HOI4- Bulgaria- Battle For The Bosporus- Live Stream

[Music] so all right guys let's start the live stream here we're back on with pillbox 20. we've got the uh hello pillbox we got the uh dlc that dropped yesterday for many of my european friends and uh i would have liked to have streamed yesterday but it didn't drop for me i'm on the pacific over here in the united states so i feel like i'm the last time zone the only time zone that would have been more delayed was if i was in hawaii yeah i i like the art what i'm trying to figure out here is maybe you can help me out pill boxes what are we looking at uh honestly this seems like alternative history as shown in the trailer uh the third reich is actually trying to invade the balkan countries in the trailer to gain access to the caucasus another assault route to the soviet union and that is basically it the balkan countries are resisting okay it looks like they got some boats going out to the battleships out there and those are bf-110s most likely [Music] okay i thought it might have been flying fortresses in that they would have had to have flown over turkey for a little bit to get to bomb the romanian oil fields but no i i think you're right oh it is germany don't worry it was in the trailer it's all uh proper out history i like uh paradox had a post a few months ago saying i think they had a birthday for heartsvaran4 and they said altering history since 2016. that was their birthday uh logo that's awesome okay so hopefully you guys were able to download the update um in order to download the update i just want to go over this real quick let me see if this will stay on the stream i if you're downloading this from steam you have to right click and then click properties and then go ahead and change your betas to none opt out of all beta programs and then you'll get a download down here and you'll get these extra three flags which will be the dlc so i'm not sure if you could see that it doesn't look like you could see that because i'm on game capture no it doesn't show yeah but you can watch the video i so uh pillbox i did put us on low latency this time so we shouldn't have as much of a delay so that'll be nice yes i think i'm up to date this time i'm not watching stuff from the future excellent the other thing i wanted to try out is tell me if this works do i have to see something you see that gc is now following nice thanks for the follow gc did you get the the sound no there was no sound oh actually no there is no sound okay let me put that all the way back up okay i added an alert box widget so just playing around with that right out well that was interesting that we didn't get sound but i'll uh we'll keep playing around with it well my sound from the stream is muted because uh i'm uh in chat with you so to conflict but there was probably sound maybe the chat can tell prickle said he heard it so so there is a sound okay yeah that's awesome jason okay so as promised we're going to go ahead and [Music] go ahead with bulgaria so let's take a look at the these um bulgaria here boris the third czar unifier war support negative 10 no big deal ideology drift defense 25 daily support for unaligned 0.05 and i'm really liking that aspect because the daily support for unaligned will increase stability so let's see what national focus we have here second national catastrophe so that was on your mod um pillbox and we got stability negative 10 weekly stability 0.3 or support negative 10. so this com we need to modify remove this modifier immediately possible but i only made one run so i think there is a faster way than mine but we'll play it through by the way uh pico man recommend says the sound is a bit loud i think it's on the following sound that you put yeah i've been trying to play with that i couldn't really turn it down so okay i'll turn it down quite a bit and we'll see someone's gonna have to subscribe to to make it proc again i like it and uh subscribe boys or girls they already all are subscribed i have 57 people that are watching i'm pretty sure they're subscribed they must be pretty dedicated to to watch a youtuber on a live stream okay what else we got army restrictions factory output negative 25 dockyard output negative 25 i'm concerned but that needs to probably be removed second and then imro so that this is the macedonian um partisan faction correct [Music] and you've got daily political power gain point negative 0.3 we could deal with that stability negative 10 improve relations opinion negative 15. yeah so because of the mr i cannot say it in english memorial organization uh it was bulgaria had pretty bad image in at least in western europe because they assassinated first of all one of the kings of yugoslavia and secondly a french ambassador there so bulgaria was kind of in a bad light because of that organization yeah i was reading about that earlier so you we can get rid of them or keep them well i kept them but we'll see what happens and by the way the army restrictions it says that you cannot produce aircraft tanks and ships and these restrictions actually work i had researched uh i start with research the interwar fighter and i could not re produce it so for now everything seems to work i could not find any bugs okay good to know so we'll try it on elite mode for our first impressions video so you got to let me use all my tricks man oh i'm not touching your tricks i'm just here to help this is so hilarious it's like so what pillbox in the last stream is like so what are you gonna do for your doctrines and i'm like oh god i can hear the criticism already and you softly say mobile warfare everyone in the chat whoa what are you doing why this is bulgarian no no no you're like trust me guys trust me this is gonna work and it worked it it felt pretty powerful in the chat uh zek or sec i don't know how to pronounce this welcome if this is your first time watching he says that he loves your content thanks sag hello luis lewis good to see you man okay so this this is interesting so we still have the cavalry guy zilkov cavalry attack and defense 15 my goodness we're going we're going mobile warfare unless i see something that yeah we're gonna go mobile warfare you start with uh let's see here zara's puppet i cannot pronounce this name kyocevanov yes he is the same guy from the vanilla game but he has changed the trait which is pretty powerful after you deal with the second national catastrophe because right now he's balancing the stability gain and loss you can see it without him we're gonna lose stability rapidly well i don't want to get rid of him no not yet but if you go historical germany might want you to replace him with someone else well they're probably going to want to replace boris too unfortunately oh no actually i was able to stay with boris for like a lot of years maybe until he dies but i did not stay up that late not this time okay so from what i read read through the bulgaria dev diary what i want to do is go to the right here and then um so you go power to the tsar and then okay which one did you do did you go down the far right over here or did you go down the middle here i went uh can you zoom in oh wait i have the game up and i can read it myself don't worry so i went first power to the tsar because it gives a national spirit which gives us political power and we're gonna need political power and the second focus that's our regime on the second uh as the second focus the more historical path so if we go of course if we go a point right wing minister that looks like that's going to take us fascist and then boris will be removed i don't want to do that it's gonna remove him but remember you have played in my mode for with the monarchy every single time if you want to change it i don't mind now boris is only negative 10 war support we should be able to deal with that we just have to buff our war support some other way so if we can either condemn the macedonians or support them i would suggest to not touch these for uh decision uh foxes at the start because you're gonna want the allies to lift the army restrictions and uh to do that easier you don't need to touch these focuses right now if you touch them they're gonna influence their decision in a bit okay so we'll start with uh power to the czar look at this we got three research slots oh yeah uh before 1939 i actually had five so bulgaria is pretty nice i don't they're saying copy but it's very nice all right that's sophia university okay all mills all the time it looks like we're gonna bottom out though let's see if we have any resources you remember last time what we told you about the civilian economy right it's best to uh do it early right very early it's not all about the civilian factories that you're gonna get because they're not a lot but uh the buffs to construction speed and the industry now we're not gonna get this till october 4th but if i do one mil you can improve the infrastructure to build faster it's true it doesn't have negative modifiers to constructing infrastructure why isn't this giving me okay complete july 4th so you get it like three months earlier uh yeah military factories are cheaper but from what from my gameplay testing you're gonna need civilian factories for uh something special you're gonna send them to germany and they're gonna give you equipment so you need civilian factories okay we'll build three see how it goes that's the safe play because this is the first time you know the one thing that i'm hating already is the fact that my units don't have equipment so basically all these guys are trained this is useless i can't i can't disband the units why can't i disband the units army restrictions jeez okay so we got pop off you cannot even uh change your template which is even more terrible okay markov we got two markov so the son and the father huh maybe i suppose they're part of the same military family and they have a tradition to be in the army in the way of meowv to be honest i see generals that i never expected to see right here and some of my favorites are missing but these that they've added in the game are pretty good man bulgaria must have a lot of generals and most of them were in artillery regiments during the first world war okay this is why we have to go mobile warfare we've got a general that gets cavalry expert right off the bat so you get a 10 attack in defense and then stack that with zilkov cavalry genius you always want to take the geniuses right they're pretty genius okay yeah so there are three uh three levels of uh traits expert specialist and genius every every uh each of them gives different bonuses but yeah there is a hierarchy in the traits okay we gotta see the template before we do our military factories um i mean whatever you do with the with your factories it doesn't matter too much because you have so little uh production from them you have limitations to your industry to your factories to what stuff you can build even and you cannot change your templates this is the weirdest looking template that i've had that i've seen since i saw the french tank division it is the vanilla template for bulgaria they have not changed them what's that luis says we need camels uh paradox actually said uh yesterday on their stream that not only turkey will have camos but the united kingdom france and i believe italy basically every country that has access to the desert will have access to camels that's cool yeah they have bonuses in desert instead of the cavalry heard a lot about that in world war one lawrence of arabia um so yeah louis no no jason yeah we're gonna go pro axis i think it's the only way so we're gonna be the bad guys we're gonna be the good bad guys the best of the uh the best of the bad guys oh man dude we are dude there's no we can't bring we can't do artillery whatsoever so this is like obviously a lateral balancing mechanism because we have excellent cavalry but without artillery that's that's going to really hurt us i mean bulgaria in vanilla does not start with artillery or mountaineers that is something that i added in my mode so at least you start with three research slots so you can research more stuff that you need oh yeah this the decisions bulgarian society and politics are divided into multiple factions with with with which the government will have to deal with among the most relevant are the zveno a nationalist organization founded by army officers the broad socialists social democrats supporting broad-class alliances the agrarian union devoted to the question questions concerning agriculture and the national social movement a far-right organization this for new guys people even with bulgarian knowledge of that time period this system was confusing but uh when you figure it out it makes a lot of sense and i believe it would have been very nice uh if it was for all nations with their respective parties it's pretty nice and then we can refuse the army restrictions here world tension increases by five wow that's quite powerful for this uh nation to be able to do that cost 50 political power um okay so we're gonna need to get ourself into a position where we can get artillery one oh it just you can research it right away uh ciao is welcome uh thanks for coming and have a good night have a good night recommend bulgaria is in an excellent position to become the master of the balkans but we're gonna get there eventually okay so let me lay out my plan for you guys so i'm assuming that this is a demilitarized zone here uh because of some treaty it doesn't matter i hadn't i didn't know about this but i hadn't intended to go that way either um pillbox informed me today that you cannot just march down to athens and then take these uh islands here and then win as you can see there's a dotted line so you cannot capitulate greece uh from mainland greece anymore you have to take crete is that correct pillbox yeah because they have added new uh victory points to the islands and now they have enough to hold out for as long as possible even if they don't have any units anymore they have low stability they can still call their own and not capitulate what makes it kind of makes sense because germany took crete historically in world war ii so now there's a reason why you want to go to crete that was always a big hole in historical germany because i could just capitulate greece just by taking the mainland greece so i'm glad they did that so my plan we go yugoslavia we get access to the jian this is the aegean right okay and then we buddy up with the axis and the italians to give us a naval superiority in order to take crate so we're doing naval invasions i think that's only way like it might not work i mean having to rely on paratroopers necessarily in every game is terrible because mountaineers for greece are much more useful also if you're making navo invasions make sure to research the technology because we don't start with it uh hello it is he has many names but we know he's the same person everyone does man everyone's got a different screen name for discord and youtube and everything else stelios so why is stelius was messaged me he didn't like the dlc why didn't you like the dlc dude share your thoughts without cursing family friendly content here it is it is okay so we'll see how that works and i i think we're up on everything no we could create an agency i think they'll be quite powerful i hold my factories for now later you have plenty of them i mean what are you gonna do with the agents either way right now it all depends since we haven't plotted our course it all depends on when we can go to war with yugoslavia and we need to go to war as soon as possible this army is probably not going to be enough to take them out though i mean if if you think you're limited in my mod this is worse yeah they definitely don't want us to get too strong it looks like until if until feedback gaming finds a two-week this two-week solution to the bulgarian problems i think we're not going to work the first or second year yeah i agree this is how severe it is start this up here so what's nice about this is we you know we know that hungary and romania will go into the axis so we have friends to the north austria will become germany italy wants to take yugoslavia but if i could take it like one year before they do that would be nice i do i have zero expectations of being able to take albania because italy can just force albania to go to their side i mean if you annex them they won't uh be able to give the response to italy to so that it can annex them so if you take it before they do their focus and annex them it's gonna be they can do anything god look at this little tree yeah i don't it's uh it is right here albanian occupation they can get it quite quick so we'll see what happens we'll see how fast we can get into yugoslavia yeah but it is historical they're gonna take their sweet time going through their uh small political focus hey san marino showed up good to see you san marino [Applause] okay power to the tsar and then we're going to go the czar's regime i thought we're going fascist but if so can we go fascist but maintain the czar uh no there is no such thing as in my mode you can go a mixed path and still stay with the tsar i think you have to kick him out eventually and when you change parties he is not staying like in control let's let's stick with boris because he's the main we can fix the stability later and um i would advise regime to go where is it crush the communists that focus because you want to start destroying these parties right here in the decisions and you're only only gonna stay with the national socialist movement because i think they're pro fascist and the others are gonna get in your way they're gonna cause some problems if you don't deal with them they might even try to coop you and succeed you don't deal with them early okay just trying to see if there's anything super op down here oh there is don't worry about okay but okay here's the problem if we go down this line aren't we stuck we can't get down to the far bottom right the far bottom being these foxes so basically i'm in the middle here and if we go zara's regime and then say we strengthen the royal dictatorship political power gain 10 you can join the tripartite pact and then you have more options down there but i think until tsar boris dies you cannot do the form regency console how do you get to the join tripartite pact with still having boris alive so you kind of go promote bulgarian nationalism that focus with the huge bulgarian flag then is uh bulgarian redeemed i cannot pronounce that and after that approach germany and then you're down there joining the access that is that is a weird route it's very confusing i know one of the things i was protesting all all day long about it's very confusing the focus 3. it's kind of like a puzzle so we'll just embrace we'll embrace the confusion and uh and say that it's it's a fun puzzle to play but it's a very fun puzzle but uh it's a puzzle nevertheless i didn't see that at all because look at the way everything crosses here i was like whoa they couldn't make it all fit together okay so no no the czar's regime then for sure right okay i mean yes i have went that route it seems legit it works and uh the best part is that you keep boris we wanted to keyboards in the decisions i think you're gonna get the options to send boris to different parts of bulgaria keep interacting with the people and depending on his mood i guess you're gonna get different uh outcomes but for me it was most of the time increased stability and parts popularity that's nice and then turkey just removed the demilitarized zone of the dardanelles historical so that's interesting i i did not know that so it's historically it removed the demilitarized zone but they just stayed neutral so it was pretty much demilitarized in well it was militarized just out of the war neutral oh yeah uh definitely actually if we have to go super historical the borders uh of bulgaria with greece and turkey also had to be demilitarized oh like in your mod yeah similar yes so you can see a royal visit to varna this is you send boris to varna and he makes a public appearance and depending on the iron jesus uh mood in the day you're gonna get uh different results okay i gotta think about this so how how fast wait so we're never we're never going to get rid of the restriction to the 50 percent if we're royalist we're gonna have to wait for world tension to be fifty percent in order to declare war against someone right uh not necessarily but uh you get there eventually uh let me i'm gonna search for it and when i find the time i'll tell you i think there was a focus somewhere right here that allows you to declare war faster okay i guess i'll go construction then and that doesn't really make sense let's go already but yeah for now i think we're gonna stay out of any wars because because of the restrictions we can't even produce aircraft or tanks like the good stuff and we cannot even train divisions or change templates so until either the united kingdom says yeah you can militarize now or we kind of break the rules we're gonna stay stay as as we are okay so we gotta i'm assuming we're gonna have to play this mini game oh definitely it's a game in the game okay because i would like to go free trade we're going from export focus so maybe that's not the best idea okay let's focus on this i how about we do the royal visit to varna first or do you think there's a better one oh start with it start with it after that you gotta choose a faction that you want to suppress and start investing in those decisions i think national socialist movement is gonna help us the others must go okay that was wow yeah we should we should have done that right away good call uh so the national socialist is going to help us the rest so why would we allow an agrarian union speech probably not a good idea huh we would not because they're democratic the broads who's more dangerous here uh that's why you need to make the focus to suppress them by the way after you finish the communist focus you need to do the let me see how what the name is it's in the top middle dissolve the military union yeah that one this is gonna give them a lot of heat okay we'll do that next and then we'll discredit the greater agrarian union leaders here and it also gives you 15 stability so it's very nice to dissolve the military union so this veno is socialist [Music] veno is more like well i'm not very good with uh politics i can just tell you how they were organized so this is the noise like uh after the great war you know army restrictions so that the army cannot be under 20k men so as you can imagine a lot of men just lost their job and the military union was actually created to help these people integrate into the into normal lives and find work easy and they also had political agendas and that was to you know influence all politics in bulgaria like dark console or something and they kind of went against the sars wheel so they had to be removed i think they also instigated the coupe in 1934 and removed all parties so that only they can be in control and that's our then remove them next year with a counter coup so the socialists are caught it says decision cost to oppress broad socialist faction is halved will lose stability based on communism support and broad socialist popularity and lock's decision to oppress the broad socialists okay so we'll crush communism next yeah crush the communists dissolve the military union and after that you can do something else i think these two are very important to start from the beginning because you're gonna invest a lot of political power in those decisions so you better i mean if you don't they're gonna make some nasty stuff to your stability and water support and maybe even coop you okay let's let's go choose a faction and start digging into it let's check this so we could go free trade here we can't go war economy i think that it'll set me to war economy no matter what with war industry right yeah change economic a lot of war economy so we get war industry and that's how we change our economy um is it going to make sense to go free trade that's the question uh yes go free trade uh it's not a bad idea actually because we don't have many resources and the bonuses are amazing yeah andrew didn't do anything you went free trade or yeah you went free trade this is gonna help you with research and construction and even production to some degree andrea if you're in the chat say hello because you're you're you're gonna like this esg went free trade and now and now he's gonna go partial mobilization in some time we're doing a mobile warfare right here and he's doing mobile warfare with bulgaria again okay so what i think it's the way to go with the cavalry template that we have and um the general and the genius like it's the way to go so i'm lost here so you said we're doing something i don't i don't see it what's the next thing we're going to do here dissolve the military union that's uh if you see the power to the tsar focus on the left a little bit below it in the center these four foxes you choose the soft military union that is the zven of action right at the top at the center i'm just gonna type it in dissolve all right okay okay okay gotcha yep you dissolve them and make your life easier it also gives a 15 stability which is nice yeah i think that i used to always say go with the political power this gives you political power and stability now i usually say stability is best first because it gives you industry as well as political power gain so stability is the best thing in the game right now hello welcome to the stream hey craig field good to see you man he came so yeah the minigame with bulgaria oh that too yes worker strikes so the minigame as bulgaria from the start of the game is to suppress the not needed factions otherwise they're gonna suppress you if you know what i mean okay so i shouldn't uh repress the broad socialists repress or discredit uh you can read what gives what but uh yeah because of that uh event it led me to believe that the broad socialists are doing the most trouble and that's why i started to dissolve them little by little after that it was the agrarian union and later as we know so you're gonna have a lot to do with those uh decisions for like two or three years okay well i don't want to um lose the stability so i went with the top option yeah i also went with the top option okay dissolve the military union so we went power to the tsar zara regime crushed communist dissolve the military union it looks like a good path yeah there is also another which uh one guy told me that he did immediately so i'm gonna check it real quick he said it's pretty useful okay so we got an event we repressed the socialists we have successfully cracked down on the broad socialist arresting members who have reportedly tried to instigate protests or provoke riots among the population so too bad i didn't do that a little earlier our stability went down uh let's discredit the socialist leaders uh tim filaux uh this is not an op build as you can see this is the second day of the dlc and we're still figuring things out but i would believe esg would do an op build with bulgaria in the future yeah we don't ever worked out this is my first time playing the dlc but we're we're going to work it out together ban broad socialist media okay so this is kind of like the spanish revolution um decisions there's the minigame going on here so yes the best part is that you're not close to a civil war so you're not in a hurry but the sooner you deal with the other factions the better i you can also do improve worker conditions to improve your stability if it's available and you need stability it doesn't hurt too much pick it up i'll save for now well i guess we can do it so i think i found i'm worried about running out of political power like you do when you play a spain so i'm just going to save it for now and just keep clicking these buttons improve the worker conditions is going to improve your stability which improves your uh political power gain among other things that's true that's true so i think i found the focus is that we need to go to health and the prices of these decisions so you can see the big bulgarian flag promote bulgarian nationalism so we go this and after that you can see on the left the voting system illusions of a non-partisan system it says decision cost to activate any faction management decisions is half so we're gonna again we're gonna use less political power to influence these factions and you get uh boris modifies by a ten percent political power gain as well and stability as well uh but uh this has a requirement our democrat party needs to be 20 in popularity this is the only restriction okay so how do we get them down then do we have to do raids in my playthrough i was pretty late with this focus but my friend says that he did it very early but he did not tell me how so we're gonna have to figure it out because it's very powerful spending only 10 political power instead of 20 that's nice wait more than 20 support for the dp okay how do we get support for the oh we have to go freedom press because look it says change in popularity of democracy five percent ah let me see is that to be enough the dp that will give us up to 13. uh actually do you see limited woman suffrage yep this unlocks a political advisor that gives us daily stability i know daily political power weekly stability and democratic support i think she would be very nice in the early game and when you get this 20 25 for the democratic party you kick her out to the focus and uh you're back on the road yeah i think that's the way to go unless you see another way uh no this is how i did it probably he did it as well but he didn't tell me that he did it super early okay uh women's suffrage just like in your mod what's the rule for chat again mods i'm not sure prickle man no stelios has played the mod he says that he supports our decision not the most the dlc thank you stella okay cool yeah it seems some democracy is required imprisoned broad socialist leaders i'm just going with like i don't know but there's a royal visit to jaskovo the royal visit it's only seven days you can zip through it i think it was seven days yeah there it is so i'm worried about our political power so i'm gonna save and not do political actions when you when you actually suppress a faction when they get closer and closer to capitulation quote uh they're gonna start giving you political power back so you're just investing it right now i think when i suppressed when i actually it says destroy this faction you get like 120 160 something like that political power back oh wow so once they get banned the political power comes back yep so it's like stockpiling it somewhere most likely i think it's similar to how the influence the dutch trade works between the uk and germany i think it's something similar you invest political power but later you get it credit field no this is not multiplayer i am just the advisor of esg's single player game all right we got rid of the socialist leaders there oh and then immediately yeah it looked like it gave us back political power that at this okay so we'll okay i feel we don't want to ban the democratic party though uh not yet but later when uh italy starts to influence your politics the nice thing they added into the game you see the ban fascism decision if you have a national spirit that influences your politics like the political bubble uh if you ban this particular party the national spirit also disappears so bulgaria can never be cooped that easily gotcha it's a nice little change they added so to address your questions chat like just don't be too negative overly negative we've never had to ban anyone here um but i did put someone on timeout and i think people thought that i banned him but i didn't but he was like calling people names and stuff like that so it was very toxic so we got rid of him for a few minutes but he hasn't been back i mean it's not bad to be a little bit negative but don't go over the top with the negativity uh yeah if you're like spam and chat like 20 20 things are like like completely negative and just arguing with people what's the point of being here man if you're not having a good time everyone's against you and and like basically yeah no one agrees with you and you're like fighting with them it's like that doesn't sound like a good day dude you might just need to let me do you a favor yeah let's help you out uh by the way uh go to the fox 3 i think i found very nice thing for you okay so you see uh after both i promote bulgarian nationalism the big bulgarian flag under it found the brannic check it out gaines national spirit branic which grants recruitable pop ten percent weekly war support point one okay so that's how we get that back political advisor advisor cost negative 25 the gold mine okay okay well we're gonna need that democratic reformer immediately after this i guess we could wait uh you can still get her but when she's done her job you can remove her much cheaper gotcha and that recruitable population it's a factor it's not uh it's not uh flat out uh yeah you get these ten percent uh recruitable population it's a factor based on your uh recruitment law okay to clear out any confusion in the chat so it is based on your recruitment law it doesn't change our recruitment law though does it no no it doesn't okay broad socialist destroyed it took some time so we get 120 political power you weren't lying to us change in popularity of nine non-aligned ten percent i see our stability is up to 55 bulgaria let's just like that just like that got everything back again and i think it's more political power than we actually invested so it's a flat bonus to our political power we're swimming in it right now okay you might have already told me this and i forgot bulgarian rearmament how do we get that oh no i have not told you yet uh let's see i'm gonna have to consult the focus three myself okay we gotta get this woman's rights gal uh yes so you work on that while i remember how we get rid of these army restrictions okay let's rally against this veno so i just want to get rid of the other party factions here and steal their political power i agree thanks for the pogs and chat guys [Applause] okay so i think i got it yeah there it is okay when you feel like it go to the focus and then i'm gonna show you which foxes to take okay i'm here the okay so go to the acquire modern tools this is gonna help you in the construction but this is not that important the important thing is negotiate bulgarian rearmament this is gonna unlock the decisions you need uh you're gonna approach the uk but they're gonna give you an impossible task which is to get a non-aggression pact with some of your neighbors and the possible part is that everybody hates you it's on the left don't worry uh yeah there it is most left most left on top okay so you go acquire modern tools and then negotiate military rearmaments a bulgarian rearmant okay this is gonna unlock the decisions to negotiate with the british the first one they're gonna tell you well it's okay but you have to demonstrate your non-aggressive motives in a way and they ask you to sign a non-aggression pact with your neighbors which is impossible because everybody hates you and the other yeah they give you an impossible task the other decision is to pressure the british and i checked the code because it seems very random it's very much in your not in your favor but you can improve it by not doing the macedonian decisions focuses also being friendly with the british as much as possible and this is gonna possibly lift the restrictions so yeah don't waste political power trying to impress your neighbors they're not gonna like you either way okay just go straight to the british uh there it is dimitra sivanova okay so we'll go for her and then we'll go down for freedom of press for that um there's a lot of political power and change in popularity of democracy five percent and then maybe we can get to the illusion of a non-partisan system quicker this is gonna help too okay we'll try another royal visit here and then we should imprison the the zveno leaders pillbox and esg wait for greece in the dlc to help your butts laugh aloud i play grease max four hours okay what do you mean stelios can you elaborate on this one oh agrarian's popularity rising in the countryside it gains base stability negative five wow we're up to 73 instability change in popularity of democrat uh democracy five percent we're gonna need the bronic can we go wait the democracy went up yeah five percent okay we might be missing something but okay so i didn't realize when we started so we need to change democracy up to twenty percent but until this gets uh on until this gets done we can do other foxes okay let's just go for something cheap here well that'll help us it's not cheap but nothing is cheap yeah i think we have to go access oh i found it i found it so bulgarian iridentism this gives generate orgo tension limit minus 75 this is even better than in my mod basically you can declare war uh justify war anytime yeah the bulgarian irredentism but still you have the army restrictions which you're not going to worry anytime soon if you don't get rid of those we gotta approach the uk giannis is saying that um bulgarian democracy didn't work too well i agree it's not working well even now anyway [Applause] when you feel like going to war early that should that focus should be after we deal with the army restrictions i believe and raises the world tension by five percent so we don't exactly want this right now okay so freedom of press we have not banned any faction media in the last 365 days huh actually hold on on that it says there are a bunch of bonuses there so changes national second national catastrophe to bulgarian irredentism weekly stability 30 0 30 war support 10 weekly war support 0 30. so i think we should rush it even though we don't want to go to war just yet just because it changes the second national catastrophe with good stuff can we go okay yeah so we could probably get around to get strengthen the royal dictatorship another way right uh i think no i don't believe so we have to get illusions of a nonpartisan system but i mean how are we gonna get democratic no we're not getting democratic we are just improving the party popularity a little bit we just need twenty percent isn't it the democratic party yes yes but uh she's doing her job eventually we're gonna get there so it's been going down the popularity is only 3.3 daily change is in the negative oh i guess no it's positive 0.04 uh you can stop making the visits to other cities this is gonna help us get a little bit of democracy because each time boris visits and he's successful in his work we get some non-aligned support so this is actually not helping us so you can stop with the visits for now but still invest in suppressing the other factions okay i'm just trying to think if there's a better way i recommend we're going non-aligned for now if esg has a secret plan to make us fascist all of a sudden i don't know about it so you think we should go so you could ban far right organizations here fascism goes down i actually went restraint paramilitary organizations because it gives you weekly manpower of 500. and one guy told me that a year has like how much it was 51 weeks so multiply this by 500 you get tons of manpower each year like 50k or something well we've got to get rid of the second national catastrophe so i think we go for bulgarian irredentism and then restraint power paramilitary organizations and then maybe branic because this improves this this gives a discount on the politicians and also gives us more support for per week oh man we have not still touched the army restrictions so much to do i think it's like you do that when you're about ready to go to war though uh which one the branic uh remove the army restrictions uh you're better off doing it as early as possible to be honest like you cannot even change templates that's how bad it is yeah we should really get the democratic reformer as well and then i'm gonna have to take him off later but if you mean like doing it a bit a little bit later after after doing some political boxes yes i believe this is the correct way because getting it out the way like first week or something is not gonna help us too much because we still have political issues yeah i guess we could allow an agrarian union speech so they're the democratic party the agrarian union and now it boosts them uh does it give some democracy i believe it will well try it out for you um i don't trust them agrarians aren't they that's uh i actually clicked the wrong button but the the agrarians are the democrats yes whoa click on the bottom something is going to work out i know right geez there's a lot going on here like you could spend a lot of time on bulgaria and have a lot of fun here uh joe credfield thanks for coming see you great field uh yes this mini game is actually fun because it gives you a lot of political power in the end you just have to figure it out with one of my friends when we played for the first time as i told you side by side we're bulgarian and we had no idea what to do with these parties this is how confusing it was at the start i can't imagine how a foreigner would see this minigame and how he would react if he didn't have some help i think i figured it out because it's all like the focus tree like you said is predicated about going to illusions of a non-partisan system so if we did not has banned any faction media in the last 365 days so if we hadn't banned any of the faction media we could have gone freedom's freedom of press which would have helped us a lot uh what's the requirement uh because banned any faction media in the last 30 okay so and then i wouldn't have done anything against the agrarian union because that they're essentially democrats so there's the democrats the fascist is this veno and the socialists or the communists and i think every time something was happening it was affecting these pie charts oh we got 20 percent popularity dude we did it ago zveno is destroyed 120 political power okay so i can remove the democratic for reformer um maybe just keep it until the focus is done just in case we lose some of that democratic popularity i mean she's giving us stability weekly let's try a royal visit again and hope that that doesn't change we're not going democratic uh anytime soon so it's not gonna hurt us uh stellos is asking what is the next country you're gonna play from the doc greece of course there you go let the people be heard gains national spirit democratic opposition which grants political power gained negative 50 daily democratic support no forget that we're not gonna do elections uh historical okay so i keep messing up here because now the dp is down to eight uh because you're doing doing the visits i told you not to do them they are improving our unaligned support and giving us also stability i mean the stability is nice but there they move the political barbarian bubble in our favor and right now we want to improve the democratic popularity so the visits are actually hurting us believe it or not gotcha the stability improves the monarchist because we're the the ruling faction [Applause] don't do visits uh for a while we're gonna get that democratic sweet spot at 20 21 we do the focus then we can kick her out okay so restraining paramilitary organizations weekly manpower thank you very much it'll improve no it'll it'll hurt the agrarian movement so wow so you really have to balance all this stuff out joint act with the agrarian union will that help don't touch it it says plus 10 that seems a little a little much okay so we're almost up to 20 again are you sure i might want to touch it if we're not there no no no no no no you don't need to okay no need to over invest and have problems with them later san marino i removed his mod and now he says he feels more free people do get a little uh they feel i don't know like it san marino is a little aggressive with the mod you know with the mod status have you seen that meme uh neutral good neutral passive and then there was a lot other things and there was a chaotic good san marino is chaotic good oh for d and d oh i'm not sure i just saw the meme yeah that's what it's from it's from dungeons and dragons you can be different alignments it was three by three chart i believe with different pictures i think it was characters from some game and then there were these uh names for them chaotic that san marino i think he's chaotic and neutral well yeah i know he's chaotic good he listens okay he's chaotic you definitely are lawful okay so dang it the the dp went back down ah yes we gotta restrain ourselves and not do any visits okay uh we can invest some of that political power uh okay we're gonna allow a speech here now what are we at 17 not enough can we change the civilian civilian industry well we can do freedom of press which will give us the 5 democratic support so that'll be nice they're definitely keeping us busy here in the early game oh yeah definitely since we cannot be busy in the with the army stuff we're busy with the political stuff uh andrew is not here but i would imagine that he would tell you to switch to partial mobilization we have the war support for it i'm not gonna touch it because we actually we could get down to war industry all we need is strengthen the royal dictatorship and that changes us to war economy i think that would be best yeah but you need to be at war to click that national spirit was it war industry war industry yeah or needs you to be at war that's perfect i want to be a war so we can so when can we be at war with them justify war goal take claim state dude we could be awarded 90 days this is great you're like no how do we move how do we remove the restrictions with how many countries you want to be at war if you attack greece you're gonna be at war with two countries if you attack romania with you're gonna be at war with three countries uh i can check other countries uh yeah if you attack yugoslavia for example you can be a tour with four countries uh let's see turkey uh no no turkey is not good enough i think we should attack yugoslavia to have even more enemies yeah i think this is good yeah this is the situation esg i'm not joking let's what is this oh man so we can't we essentially can't but that that gets removed after a while yeah after a long while dude ivanova she looks like princess leia like princess leia's sister i'm gonna check real life pictures of her let me see the name yeah she does look like her sister if she had one okay military factories from now on so she was a journalist actually it says she's she lived until 1960 okay so she's young in the game oh wait i have actually read about her but uh yes okay she's important i think she's the leader of the women's union in bulgaria that's why they made her a an activist when you do the focus cool okay so we're going to get the illusions of the non-partisan system might as well take a military theorist recommend uh the americans lost to vitamins yes i agree oh there's an artillery expert oh yeah he's dang uh we don't have infantry expert he's locked behind a certain political party that we're destroying seriously yeah that's okay we could go cavalry only and then we could put the artillery in the cavalry like we're fine true i did that once it worked pretty well i was wondering why am i even having infantry cavalry is amazing yeah and there's no there's no downside as far as i know i think they require just a little bit more guns but uh we're gonna provide the guns well i don't think that it's as good in a city um i believe not they have different uh terrain modifiers but they're much faster and the defense is pretty much the same along with the firepower and everything they're faster too so i'm just waiting to start taking off these democratic reformers and stuff because i don't want uh the dp to go down too far well until we finish this fox attended it we need to get rid of mushy now first oh you actually hired him i did we have plenty of democratic support we can just fire them right now 30 is more than enough okay agrarian union negative 15 faction popularity okay so the commies came back it says that's what i got from that sometimes the factions surface again and this time they're not joking they're gonna try to coop you like they were playing nice they want just more popularity just more right just more power but now they want to kill you because you suppress them wow look at this liberalization of trade policies consumer good factories negative five percent trade law is negative 50. uh yeah that's also nice i did it okay so now we've got to build support back up but where do we go from here we're gonna have to go to the left or we could do uh i would suggest going for the industry and army stuff for a little bit so that we can start getting rid of that army restrictions sorry okay acquire modern tools yes and then negotiate poker in the armament and we can try our luck with the uk if it doesn't work with the uk we can try germany and you know who's gonna give you the faster answer so remember when you finish the focus uh negotiate bulgarian rearmament before you do the decisions make sure you have plenty of opinion the uk has plenty of opinion about you okay it's not gonna be like yes this is definitely gonna work but it's definitely helping you convince them this might have been a mistake nah we're gonna remove her as well so it's fine i guess we have to do military factories by now it's it's uh 1938 okay whatever uh going to partial mobilization again improves the construction speed and uh might give you a factory or two so we're gonna have the political power we just have to prioritize some stuff i mean we have discounts on plenty of stuff so there's not much we can do to the factions anymore yeah exactly we we won't have to spend political power there and i believe we have several national spirits that improve our political power gain okay so how do i get rid of ivanova can you just remove her yeah right click i believe i've never had to do this before i think uh oh you can just remove her for zero that's awesome okay so it was a left click uh left click okay i have also done it like one time probably some time ago that was the first time i've ever done that in hearts of iron four well i immediately replaced her because i did her very late into the game so i had better guys to switch i never just fired her dang now i want the democrats to go away okay we can discredit them wait is that manpower that i'm seeing what have you done you're breaking the rules esg we don't have we are not allowed to have that much manpower or just everyone's coming out of the woodwork to support boris that's why okay that works i'm gonna type it down when the uk asks what are we doing with our manpower okay um can't really do anything there i don't know why we can't do any of these industrial concerns it's probably because of one of our modifiers right uh say again so it's not allowing me to get like any of these research in production okay they have focus requirements okay gotcha [Applause] so we acquired modern tools still can't do anything over here because we need 70 percent support for czar boris loyalists uh you can improve relations with germany and approach it i believe this is gonna unlock the decisions to actually purchase stuff from germany and there uh you can just do them as much as you want there repeatable that's okay i'm gonna have to improve relations here for a sec uh i think it was 70 oh no 25 okay perfect we just see if it works so that system i'm gonna integrate into the mod somehow because it's it's brilliant i like it so much yeah we're gonna see how good it is here i'm gonna just go for the liberalization liberalization of the trade policies real quick yeah why not uh chad are you guys taking your vitamin d that's the one vitamin that's linked to uh protecting yourself against covid i think vitamin d part of uh how you gain it from the sun or something you have to be exposed to sun rays daily was that the same vitamin or something uh it is uh just a second best stormtrooper thanks for the follow men um yeah there's two ways you can get it you can either expose yourself to the sun or you can um basically eat it in a pill form and that's the only two ways so i was talking about that with a friend today and uh i told them just that actually because they wanted to know what else they could do uh-oh we're getting alerts here velkov thanks for the follow uh that comment says the alert was very loud i know it is for me i can't turn it down i don't know what to do we're gonna have to check the google for this some other time dude the other thing is i don't know what i'm not on twitch right now so it's not called follow so does that mean it's just a subscriber uh yes i believe so all right oh i can get the upgraded engineer company but we're going to go cavalry only so be nice to have a better fighter but we can't even produce fighters right now let's go with the industry that's why we need i mean we can buy stuff from germany that's that's the only thing i think it's overpowered that you can do it so often that you don't have to build your the stuff yourself that's how it's time efficient it's time efficient you just invest i think it was 25 50 political power and it's for 90 days so it removes one of your civilian factories and you give it to germany like literally and after 90 days you get equipment and your factory back and you can spam this and it is over here uh reorganize the military industry there it is [Music] multiplayer i believe yeah this is very useful i believe actually that you want to do this with italy though in multiplayer because the better the italy the better the flanks of germany basically gotcha north africa and everything oh yeah and italy doesn't have the best industry compared to germany so if you give them civilian factories from time to time they're gonna be in a far better shape gotcha okay royalist visit [Applause] okay let's see if germany will help us out here or we'll improve relations let's approach germany activate purchase german artillery no the purchases are right here okay that's what you meant you can spam them okay i thought um i thought it was over here i'm sorry reorganize the military industry yeah finish the focus and then they're gonna appear i think you also get a nice nice event which shows us that we're approaching germany suck on you uk yeah but we still want to give it a shot with the uk because if they agree by some chance we remove all the army restrictions just like that okay so we can actually ban communism uh i would hold on to that in in case somebody decides to place a national spirit that influences our politics then if you did do ban the communist or the fascist they also remove the national spirit connected to them and it looks like they just come back anyways even if you ban them they just come back in this mod basically yeah they're pesky san marino i'm not esg but i warn you that you're spamming way too much useless stuff keith good to see you man i expect you to be planning the russian invasion by now i wish dude uh this is the first time so this is just for uh exploration we're doing this delay for ex for exploration yes man where do we go next i really need this i really need delay i'll just pick this up because it's so cheap god i want to get my hands on these templates i think we should invest at least one focus to be on uh doctoring duty at least until we get the good stuff uh you mean one research slot is that it oh yeah sorry one research what what did i say i focus but it's okay so after i get after i get the artillery i'll switch back to that i i think you're right we should get delay next well it's morning for me and it seems very cloudy morning it might even decide to rain love to have that it's been burning hot over here in california well winter is gonna come in a few months yeah there it is bulgarian bulgaria i'm interested would that even work if germany was the german empire instead of the reich for out history and get a different icon for some uh picture for some reason yeah i don't know so if if they had a different picture for that event yes with the with the kaiser for example it would be cool it would probably be the same thing yeah just change the name of germany i kind of feel like um yeah unless uh germany was strictly democratic before world war ii starts like world war ii is gonna start at least in in europe but i guess i guess if you take germany out of the war probably world war ii is not going to happen unless the communists start trouble which they could and then you'd have a world war ii it's not gonna be the communists it's gonna be the italians do i don't think they could have had i don't know they weren't militarily strong enough or industrially strong enough so but negotiate our claims in the balkans let's forget that forget that let's keep it fully for later because uh we have much more important stuff down there okay so we can get some armor aircraft vehicles what are you thinking uh what are we lacking the most personally i went for german aircraft and chose the tactical bombers because for some reason they don't give you their old tactical bombers they give you uh the 1936 bombers that's awesome it is we and we have not even researched those and we get them just for one uh civilian factory for 90 days the attack bombers are definitely your best bang for your buck yeah they're gonna have to rebalance that they're so expensive and there is no way you're gonna produce that many in 90 days as bulgaria man that's crazy okay so we can ban the agrarian union 365 days since we established freedom of press so in the meantime i'm still discrediting we should approach the uk just to give it a shot oh we could do all this stuff dude wow that's awesome we have the political power do you just purchase heavy tanks uh-huh do this a few times and you can uh mount the tank division dude i want i want the light tanks just because it's going to be easier this is overpowered in my opinion but it's a very nice mechanic it just needs to be rebalanced a little bit wow but remember you're investing one civilian factory per decision for 90 days so if you don't have the factories you're gonna crush your economy basically okay so that's why we needed the civilian factories early okay i could see that it kind of makes sense and it aligns perfectly with my mod as well because that's the usually the strategy i choose i built civilian factories for a few years just because i'm gonna have if you remember the industrial investments focus which gives you four military factories straight away and if you don't have the civilian factories you're gonna purchase you know the materials required and then you don't have civilian factories gotcha uh best stormtrooper yeah this is the same thing we're discussing these decisions seem [Applause] what if the apple did not drop on isaac newton's head no modern physics man no the i yeah this is old history on the next level but i still believe we're gonna have gravity we just don't want to know that much about it i think it i think it sets back modern physics probably about 10 years because then you're gonna have to wait for someone else to come up with something yeah we're gonna have to wait on someone else to sit by the tree and get hit by an apple dude i think he was actually an alchemist which is a banned practice at that time because everyone was trying to make like lead into gold and stuff but so maybe many of his like if i'm remembering correctly but i think maybe many of his ideas were fueled by you know a get rich quick scheme i'm not sure well he did got rich now he's remembered by everyone yeah he was a smart man that's for sure probably not known for what he wanted to be known for i don't know i imagined death well if he wanted to be the father of like modern alchemy for instance he didn't achieve that sad um we should negotiate the real moment and try our luck with the uk okay so does this does this allow us to start changing the templates and doing stuff like that no this is allowing us to negotiate with the uk to allow us to change the templates oh my goodness yeah yeah it's much harder than in my mod uh because they did it like um they gave you a choice like a random chance to make it more uh go either way you know to make the gameplay different each time something like uh you remember my decision where you can you have to investigate the stockpiles and you have four different uh chances like that like for different outcomes this is similar to that gotcha the uk the uk might not accept but they if they do we don't have army restrictions which is the best thing because we can start doing some real reforms to the army so we should have the decision right now but uh as i said improve relations with the uk did it happen i clicked through it too fast no there is a decision over here gotcha gotcha let's discredit it demonstrate our policies of peace uh yeah improve relations first then click it like uh i think we needed 50 or 70 i don't remember because i saw it in the code just to make sure i needed like a few other things to give yourself a better chance like you can just look into the matrix you don't even look in the game you just look at the code exactly it's nice to be a mother what can i say uh now you see that if italy is influencing our politics we have the national spirit that gives us daily fascism support and if we ban the fascist right now with the decision that national spirit is gonna disappear which is pretty cool okay fascism banned nice okay i guess we'll go with construction okay then back to this monster here um it's a big focus tree i mean it's like triple the size of italy's it's a it's a decent size so okay we should probably go to the top right sabor support macedonian organization no no no don't touch it we we need to try to convince the uk that uh we're the good guys okay i'm gonna do national military academy in the meantime yeah if you support the macedonian organization like it is brutal how much the people hate you uh let me see no no i'm not i'm not joking you get a decision oh no actually it says it in the focus uh united kingdom france yugoslavia and probably one other gains -50 opinion of bulgaria just like that and there is a decision that if you click it to rearm them now you have minus one hundred percent opinion with the with these countries jeez yeah it's pretty severe so we improve relations with the uk demonstrate our policies of peace and hope for the best okay so czar boris okay we already did that one i'm trying to think this will be nice to get the 100x research bonus to lar uh land doctrine i mean we did uh all the important stuff from the politics now we need to do the important stuff in the industry and army now the good thing is that most of the foxes are giving you either one or two military factories so we're gonna rearm pretty fast if the uk decides to allow us yeah there's got to be a quicker way to get through that democratic squeeze point for sure we just need to think about it and now that we've done it we could definitely figure it out i think without having to play through uh yes just don't visit any city says boris and the democracy is gonna rise pretty fast to twenty percent because this is the only way how you increase your stability but also non-aligned support right now i mean it did feel good but and the other thing was don't don't uh change the the press don't censor the press so that you can go uh freedom of speech yeah that too okay so we can discre so wait war logistics no we need factories is it time to do oh i have to let the political power to get up to demonstrate our policies of peace this is up to 59 with the uk uh uk's opinion of us is 59 yeah save the political power and give it shot i think we have a good chance i think you have two guys requiring your opinion in the chat the last two comments fall over so far i i'm liking it like there's a lot of different things you're busy the whole time here with all the different uh decisions that you're making there's a lot of decisions so the early war i you know it's it's popping thanks deb juicy i appreciate that i and we're playing bulgaria there's three different nations here so i mean obviously if you're like pillbox and you're bulgarian i think you'd enjoy this you know playing bulgaria um i'm trying to think back of what the best dlc is um that's a hard one i like death and dishonor because it allowed you to create from stockpile um equipment and i don't know why that's so important to me but like little production things like that are very important i think that dlc also allows you to give traits to your generals and improve them otherwise this feature is locked without us this dlc similar to uh together to victory which gives foxes to the british empire's dominions this dlc gives like puppets the options to form puppets and i don't i think um waking the tiger gave an update to german foxtry and also foxes to china so every dlc gives something unique yeah and if you like france go with a lot of resistance yeah i mean that you want a big focus tree and you want a puzzle to figure out like whoo god it took me so long to figure out france it was crazy good thing i played it before the update of the focus 3. yeah i mean i'm sitting there everyone's giving me help in the chat and everything and like people are giving me uh a lot of ideas uh that definitely took all of us to try to figure out christophe hello yeah the ussr is gonna have a better focus three next summer offensive if you know what i mean and italy is probably gonna be a follow-up after that okay with yugoslavia is that what you're saying oh i'm not telling anything i'm gonna leave it in paradox to give up their secrets all right i was wrong before so i'm not gonna try to predict stuff again okay so we can we can join the tri apartheid pact or we could approach the uk oh hold on approach the united kingdom that didn't show up for me okay that works oh probably if we do this we're gonna purchase stuff from the uk instead and they'll probably allow us to rearm too i'm gonna try this one in my next playthrough well i mean we could do that purchase a bunch of stuff from them and then backstab them and enjoying the tripartite pact right you evil person uh yeah i believe so i mean you gotta balance everything out like you gotta basically play both sides and we're bulgarian we got to think about bulgaria not like ah and i think historically it plays into that as well because i mean boris didn't want to join the axis i mean come on i don't think he really wanted to go to war i just don't think he wanted the country to be eaten uh bulgaria was not in best shape for war either way uh so he just joined the access because we either we join the axis or we get stomped by them same with yugoslavia and the other central european countries bricoman asks which countries has have the biggest focus tree without doc i think it's america germany i don't know because if you're talking like i don't play like japan is that often to know that the answer to that japan is not very big to be honest it's good size but it's not super big yeah then i i'm not sure the answer to that question i'm gonna go either with germany or america to be honest i think they have very big focus trees for without docs jim john uh beer and sausages for sure dude and then i can't pronounce your name but i'm glad that you're happy about the dlc man uh crystal ft move if that's the person with us greensko that's awesome that you can read that it is uh and that is uh hilarious i thought it was gonna everyone was asking me what's the new dlc i'm gonna be you i would say ussr in italy that's what i thought the next dlc was going to be and then people like no it's going to be bulgaria greece and turkey and i'm like yeah but i mean they're going to do italy right people like no i'm like i was also expecting italy because they're so close to greece for example and they have uh shared history in the second world war so it was pretty close to assume but apparently not i mean they're a big country so they're one of the majors in the game so they'll probably deserve their own either their own dlc or they are gonna come with the ussr yeah best stormtrooper i also like to play italy in single player and also multiplayer i think italy is in a great position to deal some damage and unlike germany italy has a navy man people always get on my case because i like the italian focus tree everyone's like no i like the italian focus tree because it's so like succinct i don't know but then once you're done once you're to a certain point there's like nothing more to do you're just like there's not you're just hanging out uh the biggest point to the talent three beings like you don't care about it in that regard most people say that you can do you can do most of the political stuff without even needing to do the foxes and everything else is just mediocre in in case of the factories you get the forts are nice i mean you don't get very nice bonuses that modern focus trees get for example they are just old italy just needs a good rework and they're gonna be nice but i like them either way they're just a nice country overall and uh they're in a very good position in the game okay we gotta we gotta think about this how do i so did did the uk not allow me to get anything oh 15 more days okay did you do the decision yep 15 more days on the uh the decision here okay hold on to your helmets prickle man i don't know if you saw those um focus trees that i put up there canada and british raj it looked decent i've never played him i don't really know what is incorporated but at least it wasn't a generic focus tree canada i played them once in the british rush as well but i didn't get much into them but their focus seems seem very nice uh in grad field bulgaria is ready to conquer the balkans we're almost there yeah actually let's check our stockpile out now i can't really make more divisions but we couldn't do that anyway i so nothing happened does that mean we refused uh it gave you more decisions you'll need to do them as well tyler we're playing bulgaria get tasks hello welcome to the stream uh if you have good relations with the uk uh you have better chances but i did negotiate bulgarian rearmament and after that pressure to lift the army restrictions because you know diplomatic okay i'm going to improve relations again and then once we get to 70 i believe it's very good number and we're gonna have the political power by that point okay world wars 2 started foreign agreements industrial agreement with the german reich oh those okay so that was with attract foreign capital uh yes i think i chose germany just because historical oh my goodness what we did you see this you can get a research slot really quick one two three four that's what i'm saying by 1939 i had five uh research slots where's your fifth one over here uh in the army vasilevskiy national military university oh my goodness yeah five research slots okay we can definitely figure out an op build here ag tasks hey tyler good to see you guys yeah i'm just playing with uh bulgaria on the new dlc battle for the boss for us and um yeah this is pillbox 20. go check out pill box 20's bulgaria mod uh it is out for the right now because of the new dlc but you can play it if you switch back to the old version no problem i'm gonna update it in a few weeks because i'm busy with the new dlc as well it has some interesting features like controlling your factions in the early game because you're restricted by the uk you cannot do army stuff and this gives you something to do while the restrictions left okay so i think what i would do is i would be less click happy about all the decisions up here at the top and then i would be much more judicious about going democratic and i think we'd have a ton more political power and we can move things really quickly oh yeah definitely once you figure out what these decision decisions do you're gonna know which ones you need and which ones you don't and that way you're gonna save political power like i really liked banning fascism when i but after italy you know started messing with us okay here we go negotiate bulgarian rearmament active for 30 days let's cross our fingers here so but you're not going to be able to get here too quickly how do we get here let me think i mean we could do the focus early like straight away but we will still have crappy economy early game and there are political focuses that can help us much more so probably negotiate bulgarian rearmament like 1938 somewhere so that we can have the time to do the political focuses i think this is the proper way i mean fixing that we fixed stability first and i think that fixes your economy faster than anything else yeah i'm not gonna lie stability is pretty nice so i think we went the right path initially but if we could have gotten like you said if we could have got these decisions over with by 38 we could have taken yugoslavia out i mean we still can but they're they're going to invade yugoslavia here soon i went for greece but i was kind of late so i had to redo my uh attempt because italy was at the same time i was at war with greece italy was doing their focus to go to war with greece and uh yeah you know what happens when italy attacks greece they joined the allies and everything went to the trash i had to restart to make sure i do it faster than italy but then i came up with the other problem which is you cannot capitulate greece by taking their continental territories because they have many more victory points in the islands so i had to cheat there because that needs to be fixed for some reason gotcha i mean you're not gonna have a navy even if you have one you're not getting it out of the black sea the other way is to wait for germany to make an evil invasion and the third option is to have paratroopers but you want the mountaineers more than the paratroopers so we're gonna have to play a few games and figure out the best way to deal with greece fast let's join the tripartite agreement uh christo this is actually exactly what i did i first played with the uk telling them that uh yes we're cool we're not uh the bad guys anymore we're gonna be nice to everyone and they allowed me to rearm and then i support the vemreo organization which they did not like at all minus 100 opinion of bulgaria so we tricked them okay so now we have to pressure to lift army restrictions uh did you get the event that you had to guarantee somebody no no so they refused no no they they accepted it but it was just for it was for like something else they accepted to reduce the restrictions oh the army restrictions are there what the heck so they did not agree basically cannot produce armor aircraft yeah they did nothing we gotta force them and hope for the best can someone in chat take a look at that what just happened can someone scroll back i thought that they um they lifted them they lifted something but i don't know tyler good to see you man what if the uk guarantees us rearmament and then we support the vrmo i'm just thinking it's world war ii man anything goes okay see the united kingdom lifts our army restrictions oh so it worked but you have to pressure them right yeah but i don't yeah so this is the way to do it just make the uk like us improve relations then pressure them that's the quote okay so i can touch a template oh my goodness okay you can change stuff you can uh we can use aircraft finally yeah that didn't feel good there for a while yeah we had the fighter right there just out of reach uh pretty common yeah my channel is very [Music] ancient yeah very old i think it's made 2013 or 2015 but i still upload stuff i actually have youtube ready for today i'm gonna upload it in a few hours but yeah it's very old so what is the perfect template we're gonna use csg okay so i'm building them all out cavalry only and then okay what are these so i can get rid of these guys now right oh but i wouldn't want to they have training okay let's move everyone to the kona division i recommend just one fact in 2012 i was at school that's how old it is okay we're gonna have to get rid of these guys so we're making anti air which is probably anti-tank just disguised as anti-air and the other is going to be artillery yep and then i'll make another one for engineering uh also i think since the army restrictions are gone we can improve our conscription law as well well let's wait till we oh the conscription a lot that's right exactly otherwise i in terms of focus 3 i did not join the triparte fact i think i last went for the industry and army stuff i finally did pressure of the balkans but i already had yugoslavia and greece and it was kind of late so i left the game at that point but yeah most of the political stuff are done the useful stuff let's check out the stockpile here that looks pretty good actually we probably could put engineers in this this division up here nice uh support equipment we're gonna have to produce more because our army is going to be massive i had for greece i think i had 24 full divisions like equipped to the teeth to seven uh no seven twos yeah it's the same uh with both engineers artillery and uh hospitals so support equipment is gonna be very stretched thin if you add it everywhere oh yeah for sure prickle man thanks man for the kind words i appreciate it and anyone in uh chat if you're not subbed please give me a sub there'll be a notification in in the stream i'm still trying to figure out the notification because it's really loud why don't you attach your air wings to your army because it doesn't work out every time and i see overcrowding happening and uh i'm too ocd to allow that to happen oh you're probably work in this situation just fine though i mean the ai makes it so that all your air zones are covered which is not optimal in case you want your air force to be concentrated in the area you're attacking right now so i also don't do the attach air wings to army i do it manually yeah it's just not like fully optimized like it's okay like you don't have to do it but it's definitely better if you micro yourself okay so military secret sharing peaceful development we get more stability like we need more total war secure occupation oh um i think right now would be a good time to do the mr i cannot pronounce this in english every o uh decision the macedonian organization if we're going with germany that would be very useful okay so support the macedonians i mean the allies are gonna hate you but we're already with germany come for the game leading this focus involves destabilizing the balkans making demonstrate our polit our policies a peace rearmament decision unavailable to bulgarity bulgaria that's why we did not do it earlier because it would close the uh the peaceful way of uh allowing ourselves to rearm that's why i told you to not do it early wow and boris now has like total control over the government let's see when the war goal procs here march 25th not gonna join wars they're getting guaranteed by belgium who's guaranteed by belgium yugoslavia exactly it's the same reaction yeah it's like good luck here on the other side of the world there we got two big boys in the way so we should be good oh they're still guaranteed by romania what are you guys doing in romania um yeah what am i gonna do andrew is probably andrew is probably playing them against us i know anovari thanks man for coming by yeah this is kind of mid game already everything's in order going in one direction and kind of hard to expand right now i mean it's not hard to expand it's hard to maintain your expansion because you're gonna make a lot of enemies real fast uh it's gonna be a normal stream a prickle so i'll probably we probably have like 45 minutes more depends where we are anvare says that he has learned a lot of things by watching your streams thanks dude i appreciate that appreciate all the followers and the everyone who likes single player and you know strategy war games and stuff like that esg also has good tutorial videos and playthroughs not only good streams so you can check them out as well i have actually found his channel by looking for tutorials for hearth's fire and four and he had pretty good ones so now i'm his subscriber thanks man nah it's no problem so we could cooperate with italy i mean we don't have to but for multiplayer it would be very useful you can get sending that corporatism sir for civilian factories uh yeah this is the fascist route actually uh if you sh you know let me just look at them myself a bit more sure so yeah point right wing ministers we're going fascist economic protectionism this is very powerful in my opinion construction speed uh 10 economic loss minus 50 and that's your second fox uh third fox after that industrial altar key this even more boosts uh government reforms from the last national spirit now makes it minus seven i know actually minus two consumer goods and the resources to market -15 and even more construction speed but nullifies your trade well costs so it makes your civilian factories built much faster 15 and then you can go corporatism this also improves it gives resource gain efficiency plus 15 consumer goods -5 resources to market zero so you're not giving up any resources and again civilian factory construction speed another five percent which makes it plus 20. you're gonna make so much civilian factories very fast okay it's a little late in the game so let's go for the military factories right here and not worry about civilian factories anymore should be able to harvest them from bulgarian government supports imro uh yeah we should be able to get all the factories from our neighbors that's esg strategy why build factories ourselves when we can take some from our neighbors well the rule of thumb that i use is every civilian factory that you build takes 10 years to get your return on investment i've never done the math on that but i've had multiple people tell me that and it doesn't matter if it's true or not i guess it only matters like it feels like it takes at least five or six years to get a return on investment on every civilian factory that you put in place so the civilian factories that we built in late 36 probably won't start giving us a return on investment until like 41. um so that's that's only five years and so i don't use the 10-year thing because i think it's better than that but that's what it feels like after playing the game it's kind of true not gonna lie best stormtrooper says that you have the best tutorials and you're the god of italy thanks dude appreciate that yeah it's funny um but as the the channel grows like obviously my channel is not that big we only have 2500 subs at this point um like i i really like playing italy it's a lot of fun but at a certain point you start to get into these different groups i feel like that the that youtube pushes you out to and then you start to get into the groups that i feel like they either don't want to see my videos but youtube keeps on bugging them about it and then i get you know like more negative comments i guess or you know you just run into more negative people as you get bigger but um i get a lot of people now hating on sp games but it's all good i mean it's a preference some people like multiplayer others like single player and when both groups collide usually there are negative feelings yeah now the uk is on board yeah so yeah uh i don't know if we can do this because of romania here we're gonna try to wait as long as we can um i think romania joins the axis in 41 so we can use that here to rearm even more so if i know you you're gonna want to eat yugoslavia greece and turkey probably at the same time uh there is a nice focus i will just search for it and tell you when i find it okay i think you're gonna like it very much okay so we got the war goal and i don't think it goes away because it's a southern serbia which should be a core maybe i was wrong about that if it's a core or a claim it doesn't go away but if you can justify on a core it will go much faster than a claim okay then i just have to sit here and stare at this until romania go like i can't fight romania and yugoslavia definitely not now what the forces we have here probably create a few more divisions since when do you speak like that you always say that we can do this well we were playing on regular last time we played your mod and when we went to war dude i felt like i had no problems but we're on elite mode tonight so i don't know oh okay that's changes this game so i think i found it so we supported macedonian revolutionaries right yep yep so we should have the decisions to uh supply them with arms correct oh okay so the thing is if you do other decisions in the end the territories that we're claiming which is macedonia and parts of greece i think they're gonna get a flag the territories themselves and since we're in the axis when germany or italy occupies them then they're gonna give them to us automatically i think it works without us even being at the in war with these countries just because they have these flags on their territories because of our decisions we are gonna get the territories transferred to us from our allies okay i'm doing the first one we're gonna make contact i remember reading about this on the the dev diary we could have done this a lot quicker as well but i mean if you have to wait for you know the axis to invade yugoslavia anyways i guess it really doesn't matter yeah you can do it later now we're exploding exploring this is your first game after all yeah we could set up a pretty sweet what we need to do is a we need to unlock um our army quicker i mean if it if it's just doing two foxes and then uh improving correlations with the uk and then doing one decision or two we're gonna fix it i think we can do some damage early on and yeah these decisions are overpowered so we're gonna have pretty good army very fast okay so we organized the military industry and i'd like to go for the fifth research slot let's get those sweet sweet mills do you know about that darzvana voena fabrica is that something that you know from history fabrica yes this is uh i think we have a designer like that as well this is uh states uh military factory that's uh the how do you say it in english oh god the main producer of arms even today but they renamed it uh to arsenal it produces small arms grenades artillery shells in the game support equipment as well it's pretty profitable right now because there's a lot of conflict in the world but yeah it's still uh online even today found uh the f support is a extension to that factory in the same the city of sopot uh if you see caproni bogerski on the left this is another joint attempt to rearm bulgaria from italy they construct aircraft they're not i think they closed down in mid world war ii and they got nationalized by the country even more on the left the javana arapuana robot units this is the state's aircraft workshop uh this is the if you go to the plane's research you see dart 3 for example dart 10 these are aircraft produced and designed by this company so these are these are yeah bulgarian uh factories basically owners okay we just got uh dobruggia back excellent uh fun fact when germany proposed to romania to give up the bridge to bulgaria i think the soviet union was also in that deal proposing that they should give all of the bridges to bulgaria but the romanians were not on board with this deal of course so they only opted for southern du bruja and the deal was that bulgaria would actually purchase the territory and give you know money to romania and also they will have to join the axis because we got the territory that was the full deal and yeah we did we joined the axis why um why the axis part why did you have to join the axis why did bulgaria have to join the axis uh germany was on our border and kind of pointing a gun at us so yeah because by this point germany has invaded yugoslavia no that's at the end of 1940 right uh no they invade yugoslavia after we join because they have now our borders to attack from and they wanted to do a multi-prong attack from hungary germany italian territories of course and then bulgaria just to make it faster because they were rushing for barbarossa you know so germany was brokering this transylvanian agreement then also brokered the drabruggia turnover at the same time yeah just to win more allies in the region to secure hungary and bulgaria later in at the expense of romania yeah stormtrooper i've okay we're going to rebuild the army i played as romania before it's a little challenging same because you got king carol to contest with and he's really pretty nice lifestyle but it's not cheap to maintain okay there it goes romania just dropped off okay nice um let me get these bad boys out and 16 by the way the air force pretty decent we're gonna get we got the bombers right we got the bombers and i actually took fighters as well though ah okay it wouldn't hurt i think they wait ag-51 the heinz 51 uh no these are our starting fighters the ht4848 interwar fighters we start with them all right we'll see what we can do here i have no idea like this might not work at all we should call the allies our allies correct i don't know i want to be greedy though but i guess look at all those divisions that they have i think you are correct uh no no actually since we're in the access the the yugoslavian divisions are gonna be spread out on all their borders because uh they're surrounded by the axis and they're gonna have less divisions on our border so we're gonna push them pretty easily but yeah since the allies join in they're gonna have reinforcements and it's better to go in the axis the the access avengers yeah so we'll do that i can i kind of got the sense that we weren't going to be able to do a lot here i mean we have plenty of divisions we can push them we probably have better superiority by now uh yes i allow them i mean i don't know why they've even asked where in the access was it historically uh bulgaria didn't really allow them to um access i don't you know i don't know i mean we did not want to go to war so we just allowed the germans to attack through our territories and the germans were all fine with this the funny thing is that we took the territories they conquered without even fighting gotcha well the other thing that we didn't do we didn't uh ask for our claims or whatever so i just did that german reich recognizes our claims on macedonia slate thrace central macedonia and one other pre-arranged bulgarian territorial expansion uh yes territories i told you about now they have this flag on them if you select for example macedonia you're gonna see that they have a little modifier on them i think it's called pre-arranged bulgarian expansion and once uh either italy or germany demand not demand they occupy them they're gonna transfer them to us because of this uh flag they have and since i did not went with the axis uh hitler demands to replace kyocevanov which is our prime minister i believe dude that stability gain in the political power gain uh we can improve the stability in other ways i believe boris can visit cities and stuff what if i did what if i just say like no i'm not gonna replace him uh gets eventboards the third refuse expect to replace kyocevanov no idea okay let's try that one i mean i don't want to get rid of him he's really good and then what is hitler gonna do he's in our war now baby um historically i don't have any intel on this historically they murdered him basically they murdered boris boris wouldn't do what they what they asked it's not proven it's not proven but it's proven that the boris and hitler were in pretty good relations throughout the whole war uh they were only disagreeing on the jews and uh what was it oh yeah barbarossa maybe one of the isla the uh the allied spies got to him or something who knows so yeah uh about his death so he visited hitler and a few days after the visit he died i thought it was while he was getting off the plane brother and then there are no coincidences if that happened in that sequence i thought it was right as he got off the plane he started having problems or something uh problems yeah but he did not get critical so the quick assumption is of course germany uh but the other two suspects are the soviet union why because he was suppressing pretty hard socialists and the communists in bulgaria and you know coop the enemy's leader and they got disorganized and the others the other is the allies because again we were their enemy and the fast if they can kill our leader they can disorganize her much faster but the allies do not make sense because boris was making actually diplomatic visits to i believe egypt and other places like switzerland not by himself of course he sends diplomats to make contact with the allies to peace out so it doesn't make sense to beat them it's more leaning towards the soviets because they they knew they're gonna come eventually to bulgaria they were pushing the germans by that point hmm yeah i don't know i mean but the first assumption is germany because he came back from germany now he has health issues it's probably them but it's not proven if someone in the chat has more uh intel on this i don't mind reading about it it's definitely an interesting subject you do bring up a good point we don't know definitively anything so looks like we are able to push here so i'm gonna go ahead and do so yeah they're gonna fall pretty soon but yeah it has been so long ago and uh if it happened today for example the medical stuff and equipment is much better we would have figured out everything right away but it's been 70 or more years ago it's pretty hard to find the real suspect about this matter right now well they they could do an autopsy but you know the body is missing that's the other problem oh really what happened what happened there the communists after they make the coup in bulgaria 1944 september 9th i believe they kind of you know make a purge and also destroyed boris's grave literally all right maybe it was the communist because they knew it's like don't let him dig up this grave oh you know what you know why it's not working i don't have the guy down here i don't have the cavalry genius damn it dude we gotta i gotta write this down but there's an op build in here someplace i just need to sequence things properly because there was no push i'm like where's all the push oh and this guy didn't even upgrade look yeah you will need to organize things before you go to war uh look at this look at all these upgrades even if they nerf bulgaria i believe there's still a good strategy about it many things sync in which with each other very well and uh if things sink out sink in you can make a good strategy we're suffering from a little bit of attrition is this the uk owns this albania uh yes jesus every single time dude the italians gotta get their navy involved there it's crazy and the italians are like what navy well at this point i think the british flew over from malta and sunk uh the main battleship over there in toronto with uh biplanes ah the what was their name the swordfish the swordfish the classic they even sank the bismarck these swordfish biplanes i think they were torpedo bombers pretty devastating weapon for the battleship uh no this is just the ai doing silly stuff best stormtrooper the silly ai being the italians oh i just gave land back to the italians forget that let's uh get more protective here um yeah i think that the god the era of the battleship was definitely over in world war ii there we go i mean you have so many ways to sync it and it is so expensive and material cost not only in money so it's a waste basically yeah for sure and the thing is like especially in like hearts of iron four like you're not gonna be able to contend with english navy say if you're like germany so all you're trying to do is concentrate your air force and your navy to get amphibious landings because you're never gonna be able to go head-to-head um the naval mechanics of hearts of iron 4 in my opinion is more for japan and england initially than japan versus the us i don't play a lot of navy i just made one here with germany and i was happy i mean if you're really into navy carriers carrier air aircraft like i think they did a wonderful job um in terms of like japan like i really like the far east um combat and everything it's great um yes you can destroy the british navy with germany because dive bombers i believe are still pretty good through air power right i was just mentioning um navy to navy i don't think it's possible maybe to navy i don't believe you can contest the british navy if you don't uh start with a good navy already and it has to be said that um okay we have we have macedonia and southern serbia okay so we have our lands but going back to the the tactics england put their navy up in scapa flow so they did know to get away from the german luftwaffe like they knew that um that wasn't like a new thing and they were doing all these like air raids that were actually successful so they had a lot of intel that they were probably the first uh navy to know that carriers were gonna be a thing and um they implemented the carriers very well in my opinion but they did get the navy like up here i believe that's gap of flow uh to get away from the air force and you could do that too in hearts of iron four but the ai doesn't and i'm pretty sure i don't know i'm pretty sure that the way hearts of iron 4 works is if you want to defend against an amphibious assault you kind of have to have the naval vessels in here or spread out over a bunch of areas maybe chat knows the answer to that i mean you need some naval superior uh i think it's called superiority uh to make the navy invasion so if you can contest the navy they might not have enough to do the naval innovation you might not kill their navy you just need to contest it to have uh to prevent their naval superiority just subs okay that works protect from naval invention okay andvari says that we need just subs oh it's across i have seen it in youtube's videos i think who was it feedback gaming playing japan and he invaded the us only with uh submarines all the way to the west coast to secure the naval superiority only submarines that's hilarious i mean he does find the best ways to beat the game i don't know but a lot of those are kind of mimi yes but didn't say historical or proper you know they're playing regular i don't know no one out it seems to me maybe there is someone that advertises playing in elite mode but you know i always get dismissed like oh you're playing an elite mode that just means things take longer and i'm like yeah that's the point is that i'm still able to get things done quickly but no one else is really doing the elite mode thing i think it does matter a lot but i don't know it does matter i think you have very substantial penalties on elite and you're still doing stuff yeah that's i like to play on max difficulty because i mean pessimists would say like oh the ai is dumb of certain strategy games and things like that and i agree and in a way you're just figuring out exploits against the ai for sure yeah but i think it's not necessarily easy it's just after time like if someone's figured it out and you copy them um yeah that's easy but if you figure them out by yourself it's i think it's interesting so that's what i like to do i try not to watch too many of like that i don't use exploit so it doesn't matter i'll watch an exploit video like i find feedbacks uh videos are interesting um it just i won't use the exploit so it doesn't really matter but in terms of like strict tactics and things like that i try not to watch that because i try to come to my own conclusions yeah it's more fun that way to figure out things by yourself uh also pioneers even in real life the first people to do something they're usually not very encouraged by their neighbors or peers but in the end if they achieve something everybody's gonna upload them for that not immediately probably but eventually they're gonna be praised for their achievement i think there's a message for you in the chat on avare the last one custom difficulty options are harder than elite yep and there is the someone messaged me about the uh hardcore ai maybe it's not called hardcore but there's a mod that basically makes the ai a lot better i would like to start getting into games like that i guess i don't know they're i'll try it off off stream but you can still play with it to see if it really is better i here it is i'm pretty confident that it is it's called expert ai that's what it's called oh yeah expert i know that one but the uh it's into it's also navarre you you must be a panzer core guy too i'm pretty sure because you can do custom difficulty on panzer core and they actually have it's interesting to me that they have munstein guderian and rommel difficulties just like they had in pains or core one they have that in panzer core 2 except you don't need to unlock them you just get them from the beginning of the game and they incorporated iron man mode into panzer core 2 which is from hearts of iron so they copied it a little bit which i'm glad they did i think that this is the first game that i've you know had seen that has the concept of iron man mode i always wanted that do you think they have that in civilization no because that was the always the way you game the game is you just you know use a backup save or whatever i don't believe there is a panzerkorn no no panzer corpse corpse i don't know why you skip some letters in english but the panzer corpse uh because corpse means a dead body but yeah but you write it that way well i think it's french but we adopted that so we come from revolutionary times and so i think a lot of our military is based on french military thinking i could be john i'm probably going off on a tangent here but core corpse or core as we pronounce it is a french military term that we adopted as far as i know your history yes americans were in love with the french army before world war one so you kind of copied them in some ways yeah which hello yeah deity i think i beat the only deity meat mode that i beat civilization on was civ 2. that's not the chemical it could have been see it's so long i can't remember i i beat deity once c3 was the most popular at one point uh and that's actually the first civilization game i started to play it could have been i can't even remember c3 i remember civ 2 for the uh the world war ii mod of that which was excellent and it's kind of like this game a little bit actually can you can you read what vicio vichev just just wrote it says hello okay hello vito all right what just happened c5 yeah i agree but only with all the dlcs jay thanks for the follow that alert is so loud dude i love it i love it to keep you awake because i bet it's very late in america yeah i just think as i told you before man like it's nice to learn how to stream i've learned so many skills and now i'm slowly incorporating stuff like the the alerts and stuff right oh crap now they're going to invade us um but anyway like if if i hadn't been in this time zone i would have had a much more a much better advantage because i mean we're on like even getting the dlc i'm the last person that gets the dlc like feedback had a game out feedback had a video out like a day ago like no he got he got an early version it was not the full dlc many youtubers got one oh okay i was looking at that but i was like he probably could have got that you know downloaded it earlier no no no they got early access versions just to make theosis similar to how they gave early access keys to some people for uh crusader kingstree yeah i need that i need to get that paradox dev connection but it's just not big enough yet to uh they haven't approached me with any of that stuff yet but uh slytherin with panzer core yes i definitely put the time in to that game just improve relations with paradox they're gonna agree eventually if it was that easy if there was a improved relations button i would hit it okay so my plan is is uh not good because now we don't like i could take mainland greece or i guess i could wait i mean we're not in a rush we're gonna either germany or italy are gonna invade greece oh they just attacked us actually italy attacked them they finished their focus probably so basically we started we could have waited to go into yugoslavia and we could have saved political power just by waiting because we needed our allies help anyways so yeah they basically to me i think it's going to be really hard to get away from historical uh i mean if we go fascists we kind of improve the industry much faster uh but i'm not sure about the stability how it's gonna go i have not tried communism or democracy one one guy in the chat i think said that democracy doesn't work in bulgaria i think it was tellius and communism you just align yourself with the common uh with the ussr and you'll probably have to [Music] survive an onslaught unless you find better ways to expand early and make that balkan confederation let me check the focuses okay so this is non-aligned so yes democratic or even non-aligned you can approach the uk join the allies and then you have options to assert our claims consolidate the third bulgarian state fight tyranny obliterate bolshevik threat and three balkan states yeah so you have options to expand as the allies form the broken confederation probably there are options or you can just go follow the stalinist doctrine and completely become a puppet of stalin that's that's hard you're kind of pinched right here it's our geography we cannot change it i mean they are at least on the other side of hungary and romania that's nice and then turkey if we're playing historical now should just stay out of the war so grace is a a good bet let's get that cavalry guy and then i'm pretty sure we can run through these guys like no problem they've got tanks so here's the ai being silly they got tanks in the mountains so they're going to suffer from attrition italy used tanks in the mountains uh but their tanks were specially adapted for mountains so they were not suffering attrition but the germans only stick to roads and mountain passes not uh directly into the mountains so they just use their brains to advance to through greece and vary says okay so the us started using corpse in 1862 i know during this time the americans had adopted and used napoleon army tactics and names for their units so america was impressed by napoleon it seems but i also think america liked france especially before world war one because france actually helped you guys to get independence from the uk during your war for independence and that's why america was so hyped about the french before world war one because from one video i he said it like this america was in love with france because of these things but when they saw their performance in world war one they kind of realized that the french are not perfect he put it like this yeah i think it was um the the american revolution sparked the french revolution but the american revolution ideals was based on french thinking um revolutionary thought and um the french helped us out militarily in the the revolutionary war um the civil war to me is there was probably a massive reorganization of the military at that point but um it's a pretty weird war to you know fight over slavery so late in the in the world timeline it's kind of embarrassing to to be honest with you that's right i'm sorry andrew yes uh welcome and yes i did mention the american revolution and how the french supported them with all kinds of things and yes they were closer to france because the uk you know they fought wars against the uk so that's why they are closer to france so pressure of the balkans uh controls all these provinces are you looking at this non-core manpower five percent recruitable population factory five percent division recovery rate 10 justify war goal time negative 50 percent so this turns on your military it's maximum income because it seems uh let me see it myself okay army experience gain and naval experience gained this is good but it's nothing too special non-core manpower i think this is the biggest plus because you're gonna have some non-core territories the triple population is not a flat flat manpower it's a factor and the division recovery is also nice but the rest is kind of useless shot you uh because you're not purchasing new generals and justify war go time is also useless because you're ready at war with everyone you want to hey chewie good to see you man god it really hurts us because we don't have we have no capabilities of making a mountain division uh yes we don't start with the research i believe let's get one more a.t that we're up against tanks now all of a sudden so it was a good thing i went into 80 and then we have extra artillery yeah we have plenty of artillery plenty of support i mean it is not as should i say it it's not as dramatic as your last stream when you played my mod but i bet that the next stream when you play bulgaria whichever that time is you're gonna have a much better idea what you you have to do for sure we're just exploring it in this stream figuring out how ob this purchase for foreign equipment this it is i mean i just don't need it right now because we have no push ability i guess i guess i do need that but what i need is the aircraft so i need to get that aircraft ice pump the aircraft constantly because we're not getting the aircraft in other ways we need to focus our industry on uh the ground army chewie did i say hi to you sorry if i forgot well you have decent industry if we could get a good like a nice holding early on that would be great and like look we don't have a tank division no although we now possess tanks can we go can we no don't get any ideas well i guess i could just research tanks and that would give us a tank division uh yeah that's a one way to do it dude look at this like battleground greece over here french warfare germany's got to want addition like if we could have taken yugoslavia earlier because look they just take north africa so quick like the italians just don't put up a fight in north africa anymore i mean albania was british a few months ago so i don't know it's weird man wait okay we have five i thought we had six researches i'm really tired i'm seeing double fighter twos why not don't have enough uh doesn't it cost extra aluminum uh three to one or two to one no it doesn't okay i'm getting i think fighter one was two aluminium and the next are just three no it looks like they they modified it it was three and three oh no no i mean inter-war fighter was too aluminium and one rubber yep and the rest was three aluminium so we pretty much have a stalemate here uh on vire says that we should get a license from germany for the tank good idea our research is the license production is not as good as producing our own variants hello scampi it's gonna be he's back good to see you man he's even waving from his profile picture what if i just got like the light tractor uh you get bonus research for it can we get other tanks it looks like we could i don't know if they give them to us they're actually giving us other tanks manage license production okay say i want panzer iv the best what is the latest model it would take me seven uh sieves though whoa yeah you have problems there did they change that was it always that expensive i don't know because i'm usually playing as germany so i'm like and i usually just like light tanks you're like people usually give me it's a billion factor it's not the other way around yeah and i never build into panzer fours because by now like my playthroughs are basically done i don't really like grinding it out unless you have a good manufacturer the license should be better uh i would disagree it might be better in uh stats but you have a negative modifier in like 25 35 percent production speed yeah andrea says it oh chewy euros from bulgaria can you say that with a russian accent is it in nostravia did i do that right uh come again uh so you said nos dravia okay okay i confused the two they are similar they basically mean the same thing like wishing the other to be healthy it's not really hello it's like you see someone and be healthy that's what you're saying that's the greeting that's a good one and uh cheers nazdrave is like wishing uh you're drinking for a good health basically and you're wishing it to the others you're like lifting the cups the glasses and everybody's for good health for good health yay and start drinking um so i found this contract foreign companies uh this is good this is good military cooperation agreement with the german reich what i mean does that give us licenses that's what i'm thinking it's going to be interesting to get this i think this unlocks decisions to improve if you go to your designers you're going to see foreign companies and i think these decisions improve these designers you just need to make the focus and decisions connect to them so i can get units from the imro imro imro garrison duties uh i clicked that one it was not really useful because you get divisions that you cannot change and they're not very useful they're more like garrison divisions like they seem pretty similar to the british colonial divisions if you have played with the british they're just i think six battalions of infantry but they start as regulars training level but you cannot change them so i just picked the other one because it gives me flatman power no i actually i did not click that i wish to click it okay so there's only resistance in this area right here okay chat says that we don't even have to attack and we could take over grace and hugo it's true but yet what's weird here is we're at war with grace and we can't take him like this is kind of weirding me out right now because we're on historical why when the axis attack into them i i don't get it they're still building up their battle plan or something like that uh bulgarian empire is op i'm gonna check it right now set rule can create factions plotive gets two military factories two infrastructure adds one building slot one civilian factory and one infrastructure in three historical states retaken and court by bulgaria gains annex war goal against turkey that's nice dang yeah that one [Music] yeah how are we gonna get down there though ah easy total war okay but total war you we have to be f uh fascist so we gotta kick requires one of the following vulgarization of the balkans so this is okay that one and the other is total war so there is a peaceful way to go to it it's just slower you make one more focus and balcorization campaigns i guess this is scoring a bunch of territories with decisions which is very useful so yeah we joined the axis uh why do i why can i can't i don't hitler if you can explain in chat that would be very useful you need to research peaceful interactions before going to work andrew wants to zoom out to see how big the focus tree is i mean it's a decent size and you can do all the different political things that you want man you can just really rack up stability if you stick with the man or the monarchist um that's right speak his comment let's go through this i was not expecting this to be stuck here in greece and there's no way we can push across oh we need this veno we purged him hmm okay so i just want to see what contract foreign companies does for us okay get dive bombing so we have decent boost to research you could research mountaineer disband your army and just make 40 width of those as always good ideas good ideas so is that our issue here we didn't research mountaineers that why didn't i think of that uh because we were busy with politics yeah there's so much it's so bright so andrew your early game as bulgaria is not uh you won't be busy with the army because you cannot do anything with it your early game is gonna be playing this mini game of suppressing factions that you don't like basically and improving your stability and your support that's the early game of bulgaria maybe for two years you can finish it if you know what you're doing but otherwise i think we finished playing it in 1939 mid summer or something okay so we got the this is what we just unlocked with that focus three military cooperation agreement with the german reich 30 days negative political power game consumer good factories to 25 available design company opel i read all of them i think the german ones are the best because you get the propositions from the soviet union and the allies the soviet union focuses more on rocket artillery the allies on i think it was tanks maybe fast tanks i don't i don't remember their specific modifiers but i think it was tanks oriented and the germans are but they're uh as design companies so that means i have to they come over here and they're available over here i'm pretty sure yeah there they are yeah that just looked ah that's pretty that's pretty expensive for just a design company because we have to pay for this then we got to pay for the design company again yeah uh james the air over greece is probably red because we're out of few yeah i saw that james could you see man it might have been a good idea to if we knew we're gonna join the axis and support their work with greece we might have built some airfields for them oh yeah now you can do a war industry you save a bunch of political power and gain a bunch of factors by doing this but if we go fascist we can't do this uh i think you can but boris is gonna stay you're not doing the other focus what is it called pose that's our yeah you're not doing it so this effectively gives us 150 political power i could have done this immediately as well so if we could go to war successfully against yugoslavia and then immediately get this look at we get four military factories and then we get war economy it didn't cost us any political power to get i mean at that point we're pretty functional uh war machine at that point but it's all it's going to be all about how do you get the war against yugoslavia in 1938 and then how do you actually win it you have to unlock your your army and everything like that so i mean if it's that easy to just do two foxes and then two decisions so that the uk can allow you to rearm you can do it pretty early knowing that communists just came back damn it uh yeah i think it's because chad said that we're gonna need the political power because of the barbarossa offensive and probably the communists are reacting right now because we went to war with the soviets i believe root out the fatherland sympathizers i mean you have a fair amount of political power but all these things are popping up we just need to min max the political power the use of the political power one more reason i'm not joining the axis i mean it didn't seem like we got that much german aircraft to me so like if i purchased 20 so we got 40. we did that three times i thought oh we got the measure schmidt so maybe the third time i went measure schmidt that's what i did yeah that's what i did i mean i purchased only tactical bombers because i was producing all the other fighters myself so i had a pretty good fleet of tactical bombers for that they're good but here's the thing it gives you 40 fighters or 20 tack bombers right so fighters they give us measurements that's 24 production what is the production of me1 tens is that what they are i forget me 162 is a fighter one for germany so it's the same as ours but again we're not having the best industry to produce in large numbers quickly man look at those variants yeah heinz 111 sorry that's what i meant and it's 37 okay 37 as opposed to 22 is that what i said uh yes you're actually going to come ahead if you take the fighters in that case 24. i chose the tactical bombers because first gas and second tactical bombers are quite expensive to produce as bulgaria that's why i focus my factories on fighters maybe in that picture of the the heinz 111s in the loading screen going over turkey maybe it's us maybe it's bulgaria uh it was from the trailer it's germany they're attacking all of the balkan nations for some reason old history james suggests that you get few andrew suggests that you don't make great war tanks yeah i know man i'm just messing around at this point yeah there's no point to making tanks we took some tanks from germany um so we should have those in stockpile what do they give us again dude light tanks pans or two b's ft-17s maybe i created those nah probably we captured the french one from uh yugoslavia and the panzer twos are 80 so they're they're probably from the decision from germany yeah i wouldn't take tanks from germany just to conserve all the political power i don't even know if you should take uh vehicles or it's probably best to change the base template here and just take out the motorized and then build off from from there i would suggest because i have put one factory from the start of the game on motorized i had one like 100 in 1 600 motorized by uh going to war with greece so if i for example purchased a few times light tanks from germany i would have had a proper tank division by this point before going to war with greece so there are some powerful strategies right here and then james brings up the point you don't have fuel so so there's a major problem with going motorized because you'll run out of fuel you need all the fuel for the the planes for sure you can get some from romania for example or the middle east tim thanks for joining you will see a full panzer core 2 campaign we're on karkov i've got like 15 000 uh prestige so we're definitely gonna go to usa west coast um okay but what is the fuel consumption between the fighter one this is another thing fuel consumption is an issue fuel usage is point two whereas the heinchil 111 what's the fuel consumption i don't worry about it because in my mod you actually have decisions to improve your fuel production which we actually had oh it's only 0.3 that's not as bad well i guess it is a third more it's you know 33 percent more you multiply it because you are gonna have a lot of fighters gaining uh using more fuel oh that's true you're gonna have double the the fighters so you're basically going to have like 33 percent more if i did the quick math in my head right fuel consumption but you'll have more fighters true and better fighters if you get them from germany like you don't have to research them at all they should have made the decision to gain aircraft from czechoslovakia it was historical really i mean it's my in my mod i got the idea from somewhere right gotcha well i mean it makes sense a lot of military production was from the skoda works right in czechoslovakia so they were selling their goods all over the place they were pretty popular with their exports i think they even have a focus about it or three let me check do you want a big or a weird focus tree look at this look at turkey man what is what happened oh this is also huge andrew are you seeing this turkey also has a huge focus tree dude that's weird at least it's more organized than the bulgarian one you can clearly see what leads to what greece is so small still yeah it might be the smallest one of the three it is i mean it's it's bigger than the generic template it's definitely bigger turkey has five parts okay so that's why we're not gonna use most of them probably andrew says greece is appropriately sized in his opinion personally like the greece focus tree because of how simple and organized it is and i hate the bulgarian one because it's so all over the place yeah that's why i like italy and everyone jogs on me for that right on that italy not again i'm just like it's so simple it's so simple it's like half of this like italy's focus tree is half of this i kind of it's it's kind of like calming i guess or if it feels satisfying when you know like okay this is small i can figure this out like it's not like it's not it's not this huge strange uh weirdly path focus three when you have to spend like half an hour to figure out what leads to what and then forget something because it's not easy to find later well thank you so much for being on this stream because if you weren't here i would have been lost like there's no way and then we both figured out this little cross over here like what the heck is that dude that one really threw me for a loop because i was like i want to get down here uh but we figured it out i mean i told you i tried the doc last night with one friend of mine he was he's also bulgarian we're both bulgarian and we're sitting there reading all this and we're like what the heck are we supposed to do here who do we support who do we suppress uh now which is the next focus we should do we're like sitting there trying to figure it out it was terrible i think that overall this is what you do you stay over here you get you stick with boris i know that there's some military factories in here and i know getting down here is super op but you could be working over here with a lot of op stuff over here as well and getting the technology because the technology is going to be very important great field is on board with your uh love for the italian focus tree so you have one ally here team italy dude me and craig field are like kindred spirits we have he's got some crazy ideas like me but uh okay okay there we go three people like-minded individuals i love it nice credit field's uh grand battle playing doctrine guy though that's where oh my god i like it as well i think it's a good doctrine but it's not the best that's the thing i'm gonna say we got to redo this but we got to do this with all cav take out anything except for like um anything that burns fuel except for our air force or else it's going to completely run down our economy like just ignore the trucks do we have some foxes that add a few fuel production to bulgaria do you know that you can actually get rid of your stockpile of things uh yes i think they are in some many patches ago i think that what does that even do like why is that it's so funny that that's a thing i mean it's much better to convert it than delete it exactly i think the new heartsvaran4 does not have that feature for every equipment but some mods do allow it to convert like even old guns to new guns i mean that's where they should be going i'm sure that they're going that way now did you mention just deleting them just delete them just to make them better i think they just do that because if you delete the stockpile it probably helps with lag issues and si you know situationally you know i'm not sure but you said there was some place to get uh oil resources on the focus tree i was asking because i didn't see any no i think you have to use civilian factories which is another vote to get you know for your civilian factory build but i'd probably go back do all mills and get the civilian factories from yugoslavia and then there's some down here too consumer good factories negative five right there but yeah i would stick over here get all this done and then as soon as you go to war go to war as quickly as possible and get war industry there's a few other goodies to get but then there's incredibly powerful things that unlocks your military right there uh-huh so you need to do that before war adolf uh dp is a democratic party you need to gain support for it for some foxes it's a requirement dp's democratic party massassault germany plus tank poland is is a an mp yeah dude but we can never find a time to play mp eventually though man eventually one day it's gonna happen well all right guys it's it's midnight here i got to get going but thanks everyone for stopping by i really appreciate it and um thank you pillbox20 for uh hanging out with me here is a lot of fun and uh this definitely wouldn't have been as good of a stream without you because you explained a lot for me you know and for the viewers i'm happy to keep happy to be helping uh a friendly person yeah thanks man and um yeah i'll dm you later and uh everyone you guys have a good night or morning whatever whatever part of the world you're in thanks chewie for stopping by thanks craig field coming thanks adolf for your contributions to andrew anavari you guys all have a good night ciao everyone
