My WORST campaign in 4000 hours

EU4 Najd can be one of the hardest starts in EU4. We can get the EU4 Jihad achievement and that's what we're trying to do today... but there's a problem. Perhaps I should have consulted an EU4 guide or EU4 tutorial for this one because I almost go bankrupt as well as having the worst RNG possible and I'm pretty sure the AI was cheating. Regardless, if you want to see more of this campaign, make sure to like this video and subscribe for more EU4 Laith!

Like the video if you think I should power through the agony and try to get the achievement. But also I'd be okay with extinguishing this dumpster fire of a concept. Suffering is inevitable with it.

Laith : "I won't restart"
Paradox : "Say no more" (-3 stability and 0 good events 7 years in)

[thelegendarybreadbuttera.]

I like how laith dislikes restarted constantly, he really shows adaptability and masochism

[GhostJohnson]

PLEASE CONTINUE THIS SERIES. I’ve been wanting to see it for years!

[EvilPhonzell]

reminds me of a hoi4 game I played 2 years ago. My friends played Germany and Hungary. I played Ethiopia (UMC Submod, back when it was several mods). It was absolutely agonising. When I could finally invade the British, they fucking reinforce meme'd me on almost every fucking tile, I was drunk and ended up crying. My friends have screenshots of my mental breakdown as we all had webcams on. Honestly, still the best night of my life.

[recklesspotato]

At this moment im at 330/363 achievements so far, with more than 5000 hours into the game, and I can wholeheartedly say the "Jihad" achiev had me onto the verge of madness the most out of them all. Watching you get through the same pain is soothing the trauma, the sheer quantity of bad events this country gets is turned to 11 .

[asdfasdf-ddlk]

This is truly, utterly horrendous. More please c:

Tiwi has been real quiet since this dropped

Also EU4 players:

[yoshman]

Please continue this campaign. It'll be all the more satisfying when you get the achievement.

[Primitive]

35:43 what little sanity Laith had left disappeared in this moment

[sir_kyber]

I empathise with you. Najd is a miserable experience.

[Shaman]

It's unironically pleasing and comforting to see that my favorite EU4 streamer/player does save scumming as much as I do

12:44 Yallah come on! Just rise up! said Lawrance

[anora]

Laith: “With one rule: no restarting.”

Laith 0.001 seconds later: “I never said I wasn’t going to restart.”

[CandleLover]

No achievement in eu4 has vexed me more than jihad. I have done a wc run as Orissa, hisn kayfa, and even ghazimukh (didn’t finish). There is something unbelievably cursed about Najd and I don’t know what it is.

On my best attempt, I conquered most of the mountains in the Middle East, but the old ottoman siege ability blew my threw eight mountain forts. I couldn’t even win attritional battles on rampart mountain forts. One of the only games I have ever rage quit tbh.

The sunk-cost fallacy explained in eu4

[IamCogs]

Haasa is an absolute nightmare to fight early, I usually put them off a little just because of the level 3 coastal fort.

Laith: "I won't restart"

Also Laith: "To be fair I never said I wasn't going to restart"
