HoI4 By Blood Alone Ethiopia Beats up Italy
Ойындар
By Blood Alone is here! This video is sponsoerd by Paradox. Get the game here: play.heartsofiron.com/Taureor The new DLC is great and If you do, it lets them know it's a good idea to sponsor me!
Ethiopia is pretty difficult, so here's a guide. Should work every time, 90% of the time. No need for external support, we will beat Italy on our own.
This is a guide, but it is played in Ironman so that you know it works.
Would you like to see more Ethiopia? Which path?

Hey Paradox, you better give this man a shitload of money, because he's the reason I fell in love with HOI4 differently
I was always temted to play Ethiopia. Now it looks super fun to play. Nice done.
Worked like a treat, thanks!
Brilliant guide. Was bashing my head against a wall until I caved, first try I pushed Italy back and made them sign for peace. Sweet sweet achievement.
That was an amazing guide, nice job 😍 it worked for me - I would like to see how you make uprisings
Worked. Great thanks!
*Aksum sounds like a lot of fun.* Alternatively, anything that makes "Ethiopia" a large name on the map works for me!
Great video! I would be very interested to see you complete one of the new achievements with ethiopia. Crusader Kings IV I think it's called... It's the one where you need to take jerusalem. I would really enjoy it!
I don’t wanna spoil the DLC for me, but it is a Taureor video and long awaited one at that

Love the new expacs, but I will always been bad for the countries that got focus trees early on and now have tiny ones
nice info! 💪
taureor should do audiobooks. best voice for it.
I would love to see an Aussa playthrough. As I find it quite funny that such a tiny country is such a beast.
I would love to see a continuation for this video. Becoming a God path could be fun!
I need a "part 2" for this guide! Proszę!
Glad the media embargo has been lifted, just when the ingame embargo has been added.
23:31 they don't give army exp anymore. only chief of army gives exp
Holding the hills slightly further east of your southern line forces the Italians to stand in desert and gives you a good angle to attack the center tile from, which you can then use to encircle the units on the northern tile and inflict massive casualties and chaos on the Italians in Somalia. Also it will provoke them to attack slightly more often, which is a boon for the general you picked since he gets the Scavenger trait from a Focus. Add that to the Logistics Spirit you can get for free and Scavenging Tactics and unless you're very unlucky in real life you'll be gaining guns every time the Italians fail to take your tiles. I also don't bother training new units with my strategy because you have enough to pull it off by bringing the one commander out of retirement. I instead stall to get the extra research stuff while keeping things primed for ~1938 when I start doing the Focuses that improve the Mekwanint's control, because in the early stage of the war you want the Mesafint's defense bonus more. Edit: I also stack debuffs to enemy air with leaders like Empress Asfaw because, y'know. You have no possible way to not fight under red air.
Such a treat, as always. I'd love to see you continue this playthrough (go for Jamaica, of course!) I couple of things I noticed as I tried my hand at this. imru Haile Selassie, the original Infantry Specialist, levels up really fast and is really godlike. Also, by the late 1936, as Italians run out of steam, you can put pretty much any General in the Northern mountains to level up. Put your Hill Fighter there and he gets Adaptable in no time. Wouldn't it be better to use him as a Field Marshal? He'a Adaptable and a Logistic Wizard, what's not to love?

all their stuff,,, love it :-P
1:23 oh no, OH NO, MY ASMR HOI 4 MAN IS GONNA SAY A- oh... Phew. Phewwww
Can't wait to see more By Blood Alone content from you! Btw, personally I feel like in the north with Macalle it's better to hold the riverline, instead of opening up to many directions of attack. For harder paths like the anarchy path it's really hard to hold due to the lack of good buffs
Good video👍
yeahh continue the save or start another, doesn't matter i just wanna see you try the "Towards African Unity". it sounds very cool!
Sultinate of Aussa world conquest. They seem to be in a "strong" position there, heh.
Just finished my Aussa run. 2 hours of digging in and repelling italian charges until ww2. Fun though
your voice man literally incredible
Watching Ethiopia humiliate Italy again is absolutely satisfying Maybe the third time, it will be Ethiopia's turn? Ethiopian Two Sicilies!
From my Ethiopia play through, if you hold Macalle, then Italy won’t annex Aussa. This allows you to hold the line with only 2 tiles on the front.
Thanks!
That was a close one, almost lost Aussa on 14 of July in 1936 because evryone decided to walk away from it out of teh blue
Awesome
I used this guide, was all good, but I didn't watch end of this guide and stayed in war with italy too long, had to wait until axis was defeated. I am not great player. Will try again tho!
please consider doing more Ethiopia runs!
Hearing your son say "dado" (i guess that is dad in polish?) really made me feel old.
I promise you next DLC I'll wait your video to by from your link. For now I can only give a view and a like 👍
i love it !!
True heir of solomon or anti colonization would be proper... the Rasta path is too meme worthy.. great informative video!!!
Got to finish teh war early, since Italy sudently left big chunk of land and let me walk to their port in the north
22:03 You're at 40% since the regrouping specialist you added moved the balance of power 10% to the left.
Hopefully this will help me when the DLC comes out!
For some reason aussia had transferred all its troops to Italy

Do 4 future videos where u do all those 4 different endings
I love this guys speaking voice. I want him to read me a bedtime story.
nice video
Next challenge should be Luxembourg world conquest
Would love to see you form the Empire of Zion.
Watch out when taking the north army to the south cause Italy can naval invade you again and rush to your capital (personal experience here when I was just about finishing the south side :()
Maybe do one of the other new paths first before returning for a longer form Ethiopia.
You should do England planes only with the new plane designer.
omg sponsor yeay 😊😊😊😊
Does the escalation mechanic and war level seem similar to the Russian invasion of Ukraine?
Nice 👍
Thank you I tried and failed within the first 2 months on my first couple attempts
Lucky you have early access.
23:30 military high command doesnt give experience anymore.
Thanks for the guide but at around early and mid 1937 (twice) I made a third army at the northern border and the Italian divisions retreated to Eritrea, is that normal AI behavior?
I got the italians out and the somali sultanate popped up and instantly joined the allies. After 6 tries it was just frustrating:D
Take all of Africa. Would be cool to see that.
Wait wait wait, "select random country" button on the start screen?
Heir of Solomon. Use his ring to make demons destroy Italy
Hmm yes lore of hoi4 Ethiopia run in by blood alone momentum 100
Taureor you ARE a GOD, please continue as one
Hiring some advisors move the balance of power left or right
for some reason italy keeps joining the allies when im Ethiopia, anybody know how to stop this?
Okay so I am following your strategy and appreciate the help but idk if Paradox changed something but after I fell back to your video location I lost a civilian factory I used to trade for steel which I need for weapon production.
