hi, dev here, there's actually a lot of content post-war so it is definitely worth sticking around! You will eventually be able to renounce the truce, lose post war economy and from then on you can kind of have a sandbox game, but there is a lot of other stuff you could do such as intervening in the inevitable British/French Civil Wars (I'm the UK dev so I put a lot of love into the British Revolution haha, they even load 2 new focus trees), there can also be diplomatic crises over for example the Suez Canal, Africa and India so I can definitely say we have very much put stuff in to make it worth playing post-war
That's really good to know! I'll give it a try next time!
When are the diplomatic crises happening? Are they only for the 1910 scenario or both, I have recently played historical US in the 1914 scenario up until 1936 and I have played Germany(Kaiserreich post war path) in 1914 several times too but in both there weren't diplomatic crises
Fifth Rome UK path is the most cursed but one of my favorites
That is really good to know!
Give it a try next time!@@Bitt3rSteel
@@ivrugethey aren't guaranteed to happen, a lot of it is RNG or dependent on what the AI decides to do. For example Ottomans can demand Egypt, Germany can either allow them to invade in return for resources or outright refuse, if they refuse and Ottomans invade anyway there can be a little proxy war there
I think howitzers are nerfed now and cost more, artillery is better in all aspects
Yeah, that'sy experience after this run
@@Bitt3rSteelI was asking around on their discord page and the mods said the German AI is currently being fixed because the entente is just too powerful
@@targaryenedits the German AI was bugging were it would move all of its troops off the russian front and then back onto the front and it was really dumb lol
@@AnotherRandomPerson993 yeh happened to me 4 times in a single game and also the German ai refuses to surrender , so recently I have been fighting the entente till 1921 with 30 million casualties 😂
Yeah I used them a lot but they are crap now
How to get Conrad-von-Hötzendorf path: Get to army question crisis - Choose abdication of Franz Joseph I in favor of Ferdinand and make sure he doesnt die - Pick the focus towards trialism but DO NOT DESTROY HUNGARIAN OPPOSITON - Every time they protest practicly ignore and supress them - When Hungary decleres intendepence event should pop up if Hötzendorf should assume power accept - MAKE SURE YOU WIN THE CIVILWAR - After that you get event if Hötzendorf should stay in power - Now you can play as a military state under Hötzendorf.
I hope this will help anyone somehow.
Hotzendorf and his military genius will surely prevail over Cadorna at the Isonzo!
@@Bitt3rSteel Cadorna's a dumbass so that cant be too hard
thankyou man ive been going crazy on figuring out how
@@Bitt3rSteel the 12th time's the charm!
And do you get a hidden focus tree?
You dont have to give italt that land because france will declare war on germany in 1916 so italy has to defend germany in the war
Sadly, I discovered that... Yeah...
13:57 Minor tips for everyone: You can prevent this from happening if you go down the "Redl's Counter-intelligence Reforms" and "Inspect the Evidenzbureau" after unlocking "Reinforce Gemeinsame Armee" focus.
Thanks, this helped me in my playtrough
“I think this may be the first time a major power has gone to war, won a war, and ended up having less land than it did before” -Bitt3rSteel (after suffering through the headache known as Austria-Hungary) Your videos always make my day! Thanks for being awesome!!!! I can’t wait for that Total War: Napoleon video to come out!
I mean Franco won his war against the Moroccans and gave them the land anyway.
@@johnnotrealname8168 And just at France post-WWII. They won, but technically lost Algeria and Indochina. Speaking of Indochina, while not a major power, that describes how victory was for Ho Chi Minh.
@@emberfist8347 Well militarily they largely won in Algeria but society was disintegrating and keeping the territory began to be meaningless as they were not French (The Algerians were really brutal and arguably killed as many of their own as the French did.). Indochina was similar but was a Conventional War not a Guerilla War. If the U.S. gave more aid then they could have won but yeah.
Austria-Hungary is definitely one of the countries of all time.
Austria-Hungary is indeed one if the countries of all time
@@manno_ut_nitherlanda Yep, it definitely is one of the countries of all time.
I love how they fixed the flag! The Habsburg black-and-gold is a way more historically accurate choice than that civil ensign
As a German natural speaker i have to say your Pronunciation of german terms is pretty much spot on
THANKS FOR PLAYING AUSTRIA!!!!!!
"Wait, so I won and got nothing? But if I lose then lose everything? What?"
Welcome to the Hungarian Experience :D
For the Navy in the Great War Redux mod I would suggest going with a torpedo heavy fleet. Get torpedoes on everything you can. Even the pre-dreadnoughts can be re-fitted to have them. I've played several games as the major powers, including an Italy game where I joined the central powers. Britain has something like 54 battleships at the start and they are no joke. The fleet I crafted was new built destroyers (mostly 1910 type with a few 1916 models in there a bit early) with all the cruisers and battleships refit. It absolutely massacred them. You still take losses and damage. But it's effective.
Also, I hate to say it, but submarines are so ridiculously good in this mod it would be dumb not to build any. There's no planes to take them out, and nothing has depth charges to attack them at the start. Subs are by far and away the most cost effective thing to produce. The Ai will build stuff that can take them out later, but it's just not enough.
I've found it doesn't seem worth it to build new capital ships except as Germany. Ships in production at the start with over 50% not included... No one else both has a need and can build that many. Refitting just seems to be much more cost-effective while remaining simply effective.
The AI doesn't build very good templates or modern capital ships either. So it's not too hard to be better.
As Austria specifically. Refit the battle fleet, don't have them leave the Adriatic, and just build subs after. You should be able to take out the Italian fleet, and the British fleet doesn't tend to go there. So Naval invasions should be possible to avoid. Not that they're especially dangerous in this mod anyway. But still.
"This is probably the first time a major power went to war, won a war, and ended up with less land than it did before." That summaries every major Ally post-WWII with the exception of the Soviet Union and the US due to decolonization. France was particularly victimized by this as Algeria and Indochina were already lost.
To think that Franz could actually win a war...
Bittersteel, have you seen Alex the Ramblers new years update? He looks to be in rough shape, maybe you should talk to him about his mental health?
"you win the war to end all wars and the world starts to fall apart"
Yes because you losing was a canon event
Uploaded 3 Seconds Ago ? Im fast ! Keepu up the good work and i want you to play the old World Blues Mod again!!
No
Gott Erhalte Franz Den Kaiser!
Yeah i think armored cars is worth it, its the only fast unit you really have in early game, and its stats are pretty decent.
I was wondering, did anyone ever tried to not only reconquer lost territories in WWI but also conquer the old territories of Austria Hungary with Germany?
You should have tried to rebel as Hungary, there is a tree-line for that in the focus where the 1848 paty wins and you basicaly build up and try to convince the Croats and the Bosznians to rise up with you. I don't know for sure if you can go down that focus after the peace treaty, but it would have given you something interesting to do post war.
Alternatively you can side with the loyalists and get Konrad and his paramilitarsits in power and create this wierd Imperial-Royal thingy.
Bitt3rSteel coming in with a great video again!!! Thank you! 🤩
one thing that broke austria-hungary, is that Hungary had its own military, while also able to decide on how Austria builds up its military and most of the time they stopped any build up for an imperial army, which kept Austria much weaker than it could.
Wrong. Austria and Hungary both had their own seperate national armies the Landwehr and Honvédség respectively. They also had a shared army, namely the k.u.k
Thank you for showing me that’s there is in fact better way to Organize a. navy than doing it one ship at a time.
I'm amazed how they even put in Pig War as that is so much historical it's nuts hahah
I still wanna see Bittersteel lead Belgium to glory in this mod.
A-H losing territory after a WW1victory is actually pretty darn historical based on what Central Powers were considered irl. But really, any war the Habsburgs stay in power is really a victory.
Not after a victory. It is historical somewhat for Italy. While everyone likes to claim that the Treaty of Versailles caused World War II because of Germany's terms, in reality, it did cause Italy to ultimately join the Axis as they were upset of having bled so much for so little and not getting the land they were promised by the Entente when they joined. Part of this was their own fault as they left in a huff at the conference drafting the new continent and everyone decided Italy forfeited its claim as a result even when they returned.
You should try to keep Nicholas 2 for the Russian Empire it a lot of fun and difficult to do at the same time in the Great War Redux mod
This is the highlight of my day.
same (almost)
Let's go another the great war redux video, I love them you should try to replay the ottoman empire
Oooo new Bittersteel video YES
Austria-Hungary having an air force in 1910 is pretty impressive
The fact Austria is doing well and not Germany is cursed 💀
Me normally:oh no i'm not brave enought for polítics
Me in strategy games: 1:08
man really said the russian empire was in a better shape than the Austrian empire in the 20th century
anyway, love your content, keep it up !
To be fair, I kind of agree with that. Had it not been for the stresses of WW1, I think Russia would have made the transition to constitutional monarchy much more easily than Austria-Hungary. It would certainly not have been an easy road, but it had far fewer obstacles to progress than the Austrian path.
Austria-Hungary really had a uniquely bad mix of administrative and political inertia, violently regressive Hungarian nationalists who wanted to protect their position as second-strongest grouping within the empire, and an absolute boatload of disgruntled nationalists within the disenfranchised ethnic groups within the empire.
I replied to @untitledanimation8130 further up, outling some of the problems the Austro-Hungarians faced in more detail.
I get the disappointment with the peace deal, but what Austria Hungary got in the peace deal is realistically all they would've wanted or could've gotten. They had a policy of not taking a single inch of land, except some border regions from Romania, as to not add to their current ethnic diversity and instability.
Bitter is back! Now bitters going back to the first great war to fix it. Next hes going back to the 1800s.
Personally, I have never played the game. But watching you play makes its super fun and interesting so I'm planning on buying the game.😁
Hope you enjoy it!
@@Bitt3rSteel letting you know this is not in the moded list
As a hungarian i can confirm that the empire was a mess
I love the modded games, you should play more kaiserreich
Bittersteel, a note for you since the Great War Redux is in the Kaiserreich/Kaiserredux timeline.
i dare you to play bohemia in this mod im subbed! love your content❤
YES NEW VIDEO!!!
hi i got one question that i dont understand about hoi4. that being why when i have researched tier 2/3 artilery and add artilery or support artilery to my division template it uses towed artilery when i have ubgreaded all?
when i saw your video i clicked right away Belgium waffle!
Besides the three puppets, you also got to annex Montenegro! Cherry on the cake!
Good work! Now, I challenge you to play as the ottoman empire and WIN both the war in Libya and the balkan war before ww1!
Nice stuff man
Cool Video Bittersteal. But i want to know abit of history. Like why is austria-hungary so divided? I pretty sure during the austrian empire, they were powerful. What happened to them
The empire was a collection of holdings that just happened to have the same owner, ruled mostly from Austria (the ancestral holding of the Habsburgs). There was never a real effort to integrate all these parts
TL;DR: 19th-century nationalist movements really did a number on the Austrian empire more than any other European power (with the possible exception of the Russian empire)
The cracks really started to show in the 19th century, specifically during the revolutions of 1848.
Prior to 1848, there had been the occasional uprising in Hungary and the Balkans, but there wasn't a really a concept of Hungarian or Slavic "identity."
In 1848, this all changed. In the space of a few months, the bubbling sentiments in Budapest, Prague and Sarajevo boiled over into a series of revolts. These revolts were also happening elsewhere in Europe, but since the Austrian empire had conquered so many different ethnic groups, it compounded the problem somewhat.
The Hungarians were most successful during 1848, driving the Austrian army out and forming a parliament that made multiple declarations around Hungarian borders, language and identity.
While the revolutions of 1848 were a failure in the short-term (most of the uprisings were brutally crushed by their respective autocracies), they laid the groundwork for German, Polish, Slavic and (relevant here) Hungarian nationalism. By 1867, Hungarian nationalism was such a massive problem for the empire that Emperor Franz Joseph I reformed the Austrian empire into the Austro-Hungarian Dual Monarchy. This was the first (and only) "Ausgleich."
Incidentally, Franz Joseph was crowned after the abdication of his uncle in 1848 at the age of just 18. He would be emperor of Austria-Hungary until his death in *1916*.
Unfortunately for Austria-Hungary, acceding to Hungarian nationalists in 1867 fired the starting gun for every other ethnic group in the empire to demand parity with the Austria and Hungary. This led to a steadily simmering of Czech, Slovak, Polish, Ukrainian, Croatian, Bosnian and Serbian nationalism that would weaken the empire over the next 40 years, culminating in the assassination of the Austro-Hungarian heir Franz Ferdinand by Bosnian Serbs in 1914.
Interestingly, it's possible that the empire could have made the transition to a more federal model by enacting an Ausgleich which included all of the disparate ethnic groups of the empire, but a) that would have left Austria as very much the "first among equals" of the nations within the empire, and b) this would have royally (haha) pissed off the Hungarians, who weren't interested in being just another nation within the empire, but rather really wanted the ability to persecute their non-Magyar populations to their heart's content.
For a bit more context after the Napoleonic wars Austro-Hungary(which as mentioned wasn't called that yet) had substantial possessions and influence in Italy, which was broken up into multiple states, and was the head of the German Confederation. However in 1859 Austro-Hungary lost a war to France and the newly formed Italy, losing most of its land in modern Italy, it then lost a war against Prussia in 1866 and got kicked out of the German Confederation making Prussia the undisputed hegemon of Germany which Prussia would then use to form the German Empire after a war with France. Additionally Austria had abandoned its alliance with Russia(there's allot that went on around that but if I wrote it here I'd be writing a full Wikipedia article).
The sum total of all of that left Austro-Hungary with Russia as an enemy fighting a cold war with them over influence and territory in the Balkens, Italy as an enemy since Italy wanted even more land from them around the Adriatic Sea and once Serbia gained independence from the Ottomans(and then had a coup that killed the royal family) another enemy that wanted to do to Austro-Hungary's Balken holdings what Italy and Prussia had done to its italian and german holdings/influence. And the only ally they had was their former rival Prussia(now Germany) that propped them up to counter Russia. Oh and they hadn't industrialized to the same degree as Germany, France, the UK, and Italy, so their economy was worse per capita and therefore their army couldn't afford the same quality of equipment as the other nations.
They controlled a lot of territory in the Balkans. That should be a good indicator in itself
Yo i have been watching for a while i would really enjoy a British or Qing Dynasty video (i don’t have a Hoi4 or a pc so i don’t know how hard it is)
Could you please do Legionary Bulgaria with the new Meta it would be so nice to show maybe more about the Weapons and Ressource Market if you know what I mean to get more out of a firstly small production capacity and become stronger! 💪🇧🇬
You should try greece the focus tree is really good
Great content!
I like yours videos so much i am seeing you when la resistance Is release
I think we should bring back🇹🇷🇧🇬🇩🇪🇦🇹 empires asap
0:40 that's...what an empire is

I ate a taco while watching this
I don’t know what’s more wrong, Conrad von Hotzendorf as the head of the Army or running a dysfunctional country.
Without pulling Italy on your side you would have lost.
Funny Clock Man Tno when
How do You have spy agencies and designing ships and planes? My hoi4 isn't like that.
La resistance DLC
You need DLCS to have some options
His German is actually good lol
Relatable
17:28 as a turk i am offended why is the once huge Ottoman empire now a sick man😭
Cool
Bittersteel could you play the new kaiserreich update as germany?
hey bittersteel
So peace treaty results are fixed and they forgot how Brest Litovsk carved Russia. War to end all wars did not end just cause one of the Entente powers capitulated.
Please play the Qing-Dynasty!!
didnt like how the war ends
Bittersteel could you gernany in kaiserreich it got update.
Will get get an updated guide to Hungary restoring Austria-Hungary?
Absolutely
@@Bitt3rSteel Nice, I'm looking forward to it.
Bittersteel video! Woohoo 🎉
"Bosnia *IS* a dangerous region"
Yep, sounds about right
Bet you can't survive as morocco in great war redux
Yay
My Great war redux always fall when I start game pls help
howitzers are poo now after the update
I dare you to reform greater romania as romania in this mod.
Disgusting
Do you know Ongezellig?
Rahhh Austria
Try playing ottomans next time
Which mod is this?
the resurgence A.E.I.O.U lebensrum 🇦🇹🇭🇺 🗿👌😎👍
womp womp
You did take Montenegro
do the ottomans they are harder like a lot harder
Can you do Russia plz
Nahh howitzers are bad after the update I got obliterated playing ottoman because I had howitzers in my divisions
The "take-Paris-Entente-surrenders" thing is silly and needs to go. The Schlieffen Plan was about capitulating France and then moving on to Russia with full force but 1) Britain was not expected to join the war and 2) Russia was still expected to fight until defeated so this event is pointless and makes the game boring and easy.
bruh moment at 12:43🤣
He should try playing this mod as the Soviets during the uprising, or Russia trying to prevent the Soviets
It’s boring right now, unfinished content left and right. The new update will be much more fun with several new nations appearing, stay tuned!
Why i can not change the video quality?
i played a lot of this mod, never seen the germans suck so bad.
Hi, I'm 14 years old and i finally managed to have 40€ on steam, i'm interested in buyng hearts of iron 4 but i don't know if i should because it's to complicated for my age or something and i just wanted to hear someone opinion on this, thanks
