I love these videos! I see you've been speedrunning editing a new one. ;)

I got this game a few weeks ago and I'm just starting to feel like I'm getting the hang of it. Then I see your videos just breaking the game wide open and I think "I've barely scratched the surface"

I would love to see this expanded into an all majors. Thank you for your content!

>Jokes about US electoral gridlock effecting foreign policy >Aid bill passes three days later out of nowhere Did Mike Johnson watch this video? That's the only logical conclusion I can draw from this.

Love the intro

Excellent video m3an, I love your content! I recently found a new version of order 66 from sejozwak and just wanted to make sure you knew about it. By deleting and rerequesting units from your puppets while declaring war on your target nation (Directly or Indirectly) you are still able to order 66 nations. I’m sure you can find a way to use it in a speed run

Paradox: We're going to fix these issues. M3an: All of the allies and South America capitulates in 1936. That was a lot of angry letters the US sent you.

lovely analysis

You can get an extra immediate 2.2% world tension by disbanding your faction and forming one with Italy. You can boot them by April 28th and then reform with Yugoslavia. However that costs an early 10 political power so ... Alternatively, you could send volunteers to ethiopia or Italy to get a slight boost.

@m3an

Ай бұрын

I tried the faction method extensively. It was still fresh on my mind from the Italy world conquest. But I couldn't get it to work. The 10pp are the problem. It delays justifying on the USA and if you do it after, you can't kick Italy in time. Volunteers though...

Not clicking events in paradox games is so broken lmao, you can do a bunch of exploits in eu4 for example just by not clicking events, and that game is even more generous with the amount of time you have

You used to be able to get two focus paths unlocked in the spanish civil war. You could be Monarchist & Fascist at the same time, or Anarchist and Republican. Kinda neat~

I really would like an all majors campaign from this 😊

Question - When you said you have 15 to 21 days before you have to select an event option (1-7 excluding the event cooldown period), did you find this in the game files? I say this because I'm looking through the game files now, and this is the code that I've found: common/on_actions/10_toa_on_actions.txt, line 737 is what triggers the event for the USA about an American country coming under attack, and fires 24 hours after your declaration of war. events/TOA_generic_events.txt, line 2638 contains south_american_events.50, which contains "is_triggered_only = yes" as opposed to "trigger = { }", so it's firing for the USA is not random. From here, we will assume that the AI will always pick the option to send you the ultimatum, which fires event south_american_events.51 for the aggressor country (The AI will always pick event options immediately upon them getting the event). At lines 2677 & 2678, the event is fired with "days = 5, random_days = 3". This adds five days (120 hours) onto the initial 24 delay the USA, plus a random number of hours (0-72 inclusive) from when you declare war to when you receive the event from the USA telling you to back down (south_american_events.51). Doing the maths, you have the 24h initial delay for the USA to get the event, 120 hours + 0-72 random hours for you to get the event demanding you leave, and 336 hours for the event to time out, giving you anywhere from 480-552 hours (20-23 days) to end the war.

Wow, very impressive. I tried looking through the code, but I couldn't quite make sense of it and have had some bad experience with timers nor working as expected, too, so I pretty much just went by experience. Should've known better, since that's always a trap. Thank you for digging into the details!

Can you send volunteers to Italy to put world tension up? Might only be a percent of two but still something for little effort

Yo, I don't know if you know about that, but via a bug in the Spanish Focus tree, Republican Spain can core the entire world, even colony states. Thought, if there is one person who figures out how to speed run it, that would be you. Would be then a speed run to not only conquer but also coring the entire world

Ай бұрын

I did a speedrun to form the HRE, but it's on an older version and it involves exploits that have since been patched. You can nevertheless use this exact opening and transition into the civil war right after. It takes slightly longer, since you of course cannot take the Rhineland focus. And make sure to avoid a delay between the end of the war with the Allies and the start of the civil war to avoid the Hindenburg event from triggering.

Justification time against Switzerland is indeed an issue. Even with max modifiers and the backroom stabber, it takes 220 days or something.
