Hearts of Iron 4 What if the Russian Civil Kerfuffle Never Ended? 

*Here we go, can I win as White Russia? The poll didn't look good*

"Increase my birthrate, pleeaaasee!" *researches mustard gas*

Imagine being a White Russian soldier in this weird timeline. Your side has a miniscule amount of the industry and population centres of Russia and the reds posses a gigantic numerical advantage over you, it all seems lost. But the disorganized white forces suddenly becomes more and more capable. Leadership is competent rather than chaotic, industry in Siberia somehow manages to supply you more and more weapons and the you begin to push back. You fight, fight and fight. From Siberia to the Urals you push back the soviets. You realise that days have become months and months have become years. You have seen teenage conscripts become men and child soldiers become teenagers. All they and you have known is war, for years against the Germans and then your own countrymen. Then, after years of brutal combat you begin to reach the Russian heartland. However, you hear that the damned poles have invaded, occupying vast swathes of the Rodina. So you dutifully fight for her honour again. The mad push by the whites succeed and then you finally win. A decade of service for the motherland, for some it even may be 13 years of service ! P.S: What would Russia look like after 13 years of such a brutal war ?

haven't been this early since Stalin was just a rather dashing Georgian citizen.

Honestly I'm just commenting to boost Alex's engagement

When he said “Do you like tanks?” I thought he was sponsored by world of tanks lol

Alex: “Imagine like 12 years of fighting for your nation.” Hundred Years’ War, Syrian Civil War, War on Terror, and tons of other wars: “Am I a joke to you?”

Alex: Let's reach 5K likes, Me: YES LORD RAMBLER

"Alex it's me, Tsar Nicholas. You have to let me go. The revolution wasn't your fault."

I honestly feel that your livestream (cut down) videos are some of the best content you've made and honestly re-sparked my interest in your videos. The livestreams seem to give your videos a more "honest", responsive and more entertaining videos. Where clips of you interacting with chat honestly makes the videos! Hope to see more of it! Love, A long time fan

When he said do you like tanks I was fully expecting a Segway into a sponsorship

Quite an achievement by the developers to make the game be able to run the same speed as in the beginning after 12 years of gameplay

I want see rambler voting in elections like: stauch monarchist Rambler:yes Please

thanks so much, alex!! you've been my favorite for years 😄

28:00 The Germans advancing towards Moscow 28:08 The Germans arrive at the outskirts of Moscow 28:10 The Germans if they actually took the city 28:15 The Germans realising the soviets have pulled a sneaky one on them 28:18 The Germans desperately trying to hold on to Moscow 28:24 Hitler back in Berlin reacting to the encirclement of Moscow

Rambler: imagine fighting so long for your country 100 years war: Are 116 years a joke for you?

28:49 "Imagine like 12 years of fighting for your nation". Vietnam War: Am I a joke to you?

The genuine enjoyment you got out of this scenario is very refreshing and wholesome

That was actually very competent. I am proud of you Mr. Rambler

"Imagine fighting 12 years for your nation" The Netherlands in the 80 years war, Imma pretend I am not there.

After all these years we finally know how kerfuffle is spelled.

I needed this

"we have liberated you from your soviet/polish oppressors.. heres a gun and the front is that way!"

“Nothing has changed in north or South America” *sad Peruvian noises*

If you didn't name that giant bear after Wojtek I'll be very disappointed

Honestly one of the best scenarios in the last 6 months, good job Alex. 👍 Really engaging video.

Wow this was one of the best videos I've seen from you, freaking amazing content right here!

Nobody: Literally nobody: Alex fighting a civil war for 21 years starving his own people: happy gibberish

Yo Alex I think you probably won’t read this. But, if you do, I want you to know: I have been a fan for years and I am always thrilled when you upload. Love you, bro! (no homo) -TJ

Here we are, after I have this concept in mind the "legend of hoi4" made a video about it. Keep it up!

"Imagine 12 years of fighting for your nation." Dutch: Those are rookie numbers.

Good Job Alex! You're now mostly competent!

Alex doesn't get enough appreciation for how positive he is, I mean just try to watch him without feeling happy, I dare you.

The youtube algorithm really does give me some good recommendations sometimes. Nice video.

If we want to really boost involvement, we should do his underperforming non-hoi4 videos so that he can branch out and diversify his channel instead of being stuck with just hoi4

''if i had 10 alex i would have one the war'' -nono german toothbrush moustache man

Everyone start looking for evidence in the video that ISP did it

This is the most fun I’ve had watching one of your vids in months, more of this please 😂

Imagine fighting for 12 years. Some of those men started at 16 and were almost 30 by the end of the war.

Imagine going through all that effort, and then getting bitch slapped by Germany kicking off WWII right afterwards lol... except this time there's no Poland to act as a buffer. Great video, would like to see you continue this save through WWII if that's possible and see how well you counter a modern German army with tanks etc.

Stalingrad??? This is before revolution of stalin

British people be like: Amongst Us

Alex overtakes Raid Shadow Legends as the premier small channel sponsor

8:00 "Red Tide" God I love the ring to that...

You need to hold until Barbarossa then the germans come helpnig. 🤣🤣🤣

Next run play Poland with Piłsudski, look at that magnificent mustache

Oh my my my that was so fricking amazing

This was genuinely one of my favorite videos

4:03 "fentigan clique" Alexander, please, what is the meaning of this??

Oh whoops, I thought you were playing as Belarus, as it’s called «Hviterussland» in Norwegian, which, directly translated, means «white russia»

When he said : "Do you like tanks?" i just thought to myself : Here comes another world of tanks ad

Love the Union Jack in the background

Just imagine if the soviets were defeated in our timeline. Russia would be a lot stronger I feel.

Hi! Good vidio

This was probably the longest Alex The Rambler video i've ever seen

Russian Civil Kerfuffle: .... Alex: I can milk you..

Bolshevik revolutionist: “We are the good guys.” *Then commences “Red Terror.”*

The way you pronounced 'KUOMINTANG' was beautiful

This was one of the best rambler videos I’ve seen in a long time! Dat micro tho!

"The Bolsheviks are also Russian" he doesn't know lol

1st

Alex is the HOI4 daddy And Tommy is the HOI4 deranged uncle

This should have been an expansion from paradox, the WWI start date would have been very interesting to play as.

"we win"-Alex 13:12

8:25 Alex has scored a brand deal with Tesco

What a fantastic campaign. Really was such a roller coaster. Great!

That was a nailbiter! My fingers are pudgy sausages now. I cant scratch myself help

What a civil kerfuffle.. and it's Rambler for the win 🎉

This one was impressive, truly a roller-coaster of emotions

I like your livestream edits. Chats feels like a character you can interact with and get more content.

Aww hell yea, time to get baked, unwind and watch a brand new Rambler video!

WOW Your Finale tactic was amazing. You send the entire polish army north, then you attacked from the south... Genius!

I think is is possibly the best video Alex has ever made.

*He hasnt lost?! This is amazing!*

Honestly Alex I can't see why everyone calls you bad at this. This video proofs you are rather good.

"But luckily, the AI doesn't seem like moving where troops aren't *BASED* " 9:36

For a monarchist, he seems to not realise blood is what makes his dynasty the Romanov Dynasty. Worked for William the Conqueror until after Queen Anne died childless and they got a member of Annes husband in charge, hence the Windsor incident in WW1. Anne being the daughter of the 'last' Stuart king put in power after he got kicked out.

This is some good Minecraft gameplay.

its funny that in a mod with really great and hard work of the developers they kept name "Stalingrad" in 1919 start, even with knowledge, that Stalin didn't rule till 1922

An actual competent HoI 4 video? Here? Wow.

I want to see WW 2 in this scenario now...

Alex the rambler in 1924 as white russia: hey! You've been liberated but, backwards

Field Marshal Alex von Ramblerstein has done it again

Any stuff by Alex is a treat. Let's hope that treat doesn't become rare.

Here is a helpful tip I learned from Taureor, basically, cut off thier land from the rest of the land, so if their is 1 state connected to the piece deal lands, take that state, then pass a bunch till you have enough war score to annex the other states, youll also wanna take the coastal states too

"I have to do one desperate push towards Stalingrad." I feel I've heard that somewhere before. Well, nahhh, it will probably work out fine this time.

This is fantastic. First video in a long time that doesn't feel low effort. Keep up the good work.

Hoi4 is a fun game for civil wars like this one because being that industry is relatively easy to build you can industrialize the siberian area, which you wouldn’t industrialize normally

One of the best hoi videos on RU-vid in a while

missed the opportunity to say, "do you like tanks? well, if you do, you should play world of tanks, a free-

Taboritsky: Is that you, Alexei?

There is a thing which in peace deals if you get the cost lines and the land territory in common with two countries the AI wouldn't take any thing

Guess who back , back again rambler bacl , tell a friend, ramblers back ramblers back rambers back

Legitimately one of your best videos

And I’m returning to your channel!

Alex daddily rambling rambily wumbo rambler

Keep up the good work Alex love the channel

Imagine fighting and winning a 13 year Civil War, from 1917 to 1930.

"Imagine like fighting twelve years for your nation" Vietnam fought for 27 years (1945-1972)
