How about a Tunis to Carthage run? Should be reasonably painful. Great video btw

[@pyrostrat]

I don't believe that there is a Carthage path in the mods I play, I may try a Tunis to Arabia run though

[@Potato-pq5ez]

Mongolia with the Blood and Iron mod is actually a real blast. I’d recommend giving it a try.

[@pyrostrat]

I put a Mongolia option in the poll at the pinned comment even if it doesn't win I'm sure I'll play Blood and Iron Mongolia at some point

[@GwainSagaFanChannel]

I can hear the suffering from over here poor soul

[@Donlot_]

Here's a challange i like to do in Vic2: start as Bosnia (released by the ottomans) and try to increase your bosnian pops as much as possible. You start as muslim with lower assimilation (in HPM), so your best bet is making unemployed craftsmen move to bosnia from non yugoslav territory and have them assimilate via the craftsman glitch (your first craftsman in the province needs to be bosnian). If you wanna make it extra painful, never form Yugoslavia. Alternatively just do a Muslim Yugoslavia run

[@durianjaykin3576]

[@deeznoots6241]

Starting as Memel Surely the easiest place to expand to is the Nigerian states, good pop but small enough that their armies can’t beat your 6k, as soon as you got those pops you should be able to form a full stack and start going after juicier targets, plus since they would be colonies and not states you keep your good literacy, once you get like 2/3 stacks you can probably snatch a state off of China and at that point you just eat into China for massive amounts of pops while keeping your good literacy from Memel. The obvious first target from that point is to swarm Russia from the east with the Chinese swarm armies plus better tech to win the rest of Lithuania, then simply ship tons of Chinese soldiers over to Lithuania and start the war against Germany. Honestly Lithuania with just Memel doesn’t even seem that difficult thanks to the sea access and starting with a 6k army, there are definitely many less viable countries such as practically any of the inland German states that aren’t Prussia/Bavaria/Austria, without sea access expansion is incredibly difficult in Europe.

[@xarmi6308]

Thank you so much for doing this!

[@meili4790]

Have you thought about doing a run in the GFM mod? If you release slesvig from schleswig-holstein you start danish primary, north german accepted, and you can form scandinavia! (and you keep the north german accepted :3)

[@hubertius4541]

Nice Lithuania "blob". It would be fun if you also check some mods: - Divergences of Darkness HPM + Expanded mod (added many paths, for example Poland can form multi PLC, Zapdadoslavia or Jagiellonium Empire) - Hearts of Acquitania - Thrones of Lorraine There is basically minimum of content on KZbin of these two last mods which I typed, so this could be intresting to see. :)

[@zacharyjones5102]

Zapadoslavia!

[@morfy3313]

Haven't watched for some time, and I'm actually impressed with how you've grown, I enjoyed your suffering quite thoroughly.

[@benisign]

There is definitely a way to win as opm Lithuania.

[@pyrostrat]

There definitely is, but it's tough since you have to do it before Germany forms

[@benisign]

@@pyrostrat True. I was thinking you might be able to ally France if you can get to secondary power through colonizing.

[@pyrostrat]

@@benisign The problem is that you need to become a secondary power to colonize, and in Vanilla there isn't any easy targets like Warri you would normally go for

[@benisign]

@@pyrostrat First off why would you ever play vanilla and second off you could probably beat up parts of Northern Africa even if you were in vanilla if you stacked 2 mill techs thanks to higher literacy.
