya in 1939
Let me tell you, we have at least 3 factories and 20 manpower in Iceland, its not much but it gets the job done
Just found this guy and I really like the way he talks, like it’s not over the top or expressive like other TH-camrs, but just calm, and I really like it. Awesome channel!
Viewers: BuT TaUrEoR ShAdOw PuPpEtInG Is FiXeD

Well I caught this at a good time, great video as always!
Before watching your video, as always.....
21 days away for THE Dutch East Indies challenge, Tau. Good luck.
As Dutch East Indies:
1. Won your independence in a communist civil war
2. Form the Democratic Majapahit Socialist Republic
3. Assume Direct Control of the Comintern
4. Conquer all island states in Asia-Pacific
5. Optional:
a. Annex every state in and bordering the Pacific Ring of Fire
OR
b. Annex all island states in the world
Rules:
- Ironman Mode
- Regular difficulty
- Historical AI Focuses
- Upload the video on August, 17th 2019
Jalesveva Jayamahe!
hey, I'll do Dutch East Indies at some point, but it will probably not go the exact way you want or coincide with the date. What is that date anyway?
August 17th 2019, the Independence Day of Indonesia, or at least the 74th anniversary anyway.
You can make some Poland jokes or references to your "Polish Independence" video.
Next challenge:Mengkukuo world conquest.
You think it's possible?
Democratic mengkukuo
It glitches out for me like the saved game gets corrupted but I bet he could do it.
He do not world conquests ^^
@@krankarvolund7771 true true but he basically could do it at the end of each of his videos.
@@blitzkrieg6964 Yeah, of course ^^

Islandsveldi literally translates to “Island Empire”
Billy The Sentinel is=ice land=land veldi=empire, kinda. So it translates to Iceland Empire.
Alexander Fjeldberg ah, well google translate disagrees
Billy The Sentinel that’s because Iceland is written wrong in hoi4, it’s name is Ísland in Icelandic and Island in nor/swe/den. Also Google translate sucks when it comes to icelandic. I am norwegian and trying to learn icelandic so I should know.
Alexander Fjeldberg understandable, have a nice day
Billy The Sentinel you too!
When you copy strategies of Polish man and your friends think you are pro, but deep inside you are bad Serbian strategist
you HAVE to emphasize the serbian part
@@user-bz1od4yc5r what does this mean? does it include playing trumpet and accordion?
@@freezedeve3119 definitely
@@freezedeve3119 it includes going against natos demonization of Slobodan Milosevic and condemning their terror bombings, whilst playing trumpet and accordion

Serbia holded Austria and Hungary
Wait nevermind, Austria-Hungary sucks alot, so that is not a wonder
Imagine Hirohitos state of mind after realizing the blue blob inside china on the map, the day after the peace treaty where he went to sleep while you said inside the diplomacy wagon "Yeah, yeah. I am going to bed now, I just finish my tea and cigarette."
Really cool video! Good job Taureor! I can tell you worked hard on this one!
Absolutely incredible playthrough. Manually moving each unit into the USA must have been incredibly tedious.
Play any country except the major superpower (uk, france, russia, germany, us, italy, japan)and you have to annex all of the major superpowers. they have to be strengtened to the max.
He did it a think
He did it, a lot of times
"shadow puppeting is dead"
taureor: well yes, but actually no.
That is awesome, Taureor! You actually managed to do something with Iceland, and it wasn't a small thing either! Very nice.
Luxemburg 1939 hard?
Ethiopia 1936: Hold my beer
Fallback line
Wait for the allies to save your arse
Done
You should play as danzing with free city of danzing mod (no factories,no manpower and poland has troops in your territory) instead of lux
@Doktor z Hor But he once played a mod in the challenges.
Danzig*
Or even better for taureor: Gdańsk
@@IquonYT pOlAnd
Incredible how you deep you exploit the game and every time with new strategy no matter the nation you play as and despite the patchs. Great work !
The pacing you edit your way into is quite good.....a lot folks don’t realize how much talent that takes.....kudos sir
Finally new video! Best challenge ever !
I just love how u get a chinese general rooster after conquering parts of Asia, good game
This is still one of my favourite videos you've done :) The result is just fantastic ^^
This was the greatest min-max I have seen I mean you really pulled out all the tricks to make it work nice!
I'm a simple man. When I heard Luxembourg 1939 I smashed that like button.
Play as neutral Poland in 1936 and through the entire game don’t give up a single province.
That's not hard. You could just go fascist and join the axis. The soviets rarely take your provinces if you're good. I'd say adding that you have to be neutral Poland would be better
@Vacant Handle my mistake, corrected now.
Listening to your voice while studying really is asmr. Keep up the good work Taureor.
Damn I just cant. When I'm watching your videos for a moments of blackout I'm thinking about autogefuhl lol.
Calm, relaxing game. Like Poland. :v yes relaxing
We all knew it was coming, and here it is!
I'm excited.....at least with this video of yours i've been able to follow along much better :)
Ive been waiting for this for a while! Nice!
Let’s go baby Poland time
Ah, Sveinn Björnsson was the first PM of Iceland.
Johannes Valurson seems to be completely fictional.
That was very cool, I enjoyed the whole video. Surprised at what can be done with this game.
Great job! Your videos are always entertaining and educational.
Is it possible to release Malta as UK? If so, do a world conquest as Malta >:D
I think Malta has some of the most amazing fascist and non-aligned names after Bhutan
Isn't Malta's fascist name "Tenth Crusade"?
You can only release them through a focus so I don't think you can play as them
You should’ve released as a puppet to make it even harder! Haha we love you but we love seeing you overcome ridiculous restraints XD
Was fun to watch ! GJ !
I am new to game, took me 100 hours and several games of suffering to finally figure out how to play and git gud lol
I started playing HOI4 because of your vids they are great keep them up :D
same here.....i had to play for a very long time and countless times to know what i was doing in this fucking cocksucking game.
That is some incredible patience, I couldn't stand a game like this
*Iceland has 0 factories*
Taureor: "That's fine, I can work with that"
Tell me Taureor, what is it you CAN'T work with?
Play as Poland in 1936 in the battle royale mod using only cavalry. Great video as always! Amazing how much work you put in.
I started watching this video like it’s 15 minutes video and noticed it’s actually an hour long. I like the video
Try doing a game without a single exploit
but why
Here’s the real challenge
Make a video that is NOT entertaining
I love your videos mate
You're a madman. I love it.
Nuke IRL: Wipes off millions of people off the face of the Earth in a milisecond, dealing irreversible damage to the enemy
Nuke in hoi4: Rock
Can you try a let’s play without order 66?
Please Play as macedonia, That is a Challenge 😀
Every time everyone thinks that there is nowhere else. You are releasing a video about Iceland. Go on, I like it.
Szacunek, zarówno za poświęcony czas jak i za pomysł
Most difficult thing in the game? Liberia world conquest
Or just Africa conquest. Doesn't matter
He would basically do the same thing. Help Japan in China, shadow puppet China and then probably look to order 66 Japan. It will get repetitive after a while and boring.
release any british country in africa as a puppet and play as that country
your content is under appreciatet man! Nice done
You are clearly the most dangerous General alive if you were comanding any army in the world it would scare me
play as vietnam and annex the usa
I did that last night lol. So easy
:(
Hey, how 'bout you release Jordan and play it.
Can you even do that? I'm pretty sure Jordan is one of the decolonisation-only countries for Britain.
I have a challange for you. Play as a landlocked nation and conquer as much as you can while staying landlocked. You can take countries not landlocked but have to puppet or satalite their costal areas.
"Perhaps I should annex these two. Let's send them lend lease" xD love it
Hey Taureor Try Fascist Australian-Hungarian Empire Challenge World Conquest
Austro or Australian?
Australian?Are you sure about that?
Vatican City is the hardest.
Like so he can see
This video is just a meme in itself. How are you so good? How???!!?! You're the hoi4 god at this point. Love your vids too! C:
