*Pain, pure pain*
Agreed
Pain train
@@viclorenzo5016 finally a worthy opponent
Im thw first here

Alex:" They could have bombed a German city but not they bombed Prague instead, thanks America."
The Bomber crew That flew off course: "Seems German enough to me."
"Everything in Europe looks the same" - americans
They accidentally did this to switzerland a couple times, obviously not with nukes lol
Prague is rightfully German
I recently did a Nationalist Spain playthrough with nothing but cavalry and i must say it actually went very great. Having fast units on the whole front meant that the whole enemy front was vulnerable to breakthroughs. Wherever I broke the enemy defences immediately my cavalry would rapidly funnel in through the gaps and take territory, while the enemy would have a hard time patching up the holes in its frontlines. Basically blitzkrieg with horses. Didn't even need to build a airforce.
Lol
Lol. I invaded afghanistan with nothing but cavalry as the USSR
idk what i expected
Afghanistan is a pain to invade due to all the mountains and bad supply. And you do need some kind of artillery to boost the soft attack. Just like you add art to infantry likewise you need to add art to cavalry
@@PadaV4 Late game USSR Is really painful even trying to take ANY country in the first place, either france or the UK guarantees them and I have to end up using commands to remove their guarantee because its so annoying having to deal with the AI.
@@greenbeepm just build soviet navy xd or airforce
But i get it invading uk or usa in 1945 is painful
Remember kids :
When the wave gets mowed down by the enemies guns, the correct way to handle the situation is
*send another wave, they only have so many bullets.*
"Cavalry is king"
I thought I would never hear those words spoken by Alex
Hey, at least it starts with an "C" ;-)
Yes, but they can go through the Ardennes...
cant wait for the ww1 artillery only challenge
Oh god. YES
Railway gun only or no balls
Alex: horses can swim right?
Meanwhile in 1815
Napoleon: where are my horses
Alex is making the same mistake as napoleon did what a couisidence
>"I'm not like those ww1 leaders"
> Imeadiately does a Italian Gallipoli
Challenge lol
“Mediterranean Soup”
Control Gibraltar, The Suez, and the Bosporus Strait by 1942
Rules:
Must play as a Minor nation, and Turkey does count but if you do play as Turkey, you cannot ever lose the Strait. If you do, your run ends.
To prevent silly paradrops and quick naval invasion wins, you must hold them all at the same time for at least a month in-game.
Ofc if you do see this, you can mess with these rules and add some as you see fit. I’m not a CC, so I have way less insight into how this challenge may be exciting to an audience.
If you try it, good luck!

This is not that hard with turkey going ottomans or just with germany
Your biggest issue to solve will be capitulating uk so u can take those in peace deal or somehow make spain join axis so u can invade through them and then ask for gibraltar
(If u do the achievement as otomans take paris rome london and tokyo then there is guide from bittersteel that guide guarantees succes in this challenge as well)
Also spain or portugal are good choices for this
I’ve been trying to get the achievement with napoleon, and I’ve lost to Germany every time, like 20+ times. Alex goes ahead and beats them with ww1 equipment

Alex doing a non monarcist playthrough is basically like saying the moon is falling.
Alex can’t help himself, he must do all monarchist playthroughs
All cavalry is actually quite strong, I used it to get many achievements such as taking out USA as Canada, it's easier with 60 fast units than 12 good but slow ones
Bonapartist and backwards-defensive is cursed. Pétain would be a good fit
When WWI France does better than WWII France in WWII
Portable radio for soldiers was implemented in 1941 though, so no signal company for you.
Ah typical France, always fighting the present war like the previous one
I think perhaps they didn't have portable, two-way radios in WWI, but they did have radio technology and large transmitters in WWI. I think they probably relied more on telegraph and telephones than radios even if they did have the ability to deploy battlefield radios.
Pretty sure he is using the equipment of capitulated countries. He forgot to only allow the ww1 equipment in the equipment button for the divisions.
There was actually some paratroop action in WW1. Very little in the end of the war
Hey Alex! Could you do an invasion on a country guide. Im a New player and its quite confusing. Thanks!
He has tutorial vids on here, check them out and you might find out what you are trying to!
@@dayshiftatfools.1443 just dont lose
Look up a channel called "Pydgin"
He does some damn good tutorials for new players. Short, understandable and to the point.
Welcome to the hoi4 community Btw.
The best easy to understand guy is probably imo feedbackgaming, Alex is cool but hes not the best trainer
I could imagine if the video weren’t edited
actually I can’t
"You wanna play Germany? I can play" as hundreds of men are being shredded to pieces
"not upgrading"
Literally secretly upgrades,and dose epic gamer moments
when u take "victors of the great war" to another level
Nothing works better than good old whistle blow.
Every Hoi4 game is a challenge for Alex....
Ok but so true
1:25 hi again matt :). Obviously his favorite twitch chat member
We just got Alexrolled 0:23
Also, they did have bombers. They even had zeppelin (airship) bombers. But they didn't have bombers at the start. I'm not sure they even had fighters at the start. At first, at least many/most pilots had to try to shoot at each other with handguns, and had to drop grenades and other small regular or improvised ordnance by hand to try to bomb people.

It's not even where actual Kashubia is😅
Loving Lyon’s little hi message. Perfect 4th wall break

There's the Art of War and then there's the good ole Rambler Try and that perhaps is a vastly superior novel then the art of war every time.
Do a Slowenien empire. (Defed germaney and the UK.)
That would be not very possible
@@kacper0563 it’s definitely possible. Just not fun. Or worth it.
You want a challenge? Equestria at War mod, play as Dread League and win. Or not even this, just dont die too quickly
Finally someone does the WWI challenge. Truly this is the path of glory!
When Alex said WW1 instead of World War 1 A part inside of me died
He said that probably because of demonetisation.
I wanted to suggest strategy, because I remember the vid of the USSR disaster save, only tank army.
But to make it more difficult, only tanks, no mobile infantry in the template or such, just tanks, and some support companies
I am curious at how bad or good it could go
i mean sssr could win with virtually any dumb strat, 2 w inf even probably, they are just that op
We should just have one video that's fully unedited
WW1 Equipment Alex is the best Alex.
I've wanted someone to do a challenge like this forever
I love how lopsided Alex's glasses are for the entirety of this video.

ISP STILL WANTS A SIGNED POSTER WITH UR FACE ON IT!!!
germanys blitz was mostly horses, more than you would think anyways
You could do this challenge with the The Great war mod and start at the 1936 scenario for more pain
I searched for ww1 equipment only and found that this video was uploaded only 6 hours ago
How convenient
When is the 2 width division only challenge
I quiet enjoy the monarchist playthroughs
cavalry is the new meta i did it with non aligned germany
They didnt have radio, just field telephones with long lines
well that must be pain
man we got Alex rolled
Should’ve done it with germany i think its harder that way
One word, *HUSSARS*
Calveley is KING!
Not enough mustard gas.
Alex your great you got me into HOI4 thanks
we should be able to always see the chat for these vids tbh
Cavalry isn’t bad but they have not so much organization like infantry. They are faster but lesser organized. Bikers are king everything is like infantry but they have 6.4 speed. Camels are pros fast like bikers and have more Defence and organization. I use bikers but I will use camels.

Is ww1 the new meta
Alex: no
So they didn't have radios but I believe the theory behind radios had been made but not yet proven. They used telegram wires sparingly because of the tendency for shells to sever the wires, or people would sneak back and cut the wires (although that happened sparingly) they most used messages by horse, and when it was necessary by foot.
AlextheRambler don’t pick the monarchist path challenge (IMPOSSIBLE!!)
Absolutely loved the ending here 😂
Well we Polish always had known that the Calveley is BEST, why you think we have the Hussars!?
We had this game played out years ago....
Interesting scenario
Best rambler shirt so far.
His glasses seem to have gone through WW1, so crooked 🤌
Horse-krieg? Cheveau-krieg? Pferd de geurre?
And it was this video I realized I wasn’t subscribed and had to fix that.
Bikes only.
I wanna make sure that you know that I support your Hawaiian shirts
I once had a unit with cavrly, artillary and infantry together
So basically, a historically accurate unit
Real life be like
The US did bomb Prague, though ostensibly by accident. Forty of the 500+ B-17s dropped their loads on Prague during the Dresden firebombing in Feb of '45.
I'm so pissed you didn't take Luenberger and mad border gore.....
France really is the best choice for this based on Thier tactics
Cavalry has and always will be king
i love horses
well it was a fun one (for us) thanks Alex ;)
Your fans are both supportive of you, and yet trash you on twitch chat
Good video
Now let's not be ghastly to the Germans.
is WW1 the new meta?
NO.
how can i change what kind of equipment my division is using?
this is the first time i see the ption 2:24
He should try to win as Germany without doing any research what every he has researched is what he has to work with
Sounds like a fun one!
Day 4 of requesting Alex The Rambler never sings "when push comes to shove" ever again
OI!
play as Mongolia and conquer all of Mexico.
The French: “Hurrah, the British are coming! We’re saved!”
The Americans: “Shoot, the British are coming! We’re fricked!”
Just commenting as instructed
Wow
Please do a Slovenia game
C.A.S is king
Cavalry
Always
Superior
IRL challenge
Win the WW2 without producing any equipment
Rimmy did that challenge a while back.
I blame Twitch chat. CZcams forever
Hi
Hello
Isn't this just what they did IRL??
I'm joking btw so don't go smart ass on me
can someone explain how to play germany? cuz im new
Im new but a strategy is fo do the 4 years pland and justify on poland and Belgium as early as possible before the build up and in 1938 invade France and bomb the British fleet hope this helps just ask for more info
Can you spell ,a bottle of water, for me please?😅😅
Interwar =/= ww1
