I have restarted the game over 80 times in the last hour hoping to get an oppose Hitler start.

Alright; so setting a country on a specific path disables achievements,
but the new true random setting will NOT, but it has not been confirmed yet?

Correct, that's what seems to be what will happen, but it is not 100% confirmed yet.

If the random setting doesn't disable achievements that just means we'll start seeing achievement guides beginning with, "Restart until the UK picks the communist route"

To be honest, I think that is ok. There are already achievement strategies that work like that with historical focuses turned off.

It depends on the odds. I think for a skilled player it should take longer to get the achievement by restarting over and over compared to just playing the game.
