[@peterkadlecik7813]

Great video as always my friend...just one qestion: Vojvodina has whole starting Hungary as core teritory. At least it was like that in previous patch. Would this kind of corring still work? Give hungarian teritory to Vojvodina and by uniting kindom it should give you Hungarian teritory also as core. Same with transilvanian teritory...

I think I've met every criteria for the achievement for it while in the Comintern and didn't get the achievement, so I think you have to be in either the Allies or the Axis

Followed this guide on By Blood Alone and it mostly still works. I had to start over once because France guaranteed my independence a day after my war goal ran out. Didn't really adjust anything other than starting my war goal against Romania a few days later than what I did the first time.

Nice Video, hvala 😉

[@kiriseraph9674]

If you turn Italy into a collab government then you wont have to fight over it in the peace deal, although that only applies to the territories that you held when you made the collab gov. In BBA they become a puppet automatically an you only need to drop them down to integrated puppet to keep them. That way you only need to fight over the territories that the allies held during the peace deal, and the BBA peace deal mechanics make it easier than it was, plus you will have more warscore points to put towards fewer regions on account of not having to select most of Italy. Also you only need to occupy the regions to get the achiev so if you have to fight the allies you only need to occupy the lands to win, so it is best to snatch up the island provinces first, then the coastal provinces, then the inland provinces. If you end up losing out on the inland provinces then so long as you surround them it wont be hard to take them the instant the war breaks out, just need some defensive units on your borders and shorelines so that you dont lose anything to a naval invasion.

[@unsunkenhero]

Once again, a achievement run for the ages...I am really impressed with your strategies and set ups. Now. How about a "One Empire" set-up. Say the first 5-6 years. The rest is self-explanatory. :-)

[@fraulens]

Interesting video! I used a similar strategy to your previous one to get this achievement. I flipped commie via the focus, justified on Austria twice (to get a faster justification due to higher WT) and while fighting against the Austrians, I justified on Greece. I fought a couple months while staying on the defensive (disbanded my paratroopers by mistake) on both the Greek and Romanian fronts. The Greeks beld themselves to death, paving the way for my swift advance into their territory. I did invest in fighters and CAS, they helped me a lot against Romania. I got pretty lucky, as Germany did have some hard times in fighting in the West (France fell only in January 1941). This delay made the Jerries quite weak, and together with the Soviets I could finish the Axis off by 1942.

[@user-gx4cd1jb9h]

Great video.

[@luxianovic6208]

would like to recomend to some people to before the focus to realease the yugo countries happens you put some more divisons to train and than cancel them after the focus you gett all the manpower you had before whitout loosing it :D

eyy, my favman from the place where you go if you want to invade france uploaded again! how are you my spy?

[@combrade-t]

Mods: Gates of Versailles is quite a fun mod - though it doesn't seem to be very stable right now for some reason. Youjo Senki Redux is also pretty good - once the mage divisions are properly made its nice to use them to go really fast. There's also Legacy of Carlos Rex which is pretty interesting - though the fact that if you reunite Germany your colour doesn't change is a downside because The colours don't look great when you are a huge empire they just aren't satisfying to have a puke green country. Stalemate: The Frozen war is a great mod too, though you are often stuck with a stability debuff because the soviets get killed and you can't complete the focus, and you can be locked behind focuses eg. a german path to invade russia then the soviet union requires that both of them win the civil war and do the focus thats required, which the AI often takes ages to do.

[@totodile331]

for civil wars you can train 1 horse (bacause they will not split ) and just rush victory points

[@IvosevicJ]

Great video. Question, what has changed in 1.10 to make the paradrop on Austria pre Anschluss a non starter? Does Germany pick a fight with you if you control it?

[@Bitt3rSteel]

You are much slower to flip, ergo less time to get your hand on Austria.

[@22kapiten]

Serbia was not only the victor of ww1 but it played a key role in breaking the Thessaloniki front. You have so many books written about Serbian victories in ww1.

[@scott3017]

Great video! A couple thoughts 1) be careful of the Soviets if you go fascist instead of Communist. They justified on me as soon as I finished off Romania, and they justified on my capital so I couldn't do your "reunite the kingdoms" trick. 2) a collaboration government on Greece helps so you can get some factories and resources from compliance while your country is a mess. 3) doing the focus "end the regency" flipping to democratic after everything is all done gets you the "Peter's Pride" achievement.

[@aidenbooksmith2351]

In reply to 1, can't you leave yourself some other territory and then release Serbia to avoid that?

[@scott3017]

@@aidenbooksmith2351 i don't think you can do that while you're playing as yugoslavia. In that part of the focus tree, yugo is broken up into its constituent countries as puppets, and you're left with serbia as your core territory.

[@milospesic2454]

I find fascist run to be much easier if followed by democratic flip. For some reason did not encounter Stalin's rage and progressed Hungary a lot quicker. I usually go Bulgaria, Hungary, Greece, and then Romania. Just easier to mess with AI.

[@scott3017]

@@milospesic2454 I think what happened is that the AI Soviets finished their focus to claim Bessarabia while I was still at war with Romania, but occupying Bessarabia. This was also prior to NSB, so I don't know if the new USSR tree would affect that at all.

[@jasondetata8098]

Thank you for this and the Dracula's revenge. The randomness was frustrating. I did go fascist because the timing wasn't working for me. When I was communist hungry kept joining the axis as i was attacking them. Since I was fascist it made the soviets justify Bessarabia before i could switch to communist, so I released Romania to cancel it. The soviets demanded Bessarabia, and it was given up. As I had to take on the axis anyway, I figured I could take the soviets out after I got Italy. I did gain another achievement without realizing it, "The Balken Powder Keg," because I was like I'll join the allies to make it easier to take out the Soviets.

@@Bitt3rSteel Indeed!

I have a question, Bitt3rSteel. You check the war participation screen by clicking on the world tension button and then selecting the war. Why do you do it that way? I've seen others do it your way and I don't get why you add an unnecessary click. Just click on the war alert icon at the top and it takes you directly to the war participation screen.

[@Bitt3rSteel]

I am a flawed person

[@PeakCaveman]

Ran a SFR Yugo few days ago, seems old method may avilable; go straight for Pan-Slavic faction, annexed Austria & Hungary, as FRA, Czech, Romania & SOV guranteed me when Italy invaded me the first three joined my faction, and SOV jumped in, Asked expeditionary force and puppeted ITA quickly. For igniting so much WT FRA & Czech leaved but that's ok, BUR is in Japan's faction, which shouldn't be a problem, I think eating up Greece & Romania(will be kicked out at a good moment) shouldn't be that hard.

[@Patton1944]

As an alternative Yugoslavia has quite a bit of chromium so they are in a good position to make heavy tanks. If you time it right you can get the focus that gives you mechanized and then tank research and then have at least two 20 width heavy tank 2s with mech out by barb. Doesn't sound like a lot but two tank divisions commanded well is enough to get small encirclements and to slowly bleed the enemy dry. Also, not saying this cuz I think going heavy tanks for this strategy is better, I just think it's cool that Yugoslavia is in a unique position to go for heavy tanks quite well since normally if a country goes for tanks they get mediums (I feel that's the case anyway). Also tanks are fun.
