Yes please do it again, this video was very entertaining and you showed some serious eu4 skills dude. Adding another wheel for government type would be awesome! Keep up the great work Laith!
Imagine somone creating random ones and then giving 5-6 to each player. Totally random ones like this was, and all secretive and not allowed to be known by others. Winning or losing would not care about relative player power, but how close to being finished with all your Special missions. So the whole game would be trying to do your own while trying to stop the other players from winning first (and thus provoking player conflict). I could imagine, say, a Mainz player getting: Own all Mediteranean Islands; Have Kazakh as your third largest culture; Personally own 3 max level New World monuments (cannot be held indirectly by colonial colonies); Have the Grenadan Area fully cored, with >~35 dev each province; Have a manpower pool of >1,000,000 men. I'm just imagining all the crazy non-standard rushing.
DO MORE!!! It was much funnier and engaging than usual even, mostly because by forcing incredibly weird combinations as goals sets you up for all sorts of dangers. Which is fun to watch you navigate. For us at least. It's refreshing to see serious trouble in a consistant manor, when normally theres the pretty normal grow and snowball in a safe-ish way waiting until you get to the right strength for threats. Apart from starting as a weak nation right next to the ottomans, stuff like needing to get to Europe ASAP with the Ottomans in your way were just the speed bumps we needed to see, as well as your skill in overcoming them.
Am at 13.5 minutes and you just (Georgia) got stomped by the Ottomans. I cannot see how this is going to work out. Feel your pain though and appreciate that you are still swinging. Hope you surprise us because if you do then maybe you are the best EU4 player. ;-)
21:39 majority of anatolia is also in europe. I believe only the state of kurdistan counts as being in asia. so the northern parts of AQ you own here such as erzurum are in fact within europe.
Sweet baby jaysus... you did it. I feel exhausted and thus you MUST need a long sleep! Although it was apinful it was interesting so another few like this would be cool. That is, if you can stomach it again!
6:15 the shortest alliance in the history of the world.. what you did there is like the equivalent of Stallone getting out a ring to propose to that woman he drops in Cliffhanger, while she's falling
Great series idea, however culture is, as demonstrated here, more about saving admin points. Perhaps consider owning a random state or a couple of random provinces instead? It's equivalent minus saving admin and may allow for more craziness
Make sure to give yourself a reroll on the nations if it would just be insane. Like a native american tribe with this challenge would have been a nightmare.
For a fourth challenge, spin a wheel to see how you should play it like Tall, Regional Power, Own culture group, Wide, Colonial, Military power, economic power, trade power, etc.
"Random Fun Times" is my weekly Sunday EU4 save game... No goal, just playing a random nation at speed 5 and seeing where things end up by dinner time. It's 50/50 I lose before dinner.
I once did what I called a "real orange" campaign. Objective: form Netherlands as the first Random country clicked who's color is also orange. Ended up with Morocco... took a couple of hours but it worked!
Create a custom jewish nation in America and retake Jerusalem. Maybe you can start in Utah and make the journey back. You could use the High American tech group and the lost hebrew culture. Would be epic. You could create a custom adversary in America if the early game would be too easy.
Whenever I try to play countries like Georgia or Karaman (really any country that starts near the Ottomans) I get way more bad events and RNG than as other countries. I don't know if it's just confirmation bias or if something is actually up. All I know is that the Caucasus region is miserable to play in.
im noob but id assume its best to change religion first, then form the nation, then change culture after? (unless to form croatia you need to be catholic??)
So should I do it again? Maybe add in a government type on another wheel for maximum suffering? 👀
This was hectic, but it really showed off your skill and knowledge in the game. Well done you.
Yes please
Yes please do it again, this video was very entertaining and you showed some serious eu4 skills dude. Adding another wheel for government type would be awesome! Keep up the great work Laith!
Yes.
really creative, awesome video
Okay but can we get a multiplayer version of this? Its all a race to finish your own hidden objectives
Damn thats genius
Imagine an entire discord server doing that too.
YES PLEASE

Oh fuck yeah
This is probably one of the coolest EU4 ideas I've seen. TY for your great content.
Just imagine the same challenge, but you got some australian tribe instead of imereti
it's easier that way lol
@@meemstar2333 easier but also like an extra 4 hours of gameplay at least
The new channel name is good👍🏻
As an Imeretian guy...I need to bleech my eyes out
As a first generation United Statesian whose parents were born in Croatia ... save some bleach for me!
serg..?
@@lurji LEAVE ME ALONE
@@Ampula88 i did until i found u on this random video my jigga
@@lurji shut up orangutang
A GAME THEORY REFERENCE IN MY EU4 VUDEO?!? OMFG!!!
This is actually a really cool unique concept for a video
That was amazing and I enjoyed every minute of it
Imagine if you got Norse Byzantine Ilkhanate starting as Manipur
I can’t wait for next episode where you have to form Tunis as Norse Viti, great video
Good job on completing this challange, keep up the good work, love from Croatia
Yeah, that was some good content. Althoug I hope for laith's sanity that if he does another the game as well as RNGsus treat him better.

Amazing, definitely want to see more of this special brand of suffering in the future!
I really loved this video! Not a stale moment, hoping to see more of this challenge in the near future
This was actually great. Love seeing some challenge videos no one has done before.
This was great. Absolutely lovely. Please do more of this series xD
Laith has officially created the most difficult EU4 challenge that I know of. Why?
THE VIEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of my favorite video ideas you’ve done. So great!!
Iranian theory about Croatian origin confirmed, to some degree at least.
This is my kind of game! Such an absurd country history creation! Please do more of these.
what a rollercoaster from start to finish, loved it
Ok this is like the most INSANE challenge ever! 😱
This was a cool (And absolutely painful) challenge. I also love the idea of the comment saying multiplayer. That sounds like glorious chaos.
This was an amazing idea ngl, I might try it myself
Yeah, the 'Dance Around the Ottomans' challenge. Good stuff.
Am at 13.5 minutes and you just (Georgia) got stomped by the Ottomans. I cannot see how this is going to work out. Feel your pain though and appreciate that you are still swinging. Hope you surprise us because if you do then maybe you are the best EU4 player. ;-)
There's merit to accepting the suffering and playing through it...
@@TheSocialStreamers Buddhism or masochism. Haha
Laith, I am genuinely impressed by your success here, congratulations.
This was a fantastic challenge, I enjoyed the video thoroughly! I would love to see more
If you do this again. you should know that you can always become a horde by forming khoshouud through the tibet mission tree.
Easily the most entertaining EU4 vid I've ever seen.
*slow aplause* I did not expect you to succeed there. Good job boyo
Your misery aside, this was impressive. You've done alot of the standard game stuff so you kind of have to ride this suffering train
21:39 majority of anatolia is also in europe. I believe only the state of kurdistan counts as being in asia. so the northern parts of AQ you own here such as erzurum are in fact within europe.
you gotta get a big red button that says "pain" in red hawks voice when you press it
Sweet baby jaysus... you did it. I feel exhausted and thus you MUST need a long sleep!
Although it was apinful it was interesting so another few like this would be cool. That is, if you can stomach it again!
Pls do more of this. It was great fun to watch :)
Pretty lucky getting Imereti imo. In the middle of where you can find Shia, Tatar and Croatia.
Laith died at PDX con and this is his hell
6:15 the shortest alliance in the history of the world.. what you did there is like the equivalent of Stallone getting out a ring to propose to that woman he drops in Cliffhanger, while she's falling
Little does Laith know that Galicia Volhynia can turn into Rome if you're good enough
fantastic video, my favourite one out of the recent
Can’t even remember subbing but I fell asleep and now I am here
Great series idea, however culture is, as demonstrated here, more about saving admin points. Perhaps consider owning a random state or a couple of random provinces instead? It's equivalent minus saving admin and may allow for more craziness
This is a great format ☺️
Super fun video, would love to see more!
Definitely more videos like this please
As the Red Hawk would say: "Pain."
I’m a simple man, I see “so much suffering,” I click
I would love to see zlewwik save your ruined campaign
and I would love another episode :)
Great idea, could easily see you doing it again
Imereti x Croatia x Qara Qoyunlu x Oirat. The collaboration you never knew you needed
i would love to see more of this
Make sure to give yourself a reroll on the nations if it would just be insane. Like a native american tribe with this challenge would have been a nightmare.
more of this challenge would be great :D
For a fourth challenge, spin a wheel to see how you should play it like Tall, Regional Power, Own culture group, Wide, Colonial, Military power, economic power, trade power, etc.
You have never seen Laith play tall if you think that's a good idea.
THAT WAS AMAZING GOOD JOB
Is it a good or bad that laith ends up getting the challenges that cause a lot of suffering
he could have got Hawaï or tonga
if they didnt cause suffering they probably wouldnt be a video tbh...
I will spin the wheel for my next campaign. Looks like fun.
This seems like a nightmare. Love watching you do it but I'll probably never try it.
Blessed timeline
More of these. this is great
This sounds like it’s impossible 😂👀
I mean it might just take a lot of time like 150 to 200 years at least imo
Please do this again
THE NAMES BEEN CHANGED?!?!?
I love laitj
We need more!
I started an important global meeting today with the words - Right lads! .... in a laith way... one random dude went weyyyy xD
This was fun to watch
"Random Fun Times" is my weekly Sunday EU4 save game... No goal, just playing a random nation at speed 5 and seeing where things end up by dinner time. It's 50/50 I lose before dinner.
New channel name is in effect, will you be updating the channel banner to have the new social streamers?
I'm making changes gradually, the banner is the next thing to change.
I once did what I called a "real orange" campaign. Objective: form Netherlands as the first Random country clicked who's color is also orange. Ended up with Morocco... took a couple of hours but it worked!
Also less then 100 years, could have become great power. Top G
DO MORE OF THIS
Everyone: "Ew, Paradox border goreeee"
Laith, with the true mental gore challenge:
Suffering equals great content 😆
I’d love it if you did more if this
Bankrupting without spending all those points, my heart cant take it..
Beauty, love it.
Next do Dutch Jewish Ilkhanate from Bhutua
I enjoyed your pain very much.... I don't know what that says about me though
Create a custom jewish nation in America and retake Jerusalem. Maybe you can start in Utah and make the journey back.
You could use the High American tech group and the lost hebrew culture. Would be epic. You could create a custom adversary in America if the early game would be too easy.
Love this challenge.
That was great!
Do this in CK3 next!
YES
@@TheSocialStreamers there are plenty of mods that do this to the extreme as well I think it’s called random world or something
Jesus, that was brutal
Whenever I try to play countries like Georgia or Karaman (really any country that starts near the Ottomans) I get way more bad events and RNG than as other countries. I don't know if it's just confirmation bias or if something is actually up. All I know is that the Caucasus region is miserable to play in.
I’ve never seen anyone play as Georgia
I love aristocratic ideas.
So in the binding of Isaac people go on win streaks what if for a new series you random a nation and have till 1500 to become a great power?
Make this a series
Monkey sees laith suffer, monkey presses like
im noob but id assume its best to change religion first, then form the nation, then change culture after? (unless to form croatia you need to be catholic??)
Hmm yes lore momentum of eu4 mods be like:
Cool idea, hope you do more! How'd you manage to declare on Dalmatia without having to fight the HRE emperor though?
Very great
Only commenting to help the video
Very good
Continue the campaign from this just roll for new goals.
That was fun
I once formed a Jewish Dutch Chile
That was really fun
It's more arbitrary, so you have to think somewhat differently from usual
I wonder what would you do, if random nation to start as was some native tribe in Oceania or Amerikas.
