I Tried Dominating Europe As Poland in HOI4 No Step Back (New Hearts of Iron 4 DLC)

Today I Tried Dominating Europe As Poland in HOI4 No Step Back (New Hearts of Iron 4 DLC). Can we somehow create a mighty Poland while stuck between Russia and Germany? Well with the new tank designer let's see!

You should do a video on the secret Poland monarchy tree, all you have to do to get it to show up is refuse all the people to the thrown twice and you can get Anastasia Romanov in power.

Maybe not a lot of people will tell you, but your camera quality has greatly improved, and so did your moustache. A clean and proper Alex ✨

[@ravenouself4181]

The new HOI4 represents war in a much more realistic manners and strategy is a key, at least from what I have seen. Paradox did a good job. Edit.1: Also, Poland without Cavalry is like Tea without Biscuits.

Even tho Mustache Rambler isn’t the same as Goatee Rambler, Alex is looking sharp as always today. Love having another video of the No Step Back dlc so quickly!

[@Luredreier]

15:01 See where it says "light tank"? If you click on the drop down menu and pick "light flame thrower" or some such instead you'll be able to make flame thrower support units. I recommend doing so and looking at the terrain bonuses that gives, they're pretty extreme.

[@martind5653]

Alex: Gives Soviets half the core country without a fight. Also Alex: "Oh, I am without manpower, seriously?" 😂

[@hedgeearthridge6807]

It would be cool for the next big DLC to focus on Italy and give them a focus tree, while expanding the Infantry Equipment stuff. Since the Italians had what Ian McCollum considers the best bolt-action of the war (Carcano M38) and best SMG of the war (Beretta Model 38A). And they were in a unique situation where when the war started, as they were transitioning between 2 main rifle cartridges: 6.5mm and 7.35mm. It was a logistical nightmare to deal with, since they had to send the right ammo to the right people with the right guns, and so on.

First No Step Back game I started I decided to go Poland, didn't check to see if historical focuses were on but I just assumed it would be by default. Germany immediately went oppose hitler, and the solvets collapsed soon after to Imperial Russia. I'm not even sure what to do anymore, I think we just canceled WWII.

[@4mazIngxXGamEr]

Alex, during the Russian Civil War and parts of WW1 there was a Czechoslovak legion that trekked through Siberia all the way to Vladivostok at which point they were evacuated by Allied forces. Strange history. As the Austo-Hungurians were taking Vladivostok its kind of similar, although the Czechoslovak legion were trying to secede from the Austro-Hungarian Empire that existed at the time.

[@rbjensen530]

There is a secret monarchist tree as well, to get Anastasia Romanov, for a slavic unionist playthrough. All you need for her is to go down the monarchist tree, but refuse the potential rulers like 8 times
