Idea: Play losing side roulette, playing all the railroaded wars but on the side who historically lost. So the Qing in Opium War, South in the American Civil War, Congress Poland in that revolt, you get the point. I think this would be fun since the losing side of these wars is more of a challenge.
Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in the Heavenly Rebellion is either nightmare fuel or easy as pie. It's hilarious sending all of the Qing loyal troops to California whilst all the TPG troops stay in China
Here's a painful challenge: Only roll for great powers. It would be fun to watch you destroy what you've built :D Also playing till making a secondary power great would be kinda fun.
You are prob one of my favourite vic2 youtubers. Just some good old gameplay with a calming voice - simplicity at its best 😌 You should definetly do more full campaigns in the future, I really liked the longer videos where you got to see the nation progress along with your chill voice. It makes for a really nice and cozy, yet exciting and intriguing watching experience - perfect after a long exhuasting day. Italian Fed. is definetly my favourite video so far! A video on GFM France would be kinda cool though😎👉👉
I've never seen a country roulette NOT drive somebody insane, but then again the guy who sorta popularized the idea was 90% of the way off his rocker when he came up with it, maybe you'll be luckier.
fyi at 37:00, this happens when you retreat all units currently in the battle. If you click on the battle you can see what brigades are actually fighting, and if all of those get retreated you lose. Even tho they were at low strength, they did not fall back from the frontline yet, so the army you retreated was every unit currently engaged.
If you want to strictly adhere to rules, at least make it so the switch happens every six or seven years. Or maybe just grant yourself the right to double time before switch once.
That was a really fun watch tbh! France really got torn apart by the end there, did it turn fascist? And I know in my Vicky games when I occasionally check to see what the state of the world is, I feel tempted to try another country when it looks like they're in an interesting position.
Roll again when a tag doesn't exict (releasable or not).. That way you don't play as much as a great powers like Russia or Germany, who have quite a lote releasabble tags..
the way you had it by playing whoever controlled the tag not just the tag you made it so that you were way more likely to get big nations since they effectively had way more slots on the wheel. it would be better to just reroll if a tag doesn't exist to have better chances of getting places like the netherlands or Belgium
As Two Sicilys I Got Major Power Before Even Forming Italy Just Because Of African Colonies And A Few Colonies In Asia. I Literally Surpassed Russia- No Even Better I Kicked Them Out Of The Great Powers List. Then I Literally Sphered Russia As Two Sicilys. And How Did I Form Italy? I Literally Sphered Austria. I Built The Panama AND Suez Canal. I Invested In Russia Got Them Back In My Sphere And They Didn't Get Major Again.
As Saxe-Weimar, would annexing Saxony have killed you? I am unsure when the North German Federation unlocks in this mod, but if Saxony was under your control and, by proxy, in the German sphere, i am unsure it’d go too well.
I got into Vic 2 cos of this channel and so I've been using ccHFM, but looking at the Reddit today everyone seems to be saying that GFM is the best mid for Vic and it does seem to updated more often. I have really been enjoying ccHFM, and I see that this video still uses it, but should I be switching over?
I recommend using GFM if you want to play major nations like France or Russia, or if you want to do meme flavor decisions. With GFM once it passes 1900 the game runs slow so if you have a bad computer keep that in mind. Also in my opinion I think GFM makes the game too easy for expanding. If you like map painting definitely switch to GFM. I still use ccHFM because it's very consistent in its performance and rarely crashes.
Really like the idea, but because the small tags are just boring and unfun, you should only do it with tags you actually want to play. Just leave out african nations, have it be mostly interesting tags, and then don't stick to the 5 year limit too hard, if you're in a war just finish it before swapping.
@@schmoovle7244 That work around bothered me. Instead of just ignoring 80%+ of the video, I watched it through and commented on all of those instances. He gets community engagement way up, and I get to express my dissatisfaction. It's a win-win.
