The real Von Luckner would be quite famous after the war, because of his "gentleman pirate" reputation, known for being successful at sea while also magnanimous and merciful. So famous in fact, that Moustache Man would try to recruit him, trying to add a popular figure into his party. But Von Luckner told him to f* off, and then proceeded to smuggle people out of Germany for the duration of WW2

Suggestion: the *Ultimate Joya Playthrough* Basically the first time she played HOI4 she picked No-No Germany as her starter nation, while in the MLP mod(and she sure does love MLP) she went as the Crystal Empire So what I propose is, why not both? Like my idea is you having the Equestria at War mod installed but not activated, so all the content and tags are there but not in use as you play the vanilla game, then using the Console Commands you transfer all of the Reich's territory to the CE's tag That way you'd replace/combine Joya's first pick with her MLP pick, allowing her to play as Germany but one that is the Crystal Empire instead of the Third Reich, like her ideal game path To be clear I have no idea if that would work, Im not a modder or game programmer, I just think it would be really fun In any case - *All Hail the Sky Princess!*

I like you reading most of them aloud. In the video if it’s alt history I need a narrative to understand why we did certain things, and certain things happened to ‘us’. There is a degree to which kaiseredux becomes something closer to a graphic novel , or a choose your own adventure book, the truest incarnation of that is TNO, where it’s basically an cinematic universe of books. On the other hand, do feel free to cut some things back. But don’t go too far, if it’s a 4/5paragrpah mega even I do still want to you to say a paragraph of story, not cut it down to 2 lines,, or a gesture at story, some people who do kaiserredux go to far and it just leaves you confused halfway through the video when you have no idea why anything is happening.
