EU4 but it's the Dark Ages

The Eclipse of Empires mod by Plati for Europa Universalis IV (EU4) allows us to create some chaos in the mid/late game and bring down massive nations.. but what if we applied its effects to the whole world in 1444? Rebels will control the world, and then what? Let's find out!

Some may say this is unrealistic, and I would agree Don't forget to like the video and subscribe for more

8:15 Pronunciation skills = 100 As a greek I got triggered and Im also dying of laughter XD

[@Bitt3rSteel]

First we play the map games, then we watch the map games being played

[@Chewbert]

If you can't beat em, watch em!

[@Blue-xc7qc]

Then he creates the map game videos.

[@Flame_of_Prometheus]

@@Blue-xc7qcThen the map-people create new map games

[@Rusty_Justice]

Is this a crossover episode?

[@TheLazyBot]

The original version of this mod might be an interesting way to shake up one of your longer campaigns, both to break up AI hugboxes and to give some challenge to the late game

[@Chewbert]

I agree!

[@TheBestMCScavenger]

I just played a 500 year campaign playing as the papal state and it made for some amazing stories like the Italian Cuba that helped the native Americans resist colonization until the mid 1700’s until the pope (parent country of Cuba) came back and conquered the whole new world

[@InauguralAgate6]

One of the most insane border gore situations that ever happened was in an Ironman Netherlands run during which the most powerful France I've ever seen suddenly got eaten up by a released Orleans and then became an OPM, which I then vassalized and reconquested all of the French region with. Also Aragon got somehow released as a one province nation in menorca which I also used to reconquest half of an also quite powerful Spain.

[@Chewbert]

Reconquest OP pls nerf

[@RhombonianKnight]

Since Drew Durnil hasn't done observer content in a long while, I think it's fair for you to fill that niche.

[@manwell8328]

Unrest: *exist* Ming: *chuckles* I’m in danger

[@whitespace7348]

most bordergore moment was when i was playing as the Iroquois. I had just formed the Iroquois confederacy and i was waiting for a european to start colonizing. Instead of the first europeans i saw being the French, the Spanish, or the Portuguese, I was cursed with seeing "Breton New England".

[@clixzygames2946]

The dark age lasted from the End of the Roman Empire to the End of the Roman Empire

[@TheTrueSeraph]

Honestly what did I just watch?! So hectic xD Chad Minsk tho

[@Chewbert]

Minsk deserved more screen time

[@thisisDaKing]

I would love to see more of this with other mods

[@Chewbert]

Of course! Thanks :D

[@BoBrEiGs]

I know this may be hard to code but is it possible to make it so whenever a country goes to war with anyone, it's rivals immediately after go to war against the country?

[@Chewbert]

Yeah that wouldn’t be hard!

[@user-yo3je7vh5h]

How ironical, being from Minsk (irl) seeing minsk (tribe in game) and even without minsk itself(in begining)

[@Chewbert]

A strange timeline 😂

[@Eugene_of_Theodoro]

9:25 I've never seen anything more beautiful in my life

[@subwoofer2765]

Craziest AI bordergore: after conquering the raj as the British, I had to fight Scandinavia to get Pakistan from them They snaked all the way to India through the steppes after Muscovy never formed Russia and collapsed

[@Chewbert]

Oh yeah crazy things happen when there’s a power vacuum!!

[@baileyfellers5465]

Love your content, I found you a few weeks ago and I have very much enjoyed these creative ideas! Keep up the great work!

[@mrw9044]

Really enjoyed this one. So much going on!

[@ew-us9ve]

Really liked this video! I definitely want more content of this style from you!😃

[@Chewbert]

Agreed! Was fun to make as well 😊

[@Benwut]

Border gore? Perhaps let me introduce you to when that opm Yas in arabia managed to conquer the timurids, then was force-converted to catholicism by Portugal (who for some reason took the most op combination of religious ideas I've ever seen for conversions), and then got a personal union over the Commonwealth.

[@risingphoenix02]

I think the icon is from heroes of might and magic twilight skill. Man funny i still recognise it after all this time. Love the observer content by the way.

[@lv.1crook]

Minsk needed 100 years to have Minsk within it's borders lol

[@CAPNsaveya]

I enjoyed this video I would like to see more videos of this type

[@ChrissieBear]

Moldavia just Bing Chilling throughout. XD

[@MyFunnyVids888]

14:30 i did a multiplayer game when we did the religious wars we won fairly soundly and enforced religious peace deal or whatever the war goal name is and the dudes playing with me thought I didn't take anything in the peace deal when I had just enough to do the war goal

[@Mr.0s]

Gigantic Finland. Idk what happened, but Finland took over Sweden and Norway and formed Scandinavia later in the game. l was so shocked after that like what?

[@NoRainNoRainbow94]

Some more observes would be quality! Have missed this kind of video, especially with the added craziness of the mod.

[@Chewbert]

Yes that’s the beauty of mods is you can break so many things lol

[@Wanys123]

10:25 Prussia... led by a low aristocracy family from Bohemia. NICE!

[@Vazirify]

Of course you should vote Mann for the Emperor in the HRE! Empire of Mann, the true Imperium!

[@Chewbert]

Glory to the emperor!

[@ArakkoaChronicles]

China got hit so hard, Wu turned into Uw.

[@yaldabaoth2]

I specifically like the nation of UWU in China 15:07.

[@Greg_Abandoned]

never seen Minsk before

[@Invalid_eSports]

Don't know the name of the mod but the one that has all countries realised let that play out on observer to see what happens 🤔

[@Chewbert]

Shattered Europa! Def a good idea, thanks :D

[@reapergaming1687]

11:30 "pretty even" 100k troop difference

[@alekseirasputin]

I think 100 years is very few for the beginning of decay I mean, ottoman golden age is maybe 2-2,5 centuries from the start of the game Russia's is 17th-20th Frances is until the end of the Napoleonic wars, etc It's good challenge for the player, but not for the ai, because they absolutely won't survive that And I think this option must be propagated for, like, first three of the GP, because, f.e., eight GP may not reach the first in 100 years, if this is an ai But great video, I enjoyed it!

[@Chewbert]

I’d recommend passing that info to plati on the mod workshop page! I appreciate the feedback and thank you for watching :)

[@jadenlilly6113]

what mod changed the province view and put all the buildings on the bottom???

[@Chewbert]

Artemis UI

[@jadenlilly6113]

@@Chewbert thx 🙏

[@Blackjackwhiskey]

Cool video. Interesting development of things. Quite unexpected. I'd suggest alternate some videos simulating scenarios with regular playing. Perhaps trying some less common nations or unusual achievements.

[@Chewbert]

I think you’re right along the lines of what I’m thinking as well :)

[@rey_8834]

Based timeline here with prussia, great video 👍

[@I_AreGreg]

not really border gore but i was in an england game and ryzan was allied to muscovy somehow they got all the way to nogai

[@Chewbert]

That’s awesome! I love when the AI does impressive stuff

[@cousin_chet]

Give solo province islands a big boost…some institutions, money, advanced tech and development equal to Ming. Gotland, Cyprus, etc If this has already been done…please drop link in the comments.

[@Chewbert]

It hasn’t but I love the idea!

[@datbo1]

Hold on. Minsk isn't a vanilla tag.. Is the mod able to create custom nations through rebels?

[@Chewbert]

It's a cossack breakaway tag, they are dynamically formed in vanilla

[@datbo1]

@@Chewbert really? I've never seen them form before and I have played sooo many games with multiple mods that balkanize europe. Nice to hear that it's a feature tho

[@Chewbert]

Yeah it’s like super rare, idk the exact requirements but it essentially requires a nation with Cossacks to completely collapse to rebels

[@Cecilia-ky3uw]

Teutons couldve done better with its ideas, i guarantee the protestants wouldve won if prussia had just taken quantity ideas

[@crab1973]

i enjoy it but i have no ideas for now
