After 5 months of work and probably around 300-400 hours of editing my first civilization video is finally finished. Just as a sort of PSA, while everything in this video is unscripted please do not harass anyone for their actions in this video. Being in a one-life event can get pretty tense at times, so people might act differently than they would normally with the stresses of being an event. But anyways, thanks so much for watching! Really hope you guys like it!
Loved the video, i just got the game recently. I sure hope you do another event like this soon i would love to join. never participated in a game's one life run before, but I had been thinking all day about what I'd do if I were to play one. Keep up the great work. +1 subscriber
Let's put some respect on OneGreenSole name. Got picked up by a Newfort, helped to kill 4 of CULT members, who was THE deadliest group for sure, lost his friends and base, joined Kingdom seeking revenge, and as soon as he heard of Struudel presence near the base, he stromed out immediately, not afraid of getting killed. And as soon as the last CULT member was dead he left with his pal to reestablish Newfort and made a funeral for all lost members of their faction. Legend
Struudel had the coldest death out of them all, stumbling out of his wrecked car, limping over through the woods and onto the train tracks, before finally collapsing and dying
This is the first time I played on a 100 player server, and I think we did really well considering my group had no pvp experience, let alone experience with advanced trajectory. I'm just glad we played a part in the story, and I find it poetic that the two who survived were some of the randoms we picked up along the way. Especially since they returned and rebuilt the base. The fact they buried us and had a funeral was just lovely, I didn't know about any of it until after the event ended. I was so surprised to see the Newfort green and the burial. The best part is I had NO idea what else happened, so I got to experience the last 2 days watching the video for the first time. And man, Harvest, you did a bloody good job. Only a matter of time til this vid hits the algo. Thank you so much for letting us be a part of it.
The Cult Clan was incredible. They really had the feel of a villain team that progressively dwindled. Struudel's silent revenge attack was distressing and his slow death felt so oddly peaceful and poetic. That's a season 1 final boss if I've ever seen one.
If this is a TV show the cult faction are probably military veterans who came back from war but instead of being called a war hero they got labeled as murderers by citizen and society in general. After they got exposed by journalists on all the war crimes the soldiers had committed during their tours in Irag. When the apocalypse happened months later the cult was form because they hate society and wants to see all of them burn for sacrificing their service and their lives in the frontline only to get spat on by their community after coming back home when the war is over
@@voreenthusiast3638 Dang, youre right. Must have mistaken its meaning. I'll probably go find an actual good word to replace it. Edit: I'll replace erroneous "mortifying" with "distressing". It seems closer to what I was trying to mean. There's still probably a better word out there.
@@AJ-em2rb lmao conveniently just the western societies, eh? Not literally every successful society in human history? Lmao the hatred of western society and whites while reaping all of their accomplishments has gotten to borderline mental illness levels
Yeah, it's pretty realistic. They take entirely hostile actions, including chasing down people who obviously want nothing to do with them and trying to kill them, and then play the victim and change the narrative during their little meeting about how they were "looking for peace" and the others "chose to fight" them. When their leader literally hung up on negotiations and exercised 0 diplomacy. But hey, what can you expect from a feudal society? Entitlement is kind of how it works.
Dang Struudel getting out of the car dying. while walking on the train tracks and finally dropping to death is such a climatic ending for a villian, props for the role-play!
@@MBSA7 you're not wrong. Brother had forseen that all of his people were.plotting against him an knew it was time to take all the goods an hightail it outta there
Xanax here, it was so fun playing this event. All the best to the newfort bois, who were strong opponents with great a great base defense, they didn't run and took the fight head on. There was lots of background fortifications that weren't shown in the video, same as the pov of Jake, who mauled people when we were breaching from all sides. Respect to my brothas who went all out on this raid. And finally big thanks to @HarvestZ for creating such amazing event!
I watched this entire thing, from start to finish. An incredible, captivating, gaming experience. I've never even played Project Zomboid but I was so captured by the growth of the kingdoms and their developments. No wonder this has millions of views. Music, pacing, quality overall, it was all on point. Incredible work, Harvest.
Thanks so much for the kind words! I've been watching your skits for a few years now (the beamng stuff is my favorite it's super unique) but yeah this means a lot coming from someone familiar with the process, thanks again ❤
Yes, they managed to create confusion and chaos which added significantly to it. It's one thing to see the defense of a base in a show like The Walking Dead, but it's another to see it actually played out without any script. The way the cultists came in circles to comb the area, the way they attacked as one team against inexperienced, scattered players... Perfection.
I've played on a couple publics servers and ran into Struudel and the gang twice. Once was no mercy, but the other i was actually robbed and let live. One of the most immersive experiences.
@@dobryrusk That is kinda the issue with low pop warfare that people don't quite understand. When you understand low population warfare. You see the native Americans in American history in a much different light. When it comes to a modern day apocalypse. The less information you give away the better. Yes you technically can make an area like that defendable, but that's going to require a level of organization that only preplaning can really provide. And you'd need a lot more then just 12 people to make something like that sustainable. If they wanted to live in that area. They should have built fences, and not walls around their compound. That would have saved them a lot of time and resources they needed to fortify the interior of the buildings, and blocking off the entrances while also providing the concealment they needed to keep an eye on those aproaching with ill intent.
The Cult Clan did such damage on the server The Kingdom got paranoid thinking they had a whole army when they were just a group of five screwing around
1:09:16 It's also worth noting, BeyondBrash is the one who killed Struudel. So, he killed the most aggressive person on the server in retaliation to said person's violence, was against the killing of the unarmed hostage without a trial later, and offed himself in protest of his group's growing aggression.
I thought it was cool AF that someone kept it legit and didn't act like a robber baron in the moment. That's kinda what caused the eventual decline of Brothers authority
Peak status my ass. Got their whole squad killed in 2 days lol. If they had any sense they'd have formed an alliance with flesh seekers and then hit the smaller factions 1 by 1 while giving them a choice, join or get eaten. Eventually building an army that could take out New Fort with a Hammer and Anvil strategy
@@thegoon3088 I see you missed the entire point of their presence. But I'll let you feel however you want. They accomplished their purpose perfectly for the story.
@@thegoon3088 The "role" they had was to spread chaos and be in there for an exciting time but not necessarily a long one. I imagine if it was actual characters, they would be the broken individuals that perhaps had already given up on life before the apocalypse even started. They didn't care to form a tribe or rebuild civilization, they were there to enjoy watching the world burn.
I think the best part was the betrayal in freeing cheddar. While the kingdom fights over if a needless war is the best outcome some humanity shines through.
This is literally a full on movie. The Cult were the best villains ever. Not just that, but with the leader of The Cult being the last member, and trying to kill all of The Kingdom, was awesome. I think the best ending, was watching Strudel escape from his car, and slowly walk down the railroad, barely alive. He was given all the time to think back to his decisions before collapsing. Best villain ever.
The cult was the perfect heel faction, ruthless, effective, and powerful. They also attacked the most decent people on the server in Newfort, making their eventual downfall even more satisfying. Every good story needs a good villian and they pulled that off to a tee. Shout out to struudel goingnout like a g too.
They're like military vets who came home after a war instead of being called war heros the community labeled them as murderers. only for the apocalypse to start and they took that opportunity to start beef with everyone but this time they can legally unalive people
"Effective and powerful" while being clapped by newfort folks who arent even that good, as rick said they were just a small group. If they went on the Kingdom then their death would probably end faster than ever, just simply looking at the numbers. Would have been powerful if they held on for more than a half of the video, but all they did was trade 5 of themselves for 9 newfort guys and 1 kingdom guy
Fucker could've been high and missclicked "He did kill himself in protest, let's not look at this banana peel at his foot, this has probably nothing to do with it all, what a hero."
reality mirrors art or art mirrors reality, war heros coming home than blowing their brains out one day seemingly out of nowhere is very very real so that shit hits hard.
Summary of every group and their impact: - Cult: Directly responsible for the reputation of anarchy groups by destroying a faction unprovoked - Flesh Seekers: Perpetuation of Kingdom's fear and paranoia of outsiders - Newfort: that one side character everyone likes that inevitably dies as a plot point 5 minutes in - Kingdom: Gradually evolved from a simple group trying to control two bridges and unite the server, killing cannibals in the process, to a rapidly collapsing empire only really known for killing innocents and nearly triggering a worldwide war - NOI: Diplomatic faction risen to a sort of coalition status after facing Kingdom aggression; forms EDEN after the fall of Kingdom and manhunt of Seabass
I think Newfort deserved a little more respect than "side character that dies in 5 mins." They went thru the most despite having a noble cause and paid the ultimate price thru no fault of their own.
Ngl it's super sick how Cult Clan and The Flesh Eaters were willing to be so antagonistic and create so much drama despite their significantly lower numbers. This content is amazing and I don't even play Zomboid, keep it up
Absolutely, respect to all the players we fought against, they fought well. It was hella fun for our group because of the early bounties put on us we were basically fighting a 5v90 during the event hah
@@struudel I wish I coulda met up with yall I couldn't make it into louisville because of how early the checkpoint got set up. In all honesty I was trying to shoot peregrine, I had an assault rifle and a pistol I could have killed him but got locked in the surrender animation. Rice would have got killed anyway I did it even if I didn't run away
What i love is that at the end Brother wasn't even trying to maintain control, he just went AWOL with his friend which lets the peace delegate to assume power on Kingdom unchallenged.
he was always the antagonist, used a common enemy to unite the people and made no attempt at peace and when the enemy was defeated he picked another group to unite his people against
@@TheGraySeed This is a pretty common line historically amongst tyrants and dictators. If you hold power with an iron fist the goal becomes not to let a revolution happen until you've already lived a long and happy life, and then flee the country when it happens, otherwise you're getting torn apart in the streets sooner or later. North Korea is basically the only modern exception, which did so with massive investment by the Soviets, allowing them to install a mythology of the Kim family (not even their original name) and effectively work as a monarchy, establishing the rulers as godlike (as opposed to older western monarchies establishing their rulers as chosen by god).
@@stewiex2419 Right? He was robbing people from day one. There was no need for a toll system on the bridge - it was glorified mugging at gunpoint. Let's call it what it was. Brother was worse than the Cult, because at least you knew what the Cult was and you knew to avoid them, whereas he pretended everything he was doing was justified. And it made for incredible storytelling lol.
@@brentsyog8274 If he didn't those guys would have run amok entirely. Brother had the toughest job on the server and he still couldn't reign all his guys in. Should have delegated more authority to some lieutenants from the start
@@burningshine5524 bro its not that deep. If you want to change something then go on download zombie and hop on next time. Nobody's wanted to lead except brother
While overlooked, Gleen's story is both tragic and impactful. Joining Newfort, he didn't have the best gear, just being the funny businessman with a briefcase. However, he devoted his time to a worthy cause, hoping to rebuild civilization. It was only until his friends, purpose, and home were finally taken from him that he left the last remnants of his group. In his final moments of grief and pain, he stormed the prison, daring to take as many zombies with him as he could. Enshrouded in fog, he charged in a man, dedicated on enacting revenge on the rotting horrors that brought out the monsters in once-normal people and, in the end, shambled out of the mist, his being now one with the very force he worked so hard to conquer. In the end, he found his place with his new community, this time however, on the other side of the fence.
gotta respect yankee when second bridge got attacked. instead of hiding and tryna heal he stood there shooting back giving his teammate time to escape. bro died for the kingdom
Honestly I never thought about it like that. He heavily underestimated them which made me not take him very seriously. But looking back on it once the threat actually showed up he stood his ground instead of pointlessly trying to run away. Very underrated comment
Tbf with that many wounds you're basically dead, and he was sitting on the 2nd floor, trying to pick them off with the last few seconds he had, so I'm not sure it's exactly no cover, considering how hard it was to shoot him probably
i must admit this feels like zombie tv show, characters altered by choice and death. It was harrowing seeing each player die, the intrigue the violence but then the peace felt so organic. Bravo sir
Brothers transition from a good leader to a murderer was a crazy narrative. Killing innocents, and then pretty much directly causing war with the empire single handedly.
@@brednbudr2406 except the empire literally said they didn’t want war and brother just goes “well if you’re gonna fight us than we’re gonna kill you, so it’s war.”
@@brednbudr2406 bro literally is like "oh yeah well you should have gotten out of the car" >prior cases of people getting out of their car and getting gunned down >unprovoked attacking a base. i mean wars in this type of content are fun and good but dont crybully and act like you're the victim lol
@@brednbudr2406 It's also bogus that their spy was just directly feeding him the info of where Kingdom members were in real time. You could easily call that cheating. And yeah, the imperial guy had people fooled and helped manipulate people into turning against Brother with his inside people.
"Brother killed an innocent" - you sure about that? That guy was hiding all this weaponry on his person, he was being sneaky and lying to them, how do you know he's an "innocent?" And one of the organizers of the "peace party" holding a gun to someone's head and saying how they're going to blow him away unless he joins them, that's fine? Brother held a big group together through the worst of times and attacks and protected his group. Then when the danger is mostly wiped out, everyone is all brave to turn against him and go their own way.
NGL, I know Xanax was probably playing a role, but out of all the cult member he might've been the most cold blooded psychopath in the group, while everyone was "lets go out for revenge, and f them up to avenge RedGrave" Xanax went in, Massacered probably half the people in New Fort, and in the end he didnt just die. (i like animation and drawing and seeing xanax death just made me think of this next part) When I saw Xanax death it wasnt just a death, a man riddled with bullet holes, dying quickly due to blood loss, not only did he go out smiling, he also went out with a joke. You can even hear it in his voice "Thats it for me boys!". Down right Xanax you're trully a great player and did an awesome portrayal at a trully nefarious character, Props to you.
He was brutal. He reminds me of villains like Ramsay Bolton and the Mountain. I was reading a part of the ASOIAF books where the Mountain talks about cutting out a mans eyes and giving them to another man then says that he hopes four eyes will do him better than two, and if not, then they'll cut that ones eyes out and hand them to the next, six will do better than four. That kind of depravity, I think, the CULT embodied that in their own primal, hateful way. It's like the Joker or something. Evil.
Only way to have fun in these kind of events. 30+group in a server is too much and look how it just devolve into chaos of mob mentality and bullying other groups, plus snitches. This might seem fun watching as a Video but I can guarantee you that's practically the most boring part of the event being inside the largest group in the server. Nothing happened most of the time in there making huge bases where no one can realistically do anythign about it lol zero point and waste of time the only one who had fun is the guys who went out to PvP like Seabass despite getting ratted out like crazy.
This was a cinemtatic masterpiece. The beginning talks of "cannibals are just a myth" and immediately being proven wrong felt like a scene straight out of a movie with not enough screen time. The cult party of experienced players taking down 9 others while only losing 4, struudel's silent revenge. Jacob becoming an anime protagonist, organising an insurrection and persuing peace. Brother becoming an embittered monarch and being left with nothing in the end. The survivors of newfort returning to rebuild what was destroyed in honor of the survivors. Abosule Cinema.
@@tronicman351puts one final bullet in the head of the dude he was just mercilessly pushing down, then ends up in a fist fight with. Died with a smile on his face 😭
It was brutal cause they were the group that felt relatable since they were average in group size and legit felt like just a bunch of friends hanging around
@@Mezha07 Their first real point of contact with another survivor group also happened to be the biggest psychopaths. They defended themselves and killed one of the Cult's member and as a result effectively got kamikaze'd
The Cult being made up of 5 hardcore PvP guys and just raiding a base when horribly outnumbered was peak. I was lowkey hoping they would have survived longer.
The CULT clan were great villains - they were like the king Joffrey of the game. Played their role so well you kinda loved to hate them and miss them when they are gone lol.
given he was in a car during im pretty sure most of the second raid of newfort i'd say his teammates were the real powerhouses with pushing 💪 xanax died an honorable death fr, in a battle
Honest to god, this is some amazing story telling. As some one getting into youtube my self this has inspired me beyond no end! Amazing work! I haven't cheered at a video ever, but at the end there when they finaly got the last cult member I litraly clapped my hands, well worth the pay off!
I didn't see anything about this character, so I feel like giving some props to the quiet character arc of OneGreenSole. Brings the kind of energy of a quiet veteran with a strong sense of honor. One of the original survivors of Newfort after the first 2 raids from the Cult, to quiet members of The Kingdom - but still immediately on the front lines for when Struudel went for his final seige. Even calling for Goon, the other Newfort survivor, when he knew it was Struudel. Respect to them both for not going too far and getting caught up in the excitement of the chase, but playing smart and methodical when it came to getting justice (not revenge). The cherry on top is when Struudel drives past OneGreenSole outside the compound when OneGreenSole is pulling up the car - and immediately sees the opportunity to go after Struudel before he gets away... determined to not let him get away for the murder of another person. But then into the chase, he realizes he's alone and that's exactly where Struudel wants him to be.. so he does the smart move and humbly retreats from the fight to live another day. Truly masterful storytelling, and the extra feel-good bonus at the end for being able to form New Newfort from the rubble of the first. Enjoyed this very much, kudos to all who worked with this project
Same dude, you can tell it's not scripted because theres no way I would've killed him that quickly, definitely would've liked to see longer cult vs. newfort war or rick killing struudel in the end
Crazy how the kingdom tried to arrest the empire on someone else's base while they were raiding it. It felt like brother thought he ruled the whole server, can understand how frustrated empire was!
He was the only one capable of ruling because every other society was either murderers or a bunch of people that thought they could rule with a weak fist. Brother did nothing wrong, and he kept his kingdom alive and thriving, despite those who wished to burn it to the ground. The best part is, he was so strong they couldn’t even kill him in the end. He still got to live a peaceful life with Jacob, the snake never being able to say he won against Brother
@@moneygrabber6720 Brother what are you talking about? He just turned off radar position and escaped. The goal was never to kill him anyway, it was peace xD
@@wolfwyvern3662 the ending was very clear that they kept going out to try and find and kill him, but they couldn’t find him. Their goal was not peace, it was to take over where they are the now ones in charge and Brother was too smart to be taken down by them. He is the one true leader
@@moneygrabber6720 Not being found on a Zomboid map with 100 players is not strength its just prime roaching out KEKW, he had only 1 friend left on the entire world which is his duo
@@wolfwyvern3662 and that’s perfect because that’s all you need in life. Just one friend you can truly call your brother. (You seem to not be going along with the overinvestment joke where you care too much about something. Think of it like the Helldivers 2 community. Just play along)
I sort of get the feeling they didn't want to tussel with each other much cause they were both factions with hardcore players. Kinda felt like they wanted to take down the easy pickings (which is a smart play for early game advantage) before going head on with each other. Still would've been fun to see them at each others throats though.
The Kingdom: *Acts hostile towards friendly faction The Empire: "Yo bro why you be like that?" Brother: "For some reason they're wanting to fight us guys" Can't believe I was actually rooting for Cult clan in this one.
i mean Brother doesn't know every single detail that his teammates does. That is how real world war starts. It is started by a small conflicted leading to leaders not trying to understand the other side. From Brother's point of view, their members noticed a suspicious people and investigated. From the Empire's point of view it was a call for war. During the talks seemed like Brother never knew about the alliance so they didn't know whether the faction was friendly or not.
@Pr.BueJay Personally I enjoyed them killing Rice. And I was rooting for the Kingdom this entire time after the Cult massacred Newfort. I guess it's just different opinions.
@@synful6491 holy shit bro this is even more messed up than cult members being cannibals hahahaha. This is what I call a deterrent. I wish they had found it.
@@Presidentti_El_Cabio weak? Hell nah, although most of tye newfort members weren't great at pvp like they are, it's still a huge feat to pretty much destroyed an entire group, leaving only three survivors with only 4 members.

Man you can’t forget 49:26 ! Literally looked like an anime villain reminiscing before his final battle. And then the tribal music begins for the hunt!
Jacob's moment when he spoke was probably the most impactful thing I've ever watched, almost like it was out of a really good or cheesy show. The whole hour was just a ton of dudes playing the game, but Jacob? Man, what a climatic scene
Brother's fall from grace is beautifull, the way he goes from helping his surrounding nations to killing anyone suspected of cannibalism to manipulating his people into attacking NOI
Sany died for being overzealous and not playing carefully at all. The clip of her firing her guns claiming to be a "fighter" was heavy foreshadowing... Saw it coming a mile away.
I actually appreciate what the CULT clan brought to the table. - has the fewest members out of all the groups - each members have their own unique skillset and what they are good at. - doesn't have much weaknesses because they are versatile enough. - provided fun and immersion as the bandit group. - despite having the fewest numbers, is feared individually because of what they can bring up to the table. - weren't some ragtag group, but an organized group with each of tehri actions are strategically aligned to break the biggest group's weakpoints. - are strategists. they know they are outnumbered in shootouts so they decided to take each survivors one by one if they are isolated.
They gave Akatsuki from Naruto vibes. All individually feared with one man army capabilities held together by a de facto leader who managed to organize them. Honestly a 10/10 antagonist group
These events are the most fun. 1. Seabass was a loose canon. We definitely didn't tell him to go there, or to kill anyone. Just like a real society, sometimes people do whatever they want regardless. 2. Riceman died because he lied about being in the cannibal faction. If you didn't notice, there were a lot of spies (Rokas), and Cannibals (Ryan, etc). Had to protect our people. 3. We assumed CULT would hit us first - we kind of just got lucky that they attacked (and lost a lot to) Rick's group first. We were fortifying a base because a lot of our team was nowhere near as experienced at PVP as them. Staying alive meant playing to our strength - numbers for building! 4. Narcyziak actually warned me people were trying to kill me (Rokas especially) and we decided to let everyone else try to be king and we left to go have fun in Louisville :] 5. We later recaptured Cheese, had a trial, found him not guilty and released him into League of Stoners base. Also, I have screenshots of him riding with CULT members early in the game, so we had great evidence to be skeptical of him. 6. I hung up the call with Zen because of behind the scenes Discord information you don't see. I knew what they were gonna do, the call was a formality for the video. I'm sure everyone has their own way they would've ruled The Kingdom! I wish them all the best in organizing something for the next event! Do something epic, make the world right, whatever you want! This was my attempt lol, and i'm proud of how many people we kept alive during the event. We had the best/biggest base, the most loot and the most lives saved. I hope to upload some content in the future xox Brother
@@CyberIsNotHere theres a lot of meta gaming in the discord that obviously didnt make sense to put in the video. ryan was part of this whole spy/cannibal/chaos faction, whatever they were.
Some context from the view on The Empire (NOI): The Empire started during the first season of the Project Aftermath PVP server. There, we had tons of fun semi-RPing The Empire with a full fledged trading system, military, and government. We sat at a comfortable 50 members with about 20-25 active. We had a base and made many enemies (shout out to LVSF). When the civ event started, Arch-Duke (an Imperator), Snizzle (Our head of military), and myself (Imperator Zen) decided to bring the Empire to the event as well. Out informant, Rokas, played with us during the Project Aftermath server. He joined the Kingdom since he had a different spawn than us. Our group was an Empire, but we had a heavy focus on Democracy and fairness for our members. We were all equals, and I think that is what compelled so many people to want to join the Empire (even defectors from the Kingdom!) Discord was used by most groups in this video (that I know). It was a HUGE communication tool for members outside event hours. Our use of Discord was highlighted during the video to be knowledge because of its use during the Seabass incident. We started small by looting etc and eventually merged with the guys at Rosewood Fire. There we met one of our former enemies from LVSF, Blixia, but we decided to put that behind us due to being outside this event. We made a peace treaty (through Discord) between the Empire and the Kingdom during the fight on cannibals. We even started a coalition chat in our Discord to fight against the cannibals (although we did not do much, since we were so far). When we ran into The Kingdom for the first time, it was actually just us driving around and happening to run into them. We tried to tell them about our treaty but they shot at us. When we went to Doe Valley to try to fight the Kingdom, it was only because they literally stole and ransacked the base from New Ekron. Then, later, Seabass attacked and killed one of our own at our own base. Not shown in the video, but this was not the first time he had been at our base. The previous day he had actually been caught aiming his gun at our members and refusing to talk while scouting at our base. This was before we knew of any declaration of war against us. We were just trying to protect our own. So, we merged with The Riverside Alliance, and eventually, New Ekron. We eventually hunted down Seabass through the use of our informant to kill him for what he did to ProGamerGuy at our base. During the Battle at Riverside, we were planning the entire time to kill the Kingdom members hiding out there. From our limited knowledge, the Kingdom tried to kill us every time we saw them, so we wanted to dwindle their numbers. Before the call with Brother, we actually wanted peace with the Kingdom because we were genuinely worried we would lose more of our members, but, after what Brother said during the call and when we hung up, we knew he would want war. This is when the Kingdom really started to fall apart. The peace convoy was sent to our base, and we made peace. However, the Empire did not want to be a part of EDEN. We knew most of these members were still loyal to Brother, which was not shown in the video. During some of the final moments of the event, our informant, Rokas, was actually poisoned by someone and died. So, Arch-Duke, Snizzle, and myself made a pact to not join Eden, as the original plan for EDEN was to leave the county across the LV bridge. All of our members except one also had the same sentiment. So, I took a gold ring off each of my fingers and told them to bring the Empire to new lands. To quote Motion when he left for EDEN, "You guys are the heart of the Empire, don't ever loose that heart, please." We then went to hunt down Brother and the person who poisoned Rokas in LV. One of our own died, and we decided to bail due to the increased amount of zombies there. So in the end, the original 3 members of the Empire were the only one surviving and some of (if not the only) people who stayed behind and did not cross the bridge. Noble Deaths: Fishdoor22 - Died a noble death during the Battle of Riverside Progamerguy - Killed by Seabass at our base Trashman - Unfortunately died during crossfire fighting zombies Ryu - Killed by the undead after our successful extraction of The Kingdoms guns SSilly - Died to infection MrKiano - "died the way he lived, with a fiery passion for religon" Weapons - Died to zombies in LV Saint Doogal - "died whilst AFK, still one of the people of all time" Shout out to everyone that made this event truly unforgettable. I had an amazing time playing with all of you, and I hope we can return soon. Maybe I'll put together a video for our perspective of this event, as there were a lot of fun moments that wouldn't really of made sense to be put in this video. Gloria ad Imperium!

Newfort took care of the largest threat on the server and paid the price in blood many times over. It was sad to see the group get decimated in the process of taking down the cult.
Newforts sacrifice was sad but pretty badass. Even though CULT killed most of you, I don't think they expected you guys to fight tooth and nail to the death which ultimately destroyed their faction and took out a huge threat to the end goal of civilization on the server. The whole Newfort arc was my favourite part of this video, such a bittersweet ending.
@@WrestleGermainia same here. Almost cried when the last two survivors buried their friends and tried to rebuild the base, even knowing it was for them only and fallen people. Such a great guys.
Better than Netflix, I havent been so glued to watching something for a long while. Also kind of love the most hardass people were named things like Seabass and Struudel. It's nice to see some of the players in the comments being good natured about it too.
Strudel death being the leader killing member then dying on the train tracks was lowkey deep. The leader lives to watch it all fall and then gets revenge and completes the task to die and meet his men
Definite favorites were NewFort, NOI/EDEN, and Cult. NewFort were the ragtag group of inexperienced but good-willed people just trying to survive, NOI was the great unifier against The Kingdom who had fallen from grace, and Cult were a small, ruthless gang of violent criminals looking to eradicate the others. Its fun to see how a hard-headed leader like Brother was good in the early game as a constant force pushing his people to build themselves up, but was bad in the late game as he fanned the flames of paranoia and made The Kingdom fall from under him
@jaredjosephsongheng372 yeah, but he didn't exactly help the situation by disregarding the concerns of the other clans and being non-apologetic/apathetic about seabass' behavior lol
@@HarvestZ and I have been watching yours for 6 months so I look forward to seeing the next 5 years of your magnificent creations! Keep up the splendid work and style. I am sure it is incredibly hard but please know that I appreciate it immensely!!!
You don't know how much this means dude, actually is kind of crazy to me. But yeah for sure I'll keep up the quality at least with these civilization videos, I tried my best to put everything I had into this one and as long as they're still performing I'll definitely keep doing stuff like this. Thanks again for the kind words ❤
@@HarvestZOh please do! I hope this video makes you realize how awesome these civilization videos are because I will be watching all future ones like a movie! 😁 I hope there’s always a few clans like clut clan! They brought so much drama that I was actually rooting for them in the end!
Dude!! After that last video, had to see this one. Epic tale! Wonderful story, pacing, selected peaks and valleys, and editing!! I can not believe I've slept on these and am very happy to now watch them. You have an excellent talent and community. Very, very nicely done!!
The way Struudel was scouting for his last assault I’m convinced 5 Struudels would have taken out the kingdom 😂😂 also this is one of the finest pieces of narrative let’s play I’ve ever seen.
1 struudel almost killed 5 of the kingdom lol. Harvest didn't put it in the video but the health bar of the ppl chasing him were so low you couldn't see any health left. Like 1hp.
Holy shit this is one of the best videos I've ever watched. Genuinely feels like a fully fledged zombie drama show. The tension, characters and music. The lore and ending of brother and his duo is so cool, he spent the rest of his days singing and exploring. Newforts rise, fall and eventually peaceful ending was perfect. The defecting and betrayal was perfect, thank you for making this video I love it so much dude.
For a very aggressive group, I was sad about CULT destroying NewFort but man, Struudel going 1 v 30+, can't help but cheer for him lol. The fact that he got a kill was amusing. That didn't felt like a win for Kingdom at all. 😂 Also, Kingdom felt more like a CULT than CULT haha!
whats funny is, harvest was doing an interview with me (ended up not in the video) a bit outside the base when Struudel was shooting that guy in our base. if I didn't been at the interview, I very well could have been standing around there and got shot lol.
I was so committed to this story!!! Well done to HarvestZ and the whole event/video team, all 100 players and major shoutout to Rick, Brother and Struudel (in no particular order) - you all did a phenomenal job! Also Brother, your music is amazing.
it's kinda tragic how that war between the empire and the kingdom almost started by mistake basically, just because new ekron didnt manage to tell the empire they moved. all that bloodshed over a simple miscommunication very nice that they were able to come together and settle their differences for the betterment of humanity
Yeah, we planned to meet with the empire at the warehouses, but they didn’t get the message and we needed up waiting for them for like an hour while everything went down (I was the guy in charge of NE)
Out of all of the "100 Players Rebuild Civilization" videos on RUclips, this is the most cinematic and saddest one, the ending is great, and I can't wait to see more. Definitely getting a sub.

After 5 months of work and probably around 300-400 hours of editing my first civilization video is finally finished. Just as a sort of PSA, while everything in this video is unscripted please do not harass anyone for their actions in this video. Being in a one-life event can get pretty tense at times, so people might act differently than they would normally with the stresses of being an event. But anyways, thanks so much for watching! Really hope you guys like it!
animation for sponsor was sick
@@Cryspoeth47 damn thanks 😄
@HarvestZ
Appreciate for Spending your Actual IRL Time To Make This Videos for having a Bless Time For a Hour, Thank you Man ❤
Lowkey need it cause warthunder is one hell of a grind, good video too btw
Loved the video, i just got the game recently. I sure hope you do another event like this soon i would love to join. never participated in a game's one life run before, but I had been thinking all day about what I'd do if I were to play one. Keep up the great work.

Let's put some respect on OneGreenSole name. Got picked up by a Newfort, helped to kill 4 of CULT members, who was THE deadliest group for sure, lost his friends and base, joined Kingdom seeking revenge, and as soon as he heard of Struudel presence near the base, he stromed out immediately, not afraid of getting killed. And as soon as the last CULT member was dead he left with his pal to reestablish Newfort and made a funeral for all lost members of their faction.
Legend
For real, that man is a legend. He deserves all the honour.
Bro was a hero
Straight out of a movie
had me tearing up
@@jlmoose3511 Maybe it's time to step outside for a bit
One of the best moments of this I haven't seen anyone mention is when the cultists had Redgraves funeral. "Is this even Redgraves body". "It is now."
They were bloodthirsty, but they cared for their own.
Ts was peak lol
The RP went hard haha
"I've never seen a cannibal in my life, I feel like its just a myth"
Moments before getting raided by cannibals.
Peak NPC moment

interesting how brother started to speak like a dictator. " I dont want a war, but theyve given us no choice" right after denying peace lol
ong
Trash leader to be honest
@@nelapsi. true enough it was just annoying to see how bad of a leader he eas
The video would’ve been a lot less interesting without him
its the governor
Struudel had the coldest death out of them all, stumbling out of his wrecked car, limping over through the woods and onto the train tracks, before finally collapsing and dying
nah he died like a noob
Some death note type shit.
@@secretpotatoes bro it’s for the story, and I guarantee that he’d wipe the floor wit ya.
nah the dude is a noob lol cry EZ GG
@@Azuria969 are you a newfort/the kingdom ex member by any chance?
This is the first time I played on a 100 player server, and I think we did really well considering my group had no pvp experience, let alone experience with advanced trajectory. I'm just glad we played a part in the story, and I find it poetic that the two who survived were some of the randoms we picked up along the way. Especially since they returned and rebuilt the base. The fact they buried us and had a funeral was just lovely, I didn't know about any of it until after the event ended. I was so surprised to see the Newfort green and the burial.
The best part is I had NO idea what else happened, so I got to experience the last 2 days watching the video for the first time. And man, Harvest, you did a bloody good job. Only a matter of time til this vid hits the algo. Thank you so much for letting us be a part of it.
Long live Newfort!
Long live Newfort!

The Cult Clan was incredible. They really had the feel of a villain team that progressively dwindled. Struudel's silent revenge attack was distressing and his slow death felt so oddly peaceful and poetic. That's a season 1 final boss if I've ever seen one.
If this is a TV show the cult faction are probably military veterans who came back from war but instead of being called a war hero they got labeled as murderers by citizen and society in general.
After they got exposed by journalists on all the war crimes the soldiers had committed during their tours in Irag.
When the apocalypse happened months later the cult was form because they hate society and wants to see all of them burn for sacrificing their service and their lives in the frontline only to get spat on by their community after coming back home when the war is over
i could smell the sweat from my monitor they got what was coming tbqh
@@THECREATOR49Steambruh😂
Why did his attack embarrass you??
@@voreenthusiast3638 Dang, youre right. Must have mistaken its meaning. I'll probably go find an actual good word to replace it.
Edit: I'll replace erroneous "mortifying" with "distressing". It seems closer to what I was trying to mean. There's still probably a better word out there.
The Kingdom: We're the good guys.
Also Kingdom: Does all the things a psychotic bad group would do.
that's literally western history. England, Spain, France, Italy, The United States; you've described us all!
@AJ-em2rb that's all history. No need to exclude the east.
@@KaminaCicadaYep, it's human history as much as I wish that wasn't the case.
@@AJ-em2rb lmao conveniently just the western societies, eh? Not literally every successful society in human history? Lmao the hatred of western society and whites while reaping all of their accomplishments has gotten to borderline mental illness levels
Yeah, it's pretty realistic. They take entirely hostile actions, including chasing down people who obviously want nothing to do with them and trying to kill them, and then play the victim and change the narrative during their little meeting about how they were "looking for peace" and the others "chose to fight" them. When their leader literally hung up on negotiations and exercised 0 diplomacy.
But hey, what can you expect from a feudal society? Entitlement is kind of how it works.
Dang Struudel getting out of the car dying. while walking on the train tracks and finally dropping to death is such a climatic ending for a villian, props for the role-play!
Fr, he and Xanax had some cold asf death scenes
It's like the post-nuke scene in Modern Warfare 1
Yeah. The Gigachad life and decent end. He inspired us to join the Cult. Blood to the blood god.
He Died like the walking dead
Every good story needs a good heel!
"he cured me man, i cant just leave him like that"
thats a real one right there 😭
reed a real one
and then proceeded to leave him anyway so how real was he lmao
@@mrwillham5393but by then Brother had dipped too
@@MBSA7 you're not wrong. Brother had forseen that all of his people were.plotting against him an knew it was time to take all the goods an hightail it outta there
he killed the innocent dude though, so it evens out.
Xanax here, it was so fun playing this event. All the best to the newfort bois, who were strong opponents with great a great base defense, they didn't run and took the fight head on. There was lots of background fortifications that weren't shown in the video, same as the pov of Jake, who mauled people when we were breaching from all sides. Respect to my brothas who went all out on this raid. And finally big thanks to @HarvestZ for creating such amazing event!
bruh your last scene was cold AF. big kudos to your group as the villain. mase the video so entertaining
You were my favourite person in this playthrough
Warrior
"Thats it for me boys" hardest line
The Villain we deserve🎉🎉
Can't believe a faction had people named both Rick AND Glen in a zombie apocalypse game.
must man shout out the walking dead those names are staples in zombie apocalypse rip glenn man he went out sad in the walking dead
"it was neegan's fault" LOL
I watched this entire thing, from start to finish. An incredible, captivating, gaming experience. I've never even played Project Zomboid but I was so captured by the growth of the kingdoms and their developments. No wonder this has millions of views. Music, pacing, quality overall, it was all on point. Incredible work, Harvest.
Thanks so much for the kind words! I've been watching your skits for a few years now (the beamng stuff is my favorite it's super unique) but yeah this means a lot coming from someone familiar with the process, thanks again ❤
WHAT HUH WHY ARE YOU HERE
@HarvestZ you need to pin him to see how bizarre it is to see some of our favorite skit creators watch the same thing as us
do u play pz or just found this vid
NAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
No lie, those Cult dudes are REALLY good at using their small numbers and running circles around everyone else
Yes, they managed to create confusion and chaos which added significantly to it. It's one thing to see the defense of a base in a show like The Walking Dead, but it's another to see it actually played out without any script.
The way the cultists came in circles to comb the area, the way they attacked as one team against inexperienced, scattered players... Perfection.
All the cannibals were great! Should have had one or two more small groups like that I think.
I've played on a couple publics servers and ran into Struudel and the gang twice. Once was no mercy, but the other i was actually robbed and let live. One of the most immersive experiences.
I still found it weird when they ate the infected guy.
@@dobryrusk That is kinda the issue with low pop warfare that people don't quite understand. When you understand low population warfare. You see the native Americans in American history in a much different light. When it comes to a modern day apocalypse. The less information you give away the better.
Yes you technically can make an area like that defendable, but that's going to require a level of organization that only preplaning can really provide. And you'd need a lot more then just 12 people to make something like that sustainable. If they wanted to live in that area. They should have built fences, and not walls around their compound. That would have saved them a lot of time and resources they needed to fortify the interior of the buildings, and blocking off the entrances while also providing the concealment they needed to keep an eye on those aproaching with ill intent.
The Kingdom: “We got a Cult to kill!” - Only killed one member 😭
Newfort carried so hard shoutout to them
Fr
TBF they did get who was perhaps the most dangerous player on the map... Excluding gigachad Seabass, that dude was built different
I love how Newfort's leader just fucking went terminator on their asses during the second attack. Even if unsuccessful that's based as hell.
They did kill lots of the other cannibal group
@@NotTheCIA1961A true leader
The Cult Clan did such damage on the server The Kingdom got paranoid thinking they had a whole army when they were just a group of five screwing around
1:09:16 It's also worth noting, BeyondBrash is the one who killed Struudel. So, he killed the most aggressive person on the server in retaliation to said person's violence, was against the killing of the unarmed hostage without a trial later, and offed himself in protest of his group's growing aggression.
“Let’s not rob him”
You have 10 guns pointed at him asking him to give up the sledgehammer 😭
Well technically they're just mugging people. It's robbery if they snuck in the bases to loot.
A true reflection of humanity
But they only took a box of nails. 🔨
Good way to get sledgehammered
I thought it was cool AF that someone kept it legit and didn't act like a robber baron in the moment. That's kinda what caused the eventual decline of Brothers authority
Dude, struudel and his team was peak status. Hate players like them in game, but literally made the story so good. Such a great part of this video
Yeah. I hate super aggressive PvP types in a game where PvE is generally the main goal. They are hopefully cool dudes in the real world though.
@@Lord_Shadowfang Agreed. Seems like Xanax is a pretty cool dude, judging by his comments on this video. Good stuff.
Peak status my ass. Got their whole squad killed in 2 days lol. If they had any sense they'd have formed an alliance with flesh seekers and then hit the smaller factions 1 by 1 while giving them a choice, join or get eaten. Eventually building an army that could take out New Fort with a Hammer and Anvil strategy
@@thegoon3088 I see you missed the entire point of their presence. But I'll let you feel however you want. They accomplished their purpose perfectly for the story.
@@thegoon3088 The "role" they had was to spread chaos and be in there for an exciting time but not necessarily a long one. I imagine if it was actual characters, they would be the broken individuals that perhaps had already given up on life before the apocalypse even started. They didn't care to form a tribe or rebuild civilization, they were there to enjoy watching the world burn.
I think the best part was the betrayal in freeing cheddar. While the kingdom fights over if a needless war is the best outcome some humanity shines through.
You'd be laughing witnessing what Jacob's role is on other videos such as trapping 100 players on the mall.
The fact Strudel became the silent enemy is actually terrifying.

Rick and everyone in NewFort were so real. Rick was always one of the first ones to run head first into danger against the Cult clan. RIP NewFort
Rick was a gentleman in a horrible world, just like Ned Stark
newfort lives
i crylot for newfort, ripgood boys oof newfort
This is literally a full on movie. The Cult were the best villains ever. Not just that, but with the leader of The Cult being the last member, and trying to kill all of The Kingdom, was awesome. I think the best ending, was watching Strudel escape from his car, and slowly walk down the railroad, barely alive. He was given all the time to think back to his decisions before collapsing. Best villain ever.
you're right, that scene gave me emotion !
incredible
I honestly just love the fear he gave lol everyone freaked out trying to get strudel acting as if he was a devil waiting to destroy them
That boa strudel got aim tho
@@Chordgaille says by a guy with a manga profile pic...
@@Chordgaille14 is a tough age
The cults raid on newfort was actually sick, I always have to root for veteran players in small coordinated groups like this
The cult was the perfect heel faction, ruthless, effective, and powerful. They also attacked the most decent people on the server in Newfort, making their eventual downfall even more satisfying. Every good story needs a good villian and they pulled that off to a tee. Shout out to struudel goingnout like a g too.
I wish they would attack kingdom instead, we can only guess what forters would do if it weren't for early elimination
They're like military vets who came home after a war instead of being called war heros the community labeled them as murderers. only for the apocalypse to start and they took that opportunity to start beef with everyone but this time they can legally unalive people
"Effective and powerful" while being clapped by newfort folks who arent even that good, as rick said they were just a small group.
If they went on the Kingdom then their death would probably end faster than ever, just simply looking at the numbers.
Would have been powerful if they held on for more than a half of the video, but all they did was trade 5 of themselves for 9 newfort guys and 1 kingdom guy
@@F.B.Iok bud, you are right. They still made this video fun to watch.
@@josephbutler4950 good point, one small issue - you replied to a 1 month old comment
Beyondbrash killing himself in protest, even though he was the one who killed strudell is so poetic.
I was really expecting them to find a note on the body. Was astonished they didn't.
One of the most poinient story moments, the entire server celebrated him taking out the Cult and then... this!
Everyone cared about what he did for the kingdom until it went against their MO 😢
Fucker could've been high and missclicked
"He did kill himself in protest, let's not look at this banana peel at his foot, this has probably nothing to do with it all, what a hero."
reality mirrors art or art mirrors reality, war heros coming home than blowing their brains out one day seemingly out of nowhere is very very real so that shit hits hard.
Newfort: killed 4 cultists
Some random kingdom npc that Got Lucky on last cultist: WE KILLED CULTISTS
Fr newfort was the way cooler group
Don't be mean to the guy who killed em he went again the kingdom in protest with his own suicide
"WE DID IT!"
"nAh MaN iT wAs Me"
They also got the other cultest, but I agree with you l. Newfort really carried as well
It was the leader, so there's still reason to celebrate.
Rick was my favorite dude, he chased after an entire squad on foot after they killed one of his own. That man was a good leader.
Summary of every group and their impact:
- Cult: Directly responsible for the reputation of anarchy groups by destroying a faction unprovoked
- Flesh Seekers: Perpetuation of Kingdom's fear and paranoia of outsiders
- Newfort: that one side character everyone likes that inevitably dies as a plot point 5 minutes in
- Kingdom: Gradually evolved from a simple group trying to control two bridges and unite the server, killing cannibals in the process, to a rapidly collapsing empire only really known for killing innocents and nearly triggering a worldwide war
- NOI: Diplomatic faction risen to a sort of coalition status after facing Kingdom aggression; forms EDEN after the fall of Kingdom and manhunt of Seabass
New Ekron: Off-screen death
I think Newfort deserved a little more respect than "side character that dies in 5 mins." They went thru the most despite having a noble cause and paid the ultimate price thru no fault of their own.
@@ootboot3487oh yeah what happened to them? Did they merge with noi?
@@strangoman they made up most of the noi. they were bigger
I was the first member to have joined NOI about half a year ago, i lost my discord acount and in really fucking happy to see them still here
the newfort story going full circle, ending in the place they started, maybe not restarting civilization, but peaceful, is poetic
The group who sacrifice the most
its really bittersweet. could be a short series
Ngl bro I felt really bad for newfort group
@@htf5555 I thought about making something out of it. maybe second channel stuff
@@Ricksdetrix Damn such tragedy when i saw you die there you guys were the most peacefull group i feel bad for sanny 'thats it im dead goodbye' :C
Ngl it's super sick how Cult Clan and The Flesh Eaters were willing to be so antagonistic and create so much drama despite their significantly lower numbers. This content is amazing and I don't even play Zomboid, keep it up
true. also, props to them for being all respectfull and gg wp type. never seen pvp tryhards be so wholesome, i guess thats just pz
yeah the cult clan was pretty chill behind the scenes they were just amping up crazy characters for drama. Also rice did nothin wrong free my boy
Absolutely, respect to all the players we fought against, they fought well. It was hella fun for our group because of the early bounties put on us we were basically fighting a 5v90 during the event hah
@@struudel I wish I coulda met up with yall I couldn't make it into louisville because of how early the checkpoint got set up. In all honesty I was trying to shoot peregrine, I had an assault rifle and a pistol I could have killed him but got locked in the surrender animation. Rice would have got killed anyway I did it even if I didn't run away
@@Ryangames321 haha dang that be epic if you shot and killed their second in command, nice try tho
The fact they couldn't find Rick's body at New Newfort is mental. He was just rotting in a closet the rest of that event and they thought he went MIA.
Brother becoming the antagonist after Struudel´s death was peak storytelling
What i love is that at the end Brother wasn't even trying to maintain control, he just went AWOL with his friend which lets the peace delegate to assume power on Kingdom unchallenged.
he was always the antagonist, used a common enemy to unite the people and made no attempt at peace and when the enemy was defeated he picked another group to unite his people against
@@TheGraySeed This is a pretty common line historically amongst tyrants and dictators. If you hold power with an iron fist the goal becomes not to let a revolution happen until you've already lived a long and happy life, and then flee the country when it happens, otherwise you're getting torn apart in the streets sooner or later. North Korea is basically the only modern exception, which did so with massive investment by the Soviets, allowing them to install a mythology of the Kim family (not even their original name) and effectively work as a monarchy, establishing the rulers as godlike (as opposed to older western monarchies establishing their rulers as chosen by god).
@@stewiex2419 Right? He was robbing people from day one. There was no need for a toll system on the bridge - it was glorified mugging at gunpoint. Let's call it what it was. Brother was worse than the Cult, because at least you knew what the Cult was and you knew to avoid them, whereas he pretended everything he was doing was justified.
And it made for incredible storytelling lol.
Reminds me of Dutch in rdr2
"Is that even REDGRAVE's body?" "It is now." such is psychopath way of thinking xD
Yet so aggressively human
Brother literally embodies that trope "either die the hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain".
Bro sat in the base 90% of the video
@@brentsyog8274 If he didn't those guys would have run amok entirely. Brother had the toughest job on the server and he still couldn't reign all his guys in. Should have delegated more authority to some lieutenants from the start
@@Fly_By_NightXthat’s what happens when you let a 16 year old run a clan 😂 should have been older more experienced players should have taken that role
@@burningshine5524 who would, if not him?. Would you lead the clan?. Brother was literally no good but still better than nothing
@@burningshine5524 bro its not that deep. If you want to change something then go on download zombie and hop on next time. Nobody's wanted to lead except brother
brother did absolutely nothing but bark orders and take credit for others actions the entire time and still had the gall to become a villain
While overlooked, Gleen's story is both tragic and impactful.
Joining Newfort, he didn't have the best gear, just being the funny businessman with a briefcase. However, he devoted his time to a worthy cause, hoping to rebuild civilization. It was only until his friends, purpose, and home were finally taken from him that he left the last remnants of his group. In his final moments of grief and pain, he stormed the prison, daring to take as many zombies with him as he could. Enshrouded in fog, he charged in a man, dedicated on enacting revenge on the rotting horrors that brought out the monsters in once-normal people and, in the end, shambled out of the mist, his being now one with the very force he worked so hard to conquer. In the end, he found his place with his new community, this time however, on the other side of the fence.
that's a lot more poetic then I could put it. In reality, I took a wrong turn while heading back to base and decided to get the guns at prison.

gotta respect yankee when second bridge got attacked. instead of hiding and tryna heal he stood there shooting back giving his teammate time to escape. bro died for the kingdom
Man stood on the middle of the bridge, whitout cover, shooting at the cannibals
Absolute power move
I appreciate the respect man, you are now my favourite person
Honestly I never thought about it like that. He heavily underestimated them which made me not take him very seriously. But looking back on it once the threat actually showed up he stood his ground instead of pointlessly trying to run away. Very underrated comment
Tbf with that many wounds you're basically dead, and he was sitting on the 2nd floor, trying to pick them off with the last few seconds he had, so I'm not sure it's exactly no cover, considering how hard it was to shoot him probably
Struudel actually taking off the bandage so he'd finish bleeding out when he knew he was cooked was crazy
he tried to take it off to put the dirty bandage on his fresh wounds
@@2XtheFather Yeah, it looks like he's trying to save himself he just couldn't apply the dirty bandage quick enough.
Brother be like: You either die as a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain. Cold.

i must admit this feels like zombie tv show, characters altered by choice and death. It was harrowing seeing each player die, the intrigue the violence but then the peace felt so organic. Bravo sir
Brothers transition from a good leader to a murderer was a crazy narrative. Killing innocents, and then pretty much directly causing war with the empire single handedly.
That's bogus. The imperial clown wanted that and lied about a former alliance. That jerusalemjacob was just a backstabber from the get go.
@@brednbudr2406 except the empire literally said they didn’t want war and brother just goes “well if you’re gonna fight us than we’re gonna kill you, so it’s war.”

i mean wars in this type of content are fun and good but dont crybully and act like you're the victim lol
@@brednbudr2406 It's also bogus that their spy was just directly feeding him the info of where Kingdom members were in real time. You could easily call that cheating. And yeah, the imperial guy had people fooled and helped manipulate people into turning against Brother with his inside people.
"Brother killed an innocent" - you sure about that? That guy was hiding all this weaponry on his person, he was being sneaky and lying to them, how do you know he's an "innocent?" And one of the organizers of the "peace party" holding a gun to someone's head and saying how they're going to blow him away unless he joins them, that's fine? Brother held a big group together through the worst of times and attacks and protected his group. Then when the danger is mostly wiped out, everyone is all brave to turn against him and go their own way.

NGL, I know Xanax was probably playing a role, but out of all the cult member he might've been the most cold blooded psychopath in the group, while everyone was "lets go out for revenge, and f them up to avenge RedGrave" Xanax went in, Massacered probably half the people in New Fort, and in the end he didnt just die. (i like animation and drawing and seeing xanax death just made me think of this next part) When I saw Xanax death it wasnt just a death, a man riddled with bullet holes, dying quickly due to blood loss, not only did he go out smiling, he also went out with a joke. You can even hear it in his voice "Thats it for me boys!". Down right Xanax you're trully a great player and did an awesome portrayal at a trully nefarious character, Props to you.
He was brutal. He reminds me of villains like Ramsay Bolton and the Mountain. I was reading a part of the ASOIAF books where the Mountain talks about cutting out a mans eyes and giving them to another man then says that he hopes four eyes will do him better than two, and if not, then they'll cut that ones eyes out and hand them to the next, six will do better than four.
That kind of depravity, I think, the CULT embodied that in their own primal, hateful way. It's like the Joker or something. Evil.
« Was probably just playing a role » my brother in Christ that’s a videogame
@@ZWilver yeah but you don’t know if hes playing a role or actually joined the event just to kill as many people as possible
Only way to have fun in these kind of events. 30+group in a server is too much and look how it just devolve into chaos of mob mentality and bullying other groups, plus snitches. This might seem fun watching as a Video but I can guarantee you that's practically the most boring part of the event being inside the largest group in the server. Nothing happened most of the time in there making huge bases where no one can realistically do anythign about it lol zero point and waste of time the only one who had fun is the guys who went out to PvP like Seabass despite getting ratted out like crazy.
@@ZWilver haha I am fully aware, but I also dont want to call the man a cold blooded psychopath out of nowhere so i wanted to clarify that beforehand.
This was a cinemtatic masterpiece. The beginning talks of "cannibals are just a myth" and immediately being proven wrong felt like a scene straight out of a movie with not enough screen time. The cult party of experienced players taking down 9 others while only losing 4, struudel's silent revenge. Jacob becoming an anime protagonist, organising an insurrection and persuing peace. Brother becoming an embittered monarch and being left with nothing in the end. The survivors of newfort returning to rebuild what was destroyed in honor of the survivors. Abosule Cinema.
Xanax being an actual horror movie villian and dying cinematically
Not just cinematically but casually: “well that’s it for me boys” is such a thing that a ghost face would say
ngl, best psycho of the group
@@tronicman351puts one final bullet in the head of the dude he was just mercilessly pushing down, then ends up in a fist fight with. Died with a smile on his face 😭

The newfort arc was brutal.
they shouldve left when RIck said...
It was brutal cause they were the group that felt relatable since they were average in group size and legit felt like just a bunch of friends hanging around
@@Mezha07 Their first real point of contact with another survivor group also happened to be the biggest psychopaths. They defended themselves and killed one of the Cult's member and as a result effectively got kamikaze'd
Hn
The Cult being made up of 5 hardcore PvP guys and just raiding a base when horribly outnumbered was peak. I was lowkey hoping they would have survived longer.
I wish they had more members to make it more interesting.
their death felt like it would be a great end of the season for some tv series
@@Sinistra359 If they had more members I don't think the server would have survived lol
@mee091000 true lol but just imagine the chaos! Haha
They were a great villain. I was rooting for Newfort but wouldn't have been so invested if it weren't for their struggle against the cult
The CULT clan were great villains - they were like the king Joffrey of the game. Played their role so well you kinda loved to hate them and miss them when they are gone lol.
Strudel was so powerful the most powerful faction celebrated his death
given he was in a car during im pretty sure most of the second raid of newfort i'd say his teammates were the real powerhouses with pushing 💪
xanax died an honorable death fr, in a battle
Wow, this is incredible work. I didn't realize how long this video was until I reached the end. Engaging storytelling 👍
Being approved by PZ big names - nice work Harvest!
oh wow! PZ royalty here!
Hi Nurse
Same!! Such great storytelling
It’s going to be so complicated explaining this when people ask me my favourite movie now
XD
FOR REAL how will i explain my friends i'm just fascinated
Trueee
Honest to god, this is some amazing story telling. As some one getting into youtube my self this has inspired me beyond no end! Amazing work!
I haven't cheered at a video ever, but at the end there when they finaly got the last cult member I litraly clapped my hands, well worth the pay off!
I didn't see anything about this character, so I feel like giving some props to the quiet character arc of OneGreenSole. Brings the kind of energy of a quiet veteran with a strong sense of honor. One of the original survivors of Newfort after the first 2 raids from the Cult, to quiet members of The Kingdom - but still immediately on the front lines for when Struudel went for his final seige. Even calling for Goon, the other Newfort survivor, when he knew it was Struudel. Respect to them both for not going too far and getting caught up in the excitement of the chase, but playing smart and methodical when it came to getting justice (not revenge). The cherry on top is when Struudel drives past OneGreenSole outside the compound when OneGreenSole is pulling up the car - and immediately sees the opportunity to go after Struudel before he gets away... determined to not let him get away for the murder of another person. But then into the chase, he realizes he's alone and that's exactly where Struudel wants him to be.. so he does the smart move and humbly retreats from the fight to live another day. Truly masterful storytelling, and the extra feel-good bonus at the end for being able to form New Newfort from the rubble of the first. Enjoyed this very much, kudos to all who worked with this project
Rick died to soon, i would have loved to seen how things turned out if he stayed alive.
This guy likes toes
He had to go
Same dude, you can tell it's not scripted because theres no way I would've killed him that quickly, definitely would've liked to see longer cult vs. newfort war or rick killing struudel in the end
@@HarvestZ ive never seen any of your video's beffor, but thats some forgelab kind of content ther and im all for it
no rules means no rules, anarchy
Crazy how the kingdom tried to arrest the empire on someone else's base while they were raiding it. It felt like brother thought he ruled the whole server, can understand how frustrated empire was!
He was the only one capable of ruling because every other society was either murderers or a bunch of people that thought they could rule with a weak fist. Brother did nothing wrong, and he kept his kingdom alive and thriving, despite those who wished to burn it to the ground. The best part is, he was so strong they couldn’t even kill him in the end. He still got to live a peaceful life with Jacob, the snake never being able to say he won against Brother
@@moneygrabber6720 Brother what are you talking about? He just turned off radar position and escaped. The goal was never to kill him anyway, it was peace xD
@@wolfwyvern3662 the ending was very clear that they kept going out to try and find and kill him, but they couldn’t find him. Their goal was not peace, it was to take over where they are the now ones in charge and Brother was too smart to be taken down by them. He is the one true leader
@@moneygrabber6720 Not being found on a Zomboid map with 100 players is not strength its just prime roaching out KEKW, he had only 1 friend left on the entire world which is his duo
@@wolfwyvern3662 and that’s perfect because that’s all you need in life. Just one friend you can truly call your brother. (You seem to not be going along with the overinvestment joke where you care too much about something. Think of it like the Helldivers 2 community. Just play along)
This was really well made and I got invested enough to watch the whole thing. Great content my dude!!
Imagine if The Cult and the Flesh Seekers joined together before getting wiped, would of had the numbers
I sort of get the feeling they didn't want to tussel with each other much cause they were both factions with hardcore players. Kinda felt like they wanted to take down the easy pickings (which is a smart play for early game advantage) before going head on with each other.
Still would've been fun to see them at each others throats though.
would have*
Flesh Seekers would have been dead weight to Cult tbh. They were way too passive and chose to be aggressive at the worst points.
The Kingdom: *Acts hostile towards friendly faction
The Empire: "Yo bro why you be like that?"
Brother: "For some reason they're wanting to fight us guys"
Can't believe I was actually rooting for Cult clan in this one.
same. I hope I get to see them in action again
Based on the video, they were being cautious, and clearly rightfully so since the Empire had traitors inside the Kingdom.
i mean Brother doesn't know every single detail that his teammates does. That is how real world war starts. It is started by a small conflicted leading to leaders not trying to understand the other side. From Brother's point of view, their members noticed a suspicious people and investigated. From the Empire's point of view it was a call for war. During the talks seemed like Brother never knew about the alliance so they didn't know whether the faction was friendly or not.
I was rooting for them as soon as the kingdom killed Rice
@Pr.BueJay
Personally I enjoyed them killing Rice.
And I was rooting for the Kingdom this entire time after the Cult massacred Newfort.
I guess it's just different opinions.
Cult clan are 10/10 the fact they took a random body for a funeral for their first fallen member is gold
They never found Redgrave. I stored him in a cooler at our base
@@synful6491 holy shit bro this is even more messed up than cult members being cannibals hahahaha. This is what I call a deterrent. I wish they had found it.

Jacob's moment when he spoke was probably the most impactful thing I've ever watched, almost like it was out of a really good or cheesy show. The whole hour was just a ton of dudes playing the game, but Jacob? Man, what a climatic scene
what about beyonbrash su1cid
Brother's fall from grace is beautifull, the way he goes from helping his surrounding nations to killing anyone suspected of cannibalism to manipulating his people into attacking NOI
Sany died for being overzealous and not playing carefully at all. The clip of her firing her guns claiming to be a "fighter" was heavy foreshadowing... Saw it coming a mile away.

Seabass just wakes up every day and chooses violence. I'm impressed by the commitment to the bit.
I actually appreciate what the CULT clan brought to the table.
- has the fewest members out of all the groups
- each members have their own unique skillset and what they are good at.
- doesn't have much weaknesses because they are versatile enough.
- provided fun and immersion as the bandit group.
- despite having the fewest numbers, is feared individually because of what they can bring up to the table.
- weren't some ragtag group, but an organized group with each of tehri actions are strategically aligned to break the biggest group's weakpoints.
- are strategists. they know they are outnumbered in shootouts so they decided to take each survivors one by one if they are isolated.
thank you, very nice and accurate breakdown 🙌
They gave Akatsuki from Naruto vibes. All individually feared with one man army capabilities held together by a de facto leader who managed to organize them. Honestly a 10/10 antagonist group

@@struudel You are one scarry person.
KING KONG AIN'T GOT SHIT ON STRUUDEL
My man lived and died like Alonzo.
These events are the most fun.
1. Seabass was a loose canon. We definitely didn't tell him to go there, or to kill anyone. Just like a real society, sometimes people do whatever they want regardless.
2. Riceman died because he lied about being in the cannibal faction. If you didn't notice, there were a lot of spies (Rokas), and Cannibals (Ryan, etc). Had to protect our people.
3. We assumed CULT would hit us first - we kind of just got lucky that they attacked (and lost a lot to) Rick's group first. We were fortifying a base because a lot of our team was nowhere near as experienced at PVP as them. Staying alive meant playing to our strength - numbers for building!
4. Narcyziak actually warned me people were trying to kill me (Rokas especially) and we decided to let everyone else try to be king and we left to go have fun in Louisville :]
5. We later recaptured Cheese, had a trial, found him not guilty and released him into League of Stoners base. Also, I have screenshots of him riding with CULT members early in the game, so we had great evidence to be skeptical of him.
6. I hung up the call with Zen because of behind the scenes Discord information you don't see. I knew what they were gonna do, the call was a formality for the video.
I'm sure everyone has their own way they would've ruled The Kingdom! I wish them all the best in organizing something for the next event! Do something epic, make the world right, whatever you want! This was my attempt lol, and i'm proud of how many people we kept alive during the event. We had the best/biggest base, the most loot and the most lives saved.
I hope to upload some content in the future xox

Some context from the view on The Empire (NOI):
The Empire started during the first season of the Project Aftermath PVP server. There, we had tons of fun semi-RPing The Empire with a full fledged trading system, military, and government. We sat at a comfortable 50 members with about 20-25 active. We had a base and made many enemies (shout out to LVSF).
When the civ event started, Arch-Duke (an Imperator), Snizzle (Our head of military), and myself (Imperator Zen) decided to bring the Empire to the event as well. Out informant, Rokas, played with us during the Project Aftermath server. He joined the Kingdom since he had a different spawn than us. Our group was an Empire, but we had a heavy focus on Democracy and fairness for our members. We were all equals, and I think that is what compelled so many people to want to join the Empire (even defectors from the Kingdom!)
Discord was used by most groups in this video (that I know). It was a HUGE communication tool for members outside event hours. Our use of Discord was highlighted during the video to be knowledge because of its use during the Seabass incident.
We started small by looting etc and eventually merged with the guys at Rosewood Fire. There we met one of our former enemies from LVSF, Blixia, but we decided to put that behind us due to being outside this event.
We made a peace treaty (through Discord) between the Empire and the Kingdom during the fight on cannibals. We even started a coalition chat in our Discord to fight against the cannibals (although we did not do much, since we were so far). When we ran into The Kingdom for the first time, it was actually just us driving around and happening to run into them. We tried to tell them about our treaty but they shot at us.
When we went to Doe Valley to try to fight the Kingdom, it was only because they literally stole and ransacked the base from New Ekron.
Then, later, Seabass attacked and killed one of our own at our own base. Not shown in the video, but this was not the first time he had been at our base. The previous day he had actually been caught aiming his gun at our members and refusing to talk while scouting at our base. This was before we knew of any declaration of war against us. We were just trying to protect our own. So, we merged with The Riverside Alliance, and eventually, New Ekron. We eventually hunted down Seabass through the use of our informant to kill him for what he did to ProGamerGuy at our base.
During the Battle at Riverside, we were planning the entire time to kill the Kingdom members hiding out there. From our limited knowledge, the Kingdom tried to kill us every time we saw them, so we wanted to dwindle their numbers.
Before the call with Brother, we actually wanted peace with the Kingdom because we were genuinely worried we would lose more of our members, but, after what Brother said during the call and when we hung up, we knew he would want war. This is when the Kingdom really started to fall apart. The peace convoy was sent to our base, and we made peace. However, the Empire did not want to be a part of EDEN.
We knew most of these members were still loyal to Brother, which was not shown in the video. During some of the final moments of the event, our informant, Rokas, was actually poisoned by someone and died.
So, Arch-Duke, Snizzle, and myself made a pact to not join Eden, as the original plan for EDEN was to leave the county across the LV bridge. All of our members except one also had the same sentiment. So, I took a gold ring off each of my fingers and told them to bring the Empire to new lands.
To quote Motion when he left for EDEN,
"You guys are the heart of the Empire, don't ever loose that heart, please."
We then went to hunt down Brother and the person who poisoned Rokas in LV. One of our own died, and we decided to bail due to the increased amount of zombies there. So in the end, the original 3 members of the Empire were the only one surviving and some of (if not the only) people who stayed behind and did not cross the bridge.
Noble Deaths:
Fishdoor22 - Died a noble death during the Battle of Riverside
Progamerguy - Killed by Seabass at our base
Trashman - Unfortunately died during crossfire fighting zombies
Ryu - Killed by the undead after our successful extraction of The Kingdoms guns
SSilly - Died to infection
MrKiano - "died the way he lived, with a fiery passion for religon"
Weapons - Died to zombies in LV
Saint Doogal - "died whilst AFK, still one of the people of all time"
Shout out to everyone that made this event truly unforgettable. I had an amazing time playing with all of you, and I hope we can return soon. Maybe I'll put together a video for our perspective of this event, as there were a lot of fun moments that wouldn't really of made sense to be put in this video.
Gloria ad Imperium!
I definitely did not include everything. but just some of the stuff I can remember from the top of my head.
Oh, shit, that's a lot of stuff that wasn't shown in the video. Can't believe The Empire returned to being the same 3 guys it started with
Thanks for the info! Glad Rokas got the Rat's death he deserved, poisoned :D
DAMN, someone killed rokas😢😢
Having an informant is fair game, but directly sharing screenshots seems a bit close to wall hack for an RP environment
Respect the fallen, Newfort fought so everyone could live.
I BROUGHT YOU ALL TO YOUR FINAL RESTING PLACE, NEWFORT WILL LIVE ON UNTIL OUR GOAL IS COMPLETED.

Thank you for giving us rest Green o7
I appreciate the grave stone despite not recovering my corpse
Newfort took care of the largest threat on the server and paid the price in blood many times over. It was sad to see the group get decimated in the process of taking down the cult.
Newforts sacrifice was sad but pretty badass. Even though CULT killed most of you, I don't think they expected you guys to fight tooth and nail to the death which ultimately destroyed their faction and took out a huge threat to the end goal of civilization on the server. The whole Newfort arc was my favourite part of this video, such a bittersweet ending.
@@WrestleGermainia same here. Almost cried when the last two survivors buried their friends and tried to rebuild the base, even knowing it was for them only and fallen people. Such a great guys.

Better than Netflix, I havent been so glued to watching something for a long while. Also kind of love the most hardass people were named things like Seabass and Struudel. It's nice to see some of the players in the comments being good natured about it too.
The Kingdom being full of jumpy kids is some real Lord of the Flies level of craziness.
Strudel death being the leader killing member then dying on the train tracks was lowkey deep. The leader lives to watch it all fall and then gets revenge and completes the task to die and meet his men
Dude, this is such an epic but so very human story. It would make an awesome TV series.
That was a better story than the entirety of The Walking Dead.
😂 you ain't kidding
I agree xD
hell no 💀
The show, yes, the Comic, no
Pfffft, mans aint read shit obviously
Definite favorites were NewFort, NOI/EDEN, and Cult. NewFort were the ragtag group of inexperienced but good-willed people just trying to survive, NOI was the great unifier against The Kingdom who had fallen from grace, and Cult were a small, ruthless gang of violent criminals looking to eradicate the others. Its fun to see how a hard-headed leader like Brother was good in the early game as a constant force pushing his people to build themselves up, but was bad in the late game as he fanned the flames of paranoia and made The Kingdom fall from under him
This is like straight up from walking dead where rick unified communties against negan😂
Brother was a great leader but even a great leader can't control someone like seabass who only knows murder
@jaredjosephsongheng372 yeah, but he didn't exactly help the situation by disregarding the concerns of the other clans and being non-apologetic/apathetic about seabass' behavior lol

Holy shit this is one of the best videos I've ever watched. Genuinely feels like a fully fledged zombie drama show. The tension, characters and music. The lore and ending of brother and his duo is so cool, he spent the rest of his days singing and exploring. Newforts rise, fall and eventually peaceful ending was perfect. The defecting and betrayal was perfect, thank you for making this video I love it so much dude.
For a very aggressive group, I was sad about CULT destroying NewFort but man, Struudel going 1 v 30+, can't help but cheer for him lol. The fact that he got a kill was amusing. That didn't felt like a win for Kingdom at all. 😂 Also, Kingdom felt more like a CULT than CULT haha!
whats funny is, harvest was doing an interview with me (ended up not in the video) a bit outside the base when Struudel was shooting that guy in our base. if I didn't been at the interview, I very well could have been standing around there and got shot lol.

it's kinda tragic how that war between the empire and the kingdom almost started by mistake basically, just because new ekron didnt manage to tell the empire they moved. all that bloodshed over a simple miscommunication
very nice that they were able to come together and settle their differences for the betterment of humanity

I can only imagine how miscommunication could have most likely been a huge reason for war historically.
