HOI4 Germany- The God Emperor's Challenge- Live Stream

[Music] [Music] so so so [Music] so [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] all right let's start up the live stream guys today we're going to be playing hearts of iron 4 on elite iron man mode with historical ai you guess by the title it's germany and today we're going to be completing the god emperor's challenge the god emperor is uh one of my followers on discord and what he proposed the other day was that germany takes all cores holds gives back the rest of the territory holds out as long as they can which after i thought about it for a while is quite intriguing because i've never done anything like that in this game so we're gonna stay fascist keep people mad at us so they keep attacking us and we're just gonna we're just gonna hold off like a fighter going into like the 12th round we're gonna see how it goes here all right so let's start it up day by day san marino parker good to see you guys thank god emperor it's a good name okay let's start off with the classic germany build here how are you guys doing today has school started up again for you guys oops this should be cooler hi cool bear good to see you man we're going to be taking core territories only hickory hick good to see you man no amphibious landings this time school night football tomorrow all right you guys didn't want my fantasy football draft so i didn't show it to you it was fun though it was a good one i have tom brady i want the tom brady route i think i got him in round 11 12 or something like that i took the running back for kc sixth or seventh in the draft forget what slot i was in it's going to be an interesting year we had to add two ir slots to our our fantasy lineup just in case people got ir'd for kovid so this is the first league that i've had that has ir slots in it and i like fantasy football because it's basically like it is a strategy game which is awesome because there's tons of people that play fantasy football in the us and then all my european viewers have no idea what it is which is fine there's no no football in europe do we get this i always missed this one put them over research so we're going to be a little offensive in a lot defensive so we got to think about this craig field good to see you man we're only going to be taking core states core territories and holding on to them try to see how long we can hold out so we will be going dispersed industry for this build i think construction is probably good to go it's a good one to have and then we will be doing the westby build i don't know if you guys know about this one it only takes 59 days you can convert your panzer ones from stockpile into westby's fairly cheap it's the way to go for a build like this i think and then we need to just simply get a lot of iron so let's reorganize [Music] that putting these in order okay so that's 18. and then getting the aluminum is going to really help us let's get some mills and then some refineries will come later let me think about this i don't need opal billets i don't need this we're not going to be going long distances so we're just going to stick with fighters and casts i guess we could build into them later and let's stick with them we don't have to worry about getting piercing for a while actually so we can grow into this because we're not going to go into russia let's organize our navy it's gonna be raider donuts okay let's give these ships a home vihan good to see you man we're gonna go disperse today for sure okay that's what i was thinking of so if you go molotov ribbon trough early the soviets will declare on poland wait the soviets will declare in poland give you half a pole in his core territory we're gonna have to look at that lewis good to see you man jaguar me are you a fan of the jaguars when's the civilian fact i build plenty of civilian factories look at this look at all these civilian factories they just look like rail railroads but they're actually civilian factories why because i get all these resources that i have to trade for civilian factories so i count them as civilian factories they're as good as civilian factories tons of civilian factories being built right now resources for days we're gonna have to be what it what is that spirit we're gonna have to go the spirit of artarky autarky because we're gonna be pissing off everyone everyone's gonna want a piece of germany this is gonna be awesome it's gonna be like a rocky fight and i do expect to get into heavy tanks okay cancel that yeah the factory bomb vulnerability okay credit field let's work this out real quick okay so i don't know what the build is here i can rush and loose which is actually not optimal because austria has the basic focus tree they're going to build into a lot of mills early it's better to go unchallenged late we've proven that i think i did a video on it um and then we get core if we go demand slovenia right that's the other thing that i don't know or do we get core down here in a second lujana award carve up grease logs krakov pluck i believe do a combined tiger panther tank build you should do build where you can only build civilian factories and other stuff can only come through conquest and focuses what's the point then icarrick we can just go steal civilian factories from other countries slovenia is not a core hey electro good to see you man so we can't do this i thought this was going to be a core demand it if they hand it over to me though isn't it handed over in the the form of a core probably not huh probably not if i remember correctly the tricky part is how do you get all these to fire properly i mean sudetenland should become should just be given to us this should all become core like when we go fade to checklist slovakia that should be given to us so that should be core okay molotov ribbon trough is down here so maybe we go straight down here and then come over to danziger war divide poland between soviet union and germany okay let's go this first so we'll go rhineland army innovations treaty with ussr and molotov riventrov pact and we'll try to pump out as many divisions as possible if you guys were looking at my older builds i've changed and now i spawn all my forces in berlin because they will receive equipment quicker for the ancillus exploit but we're not going to do that for this one but still i'm just going to pop them out over there okay only sudanese and eastern sudan are coors so then should i stop so if we get the rest of the country it's not a core but i could turn it into a puppet you don't attack the poles stay neutral so i have to wait till the soviets attack do i get danzig though hello linux austria sudetenland slovenia luxembourg also on slaughtering danzig poznan not playing uh multiplayer this is the god emperor's challenge and the god emperor is a username for one of my viewers and basically what he said is uh only take cores and then hold on i'm not gonna form the axis alliance with italy and um we're just going to i don't think we can do a sea lion i haven't been able to complete a sea lion without bringing italy and vichy france into the war we could probably get away with just uh allying with italy it's going to be a little tough to get into france without italy but it shouldn't be too too like it shouldn't be impossible beyond the god emperor is you well then please tell us am i missing something here in your build let's get this going prickle man good to see ya okay so v hun you can get pose none where's post on right here why am i blanking on poznan or is posing on down here that's slovenia i hate the fact that there's so many platforms people's names are different so i like get so confused about who is who no i understand poznan is under danzig so can you confirm uh what credfield's saying i know that so this if the soviets attack into poland with molotov ribbon trough uh do we then get all those as course do we get half of uh poland as core because i would hate to go through all that for it not to be core get the west be in here and then it's going to convert from stockpile the panzer ones so it can only go down and for some reason i get this a lot but it doesn't make much sense to me people are telling me that you can convert laterally from light tank 2 to westby i've never had that happen i've never been able to reproduce that but i keep getting comments people telling me that they can convert yeah just laterally within the tech focus so in other words if i just built out the westby i can only convert from a tank that's one research behind or one chassis behind me so pans are one only and that's what i have on my videos you get half of poland the soviets get an event honor the pack to the molotov riven trough pack they hand half of poland to you as core except warsaw not all of poland is core thanks louis what's my real name uh it's devin with a d-e-v-i-n okay so are we getting okay you guys decide in chat which way we go i'm gonna keep playing are we gonna let the soviets attack into poland because you know i'm all attacking to poland all day that's not an issue it's not a problem you guys know me i love attacking dude his pillbox gonna be on tonight i was watching pillbox play today he was playing his bulgari mod it was pretty fun he's been playing like every day on uh my discord and i've been able during my lunch break to to watch him play it's been pretty fun let's go and devin levin devin the divine you hate devins what how many devons can you possibly know hey homer i know that word used to auto correct my name into devil okay credfield v hun you gotta tell me dude guys which way are we gonna go i know you guys don't wanna to go judgment call we know if i attack into them that i can just keep the core on danzig and then the country will look we'll just get that province right there it won't be a big deal let's go army innovations and then of course free trade i get a lot of devinator i get a lot of devon poland first migrate the germans to brazil okay so v han this is your not your challenge but you mentioned it so we'll go with uh what vyond v han says unless credit field you know for a fact um that we're going to be able to get core on all the territory and that might be a long wait yeah we got that we can get all sons lorraine in luxembourg from the focus tree i got that so i'm gonna be attacking into france instant capitulate them v using paratroopers i mean so if we go back on this so what does the molotr molotov ribbon trough pack give me then does it give me core i don't think it gives me core so there's no point in getting it it just helps out the soviets so i mean we could easily go back to ancillus after this the thing the reason why i don't like the peras in this case is because we're not going to attack again right it could be used in a set piece situation but i want to make this like as good of a tech build as possible [Applause] okay credfield which way which way are we going here molotov guarantees the events that give you funnies let's do it i want to see what what happens then okay so we go molotov of ramen trough and then we just wait so then we're gonna go okay we're gonna go france first all right don't cross the river stay on one side of the river it's all these guys plans no of course not so this is going to be quite interesting okay if you guys are just joining we're only going to take course this is the god emperor's challenge to me the hans challenge and then we're going to hold out against the rest of the world the soviets should invade eventually we're not going to do a sea lion i don't think that it's uh tenable we're not going to go into any allies with the axis pillbox there we go thomas mueller versus lionel messi do an alliance with ussr for the meme it's really hard to get a girlfriend if you play hoy4 don't tell me play hoy fort don't tell the girl you play hoi4 don't tell the girl that you're dating that you play hoy 4 let her find out after she's your girlfriend just springing on her she'll figure out one day when she sees you so you want to come around i don't know if we go france first i think we got it cradfield without a lot of a lot of flashy stuff i think we got it i took you by surprise v hun there's not a focus trick for getting a girlfriend we should make one that should be a mod hoi 4 girlfriend simulator okay so this is going to be very interesting okay tradie with the ussr we'll get molotov ribbon trough packed right off the bat i think i'm gonna have time let's see here though but i have to go danziger hold up so i have to go danziger war and then just not declare war right so that's not a big deal let's get borman you naval invade uh kalei rush paris oh i almost went dispersed or i'm sorry concentrated i can't even say dispersed industry it's like a dirty word on this channel okay who needs more troops rommel was seven something like that take away one of those because i think we're only going to be able to make four because we're gonna get a mountain division from austria so yeah i think we only need seven more divisions okay we should have enough manpower in the field yep how much way for playtime couple thousand hours well more than a more than a couple i don't know i haven't checked in a while but probably around four or five thousand and destin versus esg i've talked to dustin before he's a nice guy how many of you guys caught the weird stream that showed up earlier today i know san marino did he was trolling me earlier but i don't know why that happened i just created the stream and it and it it defaulted back to a previous previous stream and it started up and that happened to me once before i think it's happening to um mr terry as well because i see some of his vids out for like a minute or something like that i think as soon as you like re-up the stream it's like pulling in like a pass it must be a glitch on on youtube thanks lewis but did you get so that hit the uh so the whole thing with the the speed run that i did like a few streams ago was actually that what what i found out from it was that if you don't go construction and obviously you don't go sieves uh there was a lot to be had by not researching construction whatsoever because the construction is basically uh useless you're stealing all the construction that other countries are building and since they don't have the penalties that you do to construction because we're on elite mode right so what's the penalty maybe there is no penalty to construction i know there's a penalty to production though production efficiency cap negative 30 percent and then there's a research maybe that's more of what it is you have to conserve your research slots because of the elite difficulty it's okay guys i understand if you have to go concentrated industry is better for small countries with less research slots oh it correct gotcha okay let's get the molly packed we don't have the manpower see if we can get the manpower in time treaty will be a stepping stone for the future machine tools and then we're going to make we're going to go mechanical computing there's no need to go mp because we're not going to actually be holding any uh non-core territory okay we just made it just made it good job have a good night day by day yeah i'm with you pillbox oh no problem v hun you have a good night man doing pretty good prickle man yeah alarm clocks are quite annoying i if i can get away without them i do um when i had to get like so i took a genetic test this is going to sound weird i took a genetic test and basically told me that the best time for me to wake up is around 8 30. well most of my life i've been waking up at around 6 a.m and always had to use alarm clock if i did that but now i actually wake up a little later and it's worked out where i don't have to have an alarm clock but if i wake up at like 6 6 30 i need an alarm clock but it doesn't it still doesn't feel as rested if you use that if you have to use the alarm clock okay let's get those guys going watch me get shut out here guys okay then we're going to sidestep with a few of these guys i'll be fine okay okay we're going to attack fairly quickly so i'm not going to get rudolf hess we're not going to need heinrich himmler at all which kind of opens it up the other thing that doesn't work out and someone mentioned that they watch dustin never convert factories it is never mathematically a good idea to convert factories i guess unless you're in a very small nation we only had a few factories to work with i and you ran out of slots in other words you can no longer build military factories because you didn't have enough civilian factories or something some weird strange situational thing or you're role playing i would never convert the factories trade deal opinion factor i never go for that guy either um five percent political power game so if we go yokim i just learned that his son actually was a tank commander on the eastern front yokim vaughn ribbontrop i saw that the other day have a good night lewis there's a decision to convert civilian instantly okay so if you guys are still are just coming into this stream here the god emperor's challenge was one of my viewers challenged to only take core states and hold them and hold them off against the rest of the world so the allies are going to get into this against us and the soviets are going to get into it and i don't think i'm going to be able to pull off a sea lion so we're not going to go there because i'm not going to bring italy and i'm not going to form vichy france so i'm trying to not make puppets okay we're not able to get shacked yet this would if we got checked that would be nice to have so let's just go gadarian these guys can come out with full training okay got the molly packed moscow signs pact okay excellent okay i never play those countries so that's probably why i don't know about that have a good night prickle man thanks for coming dude you can do the communist u.s path without actually going communists and get free war goals on the uk and other countries that's that's funny that's interesting i think i played one u.s game off stream and wow i was like ah this is gonna be pretty easy okay so we're going to be able to build a lot of stuff here extra research slot how is that possible they went down the left side of their uh tree actually you can get a research slot pretty quickly there did you guys see that all basically all the streamers are back to twitch now i think ninja just signed and he was like streaming with 50k watching him today except for doctor disrespect of course and um i saw dr disrespect was playing madden football with uh snoop dogg that was hilarious you should check out that video navy is bond ikarik you're the amphibious assault guy dude jason good to see you man uh it is not it is going to be a fascist but it's not going to be basic we're going to hold all the cores that we possibly can so here's the other thing about this so if i'm holding france i think i'm just going to let them revolt against me and break off into their own little country again like i'm only going to hold all sons lorraine and please uh tell me if we should do something different in chat so i'm going to take out france and then not occupy them at all except for all sons lorraine and then just let them have the country back that's the way i see this uh challenge so we reassert eastern claims go danziger war but not declare war because the soviets are gonna do that for us and then we're gonna go around majino god i feel like i need to do some up here we need to get uh fernand schnorner i know nothing about this guy but he's so powerful in hearts of iron four should probably research that guy do a little video on him or something who's the ninja guy i think he's like the top streamer he does fortnite i'm pretty sure he's the number one streamer in the worlds he's from like chicago or something i know he trolled me hard dude it crick is like do all this like crazy stuff you could do anything esg oh you failed oh that was too bad occupation in wartime is okay but in peace deal you gotta puppet france and only take the land you need is it okay if i do it my way and just let them i want to see what happens with the resistance if they just take the country back um new order e-h-e-h-y what's is that a mod the other thing is there okay real quick is there any point in squee like squeezing on yugoslavia because we can take them out but we're not going to have cores right we're never going to have cores is what we decided yeah they're they're irrelevant i don't even it's a mine let's do it just just to see just to let him take it back i want to see what happens okay so these guys go over here with barely enough men that's okay so it was marshall i don't know if marshall is watching but it was marshall that was like he asked me the question he's the reason why i did that army composition video but basically um in order to grow your field marshals we're not going to go guerrilla fighter i want to see if i can get a better promotion for him but if you want to grow your generals into like skilled staffer general max army size plus six you max out the armies the divisions in the army uh but don't get too crazy with that just build out however many divisions you have for equipment that you need um and since we're rushing right now it's okay that i'm doing that you don't see any equipment in these divisions that's fine but i'm just saying if you want to go up against like the ussr like a giant like that you need to make sure that your army's more narrow than it is wide and that you have enough equipment to supply the army through a two year period say so a narrow army better army especially when you're far away from your capital and you're suffering some attrition danziger ward removes your claims and i believe your cores on of poland it removes my cores on poland well how do i have core on poland i don't have any cores i bought danziger gives me a core on dancing and then i can release poland if we'll just deal with it we'll deal with it we'll figure it out we took this path let's go with it because i can always release a puppet uh germany will have cores on poland after i do this so this research eastern claims get gives me claims on all these areas but not core huh i tested this out last night i know that it gives me course gains core on danzig right there loses claim on posnon and ca katowice loses claim but not core okay we'll deal with it we'll deal with it when it comes up making heavy investments into industry early see how this is tuning up so we're going to need some like 240 of the westby to be able to put them into our divisions wow cass and t bombers not sure what a t-bomber is but i think that you expose something about cast that works really well for miners if your miner does not have cass the thing is here's the thing to think about is how does the cast scale is it worth the extra research slot so in your bulgaria build um you only have two research slots this is in pillboxes build for his bulgaria mod uh so bulgaria does not start with cass then he goes to cass first which seemed to me like it was like is this what we should be doing not going industry or anything else but if you buff your industry what does it matter you only have a few sieves a few mils but going cass gives you a lot of offensive power for a minor but my thing is we already have cast we're building it we have full production efficiency on casts but what if i go the next level up what am i getting it's costing me an extra aluminum which is just death and then it's costing me extra production and then what's my um ground attack 15 to 10. that's actually a huge jump but i don't think we can spare the aluminum i think i'd rather just upgrade the ju-87 with our air experience and not waste the research slot t-bombers what are you talking about the t-bombers tactical bombers um tactical bombers give you a little more air superiority 1.25 wait it says 1.0 right there what the heck oh no no no sorry this gives you 1.25 so it gives you the same amount of air superiority and uh the production cost is devastating i would not go tactical bombers at all i would just go cast and then improve your casts with your air xp i don't think tactical bombers are worth it okay we gotta go panzer three and for you americans it was very surprising to me when i learned that the panzer 3 was actually the tank killer and the panzer iv was a siege weapon without this long nose without the long barrel it was a short barrel and it was a bunker buster they're using it i believe as direct fire but it was primarily used the panzer iv was a part of the artillery regiments the panzer 3 was tanked to tank but it had a smaller round but it was a ap round so i know you guys probably follow me you guys know that any if you guys are just joining we're just gonna take course and hold out and we're just gonna hold out against uh the allies and the soviets and see what we can do that's what the god emperor's challenge challenges that's right you can get the cast to with the material designer we could do that we could do that tonight the material designer you get the research speed ground attack 10 percent so that's going to give you 1.5 on the cast level 2 reliability 10 it's going to give you 1.5 yeah that scale is a lot better that 1.5 it doesn't seem like much but going from 10 to 15 to 16.5 probably makes it worth it the attacks have better range but you can also build in range with the cast and situ that's situationally um over here with the huge provinces is better heavy fighters are probably viable and then but we're not going in over here with these huge provinces over here attack bombers are good but as germany you have enough tack bombers turn one to last you for the rest of the game to use in those situations that you need them that's why i never build them i can't think of a reason to build them and it's hard to build them as japan too because you need so many so many other things and you can just if you're japan you can just put cast on carriers and then move your carriers around the pacific as you need you don't need tac bombers that's right infantry support panzer iv was the infantry support tank correct have a good night icarrick thanks for stopping by man okay so dan zigger war we're gonna blast through this one and then there are no qualifiers to go around majino are there let me just go right down here tannin bomb doesn't give us core it gives us an annex war goal against switzerland wait a second so if we annex switzerland does that give us core on switzerland can someone google that real quick so an annex wargle if we're annexing something god there's so many facets to this game you'd think i would know this by now let's give us an annex war goal it's a claim state but that's not a core state let's go rommel actually we don't even need rommel what we need is division speed let's go rommel the god emperor okay we know there's no template there there's anarchists in spain now you don't get coors on switzerland thank you veeha or credfield if the allies don't guarantee poland you might want to kill poland okay but i can't hold it why give one of the most complicated regions in the world politically to australian you think they're gonna go have you or did they already announce they're gonna go balkans next it's too expensive we're gonna need rubber though this actually is not bad oh forgot to start on my uh land doctrine take danza poznan and puppet the rest of poland if they didn't guarantee i think the only core that i get is danzig because i tried it last night it was only if i go danzig or war though it switches the core to only danzig i know i don't think that i ever get rid of the mifo because there's too many ways in the focus tree to [Music] pay for the meefo bills because like right now take this current situation i can just go down here and this will pay for the mefo bills what's our current mephobil's .35 negative so that's pretty good let's go around majino and then there's no point in doing westeroubang poland refuses to see danzig quorum dancing i thought core would come up there i guess we already have the war goal take danzig from poland okay so we do nothing with that we just sit on it but you said you talked to the devs pillbox and they're not going to do anything with bulgaria okay jason it'll be turkey italy and greece no ussr huh rd3 destroyers capitals and carriers four allies did not guarantee free real estate okay so we got panzerkampfwagen three um if we're largely going to be in a defensive battle i'd feel comfortable going with the heavies next oh yeah we're gonna go infantry equipment for sure and we're just gonna attack as soon as we can and then see what france does france should be primed to go up against us oh war support is 26 they're not going to go up against us so this is what's been happening they have not i i invited netherlands belgium luxembourg they never come in against me now so you always have to i almost get the war goal against france or with france and then they come in after you almost get it so annoying but it's okay we have plenty of time let's go up here well the thing is pillbox they don't need to touch bulgaria you already did it for them they're like pillbox nailed it we don't need to touch bulgaria it'll be interesting how your mod interacts with what changes they do make you might have to do some some more work there okay so we're in it to win it we'll go war with france and re-integrate luxembourg and also lorraine slow down the speed make sure these bad boys are up and then i don't think that they can get into the baltic okay so we should be good based on that information that i just read there and we're going to lose the mefo quicker we lose it the quicker that we can lose the debuffs from it that's how i see it oh and these guys are not aggressive we need him to be aggressive for sure kudarian i forgot to give him panzer expert you guys are real talkative tonight i love it fortress buster on van muenstein is probably gonna be helpful oh take this off organization first now v hun when you say kill like we're gonna take him we're gonna take everyone out but then what do i do with him no they never do they never do after law resistance let's turn all these guys on okay oh they actually have a division in there wow they saw me lining up so they got a division out real quick so they'll be over there uk is going to come in maybe it better simulates the phony war kind of one go to liege and one to no more so i don't here's the thing with occupied territories i don't want to spend one dime on them oh and i screwed this up hold up these guys should be changed to chanel divisions because they don't have any of the support equipment and then do we have a template we have these two templates down here are any of them a mini so chanel division should be our occupation force but i wonder if i can set that to nothing nope there's no no no null set for this can we do no garrison there is a null set okay not wasting any time with that alexa armac good to see you man seb g i think rommel would have been fine i don't think he would have been executed because there was not a lot of war crimes that i know of in north africa but i could be mistaken uh if they hadn't executed him would there have been war crimes on the western front is the question and um there was war crimes but it was in the battle of the bulge right um so you'd have to speculate whether those troops would have been under rommel or not and then go from there but by and large i don't think that he would have been executed for war crimes i think that he would have probably played an integral part in the rebuilding of germany and may have been a military head or something like that been welcomed back into the german military after a time feedback will break the country pack the first week that it is out i'm sure he will yeah rommel wasn't a war criminal but a lot of things happened i'm sure a lot of things happen in war in general for sure it's hard to it's a tricky thing to parse out okay freaking france is just sitting there we can't control b can we just take brussels is that what i'm seeing here ghent backdoor amsterdam there newer welcome rummel may have held office in west germany like hindenburg before third reich for sure oh why didn't i take the sudan land i don't know we probably should have so yeah we'll have to we'll deal with that next i guess and then the capital will go to eindhoven no it went to earth jesus okay captain netherlands let's get into the age where you go stay neutral and get coors okay but who else is guaranteeing do i have to worry about romania i don't think i have to worry about romania let's though this line a little better belgium is always a tough nut to crack there we go okay so i don't need any of that territory so i'm not i guess i should be a little concerned about it because it is in my rear so i do it is part of my supply line but we're not going to worry about it let's go crazy here where's stelios when you need him okay these guys can hold off until the next war here um actually i don't even care if they bomb them there bomb all you like does not hurt me move him over closer we're actually getting hits whoa carrier group guys if you're just coming on to the stream we're going to play as germany elite iron man mode with historical ai and we are only going to take cores and hold cores as long as we possibly can we opted for a france first build because poland will be eaten by the soviet union and because the molotov riven trough pact will be given cores at that time and then i will release poland as a puppet because and try to maintain the core because we're gonna try to not do puppets or anything else is there a button to release pi puppet i'm pretty sure there is okay so we should probably go army offense with halder doing good on manpower what are we researching infantry equipment could be really good though let's go mauser just to get ahead he will show up right as you yes dalios he will so the challenge is just about taking cores as germany and holding on because i don't think we're going to be able to do a sea lion we're not going to form the axis and we're not gonna have to worry about resistance at all and i'm actually gonna see what happens when the resistance gets too high okay we almost have the war goal against france you're not going to sit this one out france we're going to go toe to toe here it's getting closer if the soviets attack poland they will join the allies who's he okay we got war with france i guess we need this huh could i take them in 10 days probably not full control of also lorraine um we probably need to get something in the meantime these research bonuses are probably are pretty good so we could rush tanks that would be nice okay here we go all eyes on godarian beach dudeka good to see you man what are your sip factories doing nothing so i ended up building a ton of infrastructure so that we could get extra resources that in turn would be used as civilian factories and i know that i'm going free trade so in other words i'm not going to get as many resources because most of them go to market um yeah so that's what we're doing god a lot of these factories are gonna get burnt off oh i got panzer three i'm not making panzer three yet let's go something like that we're not probably not going to go lts again should have changed up my army composition too but it'll still work it'll be fine all i need is these guys to work well together this armored spearhead up here and we're fine that's fine they can come back no one will stand against germany not even the god emperor v hun so we're going to have also lorraine okay almost have our little spearhead here we go for the tactics shock come on didn't quite get the breakthrough that i was looking for but maybe on this one yeah they're coming back you want to see muenstein as the field marshal huh we could do that let me ask you this was meinstein ever a field martial okay let's get in the back of calais i don't think they will accept i think i need to uh wait for war i think that they're gonna go to war against me they need to get into dunkirk i don't know if that did anything there that's why there we go some reason he's got nine divisions over here i think kukla can handle that pocket okay so we need all of his guys to be right here let's put all these guys right there there we go on wikipedia it says that he attained the field martial rank yes alex hitler did take um that was part of the von monstein plan and actually i read a little bit about the what happened because i've done a few videos on the battle of france but basically they had spies in luxembourg at the main train station and the spies were opening up doors um killing people um and there was there was armed conflict with on basically men that were not in uniform there were reports of that and the germans just broke through and several hours later basically um i think that there was a king at that time of luxembourg the royal family gave up after something like 16 hours into the the whole affair but yes they did break through luxembourg and they skirted the majino line and if you play panzer core 2 on one of the scenarios you can basically see the axis of advance they stayed on this side of whichever river this is i'm not sure which which river this is but uh guderian was right there and they stayed on uh an axis of advance every army stayed between two different lines drawn on the map so they could all move in a singular direction without coming into uh conflict with each other and um so they all had a line of advance like a longitudinal line of advance if that makes any sense okay if we could get uh paris here let's have him go around capitals going to move from paris to calais to brest is what typically happens these guys can move around look at that beautiful tour de france let's use his ability here for two seconds come on boys it's not looking good we need an airport in this in this area over here that's what we need okay so they're spreading out see what we can grab here all we need to do is dip into france into paris hello okay let's see if that helps oh harris is open that should be it [Music] okay i was not going to establish vichy france germany will conquer all chat any objections alt f9 button i think that starts my recording alt f9 the mossa river the moss moss is the second river here and then this this is the rhine and then i'm not sure what this is but the moss is right here and that was the main river that they uh went through to get to sudan and this is all rolling hills and deep forest in here alfred do the annex option all right there we go and so now we should be able to go so i'm going to have to set up kind of a line here so they're going to start um rebelling let's just oh now we're up against all the forts over here well that's gonna suck so let's check out resistance the flight of rudolph house oh this is gonna get real nasty they're gonna definitely rebel damn i'm losing some manpower no garrison we're not going to lose one man to a garrison almost feel like going away from this the tiger cares not about the opinion of the mice uh pillbox yeah i think alt f9 actually starts my recordings you want to see lion all right vihan this is your build dude you're gonna get a sea lion let's do a hardcore sea lion let's risk everything the problem is if we're not bringing italy in there's going to be no uh divisions down here the uk doesn't pull their troops down so they're going to be looking for us in the home islands the home islands will not be undefended i've never done a sea lion like this but we should try it and the other question is who's gonna back him up let's get rommel and then let's build out that um austrian division here no that's okay okay let's just remove that okay take all these guys and turn them into the austrian division there we go and that's going to make our army function much better that made those numbers look really good okay rumble's off the line moving to ghent and then what's contested let's do battle of the english channel here so what do we do after we knock out the allies though that's the question and do we have enough to to do this over here do we have enough to take out czechoslovakia probably sneak around over there huh all right see you vihan you're telling me to go see a lion then you get a dip out take them i wonder if there's going to be a civil war i'm not doing anything with this resistance i refuse to oh that's right i need to get these guys over so you need these guys to basically get real close for whatever reason okay so we'll get those guys in there cancel non-aggression pact okay it's a weird one make a fallback line and get out of their forts gotcha and let them attack into me okay i feel you they're definitely gonna declare let's demand sedateland and let's increase army logistics and hope that that helps us out over here okay so we're in october 37 these don't look like they're going that well see the italians aren't tying up anyone in the med they've got everyone like this isn't gonna work at all i'm gonna work it at all i doubt i'll even get air superiority to do a sea lion to be honest with you we might have to back out of this okay so let's see what we can achieve so the first thing i'm going to do is navel invade here [Music] yeah we don't have the supremacy i need some oil oh wow we're way behind on tungsten we could get that from the soviets rubber we're pretty much screwed there and we should be doing refineries refineries for days yeah i don't think this is gonna work boys we have 22 percent naval supremacy but require 50. yeah i don't think this is gonna go down i'll give it another like three months and then we're gonna have to back off of this we're just not damaging them they've got carrier fleets here ooh get some of those upgrades that looks cool got 600 days is so long or else i'd go for that here doctrine that's where it's at make a fallback line and get them out of their forts do you think it'll work though do you think the ai is still that stupid they could be okay let's get the upgrade here to research yeah this isn't going to happen sea lion is not going to happen we're not getting any closer um so yeah let's go ahead delete this battle plan can we fall back line with everyone does this actually work 91 divisions i love it and then i can put a plan like that all right that's what we're doing you asked for it so that's what we're doing god i need more rubber processing i can't wait for this i need more rubber let's delete this this isn't gonna work this is interesting so they're just appearing as one battle group there on the fallback line [Applause] that's really weird see what they say here checklist slovakia seeds the sudetenland are you kidding me and that's the only core territory that i get right naval naval bomber squadrons yeah we might be able to revisit it uh that is a good point i'm gonna keep my bombers over here in the in the channel let's keep converting from stockpile here and look at the h-35 we have 156 that we can turn into the westby so the westby strategy is good for what we're doing today and if you guys are just joining us what we're doing is the god emperor's challenge so one of my viewers challenge to me was to keep only what was annexed to germany in between wars um so v han the god emperor wanted me to go across and do sea lion but since i refused to put the access since i refused to italy into the axis it's not going to happen and since i didn't make vichy france because you gotta remember when you make vichy france you have the the vichy french navy down here and so they are able to participate in the mediterranean then the other thing is italy has this uh territory right here so when they come in the allies go oh crap take everyone away from the home island and come down here to defend egypt and that's when you can go across for sea lion and for the same token uh a lot of their navy gets swallowed up here in the med because the italians have quite a a large navy as well and like we're not i think it's the carriers but we're just losing planes here i mean i haven't seen any ships are we damaging ships okay we're damaging but we're not sinking any and they have a large enough pool of a navy to just sit there and and repel us and not really care i think that they didn't refuse it because i had so many forces there so now we don't have to worry about czechoslovakia whatsoever we don't have any more cores there so we're not going to attack into them like that's not going to happen um we could set up gadarian again just in case i wonder if i went like around here i've never tried that before enemy supremacy 8 000 27 okay we could potentially go over here let's move our navy so take that off that's a shift right click to take that off don't ask me why i don't know i'm still trying to understand these mechanics myself uh let's move the subs um to wester ems [Music] let's just move everyone to westerns [Music] and then let's have godarian take off over here and that's a naval base five this would be a good target not for the panzers though not for this heavy equipment um i actually wouldn't feel comfortable guderian's gonna have to be a follow-up person a follow-up general let's tee off with rommel yeah that river is going to be an issue but whatever so we don't have to go for the rest of czechoslovakia because it's not going to be core excuse me our our goal is to take only core territories and then hold out yeah they definitely could uh czechoslovakia could definitely come in against me i mean that was the point of this though i feel like why it's so interesting because you just have to sit there and wait the way i took the challenge though was to not make puppets so if we do happen to get a puppet i'm going to try to release it as quickly as possible the question is we don't come down here demand slovenia is not going to give us anything we're done taking course right anti-soviet pact we can't do that we can go war with you ssr that's not going to help us let's head over here okay so we have two armies that are competent that should be able to if we can get him across wreak havoc on the uk problem with going over here is we're not close to london i feel like you break the back of uk after you take london so i'm not sure how this is going to work out take your general with the horse bonus instead of the other guy you mean von weish all right yep oh okay and then um someone wanted von mundstein as a field marshal we can do that oh look at this guy okay so we're gonna promote von mundstein boom did he lose his other traits looks like he's still using his other traits all stats negative one for 98 days because he's recently promoted um but he can still use these traits because he's acting as a general right now i believe if i give him like aggressive assaulter it's not going to be used as a general yeah actually he could if he had infantry expert he'd be better than boncluge most likely right what's his uh skill is for clue gaze three as a field marshal these traits trickle down i believe huh do you want the reich's commiserate so we go turkey autobahn war economy reich's commacerats if homer simpson was here he'd suggest uh paratroopers kadarian's ill you know what you're right the horses should go on the horse general so let's droop strip strip godarian make some staffing changes here let's give them van mundstein and then we could do von bach but he does have division recovery rate 10 i guess it doesn't matter we'll give him von bach for that attack and then i don't know what we're doing with everything else like we don't have to attack into poland hugo is not going to attack us spain's not going to attack us i swear to you that division speed this is the best this synergizes the best with mobile warfare 100 i feel so fast like i just do so much better when i if i get von brockowitz it's better than army offense ten percent strength game english only i don't know what that means moderators do your job is that a cuss worry in german if you play the tno never play as the orton stat goal is to hold out man take territory hold out don't get swallowed up by the allies or the soviets oh it's a meme top secret no okay so we're grinding in here i wonder if this guy could come across if rommel could cross [Music] if i put my air force in here maybe he could cross whoa we're getting chewed up that's the other thing we're getting lit up over here guys can you believe that we might be able to cross here no not even close so they just put all their naval supremacy in the north sea okay so i couldn't cross so they adapted to the changes yeah this isn't gonna happen all right let's set up some sick fallback lines then navy can just stay right there okay just making sure that the danish belts will stay closed okay our main concern is over here army group moonster right there and then we'll start making fallback lines see here this is germany is that right yeah it's tight in there i don't think sea lion's happening we're gonna cancel c-line and then oh we get core on luxembourg okay and then the question is what is okay so it's through there okay so we're not going to get the forts in the first part of all sons lorraine and then von bach can take the coast fortress germany bam von weiss will be held in reserve i think that youtube wants to be children friendly because i mean that's a large part of who watches youtube it's a large audience that uh basically they can cater to and um just like you know when you go on to like nickelodeon they're gonna get only family-friendly content same with youtube they want to to be like when you go on to youtube kids or whatever it is that you know there's not going to be this weird content shown to your child you know so it's a safe place for families to go like i get it and it's a huge okay so we're coming down to the reich's commissary no i need all sons lorraine yeah we need all sons lorraine before these guys rebel it's okay jason you can say hitler but uh one of the moderators will have to show your comment we have to understand that i'm not watching the chat at all times so it's going to hold anything that it thinks is inappropriate and there's no way i could like play this game make interesting content and in addition to that like watch every word that's coming through chat so i understand why the chat is like that go east and get strong it's not that build man so for me this is an interesting build because i never do this ever so this is like new to me at least probably to you guys too but just holding on to what we can get and then because the challenge is to only hold annex territory we're gonna let these countries rebel and see what they look like like you probably don't see that a lot either just someone allowing um no garrison in occupied territory so i'm wondering just i'm wondering when these countries flip so was it 90 percent i think someone said was it uh cradfield or pillbox it has to be 90 i i was getting that a lot earlier to be honest with you okay got dive bombing what's the strat here i kind of want tanks we could do a heavy tank designer and then go for those tigers can we make that our next research we're just going to go for it and then i'm not sure if these guys are just getting shell-locked because of the fact that they're in an airport that has a ton of resistance is that why they're getting completely murdered and then someone was telling me to merge the air wings i have no id how do you merge the air wings right there duh i think that was homer simpson that was telling me to merge the air wings like that and then that concert conserves your xp more i don't i'm not sure okay let's get the fighters god we're just getting murdered here jesus let's get some fighters up here thanks pillbox jason miller good to see you man it's 1 35 a.m holy crap hope you don't have school tomorrow bro okay let's get more concentrated industry i'm sorry dispersed industry so hard for me to say concentrated industry uh the point of this build is to take only cores and hold on as tight as we can here oh it's not an op build it's more of like an nsig build i think my last germany was playthrough was with nsig and wow that was an eye-opener yeah it's basically fortress germany that is correct okay credfield wants to form the reich's commissarat i'm pretty sure that doesn't give us core though and i'm still wondering when these guys are going to rebel does the reich's commiserate include any part of france norway netherlands belgium lostland and the ukraine no so it'd only give us belgium and netherlands we lost most of our air force it's pretty crazy like our air force is looking really bad got enough trucks got enough lts probably make a bf 109 variant engine and reliability are going to be the two main factors free france is called the netherlands is our enemy in soviet french war huh united kingdom is called belgium as our enemy in the soviet british war okay so soviets declare on poland and then are now at war with allies okay if anything else this is incredibly interesting the different things that happen because i don't think anyone would think to test this out so i hope that you guys are at least like seeing all the politics that are going on here because i'm having a lot of fun with that esg you will form a belgian minor france rk commiserate uh i don't know man i was supposed to only hold i wasn't really gonna do puppets but if if they don't uh rebel yeah we could go reich's commissariat it's not going to help us with france then okay so basically we have cora and also lorraine so let's look at this okay the resistance is going down in that area and down in luxembourg okay which makes sense because it's our core now no resistance in sudetenland and then we should get core in danzig from danziger war that'll be interesting to see what happens there as well catching up on a refinering our refining [Applause] it'd also be interesting if the soviets actually attack into me the soviets won docking rights sure so we're building refineries we can't do highmarsh act because we took sudan lind it was wasn't there someone that gives us a refinery boost okay just highmarshacked oh no okay so there's really nothing and no help over here i guess we could get refining concern well we need some help in the air i can't do all weather got plenty of those guys we're not going to do air research yet oh we could go war economy there we go okay got a new ace pilot we could actually continue building a schnarnhorst be fine with that we have plenty of iron getting way ahead on the tech which is where i want to be let's get rubber processing about machine tools [Music] big questions are when is the us going to get into this are the soviets gonna come into war against us okay so the netherlands just popped up again let's beat them down real quick make sure these guys are on aggressive munstein's looking tight here as a field marshal oh they liberated brussels good for them oh wow then the uk is coming over so when i take that back the resistance starts again from the bottom that's interesting let's take this out from them okay let's get this pocket taken care of didn't come anywhere else uh we could probably pull down von boxman i could help out down here and you just leave your fallback line in place that's why i kind of like that the fallback line let's get some cass over here wow they're just flooding that area with men ah so we only got three divisions okay armored spearheads going to help a lot now we're going to get into some schwerpunkt why is it taking the soviets so long to destroy poland oh boy let's get rommel over here okay so this pockets collapsing hmm wow so as a field marshal he can use siege artillery that's pretty cool yeah munstein as a field marshal that seems like it's really overpowered okay this pocket's dissolving finally let's go the german war economy still waiting on the soviets to take out poland oh i guess oh i guess the allies are over here why haven't they attacked into me that's interesting oh they can't because i'm not at war with poland ooh but they're still over there so i wonder after that changes hands if they're kicked out or can they attack into me i don't think they can north indian are cyclones so there's only cyclones in india that's interesting free france back in dunkirk here dude they're just demolishing my air force i don't think i've ever lost error so quickly look at this it's great we could probably attempt another sea lion soon let's go one level of excavation just because it's fairly cheap and it will give us a ton more iron the next question is when uh france is gonna actually get back into the war so we're headed down to the reich's commiserate and i guess they'll take care of belgium in the netherlands but i mean france is still going to go back and forth i'm not sure exactly when these guys turned okay france is going to turn any second here so i'll have to like reconquer it let's try kessel ring for air experience gain maybe that'll keep my pilots alive longer if they have good xp i can't retain everything pillbox let's slam more into there so do you think that going the reich's commiserator is breaking the premise of the build though that's the question and then what is that going to give us it's just going to give us more territory to have to defend so i'm not sure not sure if we should do it or not the liberation of paris it's a disaster i love it wait when they liberate they get it back oh my goodness i still want to see what happens over here okay let's fan out again boys okay so it was around 90 so whoever said 90 was right that's when if the resistance gets that high that the countries come back see what we can do here i wonder what would happen if my troops were actually still in all sons lorraine if they would have been kicked out or what would have happened let's get him moving around quicker we're really having a time trying to kick him out of brussels okay we got the german war economy aust wall atlantic wall yeah i don't think this helps us let's get the rubber what should i let the allies just line up against me get the second level even though it doesn't do anything i don't even know why i'm doing that so we're retaking paris and everything god these guys have a nifty little pocket here but they can't do anything because i probably don't have air support right yeah [Music] how does brussels get like 12 divisions how does belgium get 12 divisions from nothing they have no stockpile of equipment so if you let the resistance like go up that high they just get weapons out of nowhere it's interesting and then like what's the stability of france 40 that's not too bad w pronounce it as a v thank you let's get some more construction going swear pumped they have 11 divisions in there that's crazy crazy talk give rommel wow still have plenty of guns out of light tanks though is fatherland let's use these guys in a different area like that so we're not going to do too well in france because we don't have air superiority let's increase the industrial research speed next thing to get is more manpower wow they got a ton of division spawning from seemingly nowhere and they got tank divisions jesus yeah i think that heavies are to get like one province adjacent to wherever you're trying to go i think that that's what heavies are for to breast guderian there we go tour de france part two they knew it they knew what i was doing wow we need rubber and aluminum the most for sure okay let's move rommel off the line protect our gains what are you guys doing better like that i think france capitulates after we take breast wow they have 17 divisions in there that's crazy share berg is uh holding out there got a pocket right there okay so we have learned to never let resistance increase that much it is never a good thing let's go up to marshall law and immediately i'm gonna lose all my equipment yep oh we gotta get to par go now huh jeez i think the problem with the heavies at this point was that the mobility was limited to such a point that they weren't really weren't useful they could still be knocked out from the air or disabled from there more likely and then their transmission failure was so high it's probably not it's hard to bring that weapon to bear fedor von bach wounded i thought he had a negative 50 chance of getting wounded that sucks got some holdouts over here after we get into bordeaux though it's not going to matter you shift-click to open many tech windows what does that do okay so we should be good on rubber right now wow let's go form the reich's commercial rod as credfield had said earlier i think the problem with the like a weapon like the moss is um how do you again how do you bring it to bayer like they're not going to attack if you're on the defensive which we are you are at that point the enemy's not going to attack where you want them to attack they're going to attack wherever is not expected and if you don't have enough mouse tanks then yeah you're screwed they just move out of your way they can just move around the mouse oops let's go for that cast level two next oh wow these guys had to get out of there let's take the channel rommel okay we got bordeaux maybe great now we need to take calais some see how many light tanks okay so we're head on light tank and medium okay this doesn't really matter anymore oh we're almost out of manpower shoot well i screwed the pooch on this one guys i don't know what what was going on with this build so the soviets still haven't taken out poland we could probably retreat to our fallback lines no now they're decrypting ciphers okay france capitulates we can actually improve our tanks wow that didn't hurt production efficiency that much that was great [Applause] let's get the extra research slide let's put in the secret weapon light sp artillery what's our division with 18 fantastic you go with another one of those for the perfect 20 width they're going to smelt let's roll them up oh we ran shoot that was the wrong time to do that yep wow most of his divisions have just dissolved i just wanted to see what happened over here i ran out of manpower from stupidity i wasn't watching it i'm sorry guys fedor's line looks good let's move these boys over here most of my army is just going to dissolve here all these guys have infantry expert except for rommel wow even clue gay has an upgrade oh my god until i get manpower i'm pretty much screwed we're not protecting the coast at all okay they're still able to supply somehow the hell's going on here okay i'm almost gonna have manpower here no they just called poland in you gotta be kidding me god damn it shoot who can i throw over there as a stop gap well the wheels fell off the bus tonight guys rest in peace oh man when you don't secure more manpower this is what happens yikes now they can pretty much break back out to the coast right let's let them get to into einkoven wonder if i could cut them in half there wow hey we got the tiger i've lost all my production though oh my gosh come on soviets at least i'm not at war with the soviets [Applause] okay got the extra research slide soviet soviets honor the pact okay so they do give me most of warsaw but again this is not core yeah uh so that's what i wanted to see what happened i can't believe it took that long for the soviets to actually take out poland even if the allies were over here the other thing is yeah i should not have let belgium i had what i didn't realize was belgium netherlands and france was going to come back with like 30 divisions apiece um so there's no point in taking them in the first place if all we're going to get is tiny alsance lorraine and if you guys are just joining me right now we did the god emperor um challenge um so god emperor is one of my viewers and he said to take all of the cores that germany has available to them and hold them and this got really screwed up because i couldn't do operation c line to capitulate the allies therefore i took the cores and then allowed resistance to build because i wanted to see at what point a civil war would break out and then what i didn't realize is once the civil war breaks out they basically get the countries get like their starting amounts of divisions they get a crazy amount of divisions and then england comes over and the uk is actually looking really strong at this point because i never brought the italians into the war so they don't have to worry about down here or the rest of their holdings at all and eventually the soviets maybe in 42 would attack us i think and then the allies would bring in the united states into the war so it would be an interesting long-term thing to hold out against the you know the allies and the and the soviets and we did not take like you get core on sudetenland you get core on danzig luxembourg and also lorraine i think those were the only cores that i found so that would be interesting it would be another way to kind of play nsig but if you allow france and all the low countries to come back into the war like you're facing the allies all over again so i think it is very interesting and there would be a lot of applications for like higher levels of aircraft and heavy tanks on the defensive i just didn't do this the right way i should have just held my fallback lines let france and the the netherlands reform and say hey let's let's grind it out and then form a line over poland and then you're basically at that point world war one so i don't know how interesting that is for ahoy for stream though fourth roam stop auto attacking yeah and leave a like and subscribe pillbox you're hilarious i should have been saying that the whole time dude yes please if you're joining my stream please leave a like on the on the stream um yeah this was very interesting because i feel like no one ever plays like this so it's interesting to me to see what happened so at this point can i give back poland should be able to i'm not able to because they're in a war with i'm still at war with them pretty much because they haven't capitulated no they capitulated what where are they poland okay but i cannot release the nation because they're technically still i'm technically still at war with them so i'd have to let the resistance in poland grow until they had a civil war and then make a fallback line here huh that would be super hard to hold out against especially since the soviets will go to war with us i think no matter what thanks 4th rome well i'm going to end the stream here if you guys have ideas for further streams please leave them down in the comments below i'd really appreciate that i had a lot of fun tonight this was interesting thinking about it but i think it's basically another way to play ncig a simpler way to just like make nsig happen uh like the mod like a late insig and then it's also an interesting way of playing hearts of iron 4 but i don't know that i'd do it again only got coors on danzig and i don't even own danzig but you see here it's just uh danzig it is i just thought it would be interesting if like the enemy made a breakthrough if you couldn't immediately like um just surround them with uh reserve armies and cut them off that way because you're so mobile and then you're good at the attack so you just keep on counter attacking them but yeah it's uh we also have discord so please shoot me a message on discord if you have a good idea for sunday night stream that'll be the next time i stream uh if i don't get any good ideas i think i'm going to do ck3 and continue the build that i was already doing with uh the petty king merchad in ireland uh having a lot of fun with ck3 i just feel like it's not as historical at this point there's a lot of content that is going to drop on that game though that's going to make it more historical but it is a fun game it is entirely a fun game i just feel like it's a lot more random at this point and um yeah you can there are definitely a lot of exploits that you can use in that game uh that are a part of the game that um that you could make it really easy if if you uh exploited it but i guess that's kind of like this game as well but they've had a lot more balances to hearts of iron four so anyway we're gonna what's the discord link it's on the my youtube
