*Hey! I get loads of comments asking me to play Stellaris so I have **ua-cam.com/video/MaHMUNAlluA/v-deo.html** if you want there to be more in future please give it a watch otherwise there probably wont be more tbh*
You gotta make an OnlyFans now.
So Alex, after you got 5k or more likes in this video, can you continue conquer all of the United Kingdom as the Jacobites?
Did you miss out on the Highland clearances? Local Scottish nobility forced clans to immigrate or starve during a period of land repossession. It's why there's such a stark difference between the land population.
More Stellaris, please!
I think I solved your mystery on why your units attacked so suddenly... looks like you had a fallback line at the front and for some reason they just went nuts to get it suddenly.
Alex: *Names mountaineers the highlanders*
Also Alex: *Doesn't give them pipe bands*
Hello man from nassau hahaa (this Janroelof22)
Rambler: nearly looses to the Yorkists and doesnt push.
The divsions hes controlling: fine I will do it myself
"controlling"
Good plot twist
@ oh thanks I often have a problem with spelling
@@amalekita5009 that's not the issue, Alex the Rambler is just not controlling his divisions 🤣
@@jank4173 yeah rambler only knows one way of defeating the enemie
BaTtLe PlAnNiNg
Gameplay starts at 6:44
Thank you
Mr Sister Fister
hol up
Your welcome
Tin Of Beans Can Of Beans thanks Caleb
Thank you so much
I still don't understand why youtube demonetized the word
W
A
R
because war bad
It doesn't, Alex is just paranoid
123 yes they do
They demonetized the word Afghanistan
War is pronounced like wh*re tbh
@@firstnamelastname7991 For real though
Just use the word kerfuffle instead of war, it'll make everything a lot easier and funnier.
洄川鈴番 yes
@Yeetus Maximus exactly
Or clusterfuck just rolls of the tongue
The cold kerfuffle
洄川鈴番 i’m going to justify a kerfuffle goal
"Troubles" would be a very British way avoid the word war.
Because the troubles were something the British caused, now shut up and watch.
“Stop attacking! Stop attacking”
*has the troops attached to a fall back line in enemy territory*
I love how he considers actual military tactics as 'cheesing them' 21:30
Alex the (G)rambler: says ''War''
UA-cam: 😡😠
lol
I have created new swear words thanks to UA-cam:
Son of War
Motherwarrior
Piece of a War
UA-cam:I love demonitization.
A RAMBLER SUCCESS! His soldiers were like "Why are we sitting around when there be Englishmen around?.....ATTACK!"
The power of the highland charge on display
The Manx have their own state? Ireland is unified? This is an interesting timeline
Almost all of Ireland because the Royalist control a port in Ireland
I think you mean Greater Carrifergus
The year is 1936 Ireland is entirely occupied by the Irish. Well, not entirely... One small village of indomitable Royalists still holds out against the invadors.
Avery the Cuban-American dude why are you everywhere
Flachzange lol calling the Irish the invaders
Alex: *tries to do a scottish accent*
Germans: ahhh itz a german
Ur scottish accent sounds a mix of irish and german
Alex: I almost said the W-A-R Word!
Also Alex: *READS SCOTTISH DESCRIPTION*
*SAYS WAR WITHOUT A HINT OF REMORSE*
Alex: Well that was fun but I failed. Oh well.
AI: What? No you're about to win! Fine let me take over and show you how it's done!
UA-cam when there is a 18 plus video on youtube: (sleep)
UA-cam when some person who plays war games says war: So you have chosen *demonetization*
It is almost like they have an agenda
Alex: someone will put in a time-stamp everyone: ..... Silence
Your troops didn't glitch, they were, for some reason, assigned to a fallback line way up in Yorkist territory that you had set earlier but never deleted, I believe~ You can see a few of their orders led straight to it.
In reality, you were always winning the war with your strategy!
Last time i was this early Alex was still making videos without a cam!
His divisions were like the Japanese forces in Korea that the Government was like "No attacking Manchuria is a madness but the Army attacked and took it anyway.
The Red Clydeside flag has the East German hammer and compass, oh my
Alex: What if the UK was a mess?
Me: Wait. . . isn’t it already a mess?
Paradox felt bad for lil' Alex and made the AI attack for him. That's the only explanation for what I just witnessed. Or your mountaineers just got sick of yer sco'ish accent and went berserk... Either...
Cheers from Glasgow :)
everybody in scotland is in the lowlands because of the " highland Clearances"'
CONTINUE THIS CAMPAIGN!
Alex this video was actually hype, please unify the UK as Scotland, then take Ireland!
I'm from Scotland I laughed so hard when you made that accent.
The game: shows Rambler how to play the game.
Rambler: aM I bEiNg hAcKeD???
His highlanders just going Leroy Jenkins and blitzing without orders and ending up forcing a general offensive to save them that cascaded into the complete collapse of the Yorkists all while Alex/King Robert has no idea why everyone is attacking without orders... honestly feels like one of the most historically authentic moments of the game. The course of history changed by the whims of a few gung-ho soldiers.
Gloryhammer has forever ingrained itself in my mind, and whenever of places like "Inverness", "Fife", or "Dundee", one of their song inevitably blare in my head.
Just a note on that top quality rambler fact, the biggest factor in the change of population in Scotland was the Highland Clearances where the nobles and the English would weaken clans and evict people from their lands in the highlands. Most people immigrated to other countries, but because the highlands were no longer a great place to live since you'd probably just get kicked out the lowlands became quite developed. www.britannica.com/event/Highland-Clearances

I re-startedplaying HOI4 watching your video... and I even play better than before! Cheerios Alex!!
Awesome. Only time I’ve seen Inverness in hoi4 is in Millenium Dawn and they spelt it “Iverness”
I really loved this video, and I'd love to see you attempt to take the majority of the British Isles as one of the factions. Perhaps you could make it a mini series or something? Keep up the good work! I love your videos
I love that u play these modus and juist test them keep going:)
This was the true reason Alex moved from the British Isles
Alex's "Scottish" accent sounds more like an Irish accent than a Scottish one
Loving these HOI4 mods videos!!
still waiting for him to say kerfuffle instead of war.
haha good one alex, "what if"
alex: afraid to say "war"
also alex: casually says "damn"
Finally got a new PC and can run HOIIV, I've been enjoying every bit of it and your videos always inspire me to play more. Thanks Alex!
Rambler intros just keep getting better
I watch all of the ads because I know how expensive it is to live in the Lower Mainland of BC. Thanks for the content Alex!
the reason your divisions attacked when you didn’t want them to, was me. I was doing that lol
My Phone Has This Weird Glitch Where It Will Play 2 Things Of Audio At Once And When I Clicked Your Video, A Kinda Hype Intro Sounding Song Started Playing And My First Thought Was “Rambler’s Finally Lost It”
I can just imagine Hitler in this timeline watching Britain descend into civil war and turning to a map of continental Europe saying "It's free real estate"
Also I tried this as the Jacobites and failed miserably but that was because I did the Coup immediately, I can't wait to play as the united Ireland. Thank You Alex for doing a win one for me. You saved me a lot of anger. Is the exhibit still at the War museum in Ottawa? How did you feel seeing Hitler's bullet riddled limo there?
Also the reason why Rupprecht has those war buffs is because he was a Field Marshall in the Imperial German Army in WW1
Ah the old Highland Charge wins again. Fun scenario. Would love to see more stuff like this on the channel.
Your Scottish Accent... IS AMAZING!
Never did i think my home town of dumbarton would make it on to hoi4 in a rambler vid. Also the accents alex the goddamn accents😂
those dudes were assigned to the OG fallback line in Glasgow. The Yorkist units were so weak they just decided to go ham and return back to glasgow.
1:29 Blihmey the chap running Scotland looks an awful lot like Reese Mogg.
Great video!
27:06
No One:
His Units: LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEROYYYYYY JEEENKINSSS
Kernow! M’ath Kernow ❤️❤️ (Cornwall, I love Cornwall in Cornish) here in Kernow, we’re always so forgotten... hopefully soon our language will go larger than 3000 people.
Nice one! Cheers mate!
that moment when "agrresive stance" is more effective than Alex's min-maxing...
love your videos keep doing more :)
Cool video!
To clear up 2 things because I guess Alex didn't recognize what was happening.
1. Sometimes when he would attack and his units would just give up instead of de-orging. This is because his units were not reinforcing the ongoing battle. Usually he'd attack a tile being attacked by AI volunteers, his units become the reserves, but don't reinforce the battle. The AI volunteers de-org, and the battle thus ends. Incidentally this is why if he then attacked again immediately it would work, as his units were now in the battle to start with.
2. Sometimes when units fufill a command they'll re-adjust what orders they have. In this case alex told them to attack, and once they finished with that attack and took the tile, they re-adjusted and decided to append themselves to the "fallback" line that alex had drawn from Edinburgh to Glasgow. The thing about fallback lines is that the AI will attack into enemy forces to reach them. (You've probably seen this behavior if you get pushed off a fallback line, your retreating troops re-org and then immediately attack, usually to your dismay). So once his units appended themselves to the fallback line, they decided to attack forwards to reach it.
Always remember to delete your fallback lines when you dont need them anymore folks!
they started moving because they were still assigned to the fallback line x]
On the lowland fact, the reason there are so little people in the highlands is because after the Jacobite rebellion those who opposed the King (mostly in the highlands) were deported throughout the empire.
You said “war” about three minutes in 😂
Alex thanks for being honest about the UA-cam engagement stuff.
I really like this mod please play it more in the future
Yay! Great video
That's some fine strategy here
Great vid!
Fun mod, Mr. Rambler. I see you made the correct choice and played someone with a focus tree. Some of us weren't so fortunate.
Definitely didn't take me a few times to select one with a focus tree..
Really good video I am definitely gonna play this mod
You asigned them to the the first fall back line
Wow. Rambler is now doing modern times reenactment
Love your Videos
I managed to unite the British Isles as the Jacobites in 1941 in this mod. It’s actually pretty easy if you exploit the Bavarian volunteer decision and use your navy to capitulate the yorkists
30 minutes of comedy gold
6:47 you said WAR !!
6:52 Why is Jacob Rees-Mogg the president of the Scottish Republic?
Well done alex😤
I think it was the fallback line, but yeah at the end they kinda helped you through lol.
*Thomas had never seen such a mess.*
The change in the demographics of scotland (ie less people lived in the highlands) Alex mentioned was as a result of the highland clearances which some argue were and intentional effort to depopulate the areas of scotland that had been most traditionally opposed to british government (such as the Jacobite rebellions). Kind of an ethnic cleansing lite. Anyway nice vid
Good video!
It is strange to see no Goaty Rambler
Omg Rambler without a goatee is so weird now.
A random comment to help with the engagement
I did that too lol
eg
Alex: oh damn yorkists
*Mean while rest of the planet* : *What the fuck did we just missed?*
Hey Alex you had guys assigned to your old fallback line and you were on aggressive, so that’s why your troops were attacking w/o orders
I now want a picture of a fishing trawler with an Abrams tank turret on it
I’ve already had a glitch like that before aswell when the ai takes over. Expect mine was a lot worse
I like that the title suggests the Uk isn’t currently in a mess
When the game realizes how incompetant Alex is and just does it itself.
Just so you know Alex, this mod is based on a miniature wargame with the same name. I've never played it myself, but the background is very cool!
The haggis is in the fire for sure
that is...
A VERY BRITISH CIVIL WAR !!!!!
haha!
Alex the exposer, GREAT ROLE MODEL.
Alex, you can’t make redundant statements like “what if England was a mess” because England is a mess!
Highland Clearances is what it was called Alex
I was wondering if i should buy the dlc la resistance or are there other games you suggest i play
Surprised he didn’t notice the defensive line he made earlier was the cause of his divisions advancing.😂
Ah a fitting title to the video
