Just noticed there's a voting contest for HoI4 achievements on Steam, as an avid HoI4 achievement hunter, I. must. talk. about them...
Tordenskjold would be proud: As Denmark or Norway sink the pride of the fleet of a major power
I'm sorry I don't know who Tordenskjold is (although I find it amusing Mussolini looks just like him...).
The achievement itself is just "Pride and Extreme Prejudice" again, I did it last time as the Netherlands so not too excited about this one.
Quick Revolution: As the Soviet Union, put Trotsky in power and make all major nations communist before 1945
The USSR is in dire need of new achievements, I'm not a fan of time limits but this one sounds kinda doable?
You can rush Germany and MAYBE France&UK if you get lucky in the Channel, you then get a Civil War which will delete some of your equipment, divisions and get purged officers....
The new spy system might help getting the rest of the majors communist and that might be the way to do it, but I don't own LaR yet so I can't comment on it.
A maybe for me, mostly because I don't know how effective the spy system works in boosting ideologies, otherwise sounds like a exploit run.
Better Late Than Never: As Monarchist England, conquer Normandy, Aquitaine, and Paris
Britzkrieg again? Invading France as the UK is hardly anything new.
Finnish Him: As Finland, conquer the Soviet Union without joining a faction
Grinding the USSR to death can be easily done as of now, if it was a 1v1 vs the USSR it could be a nice challenge, the thing is your problem is not the USSR, its Germany.
I have no idea how you'd go about capitulating the USSR before Germany gets in on the action and takes your territory, unless you're an hardcore meta-min-maxing Finland player.
This means the most effective way to do this achievement is probably to let Germany take the USSR, while you form the Nordic League (you don't even need Karelian Isthmus for it), then defeat Germany and take the whole thing, you don't even need to fight the USSR at all! But that kinda defeats the point of the achievement...
This one needs some work.
Finding Old Zealand: As New Zealand, conquer Zeeland
Another Australia-Hungary? Turn fascist, join the Axis, naval invade from Germany.
Can be a challenge because you're New Zealand, and at least gives me a reason to play as them once....
Gets a maybe.
Afri-Khan: Conquer all of Africa as Tannu Tuva or Mongolia
This sounds interesting? I wouldn't want to do this one relying on the sure to die Soviets... Taking Iran and Iraq, turning fascist, joining the Axis before Italy does so and attacking the Allies and Italy seems the way to go.
I could see this one working.
I am the senate: As Democratic US, have 100% control in the house and senate
Gets points for prequel memes which I'm vulnerable to, immediately loses them for being the most mind dumbing boring achievement on the list.
Keep pressing the lobbying button, riveting.
All the Romes under Romania: As Romania, control Rome, Istanbul and Moscow
Romania has enough achievements already but I like this one, seems not too frustrating with a good amount of challenge, plus a cool theme.
This one would make it imo.
The chad Chad: As Chad, conquer all of Africa
As many have before me, I too succumbed to the power of the Chad meme, besides, a unite Africa achievement is bound to happen so I could take this one.
The problem is Chad's population, this would be a good opportunity for a new African formable nation to make this achievement not too frustrating.
Also, a rule to be able to pick decolonized nations from the start would be nice, right now some are kinda locked unless you disable MtG.
The French Prince of Belair(us): As any Monarchist France, own and control all cores of Belarus
An incentive to play the new French monarchist paths, it sounds good enough, although I don't own LaR as of yet.
Which achievements sound good to you?
