I wish people would stop promoting Established Titles. It's a scam. I know it looks real, but multiple people have looked into it. The company is based in Hong Kong. The government in Scotland does not recognize the legitimacy of these titles.
Yep it’s unfortunate. Not like I’m gonna hate content creators, gotta make money somehow.
I mean, they gurantee your money back for like 2 months, and when I reneged and asked for a refund at like, 4 months, they gave me 100% no questions asked. Pretty much confirms that they can't legally do what they promise. That being said, it's for fun anyway. You'd have to be silly to think that paying $80 (or whatever the going price) for a nobility title is anything more than a novelty. Take the cool sheet of paper and don't worry. Unless the company is a front for traffiking or something like that, I really don't care.
@@ClemDiamond an excellent point to bring up, there are many companies like this exist or have existed over the years. I haven't heard of Highland Titles but if they make it clear that you don't actually become a Lord or Laird or whatever, then I'm cool with it. It's the lieing for money that I can't stand. As for donations to nature protections, Established Titles claims to plant trees with every purchase, but it isn't true. I hope that this Highland Titles really does donate to a nature reserve like they say they do.
@@ianperry8557 wrong. Promoting a SCAM or GAMBLING is completely unacceptable. It's your responsibility to look into your own claims that you're making for monetary gain
@@ianperry8557 I get the impression that the vast majority of content creators have no idea that this is a scam, and if they found out then they simply wouldn't accept sponsorship from them anymore. So, I don't blame them either.
Established Titles is a Hong Kong based company that doesn't actually own any land in Scotland. It isn't a gag gift, it's actually a scam.
Bump, thanks for calling it out.
@@soonerboomer2947 And RUclips ate my reply it seems. Short version since I don't feel like rewriting the whole thing.
If you actually check the public record, none of the plots they claim to own are actually owned by Established Titles. One is owned by a farm, another is owned by a property management company. The building that Google says is their address in Edinburgh doesn't actually have them listed as a tenant. Best information can be found by searching google for "Established Titles vs Highland Titles Comparison". And since Established Titles is actually a Hong Kong based company....good luck suing them for anything.
@@soonerboomer2947 I'll tell you this now, you cannot get a title from buying land like this regardless in Scotland. We don't do it like that at all. They ripped off Highland Titles which makes it clear it's not an actual title then missed the whole fake title thing in their advertising. It's gross advertising misconduct straight off the bat. That and the land they claim isn't actually their's, and they copy the tactics of smugglers to have an address in Edinburgh. Aka claim it's yours but don't use that address nor own it and hope no one comes knocking there.
@@soonerboomer2947 Yes it's a scam, Buying a plot of land doesn't just give you the title of Lord or Lady in Scotland, And none of the land is actually owned by Established Titles, They also probably don't even plant trees like they say they do.
@@TotallyKoolaid they claim to plant trees in Earlston. I live close enough to it and not a single news story or person local has brought it up. The forestry commission here already has a really good system in place for reforesting and not even they get talked about now as it's just a normal thing for them.
Bitt3rSteel video be like:
Act 1: "This is gonna be really difficult / This is gonna be easy, so I'll set challenge X for myself"
Act 2: "Thank you to todays sponsor X"
Act 3: "I know, I shouldn't build these ships"
Act 4: "As for country X, take all of it"
Act 5: "OMG what happened? I messed up guys..."
Act 6: * Game does something stupid * "I'm so annoyed right now"
Act 7: "Look at these encirclements"
Act 8: "We are now strong enough to take on anyone in our path / We rule the world now"
I feel attacked
@@Bitt3rSteel I'm Sorry :( It was actually ment as a compliment with Act 7 and 8
A singular strike!
But he is right :-)
Act 9: Dispersed is better
Germany should do this, monopolize the beer market
Eyy,don't give them ideas 😂😂
That might work for a Vic 3 achievement
They already own Ireland and Czechia, and China will be vassalizing them soon so in a roundabout way they already have?
First time they did it for the Kaiser
Second time for the Fuhrer
Third time for Pilsner!
The international beer market is pretty much monopolised so are several national ones as well. Craft Beer does not count.
Cloaks meta is mostly meant for MP.
He mentions another thing though, CVs are back build them and go for the biggest deck possible.
What's a good meta for singleplayer then? I don't know how to make good planes/ships/tank division templates
Yep. The biggest deck decides who's boss.
I just bulid 60 deck size CV and they wipe the floor with everything. Managed to bulid 14 of them by early 1941 so its possible. Just please, bulid some dockyards yourself, sometimes its all about quantity, not quality
the issue with CVs in Hoi4 is they cling to that one quote saying 4 CVs are optimal. Completely ignoring that not all CVs have the same deck sizes and surely the number of planes matters more than the numbers of CVs..
it still works well for SP with a lot more freedom tho in what u wanna do
A side note:
if you start justifying on Ireland, begin the Civil War and then declare on Ireland, they will actually join the Axis, so when you win the war, you can actually annex them without bothering with an invasion in the first place.
Just a neat thing I've noticed when going for this achievement; maybe it'll help someone else out there as well.
(Oh, and the video itself is pretty fun ^^)
( ꈍᴗꈍ)
Should not work as Ireland shouldn't get war participation or you against them (though you could launch an invasion during the war).
Alternativly you can likely get Ireland in your faction if you declare against them while being Nazi Germany and start the civil war without capping them.
You only need Ireland as a staging ground so they work perfectly fine as an ally.
@@rutger5000 I've made sure to replay the same scenario just now and it's all the same.
Normal difficulty, Ironman, Historical.
First focus -- Oppose Hitler, use your first 50 pp to justify on Ireland.
Once the war starts, take your sweet time, you don't want to defeat the Reich too quickly.
The justification is ready in October.
Declare on Ireland, it will join the Axis.
Curbstomp the Reich, and in the resulting peace conference you WILL be able to annex Ireland even if they have 0 war participation (I checked that specifically).
I'm not sure why it works, but maybe it has to do with how civil wars work in game; I was able to get half of Spain as Portugal by joining their civil war -- perhaps, a similar oddity's taking place here.
Feel free to repeat the steps I've outlined to make sure you'll get the same result!
@@AccelEng Thanks I appreciate that. Also always a good idea to pauze when you finish "oppose hitler", click the event so that you switch to German Military Juncta, ally Austria and unpauze. Austria will accept, making the civil war easier, and you'll auto annex and core Austria shortly after the war cause your in a faction and at peace.
@@rutger5000 Hm, that's odd -- how do you ally Austria in this case? I switched to Junta, but I can't create a faction with Austria, since the WT is too low; am I missing something?
Bittersteel: Bulgaria... what are you doing!?
Bulgaria: Just solving the Transylvanian dispute.
This game is a perfect example of why the player led peace conference exists
This looks really nice! Btw, if in the peace deal with the Allies you can get the British or French colonies in the Caribbean, you can probably also get the "Our Other Place in the Sun" achievement
yes!
The naval meta is Carrier my friend. 71cloack made a video on the cheapest way possible to beat the UK fleet, try that.
Who cares battleship go boom
Through beer alone we will rule!
when sending lend lease, just click the little warehouse button next to number input to send all :D
Yes, but no i also want to send the stuff being produced between sending the offer and cancelling the offer
@@Bitt3rSteel oh, I never thought about that, so you can input a number bigger than current stock and wait for them to be produced and sent?
@@Bitt3rSteel That explains why youtubers always do that. Thanks!
@@vondertann8218 yes you can
Regarding the navy:
You should put your navy on high risk/always engage.
Your ships are disengaging way to early (nearly always the moment the battle begins), because you are at medium risk and the UK fleet is much larger than yours.
I love your guides, very informative. I discovered your channel a few months ago and it literally helped me learn how to play. Thanks and keep up the great work!
a) Titles in the UK are granted to the owner of the entire estate not some subset of the estate and
b) Land sales beneath a certain size aren't recognised by the planning department
Idk why but The german civilwar for me is surprisingly hard. Never managed to ever hold southern Germany (despite having same amounts of units), and I really couldn't progress much in north either. No matter I battleplanned or micro'd it just wont work for me. Had to keep all units and fight a long micro war to win
Glory to Leo
I believe i cheesed so hard this one, I puppeted ireland in 1936, rushed fate of czechoslovakia, dismantled axis and joined japan faction
So I did some research on which is more optimal: tanks early or improving the industry. Important to note that before NSB treaty with the USSR gave Germany a 2.0 year ahead of time penalty reduction on 1940 medium tanks. Now it only gives a 100% research booster. So by going the route you did and rushing tanks you can start researching the mediums and it would take about 530 days (with designer). However if you go for 4 year plan -> Autarky -> both of the civ focuses -> Army innovations -> by the time you finish treaty with the USSR it would take 469 days to research the mediums (with designer). If you spend 140 days doing the civ focuses it would only take 79 days longer to research the tanks due to the ahead of time penalty. Going for civs is at least in my books better because with the tank path you're losing 12 civs worth of industry for 140 days (army innovations + treaty with USSR) but you're not getting the tanks that much earlier.
I love how his plan involves going around and beating up all the old allies.
I think the meta for medium tanks is and improved medium cannon, which you get the from fourth at research. 3 man turrent best radio 3 light machine guns 9 speed and and the basic medium tank chassis. It costs like 11.52 ic or something like that
Don't forget the riveted armour, sounds weird but you cannot cost effectively put enough armour on medium tanks to be impenetrable to medium cannons tanks
There is actually a bug with justification now where you do not need positive pp to continue justifying. It will throw the alert to warn you that it is not progressing but when you look at the timer it is progressing.
Not gonna say it is the META but when i was trying to build ships ive always built the Super heavy battleship with best batteries and best radar i have. I manage to build just one or two until the beginning of the war as Germany but you know, quality over quantity and i put my submarines on convoy raiding in English channel with always engage as well as my ships in strike force. And when the engagement starts at the end my ships managed to sink half of the royal navy just by the super heavy battleship. You should try it.
I love how the navy being built is always a running gag. It is very fitting because I tend to forget to use my navy.
Regarding naval meta:
Just spam early cruiser hulls or '36 cruisers with armor 3, and max light attack (and AA). Make sure to put them on always engage and you are golden.
Done by EfficientStrategyGaming, and seems to work reasonably well.
Or just spam Carriers, they are OP again.
fast heavy cruisers are still the meta alongside carriers. insteas of light cruiser battery you just put secondary batteries instead
Just bought some of your country ball stickers. Love the vids. 🎉
You lost due to Carriers being verry strong, carrier bombers get a massive dmg bonus and is worth using now sinds it has been fixed after a long time of being broken and not working properly
The carrier bonus for naval bombers (only they get it) is 500% damage
Which also disproves whoever said that CAS is somehow better than naval bombers on carriers
I think the issue with your navy was just air, you need more planes up for the carriers and RAF. It worked out fine though
27:30 anybody else notice the Italian camel divisions in snowy Poland? 😂🥶🐫
Camels get great mileage!
Not going to lie this achievement was the easiest among the BBA achievements. Play Hist
attack and puppet ireland, do sudetenland and then join Japan. Wow
Or just do the empire tree and get the port through relations improvement. Not hard to cheese naval invade the UK and Ireland with sneaky Czechs in there too.
I jusr took over half of the world and unknowingly got the achievement
@@mrcleantrash2345 something similar happened to me
I was playing germany, destroyed france and the uk
At the peace conference, i only took land of France but for some reason it also changed their ideology (or someone else idk) and got the "Why die for Danzig?" achievement.
Ahh yes the Pax Germania fuelled entirely desire of Wehrmacht Officers to monopolize the Beer market
Truly a great chapter in our history books
we must seize the means of alcohol consumption!
Man this game was full of sidequests for our man to do.
I'm easily distracted
I don’t think I’ve ever seen bittersteel be so upset over a Hoi4 game as when his navy was destroyed lmao
my boats :(
Heavy Cruiser is only meta if your fleet is saturated with carriers(4 is the practical maximum) because adding more carriers does not add more naval damage potential wheras adding more of any other ship does(they are not softcapped)
If you have no carriers, it's in vain; enemy carriers can just rape your heavy cruisers anyways.
Build carriers
one thing i like to do with major powers in peace deals is to first select all and then deselect the mainland so i can get all the colonial land for myself, after that i like to rub some salt in the wound by disuniting the mainland. sadly it seems that the new patch doesn't let me divide the land between my new puppets which does make for some disgusting borders.
I like how you basically conquered the entire world in a video about an easy achievement
2:31 bitt3rsteal lol
I'd wager that your ships were primarily sunk by the enemy's aircraft. 71Cloak's guide is great but I'd always add AA and upgrade the secondaries to dual-purpose whenever you can. I'm also not convinced about the wisdom of forgoing torpedoes on your destroyers for such little cost savings.
I havent watched that far into the video, but theres an even easier way to do this. Budweis is taken by fate of czechoslovakia, guiness can be taken after the war quite easily, and by disbanding your faction and joining Japans you can get tsingtao by Japan, easy. I combined it with sealion and some other achievments in my own run
Would this strategy also work with getting the Kaiserin Victoria? Or does the timeline / timing not fit? Cheers.
Awesome video like always!
I was thinking about getting BBA but i'm not completely sure... Do you think that it's a good DLC? Thanks
It's good, just don't play Switzerland.
I have to disagree with this switzerland is very fun to play.
But to be onest it has not that much replay value.
What an amazing video, by the way, from were are you? Im from Liverpool.
4:02 “…I have a special place in my heart for these ships…” Shikikan Bittersteel when
Sounds like you needed a beer alone. Pun implied.
I know how to start every single German civil war with 36 divisions for the monarchists vs 24 divisions for the Reich. Idk if its a bug but you can place all your divisions on area defense on a single tile in the far bottom left corner where Germany, France, and Switzerland all share borders. Than, when the war starts, as usual each Germany gets 24 divisions on a front together. But with 14 extra divisions that you had on area defense still in that bottom corner.
It just splits the divisions and gives you most of them.
@@Gustav_Kuriga they have 24 on the front as do I. Plus an extra 12
@@the_average_savage_5219 You always get that split of divisions, the AI gets the rest. I get the same number without doing what you do.
Try using carriers they are kinda op
"every excuse to play Germany is an excellent excuse"
never heard anyone say something more true
I really like this guide, its very helpful, and I love this channel, but trying to replicate the run, with the new updates, change a bit the strategy, now even being a brown country, you have to be in 70 percent of global tension to send equipment to Spain, or at least, send volunteers and then send the equipment, but you still have to fight the divisions on the civil war. (sorry for my English, not my first language)
Awesome as always
Thanks again!
Oddly enough, I got this achivement doing a world conquest
Wizard. Great lessons. Maybe teach us next time how many divs you need to invade USSR for your tanks vs supporting infantry.
They changed the % needed to do the lend lease now for spain it requires 70% instead of 15% as shown in the vod. Do you have a workaround for that by chance?
The part with Bulgaria make me laugh
At the risk of being a broken record player: 71Cloak discovered that CVs are the new Meta. Even 4 little converted cruiser hulls will curb stomp any navy you fight against.
Hey Bitt3rSteel I'm just wondering. I have all the DLC's installed but for some reason my Germany doesn't have 1934 Medium tanks. Is there a mod you have downloaded or am I doing something wrong?
The last patch actually removed 1934 mediums, lol
i got this achievment unintentionally as normal germany and i didn't know how
Is that possible to release it like old duration, for example 45 mins long video? Or 1 hour long video? Thank you ~
The leader for German Ireland, William Norton, was leader of the Irish Labour Party from 1932 to 1960.
Established Titles has become the new Raid Shadow Legends, they're everywhere :D
8:05 question. Why didn't you upgrade to total mobilization? i'm not really experienced in this game so i wouldn't know
Total Mob makes you lose 3% of your manpower, unless you can also get Women in the Workforce. It's usually not worth it if you aren't going to be at war for a while
Bulgaria: *Grabs Transylvania* "This is mine now."
it feels odd to see some By Blood Alone mechanics, but not some others.
like the Tank reasearch page is completely different
Yo bitt3rsteel one thing i do with my tanks in single player instead of 2 mgs i add 1 armour skirts and stab if u got it otherwise smoke launchers
i got a beer ad before this video started
0:40 When the treaty of Versailles makes germany want vengeance without invading half of europe
Can any tell me what I’m doing wrong, whenever I set up a new air wing only 25 fighters get deployed not 100?
About the return of kaiser once the netherlands denied it and i managed to get more colonies XD
Damn you bittersteel, I lost NNN to the imperial Germany borders in this video.
Me having flashbacks to when Spiff exploited the sponsor's website.
Gosh that was fun XD
That was highland
wow i had never notice that bro
I have a question regarding tanks. How worth it is to research 40-42 mediums when it only adds reliability and i believe a little bit of armour? Is the production cost worth it? Talking from a single player perspective
Nah, you just want Breakthrough on Mediums by this point, that's how the meta is working rn, I think you go for AT guns as well for the Main Armament and just spam MGs, armor doesn't matter either, just breakthrough. Speed is up to you.
@@groadmiralinerika2540 don't need to care about AT guns in SP,
@@Daggoth65 Only for the gun you'd want, but eh, Artillery gun works as well.
19:34 forgot to give at least lvl1 armor for heavy cruisers
i’m hoping you can revive the mongolian empire in one of your future videos🥺
You should do the achievement Race for Germany
"It should be illegal to have this much fun."
I'm pretty sure it was...
Isn't keeping the subs in your fleet making the whole fleet incredibly slow? Doesn't that make you incredibly vulnerable?
I did this in combination with Around Eurasia in 80 Days good strat
I accidentally got this achievement by doing the new world order one
What is the DLC for that focus tree?
maaaan you didnt take the best focuses on the tree until so late
this is a bit late but you will have a hard time winning a naval battle when fighting against a navy with a carrier fleet without a carrier fleet of your own.
你的CA沒有裝甲跟AA，所以遇上輕型砲也會輕易的被摧毀，更不用說海軍轟炸機
DD也是完全沒有AA，所以會被飛機追好玩的
完全忘了，轟炸機對海軍有多大的威脅性
Bro got Jutlanded.
My axis allies seized china for me while I held up north
love your vids america comunnist
Danzig for guarantees only works when the guarantees are pre poli-russo war.
Bittersteel you're better than promoting a scam for money. At least I hope you really are.
"i intend to go empire germany and reform the central powers"

Can you do Chad or any Minor African nation as Africa independent or even Pakistan with the Raj Broken it would be nice to see a professional like you build Empires for minor/generic nations
Can you do a guide for australia
Hmm yes lore momentum of hoi4 Kaiserreich resurgence 100
Hi bittersteel, i have some problem with the achievement as communist ethiopia, and controling the whole red sea shoreline
I was wondering why Bittersteel sounded drunk (covid recording on the good meds?) then I saw it was on 0.75% playback speed XD
How did u do a lend lease so soon? U need 70% world tension
Um, did anyone else notice that he never reclaimed the small part of Belgium that they took after WW1?

Yay new video
Don't tread on me pfp 💀
Your Pronounciation is actually better than all these "living in Germany" influencers.
I usually wait for Japan to take the Shandong peninsula then ask them for Tsingtao. Rather not weaken Japan any way since they can draw alot of the Allies' manpower out to asia. Well if I haven't already taken care of the allies.
17:45 best part 😂😂🤣
