Synusia winning in Libya is actually historical. IRL they fought against British French and Italy and controlled all of Libya for the majority of the war. They were so good they got a separate peace with the Entente. But they got annihilated by Mussolini later on.

Here’s an idea that I’m not sure you’ve done yet: WW2 Canada. I’ve recently been playing Canada as a pure support nation and have been having a ton of fun capping Italy and the like. I know this is a bit different but I think it would be interesting

[@Aldrahill]

Yes! Desperately need to do Canada, and all commonwealth nations really! I think August is when I’m planning it?

[@Lolt-jj5kz]

Yes!

You should continue this game as Ataturk an recover all the lost territory. That would be fun.

[@mrhonkhonk6116]

23:17 lmao casualy doing war crime in the caucasus like it was nothing silly ottoman

[@cringeboi66cringus99]

You missed the after peace content. After you capitulated you got the "Kuvay-ı Milliye Problem" event with only one option, "Send the Mustafa Kemal Pasha". Historically, this "event" sparked the "Turkish War of Indepence". I really hoped you would continue and become "Ankara Goverment" but yeah it was a great video! And Ottomans becoming a dominion is kinda historical.

[@Jsay18]

Historical? They butchered Anatolia into 5 parts originally!

Next: Competitive multiplayer hoi4 with historical preset & division

[@Aldrahill]

Oh god what a pain to organise xD

[@kirby1225]

@@Aldrahill you'd most likely need a mod for that. Though I don't see it being all that fun once the novelty wears off.

[@Whiskers4169]

I hate how little choice this game gives for the ottomans. It wants you to loose and it will go out of its way just so that it can fuck you over. I am surprised that gallipoli isn’t a transfer territory to Britain event like those in the Levantine region. Don’t get me wrong , I appreciate the historical accuracy, I was thought these event in school but if hoi4 was just historical accuracy than it wouldn’t be fun now would it. If I play as the ottomans I expect to be able to reform and to get rewarded for my knowledge of its history not be forced to get destroyed

[@ratman7976]

I think it's because the Ottomans were dying and the War was the final blow, but it would be cool to do a way to save the empire like giving up territory to stabilize then reconquer

[@Baconomics1]

this mod feels just a bit too railroaded with the events

[@mrmaniac7117]

@@ratman7976 Mod portrays How Ottomans were during the 1910s very realistically, I'm saying as a Turkish.

[@TheOwneroftheIC]

Way too much railroading in this mod, it would be interesting if you could mitigate the Ottoman's failures more. Not stop them, but make them a little less bad.

[@Aldrahill]

I think if I helped Germany push in France could’ve won? But yeah a ton of railroading

[@TheOwneroftheIC]

@@Aldrahill it wouldn't even be as bad if it weren't for what it does after the mod. Japan and the US can sit the war out but even if they do they get maluses as if they fought in the war.

[@kptlt.phillipthomsen5973]

It is very railroaded, same with regular Kaiserreich

[@nickfejes6246]

Yeah, I always want to play Ottomans in these kinda games, but so many of them are "The Ottomans sucked, here is your -90% debuff, no you cannot get rid of it." Even Vic3 does it, where if you don't fix everything in like 2 years i think, it just sticks an unremovable nation ruining debuff on you.

[@commandercorl1544]

this is exactly why i prefer the original great war mod, far more flexibility, and the post-war modifiers aren't nearly as bad. you can actually...play after 1918. revolutionary, i know.

I love your hoi4 videos alot. I don't have a good enough pc to play this game but I do know it takes hours for making videos and playing this game. Thanks for all the time and effort put into the content 👍 also the fact that u try to use historical units and that makes the game way harder. Much credit for all the content

[@MrCairo283]

Mr. Hill, two questions: One, why don't you toggle off decisions that you don't want to do so you can actually be alerted when one that you do want to do becomes available, and two, do you ever use the medal system for divisions? I don't think I've seen a single HoI4 youtuber even touch it.

[@Aldrahill]

God I always forget that! And honestly I rarely use the medal system - it’s far too much micro for too little benefit. I do do it if I’m roleplaying a bit, like with a Soviet guards division or something

[@artunkansu4461]

Yıldırım Birlikleri or Yıldırım Ordusu was basically Turkish adaptation of German shocktroopers. They didn't win us the war but were reportedly more capable than regular infantry divisions (well Mustafa Kemal Atatürk was a very capable commander, him being the leader of the army group certainly helped). For everyone, don't blame Turkiye for Ottoman problems. House Osman is lurking in Europe still, go take your hate out of them!
