“I’m no expert on running a country but we want to side with the military” peak hoi4 player energy right here
peak
Military always right
Might makes right
People with guns you mean
America: Hey y’all need a job to ‘help’ international governments?
1:43 before I played HOI4 I knew nothing about Queen Wilhelmina’s secret double life as a Bolivian brigadier named Pedro, this game is so rich in educational value
Me neither brother 😢
"The Soviets have suffered 17 million casualties they're not getting out from that". Said every German commander during Barbarossa
Yup, soviets suffered over 40 million casualties IRL but still kept existing
@@bizmasterTheSlav It's actually 27 million with 18 million of them being civilian casualties.
@@mehmetkayraozer9164 Nope, the r*ssian government in February 2017 has revealed that the true losses of the USSR in WW2 are 41 million 979 thousand people (both civilian and military). I deeply hate r*ssia (I am Ukrainian) but the new data makes far more sense than 27 million, considering the incredibly low population growth on USSR-occupied territories throughout 20th century (even though birth rates were high)
@thefisheater If it is okay for jews to dislike germans, then it is okay for us ukrainians to dislike r*ssians. They served us a genocide in 1931-1933. 8 million Ukrainians died.
@thefisheater@thefisheater The comment was not racist, nor even prejudiced as the statement was about potentially distrusting Russia as a nation/government, and not about distrusting a person because of an aspect of their identity. It is perfectly ok to distrust a government. They also said nothing about not being ok with the Soviets defending against Germany. In fact, they claimed to be Ukranian, who were also Soviets who fought Germany. I'd advise reading the comment you replied to again, as it was simply about sourcing causality numbers.
Interesting fact here, Bolivia lost a core to Paraguay in Chako war in 1932-1935 (bolivias german military specialists against paraguaian white movement russian civil war exiles). 3/4 of Chako Boreal region was given to Paraguay, but Oil was in 1/4 that was given to Bolivia (second largest oilfield in SA)
I heard that Paraguay won because they used Karl Marx's portrait, is that true?
@@katzeheika5494yes, the portrait printed soldiers and they won
@@GMeneze800weird that the White Russians were helping the communists in Paraguay, or did the communists take over later?
@@mrr9636later
@@mrr9636Paraguay was never communist. HOI4 just misunderstood what the Febriesta uprising is about. It should be non-aligned not communist
A tip for future south america games: make transport planes to supply your troops. Trust me, it does work!
And railroads everywhere, just to tame the jungles
"Grampa Javier, how did you lose your leg?"
"Well... It all started after a British dive bomber blew up our squadron leader in the Netherlands and I was put in charge of the platoon. We were on our way helping the Germans liberate Thessaloniki from the Soviets, when our halftrack ran on a Turkish minefield in Bulgaria and a shrapnel took my leg. The Romanian doctor said it needs to be amputated. I was feeling really down while recovering in a hospital in Italy, but then I met your grandmother who was sent from Hungary as part of a relief mission."
ww2 in a nutshell
had a neat idea, since you use that mod that renames divisions for channel members, maybe at the end of videos you could give a shout out to whichever member unit is the most decorated at the end of a run, like which member it got the name for and some key accomplishments? could make for a neat little thing to do
This is a really cool idea! I'd love to see it and I'm not even a member
I’ve always found South America in HOI4 to be really fun to watch (i say that because i don’t know or understand how to actually play). A theater that was mostly out of the war and has several very poor countries you can potentially take over a whole continent with, and then maybe just maybe invade the USA. Just seems interesting
Watching? Fun
Playing? Pain
As a bolivian this was absolutely hilarous. My great grandparents were part of the elite of the brown ideology party, the FSB.
They would be happy knowing that you restored the glory of bolivia i guess.
do you mean the 'Bolivian "Socialist" Falange'
Hitler was a socialist
@@Tacodog-ky5qy yeah “Falange Socialista Boliviana”
@@MandalorianStudios so your great grandparents were fascists
That's cool, where they like the Spanish falange?
Whenever you finish a war with a country that owns your cores, if at all possible annex that country whole. Then once the peace deal concludes, simply release as a puppet and make sure to click the box that says "retain core states." So much easier than hunting down every core state and clicking it separately.
great video bittersteel, love this a-z series!
Glad to hear it!
Heya! Thanks for playing my buddy's mod again! He greatly appreciates it :D
Indeed! I was eager to see this!
Just gonna drop a hint for Finland for when you get to the letter F, Do not defend Lapland. There is absolutely zero supply there so just put a couple forts on the border of USSR and on the line between Lapland and Southern Finland because Mannerheim has massive defence bonuses. (Forests are your friend)
I imagine arms against tyranny will be out by the time he reaches finland
@@mreevee7785 Well considering he does 1 video a week, He's currently on Bolivia. There's 19 countries between B-F, That's 19x7 which is 133 days. So it's a 50/50 between him being able to do Finland before. Though he might hold out on it till Arms against tyranny releases, such as doing more disaster saves.
Literally everybody knows not to defend Lapland
@@thenordiccomrade7100 Not everyone does my man.
@@MrJerppu unless one is very new to the game or just inherently shit at it, this is just common knowledge that majority knows
Uruguay: "Allow us to introduce ourselves"
Luckily, you have many letters in the alphabet before you must encounter this South American menace, though 😅
I was watching 3 of you play as the Baltics 20 minutes ago
@5cav598 lol nice that was such a fun time!
@bitt3rsteel - these are the videos, why i love your channel. Building small nation from nothing to a strong country and then save Germans in Europe. Perfect job, keep on goin :) :)
Nice, it was time to everyone to discover the suffering of being from my country.
🌊? Recomienda alguna playa
¿Lamento boliviano? Esa no me la sé, bro, pero yo también me lamentaría de ser boliviano.
Well done :D alot of clicking at the starrt tho. The focus tree looks good but its prob an hour orso in game time to get past the initial focus tree bit.
You always make my day with these videos man
the worst for bolivia isn't even losing its coastline but its losing their dinosaurs(and rubber) from acre to us brazilians
Imagine being an allied soldier thinking the war is going to be over soon, then having your position overran by Bolivians
Cant wait for next A-Z episode for Bulgaria
It was quite strange to witness an invasion of my hometown in HOI4. Most Europeans may be accustomed to it as they often play in the European setting. However, I reside in Florianopolis, Brazil, and the sight of a naval invasion in my town gave me goosebumps, to say the least. lol
You’re not alone, even as a European it unnerves me when I see a hoi4 RUclipsr encircle 20 divisions in my home tile
@@christhefirstdude i live in the gdynia tile 💀💀💀(i dont live in gdynia the city but one that is very close)
@@Serek_Studios jesteś kaszubem?
@@christhefirst tak
I think i live in the cologne tile so nothing crazy happens to me
I am BEGGING you, play the Peru-Bolivia path for a video one day, maybe even when you play Peru later in the series, it was one of my favorite paths in the mod becoming hegemon of South America and then intervening to help the soviets (I played as communist Bolivia)
When you get the bug and are unable to open the war tab: save and reload. Fixed.
It's probably one of the oldest bugs in the game. Really annoying when it hits in multiplayer
this is one of my favorite mods ever, and I want to see more content from en union y libertad please
Thank you for the video, really excited for the rest of the series!
"And apparently brigadier Pedro de Santa Cruz is a woman?! Okay!" HAhahahahahaha
This has to be one of your best videos! Wish I could see you suffer through fighting the US.
Ah, my favourite officer, Queen Wilhelmina
30:47 The Brits still have Isle of Man, so a big naval base right in the center of the screen.
Imaging you are in German Headquarter, your side are losing and suddenly a country - now an empire from South America ask to join your faction, then turn the tide.
So I recently did a Germany campaign where I buffed some Allies and the Soviets in the game setup and got some interesting results on the air war. Basically when using intercept I traded from 5 to 1 up to 10 to 1 (being outnumbered like 3 to 1 at least). Might be interesting to players struggling with air cause once the enemy is down you just swith to superiority mission, put your CAS up and cut through your enemies like a knife through butter
Watching this in la paz
this was a very fun game, and i enjoyed the axis disaster save!
The Bolivians do know how to move around the mountains for sure.
Bitt3rSteel, out of curiosity, do you plan to play any more A2Z runs with this mod? My buddy is the mod dev for EUYL, and I'm helping him with it as well. Since we plan on updating some countries in the future.
I presume and hope he will, considering how much of a glowing review he gave it for South American nations
"whats that? Bittersteel is playing Bolivia? Well i dont 'Bolivia'..."
Ill see myself out
Already know this video is gonnab e a banger
Love your video's man. Always makes my day better❤❤
Can you play as Chile😂
Nice Video, I love it to watch them❤
6:56 hmm yes thx libertad mod for showing us an alternative to putting up a portrait of karl marx 🗿👌
S̶t̶e̶i̶n̶e̶r̶'̶s̶ Bolivia's counter attack with glorious bolivian navy on the way
Imagine if this was historical, just Bolivians rolling in Europe
I dont know. I feel i want Bittersteel suffer more when he reaches Paraguay. 😂
Oh, it looks i arrived at time to fell this pain!
Choosing industry liasions from spirit of the airforce speeds up airframe research by 15%
That mod has an amazing brown shirt path for Chile
I play with this mod, it's fun, I can change history and joind the allies as Argentina and recover the Malvinas...or join the axis and take them by force and then conquer the whole continent 😆
also in the next edition of your A to Z series you are coming to brazil
You should play the Star Wars mod in a video it is so cool!
You can fix the war button by saving and leaving to the main menu and rejoin the save
1st half: pretty average nothing special
2nd half: one of the best vids youve made
Bolivia DLC coming when!??!?
Another ideas for the title.
Disaster Save: Can I Save the Axis with Bolivia?
A great adventure
I played Brazil of this mod and my god, its a decision making hellhole. So many decisions that are running out of time, so many things to click on, so many things to spent political power on. The decision list is so long. So many focuses on the focus tree to pick at the right time. So many negative notifications popping up. I have to spend so much political power I can't even spend it on advisors or military staff. I'm hoping stuff like this this gets toned down in future updates of this mod.
But other than that, I'm impressed. The focus trees so far are good, the national spirit bonuses are good, there are new provinces. Most focuses are less than 70 days. I recommend this mod to everyone to give South America a world stage in HOI4.
Fun fact: Bolivia still has a navy
Nice Video
0:30 Ah yes, "An Onion in Libertad"
had a similar game as manchukuo the other day, defeated japan and china, formed the qing, then moved to save the axis who almost capitulated by invading the uk using the japanese navy i stole, went to go invade the ussr but it was 1945 at this point and the game was super slow
As a former rise of nations player I am surprised to see the ron meme
Feb of 1947!? Maybe the longest game ever for BitterSteel
Ah yes the Bolivian Invasion of the British Mainland is my favorite Part of history
Hi Bittersteel how do you stack so many generals in the bottom of the screen? In my games generals always stack in second line and it is annoying.
"For the love of God, Germany. Can you at least contain one naval invasion?"
Imma be real with you, they are on scraping the barrel and still have zero manpower. The answer is probably "no". They no longer have any capacity to wage war on the ground or in the air.
35:04 Vichy lost its North African holdings, which triggers AI Germany to do Case Anton.
How did your convoys to Germany not get raided?
Sorry to double-dip, but you might want to think about a different strategy for taking out the UK. Sooner or later Paradox is going to figure out that Hull is the weak point and do something about it.
30:39 Isle on Mann: Am I joke for you?!
"South America, not a great place" - Bitt3rSteel
40 Minutes of pure entertainment
For god sake, play brazil with this mod
4:52 You got the people with guns but at what cost
upload more often 🙏🙏
I'll get right on it
Having played a lot of South and Central America myself... yeah. Columbia being a harder fight than you'd think is the norm.
What is the easiest way of taking the UK, France and Netherlands owned territories in South America? Is it just a waiting game until they are occupied elsewhere so its easier to take those territories out?
306 factories? thi mod really buffs south america
After watching countless videos on this channel, i want to get myself into HoI4, has anyone a recommendation which DLCs ware more or less essential and which one i could skip?
I would probably start with Waking the Tiger and No Step Back. You could probably skip Together for Victory and Battle for the Bosporus for now.
My top 3 picks are Waking the Tiger (for command power usage), No Step Back (for armored vehicle specialization), and Together for Victory (for lendlease system).
Or just buy the base game and pirate the dlc
petition for anarchist chile world conquest in this mod when it comes to chile
Can u unlock achivements with this one ? Looks great.
Because of Southamerica: When you get to Peru, please use the road to 56 and Go down the „Empower Benevidas“ by choosing the civil war. Then choose Victor Haya de la Torre and go down the right side of the tree. I personally think, its the best Peru I‘ve seen so far.
Question here. I have a couple hundred hours in Hoi4 but have never played a south American nation. I've always figured it would be impossible since ever nation has a guarantee from the US. Does that not apply if you are playing as a South American nation? Or if there some work around?
Guarantees don't count if both you and your target have a guarantee by the same country
Awesome! Thanks for the info. I feel like so many more opportunities have opened for me.
As someone who is half bolivian This is just truly beautiful....
I think AI steal your kills by starting battles into your encirclements
1:38 that brigadier has the portrait of Wilhelmina 💀💀
you should play as liberia and control all of africa :D
"The Mountains are speaking bolivian" what?💀
13:15 watch out vanilla HOI4 Portugal boliva's 🇧🇴😎👌 gonna take your crown
... Given the motorized divisions he's favoring and having to claw through all these troops with subpar starts, would not using motorized divisions to salvage equipment from his defeated enemies make sense? Especially given the number of encirclements he tends to do, or am I misunderstanding the mechanic, or how useful it is?
Yay new video
Uruguay? You mean eastern province of Argentina
Best Saturday cartoon ever
Your flavour of screwed world most clearly be strawberry.
¡Vamos con Falange a luchar!
Con su noble ideal
a la Patria, Servir.
Por Bolivia, Morir.
¡Vamos, por su patria inmortal!
Por Bolivia inmortal
correrá nuestro mar
¡Luchar, luchar, luchar!
por una patria mejor.
Y es su gran ideal
de luchar hasta el fin,
que la patria salvar
de lenin y de marx,
Dios, por la patria inmortal,
nuestro gran ideal
por Bolivia inmortal
¡Luchar, luchar, luchar!
Por una patria mejor.
Por nuestra tricolor
y un mañana mejor,
marcharemos unidos.
¡A vencer o morir!
A vencer o morir
como un buen boliviano:
con la ley en la mano
y un mañana mejor.
Ur game speed is insane
En Unión y Libertad is Argentina's national motto.
actually norway is technicley the longest country because of the small island that they have near antarctica and there antarctic claims
A request from an Indian fan of yours - As and when you play British Raj (most likely after Brazil and British Malaya), please go for the fascist (historical) path, i.e., liberate India from British rule under Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose (start improving relations to have high opinion of German Reich during Seek Help From Germany to get him as leader during civil war). Further, go for "Rule Brittania" and, if possible, to colonize all others countries who had colonized India - France, Portugal, Netherlands, Sweden and Denmark and/or Norway (Austria would anyways get annexed into Germany). I can also share the steps to get a good start and how to get best civil war setup, if required, since I haven't found an India playthrough by you.
Truly all gods chooses people.
GG!
