@13:00-16:00 The Madness of King Grim.

[titytit]

all i can ask is:

HOW BIG IS THE FUKING CONFED ARMY!!!!????

[GrimithR]

@titytit The lack of extensive record keeping disallows a historian from making more than educated guess. At most, from 1861 to 1865, 1.25 million men served in the Confederate Army. I imagine those numbers would be different both because of my actions and because we're only in 1862, but I don't think I've captured everyone.

Not yet.

[Kirukunn]

Wow, your crazy

[MrSentia]

@Kirukunn In a good way right *_+

[Kirukunn]

@MrSentia Maybe

[Jabberdau]

2man probably 2nd manasses

[976Wally]

@GrimithR The only way to tell would be to load up the end of the battle before and choose the confederates for this battle and see if the same thing happens when the Union gets a major victory. I can't remember if you still get options if you lose a battle so it might just be Sierra trolling you.

[bcom32]

THIS IS THE WAR THAT NEVER ENDS...IT JUST GOES ON AND ON MY FRIEND!!

[dylan522p]

why dose this vid have 600 views compared to the rest with 200, do ppl just skip your vids??? how dare they and i bet your neighbors heard you

[Ottavio139]

Grimmith explains his views on politics. Grimmith comes off as slightly insane.

[976Wally]

@GrimithR the reason it said end campaign is because if you were the Confederates and the Union had won a major victory at Seven Pines then the game would have ended (with you losing)

[GrimithR]

@976Wally Hrm. I had suspected I hadn't inflicted enough damage in the grand campaign to award the Union with overall victory. If you are correct, then... well, that's simply not fair. If the player can lose the entire campaign via a Union Major Victory at Seven Pines, then the player should be able to win with a Union Major Victory at Seven Pines.

Then again, life's not fair, and neither are video games.

[TheDraconicEpic]

@GrimithR

No, videos games are logically evil, but still fair. If you have ever played Animal Crossing, you would rage how completely insane it can drive you over the little things. Please note, DON'T LP IT. YOU WILL GO INSANE. (Also it has no ending)

[GrimithR]

@TheDraconicEpic I've played Animal Crossing.

[Ferretfiend18]

2man is probably second Manassas

[TheRampancy]

Good.....Goooood. Let the hatred flow through you. Strike the Confederates down with all your anger, and your journey to the Dark Side will be com-plete.

[TheBlackSunDragon]

Oh dear God, Grimith,

I had pause the video multiple times, cause I nearly died of laughing.

Man, your Grim rage is awesome

[alecownsyou]

best line EVAR. grimith: i am the commander of everyone and every thing. no you dont grimith no you dont :P

[AHeckman118]

Umad Grim?

[effingcontroller]

...and I just got to the amazing Grimrage portion of the video. I take back everything I said; it should not have gone to Petersburg. I hope this war never ends.

[effingcontroller]

Personally, I think the Confederacy would have been almost completely broken in the East with the way you won at Bull Run/Manassas. There wouldn't have been a need for a Peninsula campaign at that point because there would be no Confederate line to outflank; thus no Seven Pines, thus no Mechanicsville. You should have been taken directly to Petersburg or something. I wouldn't blame you if you put a giant "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED" sign on the USS Monitor or something and called it good.

[GrimithR]

@effingcontroller My luck, I'd hang the banner, and Robert E. Lee would take Washington D.C.

[RedstoneFTW]

@GrimithR just an idea but maybe you have to kill the generals/ major generals and the there is no one good to lead. just a thought.

[Ziaxey]

Thank you Grimith, that rage just made this series so much more better. I love you for it. <3 I'm in tears. :')

[Ziaxey]

This rage, it's hilarious. :')

[GalaxyGuy12]

I blame Stonewall.

It's always Stonewall...

Also, do you live in an apartment? (I.E. is there a chance that you have neighbors who are extremely annoyed at your outbursts?)

Also, are your outbursts real, or really good acting?

[Atheistcat2004]

@GalaxyGuy12

Considering he's laughing I think it's 50/50

[GrimithR]

@GalaxyGuy12 I live in a suburban home.

Regarding my self-styled Grimrages... they are for dispelling my frustration by making the pertinent situation humorous. Considerable amounts of ham are involved, as I'm not actually angry while doing them - as Atheistcat2004 noted, I'm laughing while raving in this video. There has at least been one moment, however, when I've been angry during a recording (King of Dragon Pass). When I'm angry, I don't laugh; I get dead silent.

[Wilhiemthe2nd]

@GrimithR i have that on my Ipod to separate One Genre to another! :3

[CyberViking27]

2man5h = Second Manassas (2nd Bull Run)

But, wow. I cannot believe that you hadn't demolished the South enough for an out-and-out victory at Seven Pines. Perhaps you need to keep the captures in prison camps instead of setting them free? LOL But I'm glad to see it continue, this is an awesome LP. Bonus for an inspired Grimrage.

[MookieMog]

Oh good, good! I like this outcome. :D

[3man75]

look at the bright side grimith more history =]

[flarefinder]

grimtih you can so take your time on the rest of the series if you dont break the game first hahalolol. As long as you have fun

[slaxor]

Had this series going in the background as ambient radio, occasionally counting charges and snickering a bit. Really had some potential going buuut eventually took a turn for the worse and just kept turning. Too bad, too bad. Oh well, there's always space.

[GrimithR]

@slaxor Would you care to be more specific, slaxor? Knocks against my personal conduct - or the game itself - are all fine and well, but you're not really expressing your opinion so much as vague lamenting.

[slaxor]

@GrimithR Just the game's behavior in general. (Your understandable outbursts are most entertaining.)

Really, you had them pretty much outclassed from the start. Very little resistance of any kind and very, VERY long battles. Can't fathom how you could even keep going without totally losing your sanity or slipping into some sort of depression.

[GrimithR]

@slaxor I understand your attitude, and I don't fault anyone for losing interest due to a lack of AI performance. I started this series with almost no game experience - only picking it up in a very short time from SKS - and I really thought the AI would present more of a challenge to me. It doesn't. That's why I wanted to put the game to bed with this battle - or, at the very least, see if Advanced actually provides a challenge. However, CWG2 appears to be trolling me like Star Zoo did.

[slaxor]

@GrimithR Maybe, just maybe, you should give Star Zoo another shot then.

(This is actually a clever test to see if your pain receptors are dead or not.)

[GrimithR]

@slaxor Star Zoo's actually still on my computer from the last time I recorded a video of it. I don't dismiss it as a possibility.

[slaxor]

@GrimithR Oh dear. Oh no. Oh my.

Do remove any stabbing weapons from your vicinity before possibly donning the TAAANK SUUUIT once more.

[MrSentia]

@slaxor Wrong Turn (the movie)? :P

[MrBritishGamer]

DRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAGGGGOOOOONN!

[Hirmumyrsky]

so.. 17 battles... you averaged about um, 120 minutes per battle? That would total to of 68 30min episodes. Or for convenience! 204 10minute episodes.

Good thing that the soundtrack of this game is not at all repetitive.

[ScreamingDoom]

I sense you might be a small bit upset, Grimith.

You haven't Grimraged like that since... geez... Master of Orion: Burathi?

[GrimithR]

@ScreamingDoom Grimrage is different from actual anger; proof of that would be in how I laugh while I rave at the end of this video. I've had several epic moments like this where I am annoyed but also amused (like in Master of Orion), but the only example I can think of where I was legitimately angry is in one of my King of Dragon Pass videos.

[thedeathcat]

Is your personal hell now endless Star Zoo or endless CWG2?

[Ferdpi]

9:30 I think 2man5 means Second Manassas.

[flijing1]

when is he gone break a pencil :P

(if you now what i mean)

[lasergooder117]

I imagine Grimith had fire shooting out from his ears during that... Rage-ness at the end.

[AttackingTomato]

Grimith the end campaign or another battle might be a choice you make like when you decided to go out west after the first battle. so you can decide to either end the campaign or go to another battle

[GrimithR]

@AttackingTomato Oh? If we were to follow that logic... why didn't I have that choice after the Battle of Seven Pines?

[AttackingTomato]

@GrimithR Beats me.......I guess the game has a bug. Good luck on your Ur-Quan Masters LP

[SeanAldridge]

15:41 hes totally smacking his head against the keyboard. =P

[Renegade23456]

i really hope you don't live in an apartment :P

[TheSadness100]

Umm... Gimith divided by Zero?

o_o

[earganon]

Rage to the max xD

[ghostkingoftheworld]

You do not seem happy, just saying.

[NATHANBARLOWXD]

Umad? xD

[Grymic]

Nova Rage?
