Hello Taureor! Some challenges to you: Challenge 1 - play as one of the small neighbours of Austria. Cannot take land for yourself in peace conferences. Must make Austria, and not you, conquer the world. 2-Germans weak point is sea. flood all world, except provinces with mountais. Conquer the world as fascist Germany.

I was rewatching this and the first challenge is so interesting. I don't think anyone has ever built an empire for their ally before on hoi4

[@Jansay34]

Actually at first while I was watching your previous video with Spain I was skeptical about the unprapared gameplays but having watched this one I can safely say that I enjoy them. It feels more natural, it's like sitting next to you and watching while you play on a normal day. That being said, I wouldn't wanna be deprived of your genious plans and tested-out tactics that you seem so apt to do, so I'd recommend you not to abandon completely your prepared gameplays as well.

Taureor: goes Non-aligned Me: happy noises

6:50 no you cant, they still have civil war units, you gotta declare on the winner right after it ends when they have nothing.
