What Happens if Stalin Purges EVERYONE? - HOI4

[@BubblesZest]

So fun fact, there's a hashed out function in the nsb Soviet events folder that would cause only historically purged characters to be purged. But Pdx never finished it, so that in their own words, it would "add more randomness." I can see why they did it, but I guess for this video it's better that it's not ingame. Would've finished the video in like 39 otherwise. But I do wonder if a part of it played a part in this session lol.

It feels like there's now a niche for "HIstorical Purge Only" stalin mods.

[@generalgrievous2580]

99% of stalins quit purging before they got every traitor

I guess paradox didn't anyone wouldn't keep paranoia such a long time. It would interesting to see they add an easter egg like Stalin actually loses his mind etc. like if you don't rehabilitate paranoia until 1945 Btw I heard you can make core Sinkiang if you puppet them as Soviets so I wonder is it actually true and how we can do it? A video about this would be nice if it is possible

@@andreykravchenko6829yeah, it was NKVD anyway. “Stalin’s paranoia” is a stupid phrase for what was mostly the NKVD. Stalin was right to be concerned with the assassinations and factionalism

[@nikoclesceri2267]

The orders on who to purge came from Stalin himself, due mainly to his paranoia. So the name makes perfect sense. Unless you’re a commie, then nothing makes sense through the ten layers of bull shit you see the world through

[@n.r.4579]

Because of your accent, I always have to think on whether you said "Beria Boys" or "Barrier Boys". I know you're saying "Beria Boys" because Lavrentiy Beria ran the NKVD, but, again, your accent; but that, and the NKVD blocking detachments, also referred to as "barrier troops" iirc, established by Order 227, makes me wonder each time... even though I know you're saying "Beria Boys", not "Barrier Boys".

[@RikaRikaItsumika]
