Welcome back Jingles, here’s to a great 2020 for all of us here!
You may see ads in this video because Disney monetised the shit out of it.
@Sons of Odin World of warships Hogs of War was an awesome game on PS1, shame the AI doesn’t work on PC.
Bird Dog
I love that strategy to pit piggy corp vs piggy corp.
I see no ads. Possibly the browser i’m using…
check out Thrawn’s Revenge mod for EAW. I think you will thoroughly
enjoy it. 🙂
Yeah I got an ad, shame Disney can’t keep their greedy hands off your videos.
Welcome back Jingles. Fresh report in from the salt mines… lemme put my reading glasses on… Ah there we go. Ahem. “Everything is on fire.”
“This is fine.”
“We seem to have some confusion amongst the miners as to whether we should be mining NaCl or MSG. And some even seem to think that MSG is a concert venue in Manhattan. Perhaps two weeks away was too long, sir.”
Jingles : Normal service has been resumed!
The Salt miners : We were hopeing for some kind of improvement!
Painted Blue Are you complaining Salt Miner? Do I need to send in the Jingolian Guard?
We have a complainer here! Someone must do something with him! Call the guards! XD 😛
Hmmm. Seems like an attempt to unionise the salt miners.
Send the guards in.
Warren Lehmkuhle: “Do I need to send in the Jingolian Guard?”
You could also send in the Jinglessaries … but remember their computers run on EUNUX, not Windows, Mac OS, or Linux.
“A lot of you are probably too young to remember the Game ‚The Settlers‘….“
Does this channel have an equal opportunity commissioner? I feel like the victim of age discrimination here!
I played the original on my 286 with the help of a special boot disk. So who is old here.
Civ1 anyone? I loved the city conquest cinematics!
@Jens Koch Bitch I used tape drives back in the day.
TAPE DRIVES.
Evilmike42: So did I. Commodore C64 came with a tape drive that used standard audio cassettes. It took forever to load anything. Compression came and it got better. Eventually we spent as much as we had to spend on the computer for a floppy drive. That made loading the original ELITE bearable….
Settlers … and Populous :p
Hey Jingles, if you liked the empire at war remake mod, I highly recommend playing the Thrawn’s Revenge mod, it’s a lot of fun.
I quite liked Republic at War as well
michael atalay yes
Republic at War messed with the AI and ruined it for me.
Regarding the beard: 2 costume ideas you need to try, the by you mentioned ‘Dirty Biker’ and of course Bad Santa!
… well ok, maybe i just hope to see Rita in costume fitting to both, like ‘hot biker-chick’ and ‘naughty elf/Mrs. Santa’ 😉
“There is no way i’m going to lose this battle, i completely outnumber the rebel forces” – last recorded words of Grand Moff Jingles.
I’ve beaten superior forces with a level one space station.
@MrDgwphotosNah, you cheated. You’ve gotten 10 of the legendary Jedi and battle droids. While the Grand Moff was betrayed by the former Imperial Emperor and beaten by the Resistance led by his clone brother and his girl Jedi Master with the pets. Reference to his Star Wars game loyalties contrary to our as rebel sympathizers.
America has bad internet and tel-co monopolies ‘ey? Hold my shoe…
The Settlers Series is actually one of the earlier things I played. So, yeah, I’ve got good memories about those games!
Darth Jingles: “I find your lack of salt disturbing”.
Emperor Jingletine: “Sith at first you don’t succeed, try try again.”
Hey i’m a Empire at War Remake dev. (One of the only 2)
Totally happy surprise to see my gnome overlord enjoying something i helped build.
You did a great job, honestly your mod genuinely feels like a new game and completely refreshed my interest in EaW. I’ve even convinced my old buddies to play with me again.
Thank you so much for what you’ve created. Great work!
I love your mod.
I can find the game on Steam (gold pack). But where do I find the remake mod?
@1958PonyBoy go to steam workshop, and in the search bar type ‘Empire at war: remake’ or ‘remake’
@1958PonyBoy You can find the mod here: https://www.moddb.com/mods/empire-at-war-re
If you upload the Cold Waters series in its entirety, and maybe some of the old great WoWs games like the AFK solo warrior, youll have me on Floatplane.
“You either came back super fit or you were an alcoholic”
You can guess which one Jingles was.
Super fit of course as we can see
The Gnomish Overlord is and has always has gone above and beyond. He came back as a super fit alcoholic.
“Daily dose of Jingles” I think Jingles has been watching Skill4Ltu.
for akizuki’s birthday;
we used to cook fresh fish on the birthdays of our cats, watching them eat it is great entertainment too 🙂

Jingles: “[Anno 2205] It’s actually really good”
Anno fans: “Nonononononoooooo”
He should try Anno 1800. VERY strongly enjoyed this one.
@Tobias Reinhold Or the 1701, I find this one to be the most accessible to new comers. And it won’t make your eyes bleed like the 1602
What is wrong with 2205?
@camoon874 Anno 2205 is very simplistic compared to all other Anno games. A lot of the stuff you do is menial busywork without a lot of thought required. This is all relative and subjective based on the other games in the genre and series, not to mention your own expectations and aspirations for a game like this, but if you are a fan of the series or the genre you’ll probably enjoy other titles more.
I haven’t played any of the Annos but from what I’ve heard 2205 is like the Hoi4 of Annos
Be careful not to choke on your aspirations, Salt miner

That Legal Eagle dude lost all my respect when he defended Captain Marvel and said she was justified in crushing the hand, stealing the jacket and the bike from some dude, because he “assaulted” her when touching a newspaper she had in her hand.
If that is actual law in the USA, then US law isn’t worth the paper it is printed on. I suspect though the guy is full of shit.
