Personally I think Battle planning is fine as long as it’s not JUST battle planning. A healthy mix of micro and battle plan works well for me And of course, CAS because CAS is king
Funny how people always ignore it in these disaster saves, despite every video Alex proving that CAS is king. No wonder why Alex doesn't trust chat. It's all just Paratroopers and Attack, which obviously rarely works.
Tbh when I try to push or hold a tile I'm having trouble with, I use some divisions to attack the offensive troops, that tends to work for me, and I don't use all of the entrenched in case I get attacked, I can defend Edit: To clarify a bit more my technique, it is pretty much provoke the offensive enemy troops to lose organization faster due to multiple combats Edit 2: Due to the other replies, yes, I mean pinning, just didn't know the name of that because I only knew it as keeping troops in place.
The counteroffensives at the middle of the video is like a major WW2 version of Gallipoli. Only this time it was a major defeat for the Axis in Asia Minor
Alex "I don't care enough about the outcome of the game/dont understand the supply system" the Rambler is the same as Alex "I've got 2000 hours on this game, I consider myself pretty good" the Rambler
I just wanted to say thank you for your content alex. convinced me to buy hoi4 and then i ended up wasting 4000 hours on it. I still had stupid amounts of fun. so cheers mate.
It seems to have gone unnoticed by you so I'll post it again. Beat my record! Regular difficulty (or higher if you feel like making a Rambler fail), Ironman mode (you never know if you get an achievement), play as the Netherlands and force the Axis into a peace deal before the 11th off June 1940. In my game Italy capitulated on the 9th off June and the peace deal came on the 11th.
Alex! I’ve got an even worse one for you. Non historical, democratic turkey, at war with the allies axis and Comintern, all because Greece 2.0 (yes there are 2 Greece’s with the same leader) consisting of that one Italian island declared war on you for no reason.
U should try this game called rise of nations its on roblox its like a crappy version of HOI4 and modern day and also drew made a vid on it like few yrs ago but i found it recently
*What do you think? Can I save it?*
Maybe
no
why not
Disaster. Catastrophe. Unbelievable, utter madness to think that.
Absolute mad lad, the chad of the chads, you can.
You can do it!!!
Disaster saves are just 5 hours of holding on for dear life to build up for a glorious counter...i feel your pain
So basically WW1 in a nutshell
Personally I think Battle planning is fine as long as it’s not JUST battle planning. A healthy mix of micro and battle plan works well for me
And of course, CAS
because CAS is king
With enough CAS even battle planning can work
Funny how people always ignore it in these disaster saves, despite every video Alex proving that CAS is king. No wonder why Alex doesn't trust chat. It's all just Paratroopers and Attack, which obviously rarely works.
@@rhyscallinan7824 Im new to HoI4 what does "CAS" mean
@@Xoxoxo131 I guess it is "Close Air Support"
You know its bad when you need to rely on the Afghanistan ai divisions for fighting
The mujahadeen fighters
@Napoleon Bonaparte If I recall correctly, Napoleon was indonesian.
This video is dedicated to Afghanistans brave mujahadeen fighters.
@Napoleon Bonaparte pretty sure he's right
Bro, my uncles were mujahideen fighters in afghanistan, trust me they held the ranks in turkey imao

Do you mean pinning?
@Greyvile Got it, yes, that was it, my understanding is that pinning was only to hold divisions in place to avoid them moving into a tile
Just waiting on BitterSteel to update his guide to show how we can restore the Sultan properly!
Alex on YT: 😳😳💀💀😂😂🤣😀🤯
Alex on Twitch: 😐🤬
>”I won”
>literally had a territorial velocity of 0
Wtf is "territorial velocity"
@@joundii3100 I think he’s talking about the change in how much provinces Alex now owned compared to the start of the disaster save.
The counteroffensives at the middle of the video is like a major WW2 version of Gallipoli. Only this time it was a major defeat for the Axis in Asia Minor
The empty threat was all that kept me going, now that I know he'll just up load anyways, I’ll never like again
“Turkey calls for aid and Stalin answers” no shit!!! That’s amazing.
The Ai the UA-camrs fight against:🤡🗿😴
The Ai I fight in the game: 🤓🧐
Yeah when youtubers try an encirclement they do it without problems. When I try to take a clean tile a encircled units a division immediately appears
@@whitezombie10 I tried the great war redux and played Germany, and when the war started I saw at least 5 divisions in each tile.
@Greyvile it still doesn't explain why they fight such dumb ai and I fight such smart ai.
First video i saw live on twitch, keep up the good work Alex these videos already really fun to watch!
Alex "I don't care enough about the outcome of the game/dont understand the supply system" the Rambler is the same as Alex "I've got 2000 hours on this game, I consider myself pretty good" the Rambler
It always makes my day when Alex uploads a new video
Me: turns on historical.
The game: 4:25
Please don't stop uploading Alex I love your videos❤️
so... status quo ante save is considered saved??
I just wanted to say thank you for your content alex. convinced me to buy hoi4 and then i ended up wasting 4000 hours on it. I still had stupid amounts of fun. so cheers mate.
Alex should do a multiplayer save game
Dang alex 2 vids in like a day dang
Im kinda caught off guard when I saw that afghanistan divisions

I got very excited when I saw this because I thought it was the great war bot haven’t seen that in forever but sadly was just vanilla
I am commenting after I've liked the video and I'm already subscribed. Congratulations
I Love your disaster save Game Videos 😄
I subscribed twice so your threat doesn’t feel empty
love when a new video comes out, keep it up :D
I don’t have many hours in this game, please could you explain why you shouldn’t battle plan ? Ty :)
Alex may like the intros more than the gameplay
That intro made me feel like being on boat in storm almost seasick, always a great start to a video lol
Alex is getting better at playing hoi4!
Hi Alex will you play pax Britannia again as a different nation, maybe France
where do i send save game and is modded ok
Love your videos Alex 💜
How does he have the good legacy of Ataturk? Don’t you get the bad version if you go reform the ottoman empire route?
I have never been this early for a video
Alex! I’ve got an even worse one for you. Non historical, democratic turkey, at war with the allies axis and Comintern, all because Greece 2.0 (yes there are 2 Greece’s with the same leader) consisting of that one Italian island declared war on you for no reason.
I LOVE YOU ALEX
Alex the Rambler is oppressive
liking for the intro
You technically didn't just return to the start point because you freed mainland Turkey
real alex ramble
No Noo
U should try this game called rise of nations its on roblox its like a crappy version of HOI4 and modern day and also drew made a vid on it like few yrs ago but i found it recently
Love ya man
Otto the rambler!
Wait this isn't Victoria 2
yes
We all love you Alex, but a suggestion, BRING BACK THE GIDDY AUNT FOR A VIDEO…..
Please 😂
I live for those wonky intros
Yes disaster saves 🔥🔥

Amazing
Alex: I won
The Second front about to open in the Caucasus: Oh I don't think so
Cool

Why are you not attacking?
More like Farts of Iron, am I right guys high five
Watching an English try to reform Ottoman Empire is funny thing.
time for Ottoman pain
YES
Drake collaboration when?
I was excited because this looked exactly like one of the saves I sent you I am very disappointed
Then just dont push with all divisions. Keep some entrenched
i’m commenting so my boi can pull it through
Alex, can you disaster save the USA?
I wish I could afford hoi4
Just pirate it lol.
pirate it
sick
Is this proof that CAS isnt king?!?! 1100 CAS with air superiority and they couldnt push.... nah it was just the AI being bad
wow
How many ads are in this video?? I am 11 minutes in and got 6 ads. Wtf
I can't wait for my mp game to go so badly, that I send it to Alex to fix.
Commenting 4 algorithm
Lol
Why is the content so pixelated? The webcam as much as the game itself. It is not about UA-cam delivering shitty resolutions...
It was an issue with my recording software
