Of course I formed the Roman Empire in this run again, but it's not the primary objective.
The main challenge of this speedrun is going to war fast, keeping justification times low
and to never stop the aggression before the world map is fully monochrome.
The original script for this video was over 13000 words long and a lot of little snippets
were edited out in the end. If there's info missing or if you have questions in general,
don't hesitate to ask in the comments. I'll collect the most frequent ones here:
---
Q: Does this work in v1.14?
Yes, even with the Trials of Allegance DLC. But with ToA active,
you need to account for the slightly different behaviour of the American Monroe Doctrine.
In fact, you get more countries for free since Brazil joins the Allies faction if world
tension is high enough and they're threatened by hostile borders.
Q: Should I try this myself?
No. Well. If you want to, feel free, but I wouldn't advise to follow every single step.
You can replicate most of it if you understand the strategies and mechanics at play and
adapt it to your personal campaign, but even slight deviations from my run will
inevitably create differences.
Q: What nation is next?
Don't know yet. I rarely do. But I aim to do runs with all major nations. I've covered
Germany and Italy a lot - France, Japan, Soviets and the United Kingdom once. Never did a
run with the United States. Maybe that'll change with the new Monroe Doctrine. We'll see!

-Mein Fuhrer, Italy wants to join our faction, what do you think should we accept them?
-Never mind, they already out of the faction. (About 50 times)
Italy was about as decisive on being a part of the axis as a girlfriend is choosing what place to order from
"Sure, lets join the axis. Actuallyyyyy not rn i just wanna be alone. Nvm maybe we can try it, nah im not ready for that commitment yet"
Im my head cannon, Mussolini got stuck in the revolving door.
Hitler was on Meth, he probably thought Mussolini was a good diplomat
16:00 That definitely has to do something with the buggy Impassable states, which for some reason they made us unable to take in the peace deals since BBA, France and UK have states in Sahara and Australia has Central Australia
Hmm. Never thought about that. I always assumed that it's a remnant of a bug from early BBA where nations would go into exile when they in fact shouldn't.
*Italy announces its in the axis then backs out 50 times* *rest of the world goes on defcon 1*
I don't know which hoi4 youtuber is more impressive. You with your hoi4 speedruns or Legit Burger who conquers the world with literally 1 division
both are impressive.
@@Lancynicallyboth are better than old guard hoi4 RUclipsrs who have grown stale and lost appetite and patience for real challenges like these (fair enough)
I conquered the world with 0 divisions
One is very speedy and the other has mental endurance
Great Video mate :) I really feel the hard work you put into it!
Thank you very much!
YOOOOO it's chaotic florious LESS GOOO
M3an you are one of the hoi youtubers that are not annoying to watch and actually really interesting
Thank you for your videos❤️
Thank you! That's very encouraging to read!
HE RETURNED HELL YEAH
I won't stay away as long again. Pinky promise!
😎
@@m3an Love your videos i always learn from them. Keep up the good work!

That's a great run! Thank you in particular for explaining all your actions in detail, that was really entertaining. Besides, the country's leader in the corner of each video is a great and unique touch, love that a ton.
14:54 those ghost nation, at least for the example of France, it actually can be useful.
You see, there is mistake which I had discovered last year in the french focus tree. If germany forms HRE and EU and then gets annexed by Napoleonic France, if it completes the focus disunite germany, Prussia gets cores on all Benelux, Austrian, Italian, Eastprussian and even FRENCH states.
To achieve it's maximum cores without cheats, you have to play germany, fight against the allies and make sure that france capitulates and establish vichy (important: AFTER they cored Algeria). Then you normal continue, in the peace conference you puppet free france, so it annexes Vichy.
Then you normally continue, clapping Italy.
Then you Oppose the shadow man. All puppets will stay on the shadows man's side, meaning you can simply annex all of them in the peace conference, especially annoying Regno de Sud. Then you normal continue forming HRE. If Denmark had reaffirmed neutrality, you do attack them, so they become your Protectorate. So you can get a core in North Schleswig via the occupation decision. Sabotage Germany and release yourself as a democratic nation (probably UK, cause they can puppet nations as democratic)
You make HRE democratic, annex them and release them as yourself to form EU.
After that, you release france, but retain core states. Now you are France in Algeria. And thats the point of ghost nations!
You still have your fleet. So you naval invade the EU and after you capture Paris, Free France gets it's original focus tree back. Before you capitulate EU, you need to release Algeria in the dessert, because it needs to annex 3 certain states, for that Bavaria, Hanover and Schleswig-Holstein can't spawn if you complete the focus Disunite Germany. Then you just go down the Napoleonic tree et voila, Prussia will be released in nearly entire central european state!
Ghost Navy is great
Wow
Fantastic video. I'm amazed at how clear you make your explanations throughout an hour long video.
I was very worried that I might not be able to explain all the why's and how's in a way that is easy to follow so thank you very much!
World Conquest are my favourite!
The amount of work put into your videos is insane, your success is well deserved 👏
Thank you! Great to hear =)
man, you are insane!! Brazil loves you, bro!
Epic video man, this deserves way more attention
You are back! I can’t wait to watch this!
Your runs never disappoint
Appreciate your effort on these videos. Fun content
You’re a gem of a hoi4 content creator!
great run man, and great explanation as always
Thank you! I really needed to spill it all out in one go. The video got way too long in return, but I just didn't know what else to cut =D
I heard they patched order 66 😭😭 do you think that will negatively effect some country speed runs like the Japan one 😮
In newer versions some older strats and exploits just don't work anymore. You can still go back to the version that the run was done in through the Steam betas though.
I think someone discovered a way to do order 66, basically you have to request forces from a puppet, set up a garrison order, delete the puppet's forces (this will send the troops back to the puppet), declare war and request the forces from the puppet again. I recommend watching sejozwak's video for that
Dude I love your videos, I usually don't like longer videos but yours always get me hooked all the way to the end, please upload more 🙏 Also, you could maybe try a WC speedrun with a minor nation
"Speedrun isnt a superior playstyle, play the game as you like"
Me after i got the "Holy roman and empire" , "Stalin how many guns he has" & " Collect all rome" achievments in early 1937 after i spent 7 ingame years trying to get "Pizza time" :
BRO IT IS SUPERIOR!
Very interesting video. 1937 wow. Plus thanks for explaing details such as ghost countries since I've always had troubles with those.
Great video as always!
This is really good👍
Nice run
Nice video. Liked how you explained the mechanics!
HES BACK!
Out of all 50 states, you made the USA Colorado 😂
Welcome back and great content as always! Thanks to you, I now have a very nice way to spend my weekend 😊
Hope you enjoy the extra long format =) The next video is probably going to be a bit more reasonable in length.
@@m3an Don't worry, I don't mind long formats when the content is so good :)
Welcome back, hope you wont forget the password ever again :D
i love watching you playing, but i'd hate to speedrun myself
I just realized, why is the German leader faceless on your game? Mine shows the face.
That's how the game is shipped in Germany. Hitler and some fascist advisors are censored like that by the devs to not get in trouble with German laws and press.
This is great
“earth's soft underbelly”💀
can't wait for more videos. Keep it up. you're one of my favourite hoi youtubers
If only Mussolini knew this was possible in 1936
I tried out the joining faction exploit to higher world tensions. Actually, if you would have done it more consequently all 26 hours, unlike how you did roughly every 2 to 3 days, you could have reached the 100% world tension around 10 days earlier.
I saw in a game once a ghost nation, but also visible on the map. To be precice parts of fashist italy survived after the italian civil war. Tho this happend in road to 56. It could be that this can happen with italy in vanilla game too. At least sounds familliar to your problem here zoo.
With ToA active, the USA is not guaranteeing the Argentine on 11 Sep. As an alternative, I declared on the Philippines to draw US into the war. However, during the Peace Conference, only the US and Philippines could be taken, and other nations didn't join the fraction. May I ask how could that be solved?
Damn
Liked and Subbed. Hello by the way first timer here.
Welcome! Happy to have you here =)
babe wake up m3na just posted
field defence orders for those one island spots lol easier than fallback lines
Nice video.
Very cool, man.
I really need a Urss world conquer. Now that order 66 is gone i dont figure how do ot.
order 66 is still around, just harder to do
Great world conquest, now do a world conquest with sultanate of aussa.
As an Italian
Hell yeah
this is how italy thought it would go
I got it as the Regnum romanum, but in 1970 😅😅
how did you naval invade the usa? i couldn't do it when my naval supremacy is at 1%.
USA also doesn't guarantee Argentina in my playthrough for some reason
You need to have navy and invasion ready and launched before declaring war. You don't actually get supremacy, just a brief window during which the US fleet isn't on mission yet. If you're playing on the recent version, the Monroe Doctrine works differently. The guarantees are now a national spirit and take about two weeks to trigger.
1) how have you done that intro globe maps ; 2) i can tell ur german not from the accent but from the obscure face of adolf
Argentinian Fourth reich reconquer germany speedrun next!!
Well in my games, im not allowed to do airdrop or naval invasion from Germany's land if it is not called into war. Am I missing something?
Hard to know without the specifics. Sounds like you only had mil access.
Waiting for albania world conquest speedrun
Turan speedrun please
In my save Italie steel fighting ethiopia in 1938 💀
Make a Fembavaria mod speedrun wc(all dates)
Awesome video again. Vielen Dank dafür
With all due respect sir. You are an android.
Niceeeee
Can this be done in base game
after the justification of Iranistan
You forgot Liechtenstein
but how do you do a naval invasion with 33% you can't until 50
70%, but why do you think that's not the case? The key are prelaunched invasions that take off unchallenged.
@@m3an I tried to do it the same but I got 33% and it wouldn't start. I understood that it's an Intel problem but since I don't have the DLC I can't increase it right?
@@davidecentomo6429 You have to declare war immediately after you have the CB, so ideally at 01:00h. Have your fleet on invasion support and activate the invasion orders beforehand. If you do it right, even a single ship is sufficient for naval supremacy since the AI hasn't send their fleet on a mission yet.
@@m3an I tell my troops to leave before declaring war so as soon as it starts they leave but despite this they fail
@@davidecentomo6429 you have to declare on a country that the UK will guarantee. Directly justifying on UK will alert them and they will put their navy up. However, they don't see wargoals on other nations (even guaranteed) as a threat.
25:23
Uk won't guarantee Albania
You need world tension at atleast 25
woher in deutschland kommst du
Schwierige Frage, bin in meinem Leben rund 20 Mal umgezogen =) Aktuelle Wahlheimat ist Berlin.
@@m3anok, ich lerne deutsch und du hast ein interessanter akzent. cool
Er ist wieder da!
is trotsky ussr still the fastest way to wc in the game?
No, order 66 got patched (except for a now less useful way that has to do with puppets)
@@helenos_152yeah i know u can still do order 66. if you use that way with like france as a puppet is it the fastest way still? or does some other nation have the new record for the latest version
British empire is faster
@@ltdfoundation8020 is there a video showacsing it
Hi
*PromoSM*
чувак ты просто психопат
Invading the soviets in winter so you can fight around moscow in the summer is genius.
2 Width Cavalry my beloved
You managed to make an Italy with Mussolini not useless, bravo xD
On the other hand, what I love of WC with most nations is the amount of manipulations you must do to achieve massive conquests without having large wars (except vs the soviet union, those are bloody people to conquer even stretching their lines as you did in this run)
How did you naval invade the UK without naval supremacy? The North Sea was yellow?
Probably slightly over 50% supremacy
wow this is insane! One question though, maybe I missed it? How do you get the minors all on the peace conference? I haven't done quick Allies rush for a while now but I seem to remember if you cap the major too quickly the minors joined but not yet contributed in any way only gets a truce but not included in the peace conference? That was why my early caps of UK always left Canada the leader of Allies.
There was a fundamental change a couple of versions back that completely removed the war score condition. The only requirement now is that the minor nation needs to be in the faction that capitulates.
Thanks for confirming! Again, I could see the insane about of work behind your vids. I couldn't even summon the courage to do the Brazil world conquest achievement

Good lord I thought my run was fast wow
What a game. Very nice.
