@Aldrahill BTW once I tried same challenge but with less harsh conditions - I allowed myself to do research, and only "useless" foreing policy focuses/that one from 5 year plan which increases consumer goods, and used template of infantry only- so needed only guns for it) And I picked all worst decisions in purges - so had only trash generals, and lacked them too and with all the worst debuffs. And all my "tactic" was to autoplan so German bullets ended earlier then mine soldiers
@LeifTunteri-lm6un I’m sorry but how many millions of Germans were killed by the Nazis through starting an evil war of conquest or throwing Jewish people or dissidents into camps? Unless you’re saying German Jews didn’t count as “their own people”
You could have used market to buy some outdated equipment. Especially for your elite/pushing divisions Also why not use naval invasions? Finland can easily be capped with a cheeky landing near Helsinki
Pretty sure the Japan thing happens when Italy goes into civil war which caused fascist Italy to trigger tripartite pact with Japan. I don’t know why it pulls them into war with the Soviets when the Soviets are defending but I’ve seen it happen quite a few times.
There's a little button at the top when selecting strat bombing for the planes, that if you click, it opens up a selection window to select what to prioritize for bombing :)
@@Aldrahill fair enough but licenses have their own draw back because isn't it the further in tech the more it cost extra to produce? And with no production research it'd be a harsh trade off
why did you put military police on your infantry 💀💀💀 it literally doesn't do anything and costs equipment and makes your division weaker put it on your garrison or just don't bother at all
I'm surprised you didn't use the tanks created by the soviet-german tank treaty (or whatever its called) they aren't great templates but boosting them with motor inf and arty would work at least early on
Poland stole Czechoslovakian land while Germany was invading in 1938. The land the Soviets took in 1939 was previously part of Belarus and the Soviets invaded after the Polish government fled. I don't like this whole " oh, poor innocent Poland got invaded by the USSR " shit I see in memes.
Oh yeah Poland was a shot country politically in the 30s. Doesn’t meant it didn’t get dicked over by two major powers and basically abandoned in the Phony War
@@Aldrahill 1. The Soviets only received ~20% of the aid given by the US, ~60% of it went to Britain. 2. Lend-lease did not arrive in significant numbers until 1943 and 44, and even among peak imports in things like aluminum it never made up more than ~30% of the amount that the Soviets had.

@@512TheWolf512Do you have some kind of mental disability or are you a troll? It's kind of obvious that this is a map of the USSR with a focus on the Russian SSR.
the non-aggression pact with japan comes from one of their focuses

Ai mostly stopped attacking you because of all the forts, if the AI sees too many forts it just doesn’t try anymore.
And it was basically the only way I could’ve survived :P
really weird that the ai just doesn't know about strat bombing
The Japan thing happens because denmark declared war on germany and japan had a guaranty on germany so japan was dragged into the war
DAmn, that's it!
nope, japan has a focus which just does that
yeah, but in historical they dont use it@@gamesmile1440

The game ended because it was 1948 or later. It lets you finish your war first

most underrated hoi4 youtuber
Looking forward to the next one
13:53 that did happen in the last days of ww2
Jo why is there MP in your infantry divisions?
It made them stronger :(
U could try use paras a the start and take there supply and then use ur puppets research tp get new techs
Indeed, definitely could’ve cheesed the whole thing, but I wanted to be legitimate about everything!
Now do this but for the US :)

What Have You Done
When you use your strat bombers you specify railroads, how do you do that? Is there a way to do it that i dont know?
There's a little button at the top when selecting strat bombing for the planes, that if you click, it opens up a selection window to select what to prioritize for bombing :)
Wait couldn't you theoretically get license production from Mongolia tanu tuva and the allies?
Indeed, that could have been a good way to cheese it, but wanted to stay close to the heart of the challenge :)
@@Aldrahill fair enough but licenses have their own draw back because isn't it the further in tech the more it cost extra to produce? And with no production research it'd be a harsh trade off
Shouldn’t you be able to steal technologies trough the agency?
True, but I felt that would be cheating
you could have done licensed production.
why did you put military police on your infantry 💀💀💀
it literally doesn't do anything and costs equipment and makes your division weaker
put it on your garrison or just don't bother at all
It actually helped with org regain rate!
I'm waiting for the US edition
How did you get MP, wanna try myself. I dont see it
What do you mean? I just started with military police :)
Why didnt you use license production to get better equipment when you cant reaserch yourself
Felt like cheating a bit!

Why didn't you win the spanish civil war for the puppet?
