And if you ever wondered what happens when you kill every single noble of a kingdom: The entire lands of that kingdom gets gifted to one random faction. It can be your kingdom, it can be a kingdom you are in war with, it can be the bloody rebels of Epicrotea with their 2 nobles who are now suddenly in posession of 5 cities, 4 castles and have no men whatsoever to defend them. The only problem is that with basically no lords left on the map bandits start running rampage and everything is full of them whereever you go...

A small thing with sieges, you can actually have trebuchets fall back after you build them, causing them to disappear and go into a storage. They’ll take 1 or 2 hits, but you can do this for every trebuchet. After the last one is complete you can put them all on the field at once, and easily knock down walls and defenses

This is absolutely amazing. It's only day 83 ingame and I've already wrecked Vlandia's economy and am halfway done wrecking Battania. Poor old King Derthert literally had 0 denars to trade and all the Vlandian lords are running around with squads of 10-20 men. They raised an "Army" but could only field 64 men hahaha. My plan is to cycle through the nations one by one until all are in ruin and I have literally all the money in Calradia. EDIT: I repeated the process with Battania, Sturgia and the Western Empire. All 3 nations were absolutely wrecked and losing territory like crazy. Had to stop when they patched the game.

Tip: when doing siege. As soon as a machine is completed put it into reserve. Redeploy them when you have enough in reserve. That way they aren't constantly outnumbered as you build them.

Spiff, I know the odds of you seeing this is very low but I wanted to tell you this anyway. I've been struggling with horrendous ptsd, depression and anxiety since I was jumped by three inmates at my max security prison I'm a sergeant at. I had 6 teeth broken or knocked out entirely, 3 discs in my back ruptured, my L5 vertebra was shifted 12 millimeters during the fracas and I was kicked in the head hard enough that I've only got 50% hearing in my left ear and the doctors suspect I also suffered brain damage. I managed to fight my way back to my feet and get out of the building. Your content along with a couple of other youtubers has helped me during my darkest times. The damage to my back has rendered me unable to workout or do any of my usual stress relief methods. I'm being literal when I say their have been times when your absolutely hilarious content, mainly your civ 6 and total war videos, have kept me from putting Smith and wessons finest to my head and stopping my pain forever. my family has been supportive but your videos have calmed me during anxiety and rage episodes on multiple occasions. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for producing the content that has again literally stopped me from ending my pain permanently. Please keep up your wonderful work. My war isn't over yet as I'm scheduled for surgery in a couple of months to fuse three vertebrae and put implants in for my ruined teeth. I just felt that you needed to know that your work has truly made a difference, at least in my life. Please keep it up. Thank you. What you do has seriously impacted my life for the better. Sorry for the word wall. TLDR; spiffs content has saved the life of a PTSD stricken correctional sergeant multiple times.

Yes and No. Its good QoL in most games, and oft has plenty of exploits, but, despite Fallout New Vegas' glories it got right, it kinda gave the wrong impression on how speech/charisma mechanics should be used. (Hint: the Legate shouldn't have been able to have been talked down, it breaks the character entirely) Frankly. In all of the M&B games Charisma skills haven't been....the greatest. I have never really invested in upping them personally, nor intentionally made a character based on charisma, since you cant really....win a war by talking your opponent down, but an arrow to the eye works great by comparison!

Spiff sharing insight into his own life, what a legend

A tip about sieges....build trebuchet in each of the front line spots and as the first is built, pause the game, click on it, and move it to reserve. Repeat this with all four of them, and then you can place them all out at once so you do not have them destroyed one at a time while the next is being built.

This one bring back memories. Making minimum charisma, maximum charisma in Baldur's Gate 2, by the way of "good" companionship... and maybe 30 other ways to cheese/exploit that one Thanks for this video and the completely non-intentional trigger to cheesing memory lane!

I NEED more Squidward adventure!! I hit the bell for the next video✊🏾

Tip for the sieges when building trebuchets once 1 is completed Move it to reserve that way it does not get destroyed and once you have done that on all slots move them all to the front line and decimate their balistas and walls :)

"My lord, Squidward just captured 169 enemy lords and put them in our care." My how impressive! "Uncle, the nation we are at war with only has 20 lords, and the continent itself only ha-" Silence nephew, I will hear no more of this ill will towards my good friend Squidward.

"you could duct tape a chocolate bar to those people" mod makers get on this please and thank you

when building trebuchets, it's better to pause game and put them on reserve then keep building new ones until you get four.. then deploy all of them at the same time. it's also better if you build the siege towers before the trebuchets, so when your 4 trebuchets annihilate all enemy siege weapons, you can instantly launch assault before they can rebuild defenses.

I was looking for the 2nd video, then realized this one was uploaded only 22 hrs ago... More Squidward PLS! I can't get enough of his intoxicating charm

I love and swear my undying loyalty to this Daedric God that is Squidward, He deserves the every inch of land that there is.

Squidwards love and perfection knows no bounds this is why u must spread it to the other kingdoms

Spiff is the only youtuber who makes me pause the video and go make some tea before resuming the video

Isn't the money for mercenaries meant to be taken out of the King's stash? I think the king might have some regrets...
