Me whenever I hear the end music: oh no
So glad Bittersteel came in clutch to end my death scroll 😂
Did you have any sexual relations with that FUHRER??
In the same boat
Yeah absolutely
Yup
Yup
Bitt3rSteel’s psyche crumbling every time there’s a Soviet offensive is literally German high command in 1944 colourised.
Broooo😂😂😂😂
Fr XD XD
Hahaahahahahahaha
Unlike the actual OKB, there is no amateur painter telling Bitt3r what to do, so it is actually better than the reality of the time. The OKB had many sound ideas i.e. to reposition behind the Dnipro, but the painter decided he didn't want to give up the minerals in Eastern Ukraine among other things such as Operation Citadel
@@charlesc.9012 why not retreat to more defensible terrain? Was this mysterious painter stupid?
"The biggest downside is that I'll be associated with Benito Mussolini" Jesus Christ he must have left you scarred for life from all the shit he has caused in HOI4😂😂😂
He definitely has, have you seen a disaster save from about a year ago where Italy I think got naval invaded after probably getting raided and losing their navy. I don’t recall I haven’t seen that video in a while. In the message sent to him, the guy said Mussolini was being incompetent and got naval invaded.
Here he also did nothing...
EMOTIONAL DAMAGE!!!!
In real life too
32:53 Bitt3rSteel moment:”oh that’s a nuke”
Kesselring, chilling in his office in his Luftwaffe uniform: "What do you mean I'm a tank commander now?!"
I like how the offensives are historically timed. June 6th, the Allies start D-Day, and June 22nd, the Soviets start operation Bagration.
The reason why Mussolini doesn't make troops is because of what was historically called "Operation Axis," which was ehere Italian troops were disarmed, and German troops start to hold the Italian front.
I personally think there should be a positive modifuer for the Soviets based on Operation Bagration
I think that's the "Major Soviet Offensive" thing
@@buddermonger2000 they kinda suck and arent worth setting up as a player. they should be buffed and easier to setup for the AI
Only naval forts provide attack penalties against naval invasions. While the land forts do guard against the surrounding landed divisions, it would have been more worthwhile for you to build up naval forts in Normandy.
Why? The ports defended successfully against the direct naval invasions, so more naval forts wouldn't have made a difference. I have to think that his forts were indeed built to defend against the landed divisions on the sides, which arguably they did.
@@avienated I think giving the enemy forts to hold on to is stupid
@@NeichoKijimura forts aren't very useful if the divisions don't have supply
@@neoncatua5819 I know...
@@neoncatua5819 Doesn't make it a good idea
Watching you play HOI4 and making encirclements is like watching an artist paint. Absolutely beautiful!! Amazing video as always, love all your content!
Thank you so much 😀
Like watching an Austrian artist
My man took Steiner’s counterattack to a whole other level
Steiner’s counterattack was the last desperate measure, this date was way before when the germans were actually still strong but the soviets just went insane on them
Yes it did good looking heavy from tf2
I really enjoy the start dates and one of my favorite series! keep up the good work!
Glad you like them!
@@Bitt3rSteel your pronounciations of city names in that country’s language are rather annoying
Germany has 500 factorys in 1944, while Russia and Usa have less then 500 combined. 💀
Wunderwaffe finna be crazy
And if you release all possible puppets as France, you have like 400 in 1940 and carry the allies to victory.
the mod was made by a wehraboo chudcel so it's not surprising
Actually the 'Port Cheese' Tactic is a real military tactic. You let the enemy take ground and then surround it from 3 sides, ideally destroy supply lines and the enemy will have huge losses
Well the reason it's cheese is because the AI will continue to funnel it even after the units are destroyed.
Where a real commander (or even player) will understand that such a place is surrounded and won't try it again.
Yeah but a real life army wouldn’t just keep landing in the same port repeatedly
@@whitezombie10lmao, that's what Ukraine does near kherson
@@user-zn7nd5ti6w No Kyiv? No Kherson? No Kharkov? No victory in 3 days? You must be coping hard mate. Especially since the Ukrainian marines near Kherson are holding on constantly... doesn't sound to me like they're losing a lot of men there.
@iegoriasynetskyi1003 lmao, even western news call it a suicide mission. Poor Ukrainians are dying as a PR move to show some fighting for corrupt leadership of Ukraine to beg for more weapons.
Didn’t the “meta” atleast for SP recently make field hospitals a little better and even worth running?
It definitely helps when you're running out of manpower
It does help to get veteran divisions + manpower. The reason he took them off is because he had plenty of manpower, and therefore its better to produce something other than the support equipment needed to maintain field hospitals.
@@theguy3517 Understandable. Why did he get rid of the anti-tank though? Was it not worth it to help withstand the soviet offenses?
@@Hedlum generally in singleplayer the AI tanks that get made don't have enough armor for you to need dedicaed anti-tank, where artillery (and even sometimes anti-air because that has piercing) will do to pierce the tanks- not sure what the tanks premade in this mod are though so maybe the anti-tank would've been nice
@@theguy3517 he was short of manpower at the start
like m8 cav recon is so op now, it gives 25% boost to soft attack from lline and support arty which like you didnt even mention, and line AA is very very VERY useful in this situation cause both the soviets and allies will have air supremacy
Ah, but rangers are even better. And that's what I used
ye fair enough im sorry to say i didnt watch the vid fully before making the comment good vid also btw @@Bitt3rSteel
25%? 10%. Also line AA is SIGNIFICANTLY more expensive than support AA with the only advantage being the ability to shoot more planes down. when you already have an air force at least capable of intercepting planes, your IC is much better spent on more fightera
ye sorry ma bad 10%, and i agree that it is usually better but you only build air if you have air supremacy otherwise aa is good dosnt matter that its expensive its still worth it@@boop7441
Was hoping to see Kesselring in charge of the Italy group for historical reasons reee
Is it just me or did he build land forts on the Atlantikwall?
he did 😐
That's kinda the point? Unless he didn't mean to
@@glauberglousger956 the entire point of the atlantikwall is to defend against naval invasions. Coastal forts boost against naval invasions, but he (most likely accidentally) built land forts
@@donpollo3154I think he built both
@@donpollo3154 That'd be the case if you were defending against the invasion itself, but the goal is to defend the ports
So when/if the enemy lands, because they're now land troops, it's harder for them to take the port
(Or at least that's why I do it, can't tell if it was done intentionally for the same reason here)
I hope you have a merry Christmas Bitt3rSteel!
“I’ve seen some documentaries… I know what’s coming my way” 😂😂😂
They get the offensive exhaustion longer than the offence buffs? Only by a few days from looking at the Feb 1944 to Mar 1944 its 20 days buff, 23 days debuff. Just seems weird since that is meant to be the main threat?
Yeah the debuffs basically allows germany to full blitz soviets with divs that are 80% tanks lol
Every time I play Germany in Hoi4, I always plug the Vitebsk gab with forts and I build AA in the province, just to be save on that front.
Where have you learned such sorcery from
every german game always ends with "to vitebsk or not to vitebsk" hahaha
You videos are making me a better player tbh, I would be interested in seeing ya do more total conversion mod's that change the map/setting to see how ya do but these are great tbh!
Also question, do ya prefer to just have puppets or do ya plan on integrating them over time? Cause I feel like Italy at this point would have been better to be integrated once ya pushed the allies out.
i had to fall back to the rhine and river next to warasaw with level 10 forts, killed 10 million and pushed everyone out of europe.
HOI4 normal experience: pause button and do the dishes (click every f*cking possible button that u find in that messy game to win over a city)
You're genuinely an amazing player, BitterSteel, thanks for the videos, they always make my days better
I beat downfall on my first try but it took me a week and 13 hours of speed 2 and micromanagement to hold. It was 1947 when i beat the soviets. You beating the soviets without even trying that much hurts my soul.
AI loses 100 divisions: meh, it’s fine.
Bittersteel loses one division: nonononononono damnit my division is encircled.
"And then there's Japan just Japanning" 😂
your pronouncation on especially russian cities is impressive
23:02 thank you for the report, Oberleutnant Kermit
As a big time Fututrama fan since 2000, i love all the clips in your videos
I love this mod and here's some advice, try to form the Dnipper Line, grinding the Sovs over thr Dnipper is the best
Merry Christmas to you all
This has been the most glorious play of hoi4 I've seen. I've played for well over 1,000 hours and you make me look like I'm stuck on the learning curve 😅
Another day, another banger Bittersteel video
Hope you enjoyed it!
Oh! I liked how Japan said "Its Japan time!" and Japaned all over the Asia.
I fully understand the Sicily-feel-of-ecstacy! Other than thas, this was a work of art!
I don’t know why I watch this Christmas Eve just before going to midnight mass, but somehow it feels just right! Maybe a new Christmas tradition; Hoi4 and mass 😂
i really wish there is a mod/ future dlc where you get a small 5% output bonus for having factories from one state assigned to making one type of equipment .... the idea of having all my t-34s made specificaly by factories from magnitogorsk is apealing
I hate how ez u make it look. Like damn you make every situation look like child’s play. Good shit as always
Bro, that plane design was really not optimal
1. Fill in ALL the slots with: drop tanks/extra fuel tanks and armour plates
2. Put in 2 lvl 3 engines in it, it increases agility and thrust, dosnt decrease anything else but increases fuel usage
Doesn’t it drastically increase the plane production cost?
That's absurdly expensive
Wunderwaffen
but trades very well@@Bitt3rSteeli did some tests by myself and it was very ic efficient, due to the high air defence its losses are minimal and its high air attack kills so many fighters (my tests where i had an equal amout of ic on both sides testing my design against other popular designs)
Bro wanted to build the me262
Bro when he said at Mussolini "this idoit 😂😂😂😂
This mod is so fun! Been loving watching it!
I'd love to see someone play the soviets though and try to cap germany early and before any of france is liberated by the allies! More like an endsieg race!
Play with italy in this mod
Must be like 12-1 pm over there cause its 9 on the East coast usa
Watching videos like this makes you wonder how much longer the war could have lasted if Adolf wasn't so determined to never allow a retreat. Defeat was inevitable but he sure did help it come by quicker.
To be fair, being at war with the whole world, having Mr Bald Facist Italian Man by your side, and also having Internal issues is supposed to be difficult
(Historically there were other issues, from everyone being high, recruiting, using, and believing psychics, and looking for Atlantis to find the progenitor race or something, along with normal Facist dictator stuff and the like
Also, solving Italian issues, but that's not just historically an issue)
There gone reduced to atoms.
Hoi4 really needs the Soviet Offensives to get buffed they should be like the Unplanned Offensive of the Spanish Civil War but in the opposite direction. Also I think it would be cool if they added false naval invasions.
Albert your tank commander now was funny as shit
I have a question about focuses: While you have a focus selected, pp gain is reduced by 1 per day. However, focuses give you 10 days to select one without losing progress, and during that time, pp gain is not reduced by 1 per day. Are there any disadvantages to using this for extra pp aside from the micro? (It's not much but in certain situations it might be useful)
havent played in a while so im not sure how accurate this is, but i remember seeing a pp cost for starting focuses if you let the 10 free days build up
The PP is deducted once you pick a focus
@@Bitt3rSteel That makes sense. Thank you!
@@Dedelblute3Theoretically it can still be used in certain situations. For example, you finish a focus on 130 pp and you want an advisor, you can wait until the last moment in order to hire them quicker (for example a silent workhorse) then select the focus and deduct 10 pp from 0. The use cases are very few and rare though.
The most useful scenario I can think of is if you're playing some kind of mod that reduces pp gain (if overall pp gain is +1.2 or even something like +0.8 the -1 from a focus is a lot bigger). For example if you're playing KR and you have negative pp gain (below +1, so positive when not doing a focus) if you get just below a necessary amount of pp (say 144 pp) and you finish a focus it is the difference between getting the advisor or not (and if it is a silent workhorse maybe even restoring positive pp flow much sooner, gaining you lots of pp long term). These scenarios where it lines up like this are very rare though, and in these cases you may want to just waste some days to get that extra pp. Most of the time when using it it is more of the first example.
How is this possible 🤯 i had so much suffering just to hold the soviet offensive and i have no oil
You are an amazing strategic general bitt3rsteel
"japan just japaning" is the most accurate way of simplifying japans history 2:49
This whole thing with the offensive events could have easily been in NSB but nooooo...then Finland gets similar buffs to give them their Winter War powers in their recent DLC. Maybe this will be remedied when everyone gets revisited one day...or randomly part of the Khazakstan DLC that we'll totally be getting in 2025.
23:53 you are literally looking at 4 generals with the tank trait, even guderain and you dont choose either of them???
I misspoke, He's actually leading my mountaineers
While the Soviet offensive buffs would be absolutely broken in the hands of a player, I really like the flavor they add when given to the AI.
I want to see the episode where you play Poland, and in general in Polish welikye luki means literally translated big bows
I think AT isn't worthless, because everytime i played German Reich, the Allies(especially USA) always spam a lot of medium tank.
19:17-19:35
The mustache man once said:
First time I’ve seen the nuke come out haha
I swear I discovered port cheese far before Feedbackgaming covered it and I called it port fishing
Every time I see someone do port cheese I like to think they're just seiging the port.
I guess mod coded only overlord or losses in Italy turned off dragoon. Assassination on mustachio should be triggered only by losses on both fronts. There is no reason for officer revolt on successful defense.
I think I missed a few events that trigger whme losing, bit of a shame
25:42 looks like he didn't have good pull out game
Merry Christmas @Bitt3rSteel i love this late game start dates mods, but i'm too incompetent to play them.
The best mod out there atm that still is realistic and hard.
Play as China in the eight years war of resistance mod. It's very fun
I wanna see bitter do this as Japan unless he already has
Amazing content as always merry Christmas waffle man
The nuke should've had more effects dammit!
Kinda wish I had the new dlc tbh
But even if I had the money I ain’t paying 20€ for the new stuff with it, very overpriced imo
Also it’s kinda funny how by now the older DLCs/focus trees could use a heavy rework, especially the alt-history side
Shame it will never happen
Hey man I really like your videos, they are really calming for me
Lol, i thought these hoi4 videos were years old, but i saw it was uploaded 6d ago. It's been a really long time since i saw a HOI4 video.
Blast from the past
bittersteel needs atleast 1 mil subs
You kiiinda sound like Scott Manley sometimes xD
I can see the generals telling Truman "Sir our intelligence says the Germans are going to naval invade Britain" and he says "Nuke Amsterdam as a warning maybe they will turn the ships around and give up"
Damn the allied invasion of Italy was pathetic lol.
Cut it short before it could really threaten me, fortunately
I have a question: how do you make an great infastructure as an bad country as ex. Mongolia?
You mostly don't, you deal with it by supply light divisions and motorized logistics.
Most of the time it is a waste of resources to build infrastructure there.
Without industry you can't really build much supply infrastructure. Maybe a single railway and a hub or two on the border. Otherwise invest in logistics companies and trucks to make supplies last longer/go further on the map. Small divisions that don't use much supply also help
Crazy that d day landed exactly on 5 Jun
The change faction of Italy 🇮🇹 in ww2 technically resemble more a "civil war" caused by war existion than a "switch side" but they decided to use the second term for the post war propaganda.
This for persuade the victorious power to be lenient after the war.
Anyway thanks to the "collaboration government" now we can simulate this event on every nation.... oh I remember, democracies still can't use collaboration government.
I have a question, if I am playing historical finland in arms against tyranny I don't have much hope of building a worth while airforce in the short term so is it better to only use support AA in my divisions or would unit AA be better in that situation
AA would be the better bet, yes
You sound like someone who plays Kerbal Space Program. Good game, check it out
Wait, US AI using paratroopers on D-day?
I really love your videos i watch every one of them and i have a question will you play any mods like millennium dawn (they fixed it it is so much better)
My opinion is that every heavy tank that can destroy fifteen enemy medium tanks, is worth manufacturing. However, a Tiger that is destroyed by a Sherman Firefly or a British QF-17 Pounder early in its first battle is a total waste of metal. Also, are you sure XXI Elektroboot is not worth manufacturing? Maybe not in this game but I would think twice about real life.
Last time i was this early Italy still had territory in Africa
I found Bitt3rSteel on my living room television one night last week and I haven't stopped watching since. I love this guy 😃 also, being associated with Benito Mussolini somehow tops being H*tler 🤣🤣
25:35 bro first of all attack the other fkn side with 2 low org fully attriioned units, 2nd NEVER EVER attack out with encircled divisions, they get huge debuffs to attack and they de org it is idiocy to attack out of an encirclement
Panic :( and the other tile is swamp, virtually pointless to atk it
ye i feel u, but even with the swamp it would have been better imo@@Bitt3rSteel
POLTAVA!
Bro play 1944 like 1941
Seems kinda crazy how you cut away then end up with tons of equipment and stuff while your industry is being bombed by thousands of stray bombers non stop...... 🤔
True, but there's little interesting footage in staring at the battles. You should check out the average defensive battle in your own games. Defensive losses are negligible, and can be offset very easily even with the bombing debuff. The AI doesn't actually do much real bombing using Strategic bombers...it's really just that debuff.
Now,once you start attacking is when the equipment and manpower starts to evaporate
the good ending
Bro reeks edgy 13 year old
@@Averagealbanian123 shut up mountain muslim
The best part of the video is Belgian trying to pronounce Russian city and town names
I thought the purpose of field hospitals was to save wounded from dying, and thus preserve your manpower. Seems like Germany in '44 would need that.
3:45, why not build a fort on it if its "to exposed"?
nvm I spoke too soon I think, you did build a fort in the video..
Forts are good, but eventually they'll just be bombed out and useless if the attack never stops
true but what about anti air?@@Bitt3rSteel
I watched Alex the rambler slowly die on this one, while bittersteel just BODIES the Soviets the UK and the US in Italy
To be fair, Alex played Italy. I don't know if I can hold as Italy
@@Bitt3rSteel ooh I do remember that now lol
I didnt know that downfall was still updated. Did you need to use an old version of hoi4?
