The Swedish Lion in the North ROARS! 

I died in my 1st game because o forgot to hard the Norwegian ports and then Germany got past the islands because of one ensercalmef

To be fair to paradox. The social democrats really bought in to the whole “war to end all wars” and the League of Nations existed (lol) so why spend anything on the military? Kinda caught with their pants down in 1939. What followed was a massive militarisation and about 550 thousand trained and ready in 1943 and why schmitler decided to not invade in 43 which was planned. The idea was to save Denmark and Norway (literally called that) in June 45 to stop any soviet expansion but well… It ended before that

⁠​⁠@@jacksonidontwhatyoutoknowm9480I hate when I get ensercalmeffed

That is PDX trying to create balance for the player.

@@jacksonidontwhatyoutoknowm9480 me too, i always get ensercalmef

Mods have known how to make focuses like that for years. Paradox knows how to as well. They just want the game to take a long time to keep some semblence of history.

and so it doesnt get boring easily, trust me, i know from RoN’s unrealistically quick time that everyone gets bored of.

70 Day focus trees are basically the reason i do not play Vanilla. Those focus trees only give bonuses. Mod focus trees tell a story or something about a movement.

USSR - Path of Marxism-Leninism - 14 days

@@dystop_ 35 days

The best timeline (not biased)

Its so cursed, when i saw Sweden's focus tree size, i was on my knees

I wish Indonesia,Malaysia,Philippines have unique focus too like Machukuo and Vichy France have. They also participated great in WW2 plus getting Maphilindo Federation as formable nation or ASEAN would be hilarious. Alt history such as the core members of ASEAN going communist or fascist would also be good considering most of the member countries are either exploited by European nations or sick of westerners colonization

@@nawver4848 Eventually every country will get a focus tree just takes a few years for the dlcs to arrive

@@Nurullah1445 TNO and TWR did justice to many countries however something's off about the alt history or alohistorical focuses. Philippines may be a communist country if the revolution against Spanish Empire succeeded without America intervention or may be fascist if the guns purchased to fight spaniards was delivered on time and not sinked by America due to justification of war against Spanish (it's historically accurate given the Spanish-American war leading to Treaty of Versailles)

Facts, he is very underrated

@@edis0088yes he is indeed

Paradox games are far too complicated to pick up to have the same mass appeal as another game/RU-vidr of said game lol

WAIT I THOUGHT HE HAD OVER 1M omg

I kinda love it lmao, very Kaiserreich-esque

I mean the name is fitting great

It's closer to "The great northen kingdom"

Lolll😂😂

May he lead the glorious African Union well! 🇸🇪

>be Nils Flyg >be important in Swedish communist party >kicked out of the party for not sucking Stalin's dick enough >found rival communist party >embrace naziism "death to communism! Long live communism!" >die in 1943 >refuse to elaborate

communist and hating stalin? based.

I find this path the most useless, you can't do anything at all to/with the other Nordics, Why'd you ever wanna play it...

@@512TheWolf512 I found the new update kinda cool for Norway, Denmark and Finland but to me it completly fcked Sweden and nerfed it into the ground. It just takes so long to get anything done as sweden that i just turn back to other countries

​@@wargames43Watch Stakuyi play because he maxed out the industry in 1940

I would love to see that play a role. Neushwabenland allowed Germany to extend the reach of its U-boat fleet even further, and some of the biggest expeditions to the continent of the time were conducted to gain control of more resources for the war effort. While they're at it, maybe they can pop South America's cherry by giving Argentina a thick focus tree, similar in theme to Switzerland but with more focus on creating a beefy spy agency, possibly with sick bonuses for every member of its faction if/when it breaks neutrality. Argentina was a huge espionage hotspot during the war for both the Axis and the Allies. As a sovereign nation with an official policy of neutrality, it afforded all parties involved the opportunity to seed their embassies and consulates with intelligence operatives, effectively becoming the training grounds for Cold War espionage doctrines. It was also one of the few places in the world where nations on either side of the conflict could maintain communications without going through official channels, which were all but shut down in the name of national security.

Trotsky’s penguin invasion.

​@@joskarifinaukr6503I like the idea of getting a focus tree being equivalent to losing one's virginity

@@Buzzy_Bland No, definitely not that.

A new landmass in the south would be epic, along with it paradox could extend the top of the map to the tippity top of russia canada and that norwegian island. Though everything would look incredibly weird since it's a 2d map, and the upper tiles would need to be quite big for realisms' sake, 2d map mercator projection and all

I suggest avoiding it when playing co-op mp... i was Finland and Sweden puppeted me and took literally everything i had... most of my civs, all of my mils and most importantly... Mannerheim... Mannerheim gone = enthusiasm gone

It's good in R56 too

Is there a way to remove neutral foreign policy without taking the old enemy stirs? I want to join a faction with friends playing Norway and Finland.

I second this. 😎👍

Absolutely

You Got your priorities straight bro

russo-Ukrainian war is way more important tho. Besides hoi4 of course.

@@512TheWolf512 so we should only worry about the worst war then

Plz naem mod

To the Skies, see Carolus Rise!

Struggling the same, also can't find how to get this Minister of Defence... have a few ministers shown I can't see to get following the guide

@adamjohnston2774 for the minister you gotta get the Infrastructure Investment policy

Also as an addition for any who bother to look the germans will keep their non aggression pact with you as long as you have an army on the border with them so once you have nabbed the land you need just park an army on the border and you will be safe for basically forever

Thanks, will do!

Bittersteel probably has

I have

I know, but the monarchy paths just draw me in!

They tend to be the funniest tbh

Glad you like them!

It made both.

Once you get govt contracts, you get guaranteed purchases every year. Consumers are not obligated to buy cars. As well as some part of weapons manufacturing is reserved for domestic industry.

Can't wait to see the new templates the goblins will come up with, something like 12inf+Shovel+recon+2 art

We need additional Swedes

@@Bitt3rSteel playing Sweden is such pain, you got so lucky with that puppet borders you got out of USSR. By the way, why didn't you form Kalmar/Nordic league?

@@512TheWolf512 honestly liked the color of the Swedish empire. It also gives cores, so no loss

Sweden can destroy the resources. You have to click a decision to repair the mines, costs 15 ivs and takes 120 days

Yes! But I'll need to purge a lot of older ones, now that we are on version 1.13

Ok, ill try another save and see how it goes! Shall i post it and then sent it to u on google drive?
