Mods feel free to move this if I posted in the wrong place. I also wasn't sure where to post this, as there isn't a guide sub-forum yet.

I would also love to hear anything you would like me to cover in part 2 of the tutorial, which will cover basic warfare. I'm certainly not an expert at HOI4, but I have spent a considerable number of hours with the game. Feel free to give feedback either on here or on YouTube, or ask any questions that you may have about the game. Unfortunately, I preferred vanilla HOI3 + TFH and gave up after just one week into my first Black Ice game playing Germany. Sorry if I missed a couple of things, but I wanted to get the video recorded and uploaded as soon as possible today in order to help any lost new players. Events will benefit Germany immensely, so wait.

I also give some tips on what you should prioritize in the beginning, and what can wait until later. the game can run more or less hands free for the first 3 years.

In this first video I cover everything you need to know in order to start playing the game, with the exception of warfare (that will be covered in another video). This guide is intended for beginning players who have no idea what to do, and is not intended to make you an expert. I created a video tutorial that will walk you through the basic parts of the game.
