Wouldn't it be funny if you would do this but with artillery? Hehe, just imagine
how bout antitank only
E
@@EEEEEEEE E
Dont put more people in a psychiatric hospital evil man
Flamentank only
Ah so just the way I normally play
Agreed
E
Me 🤝 Shitty infantry Template 🤝 Console commands
Nothing says good strategy like force attacking with 100 divisions from 1 tile with no supply
HA! I give my horrible infantry 1 support artillery and 1 engineer. It doesn't change anything, but it makes me feel smart
-Infantry Only Challenge!
-Chooses Soviet Union
-"Challenge"
Nationalist China with GP right path. Unstoppable infantry.
That'd be China
"Challenge"
Infinite manpower
1 unit world conquest, should be easy for ISP when legit burger did it lol
Shut up
The first mistake was thinking ISP was going to do an actually hard challenge, even this one was cheesed by using nukes. It doesnt matter what units you use if you can just nuke the enemy divisions until they have no equipment and organization.
ARTILLERY ONLY WHEN?????
AA ONLY
AT ONLY
ROCKET ARTILLERY ONLY AS TANNA TUVA
@@johndudesmen48☠️
AT ONLY AS ECUADOR
"This is Tannu Tuva speaking. You need to help our war effort by getting occupied by Germany, giving them access to all of your vital natural resources."
"Yes."
A Tannu Tuvan is speaking
Listen and learn
Nice job pdx the continuation war starts even though there was no winter war and no reason for the finns to be vengeful for having their land taken
because the ussr simply existing isn't enough to justify a war for the finns?
the kola peninsula is RIGHTFULLY FINNISH CLAY
@@AngryFrenchPenguinbut it’s not a continuation of anything
It could be continuation of the Finnish Civil War - get the reds hiding in Russia
@@Theindianapatriotcontinuation of a dramatic bar fight that got out of control
Special forces only. Play as Britain and for your land units you can only build Rangers, Marines, Mountaineers, and paratroopers. Navy and Airforce allowed.
I feel like the special forces cap would make this impossible. You literally can't train more special forces than a certain % of your full army last I checked.
@@deltainfinium869I think in that case using a mod is acceptable.
@@deltainfinium869 well, he could use the 1 brigade trick, deploy a crapton of them, switch all of them to 40 width, deploy all his special force then disband the 40width.
@@deltainfinium869not really, shared instructors from the mountaineers doctrine would make the cap so high it would no longer matter there being a cap. 20% capacity multiplier kinda a lot.
How about mountaineers only as the Swiss?
imagine if he did it with that cannon thing.. i cant put my finger on it.. perhaps a sneaky rat too
E
Rat artillery?
Rodent railguns are too op, glad they removed them
Yes, the rodent railway artillery was OP because it was stronger than a nuke and you didn't need air superiority to use them. I don't remember if it was a late game tech?
@@Anders_Lund thats the one
Only paratroopers. you have infantry to hold but the only way you can push is with paratroopers. Only planes you can use is fighters to get air superiority and transports of course.
Or you could pull the strat where you can only paradrop on victory points
He did this 6 years ago
He did half of these new videos six years ago. He's on a SpongeBob-esque content rotation. Can't say I blame him though, there's only so much you can do in one game@@snowhusky6689
heres a challenge for you:
bring out the rat!!!

Hearts of Iron 4 average USSR game edition
Hearts of Iron 4 normal gameplay addition

I’ve done it before. It is absolutely glorious
ISP "Can You Beat Hearts Of Iron IV With ONLY Infantry? "
Me having over 3000 hours in game and while literally never designing a tank and only crafting one mechanized unit during 8+ years of playing "Probably yes..."
ISP "No plains and only guns in infantry"

Planes* not Plains
underrated commit
@@capiscrazy9732what are you going to commit
hello everyone this is taureor
he calls this a challenge, i call this a regular hoi4 game
Alf Landon Anti Tank only
Little you know that AT have nukes
5:29 sir Stalin, two hundreds units are ready and a million are on the way.
Exactly what I was thinking
What’s funny is that guns only will destroy max buffed Germany on elite difficulty too.. in 1943 no less. The way to do this is to always be grinding them down as long as you have guns in stockpile. The more you grind their manpower, the better it will be. By 1943 I got the germans down to 20m casualties and back to Berlin. I took about 30m casualties
14:27 Aha I see you are doing the Belkan (ace combat zero) strategy of NUKING YOUR OWN BORDER
Nukes in Hoi4 aren't like real life radiation isn't really a thing
they cant invade us if there's nothing to invade
this is how I used to play HOI4.
Now I only produce motorised and light tanks
Alright, real challenge time, Cavalry only Italy. No air, no boats, just horses!
The alt universe where the PPS-43 was more widely-produced than the AKM lol
Average taureor playthrough
Here’s a difficult challenge play as Germany in Kaiserreich but set every country that can to go socialist/ align with the third international and win the second weltkrieg
Perhaps you might go for this challenge. Your units can’t be more then 10 width. You may use what you want but must be 10 width max. For extra fun, no CAS as well.
YOUVE HEARD OF SPACE MARINE BUILDS? NOW INTRODUCING IMPERIAL GUARD BUILDS!
here’s your next challenge:
Bring back the rat
As yes, the challenge of playing like Taureor
From the inventors of The Iron Courtain comes: The Bullet Courtain
And well, then the last bit of the trilogy we tend to not speak about: The Molten Iron Courtain
Enemy planes can't hurt you if your entire army is made up out of anti-aircraft guns.
they also give 75% air superiority for nukes
@@ac4694Don't you need to provide 75% air superiority at the place where you want to drop a nuke? It does not seem ideal for the people crewing the AA guns.
@@poilboiler no, as showed in video AA drops nukes
only armored car, when? 🗣️💯🔥
I like how you flipped turkey to prevent.a war with the allies, only for turkey to still start a war with the allies
Wow what a cool concept, i wonder if something similar would be possible with artillery!
"Let's not talk about the ethical question of me creating a nuclear barrier on my own land."
-Belka, 1995
ISP: “It’s also pretty painful”
Me, who basically only spams infantry for the entire game:
Another Challenge: maximum casualities! You don't want to win a war, you destroy their manpower, i.e. holding frontlines, just encirceling, dropping nuxes.
So war crimes💀
WOW that challenge sure was hard! it looked _totally_ insane... but do you know what would be even more challenging? playing *Hearts of Iron 3* (seriously ISP why no HOI3 on the channel???)
1946, Special Purpose School near Moscow, bulletin board in the main building - "Don't miss out on todays free admitance lecture at the main hall , presented by Alexander Radó : "Infamous turkish prison - the myth , the legend , the experience" "
I'd honestly like to see more unique plays like this, also, Sweden held on the whole time...
Huh
The way to really do this is to make a jagged line so that the enemy frontline is as thin as possible, while you still have 5+ infantry divisions per tile!
Somebody say something controversial so that ISP gets more attention. WE NEED ALF LANDON
As infantry main on every country using maybe planes that game already gave me at the start, im very happy to see this video
I just started watching you and i like this chanel 👍🏼
“How do I have Turkish artillery?”
That one guy who got captured by Turkey 12 times: “You would NOT believe how intense these escape plans are needing to get 😐”
Horse only, but as Egypt, and you have to control all territories of the ilkhanate by the end of the game
Special Forces Only would be kinda neat to see, especially with the latest updates. Doesn't mean you can't make any regular infantry, you just can't use them. *Air would be allowed as well to enable paratrooper usage.
Always a good day when a new ISP video pops up in your feed
How about playing without using any military factories and just get equipment from the market, lend lease, decisions, etc
Nice, actually winning this, finishing what curt who games started but sadly failed
At this point its been so long that the alf landon episode seems hype
ISP video on my birthday? Hell yeah!
Can you beat hoi4 with only, ARTILLERY
I wonder if there are any other Og viewers who remember where did the intro “hello gravy babies” actually came from.
It came years before I don’t remember the exact video but ISP saw a video of faze banks and he sounded like he said “gravy babies” so he took it as an intro, so yea that’s where the intro came from I don’t know if ISP even remembers at this point 😅
Challenge: Play as italy but use only the Blackshirt divisions, the camicie nere ones, and try to reform Rome.
For isp its a challenge. For taureor its a way of life
everyone screaming artillery while I'm over here with airplanes only. really subject you to the whims of the AI and forcing you to make friends.
oh and navy because.
Well because.
Can't wait for the alf landon playthrough. It would be even funnier if the USA had an electoral college in hoi4 and you had to campaign and stuff because fun fact:
Alf Landon in our timeline won *eight* electoral votes
Taureor be like: is there anything else??
would been cool if you had done this challenge with the infantry equipment designer mod yk
I'd suggest marine-italy: you can only fight on a frontline, thats open by your marines. This way you'd have to focus on navy, planes and you'd need to escape the mediterrainian sea to be useful and probably need to fight turkey.
You should do a playthrough where you can't produce anything you have to buy all your equipment from the market
Build a op Germany and when Barbarossa happens switch to the Soviets
AA? "Anti Air" *Artillery*!? Illegal!!!
As good ol' Stalin always said
"The real power comes out of a long rifle"
Hyped for Alphonse Landon
thanks isp i love u
Easiest challenge, hell, you don't even need guns if you have enough people
Just convert that tiny battalion to a chonky one
They might not have guns, but the AI won't push you either, so... (You can actually push sometimes, don't ask me how though, I guess fist beats guns and tanks)
Although the late game always becomes a nukefest with the AI stacked divisions
I mean, you could naval invade, It's not like every coastal province will be defended at once
Although guns help, like, to the point where you can beat any natio, just ignore the casualties and grind on!
Hoi but you’re not allowed to increase conscription or economy, can’t let the civilian lives get ruined
"It is what it is...", Stalin, November 1941.
I have a diabolical suggestion:
Instead of world conquest: World Liberation.
You have to free every territory on earth. You may play as any nation you want, form alliances, break them, any method is on the table...
EXCEPT: You may not conquer anyone you defeat. You can puppet them, but you can't hold them.
Which means, you can't just play it like World Conquest and then release all the states at the end.
You gotta juggle them all until every territory capable of independance is independent... lastly, including your own.
Obviously, releasing your own territories is last priority, but puppeting should be enough to get you the resources and control you need to guarantee the correct outcome.
Great war tank only would be interesting
Return to tradition, French Cuirassiers (cavalry) only!
So in this episode he demonstrates the power of a proper rolling thunder tactic… except instead of artillery and a battle, he has used nukes and the entire war.
Still gonna just request the Pony mod, everyone must suffer.
He did that one forever ago but that video is gone now
EaW is unironically good tho
Stop threatening me with Alph Landon!
I'm sure he could do an AA only game
This is the equivalent of seeing a man stand at the beaches of Normany, shooting directly into the sands, hoping to break the back of the German war machine
What about nothing only challenge? As the USA, don't have any active units or planes. You can lend lease your allies and give them garrison support. (Idk if you did this one but I just think this would be hilarious. I call it the drew durnil challenge.)
This is basically all of my runs because I find designing tanks and tank templates really stupid
its 8 am right now and im laying on my bed and this is already the perfect video to watch while i try to fix my broken sleep schedule
edit: also only arty when???
Super heavy only: super heavy tanks, super heavy battleships, and large airframes. Only catch is no trading for oil or building refineries allowed
Large airframes have to have six engines too.
I can't believe we are only 19k away from the Alf Landon playthrough. It's been so long in the making.
You should do the Sun Ra path as the Black Revolt in Kaiserredux
ISP is willig to sit through the torture that is Artillery only, but playing as Alf Landon is to much.
isn't this how Taureor always plays?
This is just my usual HOI4 playing style 👀🥲
Isorrow doing his best Belkan impersonation.
Legend has it this is where the Helldivers learned how to fight a war
Ofc you can. Thats how i useto world conquest before knowing how tanks work. A lot of people push with jjst inf
I love infantry only, so much fun.
How about RATS ONLY next???
So when is the One Year War playthrough? Upgrading railroads across the entire planet at the same time is such fun!
Challenge: No land troops (only boats and planes).
It might even work if you start as Japan or Cuba or some other island.
can you do a challenge where you play entirely on the defensive until you get super heavy tanks, and then you use divisions with only those tanks in them for any offensive
Sadly, you had fewer casualties than the actual Soviets. 😆
man this is just the napoleonic wars all over again
Even back then artillery was the king of the battlefield
I demand the return of artillery only!
The one with the rifle shoots, the one without the rifle follows him!
This is how I always play; it works.
10:31 got to see that guy fly into battle off the railroad tracks
