If you wait longer with doing the "The Great Polish SSR" focus, they wil actually give you Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia for free with your Eastern Territories

[@kennethmoses4900]

If you time it right, you can let the Soviets annex Lithuania so the Germans cancel the non-aggression pact, then pop the focus to take back all your Eastern cores - which would include the Baltic states.

[@bbg4566]

For me the soviets would only give Lithuania even though they owned all of the Baltic’s?

[@byochii8197]

So i guess i have to wait till the annex them and then do the "The Great Polish SSR" focus?

Established Titles is a scam. Scotland doesn't actually have any law that permits a land owner to refer to themselves as Lord or Lady. On top of that, they are actually a company based in Hong Kong and do not own any land in Scotland that they are legally eligible to sell.

[@AmiratheAlligator]

Indeed. They are just a rip off of Highland Titles, which is the same thing but without being a scam. Would recommend them. Actually visited one of their land-holdings, and they are a group of lovely and passionate conservationists.

[@roribeedm]

@@AmiratheAlligator The difference with Highland Titles is, they straight up say that you aren't buying a title of Scottish nobility. They explain on their website that you can call yourself a Lord because you are a "Landlord" of a plot of souvenir land. Of course, that still doesn't grant you the right to have yourself addressed as Lord or Lady legally.

[@TheWeedIsland]

@@roribeedm Which is still lame! That would be the whole point of buying a certificate like that.

[@burner2050]

Boomers find such scams entertaining.

[@captain61games49]

@@burner2050 yes my grandfather gave me a land holding for Christmas this year.

[@MediPL]

One slight optimization that I like to do is to try to pick up my Land Doctrines as late as possible - preferably after you have -10% cost guy picked up (and potentially also the -5% Spirit). Free experience is free experience and as long as you don't overflow it, you won't be wasting anything. EDIT: Also I've done this achievement while holding onto Gdansk and it took a while before Germany declared war. The whole thing went very weirdly - the border provinces were held (mostly, lost 2 provinces), while USSR steamrolled Romania and Bulgaria, naval invaded and capitulated Italy all before we could push back Germany out of Prussia.

[@Bitt3rSteel]

this is true

[@KlausValk]

2:50 Poland actually starts out with the two fighter factories on the worse variant of the fighter 1. The better variant is called the PZ24 instead of PZ11(upped stats), and you can switch it on Jan 1 1936 without big hit to production!

[@Luke-je1px]

You mean interwar fighter

[@levi5194]

You can also get a third achievement "Poland can into space" by researching all the rocket techs as Poland

[@evanb4307]

If you're going for the delete-your-army cheese, you don't actually need to do any of the peasant uprising decisions (unless you want to sway some generals). Even starting with just Krakow you can easily walk to all of the victory points with the event troops before the enemy can spawn any divisions

[@lessthanonegaming]

Hey bitt3r, love the content. I believe Sejm is pronounced like same is in english. Again love the videos they've helped me with some hard challenges, like Macedonia.

[@Bitt3rSteel]

Cool, thanks!

[@SpaniardYT]

Glad the Macedonia strat helped you!

[@rubinolas6998]

Basically pronounced like "seym", if you wanna do it with the English orthography. The "j" is pronounced like the "y" in "yes", and the "e" is the "e" in "yes".

Tip: If you wait for soviets to eat lithuania, you can get their lands when asking for your territory back.

[@romulusnuma116]

I feel like this achievement should require you to not to give any land away I feel like that would be more in the spirt of the achievement.

[@samarkand1585]

Yep. It's possible too, if you go Habsburg and engage Germany at the sudetenland

[@qlum]

@@samarkand1585 while true, that route is significantly more difficult judging from when I did it. One thing that can help in that route is using a spy to get the uk to guarantee you.

[@samarkand1585]

@@qlum of course it's harder

[@Bastard2137]

@@qlum Actually I did it this way and UK guaranteed me anyways, so I believe UK does it automatically when Germany justifies on at least Democratic/Non-aligned Poland

[@qlum]

@@Bastard2137 Maybe it depends on timing as well. I fought germany when they claimed sudetenland, for the attempts I made having the spy in the uk made the difference. Could be random otherwise, I don't know.

[@hzcyd101]

One note to friends doing this achievement by non-historical and ally Imperial Germany. You could be very powerful this way and have a much easier war just with USSR, but One: The Germany-Poland Faction will be disbanded if you try to form the Międzymorze, even you are the faction leader in both cases. Two: BE CAREFUL when coring the other countries (Czech, Hungary, Romania or Lithuania). There is a hidden line that gives you core on Zaolzie (I think) and some others when it only says 'Gains core on Poland'. Can't remember which one but I think gobble up Czech is fine but not when coring Lithuania or Romania. Edit: that is to say, you don't want the trouble fighting Germany or possibly Allies afterwards to get those core back. Because it is non-historical things could get very weird if you decided to kick Imperial Germany out of the faction and declare on them. In my run they joined Communist China and got dragged into Chinese civil war.... it's not a war you want to fight for 1 province.

[@Mi-Nasuno]

I find the Romanov path fun for both achievements of No more Partitions and such cheesy run for Crusader Kings III since large territories and the overly chaotic peace deal can be frustrating but also fun

[@something1847]

I’m leaving a comment saying that this was one of the best Hoi4 tutorials in advance as I already know it’s going to be one of the best Hoi4 tutorials.

[@ichcool91]

In the first 4 minutes I learned how to become a lord and how to be a better power bottom. Nice

[@dragon_ninja_2186]

Now this… (looking at Greater Poland) puts a smile on my face!

[@Ally.-]

Finally, something other than a monarchist playthrough. Long live the peasants revolution!

[@BisexualPlagueDoctor]

Hilariously my best games are doing something stupid Dominated the world as democratic Germany and dominated Eurasia as fascist poland

[@thijsverweij9824]

Nice turorial, got the achievement today. Unfortunately the Soviet union took some of my core territories in the peace deal... Meaning I had to conquer the entire Soviet Union and their puppets (Germany, various minor German states and Hungary). Fought untill 1945 and had an army fielded of 2,4M men at some point.

[@Bitt3rSteel]

The Polish Juggernaut cannot be stopped

[@Chewyshoot]

Finally, I can play a nation other than Germany!

[@something1847]

Managed to get this in a non historical game as Germany went monarchist, so did I and that same day I learnt that the human wave strategy works surprisingly well against the soviets.

[@josephcola9662]

Dude, I laughed so much at the sponsorship, because I actually got my mom a title and land on that same website for Mother's Day last year.

[@GlassOfWater001]

I think Poland is one of the funnest countries to play because you can do so many things with it and avoid war and ally anyone

[@lorak2k]

Hey Bitt3rSteel i got idea for video for you. I think this is the hardest way of playing Poland. Rooles are: 1. go sanation Poland 2. dont give Gdańsk to Germans 3. do not join Axis or Comitern 4. dont sign non-aggression pact If you are intrested i can give you information about build order.

[@chasecolin1]

Thank you for making this guide! Got it on my first try!

[@antasil5768]

Ah, this is nice. Going for an achievement but not taking the obvious route! Keep it up!

[@paulvanree9795]

Just had a really easy run with this, managed to get enough war participation to puppet Germany, Italy and Hungary in the peace deal, and afterwards I turned on the Soviets and took them down as well

i had advertisements for the whole 'buy some land in scotland so you can be referred to as a scottish lord' thing somewhere else previously, and i wasn't sure what it was about before. seemed kinda suspicious but being able to sponsor a piece of land to prevent it falling into the hands of developers/ruining the area seems nice, now that they actually bothered to explain it.

Hi! sorry for replying late but How? I always suffer looking for the state how do you make it work by clicking?

[@whitezombie10]

It isn't collegated to the video but thanks to your guides I won the civil in Spain as anarchist Spain in the second last game I did (by 1940 😅🤣) and in the one I just finished as non-aligned Germany I defeated France paradropping on a few cities, lost only 2 divisions, then same with UK and after it I conquered the USA through Canada and at that point I conquered a few minor nations and the soviet union, all by 1941, while just a week ago it would have been impossible for me.

Hey guys. I'm having some trouble with Bulgaria achievements especially with Balkan problem solved. Whenever I start a game with Bulgaria and check this achievement requirements i have ticked that i have all balkan countries states as cores. But when I actually finish the United Balkans focus it changes and game shows that i don't fulfill this requirement. I tried it on 1.10.5 and 1.10.8 and it was bugged on those versions. Did anyone do this achievemnt on Barbarossa? If yes please let me know because I would like to finish bulgarian achievemnts. About this video and other guides, they are great. Keep on your work Bitt3r. Cheers!

[@klo3496]

Bitter....Do play vanilla game or one of the mods. I could not find the autonomous button or go past the Polish SSR focus. Did beat Germany by 1943 and took most of it but did not get the achievement. War ended before I could ask Stalin for the cores. And Russia would not start another war. Since I was a puppet I could not start a war to drag them in. Any ideas for my net try??

[@enderus7868]

I tried to play as my homeland similiar with organizing Peasant's Strike, but with Democracy Path, but looks like I need a help with that (mainly guide), because I have no chances against Soviets after I gave a Gdańsk to Nazis. I know this last is stupid idea, because I'll lose factories and Baltic Sea access and naval yards, but I'll avoid a war on two fronts

[@jonathanmerriman7899]

I don't know if you did this, but if you want to maximize autonomy gain, send an attache to you overlord, it will give you a flat 0.5 daily autonomy gain

Quick question. I had both Germany and USSR in my faction but the achievement didn’t pop. Anyone else have this problem?

[@mvolle1992]

Found out it’s because I didn’t have a polish core when the war ended. Bumme

[@olifhgfyyhff]

i tried doing this but somehow the axis got so powerful and had like 360 divisions and me and the soviet union only had like 200 divisions

[@JonMI6]

Easiest way would be to go non-historical and hope that both Germany AND the USSR go Monarchists but the chances of that happening are very low I think I used the same or similar strategy to get these two achievements

[@sollumi3014]

germany going monarchist is decently common but from my playthroughs usually ussr have a civil war with sssr, aka stalin vs the oposition oh well i guess

I did and now there is two launcher files. The mods states that "there is a problem with the downloaded mod files" and "this mod is missing a descriptor file" Please give me help!

[@hawkerben1158]

This achievement is easy as long as the peace deal isn’t completely cursed, I did a game as commie Poland and easily defeated Germany with a decent bit of war score, in the peace deal I managed to puppet entirety of Germany and Czechs except the allies decided on their turn kashubia needed to exist which of course means an American invasion which is barely possible for Poland

Well, that's an achievement I'll never get. Playing Poland right now, gave Germany its territories back with no intention of reneging on the deal.
