Great video, quick question. What are your opinions on the current state of affairs between Kenya and United States. With the U.S. naming Kenya as a major partner, American control in Africa is once again increasing. As a famous anti-imperialist and socialist advocate, how do you feel about the Americans moving into Kenya for the long-run?
I managed to achieve this playtrough with independent communist Spain joined the Comintern and Trotskyists got purged along with a few low level generals. Still kept Tukhachevsky and many good ones as well.

@@libextremist Hope I will manage it. Anyway, defending the SU with Rykov in charge now against the Axis, except Japan. So far going good. 150 ish k causalties against more than 300 000 combined of theirs.

it needs to be tested but i think for mp centre is way better... i mean youll scale so much better with rykov but at that point youve already won whats the point
Literally any opposition is superior to Stalin, because Trotsky gives you instant war goals, and the Right gives you an uber-economy that also lets you conquer everyone.

Virgin Stalin vs Chad Rykov
Bruh I wanted to play with Rykov and he died in a purge before the revolution
Ухх, годно выглядит, надо бы впервые поиграть не за Сталина
Сделай третий Рим
I mean purging vlasov was pretty based
this inspired me to do a rykov playthrough and i am still on that playthrough
I enjoyed every second of this video
This is gold
Rykov:I am inevitable
This is actually amazing
Focus father of nations:....
five year plan: ....
father of science:....

If you go through collaboration against Stalin and then return democracy to the party you can get Trotsky as an advisor

Hmm yes the lore of paranoid stalin vs negative consumer goods Rykov
Rykov be like: Bukharin the people sustain them selves!
You can't do the five years plan and have the NEP in the same time.
All this can be done, we should first study the five-year plan in full, and then study the NEP.

as someone who hasnt played hearts of iron in their lifes i can guarantee you that this owuld make me buy the game sadly its too expensive
you can get a steam key from a keyshop for about £5

They didn't nerf it it's just buggy.
And the Katyusha version is just the hoi4 version
I hear this katyusha version all the time, but i can never find out the source. Does anyone know, where its from?

Right oposition is simply superior to going whit Center(Stalin)
Literally any opposition is superior to Stalin, because Trotsky gives you instant war goals, and the Right gives you an uber-economy that also lets you conquer everyone.
Especially since that retard shoots everyone who can do anything! I am even willing to go the fourth international if it means less dead men
Ok but how do you get COMECON and New Economic Policy? You literally can't go down the five year plan paths if you do Bukharin economy
true
i never got zhukov after the civil war. Shame.
