Im not even shocked in one of my game italy got into war with allies in 1938 somehow over ethiopia and ended up capping in 39. I didnt even pay attention as i was playing Germany
@@ArcanePower1 As italy even if you capitulate the country you will still be at war with them. When world tension becomes high enough and if you don’t do anything about the resistance in Ethiopia they will join the Allies and you’ll suddenly be at war with them in 1938 or early ‘39.
11:00 technically not a bug probably just unintended mechanic, it doesnt check if controlled provinces border anyone just controlled states, you control styroa which probably borders venice, or whatever the state names are
4:56 regarding radar tech, I’ve noticed that the extra coordination bonus really seems to help when playing as a country with lots of smaller units, like China. Is that a placebo or does the code actually work like that? If it does work, kind of funny that radar helps with poor industry high pop nations as well as the major powers capable of specking into air & sea techs.
smaller units - more units per tile - more chance to at least 1 division reinforcing - gaining time till the others have a chance to join the fight = So, yes coordination helps "roach" units
Recently I have been playing with my friend. I was Czechoslovakia and he was playing as Hungary. He restored Austria-Hungary, while I’ve gone to fascism. We declared war on Romania and Yugoslavia, and when we were fighting there, the Germans declared war on the USSR… we were like: “What the hell?”
Just wanna note for anybody wondering: If you play "Vanilla" HOI4, meaning not with all DLC, you can still just research doctrines, once you got to a certain DLC you have to use army exp. The game tracking a loaded save with no DLC to a game with all DLC enabled, sees "oh you didnt use any army exp for your Land doctrines, thats to bad pal, you gonna need to spent it all again" Thats why the OG Host didnt have any researched.... probably...
i dont know if you did or not but at 16:00 you got 100k man power from romania cap. you couldve drained it by training units seeing how you lost it all because germany recaptured the territory
I was going to gripe about how long it's been since the last disaster save, but the return of the Belgium country ball was nice along with all the new editing flourishes so well done sir
31:11 I understand why it's 30W, but from my experience a heavy artillery mountaineer division works best at 23W as a 7/3, because mountains and hills have 50W & 70W, allowing 2 and 3 mountaineers respectively.
Yeah I’ve tried to do similar things and it literally never works. I think when you leave the border the AI panics or something lol. The AI is so dumb.
11:00 it's based on controlling States, not tiles. And you control Northern Slovenia/ Lower Styria which borders Litorale/ Rijeka ("Northern Trieste") in Italy, giving you a neutral border.
To explain: Bohemia and Moravia are two provinces within Czechia. At the start point you still had the majority of both Bohemia and Moravia. You didn't have most of Slovakia, and you might not have had Czech Silesia either (I can't really tell, Czech Silesia is kinda small)
@crunch.dot.73 maybe, but the likelihood of everyone who is usually in charge staying in charge is so low, I don't think that could be it. Germany by itself has a huge chance of civil war.
19:22 Ahh yes "Poland has war goals against Poland" "Take from Poland" Also, somehow Germany doesn't have the Poland war goal on their nation tab anymore, just the one on Yugoslavia. Seems legit 😂😂
Force Retreating I'm assuming you're talking about, you simply select the division you want to retreat and you right click on an ADJACENT tile to force him to retreat from the battle, you can only do this if the divisions you are moving are touching the tile you are trying to retreat to. Hope this helps 👍
tried it, cant hold the north as they reinforce meme across the river with 1 soft attack tanks across the line due to cas, it seems the ai in my game is just built a lot more different, and the frontline ai... atrocious
How do I send in a disaster save so I can see if it’s still salvageable? Edit: where should my HOI4 saves be located so I can actually send in the save?
You can trade with France, because Italy is not fighting you and you control a state that borders Italy. You dont need the tiles to touch. ( 16:48 )
person who sent in disaster save: has stockpile if 900.000 artillery
bittersteel: ok so we are on a budget *removes artillery*
It was more of a manpower save.
Prob force of habit lol
And once again bitter is saving my favourite failed empire.
🇦🇹👑🇭🇺🦅
I have to say the Österreicher could have been overpowered in WW1 but they generals are… yeah..
"I am once again asking to save me"
Someone playing AH
Someone send Bittersteel back to 1918 and have him save Austria-Hungary irl
Please don't.
he wouldnt be able to. by the compromise of 1848 it was a ticking time bomb
1867, i was thinking of the wrong date
@@frantisekcenek1199 🤮🤮🤮
@@sup3rlu1giwhy do you think so?
AI Germany going to war with the Soviet Union in 1939 is the craziest shit I've ever seen, and I've certainly never seen it happen on any of my games.
Ya that confused me how it even happened. Did Germany declare it or did Romania refuse to give up Bessarabia causing the soviets to declare it?
@@Mankorra_Gomorrah Germans declared and then you can see the tooltip about Romania joining the war ( 10:00 )

@@jebbroham1776 bruh never thought about that. Ig italy ai hit a new low that time
It feels funny, Austria’s top spy chilling in Transylvania in the middle of this giant shitstorm, attempting to mess with supply.
Bittersteel’s winning strategy:
1. Take over a country that’s lost most of its land
2. Lose more land
3. ???
4. Win!
Oversimplified reference there! 😂

Oh goodness... Same problem as the last save. (The one he did on stream)
The trade thing with France is because you own bordering STATES, which is all you need, not tiles.

mistakes were made tbh
@Bitt3rSteel lol I didn't expect a response tbh, but yeah 30W are always good and are great for armor, so I understand why ya did it.
Leaving the Danubian front for the Soviets to defend is probably the worst idea you've had this entire game, Bitter 😁
Yeah I’ve tried to do similar things and it literally never works. I think when you leave the border the AI panics or something lol. The AI is so dumb.

my day has been boosted 20x with an extra history video and a bitt3rsteel vid
brother, mountaineers should ALWAYS be 25 combat width and no more, no less. because of the mountain combat width
you are right, I still dont know why I did that
Thanks, you're cool too! :D

Same!
No video on the last dev dairy?
We up n bittering our steel
Kinda waiting for the breakdown of the latest dev diary

7:40 Probably should have researched that anti-air first thing...
7:17 well I am dead it was nice knowing yall
Get well, Bittersteel!
Last og austria-hungary disaster save before götterdammerung
In Hoi4 singleplayer, there is a fact: If a competent player is able to hold, they will eventually win.
Wouldnt the war with germany be averted had the player just ceded sudentenland?
Yeah i think so
Yey, finally a big youtuber thats saying that covid aint over
When bitter goes with “trench warfare”😳
29:10 he randomly talks about geometry dash
7:01 Joever? Too soon, bitter, too soon!
yippeee he's at it once more
This looks very similiar to an older disaster save video
great job by editor
Just played Austria in kaiserredux
Why did germany randomly declare on the soviets so early?
I was wondering that too, maybe non historical was on and it just picked the focus?
@crunch.dot.73 maybe, but the likelihood of everyone who is usually in charge staying in charge is so low, I don't think that could be it. Germany by itself has a huge chance of civil war.
W day, i go to gym and then get this lets gooo
3 hours ago is lava
BICE Nepal world conquest pls
i think he was going for historical borders
Isn't recon supposed to be like really good for defense? Would be cavalry recon good change for motorized in the situation?
Maintenance companies.
Always. Have. Maintenance companies. Why struggle with your own production when you can steal from your fallen enemies?

"Poland has war goals against Poland"
"Take from Poland"

does somebody know why my focus protect czechoslovakia gets bypassed if i didnt even conquer them or anything i just took focus proclaim the empire

Yo bitter could you play TNO saving Germany?
Not saying that the new editor is doing a bad job, but I preferred the old one.
how can i load this save?
How do I send in a disaster save so I can see if it’s still salvageable?

Where is the German alt history Dev diary video
bro did red flood austria but as reversed
What if your kid watches the video and you claim such a thing.. surely he must buy the DLC
