This reminds me of that Hitler quote where he saw the advancing Red Army on Berlin, and he said "their hearts are made of Iron", then he looked into the camera
I had the same thoughts. But I am currently unsure wich continent would work best. Eques would be nice since you have more canon nations. But on the other hand Grifonia could work better since you have more equally strong nations. So the reply value could be higher. Both continents is probably a bit to much.
QUESTION! Can you do a world conquest as Luxembourg in the board game? If so, I'll take your entire stock, and finance the manufacturing of more copies so that I can buy those too!
if luxembourg is a playing nation then yes since there is a mode where all nations start off in the same playing field. At least that's what I've seen from another video based on the board game.
Ah yes, the Hearts of Iron board game-because nothing says 'fun' like turning 12 hours of virtual misery into a tabletop argument with your friends. Truly, the gift that keeps on giving... regret
I assume they’ll use a simplified combat system, enriched by other mechanics only made possible by the board game format (such as the social experience of being sat around a table with others, and looking them in the eye as you puppet them and force them to fight russia on their own)
The only thing that I don’t like it’s the absence of the fucking North Africa. What Italy is supposed to do with his navy? Are Malta and Gibilterra on the map a real threat?
I just noticed that. They have almost all of Scandinavia and no North Africa? Whose idea was that? They should have just cut out all of Sweden/Finland besides Helsinki / South Karelia and made the map extend to Marrakesh and Baghdad. There is totally space even without warping anything.
I just got Axis & Allies 1942 2nd edition for Christmas. Now I will have to explain why I have to order this game as well even tho my parents will think its the exact same XD
I hope there will one day be a version for the tabletop simulator video game of this. Maybe it's even possible as an official add-on as has been done before with other tabletop games.
me: takes this to a games day on school (we have that sometimes) my entire class: Aw hel no my friends: i thougt you played fortnite me: *shows my diferent side*
This actually seems so cool. Imagine you are sitting on a desk,looking at a map and trying to conquer the entire Europe. Whoever came up with this idea is a genius
This board game gives me vibes that at some point, the table will look like the scene in the Fuhrerbunker in the downfall where Hitler has a breakdown lmao
What this kinds remjnds me is a combination of a few other board games put together. Axis and allies for the ww2 setting, war room for the simultaneous play and diplomacy which also has simultaneous play but that more aligns with the ability to use politics to align with other nations to form allies and rewrite history. Honestly its a cool idea overall. Assuming this does well. Hopefully well see other expansions in the future that can do the pacific for example.
Bold of PDX to assume hoi4 players have friends to play this with
They do

Frens? 🤔
Remember paradox you cannot patch a board game
Yes you can, that's what FAQ and errata are for!
I will only say 'The Settlers of Catan' and its twenty million expansions.
Well, they don't patch the video game either
But you can release dlc for one
ahem...warhammer.
How many DLC will this board game have?
Paradox should learn to make complete games at launch
@@Simo-pk6dc Capitalism at its finest.
i suppose the rest of the map will be the first ones to drop
crusader kings had one so i guess same here the one for the pacific
Asia, North America, South America, Oceania and Africa
Can't wait for the "By Friends Alone" boardgame expansion pack
Don't forget about Alone for victory dlc
@@hendrajokomaraspati you cant afford to buy a DLC lmao
bro forgot the 'no step forward' expansion
@RordonGramsay and the "no resistance" expansion
This reminds me of that Hitler quote where he saw the advancing Red Army on Berlin, and he said "their hearts are made of Iron", then he looked into the camera
And then the credits rolled in and music started playing
*plays what i've done*
Send me a link to the video, i need to see that lol
And then he Hearted all over my Iron
I need to SEE that
The box should come with fake grass to touch
at least the creators are aware of their playerbase to heart this comment.
@@mrun-gamer9008 You think the HoI4 devs and boardgame creators are any different from their playerbase? 95% are nerds there as well, I'd wager ;)
Touching grass? you mean plains provinces? Yeah I like those they make my tanks go vrooom
@@luanandreashahahahah
Can’t wait for the Equestria at War fan expansion pack

If a person takes that on a picnic, they can literally touch the grass while playing HOI. Wow.
What a perfect first date! Go to a park, open a bottle of wine and treat your first time date to a lovely board game session!
@Kim_Jong-un1356 yeah, this idea would be better if there were actually girls in HOI funbase. But I don't mind a date with my HOI bro
@@vladimirvorobyev1683 there are 🫵
And I would love a date playing HOI 🤣
That would assume that hoi4 players can get partners 😢
Can I buy the Friends Expansion Pack?
You have to complete touch grass branch in your life focus tree
You know you play too much HOI4 when you call your goals Focus trees 😂😂 😶
I do too.

Hope this will be digitally released so you can play alone on your computer! 🥰
You already can its 44€ on steam and its called hearts of iron 4
waiting for the Tabletop Simulator edition
Im gonna hold your balls when i say this
@@Sickgamer-iz2oc that's the joke
does the game come with friends? or do I buy those seperately
You know how paradox is. Separate dlc for each one
You can't buy friends, you have to rent them. Presumably through subscription.
I dont understand how such a complex game as hoi4 can be fit into a board game
I assume they’ll use a simplified combat system, enriched by other mechanics only made possible by the board game format (such as the social experience of being sat around a table with others, and looking them in the eye as you puppet them and force them to fight russia on their own)
every move gona cost 20 euro dlc s be ready!
There's only one way to find out... ;)
its like risk with more cosmetics
The question is why?
As both a HOI4-player and an Axis and Allies-player, this board game is truly an interesting concept that I will certainly look into
Same
Same. Could be either absolutely amazing or completely redundant.
Make no mistake, this board game was made for the devs a PDX to play amongst themselves.
PDX consumers do not have friends.
Cant wait to play kaiserreich and tno with that one
Tno should release a choose your own adventure book
Is this spoiling something 🤨
We only need a victoria 3 boardgame to have a mega campaign(board game edition)
Vic 3 board game will have a psychopath fan base with all the economy
Cant wait for an anime mod
That would be really cool

Hmm we got HOI board game before world war 3, very interesting!
Made of 100% real boards, so you know it's authentic!
Nah you shittin’ me, we gettin’ Risk + before GTA VI
I can't wait to still not know how to play navy
Can't wait to spend 70 days staring at each other while our focuses complete
No wayy! My dream came true! Finally I can introduce my friends into the game! Thx so much!
A pxd player with friends? unheard of!

Maybe play Albania in the board game

half of albania is Greek land
I just got Axis & Allies 1942 2nd edition for Christmas. Now I will have to explain why I have to order this game as well even tho my parents will think its the exact same XD
We have Axis and Allies at home.
Axis and Allies at home:
I previously made a similar board game to this so that me and other hoi4 players in my school could play with each other lol
*"Rest of the map is going to be DLCs..."*
you have to buy extra boards to attach to the main one
Will this also lead to a lifetime of debt to purchace?
PDX sure is competing with Creative Assembly. We have Rome Total War now we are getting this.
Now we're also waiting for the mods 😂
I hope there will one day be a version for the tabletop simulator video game of this. Maybe it's even possible as an official add-on as has been done before with other tabletop games.
me: takes this to a games day on school (we have that sometimes)
my entire class: Aw hel no
my friends: i thougt you played fortnite
me: *shows my diferent side*
This actually looks really fun
Right?!
Next from Paradox: the video game version of the board game we all love, HOI4 online!
This actually seems so cool. Imagine you are sitting on a desk,looking at a map and trying to conquer the entire Europe. Whoever came up with this idea is a genius
Cant wait for the Kaiserredux version
Ayo new merch update 🔥🔥
After plushes, the board game
Is there a computer version of this board game?
Yeah, it's called Hearts of Iron IV ;)
Havent been this excited about a ww2 board gane since axis and allies!
Where is Luxemburgo?
Watch people do Redflood, Kaiser, the Great War, Equestria at War and the modern Era versions of this
Tgis just "The Campaign for North Africa: The Desert War 1940-43" but sinple right
take my money paradox. JUST TAKE MY MONEY
I wonder how this will hold up against games like Axis and Allies. the finish in an evening would be nice tho
I hope that the entry threshold will be easier than in the game itself.
I can finally share the burden of managing the Navy with my family
if i bring this to the family gathering they'll fucking hate me
How did paradox know that I just got into board games? You cheeky devs.
This board game gives me vibes that at some point, the table will look like the scene in the Fuhrerbunker in the downfall where Hitler has a breakdown lmao
*Naval landing sound*
Cant' wait for the 22 extensions. costing as much as the game, with features that should've been in the game in the first place!!!
This is gonna cause so many fights
yo im excited for this no wayyyy ive always needed a board game like this
This literally sounds like the Board Game of my dreams.
Best strategy tabletop I've ever seen
very interesting!
Okay I love board games, take my money... ( again for like the 20th time)
Will this have modding support?
Imagine trying to learn navy on this
should i get this or the plague inc board game?
It’s hilarious that Paradox thinks we have 4 friends to play this with
Can’t wait for the Tabletop Simulator port!
What this kinds remjnds me is a combination of a few other board games put together.
Axis and allies for the ww2 setting, war room for the simultaneous play and diplomacy which also has simultaneous play but that more aligns with the ability to use politics to align with other nations to form allies and rewrite history.

kaiserreich board game next?
Me: I'll take your entire stock
can't wait for the DLCs to release new focus trees for those that don't already have them
Will there be a single player mode? Or I will have to buy "Friends" DLC too?
Very interesting, would love a console version of HOI4 eventually
We have Hoi4 board game before GTA6
can’t wait for the “Goddamnitimalone” DLC
This gonna be fun for the dorm game nights!
No chance you can play this in one session. Guarantee this plays into multiple sessions lmao
So Paradox is going after the "Campaign for North Africa: The Desert War (1940-1943)" fanbase.
I assume the instruction booklet gets delivered separately by a moving company.
Fingers crossed for a Table Top Simulator Mod. Hopefully an official one.
Finaly the 9 year olds can play hoi4 with out being on hoi4
finally, as competitor for Axis and Allies!
Well this is something I never expected. As a board gamer I’ll keep an eye out.
no way we got a competitor to axis and allies before gta6 💀
99.9% of my gaming time I have to play alone.
what are the achievements in this new game?
I hope you have more than one type of ship in the game.. all I see is a battleship.
Carriers? Cruisers? Destroyers? Subs? Transports?
Finally, a good WW2 board game! I thought I'd play campaign for North Africa till I'm on my death bed...
Can’t wait for the 79 day focusses
Can’t wait to see what DLC will come out for the board game
The one thing holding this back is the literal game itself on pc where you could do more. But yeah, it’s hard sell it’s a short mini campaign
So... Risk with extra steps?
Can’t wait to get/win this game, hopefully to make a paradox board game mega campaign with Europa Universalis the Price of Power and Victoria!
We got a Board Game Port of HOI4 before Console Ports 💀
