Polytopia - Guide To Movement & Roads 

Forgot to mention, some units have the "Fly" ability, which means they can freely move over any terrain, but can't get movement bonuses from roads. I know movement in Polytopia is a bit of a difficult subject; if you still have any questions feel free to ask

Use your big brain 🧠 🤣

ngl i dont even calculate anything i just put roads down in the general vicinity of where i want to go and it usually works out

Another specific quirk of the movement rules is that Aquarion amphibians and tridentions can only move 1 tile on land without roads.

Before I found your channel, I though roads was just nothing but connecting cities and that having a large movement range was because you are in your territor. After this and being subcribed to your channel for many months now, I really understand how useful and strategic roads were. This is such an amazing video

roads are a balanced tech with no overpowered synergies whatsoever :P

it took me so long to figure out roads, if i had this video like two months ago it would have saved me so many games

Yaddak essentialy

I would love to see a video on what unit is best for each type of map and size

Hey GullYY Can you explain here or make another video on movement in water/ocean. I understand how different naval units have different movements. However, do the port connections decrease movement point usage and how can boats sometimes seem to move through each other and other-times limit how far they can move? Also, if boats do block each other, is there a way to tell if there is a dingy/cloak-boat nearby by looking at how far you can move on water?

Hey Gully You should discuss the matter with Knights, They get nerf, but in a way they got Buffed alot. Knights are still a strong unit, but now they have the ability to kill other knights!!! I found this to be infuriating because atleast in one of my game, my adversary just spam them, and I cant counter them. Ussually when one spam knights and the other also spam knights, it practically becomes a swordman spam vs swordman spam but with increased movement. But now, it feels like a race to get the visions of the enemy territories, because if one side is blinded and isnt able to see the enemies territories, their knights cant do anything, but the enemy can just spam as many knights as possible as long as they are just behind the other side's view. And when you are trying to amass knights, they could just send one knight and kill all of them.

6:20 nope, probably not quite. What about going from ice onto land and the other way around when you have polarism? Is ice just treated as all roads when you have polarism?

I didnt understand the last example; why does moving from the city to the road consume 1 movement point? dont cities count as roads so it would consume 0.5 movement points?

Mm I think a cool thing to know that the shaman can power up other units (in Cymanti at least) and so if you don’t have use of shaman, don’t skip a turn without using this feature. One more thing to be aware of: if you upgrading the city and choosing the super unit - make sure around there’s enough space, cuz it can replace you’re current unit in the spot. And here’s my question: can someone explain: when breaking peace treaty . The side that breaks looses all units in the enemy territory but not vice versa? Thank you whoever responds 😄

Gee, this could've saved me in that 1v1 I had with you a few weeks ago

Thanks for great roads and tile’s movements explanation. For cymanti, what king of road mycelium does produce? This make a 3x3 road square for each Mycelium? Visually there is an automatic white road that connect two Mycelium, how this is produced and does it impact movements? And if this produce roads, Mycelium cost 5 stars and heal near units too, roads cost 2 stars each and don’t heal ! Is this overkilled?

There is nothing in the game that explains anything

for some reason when i move a cloak next to an enemy city sometimes its dash ability does not work

You are the best

HALLO

EPIC VIDEO MOMENT Nice work!

do one about the late game strategies, when both camps are on full strength

God bless everyone and have a good day,,

The skill gap is real

Gamer moment, certified with beans

Good grief. Roads and Movement are far more complicated than the entire Diplomacy update

Him: "Movement in polytopia is a difficult subject" Me who play civ 6: :i am 3 move ahead of you

Can i play this game in co-op mode with a friend vs other people or bots?

Me as a yadakk player who just saw ROAD in the title and clicked

I was waiting for your video ....

Can you make a video on how to counter Cymanti?

Thanks for the guide

Why roads are cool!

Can you explain damage, health and shield please

Very good

Asked in like 2 videos for this kind of video and here it is, thank you very much!
