@@rewriting-history but if the tanks were in German cities already, the Germans wouldn't bomb their own cities so I reckon developing more powerful artillery would be more effective lol but still a pretty interesting story
Tanks countering tanks is not really effective. The best counter is air and anti-tank. Big tank battles are really costly for both sides, so there is usually no winner
@@rewriting-history I think the mini nukes have one issue if Germany cant get the recourses for them and say the countries like us might oppose Germany for creating nuclear weapons
If Britain really sided with Germany, the Indian army would send troops through pro-German Persia to the Caucasus to defend the oil fields from the Russian army. But the most important factor that would decide victory or defeat could be Egypt, which would either join the side of the Axis of Revenge with the aim of occupying the Suez Canal or the side of Germany and Britain with the aim of occupying Italian Libya.

Hey Rewriting History, I just played the HOI4 mod and I noticed something: If a player plays Germany, Germany is overpowered, but if a bot plays Germany, Germany is heavily underpowered. To put it into perspective, I captured Berlin in 1932 and finished my political focus tree in 1931.
@@rewriting-history I also noticed the AI tends to not man the front until it's far too late. Also, I do think the focusses which give cores, claims and Wargoals should be a bit longer.
And also german focus tree needs to be complated to be honest political focus tree of germany is very shit and france does not go to war with germans on 1932 .For some reason they declare war on moroco instead of germany
@@GamerDVE well makingmods isnt easy im gonna wait until the mod is finished to play it. the mod has potential and it would be the first big bulgarian hoi4 mod
The Ardennes part was just unrealistic. Pushing through a dense forest with light tanks and trucks is possible, but getting a bunch of Super heavy tanks through there is unlikely.
I agree with the fact that the mini nukes are unrealistic but i enjoy the fact that you added them, and are going into detail about how the Germans are countering the French super heavy tanks.
I have an idea about that. The Germans could develop powerful large-caliber guns, like artillery, but to shoot forward instead of up. In fact, it is not that difficult, because heavy artillery had existed for a long time by that time. It is just necessary to develop armor-piercing shells and guidance systems.
There is a Eastern German March song called: Unsere Panzerdivision, where in on Phrase, it sas: "Dort wo die Wälder Steh stürmen wir vor" which fits perfect for the french Invasion to Belgium.
Real cool video cant wait for the next but i cant help but notice that the french tanks would have a complete lack of fuel due to British and German naval blockades so this would render French tanks ineffective, although i do agree that the french doing well is a more interesting scenario
Yeah it feels like the odds should be way more stacked against the French than they are, so it’s kind of disappointing how making sense is ignored for the sake of the story. But on the other hand this gives more of a story.
I really don’t see the lack of German tanks as realistic. If they had thought the next war would be the same then they would develop ways to overcome this. The Germans are great at military innovation so they would’ve likely developed their own tanks, better artillery and explosives to aid them. Even if they saw the idea of a slow heavily armoured vehicle as a little silly, they had enough engineers, steel and oil to experiment.
Let not forget they win the WW easy. they are like the french in reality they don't see what change In this reality in WW1 tank dosen't play a great change like the reality In WW1 France was the one who built a lot of tank and Germany don't so is Can be the reason why they don't have many tank They was not prepare too the war like France and russia so is Can be the reason why they didin't have innovation they didin't see why and the general think they are invincible And let not forget they has been beaten quickly and lose a lot of troupe so the respond IS make time
The German in here is socialist so maybe their military budget get cut They think the French is that crazy and Russia is far away and blocked by allies (Poland, Baltic, Ukraine) At least that's how to rationalize it
OTL: France: There's no way Germany will go through the Ardennes Germany: *goes through the Ardennes* France: well we're fucked Kaisertum: Germany: There's no way France will go through the Ardennes France: *goes through the Ardennes* Germany: well we're fucked Loll this is actually hilarious
The one thing that makes no sense is that France would forgive Italy for taking so much land of theirs. Heck, the Italians would have gained more land from France than the Germans, so I don't see any way that the French would ally with the Italians.
@@rewriting-history Germany and the Soviets didn't really have an "alliance." It was more like a "Let's trade and don't bother each other treaty" Germany just waited for strike.
@@rewriting-history does that mean france launches Operation Charlegmane and invades italy once Germany is defeated? Make that a (joke) ending in the all endings video bc it would be kinda funny pls
@@biryanilover7147Well in this scenario the French just don't bother the Italian conquest in Balkan like German just don't bother the Soviet conquest of the Baltic
Just played the mod with France, gotta say that it was pretty easily to conquer whole Europe ( Mainly thanks to the AI making no divisions ), but still is somewhat cool in it's way, keep up the good job
For me it makes more sense for the victory to go to Germany because there are factors that can be taken into account. The first is the fact that Hungary is surrounded and, even if Italy helped them, Hungary would fall fast if the sphere immediately focused on it. The second is the German anti-tank technology that can easily destroy French tanks, and then it is only necessary to advance quickly in the iron mines for France to lose the tanks. The third is the entrance of the United Kingdom, which can use its navy to surround the French and Russians, in addition to being able to call the army of the colonies to help in the invasion (an alternative D-Day). For me the axis of revenge to win would be to make an alternative TNO.
@@rewriting-historylike maybe cold war between German and Britain vs Russia and Japan (decolonization of Asia by the Russian and Japan support), war between Japan and America
making a nuke to destroy 4 tank is so costly i think thats beyond unrealistic there will be anthor way to destroy super havey tank like powerful mine or somethink like Panzerfaust of super havey anti-tank cannon
@@rewriting-history unrealistic and ineffective cuz the radius of 100 metres could still kill their own civilians in urban warfare tho like how does that work if french tanks are in your city
Great video! By the way interesting fact from WW2 between Hungary and Poland. After the German occupation of Poland in WW2, Hungary accepted refugees from Poland, who were escaping from the nazi terror. Love Poland from Hungary
I think the Balkans just suck, as they were involved in so many wars while Italy wasn't. Also the Serbs would rebel in Bulgaria, aiding the Italian advances
Born too late to fight a war between Germany and France Born too early to fight a war between Germany and France Born just in time to fight a war between Germany and France
The French Superheavies are pretty much Tiger Tanks but french... Reliable and effective Anti Tank guns would probably shred those things but logistics and terrain would not be a problem for the french superheavies since its in western europe
Logistics would 100% be a problem as would terrain. Those were a problem for tigers which are not super heavies. Super heavies would have all the problems of tigers squared.
Going through the Ardennes in this timeline would be too risky. France has a limited number of heavy tanks, if any are lost in the forest, unable to move, it will be major losses for them.
Not really, super heavies are so slow and limited that 'Realistically' they would be easily defeated in wooden areas even with limited anti-tank defenses.
hey hey friendly neighbourhood South African here this was awesome!! genuinely one of the best episodes in the series! my only problem was one tiny little thing ..Natal isn't pronounced "na-taal", it's pronounced "nay-tl" but other than that this video was absolutely wonderful! the hoi4 mod is looking good too i should probably work on finishing the south african focus tree now hehe
@@elisevanbeethoven no problem, no need to apologize I believe that it is a name which people pronounce differently in different regions so the way you pronounce is also correct and may also be the more correct form of saying it.

Ardennes and the French push into belgium makes 0 sense. Historically, Germany was able to cross through the Ardennes because of the lighter german tanks, so obv a heavy tank wont be able to do so. The french had tanks irl too, and they were too heavy to cross the ardennes, and that is why they judged them uncrossable. Then there is the belgian campaign, how is a slow heavy tank gona encircle any troops, german Blitzkrieg was based in very mobile units, not slow heavy tanks. Otherwise, cool scenario :D
@@rewriting-history Yes, but even in alternate history you cannot break the rules of physics. There are smaller tactical nukes for the battle fieldds which can ben shots from artillery, but the evolution goes through the big nukes, which barely fit in a plane.
@@rewriting-history I want to make videos like yours. I am a kid so I am not that knowledgeable. But you are a great inspiration for my current mapping project.
A problem with the mod is that france has to much steel, I think it would give more of the immersion if you had to do focuses to get offmap steel from russia with next to none in the mainland
Called it with the encirclement of dunkirk. I think with the steel and coal captured quickly, Germany fighting on multiple fronts, and a large part of their army being surrounded in Belgium, that France would've swept through Germany at least for a little bit.
As an alt hist fan: this video is really interesting and well made and I enjoyed it very much As a military technology geek: I am resisting the urge to be a really annoying youtube commenter
I know that all I did defies physical laws, but I wanted to make something really interesting and not study military technologies and actual plans just for a RUclips video
I don't really think that Kerenskij would have major problems with Finland, the biggest reason why Soviets preformed that bad, is because whole general staff was literally shot, and it would only be somewhat fixed in 1941 with German invasion, and Stalin literally saying "nah I'd win", and not caring all that much about war, but in these alternative timeline I do think Russians would prefer much, much better, in literally everything. The real reason why Soviets were pushed that hard at the start of Barbarosa is because general staff was literally empty, and there was none good generals, I really do think that Russia would be much better in this timeline.
I think Germany will win liberate Occitania and expain Belgium. Spain will take profit of this to retake French Vasque Country and North Catalonia (Perpignan)
I know the scenario is not meant to be realistic, but the most plausible way to counter the heavy tanks is to quickly design and field armor piercing ammunition for field artillery and/or howitzers, and some types of artillery shells at the start of the war are likely to be already capable of immobilizing heavy tanks. After all, these things are basically bigger, heavier Matildas, right? Something like the b1 bis?
Now that we have those mininukes in 1932, all gloves are off for this Kaisertum run and I expect Indianic Johannes, the famous German explorer and treasure hunter, to try to thwart the Ultra Catholic French plans to find the Ark of the Covenant as a countermesure to atom spliting 😜
I think the germans would try and use dive bombers to more effectively counter the super heavies or try to develop larger recoilless rifles. As far as I am aware the closest uranium deposits to germany are in Ukraine, but I'd say it's possible for them to develop eventually with the sheer amount of big brain capacity within Germany!
Germany in this scenario would have the by far superior fleet and would cut of frances supplys completly. Also super heavy tanks have proven to be very uneffective. They are just a very valueable target concentrated on one spot.
France was in embargos by a lot of years so is dosen't change a lot for them And Germany dosen't focus in tank and anti tank like they do in reality so super heavy tank Can be use in early War And the terrain is still okay for super heavy tank because is majority field and not mountain or hard terrain
@@wakpuissant5780 do you mind rephrasing, i do not quite understand what you are trying to say. however, even the German super heavy tanks were really bad.

A problem with the mod is that france has to much steel, I think it would give more of the immersion if you had to do focuses to get offmap steel from russia with next to none in the mainland
Yeah I need to manually reduce their amount to make it fair and concise with the videos
Called it with the encirclement of dunkirk.
I think with the steel and coal captured quickly, Germany fighting on multiple fronts, and a large part of their army being surrounded in Belgium, that France would've swept through Germany at least for a little bit.
These videos make my day
I appreciate that!
13:02 did you just say "nuke the fridge"? xD
yes, and I did!
@@rewriting-history I respect that
As an alt hist fan: this video is really interesting and well made and I enjoyed it very much
As a military technology geek: I am resisting the urge to be a really annoying youtube commenter
I know that all I did defies physical laws, but I wanted to make something really interesting and not study military technologies and actual plans just for a RUclips video
@@rewriting-history I know, I'm not complaining, it's a very good video and I absolutely sideline things in my own alt history lol
Thanks, Sparrowhawk lol. Keeping me updated on RH videos 😂
What
@@rewriting-history Enjoying the Kaisertum series RH btw. Playing Illyria in the RP.
How did they go through the ardennes forrest with SUPER HEAVY tanks, in our WW2, they used way lighter tanks.
I think I put a warning 30 seconds later that says it's unrealistic. I only want to build a nice story
I don't really think that Kerenskij would have major problems with Finland, the biggest reason why Soviets preformed that bad, is because whole general staff was literally shot, and it would only be somewhat fixed in 1941 with German invasion, and Stalin literally saying "nah I'd win", and not caring all that much about war, but in these alternative timeline I do think Russians would prefer much, much better, in literally everything. The real reason why Soviets were pushed that hard at the start of Barbarosa is because general staff was literally empty, and there was none good generals, I really do think that Russia would be much better in this timeline.
Russia also has a large front here so it's not that easy
On the other hand they’re now on the offensive and without the Soviet industrial programs.
I think Germany will win liberate Occitania and expain Belgium.
Spain will take profit of this to retake French Vasque Country and North Catalonia (Perpignan)
I know the scenario is not meant to be realistic, but the most plausible way to counter the heavy tanks is to quickly design and field armor piercing ammunition for field artillery and/or howitzers, and some types of artillery shells at the start of the war are likely to be already capable of immobilizing heavy tanks.
After all, these things are basically bigger, heavier Matildas, right? Something like the b1 bis?
Now that we have those mininukes in 1932, all gloves are off for this Kaisertum run and I expect Indianic Johannes, the famous German explorer and treasure hunter, to try to thwart the Ultra Catholic French plans to find the Ark of the Covenant as a countermesure to atom spliting 😜
Honestly cool scenario.
MORE KAISERTUM (also could you do a TNO based on a Franco-Russian victory?)
Glad you liked this!
@@rewriting-history it is amazing keep up the great work!
I think the germans would try and use dive bombers to more effectively counter the super heavies or try to develop larger recoilless rifles. As far as I am aware the closest uranium deposits to germany are in Ukraine, but I'd say it's possible for them to develop eventually with the sheer amount of big brain capacity within Germany!
Germany in this scenario would have the by far superior fleet and would cut of frances supplys completly. Also super heavy tanks have proven to be very uneffective. They are just a very valueable target concentrated on one spot.
I know, this opinion is shared by most people, according to the poll regarding who would win
France was in embargos by a lot of years so is dosen't change a lot for them
And Germany dosen't focus in tank and anti tank like they do in reality so super heavy tank Can be use in early War
And the terrain is still okay for super heavy tank because is majority field and not mountain or hard terrain
@@wakpuissant5780 you mean like the densely forested Ardennes.
@@imperialdragoon9715 he Say Ardenne was not realistic
And if the french make super heavy tank like the tiger like the German is more easy to admit it
@@wakpuissant5780 do you mind rephrasing, i do not quite understand what you are trying to say. however, even the German super heavy tanks were really bad.
How long do you plan to update the mod after the series ends?
There is a mod dev team working on it without my inputs, so I assume they will keep it alive and update it regularly
