- In this challenge the tallest planet in Stellaris, Babel, will have to be enough to defeat an Unbidden crisis 100 years early! In the name of the Holy Jeff Imperium we will try to defeat the galaxy and the very gods themselves.
The Grand Architect wills it!
Lets dive in.

I like to imagine the Jeffians are really technical about "setting foot on other planets" to the point where they'll visit alien worlds and it is perfectly fine so long as they're always stepping on a carpet or wearing shoes or something lmao
Or just ride a hoverboard or something. It's scifi, bending rules is easy
@@exantiuse497 "bring in the flying fat man" - every civ right before Jeff takes over.
the most beaureaucratic race for sure
Reminds me of Pirates of the Caribbean 3 where Davy Jones can’t walk on land so they put buckets filled with water around his feet

I like the idea that the only reason any Jeffians colonized off Babel and thus were turned into vassals was Jeff II finding a legal loophole with Jeff I's original laws and doctrines.
No, the people that moved there were heretics/nonbelievers who wanted out of the planet. They were excommunicated but not abandoned so their colony was kept as a vassal
Just like Animal Farm

Jeff: starts building sandcastle.
The rest of the galaxy: we will help you!
I hope new Crisis are added in future. Maybe even some non-combat crisis to really mess with the meta a bit, like a Galactic Famine or Energy Drain that essentially crashes every economy in the Galaxy at the same time, forcing Empires to either downscale rapidly, have resource wars or try to collectively figure out a science solution.
You should suggest adding crises on Paradox forums, though I am not sure how downsizing would improve economies.
Could be neat, and maybe empires that fall to the non-combat crisis become hostile crisis zombie empires of some sort. Like a big galactic plague/virus or something.
I want to see a Crisis inspired by the Yuuzhan Vong from Star Wars.
Maybe a spy crisis? They could get new stuff like compromising fleets or causing revolutions. Add on a way to make it look like your fleets are other empire’s and cloaking tech and you could have good fun manipulating the galaxy from the shadows
@@RobBCactive as in like zhut5ing down buildings to save basic resources.
Ocean paradise, fuedal society. Nice.
Subjugation kinda making tall sort of viable now.
Still of course, easier and better to subjugate as a wide one.
I've been playing a wide/tall game where I release my sectors as loyal vassals of my own. Everyone obeys the crown! Basically I play wide at first but as I expand I release those sectors as vassals. I try to keep my core worlds healthy and strong. In one game I got extremely lucky and have 8 planets retained for myself while giving everything else away to my vassals. Sometimes they get a little disloyal but do they truly wish to test their luck against their betters? Join or die!
Also any empires I conquer I split up into multiple little vassals. I'm fully prepared to create a mini space HRE out of every planet I conquer going forward. The boons of playing tall while supplemented by vassal military (booned by the newly improved fleet follow system) makes it so I can maintain very strong fleet numbers.
@@renaldoawesomesauce1654 lots of incredible improvements tbh that makes this kind of thing so much better

Technically you could make it harder with 13 advanced AIs, but then you are pretty dead if any Total War empire spawn nearby :)
@claura Do as my username instructs please.
@@drinkme6803 The type of engagement and enlightenment we all come to the youtube comment section for. Thanks for your reply.
@@drinkme6803 Not if I report you first.
@@danielgloyd4529 The deleted comment was linking a shady dating website or something probably filled with viruses. These people need to be purged.
@@drinkme6803 ok I got it, makes a little more sense now.
The RP presentation of a challenge does sound like it could be an ongoing series, sounds neat!
Alien: "Who the hell are you Primitives creatures to tell us how to live!?"
The Imperium "My name Jeff"
I'm a new Stellaris player and I've been binge-watching your guides and playthroughs. These ones with the RP elements are really fun. Long live the Holy Jeff Imperium!

Montu your humour is so deadpan and subtle I fucking love it
I prefer raspberry

amazingly done, and amazingly presented. 10/10 will throw ship-mounted rocks at gods again.
Ah man, wouldn't it be wild if you could have a flooded Ecumenopolis? Reminds me of that planet in the Expanse, season 4.
The planetary diversity mod basically does that
You missed an opportunity to say, "And if you're enjoying this video, please, Jeff that like button."
I love doing OP Challenges, I especially enjoy Aspec's Clone Army + Livestock version of this
I’ve found it’s actually a bit easier with the new Gaia world start instead of clone army.
The difference in 9 districts and 2-3 building slots is very large.
Aspec's clone army + livestock + ratio
You know I've always found the hydroponic bays as a bit silly. Like if any of Stellaris' resources should be heavily tied to a planet it should be agriculture. I feel like it would make more sense to have space alloy foundries rather than space farms. Its easier to smelt thing in space than grow them.
Sadly it is less exciting to feed people than it is to build spaceships with guns and shields, so food needs to be the easiest resource to get
Not necessarily, think about it this way. In space your closer to the Sun so you're able to receive more energy from it. Plants convert CO2 to oxygen. Plants will not be restricted by gravity and therefore can grow as big as they feasibly can genetically. You'd be moving the production from planetside to the orbit making a cheaper to provide food to ships at a more reasonable cost and higher freshness. There won't be any microorganisms or pests to mess with the environment meaning less chance of crop failure. Honestly I can only see upsides.
Heat dissipation actually makes foundries super hard to pull off in space by comparison to growing potatoes for instance.
@@thesocialistsarecoming8565 That's got me thinking about orbiting space foundries that are super energy efficient due to losing little heat but the molten alloys have to be brought down to a cold planet to harden. Like a blacksmith dipping hot metal into water.
Frankly, I’m surprised that agriculture in general remains in existence in Stellaris. If we ever get to that point, we will certainly have the technology to directly produce synthetic food, no plants required.
Love the RP aspect and the Twilight Imperium references. Curious how this would have worked with the Life-Seeded origin instead of Ocean Paradise. It's difficult to compare but some back-of-the-napkin math:
- OP has lower housing usage and +10% growth, but LS has +38 carrying capacity to start
- OP has two crystal deposits and gases from nebula refineries, while LS gets one deposit of each strategic resource
- LS has a 3% higher bonus to all output, but OP gets another 10% (15% with hydrocentric) to basic resources. However, as we get later in the game that becomes less useful as we depend on subjects for minerals and energy, and make the homeworld an ecumenopolis.
- Hydrocentric means 3 more max districts, but it's the difference between 38 and 41 in the endgame which doesn't seem huge.
- We can't settle our LS pops to make subjects, but by the time we do that, we probably have migration treaties.
Wait, aren't LS are unable to form migration treaties?
@@VasiliyOgniov Pretty sure that life seeded doesn't have anything preventing migration pacts.
@@maxhoquekazi I mean, they are gestalts, aren't they? Or they just need to be fungoids/plantoids?
@@VasiliyOgniov life seeded can be any portrait and can be non-gestalt. Are you thinking of budding?
@@Tomnessish I'm sorry, I've been thinking about "Tree of Life" origin. Yeah, Life Seeded sounds quite nice for this challenge, to be honest, and even almost sounds like a legit strat
Ever since I saw your video featuring the Empire of Jeff, I can't see that species portrait as anything other than a "Jeff". Love your videos.
Loved this video. I really like how you created a mini-story for this game and then narrated how things went it made it really interesting. I would love to see you do something like this with the Gigastructures mod since it has many more crises options than vanilla.
I love that you have Twilight Imperium empires in Stellaris. I absolutely love that board game.
I assume you already know, but in case you don't: TI4 has a fantastic, free, version on Tabletop Simulator
WHOA!! I played Stellaris on console and had an okay time with it for a few months with it. I set it down and returned to WoW, as one does. But, THIS is the content i wanted from the game! your narration and RP elements made this engaging to listen to while i do my own grind. Definitely would support more content like this one :)
@Montu plays, I just wanted to say I love this style of video. If you wanted ideas for a other I might recommend a clone army tall game as a military megacorp and try to privitize galactic security with the private defense proposals in the senate. Defeating the crisis with nothing but private fleets would be a sight to see
Watched it as a movie. Great RP part and amazing Editing. Thanks for content created and would definitely enjoy more similar series coming. Took a break from Stellaris before, but with each video about to start to play again :) Thanks for good emotions
i love videos like this! would love to see you upload more of these kinds of gameplay videos :D all hail to holy jeff, architect of our destiny
Very entertaining vid. If you're looking to make more challenge vids (which, you should, this was great), I think the new vassalization mechanics would make an one planet + single system challenge viable in the long term.
Having tried it, with prudent use of diplomacy it was always viable until at least the end of the mid game (I have defeated the Khan in a single system + one planet challenge, but I was running a massive deficit and had to eventually disband my fleets afterward. Maintaining a fleet seems to be the most demanding aspect of that kind of challenge because of the energy requirements of late game fleets. Otherwise it's possible to tech rush and maintain a degree of stability without one). I would be very interested to see how you would tackle that kind of thing, personally.
I don't think it would be hard at all as almost all of your energy is only going to fleets with one planet so you could just have like 2 basic resource vassals mabey 3
That looked like a lot of fun, and loved your voice-over on the fleet battles. I'm going to try it out myself!
the story telling part of the video makes it so much more entertaining then other stelaris youtubers
That. Was. Amazing! Kudos to you, sir. That was a fantastic display of skill and humour. Nice.
Was planning a one planet run of sorts myself soon so I'm absolutely watching this.
Appreciate all your videos my dude. Keep em coming.
I love this video, it's fantastic. Very well made, and incredibly entertaining!
Great vid, thanks! Please keep em coming. Forever.
I love listening to the story of the Holy Jeff Imperium over and over again!
I'm surprised that I've watched your videos for over a year, and only just noticed that you're a fellow dane. Elsker dine videoer!
With megacorp and big galaxy it would be totally insane. You will get crazy resources from branch offices.
PS It would be nice in such videos to share what ancesion perks/traditions you have and building/holdings.
I like these types of videos! Good job 👍
sheesh, videos keep getting better and better!
Earth has been doing this challenge for a while now
Brilliant video, very funny, love the play through and the various emerging stories. However :-) you didn’t have the guts for x25 unbidden … a 20 odd million fleet power death stack is no joke, even for Jeff!!
I would love to see a hostile universe play-through, with the hardest difficulty, only advanced empires, as early as possible crisis, and a x2 or 3 tech cost. Then maybe a few friends and yourself just simply try to survive. My vision would be to have it so hard you would have to work together, but maybe you guys might fight each other as well.
I love your RP videos! They are amazing!
I loved this. Wonderfully put together and thought through! Any plans on doing a deep dive in mechanics you use to slingshot yourself ahead?
I haven't watched yet but the intro sounds so cool. Will edit when I get to the end
Edit: I was right that was a blast. Montu once and for all proving that wide has lost its power. The rule of two (or one) reigns supreme.
Do you perchance know where the intro is from?
@@waralo191 X-men Apocalypse I think
@@waralo191 yes it's X-Men Apocalypse
As a twilight imperium player I appreciate the Jol-Nar
This was really Fun, i would beg you for more videos like this one however i dont want to demand too much afterall this must ve been a lot of work.
Regardless of the Future i thank you for this Entertainment :D
Its really lovely to see how the small stellaris Memer has become the big Stellaris Memer xD
I like Montu's humour. :D keep up the good work, mate!
This is such a cool way to play utilising vassals and playing tall, am defo going to do this!!
I greatly enjoyed the video, thanks!
5 mins in and I really love the roleplay with choosing to grow all your food in space.
That was amazing. More of these please!!! ROLEPLAY! ❤️
Would you ever considering going through the proposals you can make in the Galactic Senate and how they may benefit certain playstyles? I tend to completely ignore most of them andI feel like I may be missing out on a big part of the game that can help me.
I have a galactic community resolution tier list in the works at the moment. That should help you out!
@@MontuPlays please what is the movie?
@@warbrain1053 which movie?
@@MontuPlays in the beginning of the video, the one from which the clip was taken
@@warbrain1053 X-Men Apocalypse, your welcome
Someone plays Twilight Imperium I see.
great video i loved the concept
The Jeff meme is the gift that keeps on giving
"Universities of Jol-Nar" ahhh I see you are a Twilight Imperium connoisseur as well
A really great video please keep up the good work
I have a feeling that I just watched a sci-fi blockbuster! That was incredible!
Really enjoying the twilight imperium races
Universities of Jol-Nar...a man of class.
Love it montu
I have always wanted to see this done.
I like this style, Montu. The edit down of a longer game with your key decisions rolled out with RP flair.
Comment offered as a sacrifice to the Algorithm. :)
I love these longer game videos.
I unwittingly did this challenge for a huge chunk of my second playthrough after picking the ring homeworld and not fully understanding how tech could have relieved my pain.
I love you got so many of the same sci-fi species in your videos that I recreated myself too in Stellaris, though I am surprised the Primes of Dyson Alpha aren't a devouring swarm called MorningLightMountain :P
I'm worried that only you and I caught that reference. They're like...NICE in this, and not pathologically genocidal, you know? It's weird.
Frameworld when?
That was enjoyable, thanks!
I’ve seen a video where a dude survived this very challenge for so long because they were subterranean with a planetary shield and something else that lowered the orbital bombardment challenge so much they lasted like 30 years against every person trying to kill them including a crisis
haha, loved the Twilight Imperium reference, man it's been so long since I last got to play a game of TI...
Watching this was simultaneously entertaining and ego boosting. Good show.
Epic. Good stuff
As soon as I saw feudal society and xenophile I knew this was just going to be the rolling subjugation cheese wheel.
I love when you make this vids, I usually have the attention spam of a fleeting acuatic, yet you manage to keep me here. What's your secret?
It was very entertaining. You could have made emperor Jeff do the end of the cycle crisis as a nice way to wrap everything up
Love the twilight imeprium references.
Inspired me to try this; Surprisingly fun and strong. One planet to rule them all..
I love thel ittle easter Eggs and references. Seeing the Primes from Dyson Alphs gave me an immediate holup moment :)
Hi i'm a brand new stellaris player who recently found your channel and have been coming your tier lists as I try to figure my way through this game. Do you have a beginners tips/guide video you've made or is it something you've thought of making? i'd love to see your break down on pitfalls to avoid and ways to thrive into the midgame. Thanks for your content it's been very helpful.
This is making me wanna play a one system megacorp. Habitats are acceptable, mostly for increasing trade value and maintaining alloys and rare resources, and seeing just how tall I can make it.
This is the proper way to cover Stellaris stories. 😎
Been playing this challenge my entire life
Can't wait to play "Hearts of Jeff 4" and "Knights of the Crusader Kings". Thank you Montu! 😊
“When you strike a god, a god strikes back.” I dont know why but that gave me chills.
Montu, pleasant surprise to see Morning Light Mountain.
This is so good I’m gonna watch it a second time 😅 and then I’m going to probably watch it a third as i attempt to do this 🤣
Great! Trying something of that...
Now make Jeff into a Chosen One. The true immortal emperor!
Thanks for the video.
Ah, loved the Eternal Empire from SWTOR references at the end
A Glorious game! Truth and justice are allies of the grand architect Jeff
Hi Montu! I was wondering, since you finished ship design then starbase/defence platform design could be next.
What about a one system challenge where you can build habitats, but can't expand outside your system - we could call it the no FTL playthrough
If you choose sol as your starting system that's very viable
No FTL Challenge - you can’t even send Science Ships out
@@lewiswood1437 Unity probably works as well, in terms of planet numbers for habitats
@@fastjimmy6167 you make it sound so tempting
I've gotten some good spawns so totally doable
That was amazing!
A one-planet challenge and *not* taking nonadaptive? It's literally free when you're spending the entire game on your homeworld. It also makes good roleplay for why it's a one-planet challenge.
Ah yes, a subsidiary of a non-corporate empire, thanks Paradox!
Fun fact: you can also just build juggernauts in the GDF, it has no Juggernaut cap. Not really a great idea, but you can do it. You will need to create a design for them manually though.
Wait, what? the Unbidden AI is actually capable of using their Jump Drives?
Oh snap, This is such an awesome game.
Really liked the roleplay
Gives me a chuckle to think about you asking fkr subscribed and likes, while playing a clip of a planet getting cracked
0:15 best quote of the entire franchise. With an epic build up to it.
what's it from?
@@cynical6819 theres a reason I linked the time stamp
Jeffians ending creating Coruscant basically. Amazing story.
hell that story line tho very nice
absolute madman
The ocean faring cats had me.
