Me and the boys trying to make a game with the 5 worst countries :

For those who are familiar with chess, this game has many similarities. Its all about slowly improving your position on the board, and gathering your pieces for an attack. Every nation is a field on the chessboard, so to speak. Some fields are more important than others. Saudi and Egypt for example are like d4 and e4, while New Zealand is more like h1.

My first game won was with China, I was a noob and made a coalition, Russia, India, Pakistan and Japan joined it and everyone were AFK so we just rolled on them

I played as thailand in my first game and my startegy was to have some diplomatic relations with my neighbours and those who didn't comply just got conquered after that, I just keep piting people against each other and a lot of betrayals, which most of the time planned by me but I hired someone to do the dirty work with this strategy I made it to the end of the game being the only asian country standing with my alliance called the great alliance.

Hey guys In this video we classified the best nations as the best countries to have a chance for solo win ! Solo wins are very hard and you all need distant nations as i mentioned ! India, Sweden, Uk ...etc have a lot of threats around them and starting solo will make you in a middle of a lot of enemies !

What I found with Russia is that you can easily form a coalition with China and India and everyone is too scared to attack you

Everytime when I’m playing Germany, I creat a Coalition with France and Poland or UK so nobody in Europe wants to attack me. That’s how to play with Germany

I love to play as Sweden, especially in rising tides because it doenst have any connections to the rest of the world from land, it's really easy to defend in early game and norwey and Finland are usually picked by bad players from what I experienced

Thank's you are the first people who speak easy english for non english native, greetings from france 🇫🇷

When I play Australia I always relocate my capital to Alice Springs to prevent naval attacks on my capital and I 100% agree with you about Japan. I just won a game and it's my second favourite nation.(Behind the UK)

Finally I found this good video. I was searching for such a video, but there was not any good one. This is a great one. BTW, I am one of your discord members :)

As a fellow South African and a anime watcher I love this game

Melliodas, I have a game suggestion. Please use your YT platform to make it happen. Here is the suggestion: *The ability to sell infantries, tanks, supports, fighters, helicopters, heavies, naval, missiles (basically everything except elite weapons) with some daily limit of maximum 10. This way it will be awesome to recreate Cold War or Soviet Afghanistan War or Cuban Missile Crisis as countries can sell weapons and make proxy wars possible. It could force golders to spent more gold for fighting, thus making a profit for CoN.*

I really reccomend India as it is kinda OP ( you got 8 cities amd small countriea around you) you are making tons of rescources since the start. You easily take pakistan afghanistan etc. You only need 2 stacks of navy to protect yourself. I found India really amazing :)

great video, I never realised how good chad was!

I have actually played Bolivia. I had to defend against 3 nations at once: Chile, Argentine and Peru. I defended for more then 2 weeks (had 1X game speed) and it ended by me conquering most of Peru, half of Chile, me vs. them about 1:3 manpower losses in my favour and all of them quitting the game. My saving grace was probably that their big ally, Brazil didn't join in. At the end of the day I joined his coalition (instead of those three) and we proceeded to almost beat the game until gold digger has steamrolled it all.

Yoooo dude I found ur channel a week ago and I’m the uk and I conquered the following:Iceland,Greenland,Ireland and America and some of Spain,u inspired me to be so good at the game and I want to thank you man,u changed my gaming career

I began playing as large nations from my very first game, Specifically the U.S.A The reason I think it's good is because yes, it is big and it is very hard to defend, but it barely has any points of attack. The most vulnerable sections are it's costal cities, border with Canada, and border with Mexico. For anyone but south America, the states are 100% impenetrable. Here's why. My main strategy is to make my costal cities naval cities where I produce mainly navy. New Orleans is my most important naval city. I can blockade the entire gulf of Mexico especially with help from Cuba and Mexico. Another thing is, blockade your coastal cities. I have three naval blockades One on my west coast One on my east coast One in the gulf. It only took me 5 days to set it up. Hawaii is also a great ticket to Asia and the pacific. So is Alaska. My favorite and most secure cities are Chicago and St. Louis. I use St. Louis as my secret weapons base. As it is in the very middle of my country making it the hardest city to take. I can go on more if any of you have more questions about my layout

One of my favorite nations to play is India because you can easily take Nepal, Bangladesh, and sri Lanka and easily take Pakistan and Myanmar and if you become allies with China then your invincible. It also doesn't have too many coastal cities and the neighbors aren't agresive

my first win was with UK, My coalition was Romania,Germany,France and Italy. Tbh it was amazing

Pakistan is also very bad to play as. At the start, You're a great first target for Afghanistan and India (And keep in mind that India has 8 homeland cities). Probably another hugely underrated country is Mali. You have Mauritania, Ghana, and Niger as AI countries, and you're neighbors are gonna be busy with other countries. Algeria will be busy with Morocco or Libya, and Nigeria will be busy with Cameroon. So you get a lot of time to prepare.

I played as chad once, I had a lot of fun playing it. Also Canada is underrated, I had most of my wins as Canada, because the only country you border is USA and all you need to do is expand down

Bruh that arty stack is amazing.I love how my sams just wreck those planes

My first ever win was also with Austria. Coalition win;-)

i’m a bit experienced already, but i just started a Italy game on flashpoint, 10 days and i’ve steamrolled half of europe fully solo

Can you make a simple tier list of recommended and not recommended countries please? It would help a lot for when the top 5 are already chosen

Nice Video. And good to know. My fisrt win was with UK and without any Marine units :D. This was the first time I ever played . Only member in the Coalition was Germany. We won this game after 34 days.

10:02 i played with Austria in a 64 player map, I dominated all the balkans, playing solo, I'm investing in tanks and infantry, since I don't really like Planes, tanks are my favorite units, I like Ships too. I also love to play with Serbia in the 30 players map, I like the small Nations, that you have to face difficulties since the start of the match

I just finished a coalition win as coalition leader with Philippines. I started solo, and was building my economy, building my army, and grabbing small countries, while I watched nearby countries Australia and Indonesia destroy eachother. I waited until they were exhausted, and was able to destroy both of them after that. I was building the strongest navy in the game and had a very solid defense for all my home cities, but nobody seriously attacked me. There were 3 big coalitions, which could become a problem later in the game. Europe, South America, And Russia with the Middle East. I noticed that Russia was growing very fast, and that Cameroon was an experienced player who also played solo. I invited Cameroon to join me in a coalition, because of the other coalitions. He agreed and he destroyed Russia's main allies in the Middle East. After that, Russia also joined my coalition. The 3 of us wiped out all threats after that...

You’ve mentioned the nations that I never played as, or can get.... “great” advice for me

Thank you a lot, nice video. Keep going

I'm surprised you chose chad .. I guess I'll have to try to play to rate 😋 I played the rest and I agree hhh very good and helpful video 🥰❤

What do you think of the United Kingdom?

Japan is really hard and needs experienced players with a premium. Otherwise with Japan before you can even mobilize your first ship, you'll already be under attack.

Romania is a godly country because it has loads of bot countries near it to take over and it has strong country’s near it which can be either taken over or preferably Allied with, they also have a coastal city which means they cover everthing and have a good position on map

Everyone want to kill Russia? Laughs after 100 games where nations rarely attack Russia Edit. Also, Belarus is played by good players much like Chad. Great defensive nation from cities so close that missiles attacks are irrelevant, and its sea border where it can defend the Baltic Sea with one crossing only ~ From a somewhat a Belarus Main. P.S. Will try Chad more though

New Zealand is pretty dope too. There’s literally no one near you except Australia and if you immediately build your navy it’s basically impossible for someone to invade you for most of the game.

love your vids so much. when are we getting a new series. also i’m first.

I made a total banzai charge into Russia with my entire army as Finland and fucking won the war as soon as I started it 💀

One of my favorites nation to play with also is India, its good in resources and more

Only 5 games I ever played was as Sweden and I won all of them.

I play with Russia and i win with 2100 points, and i destroy 2 coalitions by my self im really proud of that

Find Romania my hidden gem. Attack Helicopters, Heavy tank doc. Usually start with corvette and national guards Lots of oil most of the time but resources change per game or mod

Philippines is also my favourite country, is so fun to make big atacks with your navy :D

YES! I was waiting for this :)

I challenge you to win with 1 of 5 worst nations that you present in your video

My annoyance with the game currently is that most games on 4x seem to really only have 1-5 actually active players and then maybe 5-10 semi-active and then the rest are basically inactive or newbs. It just makes the game by the late game rather boring because depending on where you start you can get a free ride and then just nuke everyone around you since you have so much material. No one is game to attack you and the ones that are, get isolated and eliminated one by one.

My favorite is definitely Turkey. I enjoy being the bridge between Europe and the Middle East and holding an important role in each. My first game I won was Turkey and I still enjoy playing it.

I was playing as Belarus I was Allies with Poland, Ukraine, Romania, and Finland and we took over Russia.

I enjoy playing Bolivia every game :)

My favorite countries are Ethiopia and Israel. Ethiopia can easily take out sudan to the left and provide a nice barrier from being attacked by egypt or chad (egypt usually goes for israel or libya anyway and chad has lots of other options). That just leaves kenya which makes it makes it pretty easy to move south from there and loop your way back up. Controlling the nile river is probably the most important place in the game. You can easily fit in with an african based coalition or a middle eastern one and it's nice to have options. I'm a heavy naval player and Israel is one of my favorites because of how easy it is to defend all of its cities and organize stacks of troops quicker. Europe, africa, and asia usually make their own coalitions and Israel is that sweet spot in the middle that can easily fit in with any of them. I prefer Israel over Japan by far because it's easier to find allies and your troops are all close together. Playing as japan is easy for sure, but I like to have some land neighbors to take over quickly in the beginning of the game for a nice head start because crossing oceans is so slow. I never go for any pacific island nations for that reason.

I agreed that US is needing great player because when I play as US, I been attacked by Mexico, Canada and Cuba that formed one coalition that been called as Anti USA. I just in and tomorrow, I been invaded. I think I'm good with Russia because I won my solo game with this nation by invading all neighbors. It need many times to build navy, infantry, support and air. I use 10 helicopters, Bombers, Tanks and Missile Theater System to invade Belarus, Ukraine, Kazakhstan in one time. It cost me many sacrifices to stay online. Right now, I'm becoming Morocco and I producing air and naval to invade Spain after this. For me, best nation is: 1-Vietnam (Strategic, near with Paracel) 2-China(Big nations and rich too) 3-North Korea (I can conquer East side) 4-Iraq (rich with rare matetials) 5- Germany ( I can have many tanks and Multiple Rocket Launcher and I capture France, Italy, Sweden, Czech and Austria in one time) 😁😁😁😁 You got my likes and subscribe. Thanks for the vid. I watch many if your vids. Keep up😎!

Yesterday I started my first game with Norway, which is awful too because it’s literally pushed into the sea by Sweden. Now I’ve conquered half Sweden, Jamtland and Denmark, and Reykjavik has fallen. I think I’m doing good

I played with russia it was quite annoying to move troops but i attacked every neighbor at the same time and ended up winning with 3k points lol Edit: i also joined a game where austria had a coalition with france and both ended up with 2k points austria conquered even australia xD

One of my favourite nations to play is Sweden because if you have one or two allies in Europe you can roll whole Europe over and think about Asia fast

I played Spain in flashpoint as my first game and nation and it went pretty well cause Spain is far from many countries and it’s easier to protect your borders. I managed to invade countries all around the country and won by coalition. Do you know any good game modes for beginner players between WW3, WW3 4x, rising tides, rising tides 4x. WW3 apocalypse, Cold War

I find that Bolivia is actually quite fun to play if you know what you're doing most of the time I take chile or Argentina sometimes Brazil if he is low level but I don't think it is really that bad for experienced player

If you're Japan, you should ally with the Koreas to take China, Mongolia, and Russia. While they build up their army, you should have a large naval and air force, so that later, you can just leave the coalition and destroy their cities without risking ground forces. Then you can take North America and the Pacific, and ally with some money spenders. I did that, and the only reason why I was always in third place was that two money spenders (who later became my allies) where in first and second place.

Absolutely the best CoN KZfaq channel! My favorite start country is Colombia

I’m using Japan currently is it ok if I focus on air and sea units

Players who play as Austria always do well if you can get a good coalition they can be a game winner

Ok I understand South Africa but chad or you can be correct I have to try playing chad

I once played with a guy who played as Bolivia, he conquered all of the 2 Americas

What about India?

I like the strategic position of Gibraltar for the UK. Allows for decent entry into mainland Europe through Spain, or short travel to Africa.

Im second

I usually played Germany, India, Chad, Saudi Arab , USA and Brazil. I won 15 from last 20 games and those 5 games were with other nations or on other maps. I play solo about first 20 playdays to recognize who is who. Ofcource you can see it on building, stats from first day. But my experience say me not to join to early. Nobody try to attack me because of my ranking and I just always research for players and take out weakest one. I think one of important things is ability to recognize who you fight and who you play together plus diplomacy. Username AlfredJung

“The first thing you do as Australia is to conquer New Zealand” me as New Zealand who conquered Australia

I am surprised Argentina isn't one of the top five. It's such a nice place to conquer from. It's almost the same as South Africa.

8:48 Just in the game because in real life if someone touch in will see what are ICBM 😂

when i was playing my first match i choose poland and attacked Ukraine and made Peace after a while then Russia was attacked by all sides and me being stupid i thought he was attacking all of them so i produced infantry and armored units and placed them near Ukraine and declared war on them and just AFk i kinda forgot about it and when i checked it i was worried as they took Warsaw,lublin and lviv and lost nearly every unit so i desperately begged for mercy and thankfully they settled for peace after realizing i was a very new which was nice of him and offered an alliance so i did and i learnt many things. And thank you for helping me choose which nation i should choose

I played usa one time I was wiped out on day 5 because I attacked Mexico and then Canada attacked a right in the middle of a war with Mexico

Thank you for all of the advise you got me back into the game and I think you are the best con utuber

I think its hard or even you can't win if you play in solo, because once a coalition team notices you that you are a threat on them in the future then their eyes are on you and ended up attacks you in a sudden at the same time in every corner. I mean, luck is all you need if you want to win in solo or better join in a winning coalition.

I think north Korea is the hardest nation to use due to it's extremely small size and china Russia japan and south korea Looking at it, if you can't take the lead and make a perfect start you won't even get past 100 victory points. Also Thailand between Myanmar and Vietnam while having jungle terrains unless you instantly conquer one of those 2 you will lose

My favorites in this order Brazil Italy UK New Zealand (So far away from everyone and well protected if you team up with the aussies and the Philippines)

I don't think you're helping the players who chose Chad for now you attract attention to Chad to it's neighbours,but still thanks for the video,it was very helpful for me and my friends😁🤝

Good info keep up the awesome work

10:10 I started as Austria and actually won the game. It was very difficult to play without our allies. My 1st victory was also with Austria.

watched a few of ur vids stumbled across this today and also just won first game with Belarus today with coalition of mongolia and thailand, 3 man too! have to say i either disagree bc ive seen it done firsthand or maybe im just a god at the game i dont know but regardless great vid man great channel :)

I’m playing in 4x with bolivia, I made a coalition with Peru and venezuela. I conquered chile and Paraguay yesterday and we are taking Brazil right now and share with the coalition so everyone gets a bit of it. Then we are going south to Argentina and bam South America is ours. In another 4x I choosed South Africa, in a coalition with Mali/Chad/kenya and Mozambique, it’s going pretty well

Bro I had Serbia my first game and I’m still playing this and Serbia is actually really good.

Having more neighbours doesn’t make the nation hard to play with if you aask me. Tbh if you are focusing for a coalition win, top 5 nations are : 1 5. USA 4.INDIA 3.EGYPT 2.JAPAN 1.GERMANY Worst 5s are : 5.THAILAND 4.BRAZIL 3.SAUDI 2.SWEDEN 1.CUBA (JUST MY XP)

i played Austria and i played it with Italy(my brother), France ( my friend) we dominated that game we had all of the europe i started invading serbia and then romania and poland, I invaded russia and Finland. That game was so beautiful

Bro said on day 33 i was like nah i only play times 4 *gets calculator* yes i only have to wait 8.25 days to control the pacific

Hi Me and my friends(level 98) comprised a list of the 5 best and worst countries. We are in a top 30 alliance and here is our opinion, in alphabetical order five best and worst nations. Let's start with the 5 worst: the power countries that are big 1 Brazil 2- China 3 India 4- Russia 5 United States. The five best countries to use 1- England best Island nation and nation to use in Europe 2- Japan- best Island nations in Asia to use 3- Mexico- Best kept secret in the Americas 4-Colombia- One of the best South American nations to use 5- Germany, one of the best Euro nations to use. We all agree that England and Germany are the best countries for beginners to utilize.

you were so right about south africa, i won with south africa in a coalition. as you say, you only need to go north and you can take whole of africa if you are in a strong coalition !!

I got Romania it is very good I think because you have small countries all around and arstotzka and you have 6 cities and a port but if you conquer arstotzka you'll have 2 ports and 7 cities

I won with United KINGDOM IB my first game. You need to focus on the navy and airforce. Then you focus on troops. Same as go for Irland and Iceland.

Thank you for the tutorial. Your knowledge is worth it !

i’m playing as bolivia and i just took American and most of the canadian city’s still going strong with my south American coalition

I play Flashpoint Europe rn, i formed an alliance with Austria (im playing as Czech republic). We grew strong together, France joined us. Its about 2 weeks from start, almost all of Europe is conquered.

Philippines is OP, with Navy on day 11, I am China. We have a team, we all need to avoid any conflict with them. I am about to make cruisers, day 11. I think this game can be so stressful, I think of any game only because of disappointments in pick up games, with random teammates. It also gives people insomnia, cause it runs 24/7 and some people are too competitive, this can lead to sleepless times. I started a 1x game, forgot the eclipse is 1 month away. This game will never be finished in 1 month, I never should have started the game if I am going out of town.

My new favourite nation is New Zealand. You only need like 11 cruisers to defend the whole country (if you have Australia conquered) otherwise only 9 cruisers

Another thing that needs to be taken into account is the human element ... A lot of people are gonna hate on countries like Russia, Israel, Iran, USA, N. Korea ect.. So playing with those countries is extra hard .. Conversely playing as most european states and some south american and asian ones usually leads to better coalitions that win the game.. Coalitions matter so so much and they are usually not random.. Im not gonna rank them but Canada, Cuba, Brazil, Argentina, South Africa, Ethiopia, Spain, UK, Norway, Finland, Germany, Italy, Serbia, Romania , Belarus, Saudi, Japan, Philippines, and Australia have really good and strong positions While USA, Columbia, Peru, Bolivia , Chile, most african countries, most of the middle east, Russia, the Korea's , France, Austria, and Greece have really hard positions ... If I had to rank a top 5 it would be 1. Brazil 2. Finland 3. Italy 4. Japan 5. Australia * I consistently notice that Brazil is a superpower every other game 5 hardest to play 1. Russia 2. Israel 3. China 4. Bolivia 5. Greece Ive only ever seen Russia make it to the end and as an ally out of these 5 nations..oh and I just won as Greece with my main ally being Austria ... Another hard nation lol.. But I'm a baller lol

Israel is also a very difficult country! You are a target of all your neighbors and also still very small. You have only 4 cities and most of the time you have to motorize first because if you attack Lebanon you can split your country and if you attack Jordan you have even more neighbors who want you.

Austria is actually good now because if you reach a good rapport with some big nation like germany or poland you can easily conquer the smallest like slovakia

This man keeps this game alive 👊 Respect ✊ my guy
