Taureor with non-historical focuses? RANDOMNESS! Also overpowered France.

[@jakubtyr]

Non-historical is not random, it only enables alternative paths with weighted chance, but it still favors historical paths. For truly random playthrough its actually needed tick random path for every country.

[@Taureor]

Ok, I'll look into that

The only issue with that is you don't get achievements if you force it to go random, so it's a less "legit" run. That said, you can turn historical focuses off *and* force certain nations to go historical while still retaining the ability to obtain achievements, something that can be abused to give yourself a safety net if you play as nations in precarious positions such as the USSR or Poland.

[@ertrick3693]

Some relevant history: Pierre Laval, the 1936 starting leader of France in this game and also the starting leader of the fascist party of France if you go down the fascist tree, basically traveled the full length of the political spectrum. Around the time of World War 1 he was a socialist (and was a lawyer who frequently chose to defend strikers, unionists, and general leftists), then he shifted towards a conservative stance into the 1930's, and finally he became a willful and sympathetic collaborator of the Nazis when they occupied France. During his tenure in the government from 1934-1936 he frequently tried to appease Italy and maintain the Stresa Front against German expansionism - his plan to partition Abyssinia with Italy as a means of appeasing Mussolini was revealed to the public and resulted in very harsh public backlash against him, forcing him to resign and paving the way for Leon Blum's Popular Front to take power. He never explicitly took a fascist position before 1940, but it would seem like he had some... sympathies. Such is probably why he can become the leader of fascist France. It is a bit of a shame that neither diplomatic path allows him to stay as the leader, as his political power gain is quite nice.

I was in Poland from the USA to help refugees. It's cool that you guys are welcoming them.

[@LahtariFIN]

Taueror, have you ever considered a truly random game of Hearts of Iron, by trying out the "Random Country Placement" mod? An idea for a video would be to start as Poland, see where in the world said Poland lands up (could be South America, etc) and then try to conquer back all the provinces in Europe, that make up current Polish borders :-) Oh, and restart if needed, until you get a fun/interesting starting position. Also, I recommend saying YES to random starting technologies, and DONE when the mod asks about factions.

[@Rabid_Nationalist]

I can feel that this is going to be a great video!

[@zioming]

It's kind of funny, how, in a way, playing full random makes it more like the real life, in that you have to spy on everyone all the time, to know what they are doing, as opposed to already knowing what's going to happen on historical.

[@Claronomes]

[@malter87]

great video! more random focuses like that, it's fun!

[@dryhad9253]

Regarding the Soviet civil war and resulting (lack of a) peace conference, obviously that outcome was weird and buggy but I believe what is intended is that civil wars always give all territory to one of the claimants no matter who else ends up intervening. Probably what ought to have happened was for Kamenev to annex Stalin after the latter capitulated and for you to remain in a regular war with Kamenev at that point. But the whole mechanic is so awkward it's usually best to avoid civil wars entirely as a third party.

[@signoguns8501]

"Small fundraiser"? 8k raised!! Incredible, Taureor :) Excellent work

[@tyrians]

Gosh, I really wish I knew how people manage themselves with large-scale combat like this x) I enjoy the beginning of games when I only have to worry about fighting one, maybe two places at once, three being a stretch I can manage. But beyond that, when you're fighting entire factions, I lose so fast because I get so confused and flustered by it all. >.

[@ceb4747]

Good for you hosting a refugee donation. Wishing you the best from the US.

[@6th_Army]

The reason why you had the convoy raided penalty isn't because people were buying from you. You had lands that could only be accessed by sea. So for those areas to receive supplies & you to get the resources from them. You were using convoys which were the ones being sunk.

[@Taureor]

OK, but still I think 50% is way too high. I think nukes cap at 20 or 30

[@6th_Army]

@@Taureor I think 50% is a good number. Just not how fast it accumulates. For example, 10 convoys sunk is a very small amount, as such, it should be worth very little. Let's say, 0.010% But currently 10 convoys is worth about 0.1%.

[@ryomario90]

I agree with what another commenter said, that it is more random if you set every nation manually to random compared to just unticking historical AI focuses. Maybe it's just placebo, but I did saw more randomness with the manual random method.

[@darthbader6506]

I also find your voice and verbal performances pleasant, and your videos' normal length to be ideal.

[@sylkabe6780]

Hi ! it's cool seing you on a moer relaxed setting, but I was triggered by the "bug" thing x) It's not a bug, every civil war works that way in Hoi4, if you attack a country in a civil war, you will just help the side you are in peace with !
