Welcome back to NFL Imperialism! Episode #3 features the same concept you know and love but adds a new game changer- powerups. Who will conquer the entire United States in this Madden-simulated, geography-styled game?
You should make a change for part 4: when a team loses, they are not kicked off the map but exiled to Hawaii. Only two teams can fit on Hawaii, so once two teams are eliminated, they fight in Hawaii and whoever wins gets a random unclaimed state and is welcomed back on the map.
Power up idea - Curse: placed on an unclaimed state, when a team lands on Curse they will lose their best player on the team immediately. Let me know if this is a good idea! Hope for it to convince you to add it in to the next imperialism video!
LETS GO COWBOYS!!! this helps a little after losing to the niners. I love the power ups the cowboys wouldnt have won without them. im so excited for episode 4!!!
Just finished watching the video earlier. Here's some powerup ideas for you :D -Power Steal: When claimed, this team can steal the currently active powerups of defeated opponents (this powerup cannot be stolen) -Wild Card: Mimicks the effect of a single, randomly chosen existing powerup -Home Turf: When claimed, this team will claim home-field advantage for the rest of their games, even if they should be the road team -Extra Spin Token: When claimed, teams can use one Token to get a free re-spin of the attacking arrow (multiple Tokens exist across the country in different States) -Double Or Nothing: A high-risk, high-reward power-up that forces the team who claimed it to go for two on every TD drive
The power ups were such a great addition. You should add some more, here are some fun ideas: Time Traveler: The team gets to choose one historical player from their franchise to “time travel” and play in their prime Swap and stash: The team that gets this gets to swap their worst position with the best player at that position, if the player is on a team, that team will have to play the swapped player Ex: Falcons switch ridder Mahomes, ridder must start for chiefs for rest of video Time Bomb: The user can place a time bomb on an opponent of their choice, every 5 turns the time bomb removes a chunk of land from the opponent until the user or opponent is conquered
Wow this was such a well done video. These keep getting better and better. I'm really enjoying this series! As a Cowboys fan, I was extremely happy to see this outcome! This will help me heal with our loss to the 49ers ;(
Hey give us Cowboys fans at the very least this , I mean y’all still in playoffs we deserve SOME happiness as we’ve been dawged on by the whole country this past weekend lol

I was so exited when the chiefs beat the titans empire because it thought it was going to be JJetas and Mahomes, but when he said Myles Garret 💀💀💀 Edit: THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN WITH TYREEK. WE DONT HAVE A WR
This series is so addicting I don’t really care how long each episode is bc I never get bored of it! Keep up the good work Idea: when the wheel lands on a team and they claim a free state they should get +1 ovr to a player and the next time you spin the wheel the best wr of the team it lands on and the other go to a wr battle a random qb does the 1v1 and the winner gets that player. Sorry if it’s confusing I’m very tired.
I love this series and hope to see more of it. Two things I would say though is: 1.) I (personally) would want to see this as if there were no injuries in the NFL (meaning people like Tua and Lamar would still start) 2.) I would like to see what upgrades you are actually doing when teams land on empty territory.
I was going to get ready for bed then I saw this and realized I had to stay up one more hour. I know these videos take lots of time and effort but I genuinely love this series. In fact it has caused me to search for these videos everywhere with them all pointing back to the sport imperialism GOAT. Keep up the great work.
Great vid! I love these imperialism vids and its a trend you started! Although as a Commanders fan (sadly, but I live like 10 mins from their practice facility) whose girlfriend is a Lions fan, this was rough. A potential change would be to move the logo once borders change to be in the middle of their territory. Another potential change to make (that would also make this take even more of your time xD) is that if the team defending wins, they get the player, but they have to also invade their home to get the land. Similar to risk, if you invade and lose, it just weakens you if your opponent invades, if you lose your attack, you don't lose your province. I do understand for time sake though not doing this lol.
I favor the Chiefs over the Cowboys but I love both teams. This is the result I was looking for in episode 1. Chiefs vs Cowboys for the final fight, sadly cowboys got taken out by the 49ers.
And to this day... The Cowboys decided today that they'll make themselves LITERALLY America's Team. Great video man! Still waiting on our Packers to do SOMETHING productive in this series, but whatever... Can't wait to see what you decide to add to Episode 4!
@Deansworld what about power downs on certain states You know to introduce pitfalls to expanding and like powerups do go away It would give some small teams a better chance to be a giant slayer In personal TERMS CAN my team WIN ONCE in imperialism (one game lol) I can't get a drink out of the fridge n my team is off the map already lol
Random idea (If having teams left out of random selection is a concern): Every 10 turns, limit the random selection to teams that haven't been chosen yet. Fun video. Keep it up!!
I really enjoyed this, the powerups were so cool! To get every team involved, you could remove a team from the wheel once they have been selected until every team has been called upon. Then make a new wheel with whatever teams are left after each round. That way there's no cowardly bad teams in the top 5 left lol. But great video as always :)
You should make a "Time Out" rule to solve the problem of some teams not getting called on. If a team is selected like 3 times or something they are taken off the wheel for a certain amount of spins. Love the imperialism vids man keep it up!
such a good idea, love the power up, love these videos! hope others are directing viewers to your videos in their content! I think it'd be interesting if the winning team got to keep all stolen players.
I'm in love with this series! Hope to see a LOT more to come in the future! I was thinking maybe at the end of the video you show how many times each team has won Imperialism? I dunno I like statistics and think keeping track of the winners is cool like what you do with one of your other series! Thank you so much for the fun videos!
Yes- I was planning on creating a leaderboard for imperialism but I ran short of my deadline... It will 100% be a plan for the future! It will include past winners, total battles won/lost, total turns lasted, and such. Sorry I couldn't sneak it in here!
I love seeing the video quality improve each time I watch one of these Imperialism videos. These put a fun twist on NFL teams! Still waiting for the day my Seahawks make it to the top. Also, hard burn on the Chargers 😂
Love your series! Only thing I’d change is setting the Jaguar’s color to teal instead of brown-ish gold. Saints (nearby) and Niners already have similar colors
Great idea, love this. Like you said far from perfect but getting there, one of the changes id make is, the winning team steals a the best overall player of that team, now if the winning team has a position at a 99 then winning team worst ranked player gets upgraded
I had to commit to the choice because of prior games I recorded I had current rosters. Episode 4 will have no injured rosters, considering the nfl season would be done anyways
Suggestions for future Imperial Vids: If you wanted to give teams a fair chance of participating. You could do each team in order of the irl standings. That way at least every team would have a chance to go once theoretically
I think it being chance based adds to it. The bills being one and done because they weren’t moving, episode 1 the panthers becoming a superpower, this episode ATL and the broncos being better than expectations. Adds interesting story
