HOI4: WORLD WAR ONE! | Heart of Iron 4: The Great War Mod Gameplay [WW1 AI Only Alternative History]
Ойындар
We revisit the Great War Mod in Hearts of Iron 4. With popular mods like Kaiserreich, I figured we should just try out our own alternative history for WWI. Will the Central Powers finally succeed? Or will history repeat itself with Wonder Woman saving the day for the Entente again?

The whole event where the Ottomans got crushed by the balkan states then Bulgaria got crushed by the rest of the balkan states and the Ottomans was actually historically accurate. That is exactly what happened

Before WW1, Italy was part of the central powers. However, Italy and Austria-Hungary had a "hiccup" due to ethnically Italian lands, so when WW1 broke out, Italy stayed neutral. Despite this, Italy was planning to join the central powers, but the entente offered Italy the land they wanted from Austria-Hungary if Italy joined the entente and they won the war, which made Italy switch sides.

Historically, Italy was in the central powers, but they said it was a defensive alliance only, and since they wanted land from Austria-Hungary, they betrayed the central powers, opening a new front, which in my opinion made the central powers lose the war.

No it wasn't betrayal, first it was a defensive alliance and it was Austria that decided war, so making it an offensive war. Second : there was an agreement that if Austria or Italy took lands in the Balkans, it had to to give land in competition to the other nation, so when Austria refused to give land to Italy it was Austria that broke the alliance terms, not Italy

I grew up in England with football hooligans; booze abuse, followed by picking on youths with the wrong neck scarves. In Bristol it was 'City' fans vs 'Rovers' in the 70's. My best friend Kevin almost died after his throat was cut after being thrown through a plate glass window for wearing the 'wrong scarf'. I prefer non violent potheads!

10:50 definitely, Italy was big enough to put a lot of pressure in the Alps with France, and they would have probably saved the Ottomans from the British and the Serbo-Greeks. The Central Powers would over-all have a lot more men to put on the fronts.
