Roman Empire in 1936 By Blood Alone - Hoi4 Italy Speedrun Commentary

- Hoi4 Roman Empire Speedrun, and it's the last one. But I was too obsessed with it. I just had to give it another go.
I won't play Italy in Hearts of Iron IV for a while and instead take on some other challenges. I still have some strategies on my mind that didn't break with version 1.12 and the DLC By Blood Alone. And some new ones as well. The new peace conference system as well as other changes to the game makes some new shenanigans possible that I will definitely make use of.
Stay tuned!

Unedited run: • Roman Empire Speedrun ...
Music: Hearts of Iron IV Soundtrack - Hry
![The MOST Underappreciated ROMAN PATH!? [HOI4]](/img/n.gif)
I didn't do as much editing and visuals this time. Let me know how it turned out!
I think is good overall. The focus is Roman speedrun but would be nice to have things like the mentioned buggy transport planes expanded upon. Perhaps adding a short explanatory text or linking to another video about the topic in the corner of the screen (i annotation icon) or in the description.
That is mental how powerful Italy is without realising it for me
No unnecessary blabla and right to the point. I absolutely love it. That's why I subscribed to you.
I am here to learn exploits and strats on Hoi4. You explained it well and i will try to replicate this new strat to form Rome myself :-)
You reached a great balance, and thanks a lot for providing the unedited version, just in case.
This guy does to the clauswits engine ai like neo does to the matrix
Rome wasn't built in a day, it was built in 26 minutes.
BEANZ
Good comment, did laugh.
Tell Musk that
Yes
"Mussolini wake up, they've landed on Sicily"
Relatable
Germany watching Europe fall before even taking Austria is funny to me.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂
This guy can form the Roman Empire in 26 minutes twice while I'm still stuck trying to win a scenario where the Axis wins... in general.
Pro tip: just ignore the english channel and get medium **p a n z e r**
Usa is also just soviet union x 2, invading will incite sounds you have never heard from your pc
21 width infantry, concentrate fleet for a naval invasion to cap uk
@@doctorothoni prefer using naval bombers combined with my fleet to bait theirs out. If you have air superiority you can damage their fleet enough to gain naval superiority
@@SnakeInAShoe sometimes that’s needed depends on who you’re playing
Mussolini waking up on January 1st 1936 realizing Ethiopia ain't important then turning to casually rebuilding the roman empire before the end of October
100% Historical Focus Tree let's go
The fully cored empire would be fun to see, I haven't seen anyone do it yet
Considering he already has cores on UK, France and the Mediterranean. He should be able to take over the rest of Europe rather easily. With all cores of the Roman Empire he has similar amount of manpower as China does while having more industry than late game USA does. He can now do a world conquest without problems. Basically infinite manpower and weapons.
It’s really easy, I got everything apart from Germany (the last one) by 1941 and I’m just an average player. I’m sure if I could be bothered I could also beat up germany
Do it as democratic Italy and you get EU cores as well
i got fully cored roman empire besides saudi arabia by dec 37 and i messed up and lost about 6 months so it can be easily done mid 37@@7XQO
@@lais9612 ofc it can lol but I'm not a speedrun player lmao. I'm not fast enough for those kinds of runs
Thanks for making this video, 26 minutes is insane. I really enjoyed learning about how the new peace deal mechanics are working.
The small touches you add really improve the videos! I love the supplemental info you give!
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoy it!
Lots of interesting points, great game. That's really efficient strategy. Now, I'd be interested how you could achieve world conquest from there. It took me until 1944 (in 1.12.5), you probably cut at the very least one year by rushing mare nostrum. Of course, I had issue with stabilizing the resistance / recruiting troops. Cheers.
half of europe gets cored if going full roman empire and the rest shouldn't be much of a problem since he had australia and parts of canada which is the main bottleneck of a world conquest.
@@pietervanderzwaan4295 try it, you’ll see that also struggling with resistance isn’t simple feat. Note that I’m talking annexing all countries, not just puppeteering
I'll cover that in my next video!
I like how the devs nuked your wargoal/unassigning units naval invasion cheese strat but they still haven't taught the British AI to defend itself.
edits are so nice and clean. love ur vid keep up!
Literally just stumbled upon this video and I liked it. Very insightful, even If I don't prefer to take as much territory as you did in the peace deals.
The editing of the video is so good!
Awesome video very interesting and informative great sound quality and just an overall great video.
Got it. Forgot to justify on Greece, didn't want resistance getting out of hand so I got garrisons back up, got stuck in a weapons shortage pit, the Carlists rose up before I could get Franco taken care of, but at the end of the day this was super effective. Definitely got a sub outta me for this one.
Bro, really great job !
Fully cored roman empire run sounds fun to watch :)
Can be anything more cursed than Mussolini with a laurel on his head? XD
C'est Parfait, je ne l'aurai pas cru si je l'aurai pas vu !! Un grand merci ! j'en veux d'autres. Merci !!
Great video illustration new mechanics and tactics. I gotta try a couple
really cool video dude!
Gonna try it out! great vid
good video, i'd love to see the fully cored speedrun too!
definitely would be interested in seeing all of the territorial claims met
Brilliant video. Definitely sticking around for more :)
i don't speedrun, but damn this was fun to watch, keep it going!
As sun zu said yeet or get yeeted
Nice content. Subscribed
Impressive, very nice
bro you should be narrating a documentary with that voice
Aww, thank you!
Wow, Incredible bro
Welcome back
Nicely done
bro you just did roman Empire in 26 minutes while i tryd it in the last 7 hours and germany had to take turkey...... i had to try to take him be he didnt let me and i just left....... i really learned alot how thank you veeery much i will try some of youre ideas and train more. im kinda a new player but understand alot things in the game. i have like 400 game hours or 200 but for real for some players thats nothing..... whatever thank you for the tipps they look very good.
i hope we will see the fully cored mare nostrum video some day
you are so skilled, i'd like to play at least half as good as you
thx ! it was amazing ! I dis it tonight ! Awsome !
Absolutely smashing
great guide
Dude, wtf
Completely epic
Flawless Victory
Just earned a sub!!
Welcome aboard! Happy to have you =)
amazing video
Spectacular, tried it out with slightly changes for are more long-term game, worked as intended, early 37 I would have gotten it....don't forget Corsika.
To rise tension you can also enter and exit axis. It doesn't work by itself if you try to reach the full 25 but if you justify on the US and also do that you can reach the UK gurantee limit and declare war in time to justify also on spain(i think late may) and capitulate them in the first war (just like in the old tutorial)
That's a great idea! Thanks for sharing =)
It's been a while but I finally got around to using this tension spike method. Would you mind if I show this comment and your username during the commentary?
@@m3an ofc thanks
this is insane
Insane run man, I thought it was clickbait. :D :D
Ohh yeahh i made the shoutouts! Cool video!
Neat. Good job.
I heavily based my playthrough of the Pope's roman empire on this video.
Balance of power and timing were tough, but I made it.
Thank you
I wish we could get a video on a world conquest following this
Well, you know how it is with wishes. Sometimes they might actually become true ;-)
Begging you to make a holy roman and an empire achievement speedrun as I've been attempting to use this guide for it but have had much less luck than you've had in this video!!!
I'll put it on the list =) Don't have much time at the moment, but will give it a shot soon.
Excellent!
Cant wait to watch
Hy
I am doing a german game and used some of your tactics you explained in this great video.
But for me the UK doesn’t guarantee yugoslavia. World tension is above 25% and they do guarantee other countries I justify against but not yugoslavia. Any Idea why this is not happening?
I am on 1.12.6 version
very video 👍
Very very)))
Much alot 😁
would love to see a fully cored run
Oh wow! That was very fast!
I wonder: is it possible to use cavalry viably for any offense in the game? I've tried it a few times in the past, but they weren't very successful. How would you design a cavalry division to be any use?
Commenting just to give some extra credit. Solid video.
Great run, also easy to replay yourself. I've tried to turn this into a papal state run (maybe achievements, too), but you'll sit on the 100% BoP to the right after the Britain/Albania war even after deposing Mussolini. Winning the war will even bring him back as he isn't removed from the BoP. Additionally the balance reset from 'Seeking papal support' only works if the BoP is on the left side. If only there was a way to prevent BoP changes through war results...
I managed to get it going by losing control over some core provinces during the war against Yugoslavia. With some timing you'll get 0% BoP after seeking papal support and up to 65% papal support soon after with the focuses and a hierarch advisor.
Allow all your provinces to be taken, always take decisions to more the BoP to the Left and then every year you can take a papal decision to move it further to the left. Usually Conquered the world before the Pope returns
absolutely bokers dude
Indeed a full cored roman empire would be really nice
in the beginning it says "intermediate knowledge is strongly advised"
- so where do I get that intermediate knowledge?
(preferrably you can send me the way of a video instead of a wiki)
For normal people, they’d spend over an hour building up a massive industry and revamping their infantry templates and making a larger navy. But you have bypassed all of that and just shat on all the largest HOI content creators. Yet I could not respect you more.
Try obsessive real time days, entire weekends, ruined relationships, etc. This guy does to the clauswits engine ai like neo does to the matrix.
Nice vid
good job!.)))
well done
This man has done it again!
thank you ~~
You lose Ethopia but you form Roman Empire,it is worth it
thank youuuuuuuuuuuu
You are genius
I've tried this a few times now. I do the war in Ethiopia and get to the UK pretty quickly, usually within a week of your timeline. But every time I capitulate the UK, Canada becomes the allies leader and I'm stuck
Hmm. That shouldn't happen, but I haven't tried in the recent patch. I'll give it a spin later to see if anything changed.
ty was able to get it in november although it as my first time doing this army transport ship thingy
Is it still possible to form the HRE early. If so could you do a video about that
Best tutorial im srsly, 1000x better than most streamers how smart can someone be😂 and its very fast only 26 minutes, ill still conquer the rest and how did you stop the ethiopian war?
Thank you! To abandon the war with Ethiopia, simply pull back your divisions so that their units can take territory. The decision costs 15pp.
can confirm still works, thanks bro! just did holy roman and an empire
UK did not to Albania's independence tho
@@B4sicKnowledge you prob didnt inflate the World tention enough
I've played this game for a while but I'm still pretty much a noob. Does France automatically surrender if Paris is occupied?
Omfg ive just wasted 5 hours of my life through countless playthroughs to get this but i keep messing up ahhhh
You'll get there eventually =) Good luck! Hit me up if you need help.
It was going perfecty until I forgot to delete the fall back line order when invading UK so as soon as I made it to Hull all my other troops went back into Germany which gave Britain enough time to push back
I don't dig speedrunning for my own playthroughs, but it is fun to watch. Funny this popped up just today, since I'm in the middle of a Roman Empire run myself. Instead of going fast, I play like a rat, trying to pick up whatever territories I can in ahistorical mode without waking up any majors until I'm good and ready to beat them in a stand-up fight. When Britain flips commie, that makes things much easier because it stops guaranteeing minors and it releases all its colonies, usually as free states. The only other variable for me now is whether Germany manages to found Vichy France, since I leave most NS nations on historical settings.
I make it even harder on myself too with my own personal restrictions on play. I can never declare on a European nation directly unless it is communist, with the exception of Spain and Portugal, or countries which hold my cores (So I could start The Troubles as Ireland, for example.) And I must form my own faction if at all possible. No piggy-backing on the Axis to pick up territories I want or need.
Will you be doing a new Germany taking out the allies speed run? With the new update?
Eventually, yes. But I want to play some other nations first.
Any chance for a Pope driven Roman empire run, probably can't be done as speedily. Haven't seen anyone do this one yet though and I've tried
That's a nice speedrun, i wonder why britain is always undefended, they barely have trops there and almost all their navy is concentrated in the English channel lol
3:46 well shit didn't know that was a thing.
bro is pro
new patch fixes a bug regarding tension and justification "- World Threat will now correctly build and decay from the fabrication of claims" do you know what this problem was ? will it make the run quicker or slower now?
I talk about that when explaining the changes to tension. Up until the patch from today which was in beta already for a while, tension was not generated if you justified during war time. And no, doesn't make a difference to the strategy.
idk if it is because of a new patch, but conquering england just doenst work, especially with the garbage cav divisions, i get london and 90% cap, but never manage to conquer them since they always have enough troops around brisol and liverpool and never leave them unlike u said. after some time they get enough units to push my garbage back sadly. tried it twice now and its really frustrating
Same thing happened with me maybe we meed to delay it a month after changing the cavalry back to infantry i m goin to try it this way
is it possible to do this run as the papacy? like if we delay a few months to convert to the pope will the justifications and all that still work? just trying to see if the holy, roman, and an empire achievement can be done quick
Haven't tried, main issue is that Pope makes Italy non-aligned which kills the 80% justification reduction that fascist nations get when at war with a major. You'd have to do the conquest with Mussolini without taking focuses that lock you out of the Pope path and only work your way through it after taking the relevant territories.
@@m3an that’s what i was thinking, i’ll test it out when i get back to my computer but i think it should work, albeit just a little bit delayed, but i don’t think that’ll cause any issues and it only adds a few additional focuses, since going down the “despose mussolini” path will get rid of all the power mussolini has making the transition easier, i’ll keep you updated on how the run goes
@@wboender Good luck! Looking forward to the results =)
@@m3an okay it took a lot longer than expected, being at war puts the balance of power solidly in mussolini’s favor, had to do a ton of waiting and clicking balance of power decisions before i could even get to deposing him
Why didn't Italy just do this irl?? So incompetent
first reaction: bbbbbrrrrrrrrrrruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
i thought my 1937 Roman Empire Strategy was good..... i must try this out, this is amazing and hilarious at the same time, GG WP , GG WP
Nice
Doesn’t work can’t get naval superiority on home islands ever.
I'm facing the same issue right now
do you think its possible to do this via the pope path? Been wanting to try and get 5 of the Italy achievements in a single game which would mean going pope.
Well. For the conquest part of things, you don't need any of the focuses I took. You can do the conquest first and than go whatever political direction you fancy.
@@m3an Awesome stuff. Once i figure a good trmplate for china border wars since BBA seem to change stuff i might try and follow this
Couldn’t you get all your justifications then flip ideology?
Patch 1.12.8 gives the AI some brain so that they won't guarantee if they are in no place of defending others, and minor countries won't join a faction if joining would result in going down with the faction leader. Can't wait to see your new strategy around that.
Didn't read anything about that in the patch notes. Do you have a source on that so I can read into it or was that something the devs slipped in?
@@m3an Unfortunately, the AI behavior change mentioned above is NOT documented. The devs have made undocumented changes before so it is nothing new. You will have to see it in action. Just reproduce the steps in this video and you will see less powerful Allies leader not guaranteeing others and minor nations not joining Allies
@@EnduringGamer I'm rather concerned now about the video I have currently in editing 😕
@@m3an Maybe do a quick experiment to see whatever mechanism you use in the new video still work? Smallest experiment I did was to play Germany and use nocb command on the UK at the very beginning.
@@EnduringGamer So, I did some testing and I did not get the same findings. They still all just brainlessly join factions, no matter the strength or surrender progress.
My man, how in the flying f r i c k you get so much war score ? Last time i tried i fought UK, France, all uk dominons and with 90% war participation paradox was like: the best i can do, is one Island of Malaysia (there are two)
Solo conquests don't have this issue, since your total score isn't divided into rounds, province cost don't increase, etcpp. If viable, I would always try to avoid shared conferences.
If you would have annexed the British navy before you take land. Then you'll face this issue. I've faced this too.
Why did youform new airwings from the stockpile?
Hmm yes lore of rome speedruns momentum 100
Full Roman Empire please!!
