ISP when you get to the field marshal achievement, I’d recommend doing it and the By Merit Alone achievement at the same time if you don’t have it. Saves a lot of grinding, can easily get it by killing wave after wave of Japanese naval invasions
I got the sun tzu reborn back in the day by grinding out mao as a general and then promoting him, and I don't really want to do that all over again for a unit commander if I'm being honest
The best way to get the Sun Tzu achievement is to just grind a general to level 9 and then promote them to field marshal. Obviously a career officer or a really high level general is best. I don't think i've ever had a level 9 field marshal without doing this.
The new soviet focustree is huge, and you still have two focus that gives you some useless forts around Moscow and somewhere else. Both of them 70 days. Its pain.
By far, the worst part about Iron Man mode is that you can't save manually. Imagine getting halfway through a month of intense micro, then you have to get off. As a grown ass man, saying "wait, I can't save my game" doesn't fly when the wife starts throwing dinner at you.
I just expect that whenever ISP says "in hearts of iron 4" I just expect him to say "A to Z" right after. I can only imagine the trauma he must experience because of this.
Xibei San Ma with border conflict spam is actually very good because you got a ton of neighbours also you can cut off the Japanese from having a land connection with China by doing a border war for beijing
You should definitely check a mod that recently came out called Ultimate Greece rework. It pretty much gives Greece the focus tree that it should have had when the DLC for that nation came out.
I can't be the only one that actually prefers non-historical focus paths. Every successful campaign I've ever had was on non-historical with the exception of one, and somehow even on that one I managed to get Poland to accept my demands, and Britain to sign off on Both Czechoslovakia, and Yugoslavia. So it was "historical".
Allied AI needs a huge rework. Played as the Soviet's and survived until 1945 when I quit. England and America had 30 divisions each on tiny pacific islands and garrisoned every tile in North Africa with 5 divisions per tile. Never D-Day'd
I think I've heard a slight disappointment in ISP's voice when the Soviets have capitulated and the Allies didn't turned it into a mess of nonsensical OPMs
“Why are you scared to hit the Ironman button” Welp, for some bizarre reason if I play w/o it, I can accomplish pretty much anything. HOWEVER, when I start achievement hunting, my brain loses all ability to play this game. This sucks big time.
oh God I love the pdox ai sometimes, and sometimes they're my worst enemy and a thorn in my side. IE my latest vick3 game where the ottomans took the yue province of China, lost it, but triggered the heavenly mandate revolt. all before 1845
I guess you didn't get the lvl 9 field marshall, well, I did it recently with Mao china, I just declared war on everyone in 1936 and surrounded my capital with forts, it still took till 1957, yes 57, to get the general to lvl 9 and promote it to field marshall
I never played Ironman until the last DLC came out ~ 5,000 or so hours into it. This is because I play with mods almost exclusively, and when the DLC came out they obviously all break. So I figured why not? It's fine I guess.
It would be real funny if someone cross checked to see how many achievements are possible in a single run, and then pester isorrow for a decade or two...meanwhile in the year 2329...isorrow has acheived a lasting peace...
Bro, the PRC united mainland China in 1949, you are even slower than real life Chinese unification, XD. But also you have Taiwan, so you have more of China than the PRC.
I don't get any dopamine from achievements, sadly. In fact, watching HOI4 youtubers try and do them just makes them look like suffering, so I never consider clicking the ironman button.
My man just blueballed us by not showing how Wang Dong has grown as a general at the end of the war :(

iSorrow continues to go down the rabbit hole of Hoi4 achievements as he slowly, but surely, loses whatever is left of his sanity.
Nah he ran out of that a while ago, these days he loses other people's sanity
HoI 4 Focus: Add 1 land fort on territory you don't own
Also Hoi 4 focus: 70 days
Before NSB, Poland had a focus that gives 1 (one) level of infrastructure to 1 (one) state. For 70 days.
well they had to convince the japanese to allow them to build it
The new soviet focustree is huge, and you still have two focus that gives you some useless forts around Moscow and somewhere else. Both of them 70 days. Its pain.
@@gregorgerzson1767 You dont have to do them tho
@@CarbonMonoxide798 Its. A. Pain. Because Germany OP af, and soviet is nerfed hard so you really need those forts...
12:52 but ISP, you not only just predicted it, you also predicted us saying you predicted it.
Not only you unified china late
But you also manage to unified the territory of the previous qing empire under you

Huey Long arty only, and then release Tannu Tuva as a playable and get a world conquest with them.

I did a very similar playthrough a while ago. Japan just gave me most of China in the peace deal. Japanese are friends, not food❤
But Chinese are food if you try hard enough

The ironman button is scary because Paradox likes to grey out buttons

l think one achievement l have is The Watcher- to obtain it binge on ISP vids on an unhealthy basis.
14:25 Considering they still aren't unified to this day, I'd say 1951 is pretty damm early...
I think I like watching you get achievements because I know I'd never be able to nor want to get them myself.
ISP never fails to make me smile 😁 Thanks for all and continue with your amazing work 👍
I’ve watched every isp video for the past 7 or so years and I feel like he’s just making videos to make videos and we’re just watching to watch.
My greatest achievement is, that I've never once played HOI4.... Took almost no effort and is the most satisfying feeling
don't start, don't
im sorry but unifying china in 1951 is pretty fucking historical
That China looks really funky. You sorta have Qing borders but there’s some slight differences that make it a bit cursed

This video. This is the opposite of a guide.
and I'm here for it. That was fun to watch.
You should definitely check a mod that recently came out called Ultimate Greece rework. It pretty much gives Greece the focus tree that it should have had when the DLC for that nation came out.

I like how Italy lost east Africa and Sardinia and decided to take Norway in response
Honestly, I only play in Ironman when a new update comes out and prevents me from playing mods (read: Kaiserreich).

Technically, the slowest possible Chinese unification is the irl one, which isn't done yet, 70 years later...

This is one of the best Drew Durnil videos I've ever seen.
Once you turn off historical focuses, you can never go back.
Yeah ISP I haven’t even gotten past the tutorial of the game, glad to know how to get these hard achievements!

Oh boy. I sure do love watching ISP destroy his braincells for the 17859th time this year trying to get the achievements!!
Italy losing Ethiopia but taking Norway will never make sense

It's less that the ironman button is scary and more that base hoi4 is unfun. Hope this helps! :)

mao also had to play until 1950s to unify china in his run
Hey at least you unified China faster than irl China

Do the Pizza Time achievement sometime. The weirdest achievement I actually got completely without trying.
funny thing i started playing iron man and can say it's liek a brand new game with out mods lol and i have been having a blast with it
