He could do it as Japan.

​@@azlanadil3646he already conquered Americas as Cuba so it won't be difficult for him. More of annoying than anything

[@James-xv4mn]

okay, taureor I don't know about the British, but that's probably too easy...you still can play them though, but someone like Philippines, Dutch East Indies, Ireland, or a releasable would be cool to see as well

[@kospandx]

Challenge: Go communist with UK and survive the scripted civil war when you don't do decolonisation.

[@Nexsyana]

Ohhhh, I really like that one

[@the_fallen_dan]

I mean, if there was a mod that changed Sanationist Poland to Satanist Poland, that would definitely be worth playing!

[@Michael_Brock]

How does that work? Maybe There is an off map hell. That Lucifer supplies expeditions, convoys, weapons and technology progress to his worshipers. Let's stick in the papal city that provides counter help. Then add a country scale holy to satanic with the usua political axis. Lastly add an invade heaven or invade hell if you conqueror the world as an end game feature.

If you can do socialist democratic italy through the civil war after forming roman empire as fascist italy you can also do the abolish the colonies focus which allows you to core the entirety of africa and the middle east.

Challenge: As Sinkiang, unify both all of China and the Turkic Union

[@EvilEgg331]

I tried, lost to Xibei san ma :(

[@lewisjennings9043]

@@EvilEgg331 Its harder than it looks because its near impossible to do diplomatically, and if you lose one border war to Xibei San Ma (the only country you border) it sets you back immensely in time and political power. Somehow I've formed the turkic union from Tannu Tuva but not Sinkian yet.

[@finnpeterson4335]

Ugh, that challenge really sucks. If you miss one border war, you have to reset the run early on, you have to build sooo many supply hubs, and on top of all that, you have to capitulate the USSR from the east, which is almost impossible without any supply whatsoever.

[@masterbobli4371]

Bonus points: Take the opposition path; and switch non-aligned (which can be done if you accept to be puppeted by China)

Sounds fun

I don't mind the longer videos Also: I'd like to see an India game, one that shows how to make then good (or at least better). Maybe India as the top regional power?

[@ziz_9424]

Suggestion: Do a run forming al-Andalus or Turan to their maximum extents (getting all the possible cores for those nations) Also, personally, I don't mind the longer vids at all!

Holy moly he's actually doin it

[@olivers.7821]

I liked long videos because they are nice to watch when laying back in the afternoon and see every decision you made.

[@Tizze87]

I have an idea Taureor, you always loved Trotsky back in the day. He is still very good, if you get Trotsky, Karl Radek and the "Permanent Revolution" focus then all your justifications are 10 days. Add Maksim Litvinov to the mix and you can get military access to all democratic nations aswell! Love your content, and please let Trotsky redeem himself in your eyes!

[@Roketsune]

We need to get Equestria At War to number one! Also, this is a formal suggestion to do Equestria At War again.

[@jrangel118]

Idea: What is the best kill/death ratio possible in hoi4?

[@Taureor]

1:0? killing at least one enemy once not losing any troops makes the ratio mathematically impossible, so I guess that.

[@jrangel118]

@@Taureor good point but I got up to 800k kills on Japan losing less then 30k losses with USA (naval game). Wondering what the limit is.

[@andrewgreeb916]

If you're going planes only you can manage a 1:0 kill ratio

Satanist Poland I believe refers to a specific path in Kaiserredux as Poland! Gets you cores on the world and everything.

[@Taureor]

Or it's misspelled sanationist Poland

[@spaghettitime1124]

@@Taureor It's possible! Wouldn't surprise me, honestly. Either way, the Satanist Poland path is quite fun in KX, though it might feel a little derivative after having just done a Spanish Anarchist run.

[@Hadar1991]

World conquest with a nation which starts with impassable terrain only? E.g. start as France and, core northern Algeria, release Algeria without the French cores and play as them. :)

As Yugoslavia, go down the path where you release all your states, and then take down all 3 major factions without joining any of them AND without reuniting with your puppets. You can create a faction

[@antaris31415]

The 'best' way to execute the civil war is subjective but it is worth noting that at the end of the war, you will receive *cores* on all the *nationalist states you have fully converted* before the war as well as all of the *republican states which have not been fully converted* by the nationalists. The cost of contesting a fully converted garrison is the same as the cost of re-integrating that core later, hence it in terms of PP usage it is 'optimal' to never contest any garrison but rather to just core them back later. In practice however I find this to be more of a pain than it is worth, and I do contest the garrisons, but only with the goal of keeping at least weak control over all of my own in order to receive the cores when the war ends. If you want to make the civil war as easy as possible, trying to obtain full control of the Galicia garrison (as Taureor suggest in the video) is a good way to go because it is the only one of the seven northern (nationalist) garrisons to contain a military factory. For people who want to play this tag with historical AI i would recommend attacking the Guanxi Clique as your first justification. They can easily be capitulated with naval invasions from Macau and once you link up with the Japanese along the coast to the north (just rush & naval invade towards the north after the clique capitulates), it should be possible to win the sino-japanese war with a fair share of war contribution by pushing westwards. After China is defeated, you will be well-positioned to quickly occupy Malaysia and Indonesia for their resources in a subsequent war against the Allies. I've been playing as the anarchists quite a bit since they are my favorite tag, but I could still learn a few things from this amazing video! Can't wait for part 2!

As a Spanish speaker, I'll say that the G in "autogestión" is more like the sound that H usually makes in English (similar to J in that respect); aside from that, your pronunciation of the word is fairly solid for someone that (I assume) doesn't speak a lot of Spanish.

[@sleepchad]

Not sure if it's different in Catalan though :3

[@Lxcx333]

Only full equipped armies sound nice because it is the opposite of your "spam infantry". You can make it into several challenges like "only tanks, only mobilized infantry, only cavalry, etc.." This feels like the game and war are supposed to be fought. Well planned, fully equipped divisions and not spam infantry with only a fraction of their guns and abise the hoi4 tile system. Well unless you are the ussr or china, then it is viable because it is historically :D My favourite challenge would be to have mixed and fully equipped divisions. So accurate armies that are made of tanks, mibilized infantry, cavalry and infantry divisions. And planes ofc. And no one cares for ships, just spam submarines ;) This isn't a valid request because i request several stuff in one comment, i know that but i want to make others like the idea and ask for this stuff in other comments :D

[@user-lz6pm9cv2g]

Please have a cavalry template that charges over the world for the fun of it. Also for your next challenge I'd like to propose something a bit more open ended: I'll call it the empires of evil. Play as Germany, you can only declare war on the Netherlands (with only additional option to puppet Sweden). Once you take the Netherlands, you are no longer allowed to declare war on anybody in Europe, including USSR. No focus wargoals, no nothing. You can puppet with resource rights Indonesia if you want. In order to start attacking European nations, you have to collaborate with Japan to capitulate all of China first.
