Oh my god, watching Alex just let the Spanish throne in the hand of the Habsburg en be like "I don't care" while playing France (in a War of Spanish Succession mod) is so frustrating to see lmao

HOI4 player moment.
“Yeah, I like history! As long as it’s anywhere between 1905 and 1991.”

[@SVK91]

Lol! Focusing all on Europe and being like "oops I forgot to look at colonization" is the actual history of how France lost it's early empire ;P

[@VroomBroom439]

19:00 LMAO just the zoom out and “Bruh” at mega Poland

[@AlextheRambler]

1700 will be fun right?

[@elmerlind2946]

Hope so

Yeah of curse.

[@nichpelvk9329]

does this mod have a pirate republic?
Nassau and stuff
Bahamas

[@jimtalbott9535]

@@nichpelvk9329That’s a fun idea. Or maybe a late recreation of Viking Paganism?

Claps my hands together like an excited kid when I saw you doing a vid on this mod. Spend way too much time in it recently

Great video on a mod I didn't know I'm now thrilled to try it thanks alex

[@thomasalanine9801]

Thank you I enjoyed this very much Alex 🎉

[@AlextheRambler]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@aohps7063]

This mod is just EU4 in HOI4

[@AlexDeLarge1]

This is a cool mod. I'd love to see more of it. Also Austria at 15:59 looks like a giant pengus.

[@FUNATtiCGamer]

Nice work in the video! Congratulation!

You got this alex! We are with you!!

More of Alex let’s go 🎉

[@WaffIes1811]

Love your videos :)

[@Baldur_II]

Hey Alex,
love to see you having a good monarchist playthrough. Still one of my favorite english speaking CZcamsrs.
Greetings from Germany ✌🏻

[@hansson2257]

please try to save Sweden in 1718 startdate!

[@jnksgb]

Even when drunk you are still my favourite hoi 4 video creator ❤

[@watercannonscollaboration2281]

17:40 this is a certified rambler try moment

[@justarandomaccount7636]

Empire 0.6.3: Into the Orient. is the mod name for anyone wondering.

[@DarthEstebanMontoya]

When is Alex going to learn that these half dead mods set before WWI are just a ball ache and a half.

[@kyle93watson]

Doesn't help that it hasn't been updated in ages. If it has been updated to the No Step Back expansion, he could deal with these supply issues.

[@johnnotrealname8168]

@@kyle93watson Bruh the people at the time barely could. This is arguably realistic.

i got jumpscared with the intro

[@mcgee227]

Have you played Prussia in this mod?

[@fkmkl]

Are there any other mods like this?

[@samg5463]

I know part of it is the mod but jeeze you can sure see why they had fun stuff like a “30 year war” with logistics like this

[@johnnotrealname8168]

Actually the paintings of that War portrayed supplies well. It was beginning to be regularised and the King at the time, Louis XIV, has been described as basically the Quartermaster-General for the French Army around this time (He was a bit obsessed with logistics.). He did okay.

[@RealMrConqueror]

Victoria 3 be like... did you forget me already.. i can be modded too... 😢

[@Bitt3rSteel]

3:59 my guy. Please. That's the least French thing you could possibly say.

I am sorry if I am blind and can Not find it in the description but what is the name of the mod?

[@brendadavis8377]

Can you please also do the 1718 start date
Nice video by the way 👍 👌

[@matteomarinelli1203]

what mod is it?

[@Jannes-pj4cd]

So basically It’s an ETW version of HOI4. Sounds fun as ETW is one of my favorite games.

[@LegoMexi]

We need a mod set during Napoleon. Or is there a mod like that already?

[@battledroid8010]

There is one in the making called Napoleonic Wars, its currently in its Alpha stage.

[@emadhassan1193]

Uppppppp for algorithm

[@jakethompson9260]

Glory to the Omnisiah. (CZcams algorithm)

[@smcilia]

Isn't that just Victoria 2 with some slight changes?

[@peperoni_pepino]

Netherlands declares bankruptcy in 1700? That's a bit late, but I'll allow it.
The actual rampjaar (disaster year) is famously 1672, and pretty much all economic problems in the decades after are aftershocks.

[@johnnotrealname8168]

To be fair they recovered rather well.

[@Deavastator]

I am playing this mod just as i see this released

[@MachivelianBear]

What si the name of the mod?

what is the mod called? I can´t find it on the workshop

[@battledroid8010]

Empire 0.6.3: Into the Orient.

[@Clone683]

Is there a mod that is basically a 1444 start date for HOI4?

[@IquonYT]

Wait, do you have "Emma" the bee, the mascot of "borussia dortmund" next to flegmon? 😂 didnt know you like football, but especially would not have associated you with a german bundesliga club :D

[@FoxGon-yk9cp]

So it wasn't just my army who sucked in this mod. For some reason, even if you have the best template in the game, you will barely push if the enemy has an army..

[@johnnotrealname8168]

Welcome to 18th Century warfare.

[@FishwicksREAL]

I literally played this mod yesterday. It sucks! Over half of the trees are unfinished!!!!!!! Not even all the major power's are completed!!!

[@dinojakeyt]

I believe it's meant to be playable not finished, and it's a solo dev gathering data in the 1700s it is good for what it is

4:23 Please tell me you didn’t research a 423 day tech 😭

They did though. The state heavily interfered and were rather inefficient but they did exist and France had some decent gangers.
