Well you got me, gonna try this MMO. Not expecting much but hey, maybe it'll be fun because I've never heard of it before. So naturally that means it couuuuld be good I guess. Thanks for the free shit, although I mean I know you make money for the channel so it's not like you gave it to give it but still.

Bitter you know the cheesy tactic of assigning the field marshal to a plan and then assigning the general a garrison order to a neutral country you can use it for the port encirclement so you support attack the units in the port in that way they won't move into the port and they will get the advantages of the planning bonus

If you're frustrated with the way railways go wonky, hold shift and then click - the railway will snap automatically to the shortest route from start to cursor
Fun fact for HoI IV gaming: if you hold "shift" while building railroads it will build them in the most efficient (and usually straight) path possible, and if you let go of shift after you get your mouse to the end of the rail you're building, it will still build the railway on the most efficient path but at level 1! No need to thank for that (rather convoluted) advice Feedback, honestly thought you'd know that by now 😅

Tip for the Qingdao exploit: delete the frontline but keep the troops there. When troops land, control right click on them. This will do a support attack (blue arrow rather than red) and your troops will destroy theirs but won't accidentally walk in.

Omg thank you for covering by merit alone. I could never get that without your help. I barely know anything about general xp. It would be awesome if you did a general farm guide or something like that. I never really know what to get besides infantry expert, logistics wizard, improv expert, and offensive doctrine

There is a lot to enjoy in your video, and I can relate to the struggles of overcoming the language barrier. It's quite funny, haha. Thank you for making another great video. As for your next one, I would love to see you play Crusader Kings 3. I have already voted for it on your community channel.
Nice video. I just did this recently, and its a minor point, but to get the Romance of the Three Kingdoms achievement you just need to integrate the puppets, this can be done with the regular mechanics OR the special integration events.
I'm so happy to see you doing guides again!
Nice video keep up the good work
Would love to see a long version of this.
Could you do a challenge that has you control Germany in 1943, but... Your rail efficiency reflects the real world, where up to 60% of the rolling stock and engines took priority to move people to the...winter...camps... Could you win with that massive handicap?
I actually keep the coastal supply hubs disconnected so they have to use convoys. While I am defending I mark the sea zones as "no access", this will prevent your convoys from travelling through the sea zones but the supply hubs will be disconnected (unfortunate but necessary for what follows). Once I have the Japanese pushed out of the mainland I start producing a good amount of NAVs, and once I have around 200 I let the convoys have access again. This baits Japan into convoy raiding the shallow sea zones, and if you put the NAVs up you will absolutely SHRED their subs. Once I paradrop mainland Japan they have no subs and so they can't convoy raid me anymore (the AI will never use surface ships to raid). So I get to move my troops in without worrying about them getting eaten by subs or having no supply once they arrive. I've used this to reliably cap Japan by mid-41 which means no USA in the Allies, so it becomes much easier to fight them later on if you want to keep playing.
Oooooh I finally spotted my name in the members divisions !
Ah, China. Watching your old china videos was how I finally got the hang of playing this freaking game, happy to see an update.
too be honest you basicly taught me hoi4 and your my fav hoi4 youtuber Keep It Up
As I recall you can control + click to have your divisions attack the enemy in a tile, but keep from moving into the tile.
Your videos are amazing 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
The video description references the use of the DLC No Step Back. Maybe it should indicate the use of the DLC Arms Against Tyranny. Nice run and fantastic editing. I really enjoy your HOI4 videos. Thank you for making them.
4:26 hey bitter if you press control before clicking for the railway it will create the shortest route possible ;)
It would be amazing if you made an updated Ultimate Spain guide, It's the one country I simply can't play
Thank you so much!! I was finally able to get those two achievements... now... Could you make a video with a warlord? 😁
You can sign the non aggression pact while Japan is completing it's focus to get a wargoal
hey bittersteel, i saw you have problems with railways, you know you can just hold shift, click the starting point, unhold shift, and then clicking on the end point, and it will automatically give you the optimal path?

and also you can ctrl+right click the port trap instead of stopping the attack every time because with the ctrl+right click method your units just attack, they don't walk into territory
The spy cheese is funny because that kind of diplomatic delay is sort of what Chiang was going for (big reason Manchuria was ceded without a fight). In game, Marco Polo also gives you a choice to cede land to further delay and allow for a bigger military build up. In reality it was political suicide and executed very poorly but what is historical accuracy in HOI4?
I loved this one so much! Still hoping for a current day roman empire guide!!
Ive said it before and im going to say it again, GBP is stastisticly better then superior firepower, if your doing tank pushes go left, if doing inf defence/attack go right path

it maxes out better and you have a doctrine that take weeks between each attack to properly use, yes SPF is easier to use since it's just raw stats. but most importantly it's very frontloaded with bonuses not saying it's bad, just that there's reasons to pick one over the other

13:50, im doing this guide right now, and japan still had a -4 opinion of me and wouldnt take a non aggression pact, so improve relations with them so they will accept on top of providing diplomatic pressure

Instead of stopping units manually like you did in Qingdao you can instead “control+ right click”. This way your troops automatically stop after beating the enemy.

"I hate how those railways are stupid zigzag..." Well, welcome to the real world of building railways in that area in China lol.

Saving this vid only downside don’t have Al the dlc’s 😅😢
Just a quick question, the frontline mass produced units are still the plain 18 width units no?
I can't say why, but when it comes to forming Nationalist China, i am always drawn to Xibei San Ma to do it.
This China became Ai in my game after defeating Japan and declared war on my puppet. It’s hell to defeat in the East

@bitt3rsteel Can you now play a the 2023 but 1936 mod, play as Nationalist China and retake China? Obviously you're stuck on Taiwan. And the mod gives the PRC a decent fleet. The cruisers are a bugged template and are worthless, but it's still enough to make getting naval supremecy difficult. So you'll probably need paratroopers. Not to mention they make a massive army pretty quick. I want to see how you make it work. Oh, and also the Japanese don't seem to attack the PRC until the Nationalists are defeated. So they can't even be somewhat helpful and be a distraction to the reds. It's a tough playthrough. Should make a good video.
No way Sabaton reference 24:43 😳😲🤯
So I've just had an issue... and I don't know if it's because of my scrub methods or not. Playing Historical, Civilian difficulty (shush), and followed this guide roughly enough that it shouldn't be an issue. I... can't cheese Qingdao... I've had a total of 4 naval invasions since the war started, it's been just over a year now, and none of them have gone to Qingdao... I'm sat here waiting for something to happen so I can milk and cheese the Japanese armies to reduce their numbers, but I'm not being given the chance to do so. Aside from changing difficulty, is there anything that could cause this? (I have some mods, but nothing AI changing) EDIT: After 2 years... it finally happened -.-

Deng Dong Truly the best general in the world. Sun Tzu will be proud
Personally, I think as a meme they should make it so only leaders who have 'Sun' in their name qualify for the achievement
I know this technically doesn't fit this video, but I have a few questions I'm hoping @Bitt3rSteel could answer. I'm playing as Xibei San Ma transitioned into Nationalist China- it's April 1944. As I was mopping up Manchuria with the United Front, Communists declared war. I'd beaten them later, but they had been accepted into the Allies and called them in. My UF allies are holding firm in Burma and I think northern Pakistan judging by province flags. I've taken down Japan with paratroopers in Feb '44 since I am lagging behind on navy research. I want the Battlecry achievement, and maybe even I'll Make a Man Out of You. The problem: every warlord refused to submit after Subjugate the Warlords finished. My question: *is there a way to puppet a country without having the country's divisions vanish upon capitulation, or should I simply let the wargoals expire and fight the war alongside my faction members* ? Wargoals expire in late September '44. Axis has taken Baku and Moscow, but not Leningrad and Stalingrad. Italy had its pro-Allied turn, and Axis forces in central Italy are cut off. No D-Day yet, though. Is it maybe wise to attack the USSR?
the port cheese tactic is so OP - also AI is so not able to do naval invasions. makes the game kind of stupid frankly since AI D-day only works very late in the game after Germany takes like 12 milion + casualties
Never played hoi4, just DH. But i like then anyway.
