      It's all good. These things happens. A lot of things went wrong today, but dwelling on that alone is pointless. I had a great week and today was a bit shit, but its ok. Massive technical issues with getting the stream working in the first place, then fighting a battle I knew I shouldn't have just for entertainments sake, then making a huge mistake at the start of the battle and deciding to just start it again was also a mistake. and then when I was fighting it the second time and it didn't look like it was going well my internet cut out making it look like I raged out of the battle. Even though I won it at the end, a lot of people resorted to insulting which really didn't help. And then to finally make it worse the guy that was supposed to arrive to do some work on my house, which I was supposed to let in arrive a bit early and knocked on the side of my house to get my attention to let him in, which forced me to end the stream abruptly. It was a catastrophic end to an otherwise relatively shit livestream.

Your disaster campaigns, streams, 20 turn guides, ect are all ready helpful and I think you present information in a relatable and understandable way. Thanks for these guides and also it's great to see a VC game. I remember you saying people don't watch them as much so I'm happy this one slipped through. Take it easy man and I appreciate what you do.

Use the maximum of the new bloodlines mechanic while at it - ranged vampire armies, tons of winds of magic, mass lahmian agents, all the good stuff. Would be nice one to watch I think!

    A great tactic with public order, that is actually kind of necessary when playing on legendary, is to just let provinces revolt and keep 1 'defending' army to move around all your provinces destroying rebel armies constantly.
    These are the benefits:
    -free gold
    -free experience
    -free items
    It's a great way to get extra cash. Bit cheesey and makes the game too easy though. Especially on vampire counts which is the easiest faction to do this on. You'll often build up a large number of 'famous battle sites' by doing this and have access to the most powerful units very early on without ever needing to build recruitment buildings.
    I usually end up quitting the game and starting another one after doing this for a while though because it gets too easy and boring. It's my biggest problem iwth warhammer and total war games in general. Most of the challenge is right in the beginning and then it just becomes a boring steamroll. Unless you purposely make bad decisions to make the game harder for yourself.

    I think the rapid expansion is a habit most have coming from other TW titles, where you blitz large chunks of the map.

Repeat.

    The sylvanian crossbowmen and handgunners don't actually replenish over time, idk why it says that.
    Every time you awaken a von carstein lord, you can recruit another crossbowmen unit, and the last one also unlocks a handgunner unit. The von carstein lords have a skill they can unlock that also gives you an extra crossbowmen unit, so that should be a total of 6 crossbowmen units. Pretty neat imo.
    If they die or are disbanded they can be recruited again like RoRs can.
    This is really fun, I'd vote for another episode if only for the entertainment. That, or your own Von Carstein campaign if you're interested.

    For a faction like VC where you generate much more gold from battle loots, you should keep a lord at state capital and constantly beat off revolts with help of city guards. I cant think of a better lord than Vampire lords for this role in the game. Healing and AoE buff will help you hammer and anvil. Once you unlock death wind you could basically solo revolts with your lord single handly. You can stabilize your public order after you've researched enough income technologies. This method will also generate you some magic items along the way.

    1:39:19 Legend is no doubt correct as far as this game is concerned but in the real world the main uses of low tier calvary was to scout, raid, and skirmish. They were much faster than infantry and could hit hard, do a lot of damage, and run for their lives faster than anything else could run them down. These aren't allowed to do that in this game.

    Are the Von carsteins a difficult faction? Because I have always found that the lack of ranged units is quite detremental for them especially later in the game, I seem to crush them every campaign (very hard difficulty) and when I play them it feels like their flying units (especially on the higher difficulties) can't even 1v1 fight enemy ranged units and cavalry is quite underwhelming unless you cylce charge and that takes a lot of attention otherwise your units get wiped out.

    Actually kind of surprised you bothered to honor that VC alliance. I though you'd jump at the chance to move back into the Vampire's home territory.
    Echoing everyone else, don't bother with the toxic trolls, just keep streaming!
