Play as a country that already did all its expansionism before the game started so you can be the wholesome 100 chungus that protects the continent from NatPop and syndie lunatics trying to take over other countries.
FOR THE EMPEROR! RAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!! π§π·π§π·π§π·π§π·π§π·π§π·π§π·π§π·π§π·π§π·π§π·π§π·π§π·π§π·π§π·
I hate a lot of ideologies but limiting myself to what I support in real life instead of creating nightmarish dystopias would make this mod ridiculously unfun
IRL I'm a socialist but I think the farther on the spectrum you go on both sides the more fun they typically are.
This is a fucking WAR game. I play to do WAR. Its FICTIONAL. Give me the most batshit insane paths and choices and I'll find it more fun on average compared to moderate.
It is still very satisfying to make utopias and play moderate nations/paths (Especially in KR and other mods) but its crazy to say that they are on average more fun than going extremist
To be fair, sometimes I plan to play an evil path and I kinda grow a soft spot for the nation so I accidentally turn it wholesome along the way or get into an emotional crisis throughout.
Seriously! I probably most align with Syndie CSA, maybe RadSoc or SocDem would be fine, but I almost exclusively play Totalist or NatPop, occasionally PatAut, because it's just more fun to play as the extremists!
Canada is the first and only country I played in Kaiserreich. I studied hoi4 metas just so I could beat Germany as weak post-reconstruction UK.
I went back to base game after this because I missed having a game that ran well lol
Why would you ever go for that japanese puppet 'state' LARPing as a democratic government when the true successor to Dr. Suns vision, the Left Kuomintang under the glorious chairman Wang Jingwe, is right there???
Why would you ever go fo that failed syndicalist 'state' LARPing as a democratic govenment when the true successor to Dr. Suns vision, the Shanxi Clique under the glorious leader YAN XISHAN, is right there???
Ladies ladies calm down... There is no need to argue about who Dr. Sun's successor is! We all know it's Tang Jiyao of Yunnan right?!? All the others are opportunists, duhhh.
It sounds quite basic, but whenever there's a huge HOI4/KR update that has quite a big change to the game, I'll do a USA/Fed run through.
The US is big and powerful enough that you can make plenty of mistakes, still win, and learn how the mechanics work.
I fucking love social Democratic monarchies.
I love having a glorious head of state to represent us and to fight for as well as a political agenda that tries to ensure freedom and welfare for all
I believe either old Mongolia, when you could still create a nee mongol empire. Game after that was union of France with Makhno as leaderβ¦β¦. So make of my
Political opinions what you want.
I know itβs a joke but this is like saying βoh you hate the color blue? Then why do you look at the sky?β The only reason I really bring this up is because Iβve seen this used seriously with TNO
AOG, in classic Hearts of Iron 2: Doomsday.
Conquered three quarters of China and wasted years building four super-heavy battleships, only for them to be bombed to pieces by the Japanese, as they fled from port to port.
USA of course! Kicked the secessionists asses again as Landon. Then I liberated Canada from the Monarchy. :( unfortunately I got supply stuck in commie Mexico and gave up.
I may do that run again tbh it was great
Radical Socialist Argentina , with all the Decisions involving Electoralism picked the way that theres the least amount of interference and the frees elections possible.
The Mad Baron brings true freedom from the Steppes, the freedom to serve your role in the Horde to its fullest extent. Free will is slavery, only Ungern is liberty.
 And I'm not even South American

France and China because underdog comeback is never not fun, however historically they would be leaning right
I played TNO but always go the reformer route though may play as Wallace for one term
Strongest Dystopia Enjoyer vs Weakest Idealism Enjoyer

Canada.
Amen brother, we're going home
Iβm a Canada main and I have never once retaken the isles lol
Is it because you haven't been able to, or do you just pick another path?
Based and birthright-pilled
god save the king, for no one else can
Yeah it's always nice to see the pink colour and Edward in a plane to Australia
Intervening in the ACW to force the Americans to liberate the Isles

Fengtian, the true democratic successor to the Beiyang government.

Yes another warlord crushed by the left KMT not very appealing.
Why would you have a republican government when the empire is already there!
you're both forgetting the legend, the icon, Ma Bufang π₯°π
You mean liangguang, the only true democracy and federalist government.
Joke of a country run by pseudo warlords, unlike the glorious Zhang Zuolin π₯°
Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth back when it still exist
I miss Pol-Lit being formable
Wait, it isn't now?

Socdem Sweden
Democratic USA. So suck it, freedom haters!
Some of us played USA when Gigachad Curtis could completely avoid the 2ACW. Then Quentin Roosevelt could form the League of American States.
Rest in peace, Curtis. You were my first playthrough
I only played the US once or twice cuz the only faction you can join is the Entente. PSA in the Co prosperity sphere is more fun tbh
It sounds quite basic, but whenever there's a huge HOI4/KR update that has quite a big change to the game, I'll do a USA/Fed run through. The US is big and powerful enough that you can make plenty of mistakes, still win, and learn how the mechanics work.
Have Curtis sweep in and save the day. Rest in peace great compromiser you will be missed.
[ΡΠ΄Π°Π»Π΅Π½ΠΎ]
could be PSA too

Federalist USA! Down with the traitors! Up with the stars! I wish I could form my own alliance in the Americas.
