    I imagine this video can also double as some kind of weird ASMR sleep aid. Chase away the nightmares of Emperor Riesstiu IV the Second coming back from the grave shouting "I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS DESERT SCUM" with the sound of my voice telling the tale of the Kushan Exodus.

    Imagine the Kushan begging the Kadesh to cease fire, for they both were of the same people. The Minbarri straight up surrendered at the verge of victory at the Battle of the Line. Also, love the details of they both still using same First Contact procedure, and the accidental friendly signal. Also, also, imagine Fleet Command orders all fleets to engage the Tiidani fleets to protect the only friend they have in the whole galaxy.

This is a level of quality completely alien to UA-cam as a whole, much less the 'lore' genre, which is attached to its slow pans of loosely related game screenshots and occasional 2d, silhouettes. Which may even move if your lucky.

    Why Bentusi sold them ion cannon in that critical moment for just 800 RU, was a question I never thought about when I was teenager, back then I believed Bentusi help the Kushan out of kindness. when HW2 came out I thought they must shared some common goal or vision for the future. Then in my 30s remaster was released, upon play again, I had a revelation the Bentusi is using this trade to threaten the emprise so they can get more influence in the 'console'. Now with the remaster become history, I once again thought about this question, I now have a better theory of what is going on. Bentusi is in the trade business kind like the space guild, by 'help' the Kushan they threaten the stability of the empire. If rule of the empire is shaken they can increase the price of everything they trade in the galaxy. Oh how much doomer I have become.

      It's a shame. two decades of waiting, just to get something that's really mediocre.
      The story is really bad. The CG cinematics are very odd looking and out of place. Maps are too small. Very few skirmish maps (Think only 5 or 4). The strategic and tactical aspects are lacking, doesn't help that the very small maps just forces you to blob your units all the time and the campaign can be finished in less that 7 hours.
      At least they got the aesthetics, graphics, and audio-design right. But thats it. Style over substance really.
