Turns out nepotism was the best strategy all along - Dave from down at the servo will give you multiple generator districts worth of energy if he can bum a ciggy
I sometimes think of you and Ep3o as the Stellaris Mumbo Jumbo and Grian. And I gotta say, this is really giving me some 'Peace Love and Plants' vibes, really reinforcing that notion. I still want to see Environmentalists get a planet declaration that buffs Rangers further. Devs please.
I once met someone who claims to run an empire with Environmentalism, Warrior Culture, and Here There Be Dragons, and roleplayed it as a Monster Hunter/Tamer civilization.
"I am a Ranger. We walk in the dark places no others will enter. We stand on the bridge and no-one may pass. We live for the One, we die for the One..."
YEAAAAAH BABY, THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Edit: the amount of power i feel having been, from what i can see, the first one to suggest this challenge to Montu, is simply incredible
Very entertaining video as always Montu. Everyone loves a good tree hugging reeducation. Would love to see maximisation builds for certain resources like energy. minerals and alloys. We have all seen how effective trade can be but I want to know if it is possible to get over 30 alloys per pop or how much science a single pop can produce.
Would be more environmentalist if you used direct conquering or liberation wars, as subjugating doesn't make them environmentalist even if they are part of a thematically environmentalist federation
Honestly, this looks really fun if we replaced all menials with rangers and a blocker heavy build. However, what would really bring it together is like a starting planet which starts with fewer districts but many, MANY, more blockers. Maybe like Gaia seeders/ocean paradise size 30 but with like 15 blockers.
I wonder if being voidborne could make this unironically viable. All your resource production in space and planets are all there for people to laze around on. Think I'll give it a shot.
I noticed that you are deleting buildings by clicking delete and then yes. Did you know that you can do it a lot more faster? Just choose a building you want to delete, press delete on your keyboard and then hit enter.
When people always think of industry affecting/damaging the land but don't realize agriculture does the same. I remember someone talking about it with Frederick the Great and his efforts to increase potato production
You should have called your empire "extinction rebellion" it makes about as much sense, lmao! Very interesting video, montu. I think this is an interesting playstyle.
How about making a tutorial on how to fight against the fallen empires, in the way they are fallen empire and awakened empire? And talk a about the decadence that occurs over them.
So I'm not able to work out how your stability isn't tanked. I repeated the exact steps I see with destroying districts and such at the jump but the lack of housing makes my stability tank. Which leads to instant criminal jobs or huge CG deficit.
This is why I wish Catalytic Converters also affected Artisans, and the environmentalist galatic community tree actually boosted catalytic processing, making it to where an environmentalist/catalytic converter wasn't losing out on any alloy production, due to it being eco-friendly. Mix that with crusader spirit and plantoid, and you literally have the planet coming to life and fighting for itself.
It doesn't work like I hope it would. It is powerfull if you bombard the Homeworld of your first enemy and invade it with a dozent or more blockers but later in the game the AI removes the blockers quite fast so you get only worlds with 7 or 8 blockers. And very annoying is the fact that you need either a xenophile or pacifist ethic for the background so you can't bombard and invade primitives in the early game.
Hey Montu I got a interesting kinda challenge for you. That is to only expand using the fruitful partnership origins, no starbases or colonizing normally. Small galaxy with perhaps only 1-2 other empires but lots of primitives which should give you 10-20 years or so head start to get… something built up
Ain't no way Relentless Industrialists are that bad that you've resorted to farmers and rangers! I am sure you can crack the code on how make the Industrialists crazy powerful.
Ah yeah I remember now! The peace is Greenpeace is supposed to stand for Pacifism! I wonder how much real-life Green-Peace actually talks about global peace?
Environmentalist is definitely kinda weak outside of the CG upkeep. Personally I think the resource production should be the same a normal worker, and each ascension tier could add one more, allowing you to make worlds into the opposite of an ecu almost
What about Calamitous birth with Environmentalist? You could have habitability of lithoids without so many negative traits from invasive species. Also - more blockers on your planets.
This was great fun to watch. Would it have helped any to build Autochthon Monuments, for unity and naval power (and maybe make happy citizens happier?) Keep up the great work!
Ranger are actaully not that bad. There are 2 Things you need to know about them. They are workers! So slavery and governer worker bonusses apply to them, making it easy to get several 100% production bonuses. And more important there is a planetary decission to add blockers for 500 minerals!
@@lattekahvi1298 yes, you can use it as lon as you have free districts. But it creates the same blocker as the rangers lodge. So it will give you only additional jobs and 3 unity but it dosn't increase the the production of the rangers.
When you said farmers were environmentaly friendly, did you fail to take into consideration that some farmers use chemical fertilizers which are bad for the environment
"Green Peace International" *Martial Alliance* Is Montu trying to tell us something?🤔Maybe about how he's being strong-armed into making a video he didn't want to make? Nah...
- Gets nothing done by himself - Only exists because of the benevolence of others - Gets on the nerves of the whole neighbourhood with his bogus ideas - Truely believes that only he is right and noone else - Ignores any kind of efficiency or common sense - Still thinks he is the greatest dude around Congratulations Montu, you successfully roleplayed a terror.... erhm, Activist!

come back to the path of energy credit optimisation and yes this is a threat
So basically what you are saying is that you don't actually need pops in this game anymore. Interesting.
Turns out nepotism was the best strategy all along - Dave from down at the servo will give you multiple generator districts worth of energy if he can bum a ciggy
You dont need pops, you dont need more then 1 planet, you dont need anything couse you can have vassals and federation to work fore you.
He's probably on commandore

Ironically Canada is well known for its robust mining industry. Our 2 main exports are base resources from mining and education from our universities.
Certainly out here north west. Go far enough up and the only good paying jobs are extraction of natural resources.
Weirdly, Canada and Kyrgyzstan were the last big asbestos producers.
And holy shit, the tarsands oil pits are an ugly mess.
Same as Australia
Me spending 2 hours watching old gameplay videos of Montu yesterday only for him to upload today. Thanks Montu.
LOL, Utube finally shills me an ad and its to Join the Marines whom I got out of in the 80's!
I need my adblocker to work again.
Go back. Clearly they need you to come out of retirement for one last job.
The Roleplaying is strong with this one.
Surprised that you didn't push environmental resolution. It fits perfectly for this roleplay
Every time you said unanimously, I had the presidium scene from Death of Stalin in mind. Then you went and played the same scene.
"Our activists are an invasive species." Truer words have never been spoken.
That start the game with basically importing consumer goods from Chi...galactic market
Very serious and well thought out statement (sarcastic)
Plus, they have the quarrelsome and unruly traits. lol
Crisis took one look at Green Peace and decided they wouldn't bother since their work was already done.
"No intelligent life detected"
Rangers lead the way!
Ya
Would you like to know more? 😅
These are park rangers bro.

Montu been talking to the New York 14th District Representative too much.

Hmm, I was wondering if the new seed bombardment ability would work well with rangers, and that question remains unanswered!

Surprised the Fishing industries havent come knocking yet.
I tried an environmentalist run, trying to save every single natural blocker in the galaxy. It's impossible.

Environmentalism only. Montu are you ok?
Can’t harm wildlife if there is no xeno left to harm them!
I love environmentalist civic, it's great for a little RP, i love solarpunk.
This is a bit too orwelian for my humor xD

Funnily, I initially came to your channel because of your galactic community meme video roughly when it came out or a couple of months later.
Having other countries do the dirty mining for you as vassals then claiming you’re a puppy loving environmentalist, lol

Time to cook!
Somewhat disappointed that the Like shoutout wasn't "Range the crap out of that like button." Love the challenges.

Shouldve went for Gaia seeders to make all worlds into Gaia worlds! True environmentalism is leaving a place better than when you got there!

Green Peace was the Wrong Name. You should have gone with Space Shepherd, after the mediocre terrorists.
I did not realize you could have more than 3 leaders in government positions.....
it seems like it fits in with the challenge I feel
Unruly, weak and quarrelsome.
Yeah that sounds like the Greens.
Nothing is better than having more farmers 😂
Is it just me or is this video weirdly zoomed in? (great stuff as always of course!)
Green Peace Inter…national ? Come on Montu you letting me down on the RP, what about InterStellar ?
I assume that Calamitous Birth wasn't used with this to add blockers because it doesn't work?
Can confirm that it doesn't. At least, I didn't see that the blockers from the meteorites granting anything special.
@@gogeta667 Tragic.
Rangers are better than farmers at least. Seriously they carry a lot of my food production whenever I play environmentalist.
Now do this without vassals. ^^
Im suprised you didn't have a faction called "just stop districts" 😂
Lol
"Our activists are an invasive species." lol
Wait, was this strategy actually... good?
Its literally vassal-swarming, vassal swarming is always op
The main take away here is... You don't need pops lol
This is more like GreenWar, amirite?
Canadia.
God I felt that in my _soul_.
Jobs tier list when?
"Green Peace International"

Is Montu trying to tell us something?🤔Maybe about how he's being strong-armed into making a video he didn't want to make? Nah...
Code Blue!? Did you have to change the bulb?

Greenpeace, or how to crash an empire 😅
I like how your activists are constantly brandishing a pheasant in our general direction. That or perhaps some manner of space chicken.
The late game performance in Version 3.9.3. is abysmal.
Unruly, weak, and quarrelsome... If the recycled shoe fits lol.
Probably a dumb question but how are you able to put 90 battleships into one fleet?
Federation fleet
Why no spiritualist ethic? Seems like a perfect fit
Haven't watched it yet, but I have a feeling the absurdly long "expand nature preserves" build time is gonna bone this run.
