One note about nukes. You can use them quite effectively for taking out the enemy airforce by nuking airfields with a lot of planes in them. This will make your enemy lose air superiority quickly, meaning your ground forces won't have to push through red air, and is probably a lot more efficient than nuking stacks of enemy troops, at least until the enemy airforce is more or less dead.
This is exactly why I think that it was the weakest HOI 4 DLC by a long shot. My friend disagrees and says that "it is still fun", but by that logic even Cyberpunk 2077 was fun on launch, because of how utterly broken it was
Love it when your Turkish puppet takes a focus to create its own faction and start multiple wars while somehow remaining your puppet. Truly awe inspiring thank you paradox
@@monkeydetonation I mean, when I killed Greece as Turkey my focus on war with them did not bypass. They literally did not exist and I had all of their territory, yet I was still forced to sit through 70 days, doing nothing
I personally would love to see some Old World Blues, whatever you find interesting, any nation in that mod is awesome and fun to play as, unless you get attacked early by one of the big guys
I actually encountered the exact same bug with infantry equipment. It happens when you get over 2 million of anything in your stockpile - the sheer amount of equipment (and I meant that as in "anything listed in logistics tab" sense) causes integer overflow, and the game thinks that you are in negatives, despite still somewhat acknowledging the fact that you have more than enough guns. The only solution I have found to that is to just bite the bullet and delete excessive equipment, and everything should go back to normal. Or create a billion new divisions to siphon portion of that stockpile, however it is unreliable and doesn't actually fix the issue, just delays it for a couple of weeks. To be fair, the last time I witnessed that bug was over a three years ago, and I had heard that it was fixed, so it may or may not be unrelated to what happened in your game
theres not much you can do about it, since it has to be a signed integer. they can double the space but it would cause the memory footprint to explode...
@@lemeow8102 Yup. Besides, in a normal game which ends around 44-46 it is unlikely that you will get over a two million of something. In my case it was a console command (yes, I was a filthy cheater, don't judge me) and in Taureor's it was a literal world conquest, which led to him amassing almost a billion of factories. It is a pretty rare occasion, so if such a change would make already pretty slow game run even slower, it just ain't worth it
Nice! That's awesome. Putting in a vote for another Equestria at War. Don't mind which nation you play as - I'm not super familiar with the "best" ones, I just enjoy the mod casually and really enjoyed your first run in it. So I guess you can count this as a vote for whichever actual nation in EaW gets the biggest number of votes!
Play a game as any puppet or dominion. Your goal is to expand your master's borders as much as possible. For example, you can go Obedience as Manchukuo and expand the Greater East Asian Co-Prosperity sphere for Japan. Or set the UK to go fascist while you play Canada (you'd actually be independent since you break free) and help the British Empire rule the waves!
33:30 You didn't have to delete the naval invasion orders for Italy. If you had use the 'edit line' tool you would've kept your preparation while at the same time changed where you launch from and target. Admittingly, I abuse the hell out of it.
To have a less “polluted screen” you should just divide some armys in theaters. Like, the african theater, european theater. That stuff, it would be less annoying to look at the screen, or something like that. Anyway I always enjoy or videos. 💖
The naval invasion that didn't work: in naval map mode you can see that there is a straight there. It's like a canal icon. If an enemy controls one side of it you have more limited access (hover over to see what) it's the same as the Turkish straight in the black see or the danish belts, or the crossing to Sicily
I recently played as Bulgaria and found their focus tree / location quite fun and interesting! Would love to see how much better someone that has a clue what they're doing would do
@@czech_ring I was playing EU4 on my other monitor whilst watching the video so yes I think that's how I got confused 😬 haha thank you I have edited my comment
Hey Taureor! Great video! If it's a fun Idea, maybe form a BRICS faction without actually engaging in armed conflict (you may declare war, just not make your troops fight)
Tauroer, just an FYI, when you reach 2-2.1m in anything it just causes an overflow error in the code and you have to delete equipment to remove this error, very annoying as it is kind of a low number all things considered
Suggestion - David vs Golitah series As Scotland, defeat the evil english oppressors and defeat the empire As Kurds, free your country from the turkish oppressors and become the master of the middle east or similar
If it helps, quick info: from what I've read the "broken promise of peace" event is a bug with a USSR focus. the event is meant to happen to them, not you
if you have more than 2mil equipment the code checking it overflows, that's why you could not do the anarchist uprising. deleting all the equipment types you're not producing would solve the issue
You don't need to annex the puppet for the manpower either, bizarrely enough, changing them back to your template will add the manpower back into your pool, if they have land access to you.
My god this doesn't look fun (to play) at all. They need to buff Anarchist Spain somehow, but I guess it is a fine line because they could easily be made OP.
Italy can core all of Europe for the same price it costs anarchist spain to core like 5 states. I definitely think they need a buff to stay competitive with new focus trees, especially considering the permanent 0% stability means they have abysmal PP gain on top of the massive costs. To be honest, the spanish civil war is so miserable that I feel like spain as a whole needs MASSIVE buffs to ever be a fun nation to play.
They really just need to either reduce the PP cost for anarchist coring or give them an increase to their PP production, since permanent 0% stability means they only make ~0.9 per day. The 150 PP states require about half a year of PP to core and the 50 PP states are still about 2 full months worth, so it takes a ridiculous amount of time to core even a single neighboring country.
@@Will-fl3hj also remember that each state gives a -1PP/day penalty for the duration of the coring process, so they cost quite a bit more than they claim (which is already too much).
What I don't get is no collaboration governments? Historically doesn't make much sense if you will allow it for communist (Marx and Bakunin both being part of the First International), just disallow the actual puppet mechanism and retain the compliance factor so you could prioritize the states you want to core. Even with that the PP is still an issue, but that change would definitely not be OP.
Any chance that you may try to form democratic Arab Republic in Millenium Dawn?(form it, then switch?) Or, you know, any "no appeasement, no neutrality, no tyrants" playthrough would be appreciated, be it Free Fighters in OWB, opposition USSR(since they're the only ones, who can send meaningful help to Ethiopia in time) in base game or some other mod😅
Unite Africa as Sultanate of Aussa, it'll be "fun"

They made the Strait of Hormuz impassable to enemies like Gibraltar in one of the latest patches, so you can't naval invade Iran that way anymore.
Thanks, that explains it, though I'm not sure I can agree with this decision
@@Taureor Yeah, making Hormuz & Otranto blocked-off straits but not Dover, Singapore, Bab-el Mandeb is a baffling decision
@@Taureor By the way, theres a little arrow next to the Field Marshal, which when pressed collapses the Army overview for a Field Marshal.

I would love to see an Equestria at war video where you play as Supremacist Yale Rectorate, taking one of the forbidden paths.

Apparently nuking airfields wipes out all planes present at that site. Don't know if it's true, just a video I saw scrolling somewhere.
I tried that a while ago. I think that actually works
actually it doesn't remove the planes, it only deletes the airfield so the planes get the maluses that come from being in a much smaller airfield
