The issue with HOI4 is just the massive air/sea regions there’s no depth to it. The HOI3 operational area system is so much more expansive and being able to bomb city or a country and select fewer specific regions makes sense. The same issue applies to sea combat and the complete lack of strategic depth, you either have more and better ships or you don’t. Guess paradox AI would be too dumb to play the naval game.

Shhhh it's okay no more shit focus tree
" La battaghiglia di grano" xD as an italian i confirm you speak italian better than many french guys
Did anyone else notice Yugoslavia using migs-15's?
the problem is how to balance the old focus tree countries with the new one. The focus of Italian is so huge that nerf them bcz we need to spend more time to try to get rid of the debuff. Imagine German need 4 70 days Focus to get 12 Civilian Factory
I have been waiting for a glorious 30+ minutes video for ages 🥹 very excited to watch this tonight! 😄😄
Seeing that new Italian focus tree brought me joy I haven't felt in the 5 years I've known about HOI4.
Can't wait to play it myself. Great video that made me can't wait even more!

Love your content. Keep on trucking, my friend!
Beautiful content Alex the Rambler
01:59 - ...did they miss an "s" in "The 'Soldier King' remind the italians"...because I feel like they did, and it's supposed to say "...reminds the italians..." 07:33 - I feel like the description should say "...forever strive..." instead of "...forever strife..." Yes, some of us do read the descriptions! Well, some of them anyway. And no, English isn't my first language so I could be wrong, but still feel like those aren't quite right...
Keep up the good work alexx... Love your vidss...
I'd love to see Alex restore the Papacy and go down that focus tree. I think that could be a fun video.
Great Video Alex! You are always keeping me entertained. Could you try Monarchist Italy with Victor Emanuel III in ABSOLUTE power.
I can't wait for this DLC to be released. It looks very fun.
Yay Alex! Sponsor Alex more Paradox!
Cant wait for Meloni to try new focus tree irl
That aircraft designer is guaranteed to consume a lot of my time and can't quit to play with it.
20:16 Never knew Luxembourg was that powerful lmao
Nice to see you :) You look good - glad to see that :)
An Italy rework! It's beautiful!!! It's also chaotic and complicated as hell, but it's beautiful!!! It's all I ever wanted!!!
Can’t wait for this to come out
Good video keep op the good work👍❤
When I first saw the "Augustus Mussloni" profile after forming the roman empire the first time I cracked up hard. :D
It is weird seeing Italy with such a big focus tree
i hope its going to go good
1:28 bye bye rambler
Im so hyped for this expansion ngl pdx nailed it
Alex’s pronounciation of bataglia del grano was pretty good one note is that the g in there is not pronounced
Finally new focus tree for Italy!
It's gonna go well.
24:51 dude, Hungary just wants sea access
looking good alex!
This looks fun
Been watching for years and Googling for just as long for Chonky Cat Mug. Please share your secret of the Chonk
"Can I do it?" Queue the gong show.
Monarchist Italy here is actually neat. Monarchist Roman Empire sounds interesting, hopfully they actually keep the name as an empire now lol
Not a big detail but the "ce" in duce is pronounced similar to "Che", like in Che Guevara. Also looking forward to see more from the new DLC. Can't say I expected Switzerland to get a focus tree before Norway and Finland though.
this is gonna go great
I know it doesn’t matter but if you are pronouncing mare nostrum its Latin and it’s pronounced ma-re (re like red) nos-strum and it means our sea anyway love the video ❤
good video keep op the good work
I think you’ll succeed! I believe in you my friend I truly do :)
Truly you are the new Caesar
to make your ambition to came true you tried to click the greater italy decision instead the mare nostrum decision :D but it was a great run
I read posted 4 minutes ago as 4 months I was so confused lol I'm hyped for this dlc
I saw the picture so i know you would make it.
Haven’t heard anybody say “ma-hoo-sive” since the good old days of watching Mumbo Jumbo
the south america focus is quite something
I think you're gonna do great Alex
I know you’ll give it the ‘ol rambler try lmao
If theres no end to them, I imagine missions from the Duce will get real old real quick
Alex is a big smash
I wonder how many modders are going to use the 'balance of power' system
Before watching. It will be descending into madness
I don’t think this is going to go as planned 😂
Bad italian pronunciation, but loving the effort! 💪🏻😎 Keep on with that Alex, we surely need more italian focus tree video! 🇮🇹
Can't wait
i'm excited!
You didn’t show the one feature I really really wanted to see which was division level commanders! I mean it’s fine cause I’ll get to see you in a couple days but still that’s why I clicked on the video lol
In italian "g" sound is soft but if its "gh" its hard so not battaghlia but battaglia 😊
I will never not ask for a monarchist playthrough
Long live Emperor Ramblerini of the NEW Roman Empire
Alex is blessed with the knowledge that CAS is king, so really how bad can this go? My guess is there will be a disaster save made out of this
Yugo Fighter Jets!?
MONARCHIST ITALY PATH
Do the sultanate of Aussa (the new small country next to Ethiopia)
I can’t believe Alex used so many console commands! Watch to the end to find out how many!
Can you survive as that new small nation?
Do a monarchist pope-run pls
Please do the monarchists
“We’re starving an entire German army Corp which is poggers”
Make a monarchist path for Italy
When will paradox do a Liberian focus tree🇱🇷
We all know Alex is going to do the monarchist tree next😂
“Bringing the expansion a little bit early….” Yeah, make me wonder how soon Victoria 3 will start getting some sponsorships.
As Claus Schwab said we must increase “COMPLIANCE”
Nice
YEEEEE BLOOD ALONE! WOOOO PARADOX!! YEAH!! CAN FOR SURE PLAY IT MY SEELFFFF YEEEEEEEEEEE WOOOOOOOOOOO
i just wonder why preorderer cant have the update sooner
'Bring back the Roman Empire!' But which Roman Empire?
At this point looking at the new italian tree they really need to redo the focus trees for all the major powers since they really feel outdated by now, even the already reworked ones feel lacking compared to the italian one. I was also really hoping that the new peace deal system would finaly prevent border gore but somehow hungary really has a thing for french brittany appariently. Landlocked nations really should not be able to annex territory across the continent.
Hi Alex! I have a challenge for you! Play as Switzerland an conquer Italy and Germany.
La batialia de grano....
Nice 👍
Take over The world as Luxembourg
Bitt3erSteel just uploaded his video on the same topic. Only a couple of minutes apart, lol.
When you pick a naval designer, you'll have to refit your ships in some way for the bonus to take effect - it's not passive. Even something as simple as AA upgrades will do. Literally anything.

Also, the Italian navy can handle itself 9/10 times if you build the ships in the production queue. Add 100 naval bombers to each air zone in the Med and you're pretty much good to go. I'm not sure if they've added negative debuffs that will dramatically affect the Italians, but as of current you really shouldn't be getting the whole navy sunk. Just don't try it without building any ships... that was painful to watch.

I see what happened. Never put surface ships on convoy raiding. That's what subs are for. It's a waste of oil and gets ships sunk. All 6 battleships should be together, and set to strike. Along with the heavy cruisers, 10 light cruisers, and 25 destroyers all in one fleet. The rest of the destroyers can be split into 8's and set to convoy escort or patrol. Split subs into 8's and put on convoy raiding.
blessed timeline where Britain has its first black leader
I want to see you play as the pope, and get the achievement for capitulating the Soviets
