4:55 August von Mackensen was born in 1849, he was a Prussian field marshall before Germany existed. He was a field marshall in the Franco-Prussian war. He was only 1 year older than the German confederation. He also has the same birthday as me.
Mackensen's life really connects what we think of as old history to the world wars. The man was a volunteer hussar from Saxony that rose through the ranks for achievements in battle. He died in occupied Germany after WW2. It's like he lived in two different worlds.
not gonna lie this WILL change the entire game, we got thermnonuclear icbm's now, so we will literally have situations in multiplayer where a cold war happens between players, and a arms race.
@@ooo_Kim_Chi_ooo I mean... I'd wager it's easier to aim a big nuclear bullet following an arc rather than sending a rocket into space, getting useful info, and bringing it back down intact.
i am personally a great fan of Golden larping as Mao by accidentaly having to fight the civil war, being completely surrounded in the mountains, doing the long march and then winning after fucking years of fighting.
i can tell this is gonna be so funny, but holy balls it's gonna be unbalanced if you can get nukes in 42. In general stuff like the thermonuclear missile also seem insane
Thermonuclear missiles is crazy for vanilla but this could be dope for the modders. Millennium Dawn, Cold War, and TNO gunna be able to do good work with that stuff
@thewitchking852 my iron curtain dopamine is gonna hit even harder. And world ablaze is going to have day one functionality so probably going to do 1 vanilla then try it with that mod
They were underwater. Just having a little race by Cherbourg. One of them surfaced and saw the aftermath and had to get on the underwater telephone like "uhhhh guys"
You can still delete every unit except those in the capital and then start the revolt because it can't turn against you and then just crush the unitless rebellion lmao, though unless I'm mistaken I think 1.8 is making it so even the capital isn't always safe so the trick may not work in future
I really love how Paradox honors the community by literally naming the new alt history path country name for Germany “Kaiserreich” and also making the focus that gives war goals for the entire world a reference to the one HOI4 mod where you fight against the whole world as Germany.
@@GorgoPrimus ah my bad, sorry. Goes to show that I would’ve pronounced it right and said the correct name had Germany won WW1. German would’ve replaced English as the dominant language in the world.
Theyre harder to do cuz not only theres some people like thomas who complains about most things, youll still need rules to stop some stuff thats just obnoxious (-50% on sub cost is insane and subs are already annoying as fuck to deal with)
He has said that meme games are funny from time to time, but simply are not funny to do. Very unbalanced, and from a content view impossible to make sure you have a good video.
Denmark thermo nuclear rush build day 1 research+converted scrap navy=I can see this going very well for me in MP, love my defensive late game schenanigans
I love the 50% discount on construction cost for submarines Austria has. I also like how Bo and the gang are the perfect playtesters because they'll meme the memes
On a real note, I'm genuinely so happy that nuclear bombs were given some actual weight in the game now instead of being reduced to division de-orgers in the past updates, gonna be fun to see how they'll be incorporated into MP now:)
I do kinda hope the release version will be tweaked enough that things like Land Cruisers and Therm bombs are truly late game stuff and don't arrive in 1943 with enough research
For what they added to the main countries. They focused on its not too bad. Unlike the Scandanavian and South American ones. Its just that they fucking made it ridiculously easy for the US. What they should do is force you to test and transport the nukes.
Thomas: doesn’t want Brazil map-painting Also Thomas: plays as the USA, which gets tons of decisions and focuses to intervene in the Americas Thomas wants the games to go his way, without having to actually do anything himself.
really like how the military council path is basically "reject yatzi go back to prussia". also the amerikabomber having a mission to attacj the statue of liberty is straight out of wolfenstien and i love it.

Oh my god. I never connected those two but it’s making me consider actually get the dlc. I didn’t notice. What does dammerung mean for the dlc name again?
@@SciRuler Götterdämmerung means "Twilight of the Gods" in english. It's a direct reference to the fourth and final part of Richard Wagners opera "Der Ring der Nibelungen".
i think you are the main reason i now own hoi4, vic 3, ck3, stellaris and a bunch of other paradox games and all their dlc, truly i enjoy them they are great games im glad i found them through your channel.
Im pretty sure these are just toys that they fully intend to pass on to the modders. The freaking secret tech thing is literally cold war shit waiting for modders to utilize that functionality. Otherwise, they dont really make any sense for the base game.
Without your videos I would be consuming zero Hoi4 including game play. Got burned out and been playing other games. You're videos keep me updated and keep the game in my mind to come back to from time to time
Why not? Soviet civil wars are pretty un-loseable due to the bad supply situations the AI usually finds itself in and the deserter/weapon cache events when conquering cities
7:54 Tatmadaw is literally the Burmese word for “Military”. Countries don’t tend to make up cool names for their military parties because juntas don’t have parties and the military itself isn’t a party nor does it need one It’s like if there was a “Congress” party in the U.S.
Sleeper ass guy playing America, every meme I've ever been in they've always been trying to gatekeep and stay historical when IT'S A NO RULES MEME GAME
Does that -50% apply to cruiser subs as well? Might be a new meta for them to get the design of cruiser subs off Japan, build them on bulk and lend-lease to Germany
Accident civil wars, begging for volunteers, not knowing how half of the new stuff works, this is definitely how no rules games go. These are some of the most fun you can have, and the most fun to watch.
With ICBMs added it'll be interesting to see if they make more postwar content, exploring things like Operation Unthinkable. Hopefully if they do, the tech tree will be expanded.

"China will grow larger."
Swimmy getting mined and raided into the shitter by advanced submarines, fitting end for the memelord
Now that thermonuclear missles are in the game I think gameplay in Cold War mods is gonna be way more interesting.
“Just delete his boats. What revolt?”
Same thing as deleting all the military barracks in revolting states in vic3 before paradox patched that out.

Bo you should do more meme games, not just when new DLC's release! I think most people want it! You could do a poll

I’ve been refreshing to catch the releases of DLC preview vids. So excited
11:35 That's such a classic thing, when writing effects for every_country I'm surprised the devs didn't think about that
1:40 should be a new achievement to get him as country leader AND build a certain amount of capital ship raiders…Raeder’s Raiders?
There is an achievement for getting an admiral in charge and invading the UK, not called Raeder's Raiders sadly
@ I would have changed the conditions to have him as country leader AND have 20 raiding capital ships. He was a proponent of Plan Z
cant wait for thermo bombs to become a new meta
Really excited for this DLC, been waiting for this vid!
12:17 the german unit skin actually changes, that is so cool

man i wished i had friends to play HOI4 with that game looked fun as hell even though it was chaotic
I missed Cho king and Peef in HOI4 mappies, I missed them so much
you should play meme games more, the pure chaos and randomness is so much fun
So now you can essentially delete the entire dday wall with around 3 nukes, and the eastern front with about 5
