Taureor, I have an Idea of a challenge to you. It's the Decolonization challenge. You play as UK, go through the Decolonization path and liberate all the colonies in the world. That means you have to invade and fragment all the other colonial empires, including Japan and US. Also remember to fragment the Raj before decolonizing it. You also cannot have puppets neither annexed territories, but you can change ideologies if needed. You can still keep Wales and Scotland, because they are your cores. Any ideology is allowed, but I think communism is the best one for this challenge, because you get a focus that allows you to demand Decolonization for some countries, and it's s good opportunity to get "crush the dream". The best part about this challenge is that will prevent you from snowballing, so it will be hard even during endgame. Good luck if you want to do this, and I like your videos much.

[@420cactusgaming7]

On behalf of all the Finns here, thanks for getting us guaranteed. Also, could you do a game where you do conquer as much as you want but you're a kind leader, whenever a evil country attacks another, go and defend them and use all things mechanised to have the least amount of casualties possible. In other words, no pure infantry but use tanks, cars, artillery, air force and naval prowess along with an abundance of bunkers. You can choose the country but I will say that it's likely more fun if you choose a country that isn't Germany, UK, France, USA or USSR. Poland and Finland could be fun choices I guess and it totally has nothing to do with you being Polish or me being Finnish...

[@clodcouger5021]

Challenge: Play as Poland, conquer the whole of Europe, but the only victory points you can capture, have to be the current capital of the countries you're invading. Eg. You attack France, only take Paris, then they move their capital to Bordeaux, you only take Bordeaux and so on. (You can pretty much play as any country and conquer anything, only with this strategy, I just choose Poland, cuz I'm half Polish)

You don't have to put the divisions in a different army when they should stay somewhere. You can detach them from the orders; Army => Battle Plans => Detach (2. or 3. from the right)

I prefer not to do this, because I will sometimes forget it and then re-add them to an order acdidentally
