I mean, historical chinese divisions in ww2 were whatever they had to spare in the region There was little optimal organisation in the KMT to allow a single unit to show its face and even then most chinese units were practical militia units of again whatever they had mixing that in with the units being understrength.
@@derspieler4793I will never understand why half the minor nations don’t know what a train is, despite the fact trains are over a century old at that point in history.
Or the later starts (1943, June 1944, December 1944) in Darkest Hour. Especially that last one is something else. I've found a doctrine switch to be no help, and front line combat (near) impossible. I have only managed to cheese it.
It's honestly a shame that the 39 start date is so bad... I quite like the concept of being able to start at different points... The only problem is that it clearly hasn't been touched since the game came out
Small tip regarding railways. It's much faster to build every rail segment individually if you have more than 1 construction line, than building it as a whole.
0:01 yeah that's basically all of the east, you mostly just here about central and west europe, how some countries existed and also were part of ww2 but not really how or what they did AND of course how in the last second the great heroes from the USA all on their own crushed and annihilated the undefeatable strong Nazi Army on their highest Point and saved the World
Honestly, I want to recommend China National Focus, a very humorous and interesting mod (unfortunately it has stopped updating) if you want to take a break. Aldrahill, thank you for your entertaining videos, don't tire yourself out!
Unfortunately, it’s kind of impossible for a one on one war against the ai at this stage to be “challenging” in any real sense, they need to fix the ai man
@Aldrahill when receiving lend lease, be sure to either ask someone else for convoys or your lend-leasing nation for some with the modify lend-lease request. Its sort of silly how PDX hasn't made a way for the AI to see/ask how much convoys you have.
Play as the nationalists in Eight Years War of Resistance, it's very fun when the Japanese AI can just ignore terrain penalties, get supply buffs and get a flat 40% attack bonus against you for like half a year while you have to work your way out of -75% attack and defense army corruption spirit, not to mention the industry debuffs. Though once the front stabilises (you get a national spirit that ups core defense and gives other buffs according to your surrender progress, alongside decisions to do the same, while Japan's buffs wear off), it's quite rewarding to reorganise and push out the Japanese.
You forgot to put a company on youre guns...... there was this plus sign without any companies and these companies can help you make more guns and stronger
@Aldrahill i looked away from the regional support for 40 seconds, and suddenly Gxc is actually china, and im clearly some idiot for simply holding off the entire nation of japan by myself. Really hope they rework that mechanic because its a massive waste of time
Here's an idea! Ahistorical but with historical divisions/templates! Like trying to reform the HRE as Italy with their... tanks... actually for your own mental health please ignore this comment!
@Aldrahill go for it dude! I don't think it's a rehash if it's ahistorical, after all that kinda changes the whole game (different enemies/allies etc., different goal)
@@Aldrahill yea I hear you. I feel like a lot more people would play it and be interested if they actually knew. Small things like as Germany you need to build only mils are almost impossible to find
okay but when historical communist china you prob need some guns for that tho i heard that communist china won the chinese civil war by human waving by using none other then ppl whit guns

How to get lobotomized 😍😍😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰
@@elmothecomrade5643 Wait for him to get 300+ templates to show ever chinese division in the war as they were all random assortments of units
And BICE
Average countries’ research in 1939 be like:
Battleship III
Armored cars II
Fighters from 1922
Guns from the 1890s
And doctrine from 1809!
@@Aldrahilland we dont know what a train is, but we have a railnetwork
And Rocket launcher from 1635 ancient China

You know what is relaxing, easy and certainly not insanity inducing? That's right, Black ICE China with historical divisions
Oh god xD
Black ice?
This has convinced me Aldra has to play Eight Years War of Resistance. One of the most frustrating but fun china campaigns I have had.
YES I realllly need to play that! Next time I wanna do China not in black ice :D
@Aldrahill Just be careful, cause they updated it and last I checked Shanghai is like 7 gorillion provinces so drawing a Frontline in it is hellish.

@@Aldrahillyou should also do communist china
with historical division templates as well?
2:30 ah yes, of course, 1939 China, well known for their very powerful heavy tanks
Oh course! Who doesn’t remember the Chinese heavy tank, destroying Japanese forces?!
Chinese Tigers incoming!
It's honestly a shame that the 39 start date is so bad... I quite like the concept of being able to start at different points...
The only problem is that it clearly hasn't been touched since the game came out
Since you've done WW2 and WW1,Historically Accurate Crimean War Divisions
i have played like once on 39 start date and it was so wierd that i never did it again
Yeah it is particularly cursed
Britain went change in course and india communist in mine @@Aldrahill
Bro is not beating the masochist allegations
I’m cooked
now no one will see my 1939 start date joke
IM SO SORRY :( The color was shit though :( It was in my heart!
12:33 For some weird reason, AI always cancels non-aggresion pacts, even if you're friends with them
They so rude :(
1939 start date is so cursed but what a challenge
Small tip regarding railways. It's much faster to build every rail segment individually if you have more than 1 construction line, than building it as a whole.
the memes at the start are always so funny for me pls keep them in every video that you make
Damn thanks! It takes me like half a day to find the perfect memes xD
"And there goes Manchukuo. Why im the hell is this going to communist China?" Definitely sounds like a historically accurate moment
When I first got the game, I would only do '39 thinking it would be easier for me since I didn't have to do any buildup.
Oh god you poor thing xD
I did the same challenge once, I still don't know why.
You’re a big a masochist as I am
0:01 yeah that's basically all of the east, you mostly just here about central and west europe, how some countries existed and also were part of ww2 but not really how or what they did AND of course how in the last second the great heroes from the USA all on their own crushed and annihilated the undefeatable strong Nazi Army on their highest Point and saved the World

I’ll check it out :) and thank you so much!!
btw, 7:59 it was not the yellow river, it is the Chang Jiang that you are referring to, specifically the Han river
The only reason anyone should EVER play 1939 is for the 30 minutes of Hel achievement.
Great video
The saying of the Day “Oh My God!”
It's hard to believe that 1939 scenario is just 1936 with different borders.
Also, fortunately for you, AI is still AI.
Yup, the division designs and equipment setups are just AGONY
Next video will be puppetmaster japan, rigth ?
It’s written down ;)
Puppetmaster japan, left ?
Luxembourg world conquest with black ice mod when?

I think it looks brighter? But then again I couldn't even tell it was dark in the original so I'm probably not qualified to tell you 😂
xD
North africa campaigns historical divisions and battle strategy olny
Do you mean the board game? Oh god xD
Might be fun to see you try some magna europa on hard difficulties or historical templates if that is even possible.
Now thats a silk road!
gonna unsubscribe so Mao loses

20:10 Foreshadowing the near future... crazy...
Just as a fun fact, when you play china you can get the event of the united front even if you don't complete the focus
That is so weird...

YES I reallly need to play this mod! Maybe on a mild reboot of historical in a while?
i tried this about a month ago... i lost about 5 times and "strategically redeployed"
Tank only U.K. but you have to lend lease the Bob Semple Tank.
sounds like Aldra could use some Ottoman armored cars in his life
You forgot to put a company on youre guns...... there was this plus sign without any companies and these companies can help you make more guns and stronger
I do this ALL THE TIME ARGH
Ok, now try it in expert AI mod🙃(without cheats for AI like supply or units, but on challenging AI level)
germany at the end of the vid really said 3rd times a charm
im gonna assume this was worse than CBT Aldrahill, one struggle.
Lore of China in 1939 is Pure AGONY in HOI4 momentum 100
Thank you man for your videos,they are more historical than my school lessons for sure
Happy as a child when see your videos
Hello from Ukraine🇺🇦
Damn dude thank you so much for this comment! Really glad you enjoy them :)
I tried 1936 and even that didn't go so well for me...
You should do Romania and Hungry Historical from 1936
Actually tried this and was somewhat holding until the warlords took over
Oh damn the warlords rekt you?
@Aldrahill i looked away from the regional support for 40 seconds, and suddenly Gxc is actually china, and im clearly some idiot for simply holding off the entire nation of japan by myself. Really hope they rework that mechanic because its a massive waste of time
have to admit manpower is the most important factor if you play decently.
Ah yes pure suffering.
Here's an idea! Ahistorical but with historical divisions/templates! Like trying to reform the HRE as Italy with their... tanks... actually for your own mental health please ignore this comment!
I wanna do that! I’m worried it could just be a sort of rehash of previous videos, but with other stuff happeneing in alt hist, you know?
@Aldrahill go for it dude! I don't think it's a rehash if it's ahistorical, after all that kinda changes the whole game (different enemies/allies etc., different goal)
Could you do a BICE Germany guide?
Oh god I gotta get good at the game first xD
@@Aldrahill yea I hear you. I feel like a lot more people would play it and be interested if they actually knew. Small things like as Germany you need to build only mils are almost impossible to find
I will give out my toughest challenge. Try to defend france with terrible processing power
Oh god xD take out my cpu
@@Aldrahill On my way 🫡
yo btw it says hoi3 in the description instead of hoi4
Bruh what :P illl fix that
I wonder if such thing is possible in Russian civil war. I don't think they had a certain template
my man is doing worthless focuses to get more manpower when he could be doing econ focuses to get more factories 😬
I'd recommend you try out Eight Years' War of Resistance mod
Definitely! It's on my list! :)
