I think this is the first time I have seen anyone play a baltic nation and not immediately gobble the others up, instead choosing to cooperate. Im pleasantly surprised
that was truly amazing to watch
The good ending
@@nanni-buyerofcopper I mean literaly that
Reickskomerseriet ostland
I was JUST about to do that
*HOI4 community:* Is 20w good or 21w better? ... I heard 27 is the best... _Meanwhile_ *Hatlessspider:* *"I'm using 6 width"*
😎
Me with my 40 width schizophrenic division:
This collab was a blast, looking forward to more MP ideas in the future!
Hey, underrated channel! Hoping you got the attention you deserve from this collab!
Hatless your work has not gone unappreciated, you definitely deserve more attention in the hoi community. I watched bitter go from 60k to 140k subscribers and I know you can do it too brother. Stay well and keep up the good fight.
I'd be curious to see you guys play the Philippines, British Malaya, and the Dutch East Indies, I'm sure there's lots of opportunities for shenanigans! Or each of you plays one of the Chinese warlords!
I think a fun one would be Tannu Tuva, Mongolia, and Sianking take over the Soviet Union and defeat Japan and Germany
Iraq/Iran/Afghanistan next? :P Or replace one of those with something like Saudi Arabia?
I had a blast doing this MP, and we won too!
FYI Antasil - at the start of the video the subtitles called you Anti-ISIL xD
i remember when you had 500 subs
That’s a lie no one enjoys playing hoi4
imagine Stalin’s reaction when he’s told by his generals that he’s losing to the baltics the second time 💀
this reminded me of that Albania run Bitter did months ago where Zog not only managed to walk into Rome, but also Berlin
When was the 1st?
@@kmv-2 baltic wars of independence
@@kmv-2Yeah, basically after the ussr was knocked out of WW1. Germany imposed many territorial claims where the baltics, Poland, Belarus and Ukraine were taken by Germany. But opposition and the need for manpower in the west led the Germans to retreat and them to become their own countries. Idk how the ussr won against Belarus or Ukraine but they failed against Poland and the Baltic nations. Idk if they attacked Finland during the inter war period.
@@supergamergrill7734they took Ukraine by first allying with Makhno and promising him autonomy in Zaporizhia, then stabbing him in the back. It didn't help that Poland tried to invade Ukraine too
As a Lithuanian, I'm really proud this came out on our day of independence
Hi from estonia
Im fellow Lithuanian too
Hi from Poland
Ello from Arizona
hello! from Texas.@@ADMICKEY
Great, now conquer the world as them.
I approve
@@Fearsol no, Liberia world conquest
@@gustaffringno
@@Secrethiden no
@@gustaffringyes
I really like the idea of a team of players playing really Minor Countries and making it BIG
As a Balt, this is the best thing to ever happen
I always knew you want nothing but conquest of Polish lands ;))))
If you are a balt, I hope you were triggered by the fact that in the thumbnail he mixed up Latvia and Estonia
@@casualjoe1264 No he didn't?
@@tomtex9664 the countryballs aren’t in the right place
@@casualjoe1264 Why would you hope for that?
As someone from Lithuania, I can really appreciate you guys doing this collab, not to mention today is National Independence day here, so your timing couldn't be better!
The Ki-Adi-Mundi thing is true. He was a special exception within the Jedii order because his race was on the verge of extinction and he was one of the few males alive
Thanks for writing it, else I would have done it :)
@@noobmaster-lol7876 Yeah it is interesting but I havent seen Canon explore it alot (in regards to old lore)
@@chazbrown1139 Many things aren't shown or stated in canon thiugh they are canon, but unfortunately films have only limited amounts of time you know. But I personally have grown quite fond of SE lore especially legends lore
@@noobmaster-lol7876 Yeah to me I prefer Legends lore just because it goes so much further in the past and beyond what the movies show. Also I like the outcome of the universe better even though it does seem weird in some places.
Seeing Sweden retaking Pomerania was hilarious.
Belgium getting in this faction is like the gag in a cartoon were a bunch of people are doing a huddle and then a completely unrelated person joins in without anyone realizing.
the fact you manage to do what you do while having a full time life outside of yt is just amazing. for sure more vids would be amazing but i rather wait for the quality you produce.
super agreed, the fact he is still loving what he does is amazing
Agreed
Agreed
Almost entirely unrelated, Ki-Adi-Mundi had several wives because his species was going extinct because of its extremely low birthrate, so he was allowed to follow the customs of his species which was to have multiple wives.
Iirc it wasn’t a birth rate problem but an almost exclusively female gender ratio requiring all males of the species to effectively be farm studs.
Jap 5 wives cononically.
It's interesting that you focused on armored trains as Estonia, the country relied heavily on armored trains to win it's independence 20 years before this period. Feels more authentic this way.
I love how the big players began joining the Baltic Entente as the war progressed it was low-key inspiring three minor nations holding their own against the might of Germany and Russia
This was awesome to watch. I laughed really hard at several things... the U.S. joining the Baltic Entente, the absolute insanity of the peace deal borders, and the small empire in the shape of genitals. My hat is off to you guys for quality shenanigans.
This looked like it was a whole lot of fun.
It really was!
HOLY CRAP 19:55, Sweden's pulling a Gustavus Adolphus. Chad Sweden
The North Lion 🦁🇸🇪
Baltic Blues Brothers. Really putting the band back together!
It's always a happy day when Bitter blesses us with a new upload.
Love it, please more of this
Idk why, but when Iclixked on this vid i stood up and loudly said: "THE BALTIC BROTHERS HOLD THE LINE" while saluting
the Latvian leader looks like Boris Yeltsin
I watched one of the streams where I saw you guys suffer tremendously trying to make this work. So happy to see the finished product! Awesome game!
Nice, it would be fun to see some more multiplayer vids!
I sincerely hope you guys do another rendition of this when Arms Against Tyranny comes out, considering that they literally designed a path for friends to play the Nordics together.
I hope the three of you make more content in the future. You all have great chemistry and play off each other really well.
Would love to see more of theses co-op sessions; as they're something that could have almost limitless possibilities.
Been a fan of all 3 of you ever since I seriously got into HOI4, this collab was almost meant for me!
Love this kind of video! Would love to see more collaborative videos in the future
This was a really cool video to watch, hope to see more collabs like this in the future
19:33 yes you can, you have to click on the icon to the left of "Railway Gun 1", and in the menu that pops up you can change it. I did it literally yesterday with a railway gun i stole from the germans :p
This brings joy to my heart, I wish this was "real history"
having so little manpower and NOT heavily investing into field hospital? what utter madness... also, can we get that save game? i'd really like to see the production, the templates, research, etc for myself
The problem with field hospitals is that for such small divisions they would take more manpower to add them then they would actually save 😭
@@johngalt5166 i never thought about that, good catch
@@methmonster yeah lol, trust me I love the idea of field hospitals and want to use them every chance I get when they even MIGHT be useful, but I think feedback gaming does a pretty good job of explaining that (sadly) they are pretty much only ever useful in hyper specific situations. I personally would be happy if they got a small buff but idk what they could do to buff them other then give higher trickle-back stats. Maybe have them add some division recovery or org or somn? Idk for sure
This was really fun, and quite impressively pulled off. :)
This collaboration multiplayer idea is cool man keep em comin
This is my favorite video of yours please do more like this in the future ❤
Never seen such a big Latvia before! xD
reminds me of drew durnil, alex the rambler and ISP
Just FYI, the name Odense is pronounced with what's known in Danish as a soft D (Please don't make a dirty joke), which is much more similar to the English 'TH'. So it would be pronounced more like O-then-se, with the pressure being on the O. Source: I'm Danish
The Baltic boys and the Scandinavian Fellas
As a young father aswell i feel it. Family, work, other stuff at home. But glad to see you even have few hours to do videos and put them up. ❤ Cheers
That khiva is just ....
This was great to watch! Now we need a Pacific version!
Australia Malaysia and Indonesia
@@fieldmarshalbaltimore1329 nah Malaysia Siam/Philippines and Indonesia would be better imo
British Malaya, Dutch East Indies, and The Philippines, all 3 puppets, flip commie and clear the other ideologies from the pacific, The People's Pact of Pacific Puppets
Cant wait for more of these collabs!
Loved this video, would like to see more multiplayer games in the future if possible. :D
Liked and subscribed for the best video in a long time, and for helping liberating Denmark.
A great day for all my Baltic brothers!
i randomly found this video and im already amazed of your channel!
Happy to see that live! Need to see more collabs between you three
Your comment made the edited vid too!
@@hatless_spider Yep! I noticed that, hehe. Mom, I'm famous now!
You are by far my favourite Hoi4 youtuber, really love your content mate.
Loved this collab so much!
GREAT CONTENT AS ALWAYS, KEEP IT UP
great idea. i always play this with 1 or 2 friends :)
Very cool I had watched parts of the stream in hatlessspiders channel
Usually find your videos great and interesting. but this was fun and enjoyable. loved it.
would love to see more small mp projects!!
Really love the collab. You should do it again
Can’t remember if I’ve suggested this before but I would love to watch a 3-person MP where one player manages the army, another manages the navy, and the third controls the political side and has to mediate disputes between the two.
Finland after the peace deal: 🙂
This was a really fun video to watch love the idea
I’m supposed to go exercise but new Bitt3rSteel video just dropped
More multiplayer vids in the future would be heat
Love the co-op gameplay
As a Lithuanian I've been waiting for your video on this!
that's fun to see that you are playing as my home country : )
at minute 14 - the "Calling into War" is a known Issue and prevalent problem in Multiplayer usually it produces frantic shouting demanding to "call in via call all on war tab" this is the solution btw: You need to go into the top on your current wars, cycle through the tabs, and push the buttons there to call in allies else, calling in allies in complex wars is regularly bugged and doesn't work :-)
I love these vids that you make! keep it up!
I did this today with my friends. It was amazing fun until the Soviets navel invaded and we completely fell apart. The last thing we ever made was the Latvia refugee zone then we all died but it was hella fun.
I remember dru durnil played the mod with or spectating Denmark leader with Santa hat
Collabs are always great 👍
dont know if someones already said this but at 14:06 where you couldnt call your allies in its a bug. you have to go into the war screen, where you would see like casulties and crap, and call them in from there or you could do what you did and wait for the ai to call them in lol
The Leader you started with, looked like the professor from "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"
I just like they talk about daily stuff too, apart from being allied to one another in-game
Belgian Netherlands and Luxembourg next please ;)
Your evil 💀
I want more multiplayer with you three it’s fun to watch also all the laughs to
It's cool the video with the Baltics!
Regarding the Ki-Adi-Mundi thing, it was allowed because his species' birthrate is so ridiculously low, he was granted an exception. Of all things to come up in a BitterSteel video, this really gave me a good chuckle. Also, he was a huge war criminal. Which, I guess, fits right in with HOI.
I need more of this.
20:40 "Pull out and just sail back home" 💀
Love the Country Balls when someone speaks.
Im from estonia and im happy to see it mentioned and played
I have done it sooo many times with my buddies.
The closed caption for this video has had some fuckin' gems man. "I'm bringing my railway to dog have pills"
bittersteel bro i realy love you so much you are one of the best hoi4 player for me with your help i managed to achive many many achivments with your videos i dont want to be boastfull but i realy became Op player
i love how video subtitles translated antasil as anti-ISIL
Please more of this
Me and the bois used to do this all the time lol
Masterpiece collabs
This is going to be awesome
Guys beat the Two titans and also got the super titan on their side, impressive
My grandpa fought in the encirclement of the German troops near Copenhagen, RIP. PS he didnt die during the battle he died due to a trash can explosion in 1978 in Lublin.
I want more videos and streams like this, and i guess people too
10 month ago😨
interesting strat! I've always wanted to do some sort of baltic-run with 3 people or at least I have control of the other 2 baltic countries for 1 reason: The left side of the tree. Screw the political branch, rush down the industry tree and load yourself up with tons of factories, then go politics/ have 1 country go politics and annex the other countries and core them and their juicy factories to make one SUPER strong baltic country!
Loved that. Tbh, German suicide front in Luxembourg simply comes from the fact that the tree is either totally railroaded (historical) or totally random… there is no strategic decision whatsoever to adapt the fronts of your neighbor countries joins axis or not. I.e. Allies will always declare war on Iran even though they do not go axis
This makes me wonder if the Benelux also have bonuses for working together and if they can beat Germany that way (without ally help). I mean from this that seems relatively easily, but that would historically be wild. In fact, with how easy France seems to capitulate you might even get the change to rebuild a Carolingian (/Frankish) Empire, as Charlemagne was very likely born in what is now Belgium.
It may require a mod (as I don’t think Greenland is a country), but Iceland, Greenland and Denmark (or another island) could be an interesting trio
It is now
I need more uploads, I've watched like ~100 of your videos these past 2 weeks and it's not enough. I don't even play the game and It's entertaining
Working on it!
