No, just the default template. I won't go into more detail, unless it's relevant to the strategy. There are some really good KZfaqrs out there who explain everything about what templates work best and how to manage army, navy and air force. I don't think that I can add much to that. I focus mostly on the advanced mechanics, assuming that most viewers have already a decent understanding of the game.

@risepanda8243 Жыл бұрын

Hi, I did exactly the same and all the way to the 13:10 in the video. The civil war ended but the German reich and Czech signed a white peace and leaving Brandenburg still to the Nazis. There’s no peace conference or anything and Luxembourg is not mine, also the civil war hasn’t finished so I can’t go to the next focus tree. Could u please explain to me what’s going on?

@m3an Жыл бұрын

It's fun, isn't it? Ruined plenty of my runs and I warn about that potentially happening in the video. I don't have hard evidence, only anecdotal from my runs: Make sure that you're the one pushing Nazi Germany below the surrender limit, not the Czechs. It may also possibly involve the length of the war (below or above 7 day minimum war time). But I can't say for certain what exactly the reasons are for this to happen, unfortunately.

@risepanda8243 Жыл бұрын

@@m3an hey thanks for the advise. I just figured it out and this works. In order to get the most surrender limit of Nazis. U have to keep some troops around Berlin before turn to military junta. So that the Allie’s don’t take Berlin before you do. And quickly get Berlin before Italy joins axis. I’ve tried two times and that works.

What about a Road to 56 Nicaragua viceroyalty of New Spain speedrun(i hope that i remember correctly which central American country had that huge focus tree) in which you don't just kill all of central America except panama, Cuba Haiti and dominic and mexico but in which you get the monarchy back in Spain by conquering them(which is part of the focus tree) and you get all of viceroyalty of New Spain lands in USA(which is also a part of focus tree) it isn't that hard considering you get cores everywhere, even a beginner(which is me with my 100 hours:D) but the thing is it takes too long when you don't cheese. You have to kill america which means fighting allies which will cause not having naval supremacy to be able to kill Spain.
