Mister Mosley being mean leading the United Kingdom in Hearts of Iron 4 

"We live, in a period." -Oswald "Gamer" Mosely, 1938. *We certainly do Mr. Mosely. We certainly do.*

"Maybe beat our greatest enemy ever, the french."

@Taureor: First of all I loved this video. I like non historical for all that is not guides. Then seeing you figure things out on the fly is great as it shows your thought process and enables one to learn better. As a suggestion for a video: Beat the US as the Dominican Republic without order 66.

At 54:00 minutes I checked the timestamp and couldn't believe I actually watched the wholle thing without skipping or pausing once. That is just amazing video structure and editing. Good job Taureor

Well, I can't say I expected you to actually take my suggestion! Only complaint I have about this video is you missed out by not going for the Imperial Federation, since aside from getting cores on the United States via the Dominion of North America (it's something you get through a decision after doing Unite the Anglosphere; basically, after taking all the Mainland states in the US in a peace deal, you click said decision and then Canada gets all the states transferred to them, and Canada gets cores on the entirety of the US - which includes Puerto Rico, Hawaii, and Alaska if I'm not mistaken - and when you annex them via Imperial Federation, you gain all those additional cores), you would've also unlocked the ability to form the European Union if you had the required states. You could hypothetically get cores from the additional states required to form Mutapa (Botswana, Mozambique, and Zimbabwe) and Polynesia (pretty much every small island in the pacific that isn't owned by the Dutch East Indies, Australia, or Malaya, and also Taiwan for some odd reason) if South Africa and New Zealand were to respectively form each nation due to Imperial Federation not having a fixed set of cores (before you ask, you couldn't get cores on the Dutch East Indies if Malaya formed their formable nation, since you don't core Malay via the Imperial Federation).

episode idea : I would like to recommend an episode as Japan/historical where your first conquest must be France and you must complete the conquest before France joins the Allies. This is interesting because this seems to break the game AI. After France is conquered, the Allies don't guaranty any of Europe against further Japanese aggression. With this strategy you can solve Japan's initial resource issues before you ever fight in Asia. (Hint : You can immediately request to join the Axis to get a naval invasion foothold in Europe. Joining the Axis and immediately invading France via a northern naval invasion is also the best way to play as Italy to rapidly form the New Roman Empire.)

31:15 Little tip: bombing a nation gets them involved in the peacedeal.(you need to destroy atleast one building iirc) I know it doesn't exactly apply here since Czechoslovakia is the faction leader thus a major, but I thought I'd tell you anyways. Hope you find this useful, and I apologize if you already knew this.

Great video (as always). Still waiting for ethipio challenge btw

Saving the game and then loading through the "load game" button allows you to click the war screen again. I have constantly dealt with this issue for some reason all the time for the last 2 years.

One EU under mosly, with order and tea for all

I think you should keep the parts where you make mistakes. I enjoy seeing you make mistakes and then watch in joy as you prolong your video for 30 minutes trying to fix it. Jokes aside, i'd very much like to see an uncut video. And good video as always.

i think you should leave mistakes in the video and explain how to avoid them. this could be useful for people looking to play new countries that theyre not familiar with. love bro ❤️

Taureor - Chad Republic Some other guy that isn't Taureor - Virgin Islands

FUCK IT! WE DO IT LIVE! WE DO IT LIVE!

Putting yourself at a gameplay disadvantage just to throw shade at Putin? *Common Taureor W*

"Men want just one thing and it's f-ing disgusting:" (insert a picture of Oswald Mosley smiling here)

The way you plan your naval invasions hurt my eyes

heres an idea that could be an interesting challenge, road to 56 mod, principality of Andorra takes all of spain and france

Mistakes are good, that way we know better what would happen if we make them. And it makes you seem more human 🤣

Bring Saint Patricks Day to the world. Turn the world green as Ireland

Taureor can you do a video where Italy 🇮🇹 goes monarchist and restores The Roman Empire while having The United States 🇺🇸 and Japan in its alliance?

Personally I’d like to see your runs planned and tested generally. Yet, if you clearly state in the start of the video, that it’s not a planned run, I wouldn’t mind it at all :) Love to see you upload regardless.

pov: Mówisz po angielsku ale przypominasz sobie ze jestes polakiem i mowisz Gdynia

A mix of both (perfect videos or live/first time playthrough) would be nice but i dont really care . The only thing that matter is uploading more videos but thats difficult for you.

why do you prefer concentrated industry over dispersed? ive researched and everyone said dispersed is wayy better

thanks

I prefer the scripted runs where you've planned everything out, but I understand that those are a lot more work to produce. I'd suggest just going with what feels right for the scenario. If it's something tricky then preplanning is good, but otherwise there's no harm in shooting from the hip.

video idea: check formable nations (Greater Indonesian Confederacy, Rattanakosin Kingdom, etc) and try to form them with a roleplay setting.

Can you please tell me which DLC are you using here?

very cool bro keep it up

Not gonna lie , feel like when I turn fascist as uk it’s much faster lol

Such a mean gamer moment

I quite enjoy speedrunning fascist britain, so it was painful seeing you hoard stability. But it's alright, in other aspects of the playthrough I fall leagues behind.

On Guides tested on fun ideas untested

Taureor, it doesn't matter if you think they dont get distributed equally, every province that you choose a city to be garrisoned is a province that every city will be garrisoned. Every province in India had a city tile. WHy don't you just garrison then?

Challenge: Annex thé world as Luxemburg

I prefer the mistakes in version

Take over the world as Bhutan in non historical mode. I prefer non historical, untested strategies videos.

Poland ordered 500 HIMARS - M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System - it is more than USA army has. Can you make spercial as Poland - rocket artillery only.

How about playing as historical japan

Defeat the soviet union as finland

Play nonhistorical Poland

could you add background music to your videos?

Please so a new into video me and my friends are playing the game and really suck lol love the vids been watching forever!

Mistakes are good 😃

23:37

28:00

"King George dies, he usually does." Think about George never dying as a non historical thing.

33:45 "...but we can at least introduce some chaos to (Yugoslavia)". Taureor, I don't believe an introduction to chaos has ever been necessary in that specific part of the world...

I think it's fine, you dont have to prepare for every playtrough, but say if you're not prepared so people who want to copy the strategy watch the whole video first.

Playing as Yugoslavia, go down the path where you release your territories, don't reunite them, don't join any factions and beat the Axis edit: just survive the german assault until the allies/comintern mop them up maybe?

I prefer seeing the runs with mistakes, better at showing how you adapt when things don't go to plan.

I like when you make mistakes as opposed to pure researched guides. The videos of guides I watch I have to watch multiple times to remember the optimal route. When you make a mistake live it reminds me not to make that mistake much easier than you doing everything correctly the first time.

Idea for your next video: Go down the "Lead the Minor Democracies" path on Historical as the Netherlands, with the goal of forming the European Union and owning all of your cores. I've done this a couple of times, it's quite a fun run, and you end up at war with almost every major faction in the game. A couple tips for this, from my experience: -First, rush the "Foundations for a European Union" focus. This will get all the minor European democracies into your faction. You'll pick up Belgium and Luxembourg along the way. -Refuse the German demand for the Sudetenland. For some weird reason, they don't get a wargoal. Might be a bug; please don't tell Paradox! -When Poland refuses Danzig or War (will happen a little earlier due to focuses being skipped in their tree!), but before Germany declares war, guarantee them. Immediately join the war, and overrun as much of Germany as you can. They'll be spread so thin that you can continuously advance and capitulate the Germans by the end of 1939, and Italy soon after. -In the peace deal, try to take Sardinia, Sicily and Zara. And as much of Germany as possible. -Use your focus wargoal against the Britain and Order 66 the French with military access from the war. Possible but difficult without Order 66 as well. The rest of continental Europe should fall to you easily, and then you can form the EU; but be careful that your allies don't get any of the territories you need for the EU. I hope you try this, it's one of my favorite runs. If you have any questions about this, I'll be happy to help.

The perfect morning. Waking up and seeing Taureor posted not even 5 minutes ago. Day made

I really enjoy seeing you adapt as you play, makes it more interesting!!

Mister Oswald "Gamer" Mosley

It was nice seeing the mistakes as for me it helps me recognize where I would probably make the same mistake.

Another idea from me: Play as Germany (Democratic). Create a new fraction "Europe". Puppet all 28 EU countries ingame with nearly original borders.

an interesting video could be you starting off with every technology, although you're fighting the whole world as a result basically you being super buffed vs literally every country. you can pick whatever country you want to be.

I liked it a lot, love the none-histoical stuff. I'd also like to see you play multiplayer

Taureor bingo card - 'it doesn't really matter' / 'the best guns' / 'lets deploy more troops' / Random polish noises x General bashing on hoi4 / Starting a war with a massively underequipped and untrained army x 'Attack ... Aggressively' x Infantry only army / Navy - 'never repair' /

I think a cool idea would be to go for the Tannu Tuva achievment sice it requires the manipulation of the game that you like so much

I love these videos, keep up the great work!

I really enjoy that you don’t pre-test and make actual mistakes. Most other content creators prep to make them look perfect which isn’t realistic for real players. Watching your videos includes some unexpected things but also shows players how to handle unexpected things, or make decisions without knowing the perfect path first. Please keep doing your current method as it makes your videos more enjoyable.

You could do the Dominion of North America - Canada and US so you can core it with Imperial Federation and then recreate European Union forming the strongest nation in HOI4 :D

One must admit Mr. Mosely is a handsome devil.

I personally really like seeing you trying out things for the first time, gives the video some nice uncertainty. Also, both historical and non-historical are fine. As for video ideas, why not communist Turkey? It's a nice path to go down. You could also try to do a non historical run where you try to get Austria-Hungary, the German empire, and the Ottomans back in a faction, and try to get back at Britain and France for WWI.

If it's a difficult run (like USSR truck only vs. Buffed Germany) then I'm fine with tested runs, but I would prefer untested runs for easier challenges

Hi, I really enjoy your videos. I just recently got Hoi4 and your videos help me get better even though I only have man the guns. (I’m currently doing a USA confederacy game)

i like it with mistakes because it adds more flavor to the run plus it probaply more fun for you to just go in and have fun instead of doing the same run like 5 times, i get bored halway into one game i cant imagine doing it over and over

why didn't you use naval invasion support for your landings in yugoslavia and france? since the UK has a massive fleet this might have helped enough to overcome the defenses at the ports other than that great video as usual! also really liked the support you gave ukraine!

Taureor can you play as Brazil 🇧🇷 and restore The Empire of Brazil while being in the alliance that Japan forms?

Technically, Mosley is not "Mister Mosley", but "Sir Oswald Mosley". He was a baronet after all :)

I prefer your 'unprepared' videos, it's cool to see you figure things out 'live' and the occasional mistake. I also feel like I learn more from the unprepared videos than the prepared ones.

Play as chile and make the great chilian empire: own all coastal states in the Americans, but ONLY the coastal states. (Other states can be puppets)

I like the video better when you don't fully test proof it, it is more entertaining to see you mess up.

That pronunciation of Saskatchewan

Mosley, the only evil fascist who wears tight black turtlenecks.

The British in Yugoslavia??? Seems accurate

Challenge: As the UK, annex every ocean bordering state.

Tbh I kinda prefer Moseleys path over Edward, Soley because you can do secure the dominions, and keep the dominions. Plus, both pretty much have the part of the god save the king tree

I like the "live" videos a lot. there's value in prepared video occasionally, or for achievement run; salvaging run from mistake you just made is what I do constantly. it's worthwhile to see how you handle with it, so I can learn as well

ARE YOU AFRAID PLAYING USSR ACHIVMENT NOT ONE STEP BACK? i did it already i defeated allys and axis japan and china and did achivment to build railway from Gibraltar to singapure.

I like it when you make mistakes in a chill camapaign like this but I'd prefer a more thought out guide on countries that are more stressful. Also please don't research stuff 2 years ahead of time anymore lol

This was a good video. I like the Ahistorical runs, especially with the great powers. It makes for a more interesting experience. I especially liked the Russian Forever Civil War. As a suggestion, I wouldn't mind seeing you focus on some mechanics that you do not usually focus on, such as playing a navel game with Italy or Japan, or playing an overhaul mod where you focus on the interesting mechanics rather than knocking over your neighbors with political machinations and leg infantry. XD

To be honest I like to see you run these games “live”

Paradox, its fine if you have complex systems and mechanics but COMMUNICATE IT TO YOUR PLAYER DAMNIT. (referring to the unit placement for example) HOI4 has so many of these hidden mechanic kinda things and its annoying because i don't wanna google everything.

Challenge: Try to go down the British communist tree WITHOUT decolonising, and survive the scripted civil war.

I would love a Fortress America video. It's 1942. The Axis have won all the Earth except for the Western Hemisphere. The USA must stay democratic. Oh and also liberate western Europe and Australia/ New Zealand by 1950. If you take the challenge,, good luck.

I'm here not for the game, but your calm voice. Best to fall sleep! Game of course is nice too, always fun to watch what new idea you will come up with :)

"Let's leave USA alone and see what happens." -Britain (and Taureor) Result: Trump Everyone else making their own sophisticated Tanks and Templates. Taurer *Slaps the Butt of a Rifle* "You can conquer the world with this bad boy."

Do a Bhutan conquest of Asia and you can use any exploit you want e.g. order 66. I know you love it so much. keep up the content

love the video brother keep it up. there is a more proficient way in my opinion to get the US and the dominions secured by late 1937.... in a few runs I did I had the dominions secured and the US with Mexico or the US and Brazil under my control..... also was beginning to conquer the Balkans... had France gone before Germany got involved or with them only taking a small part of Slovkia.

On the one hand it might be beneficial for people to lern from your live mistakes, on the other hand it might be more enjoyable to see those strategies unfold perfectly. I enjoy it when strategies unfold perfectly

Let me give you the world's weirdest idea Play as France, go for unite the crowns with Spain Then let Germany attack you and get capitulated. Form british Franco union and get cores on all Britain, France and Spain. Then switch back to democracy and form European union This is my theory I don't know if this will work but its worth trying Please do non historical!

Damn, poland survived a game?

I think the biggest problem is that this focus path came out before La Resistance - when we got *much better* garrison mechanics. This is one of those Paradox DLC problems where the real solution would be to update the event to use the modern garrison system and/or Resistance/Compliance, instead of the old "put dudes on the map" garrison mechanic from back in the day - but they kinda can't.

Funny to watch as a new player tens of hours on RU-vid about best division composition, support companies tier lists, ship,tank and airplane designers just too see you take over the world with mass spam of colonial divisions... Historical videos are more helpful for beginners. The fact that you didn't prepare your run actually teaches to adapt to situations so it's not s biggie. Good video, man,thanks.

Challenge Idea: Play as Germany or France and use no navy, at all. No battleships, No Aircraft carriers, no nothing. If you need to make invasions of something like, say Britain, then you could use paratroopers. See how far you can go
