We still have LESS THAN HALF of France...but it's the top half this time! 

Zamners

good try, look more into guides mate.

So where was France taken from?

Any time!

I did your save game ad it wasn't really that bad. The templates aren't the worst and I did it about a month faster than bittersteel with a more allied favored peace deal. The main problem was really just the mismanagement of your conscription and trade as explained in the video. That and the overabundance of troops compared to your equipment in storage. simply defending and doing small counterattacks to get back some vital industry combined with buying guns on the international market fixed the equipment deficit when I tried your save. Within two months I had your templates in a full 126 division army with no deficit. Your template isn't bad because the low combat width makes it so that your divisions can stack together in multuple terrains with few combat width overstacking debuffs. All that mounts to say is you had the germans on the ropes and only nneded to be patient and wait out the storm. And the germans shots themselves in the foot the instant they declare war on the soviets which diverts so many forces that you could easily defeat the germans while they are distracted. All in all, you did good, you just got a bit impatient and perhaps a bit nervous when you had to fall back

Btw French AI sometimes goes with National Block

National Bloc is the most optimal route though, since you don't get Matignon agreements

@@konbkob4156but it’s not as historical as possible

​@@konbkob4156If you don't do Magniton Agreements then you get the labor strikes tho

@@kaigao4842not true? at all?

Yeah wait it out another 20 years again, 3rd time is the charm

You ever heard of a little operation called barbarossa?

Not really unexpected, Germany's early war conquests is only thanks to the simulation of Allied high command's incompetence, so with a lengthened Battle of France combined with Bitt3rsteel taking over and the AI shooting itself in the foot with an Operation Barbarossa it's not ready for, they would quickly lose their steam and become open to large-scale counterattacks.

yeah people tend to ignore the biggest benefit of GBP

Also as far as I remember the right path gives a bonus to the basic recon company so that it boosts the soft attack of infantry battalions as well.

left has insane battleplan bonuses that give u crazy stats, try it out if you havent (no idea if right has this lol i was just sayin)

@@cc0767 It's NOT the biggest benefit. It's a more _flexible_ benefit but GBP left has the planning bonus which equivalent to a bigger attack AND breakthrough bonus when it matters most right before you make a big push. You just have to work for it. It's a good give and take. Neither is obviously better than the other unless it opposes your playstyle.

It's more actually - it reduces the -50% night penalty to -25%. This means instead of doing 50% damage at night, you do 75%. This is a 50% night attack buff, not 25%, and 16.7% overall, not 12.5%. Those are some insane numbers, that's why this doctrine is so good.

Bitt3rSteel had done this before. In terms of this save, that's about a quarter of France lol.

​@@sakeburyojo4218 Yeah the Maginot only France hahahaa

Was about to comment that lol

More than enough for players

Another happy encirclement.

Mon dieux c'est garbage

Also went battle of maneuver lol

wasn´t Laval a collaborator and got executed after the war?

I thought the exact same thing. I was like “Bro says he went historical but didn’t go popular front”

The fact he's talking about the Division d'Holding makes it even funnier

My french got hurt 😢

J'ai senti mon âme quitter mon coeur même ma poubelle était choquée elle m'a dit il parle de moi là

Île de France (Paris region) alone is basically like ~18% of France population wise, if you add all those northern cities, it's probably half of France.

Well, 15% is indeed less than half haha

oi found these Inna old warehouse.

But did they give him a sea mine?

Hmm, I could look into it.

@@Bitt3rSteel Okay.

​@Bitt3rSteel it's called capitulating

​@Bitt3rSteel LETS GOOOOO

Video 10 of asking you to cash in on your promise: sealow heights, 27th april start, all debuffs, video ,ou ask for is on castlereaghs channel

Lots of manpower and factories,yes!

it reminded me of the time a france disaster save he played where the original player only held brest and the northern most tiles of france

@@rechteherz4131 World's thinnest France!

I'd say he just panicked about loss of so much land and all manpower of said land.

I have played hundreds of hours and I dont know how some of the mechanics work :D I had no idea for example that you need to do those concription in steps.

​@@jarskil8862Are you the guy who sent the save?

@@jarskil8862Reading all the tooltips is crucial. Half of everything I learned, I learned from tooltips

​@@Blackandwhitecat-to5llthe guy who did is now pinned

especially with Colonel Cam, it gonna be entertaining or Isorrowproductions

Frist time

Belgium 🇧🇪

Thanks! 😃

how the hell did you watch that far in two minutes?

@@Sednasit’s the power of Escargot
