Habsburg Poland in Hearts of Iron 4

So today, we are playing Poland

[@Taureor]

As always

[@mrkitty1997]

The best part of this video is Estonia somehow holding the Soviets off for 3 years

[@esmeecampbell7396]

"Well that's very silly of you Adolf"

[@TheArklyte]

Insert russian "jokes" about Estonians being slow and then watch soviets navigate a third of Estonia is several years.

So glad we’re playing Poland today

Hi Taureor, Unfortuantely, from what I've read on the wiki, Germany only gets the Oster Conspiracy, the event that leads to either the Moustache Man's disposal or a German Civil War, IF the French and British were guaranteeing the Czechoslovaks and went to war against Germany, and that the French and British are democracies. This mostly happens in playthroughs where you're going for Big Little Entente, and could be useful during said achievement run.

[@MapletreePaper]

Challenge idea: BUILDINGS ONLY 1) Select Japan 2) Release and play as the Mariana Federation while retaining Japan's core states 3) Realize you have 42 population and zero manpower 4) Go fascist or stay democratic (you cannot go communist) 5) Use all means at your disposal to gain warscore including buildings and lend lease 6) Annex states with sufficient manpower to build an army 8) ??? 9) Profit?

[@carterbagvitch5964]

Plsss this sounds god awful. Plss. Maybe only warscore through passive means like lend lease, or stuff besides landing troops

[@MapletreePaper]

​@@carterbagvitch5964 What you said more or less aligns with my intentions. Basically get warscore with this tiny country without training troops. I said buildings because I didn't know you got warscore from lend lease. I thought building anti-air and rocket sites were the only way to win. Still, I'll stand by the fact that "Buildings Only" is a lot better name than "Passive Warscore Collection Challenge", so I'm keeping it.

[@surjackeroff]

@@MapletreePaperThere used to be an exploit (patched now i believe) where you could gain massive amounts of war participation by lend leasing fuel to allies. I saw someone do it as Venezuela in the allies.

[@Lukey-D]

I feel that it will be easy if you go through the communist route, due to the portrait of Karl Marx for 500 manpower weekly.

[@MapletreePaper]

@@Lukey-D Again, didn't know that was a thing. I've changed the rules to forbid going communist.

[@goji3908]

Infantry and Artillery now count as separate groups, but Paradox forgot to change the 7/2 divisions that are given to you in the focus tree

[@alexisquentrec3082]

I always have great pleasure hearing the stories and other bits of Polish culture you share during your videos, especially in the videos you published on Poland's National Holiday. So if you want to tell some more while playing as Poland (because, well, we are playing Poland), I think you should just go ahead. You will at least have the attention of one viewer (which is not very efficient for you but well, it is something).

[@Maxuras]

Good game. Although I found it notable, that when you raced France for who capitulates their Axis member faster, you were very lucky. Because usually at this point France would have gotten a nice Italian Puppet with this "Regno del Sud" event (which would have also spoiled Polish Italy in the peace deal) but because Mussolini had failed in Ethiopia this hard, they have never unlocked their balance of power mechanic.

[@Elobomg]

30:28 now artillery and infatry are separated groups and while template exist with both in the same battlegroup it will fix it if you chsnge any unit in it apart from support company

[@krasnamerah1926]

Reminder that this branch originally isn't in the DLC, but we managed to make the devs submit this one, and it ended up as the 2nd strongest Polish path (just behind Anti-Stalinist Communist Poland)

[@piment0_420]

anti-stalinist is the strongest one?

[@krasnamerah1926]

@@piment0_420, yes. Discounting the secret path ofc

[@echo_9835]

Here's an idea for a challenge. As Germany, make sure Steiner's counter attack goes through by leveling him to max level. Try and raise his stats as high as you can by switching command ideas out, and try to get as many terrain traits as possible on him. You can do this in any wag you please. Start the civil war, flip communist, farm Luxumbourg for xp, whatever it takes to level up the general to thier maximum stats.

[@WaterYoshi]

Oh that story you told about your grandfather in ww2 was so cool man. Polska Strong!

[@Kapral-ld8zl]

I recently played Monarchist Poland via Lituanian guy and it gives so much cores also you can fight Soviets early

Poland Gameplay from Taureor, me gives like. Taureor destroys Germany, for me as a German, I like. Go Poland!

[@Jeremie-cc2qq]

Please tell the story’s of your grandfather again

[@lardism3211]

not sure if you have done it before, but you should make a division template and supplies guide

[@512TheWolf512]

Historically, Italians were afraid of the germans, and their alliance was way more one of convenience than anything else. So inviting it to a military alliance as a strong European block with Poland wouldn't be out of the question

[@stigolsson7535]

I do like I do like Poland. this video is so great about Poland

[@antonkrause2420]

Most painful challenge for a major: democratic USA world conquest - I highly recommend non-historical. You need the Germans to win and or the British to flip ideologies. Ideally Mexico tries to unite Central America and the Caribbean. You just need the non-democratic countries to eat the democratic ones (don’t remove your guarantees). Feed everything you don’t want to your Philippine puppet so you can annex later. Not doing that was the mistake that ruined my last run. Good luck, have fun playing until 1950 because you have to wait for Germany to win and now have to fight a one front war against Germany with 500 divs.

[@craniusdominus8234]

I don't remember if you can interrupt Germany's Demand Sudetenland focus if you annex Czechoslovakia just before they finish their focus. And/or by annexing it just before "accepting" their ultimatum event.

[@troykanotz626]

As soon as I saw this video I laughed and said “oh my god Germany’s fucked!”

[@Mateo43561]

Only poles can feel that feeling when you beat up both germans and soviets in 1939

[@GOGPlays]

You won WW2 with WW1 tactics lol. Mostly riflemen and GBP.

[@Tommy-qc4rj]

Please do a video on stories of your great grandfather in the war. I would very much like to hear how things fared for you Poles on an individual sense, even if it is anecdotal.

30:15 the switching is not a glitch, you can only put the same units in 1 column, can't put 1 inf + 2 art in the same column anymore.
