I started the war because when i was at war with yugo, yugo joined allies and italy/germany was at war with the allies so i joined axis capped the british and the americans but couldnt get the croatian coast tile ''Dalmatia'' due to italians having claim there and getting it cheaper which forbid me from clicking the decision to get cores on stuff. If you have any questions im more than welcome to answer.
That faction name is certainly… uh…. _Interesting?_ Odd? Certainly. Weird? Not a doubt. Hilarious? I think we can all agree on _that_ Edit: Five seconds after Bittersteel noticed the name, he just casually says “China and all it’s *minors* are in our faction” I’m dying LMAO
18:28... i love how most people underrate grand battle plan... with a "through planner" field marshall you can get 80% planning bonus which means insane stats... i do get why superior is better in this case, but if you are doing like a roach playthrough where you have to slowly take tiles one by one, please go grand battle plan its so much better for roaching... well done saving this one Bitter, it takes a lot of patience
if you're in a situation like this where your enemy has both superior industry and superior manpower a good strategy might be to build a defensive army - focused on infantry and artillery then declare war on the enemy and just dig in and hold ai will recognise its superiority and attack but if you can just hold them off you'll trade really favourably meaning eventually you'll just grind enemy down to your level so this player did do some things right in my opinion
18:00 I’m not sure if you know this, but you can look at the logistics tab of any puppet or nation in your faction. It’s on the bottom right of the diplomacy tab shown on screen. This way you can see exactly what they lack if you want to lend lease to them.
Comeone, a private couldnt act that incompetently. That was field marshal of Habsburg. But tell me: how could a guy with such management and without a navy (!) manage to conquer Britain and even the US?
Bittersteel: Complains about optimizing combat width. Also Bittersteel: Optimizes combat width. (this is a joke, I know you're reducing the amount of production you need for each division, so it's more of a production optimization)
Woah, you should do a challenge competition. This one seems made up, right? But it would be interesting content to me to have a competition of "challenging saves" and you point out why one or the other is more or less interesting!
I do prefer 20 [or 21 if I can afford the extra artillery] width infantry divs, but use 18 for mountaineers, and 30 for armored. Support companies, I always go with engineers for all, like-speed recon for all, arty for infantry, or all if I can afford it. I used to use signal companies for motorized and armored, but I'm not sure they make much of a difference compared to the equipment costs. Now I try to use maintenance companies for equipment losses. Somehow I always end up with -150,000+ infantry equipment during a certain german operation that youtube doesn't like me talking about, even when I had 250,000+ equipment stockpiled at the beginning. Gotta love battle-planning 😒
Going to have to disagree with the two battalion artillery being a waste for small nations. Unless you're already thighs deep into a deficit, that's a basic frontline unit. People really overestimate how many factories you need on guns. Ten factories max unless you're massive nation like the US, Soviet Union, Germany, or the Chinese. The thing is as a smaller nation you REALLY need more bang for your manpower buck. You cannot afford to take massive losses, and having mostly infantry causes you to take far more losses than you'll inflict on the enemy, even if it's technically better at holding. If you're a major nation then you're making 30 or 40 width infantry divisions anyways, because you have the manpower and industry to support the greater width. That's on top of your armored divisions. And you'll have at least double the artillery a 20 width would have. Your extra factories as a major don't go into making artillery, they go into making armored divisions. That is the thing you can't afford as smaller countries. Furthermore, a fully armed and operational Austria-Hungary isn't a small nation to begin with. If they're lacking industry, they did something wrong industrially. They should have plenty of factories to produce what they need, given that they can grab Czechoslovakia.
Did they patch the sudetenland demand between Hungary and germany? it doesn't work any more for me. When you would use a spy to see when Germany does the sudetenland focus, you would also do the Czech align focus. Germany automatically gets sudetenland now for me. bummer
2 arty is not too expensive for a frontline unit. Especially not for AUH as fuel is not a thing and considering 600k guns stockpile its a matter of bad industry micro not lack thereof
EXACTLY. Austria Hungary is an industrial powerhouse once they grab Czechoslovakia, and nothing to sniff at even beforehand. I don't know if Bittersteel realizes just how much IC he's wasting on infantry weapons when the efficiency you can get on those, especially be 1946, is absolutely ridiculous. I usually max out on 10 factories with those, maybe 15 if I'm one of the majors or am in late game.
@@exeticm4k steam is the best, since almost all of the mods are uploaded to the steam workshop, and the mods are a big piece of the game, just like all other paradox games. And overall steam is just more convenient to use.
How...How the hell this can be possible? How you reached Berlin that easily? Anytime I try to fight against Germany at late game it fulls every land it iown and you easily walked to Berlin. You were really lucky

20w are objectivly more optimal tgan 18w, and for france and the uk (which this player probably fought in) 40w are betr than 30w, other than that 30w are the best in russia and everywhere that dosnt have plains or desserts
How Austria-Hungary is highlighted in the thumbnail looks like a British Raj without the Burma coast line with some Afgani territory lol

When he said defend mountain tiles I was expecting 25 width. However I assume because of the width of the front vs manpower you went smaller?
Wanted to keep my infantry standardized for the whole game, not just the mountains.
@@Bitt3rSteel Thanks for answering. Did you stick to that 18 width without line artillery except for the mountaineers and tanks?

Question: I know you hate light tanks but with no tungsten why not switch the production run to a tank you can build?
It would be comparatively ineffective
I think the whole reason he's gone 20 and 40 width is because that was the meta on the old HOI that hes playing
