Imagine being on the front and see All the bikes coming

I love the Dutch, and would also love to see a Cossack Poland run

if you need something to happen (ie germany attacks you), you can turn historical focuses off, and put germany on the historical path in the custom game rules.

The reason why there was a transfer of power in the Dutch army is as follows: Generaal Reijnders plan was to fortify the eastern front of the Vesting Holland, the Grebbeline and the Peel-Raamstelling . These 3 defence lines should be defended in force according to him. The Dutch minister of defence, Adriaan Dijxhoorn, (who was a military man himself) did not want to fortify both the vesting Holland and the Grebbeline. There was also a major discussion about the Peel-Raamstelling. Ultimately Dijxhoorn sought to replace Reijnders with Winkelman, in which he unfortunately succeeded. With Winkelman the eastern front of the Vesting Holland was abandoned and only the Grebbeline would be furthur reinforced. Winkelman would also practically abandon the Peel-Raamstelling. He only left a token force there.

I see in the monarchist Netherlands timeline the Dutch have invented cloning, must be a good general too if they wanted him three times

As a dutch I can confirm she was the only man in dutch government since the dutch monarchy is the one who has to give the blessing for the new cabinet. She was also the only one who really did shit to inspire dutch nationalistic sentiment and resistance against the germans during ww2. While the dutch government and dutch army had a struggle for power after capitulation and after they went back home.

I don't know how a guy who is so good at Hoi4 misses how he only has 30% supply

There should be a Dutch path where you go to war with the ocean

even tho it doesnt show it you can train and deploy indonesian troops into the nethrlands, so you dont have to ship them

You can deploy colonial units in your own land, even though it doesn't show the green bars. You just have to click on your territory connected to your capital. No need to sail the boys all the way from indonesia. Just a small glitch/feature

It doesn’t show the green bars over the Netherlands when selecting the location for deploying colonial troops trained in the Indies, but you can click on one of your provinces there and it will let you deploy

You don't need the supply hubs. Your within range of your hubs already, your just not distributing the supply from the hub efficiently. Building motorized to supply your troops instead of cavalry works amazingly. Better infrastructure also helps

you can deploy colonial troops directly in the mainland: it does not signal it as "green" but it works anyway.

also I love these types of videos with more explanation! feels almost like a tutorial anyone can follow - it's really nice and useful Thanks a lot!

You should probably build more supply trains. Without enough supply your casualty rate will go up. There is also a button for using civilian trains (+15 trains).

"More defectors - not to be confused with defecators."

I am incomprehensibley pleased to have more content 😀 Good Job 👍!

The icon for the equipment conversion tech changed because it used to be a picture of a factory and everyone thought it was a tech to increase the speed of converting military factories to civilian and vice versa. It's always increased the speed of equipment conversion though, they just changed the icon to reduce confusion.

nice! i was waiting for this one! time to watch!

imo grand battleplan is the best doctrine. you get tons of entrenchment bonuses, including a big one early on. the left path, especially when you have the planning bonus, has crazy offensive potential, plus some extra defensive/entrenchment/command power buffs. the right path has pretty good offensive potential as well, and that land night attack bonus is nothing to scoff at. it's just a very underrated doctrine i find.

If you go to continuous focuses, you can stack naval production, and only naval production, as many times as you want

Port is a supply hub and it's much faster to build so when u want a supply hub in the coast just build a port

Keep it up with more videos than usual

Thanks for uploading. i would love to see yugoslavia,spain or czechoslovakia!

1:01:33 "Liberia has joined us... Now we can not lose!" lmaooo

Last week I visited Amsterdam (really liked the city) and yeah, bikes are everywhere😅

What essentially happened in this playthrough was causing the majority of ww2 to be very similar to ww1, just like the allies historically anticipated and prepared for. Trench Lines and countless deaths for years on end.

If I remember correctly, you can actually just select the mainland as the deployment area for colonial divisions, even though it isn't highlighted in green.

The Kingdom of the Netherlands joins the likes of Finland and Ukraine as a master of making the enemy wear themselves down to the bone on their defenses.

Love your videos man

Tnx for this vid I waited long for my countery to show up in a vid again😄

you can deploy colonial units in your mainland. . . you dont have to train normal ones and switch or train them in asia and ship them to holland. While the green lines saying you can deploy in this state dont show up in the mainland you can still click it and they will deploy there.

Its a good day when you upload

"The only Man in the Dutch Government." What. A Queen?

When the dutch bicycles arrived coming down the mountain side

Yay ! New video !

please someday do a cossack poland run,great vid as usual

yo taureor i have been asking you to do restoring arabia for like 4 years i think now lol love your vids tho and its fine if you dont do it. i understand its hard to do every country :)

About the buffer state proposal thingy, didn't it say if your legitimacy (whatever that is) is higher than that of belgium and luxemburg you can still do the focus?

One thing to note is that if you continued playing, you'd be forced to release Germany as a puppet.

Forgetting to switch from horses to trucks has become my most common mistake. There really should be a button to toggle that on every troop forever.

I missed you Taueror

Wilhelmina has a manly face.

subtitles: political power= polka power, extra research slot = extra reset slot, commant power = command path

What mod or dlc are you using for the netherlands focus tree, i have all the dlc but not man the guns, but i dont have alot of those focus tree's how come

Why i can only get 35 units of the garrison? I see u guys clicking until 9ver 100 units..how? I do exacly rhe same

So cool that the capital of the puppet is in wilhelmshafen :D

Taureor i got a challenge for you Fragment soviet union and play as Volga Germany you need to annex all states that are cored by germany and you need to be fascist

Just woke up to a taureor vid. Good day.

Good video! However just out of curiosity, what's up with the background sound

Play Yugoslavia in no step back and try to get Peter II (he’s a child) like so Taureor can see

Can you do byzantine empire next or ottoman empire? Those are some of my favorite playthroughs cause of the difficulty that can present itself in a non-historical

Does anyone know a way to bypass the fact that you CANNOT create a faction (even with your german empire puppet) as Wilhelmina Netherlands? :( it completely destroys the endgame for me.

'We are running out of our own manpower-not just the east indies one'; while your manpower GREW by 130k during the war

I would love more of the netherlands

lovely video

Hi Taureor maybe you could try the new kaiserreich update ?

You could have rushed war with Venezuela, u get a focus war goal on them. I am interested in u doing the minor democracies thing. It might be interesting.

Even though you built the supply hubs, you had low supply due to not enough trains

I wanna see you make Gran Colombia

Damn, too op.

“ I like how being a spectator of the Great War gives you a bigger debuff than actually participating in it” I stole this comment but it’s a really good point

It's sad. The buffer state proposal almost never works. The German AI is too dumb to take Belgium and Luxembourg if the Netherlands survive. When they bash their had against the heavily fortified Dutch lines they loose too much. Why the AI can't stop attacking if it looses. They can't deal with supply as well. Last time they managed to get half of Belgium all the way to the Maas river. But they didn't captured a supply hub and were defeated by the French. The AI was too dumb to attack Luxembourg until 1941 for the supply hub nevertheless it had a war goal since 39

You had the same guy as like 5 of your generals

wow, Wilhelmina, the only man in the dutch government.

Love the title! Haha

Finally a new vid

i think the peaceful unification decision only appears when you do the european union path

Play as Ethiopia and beat up the Axis

Hot! Netherlands is underrated and so is bicycle infantry.

Dlaczego nie ma tłumaczenia:(

Naval bases (ports) acts like supply hubs. Dont build supply hub by the sea. Build much cheaper ports.

I always wondered why the dutch rifle is the Johnson m1941, in 1936...

There is no way that last computing machine is worth it. It took over 600 days to reasurch. That's probably 5 other techs. The boost to reasurch speed you get to those techs is only a few days. The reduction in time on those techs after the computing machine will not make up for the time spent reasurching the computing machine. Your actually putting yourself behind in other tech my being way to advanced in computing

Nice

These twin generals rule xD

I’ve found that the minor democracies path is actually stronger than the monarchist pth because you can unify with belgium/luxemburg by 1937 which is mad stonks in manpow and factories

well the brits refused to let me in allies :)

I would love to see small democracy’s

Why concentrated industry?

Taureor please make a Bulgaria video!

I dont like how long it takes for countries like the Dutch to actually do something other then following the default path. It takes ages to chance governments, I get that it's not realistic an entire country changes ideology in under a year. But its to dragged-out as it is now.

That was impressive. wp

Harías una campaña restaurando al zar de Rusia? Sería genial

G E K O L O N I S E E R D

Could you do the next Historical Soviet Russia and after winning against the germans go for the allies.

Gigachadess Wilhelmina

why don't you tryout crusader kings 3 it's like this game but in medieval time

If only my game went as fast as yours. :(

I TRIED THIS AND FAILED IMMIDIETLY

A chad queen.

You should play the star wars mod

You should be researching radar for the coordination boost. It's very powerful. I can't explain how it works, but there are some good videos on it.

Lead the minor democracies would also be a fun path.

You very often play absolutely nice scenarios. But it is possible to see you one day play tanks or cas or some other things? You only go for guns and this becomes a little bit boring 🙈

1:01:28 hahahahahahahhahaa good one

Alt History Channels - What if the Axis won WW2? HOI4 Channels - What if the Netherlands restored the monarchy, turned itself in a fortress state, created a German monarchist uprising against Hitler, and annexed Italy.

GEKOLONISEERD

Gekoloniseerd 🇳🇱

Bittersteel. That tech in industry tree. I think those tech was changed because now it equipment conversation not factory
