I highly recommend the kasierredux mod. In my opinion it works out some things some people thought were dumb. One thing I noticed the most was that they divided the us states more like Indiana and Illinois. And as I already recommended I want you to try the USA civil war but play as McArthur American Caesars or democracy triumphs
This gave me an odd realization, because I am Portuguese and just recently I found a comic strip based on my country's wars to keep the African colonies. And isn't that in the darn comic book you see a bunch of soldiers belonging to a special operations squad literally called "Vampiros", the Portuguese spelling of Vampires. And not only that but the Spec Ops squad is on mission to locate a target that, unbeknownst to them is a got damn vampire, and in the end of the book the last surviving member of the squad, has himself turned into a vampire. So yhea, this quite the amusing coincidence.
@@darthrevan4933 The book is called "Os Vampiros" by Filipe Melo e Juan Cavia, though unfortunatly I have only found the book in Portuguese, though maybe in the future a translation may be made.
So as you might already get from this nation, the nation of Chiropterra is all about returning a show-canon character called Nightmare Moon, who is the dark alter ego that corrupted Princess Luna due to her jealousy over 1000 years ago. As she always said, while ponies basked in Celestia's sunlight, they often slept through Luna's moonlight. Nightmare Moon is a disease that has no business returning and overwhelming Luna again, yet Nightmare Moon's most zealous followers, aka Chiropterra, continue to work towards that very return, and I think its one of the coolest antagonistic nations in the entire mod as a result. The funny thing is that Equestria CAN enter a civil war, which opens up an entirely new path for Chiropterra as a whole, and even has tons of breakaway states you can play as if you so choose (although some are more developed than others, and all of them are relatively outdated by now), and really sees them (chiropterra) at their overall best. You should check that out at some point, though you should probably set Equestria to having that in the options, just so you arent constantly resetting until it happens.
Operation Moonshine's result depends on what Equestria does. And if you were playing on Historical it'll always fail. Nothing much else you can do from Chiropterra to change the result apart from setting which path Equestria will from the Custom Options at the start. Chiropterra gets different focus tree depending on what Equestria does.
On top of this, if it loses the North Zebrican War, it gets a new focus tree depending on the ideology of whoever clapped it. If Hippogriffia was communist and clapped it, you get a communist tree. If someone was neutrality or supremacist or harmonist, you get focus trees for those too. All of them are relatively short by comparison and are effectively just failstate trees to detail the new humble beginnings of the failed nation (and Hippogriffia has them too), but its a nice bit of post-war-defeat focus content to do regardless.
EaW dev and writer for a fair amount of this nation, the starting screen, other bits - yeah, so there was an event which pointed out about the resistance screen. As to the 'failure' of project moonshine (the initial tree) - this happens if equestria does NOT break into civil war, which is the default route if historical focuses are left on. Otherwise, you move to support the Lunar Empire (which is what a lot of those juicy buffs were for) in reclaiming Equestria from where you are. Now that you've seen this route, don't worry - there's only about another 380 focuses across a bunch of routes to do :) By the way, for info - if you see a book icon on a state, click it. There's lore written there, and sometimes useful info about the background of the region, hinting at conflicts which might arise.
@@frankglynn8209 Around 4 years of development so far, but not every day is hard-crunch? We all do our own little bits and chip in when we want to, so it's a testament to how much people can come together to make it all work.
Puns are a sign of intelligence. Knowing when to use them is a sign of wisdom. Throwing wisdom out the window and using them ALL THE TIME is the sign of being a Dad. This mod went past Dad and went straight to the entire Dad council. On beer night. It's glorious.
Admiral Perfect Shot also has a custom trait called "Submarine Fanatic" that gives him huge buffs to subs and equally huge penalties to non-submarine ships.
It's also fully canon lore from the show. Nightmare Moon is the first antagonist of the MLP series, being the sister god of Celestia who got so jealous that everyone slept through the night she reigned over, while praising the day her sister ruled, that she snapped and declared that she would usurp her sister and give rise to eternal night, that all must worship. Celestia then had to banisher her to the literal moon for 1000 years as punishment. The end of that 1000year imprisonment is when the MLP show begins, as she breaks out of the moon and returns. There's a ridiculous amount of very not for children legit lore to MLP. It's nuts.
As much as I don’t want Stakuyi to go fully insane from Ponies… I feel that no one else on RUclips can make content on this massive mod in a fun to watch and understandable manner. I legit feel that they’ll do every single faction. I have been informed that there is one other legendary fellow that also is really in depth when it comes to these mods: dshakey. He’s great, watch his stuff
@@hashakyvonromanov5742 Dshakey is honestly "chosen one" content creator for EAW since he actually reads the whole stories and goes much more in depth than most yt, or at least the homo streamerus
Pravus Gaming also has a few series on his channel. Off the top of my head, I know he's done the Changelings, Yale Rectorate, and Bakaran Republic. I think he might have done a couple others, but I can't remember for sure.
We gotta get it up to 10k guys. As much as I hate seeing someone put themselves in pain like this, this is the best HOI4 or MLP content I’ve ever seen.
I actually played this as Changelings after seeing your videos on it, and essentially took too long to conquer Equestria. Bonus ran out, stalemate began, Stalliongrad had attacked Equestria and lost BADLY, got flanked from the north, lost the war. Also I forgot to put up my manpower and industry, so I ran out at the worst possible time; when Stalliongrad itself had capitulated and that front took far less resources from Equestria and Crystal.
2:40 - Actually, no. You were right about the Nightmare being like a night terror. The fact that the word nightmare has the word 'mare' in it really is just a linguistic benefit to the pony puns. The full name is Nightmare Moon. Formerly Princess Luna, her responsibility was to travel through and protect her subjects' dreams from actual sentient night terrors that CAN enter the real world if they blow pony's fears out of proportion in their sleep or something. However, she got corrupted by one of the monsters due to it playing off of her own insecurities due to some stupid crap going on in her waking life and thus became a tyrannical monster that had to be banished to the moon. The bat ponies followed Princess Luna, and stayed loyal to her even after turning into Nightmare Moon.
The event was on equestrias side that blocked you. As an equestiran early event chain is destroying the racism against bat ponies or ignoring it for bonuses.
The North Zebrica War is very interesting if you play as the United Kingdom of Aris/Hippogriffia. Since it's essentially a war where Aris gets ganged up on by 3 powers all at once. Chiropterra and Colthage combined is a powerful force to fight against on land. But on sea you're typically secured because of your large navy. Until Beakolini joins in and all of a sudden the sea is threatened and if you don't pay attention there'll be a hundred Wingbardian naval invasions.
Equestria has a lot of different trees that are hidden like Carthage for example if a faction coups you you get and entire new tree I did a run of them and when through like 3 factions trees
I love the militarist coup tree for Colthage personally, it was honestly really fun, and ironically more democratic by the end than Zalathel, though granted its still a military dictatorship so, that part should be taken with salt and gunpowder lol.
@@ramenbomberdeluxe4958 in my run I got couped by the scientists by reducing Thier loyalty by giving them more things then as then the military couped me again lol
Everytime I play Chiropterra I always fear going to war with the hippogriffs because they almost always curb stomp me. But stakuyi just be like "haha stinky hippogriffs :)" On that note I highly recommend playing the hippogriffs. They have multiple different paths you can go down, my favorite being the one that follows having sea pony dominance then searching the deep sea trench
A tip to help with manpower going to garrisons. A problem you seem to face all the time. Create a division with one infantry brigade and a mp support company to efficiently garrison territories. If you can afford to replace the infantry with armored cars do it for the suppression bonus. In base game it would be cavalry then armored cars. Hope this helps and I'm not sure if anyone said this before. Keep up the great content
15:15 perfect shot's portrait seems to be a reference to ace combat 7's captain Matias Torres of the "Alicorn" which is a gigantic submarine that can launch planes, according to ace combat's lore he once sunk an enemy ship by using only two shells and firing them in the middle of a storm. Also, one of your advisors that you can have as chiropterra is called Velvet Remedy, she is a character from the fanfic fallout Equestria, she's such a pacifist that she once joined slavers as a medic instead of fighting and killing them, and according to fallout Equestria's lore she won't be born until 200 ish years after the megaspells drop (megaspells are basically a computer made out of gemstones magic and technology that enhances spells, like a healing spell, for example to make it affect a larger area and be powerful enough to revive an entire army, or create a black hole, or make a simple ignition spell that lights up candles burn entire cities)
It's nice to see that you had so much fun with this, though I agree that maybe a break now would be nice. I still recommend checking out Hippogriffia if you decide to return.
My recommendations for future nations? Hippogriffia, they're a nation with very interesting branching paths, but a lot of it is determined by how well you did in the North Zebrican War. Barrad, they're a very interesting nation by EaW standards, and a lot of where you end up is determined by special events and decisions. So pay attention or you'll get lost, but while that happens enjoy the madness. And lastly Colthage, just like the previous two Colthage can change drastically from one path to another almost on a whim given how politically unstable it is at any time. And if you get too many civil wars, a certain prophet might appear with very interesting aspirations.
There should be a coconut crab nation that supports agricultural uprisings, and liberates crab ranches across the map. Kinda like Polish Peasant Republic, but with a more international impact similar to support anarchist uprisings for the Global Defense Council in Spain. They would get insane consumer population buffs and high manpower (like crabs irl), but a super weak starting industry like the Great Depression debuffs since they are mainly agricultural. For an occupation law, they should get “Liberated Crabs” that is similar to liberated workers, except it gives a minor industrial buff but gives a ton of manpower from occupied states. Some great focuses could be: Crab Rave: +4% recruitable pop in core states Coconut Liberation Army: +20% attack against nations that use coconut crab farms Crustacean Conquest: +10% attack on coastal and marsh tiles The claws do!: add Global Liberation Effort decisions to start crab uprisings in neighboring nations. Sacrifice 200 infantry equipment on a 30 day cooldown to make uprising units stronger / better templates in neighboring nations. Spend 50 Political power in occupied or puppet nations to “Elevate Crab Status” that gains more compliance, and weakens resistance in occupied territory, and adds more pawn points (or whatever it’s called) toward annexation for puppets. This would simulate crabs taking over society in areas the Crab Liberation Army has taken. Really hope to see a crab nation added. For crustacea!
I've never played HOI, or any other other paradox game apart from Stellaris. I've never been interested in MLP. I love your content. It's fun to watch, even when I have exactly zero idea what's going on

Two of the biggest fan projects ever made by the MLP fandom are this mod, and Fallout: Equestria, a book-sized fanfiction of MLP with a nuclear apocalypse. Which, got 2 official sequels and hundreds of un-official ones. Now I'm not complaining cuz it's based as fuck, but why are so many things in the MLP fandom about political intrigue and extreme violence?
Just book sized? It's longer than the Lord of the Rings trilogy (635000 words). It also doesn't have official sequels, only some canon-respecting sidefics.
There was also the music. The endless Collab albums. The amount of art we produced was really a golden age of its own. We shaped the internet for years.
2:18 Is there a Daymare? Daymare (ah-ah-ah) Fighter of the Nightmare (ah-ah-ah) Champion of the Sun (ah-ah-ah) You're a Master of Karate And friendship For Everyone
I have not played them before but I think to avoid that failure thing equestria has to go down the civil war path which usually happens when you select random for them if you select what path each nation goes down.
Well, that was a fun run, next thing that Stakuyi could do is to maybe play as longsword, I think gameplay wise it would be pretty fun for him, outside of that is the Hippogriffia which is a goat of a nation, all paths are in some way fun to do, and shame he won't discover a true beauty of post-defeat chiropterra.
Nightmare moon has dream powers and generally known for moving there moon among other op powers that show gave to alicorns lol Also like to vid I want to see him become a brony, corruption ark time
Chiropterra is actually based on the Enclave in the fallout franchise. You can see this if you look up a map of what cultures each country is based on in EaW (Equestria at War).
I am quite sure Equus is to be updated soon-ish so a time to play Stalliongrad may be there I also never got the pun in NightMARE Moon Not sure if it is even intended
Does "nightmare" count as a pun as, etymologically, the "mare" part is literally supposed to be a horse, because a "night-mare" was originally a supernatural creature who brought bad dreams, pestilence, etc?
It hurt watching him not do the special study options in the decision menu since they give great buffs also i do agree that you should play some other mods a give this a break but when you do return to mlp I recommend before you start the game set all ai focus trees to random that way it will be more interesting to play since allot of the cool stuff the AI is not doing unfortunately
Maybe try out Unification Wars mod as Achaemenids? They're the most finished path there if I recall right and canonical ally of the Emperor. Meaning that for hours you'd be stuck not only fixing your problems, but also saving his ass because AI can lose even with Custodes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Listen. If you do this again, and please do, you've got to do River Republic. I get being the bad guys is fun for some, especially with ponies in the mix, but you've just got to give Harmonic River Republic a try. Your goal is to unite the Riverlands into a single entity and then, if you succeed at that, prepare to weather the storm that is the oncoming Griffonian Empire. It's not the look how dark the ponies can be thing you've been doing. But it's a real challenge I'd like to see you take on.
Stallongrad is not super boring it's just be Russia with 1/4 the power in a box boring America and a few takes from Germany. As them I struggle to break out with out trying to invade Griffoina where the main faction loves to attack and Stallingrad base power is not strong enough to handle them. Hearing a rework is coming sounds nice because I think some +Factories in the mid game or more wargoals would make it easier to play..
This isn't even the most evil nation in Equestria at War. That honor goes to the Ascendancy, who are hell-bent on making all avian races extinct and go into gruesome detail with how they plan to accomplish this goal.
hey all as i said in there I will be doing other mods and things for the next several videos as I believe we have done this a lot. That being said if the video gets 10k likes we will do another one

And lastly Colthage, just like the previous two Colthage can change drastically from one path to another almost on a whim given how politically unstable it is at any time. And if you get too many civil wars, a certain prophet might appear with very interesting aspirations.
Okay, this seriously makes me catch up on My Little Pony lore. Amazing work
There should be a coconut crab nation that supports agricultural uprisings, and liberates crab ranches across the map. Kinda like Polish Peasant Republic, but with a more international impact similar to support anarchist uprisings for the Global Defense Council in Spain. They would get insane consumer population buffs and high manpower (like crabs irl), but a super weak starting industry like the Great Depression debuffs since they are mainly agricultural. For an occupation law, they should get “Liberated Crabs” that is similar to liberated workers, except it gives a minor industrial buff but gives a ton of manpower from occupied states. Some great focuses could be:
Crab Rave: +4% recruitable pop in core states
Coconut Liberation Army: +20% attack against nations that use coconut crab farms
Crustacean Conquest: +10% attack on coastal and marsh tiles
The claws do!: add Global Liberation Effort decisions to start crab uprisings in neighboring nations.
Sacrifice 200 infantry equipment on a 30 day cooldown to make uprising units stronger / better templates in neighboring nations.
Spend 50 Political power in occupied or puppet nations to “Elevate Crab Status” that gains more compliance, and weakens resistance in occupied territory, and adds more pawn points (or whatever it’s called) toward annexation for puppets. This would simulate crabs taking over society in areas the Crab Liberation Army has taken.
Really hope to see a crab nation added. For crustacea!
I can see that he is getting better at deciphering pony puns :3
I hope he will start enjoying them soon tho /)
... This is how it begins. The subversive fusion of shared interests. (\ >);^]
I've never played HOI, or any other other paradox game apart from Stellaris. I've never been interested in MLP.
I love your content. It's fun to watch, even when I have exactly zero idea what's going on
imagine the operatives sitting on all this information waiting for their general to give them the greenlight to eliminate the terrorists you had a problem only known to beuacrecy
Was Perfect Shot... Captain Mathias Torres?
Lmao, I guess SALVATION is coming to Equestria.
Two of the biggest fan projects ever made by the MLP fandom are this mod, and Fallout: Equestria, a book-sized fanfiction of MLP with a nuclear apocalypse. Which, got 2 official sequels and hundreds of un-official ones. Now I'm not complaining cuz it's based as fuck, but why are so many things in the MLP fandom about political intrigue and extreme violence?
Just book sized? It's longer than the Lord of the Rings trilogy (635000 words). It also doesn't have official sequels, only some canon-respecting sidefics.
There was also the music. The endless Collab albums. The amount of art we produced was really a golden age of its own. We shaped the internet for years.
@@CharliMorganMusic cool thing is there's *still* music being made! You should check out Vylet Pony, they're pumping out bangers all the time
Horse politics are fun
2:18 Is there a Daymare?
Daymare (ah-ah-ah)
Fighter of the Nightmare (ah-ah-ah)
Champion of the Sun (ah-ah-ah)
You're a Master of Karate
And friendship
For Everyone
“Am i the vampire Portuguese”
I noticed a great Gatsby reference im the town of Batsby.
Hey Stak if you aren't feeling well and need a break you can do so. We understand that everyone needs a break sometimes. Hope you feel better
Well, everyone except RUclips, unfortunately. I'd say he should definitely rest if he feels like it, but the Algorithm is a shitty boss.
@Wet Eyes Ocean Machine Que es eceleb?
Few things go better together than cartoon horses and slavery!
26:31 it’s the MLP of Prince Zulu I guess lol
i would be perfectly happy with a channel dedicated to mlp hoi4
I have not played them before but I think to avoid that failure thing equestria has to go down the civil war path which usually happens when you select random for them if you select what path each nation goes down.
0:11 Oh no, your wrong. It has already started.
Bro the pony admiral Perfect Shot is Captain Torres from Ace Combat
I had to aim at an enemy ship 30 kilometers away in the middle of a storm.
The seas were rough that day, and still, I landed one of the two shots.
He is!
Frickin' ponies with frickin' lasers on their heads.
Those are called unicorns.
Nightmare is the oldest pun in the book.
Ponypower than Manpower. You have gone into the world of Friendship My friend
Well, that was a fun run, next thing that Stakuyi could do is to maybe play as longsword, I think gameplay wise it would be pretty fun for him, outside of that is the Hippogriffia which is a goat of a nation, all paths are in some way fun to do, and shame he won't discover a true beauty of post-defeat chiropterra.
Coconut crab ranching. 10/10
I now cannot wait for that update, the glory of the puns will consume.
All right! More Equestria at war baby! Keep 'em coming!
This needs to become a stable series on the channel.
Nightmare moon has dream powers and generally known for moving there moon among other op powers that show gave to alicorns lol
Also like to vid I want to see him become a brony, corruption ark time
Chiropterra is actually based on the Enclave in the fallout franchise. You can see this if you look up a map of what cultures each country is based on in EaW (Equestria at War).
Vampire Portuguese?
...
OK what chapter did I missed in my History class??!?!?!?
Pizza, pasta, put it in between a bun. Beakolini needs to have his day in the sun! Please play beakolini when you get a chance.
Seems you're loving this mod so far.... it's ok, welcome to the dark side of hoi4
I am quite sure Equus is to be updated soon-ish so a time to play Stalliongrad may be there
I also never got the pun in NightMARE Moon
Not sure if it is even intended
Does "nightmare" count as a pun as, etymologically, the "mare" part is literally supposed to be a horse, because a "night-mare" was originally a supernatural creature who brought bad dreams, pestilence, etc?
I like how you say there isn't anything left to do, but my man you haven't event touched your ethically questionable experiments yet!
The word you're looking for is "inequine," stak.
It hurt watching him not do the special study options in the decision menu since they give great buffs also i do agree that you should play some other mods a give this a break but when you do return to mlp I recommend before you start the game set all ai focus trees to random that way it will be more interesting to play since allot of the cool stuff the AI is not doing unfortunately
Maybe try out Unification Wars mod as Achaemenids? They're the most finished path there if I recall right and canonical ally of the Emperor. Meaning that for hours you'd be stuck not only fixing your problems, but also saving his ass because AI can lose even with Custodes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
The only video I've actually watched of yours.
Listen. If you do this again, and please do, you've got to do River Republic.
I get being the bad guys is fun for some, especially with ponies in the mix, but you've just got to give Harmonic River Republic a try. Your goal is to unite the Riverlands into a single entity and then, if you succeed at that, prepare to weather the storm that is the oncoming Griffonian Empire.
It's not the look how dark the ponies can be thing you've been doing. But it's a real challenge I'd like to see you take on.
... Well, that's one way to introduce a jaded and cynical man to the Magic of Friendship. Through political intrigue! >)X^D
To further destroy your sanity, try playing Las Pegasus' Mr. House path.
15:11 Ahoy me mateys, it be me, Captain Torres
Yes! I just can't imagine this isn't meant to be based on him
Stallongrad is not super boring it's just be Russia with 1/4 the power in a box boring America and a few takes from Germany. As them I struggle to break out with out trying to invade Griffoina where the main faction loves to attack and Stallingrad base power is not strong enough to handle them. Hearing a rework is coming sounds nice because I think some +Factories in the mid game or more wargoals would make it easier to play..
inhumane is become in-hoof-mane, destroyer of sanity. why am i cursed with these puns
Inequine lol
I think my favorite part in all of these, is when Stakuyi skips important events.
Why the fck is this one of the most well made mods ive ever seen for this game
This is awesome. Need more. More horse Puns!
Someone make him watch like the first season. Worst case he'll like it. Best case he'll hate it and his suffering will be exquisite.
This gives me the Ordensstaat Burgund vibes from New Order. Just a fuckin terrifying idea of a nation.
Jinkies.
This isn't even the most evil nation in Equestria at War. That honor goes to the Ascendancy, who are hell-bent on making all avian races extinct and go into gruesome detail with how they plan to accomplish this goal.
0:10 we accept your sacrifice Stakuyi
more slaves!
i mean, wage workers...
in the feels man. in the feels..
Chiropterra is fun.
All nations have paths worth playing IMO, except those without a tree currently.
