=== Glorious Reconquista (02:20) ===

[00:00:04]  Greetings Warriors of Christ and welcome back to our glorious Reconquista.
[00:00:12]  I'm rocking my to arms t-shirt to honor the brave men of Spain, Portugal and France who fought against the Muslim invaders.
[00:00:27]  I'm of course talking about the Battle of Poitiers.
[00:00:32]  Not sure how you pronounce that.
[00:00:35]  And Charles Martel.
[00:00:36]  However, what I do know how to pronounce now, thank you to my Spanish troop friends, is Beya.
[00:00:43]  I think I got it right.
[00:00:44]  And then in Portuguese it's actually Beja, which I something like it at least.
[00:00:50]  But pronunciations aside, let us get on with it.
[00:00:55]  Get on with our glorious Reconquista.
[00:00:57]  Now, first things first, I noticed that this army is actually called the Blades of Mercy.
[00:01:04]  That is not optimal for glory.
[00:01:08]  So, I actually consulted Teddy.
[00:01:13]  Greetings.
[00:01:15]  And he suggested that we should change the name.
[00:01:18]  So we're going to do that right now to the blades of Teddy, what did you say?
[00:01:26]  The blades of Glory.
[00:01:35]  That's better.
[00:01:37]  Better much better.
[00:01:39]  So yeah, I'm gonna take the turn.
[00:01:42]  Oh!
[00:01:44]  They have low integrity.
[00:01:49]  Oh well, I suppose they would have higher integrity now that we have changed their name to the Blades of Glory.
[00:01:55]  A lot cooler than the Blades of Mercy.
[00:01:58]  Like, we're not supposed to show mercy to our enemies here.
[00:02:03]  That's not optimal for glory.
[00:02:05]  Look at this.
[00:02:05]  We have a fight.
[00:02:07]  Oh.
[00:02:09]  Glad.
[00:02:10]  Berber Lys.
[00:02:13]  No, thanks.
[00:02:14]  I don't want to box with them right now.
[00:02:16]  We'll have to call for our king.
[00:02:19]  Aka me.
[00:02:20]  The glorious Reconquistador.

=== Strategic Jiu-Jitsu (02:46) ===

[00:02:25]  I don't know if that's a term, but oh well.
[00:02:28]  Okay, cool.
[00:02:30]  Let us investigate the possibility.
[00:02:35]  God, I wish I could poison them or something.
[00:02:38]  That would be glorious.
[00:02:40]  So.
[00:02:43]  Bea, you will have to wait.
[00:02:46]  You will have to suffer the unjust rule of the Muslims for just a few turns more.
[00:02:51]  because I'm sending up General Aurelio to deal with these guys, so gonna get you back there.
[00:03:03]  And they support each other.
[00:03:06]  Might as well place this army behind so that these guys reinforce.
[00:03:11]  And the reason for that is when you reinforce another army, the reinforcing army comes to the battlefield a bit later.
[00:03:18]  And these are all cavalry.
[00:03:20]  So that's my little strategic plan.
[00:03:24]  Can we actually create some new Iberian cavalry?
[00:03:33]  We can also build something fun here.
[00:03:37]  Enables agent recruitment.
[00:03:39]  Hostile attack.
[00:03:41]  And I'm actually I don't know if I said that in any of the previous videos I will probably say it again.
[00:03:52]  But I will go to Portugal with my, with my MMA team, in late January for a Brazilian jiu-jitsu that's how you pronounce it if you're from Brazil.
[00:04:08]  Brazil Jiu-Jitsu not really, but I try, I tried at least to to sound like it.
[00:04:15]  But yeah, um to to a seminar there.
[00:04:17]  And the Lord, God favors me uh, pay him off the bustad.
[00:04:26]  Uh yes, so we're gonna go there and train some uh, Brazilian jiu-jitsu for four days.
[00:04:33]  Uh, what's this now, god?
[00:04:36]  I want something fun and not, uh like, not start fire.
[00:04:40]  I don't want to burn down our beloved Spain here.
[00:04:43]  I want to.
[00:04:47]  This is absolutely barbaric.
[00:04:50]  I can't even find anything fun to do with them.
[00:04:53]  The pride of Al Andalus.
[00:04:57]  Well then, I'll.
[00:04:59]  Andalus, I think you and I have to have a little talk.
[00:05:04]  Okay let's, let's talk in more glory.

=== Rebellion On Our Hands (02:34) ===

[00:05:11]  I think it's the best thing.
[00:05:13]  These guys can't really threaten us, so we're gonna do like this, Garcia shout out to Justin Garcia of the Pressure project, pressureproject.com great, great podcast.
[00:05:33]  So I don't think he will be watching this and he watches some of my videos, but but yeah, a big shout out to him and to the Pressure project.
[00:05:42]  Justin Garcia and I was actually on, did an interview with them, but two months ago.
[00:05:52]  So great pleasure and honor.
[00:05:54]  Look, we have a rebellion on our hands.
[00:05:57]  How blasphemous, maybe we should.
[00:06:01]  Aha, we can't create another one blasphemy.
[00:06:11]  So we're gonna have a rebellion on our hands.
[00:06:15]  How unfool in all ice cells.
[00:06:21]  And yeah so um so, rocking my Au Armé t-shirt with a fleur de lis to to optimize my performance in this.
[00:06:32]  Uh, let's play.
[00:06:34]  And I've played some, some more of this DLC, off camera, as it were, and I'm really impressed by this, by this campaign, this DLC.
[00:06:48]  Actually no, I'm gonna block you sorry sorry, not sorry, I mean, he did it without my explicit permission.
[00:07:02]  The, the buster Merida, the caliphs, chosen ready for orders cool cunning upkeep, minus, that's awesome.
[00:07:17]  But what, what more can we have?
[00:07:18]  Sil, gonna go with one of each there, all right, cool.
[00:07:26]  So what can we do here?
[00:07:28]  We can take Case and now I don't remember what, how you pronounce that one, but but sure look, that's fine, let's take this little battle at least to get the The violence going.

=== Voice Acting Battle (09:10) ===

[00:07:45]  I felt that I've talked too much and killed too little.
[00:07:50]  Oh, there's the Arab guy again.
[00:07:52]  He looks properly evil.
[00:07:54]  This little thing there.
[00:07:56]  Load up with some tea also.
[00:08:00]  Absolutely glorious.
[00:08:02]  So, yeah, quite small battle this.
[00:08:06]  Probably try to get in another battle in this episode.
[00:08:14]  Foggy, no thanks.
[00:08:17]  Dry.
[00:08:17]  Yes, thanks.
[00:08:19]  And that is basically, I prefer to have, to see what I'm doing.
[00:08:23]  And then also because we have a good few skirmishers.
[00:08:30]  Now, gonna keep them there until...
[00:08:38]  Ah, there they are.
[00:08:39]  Our reinforcements enter the fray!
[00:08:42]  Men of Christ.
[00:08:45]  Now, let's see what we can do here.
[00:08:48]  Onward, men.
[00:08:50]  You know what would be really cool if I got some sort of contract for voice acting in like games, and then when you click at a certain unit, my voice would actually go like Proud Men of Christ.
[00:09:05]  Yeah, I think voice acting is the appropriate term there.
[00:09:12]  Speaking of which, in the Witcher Tree, actually Tywin Lannister does voice acting in that game.
[00:09:24]  I haven't played it yet though, but just give a context to my little rambling here.
[00:09:30]  I don't know if it makes any sense, but yeah, the voices for the units, etc.
[00:09:35]  I think it would be really cool to do those in all actuality.
[00:09:43]  So if anyone is looking for a talent scout for voice acting, call me.
[00:09:50]  No, send a mail.
[00:09:50]  I don't know.
[00:09:52]  Look how cool this looks.
[00:09:56]  Love it.
[00:09:57]  Absolutely love it.
[00:09:58]  Okay, let's talk more, and there we go, fire at them.
[00:10:14]  And now we don't want to friendly fire our general.
[00:10:21]  Proud men of Christ.
[00:10:24]  And no to any pagan true friends.
[00:10:26]  Don't worry, I'm still pagan, but I love shouting Christian aesthetics kind of things.
[00:10:31]  Oh, look at that!
[00:10:32]  Look at that, strewprints!
[00:10:38]  That, if anything.
[00:10:42]  What?
[00:10:42]  How can our glorious general die like that?
[00:10:51]  Oh, I forced the wrong way.
[00:11:01]  Come on, then.
[00:11:04]  This look rather cool though.
[00:11:05]  Oh, yes, love it.
[00:11:08]  God, I love this game.
[00:11:12]  Yeah, just because they're invading our territory and our plasmas does not mean that we can ignore the fact that they look rather The enemy.
[00:11:34]  Boom. Alright. Cool.
[00:11:50]  Look at this.
[00:11:52]  Ah, wonderful.
[00:11:53]  Come on and shoot us, Bastaj dead.
[00:11:56]  Come on.
[00:11:59]  No.
[00:12:04]  That's true.
[00:12:05]  If anything, felt optimal for glory and battle.
[00:12:14]  Fucking glorious.
[00:12:15]  Well done, Garcia.
[00:12:19]  That was felt good.
[00:12:26]  Feels good, man.
[00:12:28]  The JPG.
[00:12:31]  So yeah, I was going to say, these Moors, the Muslims, they look cool, even though they are our enemy.
[00:12:39]  The spares of...
[00:12:40]  Okay, what I'm going to do in honor of The Pressure Project and Justin Garcia.
[00:12:45]  The spears of power.
[00:12:50]  Sounds so cool.
[00:12:52]  Okay, we're gonna hunt down this guy.
[00:13:07]  And we have a...
[00:13:09]  Gonna go with that one.
[00:13:11]  Now.
[00:13:15]  Repair and look at that.
[00:13:18]  We can have another governor.
[00:13:24]  Entrepreneur.
[00:13:28]  There we are.
[00:13:30]  And what can we go gonna go with some food production?
[00:13:39]  Okay, cool.
[00:13:39]  We have our rebellion.
[00:13:42]  Absolutely barbaric.
[00:13:44]  I wish we could have another general, but we can't.
[00:13:51]  I should have to send this guy up.
[00:13:56]  And he will be there in two turns.
[00:13:58]  Don't really know if we can catch him.
[00:14:06]  Oh well.
[00:14:11]  We take this settlement!
[00:14:13]  Let them cower like cannot do it.
[00:14:16]  Glory to God.
[00:14:17]  Now we're gonna take that settlement at least.
[00:14:22]  Maybe we should utilize a little flute.
[00:14:25]  I don't know why though, but okay, we're having a rebellion to deal with here as well.
[00:14:41]  I'm going to decimate you, you bastard.
[00:14:44]  We're gonna be acting up and not admiring my king.
[00:14:50]  Kingship.
[00:14:55]  in all actuality oh what's that?
[00:15:10]  Taifa of Valencia for death and honor gonna go with conning which lowers the the upkeep cost which is awesome occupy you
[00:15:36]  The heroes of the caliphate, I assume they want to box with me sooner or later.
[00:15:44]  You may serve me by I suppose, keeping an eye on this guys, I could take the caliphate chosen.
[00:15:59]  No question about that at all.
[00:16:06]  I just hope these guys don't sack Braga until we come up there.
[00:16:12]  But recruiting Royal House.
[00:16:20]  Okay, we're gonna repair these things.
[00:16:25]  And I don't think it's prudent to lay a siege there just yet.
[00:16:34]  You may as well get comfy men like that.
[00:16:36]  Okay, next turn, we're gonna swoop down Yasake that settlement.
[00:16:44]  They still low integrity.
[00:16:46]  Absolutely blasphemous.
[00:16:48]  How dare they talk to me like that?

=== The Hardest Word (08:15) ===

[00:16:55]  I will speak the hardest word for a warrior.
[00:16:58]  Peace.
[00:16:59]  It is an honorable offer.
[00:17:01]  Absolutely not.
[00:17:03]  Absolutely not.
[00:17:05]  How dare they.
[00:17:11]  Oh.
[00:17:16]  Maybe we should have taken them up on their offer.
[00:17:18]  Okay.
[00:17:20]  Let's go with a battle at least.
[00:17:22]  But remember, our main army is still safe within the walls.
[00:17:28]  Let's see the blades of glory, what you can do.
[00:17:31]  I don't suppose we have particular much of a chance there considering they're all our spearmen, which counters our cavalry quite well.
[00:17:42]  But what we can do is kill as many of them as possible.
[00:17:48]  Make a glorious last stand.
[00:17:54]  Alright then, start battle.
[00:18:02]  Now.
[00:18:07]  The enemy approaches!
[00:18:16]  Would be cool to get your general.
[00:18:21]  For the glory of God!
[00:18:38]  Engage!
[00:18:42]  Stand for a man.
[00:18:43]  I love this workout Highly glorious.
[00:19:05]  Okay, I'm entering powergaming mode.
[00:19:12]  If I'm not that talkative, it's because I must win this battle for the glory of Christ.
[00:19:31]  I love that one.
[00:19:31]  having Kuwait.
[00:19:38]  I don't want to stand in the box with a Spearman like this.
[00:19:41]  Not one bit.
[00:19:43]  Thank you very much.
[00:19:45]  Get his Berber light cavalry.
[00:19:49]  Get em, boys!
[00:20:06]  Aw, fuck.
[00:20:18]  Yeah, they're, uh, they're spearmen.
[00:20:22]  Won them the battle, I'm afraid.
[00:20:25]  Our advantage has been lost.
[00:20:29]  If I can at least kill the general, I will be a happy crusader.
[00:20:44]  Ah, wonderful.
[00:20:47]  We got that satisfaction at least.
[00:20:49]  Alright, the battle is lost either way.
[00:20:52]  I'm just gonna spit it up.
[00:20:58]  Our first defeat, true friends.
[00:21:00]  I have failed you all.
[00:21:04]  No, it's fine.
[00:21:05]  I will take the revenge.
[00:21:07]  Yeah, fear not, fear not.
[00:21:10]  It's all bad!
[00:21:18]  Do you like that?
[00:21:28]  They will pay for this.
[00:21:29]  They will pay, true friends.
[00:21:31]  That is the only thing I can promise to you all.
[00:21:35]  How dare they?
[00:21:39]  Oh, for the love of Talos.
[00:21:42]  No, I don't want to take that.
[00:21:46]  Okay, so the Pieta Leftists are back.
[00:21:49]  I should have been more careful.
[00:21:50]  should have raised the army.
[00:22:06]  Okay, so I'm gonna go up there and recruit some units.
[00:22:16]  It is a great and glorious thing to serve your levy skirmisher.
[00:22:21]  And then I'm gonna create another one.
[00:22:23]  Gonna create a rider.
[00:22:25]  The Blades of Glory will be reinstated.
[00:22:29]  And oh, look at that.
[00:22:32]  Ambushers.
[00:22:32]  Fuh, million.
[00:22:38]  And then I can send them down and crush them between me.
[00:22:42]  Now, true friends, let us die, you heathen scum.
[00:22:54]  Hmm Okay, I could take the settlement, but I could also kill this guy.
[00:23:08]  Oh, who's easy?
[00:23:11]  Nice.
[00:23:15]  Alright, cool.
[00:23:16]  I'm gonna take one Additional turn in this in this episode, true friends.
[00:23:28]  This is my plan in all Axelty.
[00:23:30]  And then I hope that this offer of conflict.
[00:23:34]  Absolutely not.
[00:23:35]  Absolutely not.
[00:23:36]  Absolutely barbaric, if anything.
[00:23:38]  That would be to accept a truce from the enemies of Christ.
[00:23:44]  You come to our lands and try to wrest it from the rightful rule of the another rebellion imminent.
[00:23:55]  Fuck.
[00:23:57]  Hello, lads.
[00:23:59]  How are we today?
[00:24:01]  That's all I wanted to do in this episode as well.
[00:24:09]  Now we have war weariness.
[00:24:12]  Let's see if they actually do want a peace treaty.
[00:24:18]  No, I don't want to trade with you.
[00:24:20]  I want some shekels, though.
[00:24:22]  Give shekels.
[00:24:24]  Give more shekels.
[00:24:29]  Mm-hmm.
[00:24:33]  My lord will- Okay, cool.
[00:24:36]  That- That will have to do.
[00:24:41]  That will have to do for now.
[00:24:43]  And the reason for that is we need a break from the war.
[00:24:47]  Otherwise, there will be more rebellions.
[00:24:50]  But fear not, true friends.
[00:24:53]  We have expanded our empire.
[00:25:00]  A good bit.
[00:25:01]  So yeah, thank you very much for watching.
[00:25:06]  And who am I?
[00:25:07]  The glorious champion of God himself.
