This EU4 mod MADE MY PC catch on FIRE
In today's Europa Universalis IV (EU4) video we will be trying out Voltare's Nightmare mod which narrows the scope of the game to Europe, north Africa and the middle east, but greatly expands the provinces and tags represented in these regions. It's also notoriously hard to run, so let's see if my PC can handle it

Surprised by how long the Ottomans took to really get going, the majors all look like Ming at game start so thought they would dominate the game completely
Several remarks on your remarks: 4:36 Bogomilists are a dualist christian sect (dualist means that they believe in two main powers or deities, a good and an evil one). They highly influenced the somewhat more famous Cathars of southern France 4:56 Catholique is the mod's method of incorporating the western schism. Catholiques are those that support the pope in Avignon in the time that there were different people claiming the papacy in Rome and Avignon 5:02 The Waldensians were another christian sect, putting the emphasis on poverty. They were declared heretical because they refused to accept the supremacy of the local bishops. 7:02 Another difference of course is that the number of princes and the number of free cities is *much* higher in this mod 7:24 That's interesting - I have played an older version of this mod, and then it was the kingdom of the Franks (basically disunited France) that was the area using the Kingdom of Heaven dynamics 7:45 This is just that the emperor of the HRE (as well as its enemies and war allies) has military access to all HRE states when at war. That's a game dynamic that also exists in the base game. It just looks even more impressive here because of the much larger HRE.

Just to clarify your point 2, they don't represent the Avignon pope but antipope Felix V who was elected by the Council of Basel in a bid to end the schism. Instead of fixing the issue, it actually worsened it and the catholics ended up with 3 concurrent living popes. At the time of the mod however, the last Avignon pope was already dead and Felix V was the last contender to the Roman papacy, although barely anyone followed him anymore. Felix V also happened to be count Amedeus VIII of Savoy, hence why the catholique provinces in the mod are in Savoy

I thought it was for pace reasons, since the Americas end up not fully colonized by game end which... is historically accurate, the US was fighting against native Americans well into the nineteenth century.
"its running so slow" hes saying while it runs faster then my vanilla game xD
there is actually a Roman culture province in africa in djerid at an oasis, might not exist in the 1444 start date but it does exist in the VN2 new starting date (the one with normandy, apulia, leon)
Chewy: showing a lot of map changes and Details at the beginning Me: you will show us East Frisia, right :) Chewy: :) Me: you will show us East Frisia, right? 😟
Jagoldai (Yagoldayeva T'ma) was a realm established by a Tatar who defected from the Golden Horde. The population was mostly Slavic or at least many Slavs moved there, I don't remember how it exactly went. There was also the Glinsk domain to its west which was similar (established by a Tatar), it's where the Polish Glinski noble family came from.
Some time after the Norman conquests of England in the mod (around 1070 perhaps?) you can find an opm on the black sea cost settled by Anglo-Saxons called "New England" which is a state that may well have existed in real life.
I was afraid that this mod would not even consider representing Veletri, which by 1444 was independent, and although it is not represented as a nation, it is represented as a province and I am happy. Also my Grandpa's hometown of Sora has been represented as a province, which makes me even happier.
Playing this vicariously through you since my PC would end up creating a crater the size of the Caspian Sea.

4:21 In 2 March 1444, Skanderbeg gathered the Albanian lords in Lezhe and there, they formed the League of Lezhe, where Skanderbeg was recognized as commander and head of the armies of all of the nobles that participated in the league, Skanderbeg also used the title of "Dominus Albaniae" (lord of Albania) and so on. Skanderbeg had significant political and military authority over the lands of all of the Albanian nobles, although they atteined significant autonomy. In my opinion, Albania should have its own system similar to CK3 where it is one country ruled by Skanderbeg (like historically) but with the nobles having their own politics, interests and internal conflicts.
The most underrepresented nation in EU4 is Armenia. It has only one province in 1444... Assyria close second

Jagoldai principality it isnt a "cossack state". Actually it was a small tatar horde ruling by man called Jagoldai and desided to became a vassal of Lithuania
This mod looks like to needs to include snap mod where you can remove regions of the map to improve gameplay.
just here to see how accurate the surroundings of where i live are represented and it's pretty stunning damn
this messy HRE would be very cool if the map had dynamic borders like in Vic3, not fixed provinces maybe they'll implement this in eu5 and we'll see voltaire's newest nightmare
@bastobasto4866
Жыл бұрын
Vic 3 has fixed provinces - they're just really small. It's the states that are dynamic. Also, arguably, Voltaire's Nightmare basically ends up being the same as Vic3, if not more, because the provinces are really small (at least in some places).
if you play on the 1054 start date then there is a lot more flavor events and there are actual mission trees for most countries
Amazing ideas
The skåne ( Skana) country being almost all in none skåne is so not really that weird. Skåne derived from skåneland which was the terretory owned by Denmark on the Scandinavian peninsula.
I love how you looked at the Ottomans twice and didn't notice they took Constantinople and the province north of it
23:38 Where can I find this version from the first sonatina of Clementi?
if we get a world map sequel to this (perhaps in a potential EU5,) it should be called Voltaire's Sleep Paralysis Demon
“French France” at 2:06
My favorite part of this mod is the 1204 start date and more specifically Trebzond with Komemnoi restauration, because not only are all of your neighbors but the Latin Empire stronger at first needing good diplomatie, you are litteraly next to both the Ilkhanate and the Golden Horde incoming and boy the next 50 years is just sweat "dont attack me you have like 4 times more troops than my whole alliance and yours are twice as good OH GOD save me"
I think that there are some custom mission trees in the 1054 start date

Yazidis are still a faith today in Northern Iraq. Weird thing about them is that they don't accept converts marrying only between themself for thousands of years
12:10 Uatsdin, or Assianism, is the religion of the Ossetians , aka the descendants of the Alans/Scythians of the region. Its basically believed to be the religion of the ancient Scythians kept alive by these peoples. Funny enough, it still exists today

Just Germany would be fun. Maybe try a minor faction in Germany, and see how it goes from there? You could form Westphalia, for example!

9:03 every Irishman a king but all shall bemd to the man in London
This mod also has the feature of running eu4 in such a way that an in-game year also takes an irl year. Just so that players could enjoy an even more realistic experience!
I'm guessing the OPM's on the edge of the map are to simulate trade mechanics etc from the rest of the eu4 map
Why did you started in 1444? (Voltaire's Nightmare II haves 1054-1444)

Regarding Albania: Indeed, Albania wasn't a united state, but rather, in 1444, an alliance of rebellious Albanian nobles (the League of Lezhe), led by House Kastori under Skanderbeg. EU4 simplifies it for good reason, LOL

Catholique is used to represent the supporters of the Avignon papacy instead of the one in Rome. Wikipedia states that the schism ended in 1417 so I assume the ones on the map are the remaining diehards. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avignon_Papacy

Albania in 1444 was something like the Old Swiss Confederacy, it was a confederacy of Albanian princes/dukes/lords/despots who agreed to a common league against the Ottomans (and for a time Venice too). Skanderbeg was named "First among equals", but due to the weakening of other monarchs and or deaths essentially turned the confederacy into his own Lordship (and indeed referred to himself as Lord of Albania/Albanians)
