Austria Hungary? Why? What did Gary do? Well there we go, I promised myself that I would have this upload schedule for the first week after dlc released. Can I recommend doing this? No, it's just not the best way to make videos. Less time to think through ideas, less time to put them together and so on. But it's good that I did it, it's something that I have thought about for a very long time.

Good on you for keeping it! Its always great to see a video from you :) On topic- I very much like the dlc - it "seems" that this one is a bit better reviewed as well compared to prior lol

The point you raise about how you wish it were more like the Polish Habsburg path is interesting because the new Austrian path to reform the austro-hungarian empire is actually like the Polish path. You need to build up monarchist support by decision before you can get them as a puppet which is more engaging and takes some player engagement. I don't know why they chose to handle Hungary any different though

For variety. Because two countries doing it the exact same way both times would be kind of boring :/.
@zarbi64Ай бұрын
Because the focus tree are made by different people I think, hence the reason why they are so different from one another in their mechanics (like sometimes you need to click on the map to influence countries, sometimes it’s in the decision tabs, sometimes it’s just rng)

The little entente existed exactly to prevent the return of Habsburg monachy. It's so stupid how easy this still is. Creating Austria-Hungary shouldn't be possible without a hard war.

Well it would be too hard because you literally have to fight Czechoslovakia, Romania, Yugoslavia, Greece and Turkey and you only have like 10 divisions or less. I think this makes sense and it’s a game anyway so yeah

I think the Austrian path for reforming Austria-Hungary is actually stronger because you can get a whole bunch of countries into the Habsburg alliance for free and once you get to the bottom of the shared focus tree you can just annex them. Plus Austria gets cores on all German states by decision through their focus tree

You missed the most important focus, the joint focuses, that's where you get the most cheated bonuses, and you don't have to investigate the focuses if not the puppets will do it for you.

A few days ago I tried to play with my friend but we didn't have the latest DLC's I went German Empire and couldn't do "tend to the future of Germany" so I had an unavoidable silesian uprising His "protect czechoslovakia" focus was automatically bypassed once he cored austria by the "restoration of austria-hungary" focus The DLC seems good but it made playing without it on what was already there *awful*

Austria hungary from austrian focus tree is the thing you want you can choose to fully annex countries or just sub them and you need to do few political decisions to make the demand. (1 decision is 50pp then it shows how likely will they accept)

Great video detailing a great strategy! I'm impressed you're able to win a war against Yugoslavia and Romania already in 1937. I've been trying to perfect a A-H strategy ever since the Death and Dishonour DLC came out back in 2017 or so, and I usually capitulate Romania by early 1939. Your strategy is much faster. I notice you go all the way to extensive conscription when you declare on yugoslavia and it left me wondering. Is it necessary to win the war, or could you go for war economy instead? Personally, I've used the PP to go up to war economy as fast as possible (because I use NAP to avoid war with Germany and thus can't use that opportunity to go for war economy). With the shared focus tree, you get so many manpower bonuses so I haven't prioritized going to extensive conscription.
