Have you planned something already that you want to do or want to go as? What will it be and do you think you can pull it off?

My first move that is truly ahistorical will be to try and play the Brittish Raj and establish independence, if it's possible. Perhaps I'll peek greedily towards my neighbors, such as Persia and Siam, for some easy access to resources.

The long-term plan would be to become a new Great Britain, with my own colonies and navy. The natural enemy would be Japan, of course, but then again... What reaches could I not strive for if I ally with them and decide to carve up China in between the two of us?

Play as Latvia, conquer the rest of the Baltics and some bit of the Poland. Join with the Axis and try to take Leningrad.

Another thing - I know that in HoI3 it was really easy to turn USA in to National Socialist as Germany, just by sending spies and making them to gain support for your party till the coming elections. Try something similar in HoI4

.........Also mayhaps bring my mod partially to HoI4 and have 1910 settings.

I am going to lead France quickly rebuild the Small Entente and declare war on Germany as soon as they try to violate Versailles Treaty and Locarno Treaty. Most certainly during the remilitarization of Rhineland. Then I am going to see how far I can go by playing a very active France.

My ultimate goal is to turn the second colonial empire as the leading power of decolonization. Yep you hear me right ;)

An agressive, democratic France defending the Little Entente with armored divisions. My objective will be to conquer Berlin, and if that works, to conquer Moscow.

Have you planned something already that you want to do or want to go as? What will it be and do you think you can pull it off?

I saw a screenshot of a "Northern Lights" faction and i will try and pull that off as Sweden, with hopes of ruling all of the Baltic coast except for the soviet port at Leningrad.

Pacifist neutral Switzerland or Ireland. you could do the whole play-through while afk.

Seriously though, I hope there will be a demo because I want to get a look before buying the game. I tried Stellaris on my brother's PC and it ran like hot garbage ( despite being a pretty good pc, maybe stellaris doesn't play nice with AMD? ) I didn't buy it because of that and i'm holding off on HOI4 until after release.
