One mistake was putting the planes on interception, which meant that they targeted only bombers allowing for their fighters to shoot down your planes

the fact you defeated them was absolute bananas

your economy later off was a complete bananza

Here's some tips to improve for your next try at this mod or in general when you play hoi: 1. You MUST use frontlines, not only does it let you keep a cohesive line but when you draw up plans you get planning bonuses, which benefit you both on the defensive and offensive. Use shift-click on a field marshal to disregard maintaining individual armies together and rather it'll consider them all under one frontline, not using shift-click can mess up your frontlines when the AI decides to randomly shift armies across the front leaving large gaps. 2. Don't right click with a lot of units, generally when you micro you want to manage the divisions of one province to attack into another. It gives you the potential for encirclements, lets you take more ground with less losses, and prevents you from being encircled. Slow down the game to get more micro in, you had it on 4 speed for most of the game which isn't bad, but in this scenaria didn't benefit you. 3. Separate your tanks into separate armies and use generals with tank traits to laucnh counterattacks with, they're going to be generally in hoi4 your primary offensive force. 4. Be wary of templates, they are after No Step Back very important to winning or losing battles: generally you want 21 width for defense and around 32 width for offensive, you can click on provinces to see the combat widths of each province based on terrain and other such factors. 5. SUPPLY! Supply is very important in hoi and the red icon beside a divisions generally means those divisions are going to be underequipped and unorganized meaning you lose battles, but you also take lots of attrition meaning you lose a lot more equipment than you normally do. To solve this you either have to abandon areas with poor supplies, or build up railways/supply hubs to get stronger supply. Hope this helps!

Another very good underappreciated Hoi4 youtuber to add to my collection.

In conclusion, you are not as good as soviet generals

Hey bro I just wanted to say I absolutely love your videos im suprised you don't have at least 100k+ subscribers you give of those vibes, the editing is really well done, background music isn't too loud, you focus on the right things for a good amount of time without losing viewer attention. Really well done man can't wait to see you grow.

24:41 that quote got me to instantaneously subscribe, спасибо, Товарищ! ❤️ ^ „thank you, Comrade“

You should have narrated the video instead of traveling back in-time and recording Soviet marshals throughout the war, would’ve been easier 😅 But yeah bro, this was the first video of yours I’ve seen (suggested to me) and I enjoyed your more casual, laid-back albeit constant narration. I appreciate the constant chatter because it allows me to ‘hear’ your train of thought and compare it to my own. Happy to be a subscriber Cheers man

I love bananas , also good luck getting to 3k

It honestly isnt that hard. If you take kalinin at the start and build railways to astrakhan and kalinin you basically won already. just the first six months are kinda hard to hold. also go zhukov doctrine and switch all your divisions to 21 width

good job bro when you defeated them with everything against you that was bananas

the way you defeated those germans was bananas. as someone who has too many hours on this game I want to give you few tips 1. make a separate army for tanks/mech (for soviets the best general would be zukov and for germans erwin etc etc.) 2. don't overstack your generals with too many units if you do they get debuffed to oblivion, each general can only take 24 and if they have skilled staffer skill 30 divisions. 3. you could also assign airforces to the generals or entire army groups and mechanize their supply, speaking of which 4. supply IS EVERYTHING in this game! without supply you are cooked, you need to upgrade the railways to ensure proper amount of supply is being distributed (upgrading infastructure in the state also helps) and also mechanizing the supply will also help the supply problems but only do that if you have air superiority or anti air because if you don't your trucks will get shredded from logistics bombings, also if you use logistics strike you basically win the game against AI that's why so many people go for air instead of tanks, but hey at the end of the day all that matters is that people have fun. 5. Don’t trust battle plans, battle plans basically eat up your entire supply of infantry equipments and other things, micro before using battle plans 6. While microing you should use a tactic called “reinforcement memeing” basically you don’t give a break to the unit you are attacking and you keep cycling units you attack with. 7. Make different divisions for different thing like for mountains mountaineers and for forest tiles (which most of europe is) infantry that can attack there easily, there is no “perfect” width

This video is so lit this may be the best video I saw so far about hoi4

Dude amazing video really underrated tbh

Banana2 is such a good concept for late game russia no lie

“Did you say stalin likes oranges? You’re goin to da gulag.”

FDR was going bananas with those Lend-Leases. I guess he realized that well since his Army is in tatters after a failed Operation Torch he just decided that the Soviets need the weapons more since a landing in France or Italy wasnt possible yet

Yo, i just found ur channel and i love ur content, u earned urself a sub! Good job!

Loved bit of the mod with the banana

wow, that bit about the banana was life changing, thank you so much 🥲

Gonna try this mod myself but what I would do is actually deleting crap divisions to consolidate, and then focus hard on trucks and support equipment to put logistics company in your tank divisions and then your main inf

Great video and cool bananas!

damn the comback was bananas bro

If tunnel vision was a person, it’d be you bro.

man i love your videos you just play so simple i like it but can you make video iran with iran glory mod its interesting thank you

Love these vids with bananas.

do not move your units between the bridge first, move the encircled units first instead so that they have time to move out

I can just say that the part when you conqued the banana was crazie

Wow this video is absolutely bananas 😂

absolute bananas how you retook Moscow when we all thought at one moment it was gone forever

Cue up sabaton Moscow defense

You went bananas later in the video

Okay big tip, towards the end of the game after you took back Kiev and whatnot, you should have just Battleplanned your way into Germany, as micro-ing would take both too long and not enough land when the Germans were already stretched so thin at that point that they could barely even keep a frontline

Uderrated Channel Nice Video Thx !😀

You should hold Shift while making Field Marshal Frontlines. It will make a kind of Frontline where it does not matter where which Army is. When you dont hold Shift you will have a Frontline where the AI splits it in your Armies. You will have less Gaps and your Troops will be in better Positions. But Anyways great Vid. Youre way to Underrated Your Template at 21:46 is actually pretty Decent. It has a good Speed of 8 , AA , AT and Supply , the Engineers are also well needed in this Template as it reduces River Crossing Penalty and makes the Speed better in decent Terrains but mainly it makes you Entrentch what is good to hold Counterattacks after Enciclements. The Hard Attack and Org is decent , Good Hardness. But your Soft Attack may be a little Higher and it lacks in Armor basicly support AT will pierce your Tanks. The Combat With also is a Problem. Try making it 35 since AAT. Your AF probably also got Sucked bc of the Low Detection and the low Mission efficiency. Try putting your Planes as close to the Front as possible and maybe even building a couple Airfields. But also make sure to increase Supply when there is no as Planes also need Suply probably the main Reason why your Planes had such a bad efficiency. To increase Detection just build Radars they have a great Range so. It may also be of your Plane Template. For Fighters the best is the best Engine , Self Sealing and as many Armor Plates and Heavy MGs as you just can. Building lvl 1-3 Static AA isnt to that bad as they kill a pretty good amount of CAS and Bombers for not being that Expensive. I also saw that you arent Pinning enemy Divisions. When you was about to Encicle Moscow in the 23rd Minute divions from Moscow Retreated to Reinforce the Tile you wanted to make your Encirlement with so basicly when you see that they want to Reinforce the Tile attack the Tile so they wont be able to Retreat their Divisions.

the limit of the general is very important, it greatly impact your div

cool video! for your tank division i suggest making a 30width whit around 30 organization because arms against tyranny changed the combat width,and i would replace anti tank supp. company whit engineers so when you get an encirclement you get a part of the equipment. i would also change the shovel (don't remember the name) whit flame tanks, also i recommend watching the amount of piercing and armor, because ai always upgrades it every year, like japan in 1945 as 20 armor while germany 80 roughly, now i don't know if this mod changes that, but try to build always tanks whit at least 30 piercing and 25/30 armor from 1936 to late 1939 and upgrade that to about 60 armor and 70 roughly piercing for 1941-1943 p.s. i'm not an english speaker as i'm italian so i hope i didnt make many mistakes writing and also, i tried to help from my 800hours of experience but i could have got something wrong as well. hope you understand by the way love your vids,bye! Edit: by the way this tank div is already really good, i just added some tips that make it perfect at 99.9%. Edit 2 : also focus more on soft attack and breaktrough for single player, hard attack really does't matter that much because ai really doesn't make good tank div. so focus more on soft attack!

Did you know that there was a very not well know Soviet operation called operation Bananas?

idk why, but the ladder half of this video had me craving a banana, would love to watch a stream while eating one to tbh

The Sacred War has such deep lyrics

this is my favorite type of videos😎

Leaving oil fields in the south,not breaking the encirclement in west kazahstan and forgetting Leningrad were very very big mistakes

That was bananas

I was able to hold Moscow in my game, it took a lot of cycling, org rushing and very close calls but its possible!

so happy youre back 🫡

This video is bananas

defeating numbers a banana

this video went BANANAS

Great video, , uve got urself another banana

This is bananas

I have a rt56 save where they pushed me all the way back to Kazan. tried to do a heavy tank div only run [I suck at making tank divisions[ and Finland declared war on me when Germany did. I don't think I'm skilled enough at hoi4 to salvage it lol.

18:55 “ligyt worc no reaktion”

that was bananas man

This was the first hoi4 video i watched when it came out lol

Air support is key research planes

i love bananas but most importantly i love your vids

the effort was banana

Super cool video, what mod are you playing?

those bananas got crushed like bananas

don't really watch lifestreams but I do like the idea of you lifestreaming, am sure there would be people wanting to watch you live also banana

Bananana, but yes cool vid comrade❤

I remember my first time playing this game I still got the save file lol if you wanna try and save it let me know

Idk livestreaming hoi4 wouldn't sound that entertaining but it would give you a bigger audience

deserved a sub and like

you are so underrated

sick vid man banana

You should play as the Banana Republic . I love bananas

I think you should livestream

Some plot holes for this scenario: - fall of both Leningrad and Stalingrad should mean massive demoralizing of Red Army and country, shakening the power of commies; - losing Moscow wouls most probably end career of Stalin, as commie elites (like Beria and Malenkov) wouls take their chances in overthrowing the losing leader during chaotic evacuation from the fallen capital; - losing almost whole European part of country would cut the Soviet manpower to minimal quantity, as well as triggering national movements in Central Asia; - finally, losing railroads to Murmansk, Baku, and losing Vladivostok would mean that land lease would become an irrelevant tiny stream, probably via Central Asia only

You should set up an email where people can send you disaster saves. Also my favorite fruit is a banana.

Boosting my boi JiMarkus

I managed to win in this scenario as a professional in 1945 (April), and I have 620 hours in hoi4. I even managed to somehow hold Mokswa, but I must admit that the AI ​​often escaped from the front, so I could counter-attack...

what is the soundtrack you use?

Ecuador when??? (I’m choking on a banana please help)

This was so Interesting I was Nervous the whole time this Video had me going Bananas

song name? :)

he is so goated 🙏🙏

Aint in iceland homie is ga-?

Good Товарищ.

The one good thing the Germans have terrible supply Meanwhile, we ran out of supply six months ago. We’ve been fighting the Germans with bow and arrows and empty tanks with no ammunition

8:12 oh boi the red army march LETS GOOOO As an American I may be legally obligated to hate communism but you gotta admit the USSR’s music goes hard lol I hate how it abruptly ends though

Hi, how can you see spanish troops like red caps black uniforms etc but when i look at them theyre just regular generic looking troops and if it is bcz its not latest version how to update it to latest

he said banana

When I play this mod, I’m instantly pushed even when I fall back to supply dead zones. What do I do? I just simply cannot hold anything anywhere

Abosolute banana's comrade!
