How to Genocide in Victoria 2: 1) recruit all non accepted culture Soliders as irregular 2) collect the irregular stack in a province with low supply 3) boost soilder with focus in provinces with non accepted cultures 4) wait for attrition to kill the irregular stack. move the sack for more attrition. declear war and fight with the stack. 5) ??? 6) profit
About administrative efficiency, I've been playing a few campaigns and it seems as though my territories get various benefits from administrative efficiency beyond just taxation. This is things such as being able to recruit more brigades, getting more brigades when mobilizing, faster job changes based on my directions, and just a general sense of greater control. I'm wondering if this is true or I'm just mixing this up with other modifiers in the game. Is anyone else noticing this?
Form Poland-Lithuania in Victoria 2. Start as Russia, release Poland (as a puppet, don't give them Independence), win Independence yourself, and form Poland Lithuania and become a great empire.
You know. I bet iSorrows thought that if he played a shitty country, we would stop begging for Banat. You’d think he’d learn after artillery only, that we will never stop. But I’ve got a novel idea. Forget Banat, he should play Tartarstan
Now I finally understand why the British invented Pakistan to keep Afghans away from the ocean: unleashing the savagery of Afghanistan upon the open seas would cause the world to turn upside down! The sun never sets on the Durrani Empire! I need an Alt History fan fic about this right now cuz that would be awesome lmfao
12:39 I once killed so many Americans that after 7 years of war there population was 5 million lower than at the start, new York had a babyboom at the start of the war.
Can I pay you to teach me Victoria 2? I'd pay in hair but that's not really an option

If ISP controlled Afghanistan in 2021, the Taliban would have lost
Either that, or he would have somehow made them become a Liberal Communist Monarchy

'Defunding' the army to make some money gives me some deja vu... I wonder where...
Banat! Banat! we have to make ISP suffer lmao
@ ISP will suffer for not enjoying playing as banat before isorrowproductions
Banat is a world power and ISP will play it... change my mind
Pretty sure the only true way to play it is as Banat
Do da hashtag
The Legend has returned
true way to play it is as Banat,
Atterley only
Aged like fine wine
More like milk
I love youtube humor sending me a video about you playing Afghanistan NOW of all times, beautiful
This playthrough has been genuinely interesting af to watch. Wtf I'm even more hype for Banat now
What the hell man apparently I’ve been living life wrong now I’m having a midlife crisis
Next we want you to play Banat in hoi4!
Here is a mod with an OP focus tree: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1810481468
Maybe the former Afghan government could take some lessons.
this aged well.
This video aged like fine wine.
How topical for me to get this now
I like the part when Isorrow just suddenly talks about Mussolini's March on Rome.
God why is this getting recommended right now
Man the autochapters on this video are something.
Convert this game to HOI IV and continue the bring the glory of Afghanistan to all people of the world.
and nuke new york cuz u kno why not knock all the buildings instead of only 2
Hottzy hey man that was those dang Arabs who did that. They just ran to hide in Afghanistan afterwards.
How to Genocide in Victoria 2:
1) recruit all non accepted culture Soliders as irregular
2) collect the irregular stack in a province with low supply

4) wait for attrition to kill the irregular stack. move the sack for more attrition. declear war and fight with the stack.
5) ???
6) profit
I think out of all the games ISP plays Vicky 2is the one I enjoyed the most. Hell he made me get the game myself
OMG it’s George Kush 🥦🥦🥦
What if... Banat... from Victoria II all the way to HoI4
Jokes on you mate, I haven't been playing Victoria 2 at all.
Why film with Afghanistan have to appear now
Lol
When Afghanistan does a better "Japan" than the Japanese empire ever could.
I'm beginning to suspect this may not be an entirely serious guide to Vic 2
Thanks!
Funny this is getting recommended to me now...
