Can I Abuse MEFO Bills in HOI4?

[@Aldrahill]

Want to test MEFO bills yourself? Use my link to buy the DLC! I get a small cut

[@nadimulislamtonoy9604]

Why Poland isn’t break up.

[@maciekGTR]

you should try out cancelling mefo and then clicking price controls it's gamebreaking bc it applies to recovering eco

[@Dedelblute3]

You can actually do Price Controls AFTER achieving Auturky. It's just about as broken even though it comes super late.

[@FourtoslavGenrikhovich]

@@Dedelblute3 yep, but keeping all of them is pointless cause you can achieve 10% consumer goods (having war eco, 20% CG, and having -65% CG on this spirit, you'll still have 10% CG instead of 7%)

[@_greenrunner_]

holy shit

[@maciekGTR]

@@Dedelblute3 True but if you got autarky you already kinda won the game bc you have to kill allies/soviet. This strategy (exploit?) allows you to become kinda unkillable even before the war For anyone interested in ecomaxxing, here's a short summary of why it's good: On test runs with the correct focus order i manage to almost fill all factory slots in Germany until WW2 without any factories from trade which should be impossible, and sit at ~250-300 factories and 100+ rubber, way better results than other paths. I won't write an entire essay on how, you can figure it out yourself lol. The big thing about this is that you still get boosts from totaler krieg path intended for MEFO, but it's applied to recovering eco instead. So you only miss out on 10% output and MF construction speed but you get amazing boosts, synthetics, Goring, lots of spawn-ins, no gutting your eco for few years like left path, and most importantly - no ticking bomb ponzi scheme and no tanking your compli and blowing up to resistance because of stealing gold. It's foolproof and will allow you to field billions of tanks and planes to stomp even the most skilled Soviet player. I know that you also can get the CGF to be literally negative and it bugged on me like that few times but idk how lmao.

[@tinyman1144]

@@maciekGTR It annoys me that they introduced the floor cap for consumer goods.

[@nuxx_1383]

I reached -100% in my Game by rushing War. It almost felt like a downgrade to go "Autarky Achieved"

[@Aldrahill]

Wait… does it actually affect my economy like that?! It gives up to an extra +100% consumer goods factor reduction?? OH MY GOD

[@nuxx_1383]

@ yes it did… with 400 Factories and 120 Civs I think I had like 5-20 Consumer Goods. It was directly after Launch after I realised it goes negative

[@Aldrahill]

Daaaamn nice!

[@poyloos4834]

Well, i don’t think consumer goods can go below ten percent can they? If on totaler krieg I’d think it still wouldn’t be worth keeping :p

[@victormagnusson5176]

you can get negative mefo bills, no reason to restrain from spamming gold reserve decisions

[@victormagnusson5176]

nvm commented to early

[@Aldrahill]

Yup, how did o not see that earlier?!

[@tkraccoon1368]

0:17 ah, yes the classic Napoleon Strategy

[@Another40kFan]

Just for fun, try the Soviet Union, but Stalin’s paranoia never goes away and he is the only leader allowed. No generals, admirals, advisors, nobody but Stalin.

[@pierogi_samurai]

Soviet historical in 1939 scenario? Germany in 1939 Gottedamerung looks strong, it might be interesting play

[@Aldrahill]

Definitely, I need to carry on the 1939 video series :)

[@cruncmcfuncle564]

I think Elite difficulty is a mistake here. It really doesn't add any actual challenge - it just makes the AI cheat. HOI4 doesn't have real difficulty sliders.

[@Aldrahill]

It definitely contributed a little bit of extra challenge at least! Otherwise it would've been too easy!

[@蔡林翰-v2m]

電腦的策略就是狗屎，AI也只會造出相同的垃圾部隊，也因為前線系統有夠糟糕的 儘管一再改進，但考慮到SP情節，太難也不是很好的事情

[@ultrabonie]

2:03 Ah yes, my favorite south American nations. The "Ginuas"

[@Aldrahill]

:( forgive me, I cannot read

[@samgilbert5973]

2:55 I pretty sure why you couldn't send air volunteers because they didn't have enough air ports. The number of air volunteers is dependent on the amount air ports

[@Aldrahill]

OHHH that makes sense!!

[@蔡林翰-v2m]

不不，志願空軍在於空軍總數量 不是機場

If Aldra had switched to Göring as Führer, the meme would have been complete.

[@qu3stionm4rk]

"Russian exiles in Serbia" Man im fking dead, this game, i swear

[@agsuko2041]

Funnily enough it's one of the more historical additions that came from the new DLC; a lot of white exiles fled to Yugoslavia and once Germany occupied Serbia the Russians created an anti-partisan security force to fight for Germany and the local Serbian government

[@Somejetpack34]

I assume the OP never bothered checking whether or not it was actually true and instead decided to hop on the bandwagon for hating on paradox

[@Aldrahill]

Yes I looked it up afterwards! Super cool

[@qu3stionm4rk]

​@@Somejetpack34 "hating on paradox"? Bro, i found it hilarious because a lot of russians fled to Serbia after the war in Ukraine started, its not about hating pdx (even though i hate them lol)

[@Somejetpack34]

@qu3stionm4rk I will apologize for the misunderstanding but I do hope you understand that I had no idea about the modern day thing.

[@rogueemerald]

The youtube gods must not want me to see your vids. I only ever seem to get 1 out of 3 videos notified for me.

[@Aldrahill]

Oh damn that’s weird! I’m guessing you have notifications enabled? Strange! Glad you’re here now though :)

[@glauberglousger956]

Did you buff the Comintern as well as the Soviet Union? (And allies and their faction) Those buffs stack

[@Aldrahill]

Oh… oh dear god

[@glauberglousger956]

@Aldrahill Not to mention mods such as All Nations Boostable ANB, and Road to 56, which have their own sliders that stack

[@postaldudeWtake]

Play with expert ai insane or impossible difficulty so it can be harder also you can give ai straight factory output and other buffs in options.

[@蔡林翰-v2m]

梅福卷的加成我覺得真的不重要，尤其是後期的已經來的太晚(戰爭已經贏了，還需要什麼？) 直接放棄，左邊的路線依舊可以獲得不少加成，而且不需要到處找黃金

[@MissAntador]

Okay, hear me out... That helicopter is a VTOL aircraft. Front propeller to go forwards, top propeller to go upwards. My genius sometimes surprises me.

[@krcsirke]

We need an Adolfo run in Austria.

[@internetstrangerstrangerofweb]

Why does the new portrait of Adolfo look like the one in the animated Lupan the third movie

[@RottenFlesh-we6nu]

Why can you seize gold reserves of countries that historically evacuated them to the uk in ww2?

[@Aldrahill]

I guess because they didn’t remove them yet? Would be cool if countries could do it as a decision or focus!

I like the "normal" economy path a bit better since it's less of a time bomb. Mefo bills are way more risky but also way more fun in a way.

[@Aldrahill]

Yeah honestly the left path is just flat out better :P

[@darius-m3p]

I hate how you didnt form all the reichskommissariats

[@Aldrahill]

Forgive me :( I was trying to maximize the MEFO pain !

[@abefetoieridk6227]

10:50 ive seen peopole butchering the way to say occitan but okitan is a way to say it lets just say (its spelled ocxitan)

[@rogofos]

"what if Germany was a Horde?"

[@Shuinon]

Immediately after it came out there was a bug that would restore a countries gold reserves if any province of theirs was freed, so allied naval invasions would give me frances gold a second tjme

[@Aldrahill]

Ahhh that makes sense! That’s why I got it extra times in my first Germany video!

[@dhruvvadlamudi631]

Why push with infantry with no manpower, isn't tank micro just more fun and efficient

[@MsCooked]

Navy only challenge when?

[@vlr4631]

What was the difference tho to normal? Obviously you can get more reductions by seizing the gold reserves but as soon as you achieve autarky it doesn't matter anyway does it?

[@Aldrahill]

Yes once you honestly it’s no big deal, but it’s interesting to abuse it in the meanwhile !

[@Eisenrauch]

How can you cat the fragmentation for every country

[@TheStonewall117]

Do you me how? It’s in the game options before you start. Just have to scroll down a little.

[@Peter33338]

Video suggestion, form the european uniond with max cores, as a nation that never changed ideology

Pretty easy with France

Diplomatic germany and hold world tension below 25% by liberating italy, portugal, and russia

try playing as soviets but balkanized

[@blossomhaven2]

Can you play bulgaria ww1 and reform the Byzantine empire and if possible historic division

[@justindagoose377]

Bulgaria can't reform Byzantium only Greece can I believe. (I might be stupid tho let me know and show proof)

[@Aldrahill]

It can in the WW1 mod!

[@blossomhaven2]

​@@justindagoose377 In ww1 mod

what is a "MEFO bill?" no explaination. 🤔

It’s the Ponzi scheme set up by Schact to hide rearmament in Germany :)
