  • Today in Poland we are going to be exploring the Nationalist paths, my opinion of this path isn't great but it's only fair to put it to the test to see if it's really that bad or if it can secretly shine in ways I wouldn't and couldn't expect.
    Along the way the Polish state will be transformed from the inside out, the Sanation government shall be replaced by one that believes in the promise of a greater stronger Poland but will these dreams survive when reality comes knocking...

    If I could describe this video's production in one word it would be. Troubled, It got to the point when I realized I was going around in circles I had to break that cycle. On the positive however I got the chance to play a path I might not've otherwise and found enjoyment with it.
    There's always a silver lining even if there's tons of hurdles to go through to find them.

      I think a funny part would be monarchist portugal, with a twist of supporting carlist spain. Unfortunately it requires a lot of good rng for Carlist to even spawn, or seckoend person to be spain itself. I'm planing to play this path with my brother and as idea it seems very fun.
      Another idea is to explor left side of Romenia focus tree "Preserv greater romania". It's honestly pretty shity, however democratic part seams a bit interesting? Also playing as comunist romania (and choosing balkan domination) brought me much joy recently, so mayby a deal with a devil could give sth interesting to?
      At the end, path I couldn't find on the internet is comunist greec and incident in a bosphur. It's just 1 focus however i really like it for It's roleplay value and I would really like to see greec win a border conflict with Turkey, as i couldn't do it myself.

      This path looks very fun, even if it is broken and does require you to spend a lot of time that you would preferably spend on industrial focuses.

      ​@@wakolis9930 if you send volunteers to Republican Spain, you can stop Nationalist Spain from ever taking the provinces in the north they need to complete one of the focusses required for Fuse the Parties so you can ensure the Carlists spawn that way - you get your Volunteers back when the Republicans split in two, so then you wait the short while for the Nationalists to also split and then you can send your volunteers to the Carlists to ensure they win

    The polish nationalist path in hoi4 is so stupid i cant even stress it enough. Paradox saw the name "Falanga" and they thought "oh its the same as the spanish falangists right!" So obviously the only way this could have gone is giving them options to support fascism in south america and the benelux for some reason?

  • @Labargoth

  • @bartomiej3389
    @bartomiej3389 10 місяців тому +2

    When it comes to Dmowski and Piasecki and the focus tree, it's historically accurate because Dmowski wanted smaller, more ethnically cohesive Poland and didn't really care about foreign affrais that much. However i do agree it's weird that you can lock yourself out of a focus tree because Dmowski's path can only lead to becoming a third reich puppet (which is not that historically accurate but that's another story).
    IIRC the focus for reuniting Commonwealth would work if you improved relations with Lithuania to +51

    • @BubblesZest

  • @Tom_K
    @Tom_K 10 місяців тому +7

    Regarding the fact that Germany declared on Lithuania for denying them Memel, from my own experience it happens quite consistently when you puppet Lithuania as Poland. For whatever reason the Lithuanian AI "thinks" to itself: "Oh I am with Poland, Poland strong. It will defend me."
    The fact that Poland does not get the decision is stupid considering that it is the overlord in this situation but I can't help but wonder if there is a way to consistently abuse it to go to war with Germany early-ish. I mean, here it worked out of you relatively fine.

    I am trying to think about how to solve the lock out at 3:45 maybe like an expensive decision that costs a lot of PP or maybe even a debuff so that you as a player can avoid the lock out at a large cost by modifying Roman? but Paradox wants it to be that way so this isn't a bug :( but if it isn't a bug then they should indicate it on the tree

    It makes sense that you can do support Silesian claims but you can't do support global falangism as Dmowski, as he isn't a falangist, but he was still anti-german. It doesn't make sense that as Dmowski you can only fully do the Beck-Ribbentrop pact. Instead Paradox should make a different path for the national democrats.

    Have you ever thought about doing a "What's the point of playing the USA" video? It's so agonizingly slow building up war support, the entire "War Plan" part of the tree is useless, you're forced to wait 270 days to take every focus that weakens the Great Depression, the Undisturbed Isolation debuff, getting Political Power is slow, and getting the support of Congress for anything takes forever.
    There are some benefits, like how your navy and oil reserves are so large that you can watch the Naval XP roll in forever, but the navy is pretty much pointless in this game.
