Roman Empire in 1936 By Blood Alone - Hoi4 Italy Speedrun Commentary

Ойындар

Hoi4 Roman Empire Speedrun, and it's the last one. But I was too obsessed with it. I just had to give it another go.
I won't play Italy in Hearts of Iron IV for a while and instead take on some other challenges. I still have some strategies on my mind that didn't break with version 1.12 and the DLC By Blood Alone. And some new ones as well. The new peace conference system as well as other changes to the game makes some new shenanigans possible that I will definitely make use of.
Stay tuned!

    I think is good overall. The focus is Roman speedrun but would be nice to have things like the mentioned buggy transport planes expanded upon. Perhaps adding a short explanatory text or linking to another video about the topic in the corner of the screen (i annotation icon) or in the description.

    Considering he already has cores on UK, France and the Mediterranean. He should be able to take over the rest of Europe rather easily. With all cores of the Roman Empire he has similar amount of manpower as China does while having more industry than late game USA does. He can now do a world conquest without problems. Basically infinite manpower and weapons.

    Great run, also easy to replay yourself. I've tried to turn this into a papal state run (maybe achievements, too), but you'll sit on the 100% BoP to the right after the Britain/Albania war even after deposing Mussolini. Winning the war will even bring him back as he isn't removed from the BoP. Additionally the balance reset from 'Seeking papal support' only works if the BoP is on the left side. If only there was a way to prevent BoP changes through war results...

    I managed to get it going by losing control over some core provinces during the war against Yugoslavia. With some timing you'll get 0% BoP after seeking papal support and up to 65% papal support soon after with the focuses and a hierarch advisor.

    To rise tension you can also enter and exit axis. It doesn't work by itself if you try to reach the full 25 but if you justify on the US and also do that you can reach the UK gurantee limit and declare war in time to justify also on spain(i think late may) and capitulate them in the first war (just like in the old tutorial)

    I don't dig speedrunning for my own playthroughs, but it is fun to watch. Funny this popped up just today, since I'm in the middle of a Roman Empire run myself. Instead of going fast, I play like a rat, trying to pick up whatever territories I can in ahistorical mode without waking up any majors until I'm good and ready to beat them in a stand-up fight. When Britain flips commie, that makes things much easier because it stops guaranteeing minors and it releases all its colonies, usually as free states. The only other variable for me now is whether Germany manages to found Vichy France, since I leave most NS nations on historical settings. I make it even harder on myself too with my own personal restrictions on play. I can never declare on a European nation directly unless it is communist, with the exception of Spain and Portugal, or countries which hold my cores (So I could start The Troubles as Ireland, for example.) And I must form my own faction if at all possible. No piggy-backing on the Axis to pick up territories I want or need.

    Any chance for a Pope driven Roman empire run, probably can't be done as speedily. Haven't seen anyone do this one yet though and I've tried

    Solo conquests don't have this issue, since your total score isn't divided into rounds, province cost don't increase, etcpp. If viable, I would always try to avoid shared conferences.
