What I remember about the rise of Rexist Belgium was how quiet it wasn't. Fun Belgium Fact: I have used the Luxembourg-Liege mainline several times and in all but one time it has had trouble, this can range from simple repair works causing a diversion or replacement bus services, to being stopped at the border for a whole extra hour, ultimately leading to my train officially no longer existing while I was still on it. Before terminating at Rivage for seemingly no reason. Basically if something happens there, I'm either in the region or onboard lol
It really bothers me that the normal Rexist path literally uses THE CROSS OF BURGUNDY in its flag, but it's the VNV path that forms Burgundy! It doesn't make ANY sense!
Thing is VNV would have never go for Burgundy, only for Dietsland (Flanders and Netherlands united). The wish to reform Burgundy was expressed by Degrelle.
I love how they have an achievement that forces you to do the lame path where you have to manually justify most of the wargoals you'll need rather than the more fun path where it gives you the wargoals directly. The whole [Brown] path for Belgium is weird and half-baked.
It's just totally retarded, the Flemish nationalist path involves not declaring Flemish independence and conquering swathes of French speaking lands to form Burgundy, but the DeGrelle path (a man whose ideas likely inspired paradox to include the Burgundy form) doesn't get it, and plays mostly passive...
Completed this achievement by taking out the allies and then turning on the axis, annex mainland france so I had a large border with axis, it was pretty easy all things considered - DEI manpower is just too good.
How would you get free France in the peace deal? Even if Vichy exists and joins the axis Paris would still be considered free France core and thus off the negotiation table unless you also go to war with and cap the allies right?
@yunongli2872 Well, they did get some of their land. Countries start the process of uncapitulating the second they get 1 victory point. Maybe it was enough for France to return. Keep in mind the mechanics can be a bit buggy so dumb things can always happen.
If you hold territory when the peace deal happens you can take it(for example i was able to annex all of france and the benelux as the soviets because i occupied it before capitulating the axis)

Commander Rex, the time has come. Execute order 66.

It’s the Rex Popular Front logo on their paramilitary wings flag
That being said I still agree with you

@@bv2623 then it really doesn’t make any sense. I sure hope someone got fired for that blunder

"no surprise we're going to make dei do most the dirty work"
that's crazy 😆

Yeah I guess..

Wouldnt be a paradox dlc if it wasnt half baked
@@JanJansen985 Real
I did this achievement in a much more hardcore way, what I mean by that is I capitulated the allies and Germany
Schizophrenic gamer 👍
@ I do agree with you
Sadly many achievements boil down to "defeat everyone as a measly minor nation" basically
@@yoshihammerbro435 The Chile one of taking ALL Pacific border states… what a nightmare.
@@MisterTelas2304 What was your strategy?

0:41 you should have used the 50xp to take the cheap advisor spirit, get one for 25PP and you’d be cooking on xp the rest of the game
Tried it, Axis never cap France and never did Barbarossa
i wonder is this 501st and star wars 501st related
I enjoy your content. Other than that, I have nothing valuable or insightful to say.
SHoutout to paradox for designing the most boring and stupid fascist path for belgium ever, ur the real ones

You can occupy capitulated countries and get them in the peace deal. This was made to simulate what the Soviets did in Poland.
@ so why was that not the case in this video then? It didn’t look like free France got reinstated
@@yunongli2872 Probably a glitch caused by Italy capping France, instead of Germany.
