Skipping 30 Turns In Polytopia Makes Me Want To Cry... 

Try to pick luxidoor next time. They get more stars from the beginning

I swear bro, 900 tile maps with all tribes on crazy are only difficult because of the sheer amount of resources your body needs to pump into your brain to keep it from shutting down by turn 50.

That 40-unit knight chain was a sight to behold Edit: After watching the video, I can confidently say that I would never attempt this challenge on crazy difficulty. I’ll stick to doing it on easy.

900 tiles maps are fun when you inagine the lore and world building of every city and situation. But yeh the worst part of polytopia is when you know you already won but have to finish off the IAs

TURN 40: It baffles me that the AI will STILL train a cloak in a city with an ennemy unit right beside it ready to kill it. Same thing for a warrior hitting a defender while staying in its city with 1 hp.

-lost 190 units -still won 81% of battles -Gully's units took part in 1000 battles

I play 900-tile drylands maps for fun, although rarely against only bots. On a map that size, the game easily goes on for long enough that every surviving tribe is at or near a full tech tree. As an added bonus, that means that, in the early game, you have to choose between achieving short-term gains and ensuring the very, very long-term success of your tribe. Once we enter the ultra-late game, the real fun begins: optimising small-scale tactical battles to achieve large-scale strategic objectives and backing it all up with a massive logistical system (read: knights on roads from the most distant cities). Finding ways to breach a determined defence or break a bloody stalemate is a lot of fun. It's a puzzle, but without the cooldowns and ads and microtransactions that accompany so many mobile puzzle games.

The best 900 tile maps are just water worlds and archipelagos because with battleships, lower village density, and open seas, there's less unit density and less of the slow tile-by-tile crawl forward. EDIT: the most exciting part of large tile games are the midgame, where you just reach the point where you become the major power of the field. After the point when victory is just a matter of mop-up, the game grows stale.

"I'm going to skip the first 30 turns and try to win. Not sure if it's even possible" Proceeds to steamroll the entire Map in the next 30 turns.

Hey gullyy, I just wanted to say thank you for bringing a little joy into my life. I'm experiencing some rough times but your videos always make me feel a little better.

Fun game: Take a shot each time gullyy says: "We got some cities here- no, we got more"

It's more bearable if you do continents, because you can siege different continents and spice things up

The way he so calmly discuses his plans for action about going to war against the other factions sounded so assured and steadfast like Winston Churchill. I’m also really high

watched till the end, almost fell asleep. Thanks for all the work putting this together! Don't take any more challenges like that! :D

50 minute video? Hell yeah

The end just summarizes all massive endgames for 900 tile maps: I see unit- I kill unit. I see city- I take city. I see bot- bot dead

Message of the video: after 48 rounds, gully has turned into gelly

Seeing the size of his capital from all the road connections at the end was just too good 😆

That knight chain was SOOOO good. I recently got into polytopia and have been loving ur content. Keep it up! 🙃

I love playing 900 tile lake maps, usually with around 5-6 enemies. Usually, I stretch 1 game across like a week for mental sanity purposes but I love the development of multiple independent fronts. My main doctrine revolves heavily around knights, mind benders, defenders, and catapults. I try to keep my troop deaths as low as possible and usually wind up with around 97% battle stats at the end of a game, which is why mind benders are used. Additionally, having mind benders existing around cities means I can convert daggers from cloak spam with 0 losses and no pop cap reduction. I still feel as if ai cloak spam is absolutely ridiculous as some matches where I thought I might lose I actually won because AI abandons defense or combined arms attack for cloak spam which is solved by deforestation and knights or mind benders in mountanous terrain

Your knight can become a veteran and then attack, which increases the number of units it can kill

I played a 900 tile map with 16 bots on crazy and I spent over 7-10 hrs on it. I also did it on continents and got the smallest and worst continent. It was fun but each turn was like 20 minutes(I think it was 70 turns or so). It was also pre alliances so I couldn’t just focus on 1 tribe and had to fight practically all at once.

Gamer Moment Gullyy! I love seeing you do challenges like these! I will always end up coming back to these videos over and over again!

Damn after coming back to this game after two years im really surprised that there are still recent videos of your channel hats off and i respect the grind

10 months later and this is still the most epic Polytopia game I’ve ever seen

Oh bro the cloak invasion is so funny😂 How about another challenge where you play on 900 tiles on crazy difficulty without using knights? I can't almost certainly do it but I'm very curious if pro players like you can manage it.

Awww yisssss. A 50 minute video. Perfect after an extra long work week. Thanks Gully.

Honestly I really enjoyed watching this one lol thanks for the great content as always man

He should skip 10 turns in multiplayer, it’d be so funny

God really said: You get a 50 min Gullyy video BUT it is all just daggers!

we do a little cloaking

That... that knight chain. Holy mother of god.

Would really like to see a totally unedited vid. That would be so long but so enjoyable 😁

Yooo make elden ring vids! Id love to see more content from you, and its not all about skills!

I'd love to see a Polaris online gameplay sometime again :) been a while since we've seen the power of frost ^^

Yooooo GulYY how r u doin? I just started watching you like 2 days ago and already seen all your videos! Yur cool, keep it!

Gully! Ur videos are always amazing and so entertaining.

Gully: 900 tiles maps are barely bearable. Me, Who always plays 900 tile maps: *Are you sure about that?*

8:59 crazy that you got these in 8 turns

a challenge idea, you can only use ranged attacks (if you use the ice tribe freezing units is allowed)

There should be a point on 900 tiles where the AI ‘declares’ and you win

This video is amazing❤❤🎉

Man I'm just watin for the next massive multiplayer match! This will be so intense!

This is the first ever game where Strategy has been actually useful.

A 50min video of Gully, that sounds awesome!

Great video 👌

100 ways of self torture - and we only saw the cut version! 😳 that already hurts! What challenge was that? Playing polytopia as painful as possible? Accomplished 👍🏻🤣

omg ive been playing a while now and its only on this day that i find out you can put roads outside of you borders lol

900 tiles is a lot more fun if its not flatlands

In my opinion, Mind Bender is the way to go, Keep him safe and play him right and suddenly you have doubled the size of your army.

This was exhausting. Would be a lot more fun with many other tribes and diplomacy.

A 50 MINUTE GULLY VIDEO?? THIS IS TRULY A BLESSING I GENUINELY WANT TO MAKE SOME POPCORN FOR THIS

I love how he's seriously named Rydon 😂 That's like if I named myself Ligma

the knight was a one man army lol

Need a part 2

" *Why would anyone put themselves through this pain?* " " *I highly recommend trying this challenge* "

I tried the challenge, i got at least 3 40+ knight chains, but my bots were also spaming archers and mindbendes along with cloaks.

4:02 The leader Bozu laughs at your puny excuse of a tribe. THAT MAKES ME WANNA PUNCH'EM

the description made me laugh SO HARD

aint no way I did this and commented about it on some video back in the dark ages but those were such different times polytopia has become so crazy

Best 50 minutes of my life

As a mobile player who only has access to the free tribes and plays pass and turn 900 tiles wirh 16 bots on crazy mode, i can agree

Wanna see you do this challenge with vengir... goodluck

It would be epic if u did a this unit only ep ngl

Bro this video is amazing hahahhahaa for real!!

I will say that I don’t face off against Crazy Bots when playing 900 tile maps. And I don’t play on landlock, I like the fun of continents

I have a challenge idea. The pacific challenge, where your goal is to make as many peace deals as possible (playing against 9 bots). Play with the aimo tribe and don't attack any troops, the only case that attacking is allowed is using only attack using the hypnotist

Try this with elyrion dragons are super nice in the very late game

polytopia challenge - ONLY USE CLOAKSS!!!

THE DESCRIPTION XD

Hmm…. big coincidence GullYY, I tried this 2 weeks ago as well

I watched the entire thing, what am I doing with my life 🤣

How do you tell where the cloak is before you see it?

Yoooo I would love your elden ring commentary

o7 that knight.

I once survived 100 turns without leaving my capital. Basically I got a defender, city walls on my capital and hoped that the bots won't kill me for 100 turns. Then I proceeded to kill everybody. Idk, sounds like a good video idea.

Gully you are a gem

I love these

THE CLOAKS ARE COMING.

there are cloaks in my walls

900 continents is my favourite.

When I started playing Polytopia I played 900 tile maps with 4 bots. I don't even know how the fuck I did it.

THE CLOAKS ARE COMING

watched it at the same time i tryed it, its fun

Next do it with Cymanti please

Aw heck nah Gully turned into Jully

guerrilla warfare

Yo I was at my cousin's (European) football practice and got a notification on my phone that said that skin pack 3 released.

this game was an actual disease wtf

I want bigger lol it’s fun cause it’s like fighting in multiple fronts but with ocean makes it more fun

I Have A Challenge To You What The Challenge. You Have To Clear Domination But You Must Fight With 4 Enemy And You Must Use Polaris That A Challenge😅😅😅

they should really make the ai more difficult

The cloaks are coming

"Aha!" XD

THE CLOAKS ARE COMING THE CLOAKS ARE COMING

Just get diplomacy and friend both lol

I only play 900 tile maps 😅

Pro video

I watched this whike video while getting clapped by crazy bots lmao

_You just blink and there is an army_ GullYY, 2023
