Fantastic storytelling as always, I love the perspective of a narrator maintaining the façade that Yingzhen put forwards.

[@pukebeard6406]

Thank you! It was fun putting it together. ^_^

Your storytelling gets better in each video. It's incredible!

[@pukebeard6406]

Thank you so much, sir!

This is perhaps some of the best eu4 content on KZbin. I'm binging your videos now and this is my favourite for sure. It's a shame the vampires to your north don't have any flavour yet; but maybe if I can get the mod working I might try out this nation!

[@pukebeard6406]

I think Corvuria is a nice intro to the mod if you‘re new to it. You get to enjoy the vampire gameplay with a pretty straightforward and rich mission tree. Plus Corvuria are in a good position where they are not in imminent danger as the halessi vampires. I hope you have a great experience!

[@brycedolishny4138]

@@pukebeard6406 I've played Corvuria, but I tend to favour tall playthroughs over wide. Corvuria is like the Russia of the mod, so many wide bonuses. Still, ty for the suggestion.

Nothing like Pukebeard giving a narrative retelling of an Anbennar run to ease the madness of final exams. Appreciate your videos.

Good luck with the exams, mr paperplate! 🤗🤗 Fingers crossed!

I wanted to mention - what a great editing idea to bury the whispering throughout the video. I've been particularly enjoying your videos due to how much lore and storytelling you're putting into them.

[@kirevkizrepnav572]

Random thought: The main use of the kill user covert action would be to chain assasinate the magisterium to force them into a 5/5/5 ruler for the mission tree (since that gives a province modifier it can give any1 the 10% APC)

[@pukebeard6406]

I love it!!!

[@bidulepivert4095]

If you liked the assassinating rulers diplo action, you might like Truedagger, which gets it much earlier in the MT and can do it to anyone (though limited to AIs, it would be very annoying to deal with in Multi). And yes I am totally promoting my MT in hope that you do a video on it 🙂. Really enjoyed the narration, I always like your takes on the tags’ stories ! Didn’t think of Yingzhen as a mass-conqueror for sure. Loved the video ❤

[@pukebeard6406]

Thank you very much! I‘m glad you enjoyed it.

[@jamesnewman7509]

Nice. Clearly along the same lines as Adshaw, which I still have fond memories of. Personally, I've finished my Newshire playthrough with a minor disappointment. You end up with a witch-king ruler immediately *after* you could have used them to unlock the Black Demense, as if to taunt you. Don't know if I would have gone through with it (I've done BD before), but it would have been a wildly different flavour than entering it from Estil. Still, a fun and flavourful run. I am enjoying my current Command run. You have a *lot* of plates to keep spinning, so it's not as boring as '#1 Great Power' would imply. I only recently outgrew the risk of coalitions and have just had their second custom disaster appear (though not ticking yet). The only annoying thing is the disaster tooltip tells you it will start when your 3 new Commands have 400 development apiece, but it doesn't tell you how many they currently have (that I can find). So, it looks like I might be breaking out the calculator to figure out where I need to expand to set this thing off. Ah, well. Still definitely recommend giving it a try, if you feel up to coalition-juggling the entirety of Haless.

[@pukebeard6406]

I will give the Command special attention. I grew to respect them a lot as a nation.

[@alec7452]

BD enforces Black Demesner culture, which is human. Although there was originally an option to form BD directly from Newshire, it was removed because it didn't make sense flavourwise. I'm very glad you enjoyed the run, though

[@jamesnewman7509]

@@alec7452 Ahhh. That makes sense. A shame, but it makes sense. Presuming from your words that you're behind Newshire (or at least, a share of it), thank you! Halflings aren't really my 'thing', but based on the dev diary, I gave them my first playthrough in the new release, and was not disappointed (barring the BD thing, but that's relatively minor).

Thank you 😊

[@lorefox201]

Life is good in our peaceful Sinistral Republic, we are simple people surrounded by bucolic beauty and steeped into an healthy culture of entrepreneurship which simply explains our long term success and our historic friendship with otherwise shunned people like the often maligned ogres who we historically helped at length so that they would be accepted by other humans despite their appearance. Truly, the coin the river and the dinner table know no bigotry.
