of my favorite mods i think on the workshop uh i just i just didn't i just enjoy playing it really that's that's what i'm going to do today and i'm going to be playing as a nation which i probably mock a little bit too often but in reality it's a pretty solid nation that would be the nation of france and i'll be playing as the chunky boy of armand faleres you still using a cupboard to try and

been a good like six months since i've played the great the great kerfuffle mod i just had a desire to play it there's loads of focus trees that i haven't played through before so we're just gonna give it a try i'm gonna see if i if france can win the the great kerfuffle independently so screw the united kingdom screw russia just me and of course if you would like to see more hearts of iron on

in a crushing war which saw the loss of alsace lorraine lovely part of europe by the way this made an implacable enemy of france who has been licking her wounds since as usual we have a disjointed government classic france they can't decide on anything except the guillotine but here we are 1910 we begin i could try and um you know help all of my colonies out but i don't know if i really want to bother uh infrastructure effort is always solid and start getting some more civilian factories to begin with because france doesn't seem to have too many i could also do political effort release vietnam sacred blur but no i think i'll assert my position in central europe no real game plan for this by the way just uh just fancy having a game also been trying to figure out if i have a uh a slight allergy to dairy recently so today i decided to have some mature cheddar cheese and some cream of tomato soup so i guess i'll find out while i'm recording this video if i do in fact if i shouldn't be uh having dairy sure it's fine my editor can cut out the farts captain of industry boo boo boo boom what do we know about almond faladiers he hasn't got any traits fine so by far the most expensive tree is germany's i think at the moment and that's the only one that you could do uh different alternative history bits it'd be nice if they did keep working on this mod i know that it's been updated for some time but i really hope it does i keep getting additional development at the moment it is me and russia russia and i me myself and russia anti-german policy bim bamboon how much of my army is unequipped most classic france oh king ferdinand ends up in the plane first monarch to do it hey good for him auntie austria-hungary i really don't like him any friend of germany's is no friend of france oh revolution in portugal okay okay okay oh what's russia up to little skirmish with persia all right go at it mate ah philip patan field marshall joseph galleny come on in mate oh mexico's having a revolution whatever money they've had in their history too many to count so we do have some forts on the border which is solid maybe i'm dumb to try and do this alone or maybe it's the best idea in the world we'll never know well we will eventually as my tiredness begins and my bloatedness increases i think that i may indeed have a slight dairy allergy will that stop me for forever not eating cheese i was still i have a nibble i like how quickly this mod runs too look at that look at that five speed oh the mona lisa's been stolen i wasn't looking damn me for looking at five speed i wonder if filled hospitals would be prudent in world war one probably so i could actually go down and start going uh down the old socialism route and have a bit of a revolut no i could go communist but it is not this day oh off they go uh they i think i think it's scripted that they should win this it's the only war italy could win a scripted one if we support italy's claims in austria uh there will not be immediately won over we can at the very least begin the process of leading them away can people just not have fires that would be great oh the protectorate of morocco france occupies fez sure let's go mate it's free real estate got him i can already prepare for war baby please i do want to get rid of disjointed government and i do want to get more guns and equipment for my troops because this is um looking pretty poor at the moment my industry i feel that if italy were to join i would just get trounced i think it's fine if germany conquers africa because it won't matter to me much in the long run i don't really have any divisions there anyway in the factories just like is it worth keeping people at their independence you know but what mods are you guys and gals playing at the moment do let me know i i may i may i may read the comments that happens sometimes shocking i know but it has occurred excuse me germany offers a peaceful solution of crisis they will abandon the idea of military intervention if we transfer uh sure i don't care enough to to be like you know what germany i'm gonna fight you on that you know what it probably doesn't it's not gonna change the day-to-day running that much if anything i would give them independence can i give them independence i can all right no i can't france is involved in the scramble for africa and can't release colonies alpha revoke the vavani administration prime minister renee vivani is likely not the man at fault for the issues of the french military has faced in the war what war but he makes an excellent escape go okay belgium seeks to join i was going to go alone but it's always nice to have allies on the border that would mean i can change my defensive position to that of going along the river oh alex you're so smart you all better agree bureaucracy gave me a civilian factory i don't know how many germany have i probably more oh my god you know what i might need the uk no i've got a couple of years and even then i'll be on the defensive patriotic further oh recruitable population plus five percent great oh and i've removed yeah i've removed that but our prime minister has stayed the same or president whoever whatever and then we have the sodom of bulgaria against greece ah the older anti-bulgarian league oh the balkans ah okay ah raymond ponchiere becomes aggression the rest is all the rest is pretty good what does he look like oh that's a very i'm going to say stout but that's not the right stern stoic stoic that's the word i know my i know i know words oh there's been a coup in the ottoman empire farewell to the sultan okay we're in 1913 now i i should probably start building military factories that would be prudent get them all over the place how long does it take ah like a month or so okay do that being quicker support romanian claims yeah yeah they must reward us by joining the on top then i'll make friends with serbia and it's all good in the hood still getting pretty scared of their old uh military factory count and if italy decides to join the war too oh would you victor or would you just stay out of it britain oh oh i was trying to do it solo but they're already guaranteeing belgium oh they'd join anyway wouldn't they fine where are your divisions where are they let's help serbia they're desperate get the alpine troops down in the the alps i think we've got a chance to hold at least it might be a slim one though ah we're in 1914 already oh oh we're in 1914 already that's gone surprisingly quickly don't panic don't panic oh they have a lot of russia seems a little bit outnumbered not gonna lie they're gonna get absolutely trounced where are your divisions man you have 177 are they just across the whole of the they're across the across the whole of china why are you the way that you are russia oh here we go immobilization throughout europe pray for survival franz ferdinand god rest his soul russian appeal um we will guarantee serbia uh her allies assure us that austria is preparing a provocation okay population supports the government policy surprising first time for everything eh the us's declared neutrality of course they have the minion is canada okay okay okay it's all it's all happening russia is immediately losing so rip belgium wants to help oh very well you can invite a faction serbia wants to join very well i will assist oh they're automatically attacking i hope they don't go through the netherlands that'd be bad for me so they're going to push belgium back a little bit but then we have the river line wait did portugal join hey nice okay they are sending more troops there no no no no no no no no no will my defensive plans be ruined if luxembourg falls no we're fine united states wants to send volunteers though the bef is here let's help out russia with a couple of factories they i think they need the help okay luxembourg is capitulated again this is all fine i think i have every tile covered they're not pushing or they're trying to but they're unable because i'm freaking awesome ottoman empire has joined the central powers oh russia oh it hurts it hurts to see i can't believe belgium is holding so nicely without my help wait am i i'm being naval invaded i didn't think other nations had a navy that's not good oh you no you don't sir will belgium capitulate if they've lost brussels please no no no no oh thank good goo oh that was risky wasn't it little scamps doing that i didn't think they had a navy so that's why i was just kind of yoloing it but keep an eye on them now because a lot of countries in this mod don't have a navy which is a bit baffling i don't know why they haven't implemented that yet the german occupation of brussels though that was a ballsy move by by the ai you know i can respect that serbia still alive somehow um the french lines are holding rather nicely because if we look at the fielded manpower they're already technically outnumbered two to one it's just russia that's gonna let us down i think they're going for it again but it's kind of covered now oh i shouldn't have done my little advance they're getting a bit um close to be able to push me but germany's up to half a million casualties which is pretty nice yeah the french aren't striking anymore hallelujah the empire of japan wants to join sure that's very nice of you yoshito i can't say i was expecting that but very nice this is concerning that they're actually uh doing an okay push yeah they outnumber me a lot the bristle off offensive aha god protects the russians indeed well yes but also no i'm going to send my oh do you know what we might as well do some strategic bombing on some thoughts over there off your plop poggers the empire of japan is called the kingdom of italian um very nice okay um sure classic italian betrayal uh let's send our 24 divisions in to try and cause a bit of chaos for the austro-hungarian lines here nice thank you italy you gotta be wondering like when it's just germany and austria-hungary that they thought they'd have a chance in heck to win and the ottoman empire i guess but like against against this oh and bulgaria too now hampered by the supply limit i may have to withdraw okay well in the almost inevitable event italy gets pushed back brazil's dick okay brazil fine anyone can join this on tom train choo choo okay so i've got some 40 combat with divisions to uh try and i guess make a push i don't know how successful it will be but we'll give them time to play it i'll be able to send a few more in more deployed but let's see how they do buying okay utter trash i don't think that this is a very good idea i might just be forming some kind of uh suicide squad of these divisions that i'm about to send in for a little cheeky naval invasion i mean we'll see and we're certainly seeing the sea at the moment did that joke work yes i might be about to lose 100 000 uh frenchmen though because germans have just come from from everywhere which oh that's left that tile open boom kablam kablamo come on get in before they die get in before they die no no they're dead i remember it being easier to push russia should withdraw from this say that never mind they've been circled yep there we go it's uh it's gone i think russia might be out of this war soon oh no oh dear oh russia's collapsing i'm getting tankies though so i've got that going for me which is nice well that's not good down there either i remember how i said that the italians would probably get pushed back i was right and i still can't really help them ah dude well goodbye sar we hardly knew you can kind of see why germany before they could win now all right my first two tankies let's get them into action oh look at them how slow do they want to move eh the slow lumbering things can't even make it across the freaking river okay let's see what the tanks can do i am thoroughly disappointed with that performance tanks remember how i said uh a while ago at the start of the video that i really enjoyed this mod well now it's turned into a grind fest i don't like it anymore come on do something oh i didn't mean to do that um might have just cost myself this war if my tanks lose i'm just gonna have a strop i'll throw i'll throw a nelly so i have aerial superiority they're still almost managing to push what am i doing wrong mass desertion brilliant so one little adjustment is costing me the entire war hash heiser hopefully germany's just going to waste all of their equipment oh and the united states wants to join of course thank you united states coming in in 1917 helping us out that's what we need this is this is literally recreating world war one for a t at least the mod does what it says on the tin hey now help me how many months have passed have the germans done anything greece is on my side i wish i knew that forgot about the focus didn't i okay sorry i went away for 10 minutes and left the game running and now it's all gone fully oh but they've taken divisions off my border i believe maybe try for the big push no idea if anything that's going to work i'm just going to have a little chalky biscuit oh they reinforced as soon as i started attacking okay how is the ottoman empire suddenly this strong what an earth has happened here they're a triumvirate okay i'm just confused at how many divisions they've they've managed to field oh i can't go to war economy probably should have done that a long time ago i actually don't know how i can beat them now oh oh why didn't i see that until now i know i don't know if that is going to go very well if i call them in that might this is going to go really badly for romania like i'm sorry i'm kind of sacrificing you but hashtag yolo like they're not going to survive but at least it would have delayed them for a little while while i launched a naval invasion if my army can't even push one freaking unit i'm going to lose my freaking mind mate mate so maybe we can get in here try and break out please take that airfield they're already sending men to like you know crack down uh romania's already getting crushed a cup of tea with some oat milk oat milk is only okay it's better in coffee than in tea oh that's for sure okay i don't really think you understand the urgency of which you need to move thank you oh italy's kind of pushing too is this the end of the world as we know it it's the end of the german empire maybe until i get pushed back can i call anyone else oh romania oh man there's no real way to help them either apart from to like maybe attack from down here and just cycle attack which i think everyone else i don't know everyone else is just stacking units it's so frustrating when they do that oh my god i think this might be it i think we might be starting to crush the ash well thanks for the extra month you gave me ask germany for peace nah um i think the ai has glitched again so we're just gonna go you know full force start occupying as much as possible before we probably get pushed back if we get pushed back i like how it's actually start pushing into german territory and it's like do you want to surrender you gets hey i am actually in circle someone go me no they broke the encirclement never mind where have all my allies gone they're all in greece okay unfortunately i'm getting pushed back in the north when all of your allies just go down to greece it rather over saturates the area don't you know however this looks pretty open so i might try and take out austria-hungary a little bit why when i go to the territory it has one division then they all of a sudden they have more just what the actual but if i leave there won't be that many troops there anymore can i offer germany terms of surrender does not control ill defrance oh i oh never mind i'm being a they don't have troops there now what did i say got vast air superiority vast uh cass trench warfare i guess but i would have fought with my tanks we'd be able to push i guess the tanks are starting to push a bit we've got that going for us which is nice oh but this is good we've got a little beach head over the river here a breach over the river and we might be able to keep um pushing maybe do a little bit of encirclement with the tanks come on tanks please work so i told these divisions to retreat months ago yet they still haven't done what i asked and then our insert was pretty amazing oh the english could march from berlin that'd be nice i'd send some troops over there if i had any unfortunately that's going to be a failed invasion i think uh because this is a priority instead when people say to me like um i don't understand how you could ever get bored of hoy it's when scenarios start going like this i'm just a bit like exasperated that was such a wasted opportunity by the uk ai then i think this might have to be a two-parter um why don't you tell me where i'm going wrong in the comments below but at the moment this video might be entitled what if ww1 ended in a stalemate because oh my god i cannot push i've been forced out up here yeah nothing is nothing nothing's going right nothing's going right maybe maybe you want to help yeah do let me know because at the moment i can i this could go either way wow what a cliffhanger everyone i can't believe i'm doing a two-party this is in a way exciting but in a way i'm gonna have to try and figure out how to win this i won't leave this unfinished toodaloo many thanks to onion duck seth cutter stervik maximilian foreman wyatt green zechariah mosby tad house
