One of my closest allies has been paid millions to stay out of the huge war that’s coming. Poverty and desynchronisation spread through Europe like wildfire. It’s going to take skill and determination to get through this, as well as banter & rule-lawyering, in this latest episode of Failing to Form Germany – your favourite Victoria 2 multiplayer series.

    Check out Gilded Destiny here: https://aquilainteractive.io/gildeddestiny/ Wishlist Gilded Destiny on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2189430/Gilded_Destiny/ – this is an upcoming grand strategy alternative to Paradox that I’m genuinely pleased to have as my first ever sponsor. It’s my own war on poverty.

    For the record, Nurse Reno returned to the community some time after this campaign was played and produced Igor_puir mods which are known for having a good economy.

    Well gentlemen God has L burgundy live another week and I’m about to make it everyone’s problem oh no welcome back to the Bavaria series everyone war is coming first of all in this intro I’ll give a recap of the situation in the campaign then I’ll tell you about this

    Video’s sponsor guilded Destiny followed by my usual updates and links then we’ll get into the action of this crazy War full of massive battles mental breakdowns out of syns rule arguments all to come in the latest episode of failing to form Germany in the last part the jewel

    Monarchy declared war on burgundy to seek revenge for the humiliating 1 V1 loss he previously had but this time I joined the jeel monarchy who is my traditional long-term Ally I prevented a skill issue and we were victorious burgundy is a loose can and he was starting to get very powerful and

    Slipping out of the control that I had over him in that amazing war that we fought together in Parts 14 and 15 the player on the duel monarchy is being replaced however as I said at the end of last episode by the most recent Vinland player who Big Weevil The Arcadian cycle

    Crushed to form Arcadia there are a few more substitutes and roster changes as usual as we head into this new session Poland Lithuania the Ottoman Empire India but also the Russian Empire SAR virtual Rock is now on the throne in the last episode Russia went through a devastating time the entire Asian hugbox

    Attacked and Poland Lithuania opportunistically joined to get his ruthenian accepted pots the PLC and Albans are very closely Allied which means that Russia and all that entails is my natural Ally the Asian hugbox the gigantic Alliance encompassing that entire continent is now interfering in Western Affairs and moving towards

    Europe Russia is their first Target but who knows what’s next in the last part of the Ottoman Empire was absolutely terrified that they were coming for him and accordingly he mended his relations with me apologized for joining Wars against me so that his western border is safe as the incoming hordes from the

    East attack that’s mutually beneficial cuz I don’t want to have to worry about the Ottoman Empire will I fight my main rival the Albans the final thing to recap is that Scandinavia who hasn’t intervened directly on the European continent for decades is seeking his CES on Holstein

    And Pomerania now that the British Isles are secure without any possibility of a jeal monarchy comeback his deao vassel England is securely in place to defend that Scandinavia is very powerful he’s pretty much the only true Naval power in the world and he has a vast Empire including most of Africa surely he’s

    Very wealthy throughout this campaign you’ve heard many countries complaining of a terrible economy it’s been a common theme and I haven’t actually touched on it yet in any intro or analysis section to sum it up there’s been an issue with this version of The Mod which I do link

    In every description in the series one there are less gold mines in the world overall which does something to the money supply and messes up the economy two clergyman really want to buy luxury goods more and this is funded by your education budget so everyone’s education budget is massively overinflated to

    Combat some of these economic problems Dempsey added a stimulus decision on sikim which gives every player in the world some money and also the pops of every player country some money to increase the overall money supply now onto the sponsorship of this video gilded Destiny which may interest

    You gilded Destiny is an upcoming Grand strategy game set in the industrial revolution where you can guide any country through a detailed economic simulation an in-depth population system politics diplomacy and war with microm manageable units does that sound familiar to anyone as I said this is an

    Upcoming game and it’s in development so this sponsorship is just about raising awareness wish list guilded Destiny on Steam and follow their Kickstarter page if you should choose to support them on here later down the line they’re offering a lot of parks such as Alpha access now I’ve already covered gilded

    Destiny a bit on some live streams where we analyze some of the dev Dy videos on their YouTube channel and if you want to learn more about guilded Destiny I’d highly recommend going there and watching those it was the one about Warfare that first really piqued my

    Interest as’s a very cheeky nod to a certain other game and a certain other company in this video I have to say that the team at Aquila interactive have been so kind and receptive even when we critiqued their game or gone off on completely nonsensical tangents as we

    Often do in those streams and if you join their Discord they’re very welcoming and to feedback so overall I’m quite excited about seeing what guilded Destiny has to offer let’s let them cook and yeah they are completely perfect fit for this Channel and a very natural thing for me

    To do my first sponsorship on you know there’s another subplot in this series which is you can see me going through YouTube monetization issues and then getting a sponsorship but the main plot is that everyone’s mobilizing and the Albans is preparing to attack me but just before we get into that remember to

    Like the video subscribe if you haven’t already check out the following links to support the channel and engage in the community I just built a new pc as you can probably already tell this new pc is completely silent so there’s less annoying background noise in the microphone and it’s already speeding up

    The video editing process it’s so much faster and smoother to work with so I’d like to once again thank everyone so much for all the support whether it’s on patreon on my streams or just your general viewership and engagement it’s allowed me to invest back in the content

    Creation with a great new pc like this what country are you I’m du monarchy oh right okay Ben Ben a single word invokes so much dread it’s kind of a predicament right now right been told Italy’s dipping out like he’s been paid off to not help you

    In your War because it looks like elans are going to attack you soon right now I’m not really of the mind that I’m going to abandon my La my you know game long defensive Ally for nothing you know they just came in and were like yo quit

    The war but it’s kind of a predicament cuz you know it will be a hard War it’s it’s kind of far the borders are a little you know scuffed you are able to send troops to me through uh okay lizard yeah lizard you need a I don’t know dude

    This is a private conversation no it’s okay we can let we can let Judas in here yeah Mr Carri it look I know it sucks but I’d rather take literally 5% of the world’s money then like fight a war that’s dead broke and doesn’t get me anything million is not worth our

    Alliance it’s actually cool it’s fine lizard yeah I get it I want to be clear I don’t want to throw you under the bus but if if you look at my country like I need money and I need like a navy and I need yeah I know to do some actual test

    And we need to finish off Aragon once and for all I mean I can give you guys Money traders no don’t say that all I’m worried about is them getting a bigger Alliance so them maybe getting Poland well I mean we could pull Russia in he

    Would like to get the Polish land yeah are they still Tru not sure bar you will probably join the other Site now I’m just warning you heads up I did take a lot of boot camp and watch a lot of tutorials and stuff but this is my first technical competitive game in real war ah you’ll be fine I’ll tell you what to do all right hopefully I won’t

    Make a blunder but I’ll follow your lead yeah you’ll have some atach is telling you what to do yeah oh yeah we’ve got scandy ah okay opens up a whole new front that’s good yeah and they can take care of the blockades I’m actually surprised G’s doing this cuz I know he’s

    Doing that stuff in Asia well there’s going to be a naval Coalition going in on Japan so that’s going to at least put some damage on the hug box like they’re going to be taking Japanese States who’s in this uh naal attack on Japan Americans Scandinavia I think that’s it well once I get my Navy

    Up and going I’d certainly like to join in maybe snag Taiwan or something oh [ __ ] there’s going to be a Waran panic Mo everyone Panic Mo be who were you yeah V Rock you’re going to be in the war because Poland’s in it and we can’t have Poland have all his troops over against me and you know makes sense for you to fight him do you

    Have trues with the Asians yeah you do you got a couple of years of safety okay I have I have burgundy spared so that means I can declare very soon sure we’re ready got L is okay Jo monik you can stay there okay that’s fine the rest just behind the lines

    Behind my front lines somewhere ready for ready to defend from enemy attacks we’ll do bro what is this you guys are going to call in half the world against the elans man oh what’s it like to get half the world called in oh no I think that sounds like a serious diplomacy issue

    Nothing personal I just want my Pomerania it’s extremely personal okay DM here’s half a million dollars enjoy thank you thank you Execute Order [ __ ] 66 boys then we can finally do it all right we’re ready ready for battle virtual Ro you need to join ASAP no you

    Already did it got nenta too wait we got you we got Naru the [ __ ] is that it’s for bavia man it’s for bavia bavia you don’t get to bring friends come on man I’m the war declarer man I declared the War I’m actually ging the full front border DM oh where’s Poland the absolute State oh I have a trus of burgundy as well for two years oh nice I still need money man I still need money God damn it the poverty mod is really good though very engaging I just

    Noticed I thought all ofation what the actual [ __ ] they’re all in a hug box are you serious yeah that’s that’s that’s the game you got a problem I love playing the O welcome to this campaign some of these troes I didn’t even know about spun you havia remember you gang banged Burg

    H you did that remember I mean yeah you did but there’s also this Troth of Russia and Poland which is uh also interesting hey DM join this attack in berno in Mia let’s do it since Poland’s not in there’s Poland ber po wait Poland isn’t how did he join oh he held a

    Defensive call right don’t launch this attack forget it foret it forget it okay Russia do you want to join this we can get you in I’m already in are you already in he’s in it mate okay great great yeah mooving into Poland China’s got troops in Poland look

    At this dsei doesn’t want them to be in months or launch troops for 3 months so be aware of that cuz he should have announced three Months okay right um okay so uh basically um let’s attack the Albans we are on a time limit until burgundy get his ass in this all right I’m going to give Russia 200k and DM 200k thanks man I mean if there’s no battles going on you could Shadow

    Front yeah anyone who’s not in a battle can but I’m I’m doing a battle so see how let Go oh who’s this [ __ ] gizer that took over the battle Joe Moni move up to the front Lane I have lizard deal right now why you guys only fighting one battle you see there’s something called money that none of us have yeah poverty mod don’t get me wrong but if you’re in poverty wouldn’t be the idea just to attack fast before you completely run

    Out I think we have though that’s that’s the thing that’s the thing why would you deck a war if you don’t have M I’m researching all the Texs to get money I’ll be able to make money soon I mean if Scandinavia is not making money then who the [ __ ]

    Is this is why Asia is going to surpass Europe because we’re all poor while they’re like living it up in their Ivory Tower uh can you just do your three attacks up in the north I’ll launch another attack on our F I can’t reinforce that’s the thing I’m still

    Shadow funed is there ever a situation where you will not be shadow funed in this War uh if you give me money we upgrading factories man okay man I have like 200,000 unemployed [ __ ] people from the [ __ ] vland I mean you’re going to have to do something because

    Those Tru is here we have until 2 years 1886 yeah those two years will pass pretty quickly when this war ends up being a two-p speed War cuz we’re not even doing anything yeah I think we need another stimulus yeah let’s get another stimulus where’s Dempsey when you need

    Him we need another stimulus so this is a pretty stressful first war let’s got a stimulus first war there’s only one battle where is it the elans are just sitting on their money I’m sick of it yeah they had 10 million in the bank took half of that so they only have like

    3.5 million so Rob treasury CB right listen wait where’s scandi where the [ __ ] he’s there tell him to get his finger out his ass and fight the war this is where they tell him they’ll give him like all his close has given us any money no money

    All right I am now producing more iron than I use I got a four tank General still losing well first of all defunding Sawmills because apparently that’s not a good investment anymore poverty mod Is that attack going well uh no cuz we get out rolled it should be okay just keep it going keep it going keep your four attacking it okay just make sure you do not cycle him out yeah he yeah all right anyway scandy can you land behind the elans please

    Behind the Elan like Pomerania yeah that’s what you mean what you can do you can launch your three battles okay but you can also land ining behind them thre an encirclement You [ __ ] [ __ ] [ __ ] the Ottomans again this I hate them like every time [ __ ] [ __ ] what do you do to keep the Ottomans off start of last session I talked to them hey we’re cool right just go after yeah cool then they join a war against me and then he’s all

    All apologetic about joining that war against me okay I definitely won’t fight you this time joins again fool me once no one’s getting fooled they’re the ones who goes the suicidal [ __ ] War getting my voice is gone from this [ __ ] I’m done just going to fight the war I

    Got attack you got like the Christian Bale Batman voice right now where where where I’m [ __ ] done with this Commissioner Gordon reinforce this battle I’m Batman the Ottoman Empire can we trust him reinforce the battle men just want to watch the world men just want to watch their pop

    My for attack sit in my for attack where’s my John [ __ ] H Cena his middle name is H I’m in my four defense that’s what I me I mean you guys do have a lot of this country occupied if you just keep these battles I have no

    Money and no [ __ ] many such cases I mean if a is joining there going to be taking [ __ ] off SPID join I’m going to be asking Italy and Spain to join because they got the otoman cancer again cu yeah [ __ ] them get Ethiopia too I don’t know what that

    Doing cond you’re the least manipulatable Victoria 2 player come down a channel dude just call me in honestly [ __ ] it okay come down a channel door please yeah’s why you guys why you in your SP you want yeah get I want to talk to the otoman player in a

    Different Channel that’s why I’ve said it three times do you have any idea the past Diplo that this ottoman country has done uh Nar didn’t send me anything and I’m being yelled at by all of his allies to join so I’m assuming this is what those people aren’t his allies they’re

    Literally [ __ ] they were Honestly by who them it was crafter and Dempsey as well Dempsey is bullshitting like if you can show me like screenshots of your Diplo or whatever with Nar then I won’t join I have I have no idea try I don’t know it was all verbal last week oh yeah

    I’ll [ __ ] message Nar no I don’t have any written Diplo with him he’s more of a verbal guy yeah I’m leaning towards is not joining cuz I’m probably being manipulated or whatever oh I think you are I’ll get back to you in a few minutes sure okay Cool right okay I might be getting the aans to stay out by telling him the actual Diplo that was done with this country cuz nark gave him nothing and those guys have just manipulated him really to join oh okay cool this war was so stressful it [ __ ] my voice oh my Lord

    Why is my where is she see you know I know where the money is it’s all where’s Rachel wait wait say where’s Reno where’s Reno Adrian where is God of cheese where is heedy said stimulus man where is she where’s Reno you’re my lawyer i’ I’ve murdered a

    Lot of people God of cheese with an ice pick I murdered God of cheese with an axe to the forehead that’s that’s exactly what there’s a funny message disolving in a btub in Hell’s Kitchen I said stimulus and them said yes yeah he said yes stimulus boys this is going to

    Bring me some infrastructure I’m going to be able to help pay off my 700,000 debt all right guys here’s what’s going to happen we’re going to have somebody request a grant that’s over 10 million we’re going to say it was an accident but then we’re going to launder that

    Money to each member of the alliance so when they check the save later they don’t see 10 million he’s requesting the stimulus is this a certified lizard pause I mean I do have to announce so he knows it’s the 19th I think I got him out I don’t know I’m [ __ ] bankrupt or

    Not well not yet technically but I’m I’ve got no money we’re getting a stimulus mate oh good okay basically Italy just Garrison the Automan area with hills if that happens hey 100K that’s all I get to be honest it’s a bit disappointing your pops also got a ton of money

    Too separate events go buy some cracks oh what the [ __ ] I’m getting money dude I’m funding my Army and I’m losing 18,000 a day now instead of 700k I’m only 600k in De a wasn’t in the game apparently either good we’re not reverting we are not reverting let have his

    That that’s completely on him if you can’t get in the game fast and you can’t even tell anyone wait I didn’t get the the stimulus thing because I couldn’t click it because I was tapped down you rehosted so quick I think that’s that is quite literally your own fault ha we got

    This virtual Rock I think there’s two things I told you to do that you didn’t do that would have prevented I was doing them could have pulled back I mean you’re getting encircled again are you going to get wiped there what’s going I’m going to prevent the wipe it’s

    Actually delaying them from reinforcing the other battles if anything you know actually [ __ ] it I’m keeping this attack going reinforce it the problem is I just don’t have any money the problem is your entire Army gone in circle the money doesn’t contribute to how you had your

    Army in a position where it could get instantly encircled all right it did because I would have I’ll send over my four tank if you have any backline move up through that open province in Pomerania and just encircle two of those battles scandi yes do it yeah I don’t

    Have units for this man like dude what why does scandy not have units you’re like the number one world P hey reinforce Berlin all right nice my four my four guys in there pull out the forest DM as well skner Navy I’d try to commit to that prow attack because like just take

    All those units from that Forest battle and you can like encircle batt not going to get my for is [ __ ] him up in Berlin [ __ ] great Oban is 50% L exhaustion like when he gets to like 70 he’s pretty much [ __ ] scy help that this that’s a massive I don’t know if it’s something we can sustain but I’m doing it you also have to attack that 30k we can just reinforce SW M now go go into the force too yeah oh [ __ ] dude this is this is

    Yes you have to um reinforce that battle Pomerania you’re currently no Commander with a SC send something into there I’m doing it I’m doing it I mean their entire Army maybe pull some of your excess out of Berlin cuz you already have that one we have encircled all but like 70k they moved

    Into the forest how’ the Polish get there I think this is where they sign how’d the Polish get there come on that’s not CED anymore how the poish they retreated from Mas pritz walk okay we’re just going to have to follow up okay is that a retreat behind

    Lines retre behind L clearly a retreat behind lines okay yes it is H wait why are we paused uh it’s they retreated behind lines that is behind lines that is literally the most blatant example of behind lines I’ve ever seen you got delete where the [ __ ] is demp he’s in their

    Channel he’s going to rule in their favor unless we move him in here everyone move into their Channel everyone move into their Channel doesn’t matter it’s behind look at how we did our encirclement that’s how you’re supposed to do an encirclement how we did it in Russia you guys can notot do

    It like that what’s your opinion Dempsey making [ __ ] up muted and if those were the rules we would have just left wait wait wait wait hold on hold on guys it’s pretty obvious the line is from like swimmer and day to Pres to Berlin no like that’s the

    Line should have had troops should have had troops there that’s not how the line work doesn’t matter it doesn’t matter you this all the my argument actually changes depending if I’m in the room you are such a hypocrite you say this be you know why the retreat behind line rules

    Exist so you don’t have to have units on every [ __ ] no bro that’s not behind L what the fu this J I made my choice what’s your opinion dempy I’m going to agree with the DM and and inside don’t wait wait wait no no no one

    Second look at how we did no in Russ it doesn’t matter if just because you choose to do something doesn’t mean what you’re doing is not against the give me one second just for your favor what I saw is I saw troops go from scharen to Nan then attack North so because there

    Were the last troops that were there were from the danubian um danubian hey hey virtual Rock Virtual Rock Retreat to Brasov now you’ll be safe and that’s not behind the lines apparently oh if it if we have to delete it then he has to delete when we no you have you have to

    It’s been a pleasure frequenting your establishment good job good job guys was I the one who had to notice that to be fair we should have had something in that [ __ ] BR the one who had the GM demp like the whole point of the retreat behind lines rules is that you don’t

    Need to have units in every [ __ ] Province I love that we have to the when there’s a rule dispute cuz he’s Tapped Out playing fox very cool this is why I tell people to play the [ __ ] can you C the game professional rule lawyer big Sneedville just focus on reinforcing

    The north hey China is joining on an offensive guys dies that’s not going to work doesn’t work like that you can’t get them to announce and then that suddenly means you can win the war by just launching them Offensive well this is where this campaign’s going then Ians and seing Nation ruining and calling in China that won’t help him nice where where have spok where have I seen this before where have we seen it people Nation ruining and calling in China I guess that’s pretty common

    Happens a lot it doesn’t actually wait I think I did that a bunch of times didn’t I yes you Did wait nunaa is on our side they’re going to get [ __ ] they better not get [ __ ] krono oh krono anoun to join July 29th Ethiopia as well what the hell why doesn’t make sense what they have mental dumb Think the things I have to do just to try inform Germany well that’s it ladies and gentlemen in the next episode we’re fighting the Asian hugbox the albian Confederation Poland Lithuania and the Ottoman Empire have fought well to hold on to the land that they still have left

    And they even encircled and destroyed pretty much the entire Russian army as it is now let’s do some analysis of the war the strategies and the diplomacy I didn’t end the episode on a rehost so there isn’t a save to take a war analyzer from right there so I’ll

    Show you one from the pr previous year 1885 you can get an idea of the casualties they’re roughly even 1.2 million each at this stage of the war but let’s go back in time now and look at what the Brigade counts were before the war one of the main reasons I

    Didn’t show it is cuz it sort of spoils which countries will be in the war like burgundy there’s always more to the Brigade counts in Mei the jeel monarchy wasn’t mobilized at the start of the war so those 95 brigades only came into play a bit later and he also hasn’t built up

    To his Force limit of about 50 he’s a newer player which is absolutely fine we were able to help him with micromanagement or the stuff that we could see but we couldn’t help him with internal things unfortunately something much less excusable from someone who should know better Scandinavia has 78

    Professional brigades sitting in Africa doing nothing at the start of the war so we can chalk them off those brigades have remained in Africa throughout the war lined up on The Batavian border alongside new Saran troops to combat a bavia that never joined the war in the

    War of the hugbox removal Squad in part 14 and 15 we really learned that the total Brigade counts at the start of a war aren’t the most important thing and they can be misleading it’s no question that we significantly outnumbered them at the beginning of this war and that

    The Ottoman Empire joining did balance that out a bit regardless of the Diplomatic context for them joining but the most important thing was how the lbn and PLC messed up the start of this war in their opening position and strategy I don’t know the extent to which the Albans knew Scandinavia was going

    Against him and I also don’t know how much the Poland Lithuania substitute knew knew about the situation but assuming they both had full knowledge then the albian shouldn’t have been pushed that far up and the PLC should be there supporting with his entire Army it would be no use trying to split his

    Forces between the Russian front and the Western Front we have an overall much larger Brigade count but we are separated into three different areas Scandinavia Russia and the danubian if they concentrated their forces effectively against one of those threats first they could have had some very good

    Early results in the war and even if Poland gets occupied by Russia look what happened later this exposed one of our shortcomings in how we handled the war there wasn’t that much coordination or communication with Russia we did fight mostly independently there was no talk of any overriding

    Strategy to link up our forces with Russia and unite the fronts somehow I’m not sure how we could have done it but we didn’t try it at all and we didn’t talk about it Scandinavia has completely unlimited access to the Eastern front he can just move there with transports and

    He even borders the PLC but there wasn’t a single Scandinavian troop on that front I think a better strategy would have been for Russia to focus his efforts in the north along the coastline instead of pushing through Central Poland and completely exposing himself and it would give us a very good chance

    Of linking up fully with Russia as we dominate the coastline and it was on that Coast that we saw some of our biggest successes and huge encirclements furthermore the southern area of the front is dominated by the Ottomans so any attempts to push through Silesia or Slovakia wouldn’t go very well speaking

    Of the Ottomans a big mistake that I made was when trying to pressure the Ottoman Empire to not join in the war I didn’t point out the elephant in the room the Asian hugbox I failed to mention the ottoman Empire’s main diplomatic reason for not joining the

    War which was born out when he had to transfer land to India I’m sure the enemy Alliance was telling him a lot of reasons to join the war like he’ll get Hungarian land and that obviously ended up being a lot more compelling than some vague reasons about the main ottoman

    Player’s past diplomacy which I couldn’t produce cuz it was all verbal anyway during the war the Ottoman Empire transferred two regions to India who’s also being substituted and there was also a money transfer which is very helpful to the enemy Alliance the Asian hugbox funding that Alliance means that they pretty much

    Have no economic problems whereas for us it’s been absolutely devastating even some of our friends who are not in the war like England and Arcadia have terrible economies in a situation like that you’d be expecting them to fund us but we had a lifeline and it came from the albian Confederation in hindsight

    His massive Grant to Italy of anywhere from 3.5 million to 5 million don’t know the exact number was a blunder because he ended up joining later but it was also a mistake in general because Italy used that money to fund our alliance in the war I understood that Italy

    Receiving a massive Grant could help us which is one of the reasons I didn’t overreact or complain about him making that deal so those millions that the Albans gave to Italy flowed through our alliance until it dried up all of our economies were in the red for the whole

    War but there’s a big possibility that that money might have been the difference between us going bankrupt and not going bankrupt bankruptcy occurs in this game when your interest payments exceed the total income of your country with we’re all spiraling further and further into debt but we’re not reaching

    That point yet the albian confederation’s massive treasury that is built up for years was one of their alliance’s biggest assets and he sort of squandered it I just wish that when we occupied Prague again we could have raided his bank vault and gotten the rest all right thank you so much for

    Watching I hope you’ve enjoyed the longest episode of the Bavaria Series so far I know there was a huge gap between the last episode and this I had a Christmas holiday I built a new pc and it also happened to be the longest episode have had to edit but as I said

    1. In the one (and only) multiplayer Vic2 game I played, this is what I hated MOST. Is every war became a world war and nobody was willing to lose a province or two

    2. I think one of the best differences between this campaign and others we’ve seen in the past is the general attitude of the players. While there’s some of the typical doomerism or getting mad or whatever, the players here are almost all actually being fairly positive about things, even when they lose. Elbians didn’t get super mad when he lost. Even burgundy, who lost everything, didn’t rage, he just lost it (turned into the Joker). It’s not a game where it seems like people get particularly angry.
      Another great example of how these players have more composure than other games we’ve seen is the gentlemen’s agreement war. I cannot imagine that happening in any other game we’ve seen so far.
      It’s amazing to see, I think it’s one of the reasons for this being such a great campaign.

      Edit: it’s so over
