The Drunk Monarchy (Venice Part 5)
Vložit
- čas přidán 25. 08. 2024
- The alliance that fought the War of the Skill Issue is in shambles. Venice rebrands itself to accept the Greeks, Bohemia and the Danubians go to WAR, and the Dual Monarchy is spiralling into a pit of total despair and paranoia. The King that Venice turned to in our hour of need against Aragon is bringing shame to his once-great monarchy, coming up with ridiculous plans and turning on former friends. Will he do the right thing and abdicate so a real leader can take over?
Also in this part; the Chinese wars take more crazy turns as Japan continues the conquest. The result is millions dead as always. There are ominous signs as our old friend Spain is revealing his major plans for the campaign. At least the Americas are quiet (in-game, not in the voice chat) for now.

_Clicks on prestige reducing decisions when he could've just waited, become a great power and then form Italy much quicker_
Spudgun: "I'll pretend I didn't see that"
Even Spudgun is not immune to the skill-draining effects of the Funny Nation.
and get even more cores
Oh dont forget loses a core on a major sulphur province Izmir because of that as well.
Knowledge issue
I wonder if part of the Italy failures are due to the large number of options that for any other nation would be a no-brainer, but Italy is one of few with Cost-Benefit rolled into them for some reason. I think they play an MP version of DoD as well
Virtual rock loses 3 wars for land, one of them to AI, Russia goes southern and still doesn’t ragequit. Sparta loses Switzerland instant ragequit
But... but... Switzerland ! :(
Honestly VirtualRock is the player I respect the most in Spudgun videos. Poor guy is constantly getting partitioned, boxed in, portrayed as the villain in various videos, and he never rage quits.
Virtual rock is competent. Respect.
@@brigantiasmemerepository6439 finally snapped today
@@brigantiasmemerepository6439 Prasie for VirtualRock, everyone should behave like this! I thought VR would talk a lot to Green to click construct italy, but hes no dick. Hmm
GreenFors should've just used his people skills to defeat Burgundy
He would have lost harder that way lmaoo.
The war of the people skill issue
"in a drunken rage, the king of the dual monarchy attempted to declare war against the african nation of Ethiopia. This, on top of several previous incidents of severe alcoholism, meant that his cabinet finally forced him to abdicate without ceremony. It it said that the situation was so disastrous that diplomats from all across Europe were called to Paris to 'mediate'; Scandinavian officials were even asked to stage a mock invasion of England to persuade the ailing monarch."
I honestly loved the drunk king, hopeless, depressed, angry but fun 😂
@@lucabanchieri6288 my man
legit more hyped by the venice series than vicky 3
You will micro nothing and you will be happy.
Sums up people's opinion of vic3
@@thesigmamale2134 no
@@thesigmamale2134 you WILL use the people skills. You WILL make the diplomatic plays
I will use the uninstall button and play Victoria II.
I hope Bad Frank makes his comeback on DM. Would make for a nice "Alcoholic Monarchy"
I was thinking the exact same thing. Bad Frank is the hero we need right now.
In today’s news, a drunk and disorderly monarch pulls out a .357 revolver and threatens to execute an innocent merchant unless he agrees to be friends. Story at 11:00.
even tho they were already friends
Aggressive friend making
I wanna see spud do a series where he makes DM not a joke and not die
They usually don't die because they have so many accepted cultures and a great offensive border against Burgandy. Games where they die just end up being more interesting
poor greenfors :( . He didn't deserve to be humiliated more from his allies than in the war.
I mean the moment Greenfors threatened Spudgun into helping him through forming italy with savoy I lost any and all sympathy.
@@tyler89557 Well, that's called diplomacy. Venice right now, doesn't need DM. He needed him to defeat Aragon. If I was Venice I would change sides or just stay neutral. He still helped DM in his big war of skill issue. So, no re-payments left at all.
But greenfors tried to force him to ally.
Although Spud said "I had no intention to leave. I'm still your ally. " You can never know what happens when the hard times come.
Yes, if Venice forms Italy, DM will have a major enemy on his borders but you know, spud has more interest in ottomans rather than "the West".
Honestly, Greenfors is a good player. He just had a bad game, that's all.
@@berkeihlamur4160 he still needed DM because DM has all of northern Italy sphered. Greenfors was too drunk to realize that and that Spud rarely betrays his block
@@rpan1738 Well that's kinda True.
Based, off-the-cuff comment at 14:32
"What's Chinese for 'nation ruining?'"
"Xi Jinping!"
Everybody trash talks on GreenFors, but the Bohemia player is just the biggest meme so far. Holy shit, how can you fuck up every single step with that powerhouse of a nation but call out others as bad at the same time !? But not only that now he even lets others collect his own harvest. Just wtf.
I'll say they are equal level brain power.
Ok I finished the video, green is way lower on brain power, BOH does not abuse alcohol
That player would go on to do the same shit in the second to last Reno hosted game, where he was dying so insanely hard but no one wanted to help him because he would constantly shit talk his allies for losing.
@@jacobray8189 that makes me think, why not just ban them from start date GP's?
I know that VIC II is niche but you got to have at least one good replecement
@@stevenseagull4990 He kept bitching to have a chance and that his failures were a fluke/other people and he got those chances. Now no one wants to play with him
@@jacobray8189 fair enought
The entire course of the campaign in europe depends from the new players for Danubia and DM.
The Ottomans being basically dead also means that Italy (when it will be formed) won't just be a funny nation but may actually be able to do something and Hungary also looks better than in other campaigns.
Japan is also doing is job and keeping an eye on China to avoid the 3000 brigades monster in late game.
This may actually be a way more balanced campaign than i thought last week as long as someone actually stops Burgundy and Scandinavia from expanding further.
Succeeding in forming San Marco's Republic!!!
The literal spiral of a monarch who lost a war and never grew past it. Love it lmao, especially the breakdown at 8:35 after the peaceful asian music
GreenFors is the joker of Vic2, what is this?
Big Weevil reveals his comedic and philosophical genius once again:
"A child can beat up a baby."
I dont get how you can come out with such S tier content for so long but dont get the recongition you deserve.
Drunk monarchy was hauntingly well done!
My stomach dropped when I saw him threaten to form italy....
20:50 (bad frank comes to my mind) dont do that, dont give me hope ...
one of the best diplo guys I’ve ever seen
Friday again!
Spud you can’t expect us to wait for a whole week for another video, this is worse than waterboarding
Love that version of the Greek national anthem, and the timing of it.
Hello are you greek ?
I would like to speak to you if you are greek
This episode had me sweating. The whole time I was worried DM would click that button in some sort of personal revenge against you and I was literally waiting with bated breath every time you looked away from Europe, hoping desperately that when you went back there wouldn't be a magically formed Italy on your border.
It's so weird how religiously I watch this serious. That stupid doctor emoji gif always gets me
Greenfors has the brilliant idea of coping his small losses by... Drowning in alcohol
Drunk Greenfors, who would have thought that would have happened
These videos help me realize I don't actually have to be good at viccy to win, I just need to have good communication skills and work with my allies
Why would he ragequit he still got ireland and some english states. You should rename this series the skill issue wars
coping
@@amongstus4418 i myself sucked ass one time as dual monarchy in mp. Lost 2 great wars never gave up till they annihilated my hole army😂😂
The first war was devastating, the second a humiliation, with everyone complaining about him. The alcohol didn't help, and he should've just left when he was asking to leave. The Scandi move was probably the final nail in the coffin
@@stordoy yeah but who gives a fuck every vic2 player is a monke who cares about their opinion😂😂
Nice to see some justice with Russia forming
"A child can beat up a baby"
Greenfores has played as Burma and tibet in vic 2 yet fails as DM BRUH moment
im calling it, reno's gonna whoop some ass as the DM next episode
sheeeeeesh you read my mind, was just thinking about it
There is nothing quite like coming home to a spudgun video after a shit day of work. I have an unhealthy love of vicky2.
I was hoping Bad Frank would become the new DM, how my dreams were forsaken
I feel so bad for GreenFors in this like jesus
The editing on this episode is really on point.
YES!!!!! Also having a few pints [i think thats what you call it across the pond], can't wait to get home to watch this!!
Avanti ... San Marco?
Complete cliff hanger there with two incredibly important countries unmanned.
I hope the new players are still going to be open to Spud's overtures, especially DM
Finally after finishing lunch I’m ready to watch
11:06 this is what I’m here for: hot Cena on Cena action
Damn this was a wild ride of an episode, I wish it were longer hahaha
Anyways the DM and Danubia really weren't dead, but I guess it's like what the advice from eu4 says, losing a war isn't the motive to end a campaign! guess they never read that
Friday got a lot better for me after you started releasing the Venice series
Just as I was checking the channel perfect timing
Real sad. I only found your Channel trough Greenforce. Real sad how he gets bullied all the time
Medicine in 1848 is actually unforgivable.
Don't trust a drunken man with a gun.
Honestly wondering if he'll ever actually form Italy.
Great episode, very suspenseful
Drunken defenestrations and regime changes in Europe, from Paris to Munich, and from Moskva to Venice, as the Orient and the Dark continent gets even more decisive.
1848 is truly a revolutionary year
No fucking way I got an ad for improving your memory, no fucking way man
this is such a cluster fuck this campaign. I love it
Whatever happened to Bad Frank? I know hes banned or something, but why? I miss him, we miss him. He would have been perfect to shit on Greenfors in this episode.
He was too based and ascended to map game heaven. He spends the rest of his enternity drinking heavily and yelling at blaise to link his navy. Maybe one day we will be able to reach the epitome of based he had once touched so we could witness him again but sadly that day is far from here.
Best series yet
Ah, yes i love map games in youtube, my love for the skil issues is Big.
“A player much more skilled in diplomacy” Bad Frank?
I feel its fitting that in the series were spudgun is trying to from a good Italy there are clownish things happening around him all the time.
Cant wait for RedFors to go on DM next session
wouldnt be surprised if the person who was spamming something worth spud censoring the chat was that 13 year old with the lisp on japan
I’ve not even opened any videos this series and I already know Greenfors is playing DM
I'm honestly kind of sad we didn't get to see GrenFors get Battle of Adwa'd by the Ethiopians
Greenfors caused me secondhand embarassment. Rage, even.
kuyunundelisi abimden Arcadia bekleniyor
Skilfull, masterful, video
Yes more map games.
Also chat being blocked because banzai saying bad words again, iconic.
Greenfors is a walking skill issue
DM -Guess I’ll just leave to Africa.
Everyone - Why??!?!
Kinda feel sad for the Greenfors bullying, he was a good boi with some skill issues up until that point.
greenfors very relatable
"onions bohemia" im dead
show pops u got and whats accepted etc between sessions, i wanna see how stuff developes :)
9:46 Words to live by
I haven’t seen this much alcoholic cope since Badfrank
My disappointment that drunk monarchy had nothing to do with badfrank stepping in is through the roof.
Why did Bohemia and Danube fight after working together ? I dont get it
I'm sad for Greenfors
The republic of San Marco is just another name for Venice by the way
Why is there someone that goes completely mental in every campaign?
Can you do an Ottoman playthrough? Would love to see you pull some great diplomacy as you really need it because of your starting position
!!!!BAD FRANK FOR VENICE!!!!
VOTE NOW!
Let’s go Venice
The rebels after poland simply gives pskov to russia: *B.R.U.H*
Drunk dual monarchy? Is that Badfrank?
Wtf does migrating to Africa even mean? You have plenty cores and accepted pop left. That's just dumb. I'm sure Greenfors is a nice guy normally but that was grating to watch.
Just when I was about to go sleep lol
I mean, for Sparta both Burgundy and Bohemia are against him and will be in all future wars so unless some other great power gets involved in this mess there's no chance of him coming out on top in the struggle for Germany
based
You guys were too harsh against greenforest
Honestly baffled at choosing southern expansion route. Its not like PLC is some unbeatable god nation.
Ok there was a good reason for what Russia did xd.
I guess Russia was worried he would stay allied to Scandi and Burgundy.
Q: what's Chinese for nation ruining?
A: xi jinping
xD 14:40
GreenFors is the Sergei Taboritsky of the Dual Monarchy
Fuck its only Thursday
Where can I get the full version of the AraGONE song from last episode?
How much longer until we get the next episode? The suspense is killing me.
Be down to see you play in Asia. Maybe Japan or trying to westernize China
:basedmode:
Hey Spudgun,
I was thinking about recording a game of my own, and maybe uploading it also. But I have no clue where to even begin. What recording software do you use?
Sooo, if AI takes over DM, doesnt it form Italy in Sardinia Piemont?
Oh shit
AI isn’t going to take over DM, unless they were a lot more dead than this
Spud’s internal shambles with delaying formation of Italy via prestige and decision issues is arguably the largest skill issue here
