The betrayel of burgundy is heart-breaking , danubians and burgundians fought side by side against all odds cluthing victory from the jaws of defeat . In the end the interests of danubia outweighs alliance and danubia lived long enough to see its self become a villian
I love this because DM has gone: It's so over (first 2 wars) We're so back (next few wars) It's so fucking over (Scotland) Ah, its fookin ovah mate (Rest of England) It's unequivocally over (Burgandy disaster) It's back again! (Now)
Burgundy really should have realised that he was gonna be backstabbed and made deals with scandi. But ever since he blundered that one war he has just been along for the ride and not really strategising
Scandinavia has no reason at all to help Burgundy, there's no possible deal he could have made with him. Scandinavia has everything he wants from the DM, and Burgundy's natural ally against the Danubians (The Elbians) has Scandinavian cores. Burgundy should've allied Elbians and Poland before the war so they could get the defensive call to arms to help Burgundy.
Spudgun, thank you for your content. While vicky2 isn't the most popular or modern paradox game there is some thing special about it and seeing other People enjoy it just as much as i do after so many years brings me true joy. Привет из России
Wow, all 3 Burgundy wars were played in one session? That's impressive, but poor lad didn't even got time to savour his comeback for week. I imagine he was exhausted too, mb if 3rd war was played in new session he could had bled DM and Danubia more or even call in Scandi
That betrayal was heartbreaking. It’s like that scene in the critically acclaimed 2019 movie Joker. Where joker thinks his life has been turning around, but then he realizes he has been imagining all of that, and reality comes crashing down on him. Pray for joker 😢
for one time im actually rooting for spudgun to fail, its unimaginable but it can sometimes happen, this is like a fine story where the protagonist isnt always a saint
It's funny england gets to hang out with all the europeans politics now, like Scandinavia's little brother is finally old enough to hang out, but still isn't part of the group
Honestly, I would've threw SM under the bus and make an agreement with Burgundy for transfer his german lands. Even if Italy hates him nation ruining just to declare a war on them is a Burgundy W like we saw in previous episodes.
Burgundy could've also done some diplo to try and get Elbians to fight on his side, that way Elbians had a defensive call to arms on standby that would've kept you in check
I feel like there was a missed opportunity to use the knightfall cutscene from SW Battlefront 2. This one: "It was a silent trip. We all knew what was about to happen, what we were about to do. Did we have any doubts, any private traitorous thoughts?..."
theoretically lets say bergundy dies and if spud leans into scandy to help him form germany we could possibly see a european hugbox vs the asian hugbox
States are too god damn expensive in that mod. Especially for the reunification CB. Insane that Burgundy can completely come back in one war but you struggle to take even a single state when you win.
Not even relating to how awesome burgundy's comeback was he's just your natural ally now against your basically now permanent enemy of the elbians, idk why you're saying dm is your natural ally by that point they really weren't they can't even help you against elbians that was a terrible diplomatic move, you could have gotten alsace for free to not intervene and had a really strong ally who would be your enemy so far down the road for the rhineland province it doesn't even matter. Just my opinion of a true machiavelian run™
He didn't offer me Alsace for free, I would have to demand it in exchange for neutrality. And if I'm demanding a state for neutrality that's not a very alliance-building action. To ally Burgundy we have to come to an agreement where one of us gives up cores/accepted to the other, which is tenuous, and Burgundy has a track record of these deals falling apart with the Elbians already. Also the Dual Monarchy can very much help me against Elbians, especially since Burg and Elbians will probably be allied now so we just fight together. Hope that makes sense
Weekly reminder that jaeger thought he could do an encirclement in the ocean. Also week 13 of asking spud for a full China campaign (yes, I know how his production cycle works but at this point I’m committed to the bit).
I belive in the Virtualrock turnaround. Especially after being the Russia in the PLC series, and having to sell his soul and pride to the Asian hugbox in order to survive against Spuds Poland. This man is up for a redemption arc. Possibly beating first the PLC with potential Otto help, and then to turn around and slam into India or Turania with them. Becoming the bulwark of Europe in the Process.
In retrospect, Ben probably should have just pushed up to the end of Burgogne and held there until spud's army was 100% over to get the least casualties but either way they were gonna win
High quality video, as the rest of the series spud, well done! Mind i ask you to put out the specs of the new computer when you’ll build it, maybe also the tools if any where used? Thanks and good work and happy Christmas 👋
Burgundy is definitely one of the most entertaining nations to watch in this series, but I can see from the Danubian perspective how much of a loose cannon Burgundy could have become.
I swear Burgundy on this series is the embodiment of “nations have interests, not friends”.
based pfp
It appears it was in every nation's interests to remove Burgundy from the world map
Most intelligent country
@@Big_Sloppa well its 2 german nations and 1 french
there's a reason why in history burgundy was destroyed by germany and france lol
Burgundy died as a hero. Danubia lives long enough to see themselves become a villain.
However a villain that may form germany
It only takes one war to come back

Burgundy is NOT YET LOST! I want to belive.
also something b. chucker, i forgot
What happened to Burgundy reminded me of an old Kurdish saying: "We have no friends but the mountains."
Unfortunately, Burgundy has no mountains lol
I totally forgot loco was the original Bohemia. Good callback.
Everyone talking about Burgundy's Rise, Fall, Rise, and subsequent fall, but forget that PLC was considered a failed state for a while.
The betrayel of burgundy is heart-breaking , danubians and burgundians fought side by side against all odds cluthing victory from the jaws of defeat . In the end the interests of danubia outweighs alliance and danubia lived long enough to see its self become a villian
The live edits whenever Russia is shown is hilarious 😂😂
Lets see Paul Allens Arcadia next.
dude the danubian diplomacy game is on point this is some seriously fucked up stringhandling
THE DRAMA THE SUSPENSE THE HEARTBREAK
By the end of this its going to end in Danubian Germany being the Aragorn leading the men of the west against the evils coming from the east
I love this because DM has gone:
It's so over (first 2 wars)
We're so back (next few wars)
It's so fucking over (Scotland)
Ah, its fookin ovah mate (Rest of England)
It's unequivocally over (Burgandy disaster)
It's back again! (Now)
John P. Chucker!!!!
Wasn't burgundy willing to give you those states when you needed them? *SEEMS* like a poor backstab on your part.
Merry Christmas spud. Maybe one of these days I might join a mp
nooooo not burgundy

Skill issue :)
Holy shit this is not a drill
Failing to form Germany part 16
Dual monarchy wins too much. (FACT)
Even one win is too much, it needs to always lose.
I don't feel empathy for Burgundy, its funny in the short interaction, but hearing him all the playthrough would be unbearable lol
Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened....
The fact that DM almost made the SAME mistake honestly points to who the better ally should be.
The age old question:
Do you Ally the smart nation, who can grow strong enough to overthrow you?
Or the Strong but unskilled one you can boss around?
@@gabrieljoseozanan6989as people say, its better to have a smart enemy than a dumb friend

@@mikemandalorian9226have you never heard the saying “who needs enemies when i have friends like these”?

Burgundy really should have realised that he was gonna be backstabbed and made deals with scandi. But ever since he blundered that one war he has just been along for the ride and not really strategising
The Great Comeback made him blind to the true danger of Danubia

Damn right. I fucking love Spuds vic2 series. They're so highquality and well made, it's the same entertainment as watching a bigbudget movie.
Amen

I’m always the most eager for these episodes!
I never play Victoria 2, but I love these videos
4:34
Burgundy: "He's just standing there...menacingly!"
Scandinavia: "That's because he's about to menance you"
Wow, all 3 Burgundy wars were played in one session? That's impressive, but poor lad didn't even got time to savour his comeback for week. I imagine he was exhausted too, mb if 3rd war was played in new session he could had bled DM and Danubia more or even call in Scandi
Prediction: Ben recovers after his previous skill issue
I love how Italy just wants to mess up Burgundy like if this was England and France IRL.
That betrayal was heartbreaking. It’s like that scene in the critically acclaimed 2019 movie Joker. Where joker thinks his life has been turning around, but then he realizes he has been imagining all of that, and reality comes crashing down on him. Pray for joker 😢
#IstandwithJoker
Burgundy : You're awful Spudgun
Danubian : Me? I'm awful? Oh Yeah, How am I awful?
Burgundy has been clapped this entire game
Seeing as the guy who normally does this isn't here yet.
Weekly reminder that jaeger tried to encircle a navy in the ocean
first time ive watched a spud video and that wasnt one of the top comments when i scrolled down lmao
Sad to see ur boyfriend not showing up yet. Y'all "encircle funny jokes" mfs need to spend more time together
@@PvtRebelJaeger get off the alt
@@PvtRebelyo jaeger what’s good
@@PvtRebelTry to encircle a navy yourself, huh?

I have never ever before rooted for the enemy this much in a spudgun video.
for one time im actually rooting for spudgun to fail, its unimaginable
but it can sometimes happen, this is like a fine story where the protagonist isnt always a saint
It’s a spudgun tradition to save a DM that’s skill issuing out of existence.
The people of Europe in this game must be emotionally obsessed with yellow peril ideals
The moment I started to like Burgundy he gets jumped. Rest in peace to a real one

It's funny england gets to hang out with all the europeans politics now, like Scandinavia's little brother is finally old enough to hang out, but still isn't part of the group
Sad to see burgundy die like this but in dod it’s the natural conclusion that burgundy is removed once it loses once against DM and Bohemia
The great comeback was an anomaly, Burgundy couldn't overturn the tides of fate this time
Honestly, I would've threw SM under the bus and make an agreement with Burgundy for transfer his german lands. Even if Italy hates him nation ruining just to declare a war on them is a Burgundy W like we saw in previous episodes.
I am genuinely upset these events have transpired
Burgundy could've also done some diplo to try and get Elbians to fight on his side, that way Elbians had a defensive call to arms on standby that would've kept you in check
i think it was a shock to burgundy that spud dec'd on him
I BELIEVE IN THE BURGUNDIAN COMEBACK!!!
Spud could you show the cultural demographics in the next video? Particularly the new world and the ottomans
RIP Burgundy. If he wasn't in the way of Spud's vision for Germany, I'd love to have seen his resurgence in the campaign.
when will the failing to form germany part 17 come up?
I did say in this video
i can't wait for the burgandy comeback, favorite character
This video should really have been called the great betrayal, not only did spudgun betray his former ally but Poland did too
This is a realpolitik moment
pettition for spudgun to post links to savegames so we can see the world map ourselves
It's disgusting, ungentlemanly and straight up evil what you did to Burgundy.
Merry early Christmas spud! Thanks a lot for this fun Bavaria series and I wish you a happy holidays.
Just in time for food. Thanks!

tho the plc will have to die and u can prob get the ottomans to join

Just in time for my hour long shit
Holy crap... in the "Skill Issue Prevention" chapter... damn, it almost seemed like Burgandy could've won
I really feel bad how you betrayed Burgundy
i hope next time you go to grocery shop, you step in puddle and walk around whit wet socks!
yooooo bavaria series right when i needed it
Ngl i have TONS OF hype for the next episode: i hope for a save or a comeback made by the new tsar
Russia entering a second Tatar yoke....it's so over.
Looking at how the vinland built up his american country I dont have much hope for the DM.
What was bros industry
Not even relating to how awesome burgundy's comeback was he's just your natural ally now against your basically now permanent enemy of the elbians, idk why you're saying dm is your natural ally by that point they really weren't they can't even help you against elbians that was a terrible diplomatic move, you could have gotten alsace for free to not intervene and had a really strong ally who would be your enemy so far down the road for the rhineland province it doesn't even matter.

Impressive Arcadia formation, but not as impressive as Jaeger's naval encirclements
Weekly reminder that jaeger thought he could do an encirclement in the ocean.
Also week 13 of asking spud for a full China campaign (yes, I know how his production cycle works but at this point I’m committed to the bit).
Looking at that Russia, the Gulf of Ob is more of a Gulf of Cope
i know many others say it, but i do appreciate these, they're so well done
The great single monarchy, it's finally over.
hoi4 reddit encirclement!!!?!?!!!
I legitimately thought Spudgun was going to take Rhineland from the war.
Burgundy is really a wild ride in this campaign huh? lots of highs and lows!
