Hey guys, just a quick announcement!

I'm looking to do a 100K Celebration Stream on Twitch on the 5th April! Here is a link to my channel if you'd like to follow: www.twitch.tv/vulcanhdgaming

Hopefully I'll also find time to make a special video. There will be more details to come on my Discord: discord.gg/BNBcVPF I'll sort it all out when I'm back from holiday on the 11th.

That also means there will be no streams this week, sorry, but plenty of videos! Thank you all for the support. See you all soon!

The channel hit 100k SUBSCRIBERS! Absolutely awesome. When I started my channel in 2012 I dreamt of hitting the 100k. My channel was very different back then but also remarkably similar (if you look at the Wargame videos). I decided to focus on the tactical real time strategy niche since then and I'm so happy for the support I've received along the way. Sharing my favourite games, introducing more people to them and finding people to play them with has been incredible. I hope this year the community can grow to even higher heights!

Thank you so much for the support over the years! Onwards to more content!

Happy New Year everyone!!

This year has been crazy managing to crush my peak views in 28 days, not once, but twice. 1.4 Million!

It would not be possible without your support so thank you everyone from viewers to those who support me monetarily!

Next year let's hit 100k Subs and keep RTS as relevant as ever.

Thank you and may you all have a fantastic New Year!

Which side you would like me to play in the largest and longest WARNO campaign, Highway 66?

Dear viewers,

With the completion of The Left Hook campaign it's time to decide between NATO or PACT for what is likely to be the longest campaign yet, Highway 66! Let me know which side you'd like to see by voting in the poll.

Just want to say, thanks for the awesome support and welcome to those of you who have joined of late due to the Sea Power content! More Sea Power to come and for those wondering I will of course be making content for Broken Arrow with the upcoming beta on November 12th!

Hope you are all doing well and continue to enjoy the upcoming content. If you have any questions feel free to ask on this post and I'll try and respond when I can.

Cheers,

Vulcan

Dear Viewers!

Time for another update, this time in regards to my streaming.

I've been trialing streaming on both YouTube and Twitch simultaneously over the past few months and it appears over time that YouTube is promoting my streams less and less. This also appears to be affecting my video content so I've come up with a new plan which is somewhat similar to how I used to do things.

From now on I'll primarily be streaming on Twitch, using good games of Steel Division and Warno from those streams to create compelling replay commentaries for the YouTube channel like I've always done. However, whenever there is a new update expect there to be a simultaneous stream on YouTube as well. This way if you aren't a frequent live stream viewer you won't miss out on the new content and the VOD will also be available afterward.

This plan intends to keep my Twitch and YouTube content separate and less diluted with a more professional and high quality focus on YouTube. Twitch will be more interactive and casual as usual. They are great fun so make sure to come along and check it out if you haven't already.

With all that said, my regular Twitch streams start at 8pm GMT+1 and are scheduled as follows:

Mon -
Tue - EVE ONLINE
Wed - WARNO
Thu - VARIETY
Fri -
Sat - VARIETY (SD2 or WARNO if there is new content)
Sun - STEEL DIVISION 2

Also, starting from Tuesday next week I will be doing midday streams. These won't necessarily be consistent but if you'd like to know and be notified when I go live make sure to join my Discord here: discord.gg/BNBcVPF

Massive thank you to everyone for the support! Appreciate all those of you who have turned up to the YouTube streams, it has been a great help.

I hope you all continue to enjoy the content,


Vulcan.

Dear viewers, here is a "Quick" update which should answer some frequently asked questions:

When will I put up WARNO campaign videos?
- The plan is now to release the start the Fulda Gap campaign on the NATO side starting Saturday!

Will I cover the SDL tournament?
- Yes, I've been speaking with Protoss (the organiser) and the plan is also to cover the semi finals and finals over the next week or so. Look forward to more tournament casts!

Will I cover more Broken Arrow?
- Yes of course. Currently there is no game to play, if you are seeing content from other creators it is because they have excess footage from the alpha playtest. I do not personally have anymore footage to share. From what I have heard, the next playtest will be around September.

Will I cover Men of War 2?
- Yes, I plan to release some gameplay videos from multiplayer in the coming weeks. Singleplayer campaigns are unlikely to be covered for now.

How are things with the flood?
- This week I'm moving back into the place I was before which will help my productivity massively. Things aren't really fixed yet however, insurance is being slow but I'll be moving out to another permanent residence in a couple of months. From there, things should be back to normal soon after.

When can I catch your streams?
- I am now committed to streaming Steel Division Sunday and Warno Wednesday on YouTube as well as Twitch, you may have seen them already. These start after 8pm GMT+1 and last three to four hours. If you can't catch me live, you can find the VODs under the Live tab on my YouTube channel. If you can make it and own Warno or Steel Division 2, feel free to jump in the games and join in! Hope to see you there.

Full schedule is as follows:
Monday - No Stream
Tuesday - Eve Online / Variety (Twitch)
Wednesday - Warno Wednesday (YouTube/Twitch)
Thursday - Variety (Twitch)
Friday - No Stream
Saturday - Variety (Twitch) > Side note: will be on both platforms if either SD2 or Warno.
Sunday - Steel Division Sunday (YouTube/Twitch)

What happened to the Total War channel?
- If you didn't know I do have a Total War channel here: ‪@VulcanTotalWar‬ I have not abandoned this channel. Originally I got burnt out of Warhammer and since then events have prevented me from having the time to commit to those campaigns. The plan is to get back on track after my move to my old place, but unfortunately I cannot make any promises. Any further updates will be posted on that channel.

If you have any other questions I'll try and respond to any replies to this post and/or edit them in! Massive thank you for your support in these testing times. Hope you are all enjoying the content!

Dear viewers, my house was flooded.

About a week ago in a pretty perfect set of circumstances, sea defences near me were broken by a storm and over a meter of flood water crossed mine and my families land, up to a meter and a half in some places. Everyone, including myself are ok. Roughly half a meter managed to get in my property and unfortunately my single floor home was devastated, all my furniture, flooring and appliances are going to have to be replaced. Thankfully my parents live next door, and whilst they were also affected, I've been able to move in there temporarily. You may have heard from me sooner if it weren't for my phone being dead and unrecoverable since the week prior to the flood. I haven't been able to log into anything. That being said, we were without toilets for 2 days, electric for 6 days and we still have no gas or hot water.

Since the flood I've been hard at work with my family and friends trying to recover what we can and gutting and throwing the rest. Needless to say this has been a tough time and it's unlikely I will be committing to making videos or streaming again for up to a week I imagine as the clean up is still ongoing and will be for a while. My computers were saved which is how I'm able to get this message to you, but many other things need replacing including even our cars. The damage is almost unfathomable.

The saving grace is everyone and my pets are ok and insurance should cover some of the cost. My family and friends coming together and helping out has been so great. Always cherish your loved ones for they are the rock (or should I say buoyancy aid) in tough times. A huge thank you to my girlfriend who has been and always is nothing short of amazing.

This should explains my absence, even in the wake of the new Steel Division 2 DLC which I hope you are all enjoying. Thank you for your patience and support in these testing times. I'll be back at work bringing more awesome content as soon as I feel able.

To My Viewers,

I'm going away for a week from this weekend, 17th June. Having had the copyright problems in May that stressed me to the max, halved my income and killed my motivation, then followed by having Covid for the first couple weeks of June, the timing isn't great. Thankfully Covid has recently passed but I know videos have been few and far between. Unfortunately there also won't be any videos while I'm away as my throat and voice are not co-operating after covid. I'm going to take the time to rest and recover and when I get back I'm hoping to get back to the daily schedule. Expect to see new content from the 26th June.

This has been incredibly frustrating for me, I really enjoy making videos and when I can't it makes me so restless and anxious. I'd like to seriously thank the support on Patreon, it massively helps in times like these to have that dedicated backing. I'd also like to thank all of you who support me monetarily on YouTube and Twitch! Of course a big thanks to all you viewers, who by just watching my content support what I do. Thank you.

If you'd like more frequent updates for my channel and notifications for my stream where you can come chat to me live, make sure to join my Discord. Links can be found on the about page, or on the banner of my channel page.

Thank you for your patience,
See you soon,
Vulcan
