Imagine using grammatical quotations

Rather than a cav template, if you make the template a single artillery and then leave that as their only template the civil war is easier. A single artillery has quite literally 0 organization. So it gets instantly pushed by literally anything attacking it. Even if you then use cav units for their movement speed you'll still outfight them.

Speaking of onions I remember a story about a soviet official who lost the favour of Stalin and was thus worried about being assassinated, particularly by poisoned food. He decided that he should eat only eggs, since he thought they couldn't be poisoned. But eggs can be poisoned and the NKVD killed him with eggs.

I do Bukharin path pretty often actually, its pretty fun. You can get 0% consumer goods, which is kinda op, even with your construction speed debuffs. You even get the toned down version of the Stalinist COMECON focus (the one where you steal your puppet's factories), but with Bukharinist Russia (technically you should pick Rykov for 0% consumer goods) you could also steal resources from your puppets, but thats kinda redundant now with the new peace deals

That one is nice, but can be spiced up, though. When you completed "Colonial Army" foci, only the eastern (Christian-majority) East Indies and Batavia that should automatically given the recruitable pop. modifier. For the rest of the islands (the Muslim-majority Java, Borneo, Sulawesi, and Sumatra), there should be propaganda campaigns to recruit them. Also, upon Bevrijding, East Indies should be released as a Supervised State since that was the plan from both the Queen and Governor-General Stachouwer since May 1940.

You can win the civil war so fast by both trading away all of your equipment to Spain and making their units one width arty. It’s just the best way to do it.

Fun fact:Did you know that the world's largest pyramid is not in Egypt, but in Mexico? The Great Pyramid of Cholula is a massive ancient structure located in present-day Mexico. It covers an area of over 4 acres and is nearly 100 feet tall. It was built by the ancient Maya civilization as a temple to the god Quetzalcoatl and was later covered by the Aztecs with earth and clay, giving it the appearance of a natural hill.

Quick guide on how to end the civil war in 2/3 months. Make your army exercise for 5/10 army exp: you need that to make a usless 2 width anti-air template, and if you want to speed up the process, use the other 5 to make a 2 width cavalry template. Put all your mils on guns. Take only the territories with the railway west of chita. there is no need to worry about vladivostok. DO NOT take more than necessary. You'll need the pp for later. Before the war starts, do the lend lease cheese and convert all your division to the anti-air one. Once the war starts, convert all of your divisions to the cavalry one. Train as many as you can and spam them as soon as possible and go to war economy. Make a gigantic frontline, put on aggressive, and let them go. Keep some troops on the north and est border, so that you dont die. Once the war ends, start improving relation with china, so that you can sent an attaché to them and get the war support needed for your war economy. You can pretty much beat Germany in 39 with this setup.

Nine to fourteen infantry with up to four artillery. Add Antiair, artillery, and up to any three support companies of choice. This is a solid line holder, even if the enemy has air superiority. Fighters you max out heavy machine guns, and stitch on some self sealing fuel tanks and armor plates. You may want to replace the armor with extra turrets if you have production to spare. For offense, bring tanks and mechanized in reasonable quantities. Piercing is kind of unimportant, as the ai tanks do not prioritize armor. If you have 200 armor, you are unpiercable by the ai. A 3 tank and 6 mech is quick to produce and can generally punch through lines to get you a small encirclement, but you will want to beef them up sooner rather than later. Planes are key though. Control the skies and even trash units who are entirely focused on holding the line will bleed the enemy enough to walk over them.

Fun Fact: The concept of a Third Rome originally came from Medieval Bulgaria in the 14th century when it experienced a cultural golden age and its capital Tarnovgrad eclipsed Constantinople, which had long been declining at that point. After the Ottoman conquest of Bulgaria many Bulgarian scholars fled to the lands of the former Rus' (Ruthenia and the Duchy of Muscovy) and influenced the Muscovites with what was basically their unique interpretation of the Translatio Imperii.

Good Morning is weird to hear while its 21:30 over in turkey..

hi iSorrowproductions and everyone else!

The only time I did third Rome was for that achievement. Things went wrong three times when the Soviets kept joining the axis during the civil war. Finally won it. Went down the focus tree without realizing it would ruin the achievement by going third Rome so I quit and never attempted it again.

No Mr. ISP I did not have a good day, I have norovirus.

I play Romania a lot, but every time I just go for Balkans Dominance with His Majesty's Loyal Government and dominate the Balkans by '39 because the whole Preserve Greater Romania and Flexible Foreign Policy branches just lead you towards joining the big three factions rather than do any conquering of your own. So maybe a video where you do go flip-flop between all three factions as Romania?

nothing compares to ISP videos to go sleep with, me, who drank whole night and was debating for whole fucking morning, sorry for my language dear ladies and gentlemans, its such a pleasure

I actually did this yesterday just for fun. After I did the "Dismantle the Zemsky Sobor" focus, I joined the axis. Germany never kicked me from the faction or declared war on me even after they did the war goal focus. We defeated the allies, I got Canada and other colonies, went to war with the U.S.A. because we killed the allies before they joined, and it was all free real-estate from there. I didn't go third rome and stayed fascist, which I think is why Germany hasn't kicked me from the faction and attack me.
