    Today on Hearts of Iron 4 we'll be continuing the scenario on the Great Kerfuffle Redux mod from a couple of weeks ago where as France I was locked in a stalemate for years. Can I somehow break free and capitulate Germany?

    Hey ! Nicely done. U also could micro more instead of battleplanning. It wastes your equipment and manpower. U need to make attack specific provinces (mainly plains) from many directions, aiming to do encirclements. If u did 40 withds, u could do that and it would be like knife through butter. Spamming 20 withds isn’t as effective as doing small amounts of 40 withds. But in general u did very good, comrade Alex

    Could be the Iron Storm alternate history world, where WW1 lasts until the 1960's because Sturnberg killed Trotsky in battle, destroyed the Bolsheviks and made a Russo-Mongol Empire fueled by zealotry to their divine emperors. Nukes have not yet been invented in this world but the game starts off with rumors of a "super weapon" being developed by the Russian Mongols and your character is supposed to find it deep into enemy lines.

    I wonder what the difference is between Rambler and other Hoi4 youtubers that he is so afraid to say words like War and other words like that, but the others aren't all that concerned? I mean ISP says these things all the time and he seems to be doing fine.
    I know its because CZcams has a thing against certain words, but I cannot believe that all of the words he is trying to avoid are all banned on youtube. I mean, I dont mind the odd Kerfuffle but it is a bit weird to hear him read the descriptions and then stop when he comes to certain words so he can think of something else to say.
