Paradox hoi4 multiplayer tournament

[Munin]

Why not have a paradox multiplayer tournament?

This way pple can stop compaining about youtubers that don't perform good enough and can see on stream some of the best hoi4 player compete & learn from them

for example for this game (wargame european escalation) it helped a lot too promote the game (these are the finals of an old tournament)

yeah i feel like alot of the youtubers are noob too, (atleast the ones I watched.)

I think one was even an official Hoi4 tutorial video, and im thinking "has ths mof**cker even played the game?" like he's referring to things so abstract that he couldn't possibly have played.

Problem is unless you allow house rules then diplomacy trumps actual gameplay skill. Like theres nothing the allies can do if USA or USSR decide to ally Germany, yet in all the mp strat threads in the hoi4 forums everyone says the best strat is to make completely ahistorical unbalanced unholy alliances and bully everyone else. Doesn't matter how skilled the UK player is at micro or calculating the best division compositions and build orders, hes gonna lose if any dumb ahistorical alliances happen.
