Since the Soviet focus gives them an intelligence mission in Mexico maybe you could prevent Trotsky's assassination by just maxing out passive defense and putting all your spies on counterintelligence.
It's true. Trotsky stopped getting assassinated whenever I remembered to stack agency defence. If you get it high enough they don't even bother trying.
It works, they use spies to murder trotsky. Passive defense + spies on counter. Still chance for him to die, because paradox loves roling dice if you get fucked in the ass
@@TruePolishGuy Huey Long is an American historical figure who basically turned the state of Louisiana into a mini dictatorship. He's commonly referred to as a benevolent dictator, but he also brought hella corruption that the state is still sorting through. Very much a political strongman. He's in like, all alt history mods in Hoi4 for the American south as a leader because some people over idolize him.
My first ISP video was when you did the Huge-oslavia achievement way back when, so I genuinely look forward to when you get to playing for the Yugoslavia achievements during this Achievements-to-Z series! Keep up the great content!
dude, dude, i did this with all dlc, its possible, ussr will try to do the kill trotsky spy mission always, you have to catch the soviet spy or prevent the AI from putting any spies in your country by maxing passive defense and having some spy with counterintelligence trait at home in the counterintelligence mission, being at war with the ussr might also help to target the soviet spies, go into your intelligence tab and take a look at your country shield, if its green then there is no soviet spy doing any missions there, ive gone past 1945 with trotsky still alive so its definitely possible
ISP videos are always strange to watch for me, because my name is really Timmy and i'm always covered in gravy. I'm also a cool guy and have hit the like button.
ISP can you play as austria because theres a new strat for austria since blood alone where you can survive the anschluss because of the unpassable alps, you also would have to do a agency and boost ideology in hungary for non aligned so they dont join the axis. i would really like to see you try that
holy sh*t i clicked on the video on accident and the first thing i hear is "Hello gravy timmy! you sure do look good in you creeper-" and i played it again "Hello gravy timmy! you sure do look good in you creeper t-shirt and cargo pants" im just glad it wasnt underwear cause i was freaking out
I got here by searching up "unhinged focus trees." Hoi4 is that game where either something plausible and grounded in reality happens, or Germany decides to declare itself the HRE for some reason. Or Spanish anarchists somehow create a fighting force to dominate the Earth. Or Italy tries to restore the Roman Empir- oh wait that happened.
9:07 How I imagine that bit of diplomacy went: "Camarada Stalin, it's been a few years, but we've successfully struck down the beast of Capitalist Imperialism once and for all! Perhaps you'd like some assistance against the beast of Fascist Imperialism, now that we can bring our army to bear?" Stalin: "...this is the last time I'm going to explain this. I'm not cooperating with your government as long as you keep sheltering that annoying nerd!" "Oh, mia culpa, I meant to mention. That annoying nerd was touring the front in Arizona when he slipped off a cliff face and broke his neck. He's gone now." Stalin: "Gone gone?" "Gone gone." Stalin: "...alright. Let's make Lenin proud, товарищ."
All of central and south America are guaranteed by the US. That means they can't side with either party if they get into a fight. That focus about the Monroe Doctrine isn't required for this very normal and not US-specific mechanic.
9:26 crappy subs are pretty good at sinking ships if you cram enough trops in them. I sunk the British pride of the fleet (I think I was the Hood) off the Horn of Africa with raiding Italian subs
The Soviets have two missions to asassinate Trotsky, and the bug is that they can be repeated indefinitely. I had the soviets nearly capped and they got him on me.
It was That bad in the beginning that I will put a like, just because I don't really want to hear ISP checking my drip through frontal camera ever again
Hey ISP, can I suggest a prequel to Nostalgia November? I would call it "Schizophrenia September", the gist of it is doing everything schizo for example catholic poland and Texan Kaiserreich in Kaiserreich, revisiting Red Flood etc.

Even with Trotsky in power the Soviet Union will join your faction using "the 4th international" Focus
Buggy
@@Hobbyrepubliken the paradox special
that's not lore friendly. and isp will not tolerate it.
USSR literally hunted down Trotsky.
USA is also in Fifth International btw in real life.

@@Wm7forthewin yeah, I watched this already
4:42 it’s because if a nation guarantees two nations that then go to war they can’t join said war

I have to put the Minecraft shirt on again because I always take off all my cloths while watching HOI4 videos
Some people say that HOI4 is hard but you get hard at HOI4
Isorrow pumping out videos like crazy atm!
Aren’t you the guy who started the (bruh these polish people) and if you are then, hello
I wanted to see more of the second and third playthoughs tbh. Greatly entertaining
Omg dude....this video was hilarious...then you did Mexico over....and over. I can't even lol
I have a fever, and the only prescription is Alf Landon playthrough.
thank you ISP, I've been working hard on my wardrobe as of late
Ngl my little cousin got hella scared when ISP said and your little Minecraft creeper shirt since he was wearing one

As the Mexicans say “cringay” 😂

The Soviets have two missions to asassinate Trotsky, and the bug is that they can be repeated indefinitely. I had the soviets nearly capped and they got him on me.
And I suspect that there may be a mod on the Workshop that fixes it...
"I have done nothing but build submarines for three years!"
iSorrowproductions plays as himself in funny map game
I'm not sure but it seems the Soviets will always assassinate trotsky at the beginning of 1942
You sound like Stewie Griffin if he was an adult
the Specter of Mountain general still haunts these lands today
0:20 I love a good parasocial relationship
ISP knows what to do in south america because he suffered in south america for doing the A to Z challenge.
He's joking of course, he will play as mexico again, in the far future.
Release the ISP cut of the Mexico trilogy! We want the raw footage ft. ISorrow having a breakdown!
ZOOMY BOI IN MY FAVORITE GAME!? srsly ww2 game mentioning teeny 1800s narrow gauge steam engines greatly satisfies my inner train nerd.
Really close there, but it's my "Mumbo Jumbo for Mayor" Tshirt and cargo shorts.

Perhaps you would have been able to save Trotsky's life if you had promptly passed a law banning the sale and free possession of climbing equipment.
“A lot of people complain about the wacky paths”
those people don’t count, they’re not people

17:40 WTF?! What’s is with the Third Mexico game????
I have no idea how to play this game or what is going on but I watch you play it every night before bed.
I humbly demand you to get all achievements.
I think he's already doing that
Yo know it's going to be tourture for ISP when he uploads
I've tried this achievement twice, and both times Stalin has managed to kill Trotsky, even when he's my country's leader. 😢
So, what cameras you got up to know my drip? I'm very concerned
you can hear the same pain in his voice that i felt last weekend
the end got me, nice work :D
Jokes on you I’m not wearing any clothes watching this video
My favorite part of Mexico is the fact they are a stronger nation than Denmark
uh isp are you in my walls how did you guess my attire uhhh time to drill into my walls
As an ANZAC soldier,I can confirm me and my emu boys and also my kiwi mates invaded ALABAMA

I once played as stalin and killed Trotsky. Twice. I launched the two missions and both were successful.
Thanks for another amazing video ISP
Norfolk, Virginia. The Mexican submarine capitol of the world.
I definitively subscribed and liked after you said such nice things.
I am now expecting more nice things on your next video.
POV: Germany recalls Mexico to declare war on USA to distract them
"Cringay" killed me
09:22 - Are we not going to talk about how a German nationalist (Dönitz was AFAIK not an actual nazi) is commanding a communist Mexican force? :D

My Minecraft creeper shirt is in the washer. I sit here with my WWE John Cena shirt. U can't see it.
What if we're playing a mod like Kaiser Redux? I want to give Liberia naval supremacy.

Ah yes. The lagoon of swines. Where Mexican forces invaded cuba.
