  • Credit to Hes for the original idea that then sparked my further exploration of capitulating and making a comeback for this achievement!
    Thanks for checking out my video! 30 minutes of hel can be fun!
    Music: Jak szło wojsko raz ulicą - raz, dwa, trzy
    Full build and focus order below!
    30 minutes of hel, but it's actually 30 minutes of heaven
    delete all units
    Research basic medium tank at the start so we can get enough of those to put in divisions to hold out after we do the warsaw uprising
    Research the next aa tech
    Research the production efficiency boost using 100% bonus
    Research maintenence companies 1
    Get Army chief
    Get tank research speed advisor
    Get industrial concern advisor
    Get artillery advisor
    Do improved worker conditions
    After germany declares war:
    Do total mobilization
    Get extensive conscription
    Go to free trade
    Join allies
    Send fleet and all planes to britain
    Once we hit 60% capitulation, we can start doing a focus , prepare for the inevitable
    Lendlease everything to britain once close to 100% capitulation, maybe around 95%. Then capitulate and take everything back by modifying the lendlease
    After capitulating:
    Instantly get the resistance artist or activist for 700 extra manpower weekly
    Don't worry about the impending left and right threats, they can't do anything while we are capped except 50/50 chance a leader is assassinated and we lose stab and war support
    Focus order:
    prepare for the inevitable
    Resistance Industries
    Exile Industries
    Foreign Air Support
    Foreign Army Support
    Expand Polish Intelligence
    W imieniu Polski Podziemne
    Central Defence of Poland
    Foreign Naval Support
    Aces in Exile
    The Castle
    the long push home
    Warsaw uprising happens
    After this, i recommend improving katowice resources and extra research slot, other than that, whatever you want
    Research:
    When basic medium tank finishes, research improved medium chassis
    When maintenence companies 1 finishes, Research maintenence companies 2
    Also will need armored trains
    After first focus finishes, this will create our agency. Then we can hire the illusive gentleman.
    Get intel on the warsaw region.
    After getting 3 agency upgrades, we can become spymaster for the allies.
    After we have 5 factories, we should upgrade our agency repeatedly.
    Make sure to get the upgrade to improve the Strengthen resistance mission
    We need either one or two Strengthen resistance missions conpleted in warsaw before we can prepare the warsaw uprising.
    Make sure to prepare the uprising but don't let it commence right away.
    Produce aa, support equipment (for engineers), and artillery until maintenance company 2 and improved medium tank chassis Research finishes up
    Put 3 mills on producing a medium tank with improved medium chassis, improved automatic cannon, 3 extra ammunition, and 1 easy maintenence module. Plus 4 levels of additional armor
    3 mills on infantry equipment, 1 on artillery, 1 on support equipment, 1 on aa.
    Train 10 infantry with support aa, engineers, support artillery, and a medium tank added to the existing 18 width of infantry.
    Don't give these a deployment zone
    Wait about a month after barbarossa is launched, then launch your prepared warsaw uprising. If germany controls all of Poland, we get more free units
    Once warsaw uprising happens, we can give our 10 troops a deployment zone and we need to pull our uprising troops into a defensive circle
    In the south we we hold the river line at Krakow and kielce. In the east, hold the river near Warsaw. In the north, hold the river south of Plock
    In the west, we will quickly take katowice and the german city just west of katowice for its steel. Then hold along the river to meet with the northern border
    We should switch to limited exports and do the focus to expand katowice resources.
    Now we easily hold and can push out if we desire or simply get the achievement
    To bait the germans to attack, simply put all the free resistance troops on training, but leave the space marine defenders with entrenchment. Then watch and laugh as the Germans destroy themselves on the space marine wall
    Optional:
    Beg for any lendlease possible and continuously dump out units to keep getting more. Beg for convoys too. Improve relations with anyone willing to donate to the Polish cause
    Getting "the long push home" focus will help them hold better
    thanks to Tom for helping me with music and with testing and critique!

    The AI goes reluctant because it's been wired to try being cautious for simple traps where you pull back over a seemingly large area to entice them in then smack in on a choke point to encircle large amounts of units. Interestingly it doesn't actually care for your projected unit count to make this choice, so they're going carefully expecting some shenanigans even though their intel will say you have no units whatsoever.

    That focus you did't want to pronounce "w imieniu Polski podziemnej" which translates to "in the name of Polish underground state". Those words were spoken by Polish underground fighters while carrying out the sentences for traitors. Just to justify them and and stand out from nazists who didn't care about the court, or judgement, just killed. So for example when underground state of Poland found out about a traitor, or colaborant they send some guys to do the dirty work but just before that they were saying: "w imieniu Polski podziemniej, skazuję cię na śmierć" which translate to " in the name of underground state of Poland i sentence you to penalty of death".

    You know there is a reason why in real life tank divisons are often 2/3 tank 1/3 infantry, while mechanized divisions are 1/3 tank 2/3 infantry. Combined arms warfare is what works. Its not a cheezy game mechanic that mixing infantry and tanks gets you strong forces, its should be considered a bug that a tank divion and infantry division on the same tile dont give such results.

      @kungszigfrids1482 Год назад

      @@Ryukuro Another game thing that doesnt happen is that when this division takes soft attack damage its not the mechanized infantry dying leaving behind unsupported tanks, instead it seems tankers get out of their tanks and take on infantry roles as if they where trained for them. Also then the division that should have lost all its infantry gets reenforced that brings down the xp of the whole divion when in reality should you have veteran tankers with green infantry that would IRL result in lack of combined arms and total failiur unless you send the divion back to the rear and have them excercise for a month to get the new infantry to learn how to fight side by side with tanks. Real life is much more complex than any game I guess.
      A clear demonstration of gamyness is that when your troops are starving on Iwo Džima you can still build forts because in game output on civilian factories can be used on any tile you control, where as IRL the general controling the island out right told the ships supplying the japanese forced that they need less food and water and more construction matrial shipped to them, causing men to fall ill from exhaustian malnurishment so that they could turn the iland in to a fortress. IRL what you ship when american submerines are throtling your supply is a hard choice, in game fort construction material just teleports.

      1. It is influenced by what Germany owns. So that is why I wanted them to reconquer all of poland if possible, so that my uprising can be bigger since soviets control eastern poland from molotov ribbentrop.
      2. The allies actually can't get in due to denmark being held by germany, and thus the strait there is closed

    Since I don't even have HOI 4, but still quite a bit interested in history I don't understand, why players defending Poland don't want to extend the defensive perimeter along the Bug river and Carpathians, only stick to Vistula and Warta.
    It would allow for more manpower and factories (from so called Centralny Okręg Przemysłowy, which on this map would span across provinces of Lublin, Kielce and Kraków) to be in control of Poland.

    • @hatless_spider
