I went to Brazil, please let me come home

[pheonicia]

After many hours of work, I finally completed the great task of bringing Brazil to the world, it only cost me my time, sanity, and wrist after having clicked over 4000 times to delete all of the IC on the planet, and deleting every single piece of equipment . Please put in destroy all industry/equipment buttons, my wrists hurt.

along the way I found out that you can in fact have negative convoy equipment which is a little weird to be honest.

And if you're thinking about getting the welsh Argentina achievement by world conquest then release of Wales and welsh Argentina, it's perfectly doable, I released Gambia and Galicia to be my stepping stones. You can make each jump with a single sub three to provide naval supremacy, since if you've deleted all their industry it'll take them a while to build ships of their own.

If you don't want to suffer until 1975 doing a world conquest as communist, remember that fascist countries get -80% war justification time while at war with a major. I'm sure an actual speedrunner could do the Brazil WC much faster than me, but I managed it in 1950 and I wasn't really trying to do it particularly quickly. I can't imagine how painful playing until 1975 is. Though you do get style points for doing it as Lampiao, so maybe that's a win.

Random question, but why did you need to delete the equipment stockpile and factories? I don't know why it would really affect anything to keep the equipment in storage and just leave it alone. That just strikes me as being a really random thing to do with literally no benefit.

As for the Welsh Argentina achievement, I just released Wales and Welsh Argentina after playing through the Señor Hilter achievement, flipped fascist, joined my original country's faction, and paradropped into Wales from occupied England. No need to fight anyone else or do naval invasions across the world and pretty easy.

Before ToA, i did played integralist Brazil with vanilla focus tree,,, after grab USA a turn it into collab (also mexico and canada, your IC skyrocket to ~2k ~3k and infinite steel). then go make modern tanks, start using encirclements(boring as ...) then world conquest become trivial.

i can't imagine what i can do now, im just using infantry:

I did it as lampiao so I could grab a grand total of 10 achievements in one go, and I deleted all the factories and stockpiles because I was afraid if I didn't, the Brazil AI would justify on me because of the claims they had on my territory as Welsh Argentina, and getting rolled over by the absolute monster I created would have meant redoing a majority of the world conquest (though definitely as an easier nation) to get the achievement again, and I wasn't going to risk it.

If you do it fast enough, you can start with political effort as your first focus and cheese a civil war into your original ideology before your original country should be able to justify on you. It should allow you to join the same faction, making you safe.
