Rebel Inc: Custom Scenarios - The French-Algerian War

hey there my name is provis and welcome to more rebelling escalation custom scenarios we're going to try out a highly rated scenario that um is really interesting and took me a while to kind of understand but i think i now know how to beat this scenario it's called the french algerian war by transport owe 96 because the previous 95 iterations were taken the algerian war known as the revolution or the war of independence or the war of november 1st was fought between the french and the algerian national liberation front from 1954 to 1962. it's an important decolonization war characterized by guerrilla warfare and the use of torture also a civil war the war took place mainly in algeria with repercussions in metropolitan france can you last longer than the french government in real life because apparently we're playing as the colonizers so this is um hard to understand because there's a lot going on it's actually really creative and impressive but it's gonna take me a minute to unders explain how it all works so first off we have a lot of modifiers some of which are unique for this scenario so we have bad logistics which lowers my travel speed we have river crossings so insurgents can cross rivers but if we invest in certain defenses we can stop that a mining area with an oil derrick an extensive tunnel network that's look uh located right down here in the mining town if the insurgents control this i know that they get a lot of extra power if i control it i get income so that's kind of important we have agitators so the insurgents are going to fire pretty much immediately soldiers are weak but algerian soldiers train a lot faster insurgents can convert the algerian soldiers if they die in combat so if you lose a fight with national soldiers they just desert you outright combat recruitment insurgents increase in number whenever we flee from combat so you really don't want to run away reputation is called commitment in this scenario we have caves we have terrible garrisons that cannot be built in remote areas until we get the right techs there's a naval base if it destroyed we lose the game i don't know if that's considered the embassy or this garrison over here but either way we can't afford to lose it insurgents can flee into multiple zones and reduce reputation loss from insurgents controlling multiple zones and believe me they're going to control a lot so let's go ahead and start by grabbing some intel gets me a little bit of support now over here in the government tab there's a bunch of things happening here we have local propaganda intel propaganda security leaks global propaganda and sabotage these are all horrible negative initiatives that we can't get rid of they roll out over time so the insurgents get stronger and stronger in every zone we're up fighting an uphill battle pretty much from the get-go we can't ask for french assistance which is like four and eight it's pretty cheap i guess i'll do it martial law kind of a last-minute ditch effort right there let's resettle refugees so that this uh cities become more important that could be helpful increases my support level a little bit war censorship reduce support but also reduce reputation loss whenever the fln captures new zones might be important for me elections gets me a lot of extra support but does not actually create any elections uh pop-ups because apparently that is a limit to this scenario creator so i didn't know about that and then there's here this thing called torture authorize the use of torture not good for support but gets the job done adds four construction teams one of each type i have no idea what that means reduces current and future support level extreme increase in algerian soldier strength some of their members are found out increases effectiveness of anti-corruption and soldiers cause hostility fun fact i have tried this scenario like three times the only chance i even had is if i took torture by not picking it i was basically making it almost impossible to survive crazy right let's go and pick up some basic initiatives we want some water some healthcare and want some funding for french schools there are apparently uh french and algerian different like population groups i guess i don't know if it's as simple as like reduces hostile population whereas french increase the support level or what but regardless like i think there are actually supposed to be two different racial groups you're trying to appeal to to some degree so you're supposed to manage that uh in my case i i don't know if i have the luxury of trying for that at all all right so we could go for the french soldiers right now i don't think i need that this exact second i would like to get a level of anti-corruption and then we want to get some additional roll outs i'm thinking probably plumbing network which is supposed to be only for towns but apparently the limitations of the scenario creator don't allow this so everyone gets a little bit of water very good for the urban areas supposedly i mean what we really need to do is control the towns if we can control the towns we have a chance at surviving if we can't we are very very very doomed all right uh let's see we could also look into getting things like jobs um i think i want to get some extra support level here that we're going to lose all of our support level with our torture so don't get don't get too excited about any of this at the moment um i'm going to go ahead and grab refugees and resettlement to increase the value of the towns hopefully this does uh mean we can get these guys stable a little bit faster the town seem to be the only thing you can get pretty quick i'm gonna go ahead and deploy some french soldiers then we want to go for build barracks which doesn't do anything right now except for reduced support level but unlocks new options including an expansion of the naval base by doing this we get rid of the weak supply chains so we move at full speed again which seems kind of important uh eventually lead some more upgrades which we'll also need there's also the algerian soldiers which i'm gonna go ahead and get yes that could mean a bit more corruption and such but interesting thing uh we don't have the intel to move into any of these areas with my french soldiers i'm gonna go ahead and move up here and grab this urban specialist but i think my algerian soldiers might be able to grab intel and grab this mining town and we need to fortify this before it is too late otherwise well we're very very very doomed so do we go for this now that's the question um probably but i also would really like to try to get as much support level as possible first what do people say they want roads i can't get roads this second we can go for lobby for more freedom that leads to things like economic crisis to get more reputation we could lobby with nato to try and get them to give me some money i mean that'd be nice wouldn't mind a little bit of cash um getting some pretty good speed over here they're taking over the desert so what's killed me a lot in this scenario in the past is um the insurgents will control a lot of these zones and if they connect them all together you're pretty much just doomed that's that's been my experience up to this point i'm gonna go ahead and expand out that naval base that unlocks a lot of new options including construction office more intel and security forces which decreases algerian support but supposedly reduces the chance of a enemy base being built which could be kind of nice so we're gonna try for some of that see if we can get a little bit of security i'm going to deploy my urban specialist and simply apply them to the national soldiers so now we can get down here to the mining rig and i want to get intel in this area as quickly as we can we could also expand out the naval base again which i will do this would allow me to start constructing garrisons previously we didn't have that ability i want garrisons to be built pretty much anywhere that helps me defend the cities right over here we'll have to do and i'm not really looking to get too aggressive i want to go ahead and clear these guys out from a couple areas but yeah let's go for some road infrastructure since apparently people are asking for that and i have yet to meet that need okay they're spreading really aggressively in the city we did find an enemy ambush so there's a good chance we get attacked over here or something let's see if we can just get the intel here yeah we're under attack we're gonna need to send some reinforcements or perhaps we just go ahead and grab the torture now this is gonna make these guys a lot stronger i think we cleared out this zone okay so i don't know where these guys are gonna retreat hopefully they go to mountains and stay over there i'm going to send this over here we're being sabotaged apparently we're going to try to prevent these guys from taking the main road let's grab some roads of my own including the highways i want to be able to travel rapidly yes they control a lot of connected zones i'm aware and that's obviously terrible but i have to uh continue with what i'm doing right now let's get some more algerian soldiers these guys are really good they train pretty much instantly so that's nice i'm gonna go for a little bit of reinforcements to make sure we win this fight since our soldiers are currently weak and they're running around in the mountains up here which is annoying but i have to control this oil america if we lose this we are in a lot of trouble let's get some more soldiers going because i want to protect this garrison and these guys should be able to all reinforce each other one thing i also want to get river defenses so that the insurgents can't cross rivers and apparently you have to get two levels of this so this one's free for that reason which is like i don't know why that's a scenario creator thing but apparently it is mortars able to support across rivers fascinating uh defensive mandates increased commitments french soldiers can no longer enter into fln controlled zones yeah that's all fun not something useful to me right now we are trying really hard to keep these guys away from this side of the river we control the bridge i want them stuck over here we're losing some um reputation due to insurgent activity but i'm gonna live with that for the moment let's see we can go ahead and start working on railroads takes a long time to roll out but make zones more accessible and gets us a bonus to combat also apparently reduces construction speed oh speaking of stuff i should get electricity because apparently this slow slightly reduces the cost of civilian initiatives which i mean that seems good right so yeah let's just go ahead and do that we've won that fight let's try to kick these guys out of here kick them to the curb we have very little intel and that's proven to be a problem i'm gonna get a civilian military bridge office and then get translators which lets us start gathering some intel and i also really wanted to get construction help which means these guys can start rolling out initiative in the mining town and hopefully give us control of this because with the oil merrick i want to try to get some additional funds you guys see how this is kind of a crazy scenario i mean there's a lot that we need to do here let's grab the construction office i don't actually know what this does but it says it adds a generic construction team whatever that means investing into one type of region enough grants an attachment i don't know what this does is this supposed to be like a specialized um unit that we place down kind of like the uh what's it the contractor or somebody you know what's the name what's the name of the governor that can do that either way you get the idea are we supposed to be able to do that because it's not happening i have no idea if that's intentional or not what is this by the way these are minefields i don't think we can delete these but we can try to maybe push these guys back a little bit with some support so i guess we'll go ahead and do that right now could go for air bases not going to worry about that right now um soldiers increase the speed they're rolled out the initiatives yup we need that badly and i'd also love to not antagonize the population so much because that's one of the reasons we're not going to be gaining a lot of popularity over there let's make sure we're protecting the towns at all costs um we have charities and this is because we asked for the french help i could give them full access but it increases inflation and corruption i'd rather go ahead and kind of regulate that spend a little bit of money they'll continue to roll out some free initiatives but hopefully it just means we have less inflation and corruption to worry about so there's a garrison which will help us keep things under control okay these guys are retreating let's see if we can go ahead and push over here and fight them a little bit more i'm just going to keep trying to push them back and save my reputation as much as we can so far so good though this is the best run i've had for a while uh faster algerian soldiers is nice probably don't need that right now um try to call it more troops this reduces commitment i don't know what this does it's free i mean it's bad for my reputation but if it lets me hire more troops it does okay slower and weaker than french soldiers but less likely to antagonize yeah you say that but there are so many things that buff specifically the algerian soldiers i think it's worth getting these at this point could go for mortars uh support people and stuff i mean seems nice these guys are relatively cheap all things considered so i'm gonna go ahead and grab more of them oh they actually also trained instantly good uh maybe we can kick these guys out of the mountains then you think um we could try let's uh let's see if we can push them further into the mountains if we can uh support these guys with a lot of extra strength that might work out well for me um all right so let's see we can pick up military supplies which gets me some extra strength for algerian soldiers seems good we could go for the railway track 2 reduce the civilian price is very slow to roll out i'm going to go ahead and do that i feel like railroads are probably amazing okay holding out so far i can only imagine how difficult this scenario would be on a brutal difficulty or mega brutal god forbid oh lord that that i just don't even like to think about all right so we just took over this area i don't know where these guys are gonna retreat to a corner that's even easier for me to destroy let's go ahead and move over here and see if we can just clear these guys out the answer should be easily yes all right so they're gone at least which means now we can move over here i'm gonna get some reinforcements and let's let's send some soldiers to basically just start rolling out initiatives and help get more stability in these zones all right all right sounds good dirt roads there's even more trains significantly increase the support level especially amongst the french use military resources lower civilian initiative prices adds another construction team increases military initiative prices so once you're kind of done with this go ahead and focus on the military is that what you're saying seems that way uh i could go ahead and start working on getting some security levels which i guess i'll go ahead and do and that's kind of like policing coalition deployment is supposed to end soon that's not good but whatever um we're moving really slow in some of these areas yeah my intel is just absolutely abysmal we've got these guys very well controlled right now which means i'm not losing too much to insurgent activity and i like that i like that a lot uh civil integration very unlikely to antagonize actually to soldiers outright increased support level that's great yeah let's just have the soldiers help us straight out win some of this what do people want jobs yeah i'm not doing anything on jobs yet let's fix that land rights how's that you guys like land rights in a mining town you know maybe you can sell your lands you can just let us get a little bit of oil we'll pay you here's something that annoys me i have yet to find anything that lets me do subtle pressure i feel like you only can do counter-strike so diplomatic events are actually pretty rough you'd like to think that lobbying and stuff would do it but i haven't seen that yet uh though that doesn't mean it doesn't exist just means i don't know about it more construction teams i guess sure rural urban i mean we don't need i guess we could use an urban what does this do no i don't know what those construction teams do i think those might be broken or something not working quite the way as intended all right uh what else can we do we could go for a development bank good for urban zones like the mining town please roll out some initiatives and make these guys have jobs they need jobs they all are asking for jobs they're being very polite about it please give it to him all right remember by the way the longer we're taking the more the propaganda and stuff is really getting around and hurting me so it's only making my life a lot harder uh let's go ahead and expand our intel we could go for the fifth bureau which does double up our our supports kind of like regular uh propaganda would but we have no support really to speak of so it doesn't do me a lot of good population census more intel in these areas sure why not we've been kind of behind schedule as far as intel is concerned so i feel like that's probably still good to get people want more health care and they want more jobs but they should be rolling out jobs so i'm not worried about it um dirt roads wouldn't be bad what's this by the way electric infrastructure improvements slightly increase the support level unlocks options huge corruption increase this is how we get radios oh okay and then there's electricity okay and then there's electrified trains reducing military initiatives fascinating okay all right all right all right uh inflation's been pretty bad but the good news is corruption dies like instantly now the fact that i can see a garrison over here scares me it makes me think that maybe one of these two zones has a camp in it so we want to go over here and start exploring and looking for it i want to find out if there is in fact some sort of camp that is going to spawn some insurgents in a little bit i don't know why the coalition soldiers by the way have not been retreating or leaving are they supposed to i don't know but they're not here let's increase the speed of movement that seems pretty good uh lower support amongst the french increased support amongst the algerians seems solid and extra intel is still extra intel this zone has now been completed alright uh let's move up over here i guess we're gonna try to roll out some extra initiatives and get these under control mining town still is not going pretty much anywhere don't know why that's the case lack of jobs is the primary concern we just need more jobs here all right how about vocational training that would probably help if we can roll that out and yeah let's see all right so we found stuff minefields and tunnels but we did not find a camp so i don't know why this garrison exists but apparently we can destroy minefields oh and for some reason our garrison helps with that oh well that's interesting i didn't know that was gonna be a thing okay fair enough let's expand the naval base again now we have access to tanks uh extreme support level increase maybe i think we'll go for more travel speed that seems helpful we could get a tank now if we want i think i'll go ahead and ah no i'll hold off on the tank we're not going into combat situations yet though the tank will obviously win in these fights pretty quickly up we have problems over here now okay well the minefield's been destroyed um we need to go fight this so let's send some folks over here basically clear this out kind of instantly i think we'll be able to defend this garrison that minefield is gone let's see if we can destroy the other one never mind hang on we need to go over here first and kick these guys out because they are fighting in my hq and i want them to retreat never mind they died that's even better i could go for airstrikes but i'm kind of holding off on that right now uh what else we want to do well you can lobby for nato to give me money there's not really any point to go for any corruption reduction if you go for torture it seems like that's pretty effective let's go for more security increase the support level of algerian significantly increases security yeah we're gonna do that i'm going for a load of security right now again the corruption goes away almost instantly so it seems kind of irrelevant honestly whoa hang on there's a lot of guys over here now all of a sudden ah let's go roll out some more initiatives in this area we want to fight this make sure we don't lose that garrison but it looks like we will be a okay uh what else we want to do what else we want to do more yeah all right algerians love having algerian police sure law order is important for any uh striving civilization you want to create civilization you do that radios are being built by charity well that's nice uh let's get back over here and just keep rolling out some more initiatives but that'll be finishing up pretty soon uh what else we want telecoms fake news make sure everyone knows how well we are doing okay very significantly increased support level but gradually decreases as fact checking becomes habit well but i am doing good what are you talking about let's go for radios instead so charities gave me free initiatives interesting so they're not just building things they're actually giving me free stuff i think unless i actually got that and i'm an idiot and i forgot no idea let's go over a reduced price in the military initiatives uh we could go for camouflage which gives me a lot of extra support amongst the algerians all right doing good so far again unable to figure out where that subtle pressure comes in so we're just gonna have to live with it another camp has been discovered let's even get rid of that asap although getting air strikes if we had the money would also be pretty good in fact let's go ahead and build an air base that just reduced the support level but now we have access to helicopters or to air strikes i really just need to get rid of this we're very slow at moving in the mountains very very slow be nice to get the dirt roads actually see if we can build those out yeah that'd be helpful all right we're gonna destroy this in search and camp you guys are just rolling out initiatives over here like crazy let's go to the farmland and just try to finalize this a bit more now there is no peace option in this scenario no peace at all so yeah we have to kill these guys and actually stabilize every single zone despite the fact that it looks like nobody likes me uh we go for arabic classes which makes the algerians happy but reduces support from the french for some reason it looks like the french population is higher than the algerian so i guess we'll do that [Music] let's go for livestock for more support in the rural areas since we are already pretty much maxed out in urban with the exception of the mining town which is greatly increasing its support now there we go there we go we're getting somewhere oh my god i seriously spent about 45 minutes playing this scenario trying to figure out what the heck to do we're gonna gain some more reputation why not these guys will probably take over this zone unless there's some security over here already there is but not much uh let's see if we can fight them and kick them out of here i don't like that these guys are a thing hang on move here and move here and we'll just kill them outright why let them take over zones hey a garrison finally something a bit closer to the front line that i can actually make use of that's nice i'm going to go ahead and move you over here because i think we can tighten the noose a little bit more airstrikes sure why not those are still pretty good and more propaganda oh wow all right all of a sudden we've got all the support level i could have hoped for hello the people love me the people absolutely love me all right i don't know why we suddenly got that much more but all right these guys are dead mining town is thrilled hey that's a thing all right uh let's move you here you here and you up here and grab one more national soldier and move you here so we can clear out this last little group over here these guys are struggling by a lot tell you what tanks use the tank loop that didn't work at all these guys are way too strong it's because i have no intelligence maybe counter strikes required but it reduces their strength by a lot uh we should be able to do some things like this for example bleu it however you say that which apparently reduces the insurgent infrastructure reduces their numbers and also uh they lose fortifications i'm gonna go for another expansion of the fifth bureau which i think we're gonna go over 100 support level by doing that i think that's how that's going to work all right so this area is going to get cleared out they're already cleared out all right go here go here go here and you go here and as long as these guys don't retreat into my own zone which i don't think they can we should be able to crush this seven percent chance i'll take that risk there we go thank you that wow these zones are absolutely going crazy all of a sudden aren't they all right now we're really going for the kill now we're going for the kill paranoia significant a slightly increased support level population no longer joins them if we have to retreat well i have no intention of retreating let's go for benny wee-wee beniwi yes yes men uh increases support but reduce the support level i have no idea how that works it seems to be a multiplier that's a bit weird stripey hole temporarily arrest all non-trustworthy algerian males and thoroughly interrogate every single one of them very significantly reduced support level but reduces the amount of insurgents i don't think we need to do that but interesting to know that that happens uh okay let's go for some remote construction i'm assuming these are kind of like remote outreach more than anything else could be wrong we can lobby up with nato but i don't really think i need more funds exactly oh wait we actually have an attachment ah no my national soldiers died okay we have to fund a new recruit because we lost that one hang on uh we need reinforcements because i'm worried about these guys dying next please reinforce don't die on me dang it ah heavy ordnance more frequent get in there destroy that they have so many camps here arms cash large ambush fanatical outpost and an insurgent base wow all right we're gonna make you into a remote attachment so you fight really well over there and sure enough we lost these guys okay new plan we pull you back we got a little overly aggressive it turns out we need to make use of tankage and we'll reinforce the crud out of it and the tank might be able to win this but even if they don't at least we don't lose the unit thankfully we're able to re uh re-buy these guys so it's not the end of the world let's try to keep pushing forward over here i'm gonna need stronger garrisons i think so we'll do that and how about some extra security there and bases are now indestructible wow that's interesting how about a lot more french okay go go i'm gonna invade the crud out of everything you hold dear okay the tank appears to be finally doing the job excellent we are going to engage in critical uh critics saying that women's rights are very important counter-strike all right there's another guy over here hovering around hopefully we can kill him that's a lot of dead insurgents we found their next camp excellent you will go down over here i guess since that's where they're retreating you go here you go here that way these guys have nowhere to retreat so they're just gonna die there we go then you guys go here and the tank please return to the front oh there's more guys over here but we should have lots of security i don't think they can do anything i have to fund more recruitment because i'm again losing some soldiers apparently all right so this is where having the french soldiers lead the charge and i provide a reinforcing role is probably the better way for me to go at this point let's do helicopters and have some drones lots of drones in fact just get lots of intelligence so we can win some of these fights more resoundingly we are struggling with some of these guys i won't deny it uh i will increase the pay of the national soldiers so that they stick around a bit more and then yeah we got lots of reinforce oh wait there's a camp over here get rid of that okay these guys are dead and that finishes off the remaining insurgents so all we have to do is get rid of this camp hold on to these zones and we're going to win all righty let's just go for a load of extra stuff uh education's fine i don't really care i'm getting lots of inflation but i don't mind it doesn't matter the inflation will take down fast as is hang on we gotta go move a couple of guys over this way before they can retreat these guys are all gonna die they have nowhere to go and bye and they're just spawning more little guys to annoy me at this point i'm pretty confident this is just a spiteful maneuver more than anything but they're not going to get very far at least this tank unfortunately is reducing support so i would love to get rid of that um helicopters more often no garrisons can be built in remote areas sure why not that seems useful and let's go for some more remote outreach so it's easier for me to get these guys rolled out yeah we're struggling here all right so these guys are getting for some reason basically no support i don't really understand why but i'm going to go ahead and jump forward to when we actually can win this okay we are just about done and we've got about a hundred and we're gonna have about 150 reputation by the end of this which is pretty fantastic boom who in that scenario 1968. took a long time but we did manage to win it it's rough and i'm telling you i've tried this several times for some reason torture really is necessary you're gonna have basically no support for a while and it's a brutal military occupation but once that's done and you finally have these guys under control eventually it just all seems to take off fantastic scenario definitely going to give that a thumbs up i can only imagine how hard that is in the high difficulties though thank you all very much for watching i hope you enjoyed if so then i would ask you hit that like button with a comment and subscribe and i will see you guys next time [Music] you
