Hey guys! Our post-apoc series is back and today we're doing a small scenario with the focus on The Trade Union. I plan on stepping it up in the next episode, making the wasteland bloodier and more violent than before. Pistols and rifles will be swapped for machine guns and vehicles of war. Small skirmishes between wastelanders and bandits will soon turn to bloody battles between factions for the domination of the wasteland. A war is brewing.
+DiplexHeated hey, could somebody tell me were to get a working version of red rising? and how to get the same type of editor as DiplexHeated? wenn i try to use the editor i get the normal map editor :/
Loved the video but for some reason it was only in 360 quality only. Nvm its fixed The New Novgorod Republic is my Favourite faction because of how strong but peaceful they are with The New Order as a close second with the Trade Union cause me personally would like to be a part of a discipline and trained Army like faction which would support me when in battle rather then a faction that would get me rich and the best gear but would not care about my life but rather the cargo I get. (probably) The Followers of Yermak is the last cause, well they are insane and would probably kill me rather then take me in and at this rate they would probably die out
Almost feel sad for the dude at 5:52... went in all stealthy and professional and shit, started shooting an RPK with the legendary star wars stormtrooper aim, and then got rekt by a dude casually shooting a pistol...
7:30 This gave me an idea. How about those possible war vets or deserters could be a patrol belonging to the secret remnants of the Russian government (kind of like the Enclave from Fallout 2/3) and they were sent to investigate The Wasteland. Then they came across that region and decided to stick around to report more on the area.
I think pretty interesting plot mission would be the followers of yrmak raiding a Trade Union outpost as they are giving out supplies to civilians and scavengers in the region. Officially putting the factions on the brink of a major conflict
+GASMASKGAMING _ Faction Idea- Veriveli = A private army made up of mercenaries led by Erik Grekov, a wealthy business man who made his money by selling weapons to countries during the world war. Now using his own means he intends on taking eastern europe for his own under the rule of King Grekov
An underground bunker is where he would have kept his weaponry and men, He was supplying countries with weapons so countries had no intention on fighting him
+Shaq Taylor Sounds a little redundant to me to be honest. Aftermath- "the consequences or aftereffects of a significant unpleasant event." Repercussion- "an unintended consequence occurring some time after an event or action, especially an unwelcome one."
+Jmat4102 since the whole thing is say after the nuclear war I thought "Aftermath" might be a name for the series because they are roaming the wastelands after a time of great peril!, but I added "Repercussions" because the people are adjusting to this new change and what not, if you get what I mean. "Aftermath:Repercussions".
@DiplexHeated you should make a trench like map that's spread through a heavy radiation zone in old Russia. Every ones got gas masks and the new order and the Urmac boys can be fighting over it. Because theirs a secret bunker under the area full of tanks, apcs, and other old world luxuries.
I'm so glad you didn't kill off the 2 scavengers at the end. I thought they deserved a good ending, not death, and what better than joining the Trade Union? Nice series.
You keep getting better and better. I started watching your star wars videos then started watching the rest and every time I am beyond impressed. You are a great youtuber
Diplex this is just a suggestion for the series. I think what would be a good idea is that one of the unknown soldier in this video actually survived and tries to make his way back to a secret military base which is still under the command of the russian goverment from their bunker in St Petersburg. But on the way back he's followed by a few scavengers who are actually trade union agents but follow him due to his military grade equipment to see if he got it by luck or is part of a faction that is located in a military base where the trade union could profit by taking it over and selling it to other factions. This is just my suggestion i bet there are other better ones but if u could just give a thought it be nice. Btw what happens to that soldiers way back is up to you. He could have led the trade union agent to a secret military outpost or he joins them and abandons the military. There's so many things u could do with him or her. Have a nice day
I wish there was a way to set a soldier's skill level. I hate how the Trade Union guys go up against raiders and lose half of their squad, I feel like they would perform better than that.
You can in the editor. I have done it before I just don't remember the exact keys. If your willing to wait a day or so I can tell you which keys you need
Lone Wolf Gaming Oh really? I don't have the game so you don't need to go through all the trouble to figure it out, thanks though. I thought if there was a way to do it then Diplex would know. I guess I was wrong :\
You know what would be cool? If there was a bandit leader that sort of took control of the bandits and led a massive faction of bandits through the wastes. Perhaps the leader could be the survivor from the Wasteland Stories episode?
Hey, Diplez, I know you want to go on a personal level with the factions to make it feel more real, more thought out. So why don't you take user submitted stories for characters and incorporate them into your videos? It'd add that sense of personality to the series, and you'd likely get more comments/views
Bloody great series, kind of reminds me of stalker... Always wanted a wasteland series like this. I'd rather wait for a few days for a very well set up video than a random battle :p keep up the good work
This is great man! Keep up the good work; Here's a suggestion for the future ( i'm sure you are going to run out of maps at some point) if you just reuse the map from last ep would make sense bc the order took it with their death squad and have settled it (This is at the point where the town has walls and defences so it might take some time to make but I think it would be awesome) and then the cultist try to burn it to the ground... Anyways! Keep up the amazing work!
Diplex once you start the big battles between the factions you should make city's worth something. example: trade union wins battle over a city and get an extra 30 or 40 people in the next battle, followers of yermqk capture airport and many are able to salvage a prewar helicopter. you could also have local resistance that oppose all factions and just want to live in peace. example: new order and trade Union fight over city but the city has their own militia that fight both of them because they don't want to join either of them making a 3 way fight.
I hope to see more narrative on characters, like leaders of the factions and whoever is leading their side in the fights themselves. Also any survivors, like that bandit leader. And also, people who are shot down ingame could still "survive" in the narrative, maybe be taken as captives.
Transision 67 Oh? I had no idea. :/ Anyway, I'm not saying he should go through all 1k, but at east start a playlist with this series; It'll be easier for new viewers and attract more people to the channel. c:
When i try to download the Newest version of the mod , it say's when i try to Activate ( This mod Requires different version of the game ) What i should do ? :)
+LadaBoxCZ Fox go into the mod file. there should be a mod.info text file. click on it and it would say min version 3.02 (or any version) and a max version. you need to change the versions it says in the text file to the version you currently have for MOWAS2
Diplex quick question, will you play mount blade 2 bannerlord? I remember your old videos of mount blade warband they were fun to watch,also good video :)
id say the best story for the four guys would be that the government deems it safe for its forces and enacts martial law on any civilians outside of their cities whom werent allowed into bunkers
hey diplex can you sometimes feature the people who survive these fights in later vids? id love to see some of the same survivors kinda grow and have a story, flesh out this universe
I'm with the idea on Pre-Apocalypse Russian Governmental Forces, If from the video is how they act towards everyone, they seem like the Enclave a lot e.e. Also will this series just be taking place in Russia, or all over the world? Oh Yes, this is an edit, an idea just popped into my head. So with the four factions, I think maybe there should be some "Legitimizing Claims", Say for example if the New Order gained control of Moscow or St. Petersburg, they can legitimately claim they are going to establish a new Russian Government, and all factions must abide by their laws or be crushed (Their Perspective.) On the other side, the Novgorod Republic, If the NR gained control of Novgorod/Moscow/St.Petersburg, they could also legitimately claim they're the new Russian Government, and people have a choice to join or not.
You should add a new faction called the New Scandinavia Commonwealth (this faction is very financially strong just there stretched thin between their city's and don't have tons of soldiers.) this is there lore during world war three Sweden, Norway, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania all agreed to form one country, so they could fend off any other country that would other wise take there land. These country's also did this so that they would be a lot more harder for Russia to take land from a unified Scandinavia. But after world war 3 there not in to bad of shape because not to many of the Scandinavian city's were hit because of Scandinavia low pupation. Now there expanding into old Russian land so they can connect Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania to the rest of the New Scandinavia Commonwealth and there thinking why don't we expand into Novgorod it can't be that hard. I Hope we could add this faction please like if you like this idea. 🇸🇪
@DiplexHeated can you please put this in their own playlist any by chance a numbering them from the first episode to the last i just started watching and i have no idea which one is first or last im very lost :( XD
You should tie this into the Renegade States in the U.S., Like the U.S. was also nuked, but since it was so wide, places were untouched, so States formed into real countries while the remaining U.S. forces remain and try to reclaim the countries and continue America's Legacy
You should do a battle where two factions are fighting and then a tank shows up from another faction and the two factions have to try and destroy the tank while fighting each other
@Diplexheated Can I ask you a question? im not going to ask just yet, only because i dont know if youre checking these comments still! thanks, and your vids are badass!
You should make a trade union convoy defend against an ambush from bandits but a large group of cultist unknowingly stumble into said battle. Just an idea
perhaps the soldiers were an advanced scouting unit for the emerging remits of the old government which maybe is now more of a dictatorship controlled by an old general. just a thought
Hey guys! Our post-apoc series is back and today we're doing a small scenario with the focus on The Trade Union.

+DiplexHeated This is so cool, I thought it was gonna be like FALLOUT but it's become it's own thing. You should come up with a name for this series.
+DiplexHeated hey, could somebody tell me were to get a working version of red rising? and how to get the same type of editor as DiplexHeated? wenn i try to use the editor i get the normal map editor :/
Why don't you start another ww3 series with the red riding mod it would be awesome.
You Should Name The Series- "Aftermath: Repercussions:
Loved the video but for some reason it was only in 360 quality only. Nvm its fixed
The New Novgorod Republic is my Favourite faction because of how strong but peaceful they are with The New Order as a close second with the Trade Union cause me personally would like to be a part of a discipline and trained Army like faction which would support me when in battle rather then a faction that would get me rich and the best gear but would not care about my life but rather the cargo I get.

Hahah, indeed. Bad day.
Rest in pepperoni......
+DiplexHeated how does fiat currency have value in a nationless society
And he chose so bad tactics - to turn his back to enemies after few shots
7:30 This gave me an idea. How about those possible war vets or deserters could be a patrol belonging to the secret remnants of the Russian government (kind of like the Enclave from Fallout 2/3) and they were sent to investigate The Wasteland. Then they came across that region and decided to stick around to report more on the area.
+Mechanical Beast You can see the future.
I think pretty interesting plot mission would be the followers of yrmak raiding a Trade Union outpost as they are giving out supplies to civilians and scavengers in the region. Officially putting the factions on the brink of a major conflict
+GASMASKGAMING _ Faction Idea- Veriveli = A private army made up of mercenaries led by Erik Grekov, a wealthy business man who made his money by selling weapons to countries during the world war. Now using his own means he intends on taking eastern europe for his own under the rule of King Grekov
+GASMASKGAMING _ One thing I do not get is how he would have survived the war with such a large amount of weaponry
An underground bunker is where he would have kept his weaponry and men, He was supplying countries with weapons so countries had no intention on fighting him
+GASMASKGAMING _ Yes this is so what I was thinking!!!!
+GASMASKGAMING _ But the war only lasted one or two days. How the heck did he make enough money in that amount of time.
You Should Name The Series- "Aftermath: Repercussions"
+Shaq Taylor, this would be a great name for the series, i like it. lol
+Shaq Taylor Sounds a little redundant to me to be honest.
Aftermath- "the consequences or aftereffects of a significant unpleasant event."
Repercussion- "an unintended consequence occurring some time after an event or action, especially an unwelcome one."
+Vic Vinegar Perhaps combine them? Aftermath and Repercussions: Tales from the Russian Wasteland.
+Jmat4102 since the whole thing is say after the nuclear war I thought "Aftermath" might be a name for the series because they are roaming the wastelands after a time of great peril!, but I added "Repercussions" because the people are adjusting to this new change and what not, if you get what I mean. "Aftermath:Repercussions".

Yeah cause tank and apcs are luxuries not military vehicle's that could boost there military superiority
I'm so glad you didn't kill off the 2 scavengers at the end. I thought they deserved a good ending, not death, and what better than joining the Trade Union? Nice series.
Big wars sound cool, but I also like the small skirmishes so don't leave them completely please
You keep getting better and better. I started watching your star wars videos then started watching the rest and every time I am beyond impressed. You are a great youtuber
I could see this being a movie/ tv series. You tell such an amazing story! I love this
I love this series and the commentary for it!
this is a really great series and i love the idea of the followers of yirmak wiping out an entire settlement!!
Diplex this is just a suggestion for the series. I think what would be a good idea is that one of the unknown soldier in this video actually survived and tries to make his way back to a secret military base which is still under the command of the russian goverment from their bunker in St Petersburg.

He could have led the trade union agent to a secret military outpost or he joins them and abandons the military. There's so many things u could do with him or her. Have a nice day
+affiq zulkifli I would also second that along with something like the raider surviving will go along to do something big
I wish there was a way to set a soldier's skill level. I hate how the Trade Union guys go up against raiders and lose half of their squad, I feel like they would perform better than that.
You can in the editor. I have done it before I just don't remember the exact keys. If your willing to wait a day or so I can tell you which keys you need
Lone Wolf Gaming Oh really? I don't have the game so you don't need to go through all the trouble to figure it out, thanks though. I thought if there was a way to do it then Diplex would know. I guess I was wrong :\
+Lone Wolf Gaming I know this was a while ago but can you tell me how you do that? Sorry for bothering.
1 word to discribe this episode and the future of this series : epic
love this series, hope it continuous for a long time
This is by far one of your best series along with modern mod
You know what would be cool? If there was a bandit leader that sort of took control of the bandits and led a massive faction of bandits through the wastes. Perhaps the leader could be the survivor from the Wasteland Stories episode?
Hey, Diplez, I know you want to go on a personal level with the factions to make it feel more real, more thought out. So why don't you take user submitted stories for characters and incorporate them into your videos? It'd add that sense of personality to the series, and you'd likely get more comments/views
Diplex*, sorry lad
Bloody great series, kind of reminds me of stalker... Always wanted a wasteland series like this. I'd rather wait for a few days for a very well set up video than a random battle :p keep up the good work
This is great man! Keep up the good work; Here's a suggestion for the future ( i'm sure you are going to run out of maps at some point) if you just reuse the map from last ep would make sense bc the order took it with their death squad and have settled it (This is at the point where the town has walls and defences so it might take some time to make but I think it would be awesome) and then the cultist try to burn it to the ground... Anyways! Keep up the amazing work!
smaller battles are more interesting than two big blobs running at each other in a field.
Really enjoying this series, loved the scavenger and Trade Union join up/interaction!
Making friends in the wastelands ! Haha
"Unfortunately the bullet does not discriminate, it kills" Diplex ~The poet.
I love how one of this guy where like "screw bridge! I'm going abroad!"
Absolutely LOVE this series
Diplex once you start the big battles between the factions you should make city's worth something. example: trade union wins battle over a city and get an extra 30 or 40 people in the next battle, followers of yermqk capture airport and many are able to salvage a prewar helicopter. you could also have local resistance that oppose all factions and just want to live in peace. example: new order and trade Union fight over city but the city has their own militia that fight both of them because they don't want to join either of them making a 3 way fight.
love this series
This is my fav series of yours
Please keep this series going, thanks!
I loved the ending! Great story telling!
Wow, this game gives you a LOT of freedom when it comes to the editor.
reminds me of when i was a kid and used to play with plastic soldiers...
I hope to see more narrative on characters, like leaders of the factions and whoever is leading their side in the fights themselves. Also any survivors, like that bandit leader. And also, people who are shot down ingame could still "survive" in the narrative, maybe be taken as captives.
Dammit Diplex, I really think you should organize this (and other series) in a playlist. This has a lot of good stuff going for it!
he had playlists before but his channel got taken down by some fuckbois and It would take a very long time to organise 1000 or so videos
Transision 67
Oh? I had no idea. :/ Anyway, I'm not saying he should go through all 1k, but at east start a playlist with this series; It'll be easier for new viewers and attract more people to the channel. c:
+Transision 67 Wow, when did his channel get taken down and why?
Edgy Bloke it got taken down by some copyright assholes who were miss using the ability , it happened a few months ago
I love this series need to be more!
PLS NEVER STOP THIS SIERIES.
merry christmas diplex and i memorized the things that you say in the entrance and happy new year
LOL WHAT I didn't even know you were swedish your accent is SO GOOD.
Fantastic series sir! Love the story.
you're my favorite youtuber keep up the good work
Bro i think i will die within minuets in that waste land
Me too
Me three unless I'm in a faction
Really cool Diplex. I hope it turns out to be the remnants of Old Russia :D
When i try to download the Newest version of the mod , it say's when i try to Activate ( This mod Requires different version of the game ) What i should do ? :)
+LadaBoxCZ Fox go into the mod file. there should be a mod.info text file. click on it and it would say min version 3.02 (or any version) and a max version. you need to change the versions it says in the text file to the version you currently have for MOWAS2
+LadaBoxCZ Fox what is link to mod i cant find it
is this assault squad 1 or 2?
I would love a series similar to this with Totaler Krieg during WWII or something like that.
Now that I think about it, I like both the Novgorod Republic and the Trade Union
I think those four lone soldiers in the vid should be the first sign of the old republic.
GLORY TO THE NEW ORDER
Great scenario great faction and hopefully different faction comes in to continue the series
Diplex quick question, will you play mount blade 2 bannerlord? I remember your old videos of mount blade warband they were fun to watch,also good video :)
LOVE THIS SERIES
id say the best story for the four guys would be that the government deems it safe for its forces and enacts martial law on any civilians outside of their cities whom werent allowed into bunkers
If you could maybe make some larger fights in this series you've created that would be awesome!
I really think those two scavengers with the battle skills should be like ex-Spetnaz or ex-KGB or something.
That was cool, but I'll really enjoy Trade Union and EBR guy encounter :D Even if that's a death sentence for one of them.
at the end of this series, u should have the 4 factions to fight in a military base to fight off and whoever
wins escapes in a working Helicopter
Brilliant! PLEASE I need more fast! xD
Seems to me that those four guys were indeed a patrol from the old government! Maybe that's what unites some of the factions....
So much of loot untouched! They live pretty richly out there
+DiplexHeated I could see the New Novgorod Republic go on a peace keeping/humanitarian aid mission
+DiplexHeated can you do a post apocalyptic series in the US? or maybe in Western Europe?
You should play as one guy and give him more health so he Can survive a bit
Great serious i love you diplex
hey diplex can you sometimes feature the people who survive these fights in later vids? id love to see some of the same survivors kinda grow and have a story, flesh out this universe
I want to see those two specific scavenger models in a later Trade Union fight.
love the videos man keep it up :)
Think we need a name for this universe? Also loving it wanna see so much more of this :D
Taking a suggestion from another comment, I think it should be Aftermath:Novgorod or something of the sort.
I'm with the idea on Pre-Apocalypse Russian Governmental Forces, If from the video is how they act towards everyone, they seem like the Enclave a lot e.e.
Also will this series just be taking place in Russia, or all over the world?
Oh Yes, this is an edit, an idea just popped into my head. So with the four factions, I think maybe there should be some "Legitimizing Claims", Say for example if the New Order gained control of Moscow or St. Petersburg, they can legitimately claim they are going to establish a new Russian Government, and all factions must abide by their laws or be crushed (Their Perspective.) On the other side, the Novgorod Republic, If the NR gained control of Novgorod/Moscow/St.Petersburg, they could also legitimately claim they're the new Russian Government, and people have a choice to join or not.
hey diplex way of topic but is there going to be more Totaled krieg video's
Capitalism: Apocalypse Edition (50% MORE GUNS)
You should make a scenario where the old gov comes out of a bunker to restore order and all the new factions have to come together to fight them off
You should add a new faction called the New Scandinavia Commonwealth (this faction is very financially strong just there stretched thin between their city's and don't have tons of soldiers.) this is there lore during world war three Sweden, Norway, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania all agreed to form one country, so they could fend off any other country that would other wise take there land.

Now there expanding into old Russian land so they can connect Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania to the rest of the New Scandinavia Commonwealth and there thinking why don't we expand into Novgorod it can't be that hard. I Hope we could add this faction please like if you like this idea.
🇸🇪
I would like to see New Order in next episode.
sorry for my English.
This series is sooo Fucking awesome!!!
@DiplexHeated can you please put this in their own playlist any by chance a numbering them from the first episode to the last i just started watching and i have no idea which one is first or last im very lost :( XD
Holy shit he used that one guys suggestion about the government being underground
that group of 4 in uniform should be another faction that moved in
You should tie this into the Renegade States in the U.S., Like the U.S. was also nuked, but since it was so wide, places were untouched, so States formed into real countries while the remaining U.S. forces remain and try to reclaim the countries and continue America's Legacy
Novgorod is in Russia and a nuked America would never have a faction organised enough to go abroad to Russia to "conquer" it by the next few decades
No, in the U.S.
nah
+Ninjaslam O'Cinneide fuck the US they're overated
+Ninjaslam O'Cinneide fuck the US they're overated
Diplex can you do more story line stuff like you did with the Modern Mod??
7:40 At first I thought that was the cult.
You should do a battle where two factions are fighting and then a tank shows up from another faction and the two factions have to try and destroy the tank while fighting each other
i love these vids
when you do the raider faction they should assult a makeshift hospital or a mercenary camp
@Diplexheated Can I ask you a question? im not going to ask just yet, only because i dont know if youre checking these comments still! thanks, and your vids are badass!
You should make a trade union convoy defend against an ambush from bandits but a large group of cultist unknowingly stumble into said battle. Just an idea
You should shorten the new Novgorod republic to "the NNR" i personally think that sounds really good
can we have a sort of waterworld type naval battle?
Diplex you should do interactions between the Ai that doesn't involve fighting
I love your videos could you do a video on how to download the apps you use for the videos thanks!!
how about cultist initiates trying to became full member it would be good becasu we would get more information about them
perhaps the soldiers were an advanced scouting unit for the emerging remits of the old government which maybe is now more of a dictatorship controlled by an old general. just a thought
Get that van oh that car with a 50 cal oh yea we don’t care bout that
Maybe those 4 man where a military faction like a spetsnaz group
the guy with the rpk relly like star wars
diplex can at the end of the title can u put four factions or in the description i dont know what is just a video or the four factions series
@DiplexHeated when are u going to stream again?
Cool I love these videos
You should make another video about the two surviving scavenger. Say like they join the trade union
Where do you get these reskins. I wann make a mini series on this. And also where do you get the vehicles in the Editor, cant find em
They are in the Red Rising Mod
what mods? and i would love if you posted these scenarios on the steam workshop
