now im going to ask for it. please give us Italian east-africa. don't tell me that we don't want to see this man suffer. most importantly this belgium man. (greetings from a dutch)
Bittersteel, please make a black ice basic guide. These videos make me want to play it, but everytime I open the interface I immediately want to get drunk and leave my computer.
If you really hate yourself don’t do drugs, don’t start drinking. Play 1 game as the Soviets or Italians in Black Ice and suddenly you’ll see life in a better way
Despite the crazy -50% division attack and more debuffs in red flood, italy is actually VERY strong because of their ability to go to war with france early and their industry.
@@Aaron067 historical realism would be ethiopia surrendering immediately and all of the ethiopians being grateful that they're no longer under a tyrant starving them to death. historical realism would be basically removing the entire ethiopian tree, and the opportunity for the allies to host the ethiopian government in exile. Realism went out the window when the sultanate of aussa, which literally did not exist, was added to the game. "OH! BUT THE WIKPEDIA PAGE EXISTS!" roll it back in time 10 years and you will quickly find that it was literally just part of ethiopia. paraslop once again manufactering and rewriting history to serve their own pro-african narrative.
If I had a nickel for every Black Ice italy video released in the last 24h I would have two nickels, which isnt much but interesting it happened twice :P Anyway there is never enough BICE content and many people have many plays so I could watch twenty different italy bice videos backt to back and still be entertained haha
the music is so good that sometimes I have trouble focusing on what you are saying. This is not a complaint. I really like the music you chose to put in this video.
Would love to see you do a full guide of Germany again, tried it a couple of times with your guide but I notice there are some small changes. I can always make it until the war against the Russians and there I get stuck.
I still think they should add a food resource to HOI4 (imagine a Wheat icon) Soldiers need to eat and it even played into some strategies of the Second World War. France is one of the most fertile regions of Europe and Germany needed to feed its conquering army. What do people think? Absolutely love the videos. Keep them coming 😁
Hi bitter, Very enjoyable video as mostly! I think you could get more if you microd industry a bit more. At points you had 20 iron too much or imported too much coal etc. You can also stockpile resources in the top left and then switch between importing 5 too many until you are full and then import 3 less and click the red button! Cheers
I have no idea why they call it G.50 bis Multirole when the name would be G.50 bis A (stands for Assaltatore) Also, pretty weird that they added the San Marco Regiment when in the 30s I'm pretty sure it was a Marine Brigade with five battalions
why play and suffer through difficult mods like BICE? when one can simply can watch someone else suffer instead? xd. Love the videos Bitt3rSteel. I have yet to play big mods like BICE, mainly cuz i am still figuring out stuff and would rather play vanilla for the most part. I have mainly been only using Ironman compat mods. Graphical, Historical/Uncensored, etc. I ain't got the braincells for these bigger more complex mods yet lol.
Can you play Japan in the Ultra Historical mod? Its practically impossible but if someone can do it then you. I failed so many times and would be glad if you solve that.
5:04 "We're gonna drain the swamp, very political, let's not get into it" No, the focus is literally draining the swamps around the rome area, no politics involved lmao
i just yesterday bought hoi4 and i did pretty good (untill the allied landing in italy filpped the whole game) so i was just playing as hungary doing stuff like historicaly happend but italy SOME HOW got to cairo and vichy france was orange btw this all happend in historical and ironman mode and the german reich got to MOSCOW idk how and i suffered alot of casualities btw
now im going to ask for it. please give us Italian east-africa. don't tell me that we don't want to see this man suffer. most importantly this belgium man. (greetings from a dutch)
As long as he stays away from the Congo 😬
Glad to see the lowlands are brotherly nations.
might not be wise to send a belgium to rule africa
@@commandercorl1544 why wouldn't it be "handy"?
@@Darklordnl idk, just have a feeling their army wouldn't be well "armed".
Play as Italian East Africa with one objective. Survive longer than any of your allies. Have fun😊
Always a pleasure to see a player failing on Mussolini’s behalf
When did he fail?
What did Mussolini so to you to deserve this?😂
@@asdas137twiddling his thumbs throughout all of ww2
@@freedomfighter2054 I think he meant bittersteel
He's a hero, why so?
Bittersteel, will you be playing Belgium BI when the Götterdämmerung DLC comes out? Now that's a experience I would like to watch.
All Belgium all the time
Why even bother asking it's obviously going to be yes
@@Bitt3rSteel I'm new, are you Belgian? I mean as if it isn't obvious enough, but I still can't be sure.
@@winstonzhou4595 you mean he is southern Dutch😂😂😂
@@Bitt3rSteel Finally, another belgium will be added to our collection of Belgiums from hoi 4 mods, brilliant

thats the point, you either have fun or you play blackice
I read the title as "Touching myself to save Mussolini". BTW it is currently 8:30 and I'm standing here baked as hell in the shower
You okay bro? Seems like you're going through a bit of a fever dream
@@TheSacredRight Sounds like they're living their best life.
„Ladys and Gentlemen, i have solved the question of Palastine, its gonna be all Italy“ 😂
1:56 wait, hold on a sec!
24 + 21 = 25?
Damn, I should've paid more attention in school 😂
Hey I was thinking the same thing!
He probably got confused because in the base game it's 15 factories max.
First time viewing a video as a channel member. Thanks Forty for the gifted sub! ❤
Welcome to the ranks!
@@Bitt3rSteelare you proud of Belgium? What is it like to live in Belgium?
"Drain the swamp, very political"
Ah, historical jokes.
I like history.
I don't, however, like living through it.
@@BagofBeans1 You must be pretty old to remember the Pontine Marshes.
39:05 The Italians on the outskirts of London: "We have you surrounded! At least from this side"
i see you were quite bitter about Italy's steel situation in black ice...
THEY HAVE NOTHING!
@@Bitt3rSteel You could say it is a bitter steel situation
LOL after all that fighting Italy ends up ruling the Caucasus and takes all the oil. The painter would have a heart attack.
If you really hate yourself don’t do drugs, don’t start drinking. Play 1 game as the Soviets or Italians in Black Ice and suddenly you’ll see life in a better way
For really exquisite masochistic experience I strongly suggest Poland.
@@krzysztofsowinski3726And for the people that enjoy pulling out teeth with pliers. Play these nations with historically accurate division templates
@@49thNap that's another YTers schtick.
I love it how in every mod even base game Italy sucks
Despite the crazy -50% division attack and more debuffs in red flood, italy is actually VERY strong because of their ability to go to war with france early and their industry.
because it sucked irl
@@JustFloppa1410just like the kreigsmarine, Italy wasn’t ready for a war in 1940.
historical realism hours

Bitt3rSteel and Black Ice is quickly becoming my favourite way to start a Saturday.
I can assure you that “Unfortunately we will not be able to take Grimsby” is a brand new sentence that no one has ever said before
Mod does a good job at recreating the Italian experience.
Always is pleasure to see how drop by drop Bittersteel lose his sanity
When black ice combined with ragnaröck
College did a video on successful black ice italy
Would love to see some magna europa challenges or autumn begonia !
Ragnarok*
What about black ice and endzieg so you get the historical accurate campaign.
I thought the break the black ice suffering with the Japan livestream would be longer, only for Mr Shteel to be back at it 3 days later.
Mussolini came back from the 20th century to take years off peoples lives in a mod for a strategy game.
32:23 Bittersteel has finally shut up Twitter with this outcome 🎉
Syria Palestina ❌️
Judea ❌️
Italia ✅️
When I play Black Ice, always sell off equipment I do not plan on using (type of planes, tankette, light tank, etc) for some production boost.
An Ottoman Empire playthrough would be a insane. (I'm talking about the one in the Great War Redux)
The only thing that will stop Bittersteel from this torture is the new Belgian focus tree
Bittersteel about to become the Blackice youtuber
If I had a nickel for every Black Ice italy video released in the last 24h I would have two nickels, which isnt much but interesting it happened twice :P
Anyway there is never enough BICE content and many people have many plays so I could watch twenty different italy bice videos backt to back and still be entertained haha
The first was a stream, this one is an edited play through.
Loving the Bitterice content lately.
Bittersteel, will there be a BICE Nationalist China Video?
Bitt3rSteel:What do you mean South Africa has fallen?
Japan: We are the Imperial Army...
Your assessment of Italy being a Major with the eco of a minor is spot on!
the music is so good that sometimes I have trouble focusing on what you are saying. This is not a complaint. I really like the music you chose to put in this video.
I'll never get used to hearing people pronounce Aluminium as a-looo-min-um
Really enjoying the black ice mod I hope to see more!
The great suffering has followed through, onto Bice Mussolini
6:40 "great again" he says as if Italy was ever great
As Brit that has unfortunately been to Hull and Grimsby several times.. I feel sorry for those Italian troops forced to land there.
I wonder if Mussolini was playing as Italy on BICE mode
My father never said hes proud, so thank you mr. Bittersteel
Would love to see you do a full guide of Germany again, tried it a couple of times with your guide but I notice there are some small changes. I can always make it until the war against the Russians and there I get stuck.
Yay more Italy wish you luck❤
Great, now high castle the US as Italy
He is making me cry with all these italy videos (bittersteel al the next caesar)
Yo bittersteel, thank you for you hoi4 videos, I really enjoy your content!!
Glad you like them!

There is in BICE
I would love to see you play as Italian Africa
Thanks for making this video 👍awesome video
can't wait for a disaster save in this mod
World Conquest as IEA in BI when?
The main issue with Italy is that your upstairs neighbour drags you into everything
Also I guess Mussolini, but eh, not much to do about him
9 hours? hell yeah!
Who is this guys therapist?👁👄👁
oh he finally did the thing
“Plucky minor”
my cat's name is "major power" basically sums up italy
43:13 what a cut
I literally read..... "touching myself to...." lmao woops
I mean, of course I want to see an Italian East Africa vid.
hes my favorite bald person
Thank you for suffering on our behalf
As a belgium son i love these video and finaly we belgium people will rise above all
Belgium in black ice when????? Lol
Italian east Africa game would be epic
even changing sides cant save you
Lore of Torturing myself to save Mussolini in Black Ice... Momentum 100
Bittersteel how many times did you say Italy?
I’m not sure why you would want Grimsby, it would scare your troops off.
If you dont like the Nato Symbols, you Should open the Division Designer and should switch to Standard (then there Standard).

I would like Spain BICE next.
Ah yes good ol black ice!

Hey Bitt3rsteel you should play the Berlin scenario mod it looks pretty good but I think it’s early in development
