When Kaiserreich Returns In HOI4 No Step Back...

[@TommyKay]

Send us your disaster saves at: [e-mail] Make sure to only send saves that are close to defeat but are still winnable, they need to be fun and good content for the video. Naturally bad save files won't be featured. All of your save files will be checked thoroughly before Tommy plays them. The saves have to be the latest version of the game. It can be any popular mods such as Kaiserreich or Road to 56, just please put what mod it is in the email and make sure it's the No Step Back version of the mod, otherwise they might get corrupted. You can find your save files in: Documents - Paradox Interactive - Hearts of Iron IV - Saves Games

[@SealChonker]

do saves need to have all dlcs?

[@jasonhaveten5608]

Leave some views for Alex, damn!

[@super_steven]

I could send in not necessarily a disaster save, but a save I have right before Barbarossa that I'm trying to get No Step Back achievement with. I'm pretty sure everything is in order but it's heavily micro-intensive. I know it's not really a disaster save but if you're interested in an achievement save I could send it

[@troyscribner4342]

Appreciate all the work you do markoni, alot of us just dont have the time to stay for long in streams and you find a way to make them into shorter videos but keep most of the content. I hope your doing well!

As tommy said in this video focus trees that give the player hability to do stuff instead of waiting are the best ones, for example the new NSB soviet tree is an AMAZING example of this, when you play historial or ahistorical soviets you are never doing nothing and justwaiting as you need to survive the stalin purges and control them with decisions

[@lovelylavenderr]

I especially love the focuses that give you debuffs as you're doing them but once they finish they give you the buff that's such cool attention to detail and I'm glad Paradox is starting to do stuff like that.

[@aleksandarmanojlovic4988]

@@lovelylavenderr i really like that focus too

[@homefront1999]

The purges are great in idea. But I found them to be tedious. Especially in non-historical. Having to take most of the country and build up support was fun the first couple of times. But got tedious soon after.

As someone who has grown up and still live right outside Pittsburgh, it’s so weird watching the front line of a war running pretty much through my house. I’m sure European viewers see that shit all the time when playing/watching but we haven’t seen anything like that beside Bushy Run in 1763 which was playground stuff compared to WW2.

[@bltsevdallarfanclub641]

6:52 the thing Tommy wants is literally in the game as resource decisions. Just research excavation and wait 90 days with 3 civs and you have extra resources. Tommy thinks it doesn't exist because he has seen them so much that he doesn't care or realize they are the same or he wants it to be named differently so it seems special(but its not the thing is no matter the context it's the same +4 steel).

[@LaFonteCheVi]

"Just research excavation amd wait 90 days with 3 civs and you have extra resources. " This isn't the same thing at all. Also that is a far, far, far more limited decision. What Tommy is taking about is things like the Bulgaria decisions in vanilla, or pretty much every Kaiserreich nation, where you have a ton of decisions that affect your politics, stability, laws, industry, resources, etc. Where instead of sitting around doing nothing for half the game, you actually have to balance and manage what is going on in your country constantly. Saying a couple crappy excavation decisions is the same as what Tommy is talking about is like saying a kiddy pool is the same as an Olympic pool just because they both have water.
