@@Ultrakillerism It's actually less preparation than you'd think and it also involves a bit of luck and skill. About 10% percent luck, 20% percent skill actually. And believe it or not you'll require precisely 15% percent concentrated power of will.

In Sims games, painters are broken. They get entertainment from painting and you get money from selling the paintings. A guide I found somewhere suggested having a painting troll in a closed-off basement away from your more "respectable" sims, but I say, make ALL your sims into painters who do nothing but eat, sleep, and paint. Over-saturate the market with painters? Impossible, we need even *more* painters!
Pretty much the same situation in Cultist Simulator. You can paint to get rid unwanted influences or put them in stasis. You can generate mystique to distract investigators to touching your infamy and generate evidence, or you can paint with infamy to put them in stasis for the duration. It also generate mad bank and occasionally let you create mind-numbing painting of elder gods for all your occult activities!
that is not a guide, that is one cruel Anon writing his greentext story about him having a slave in the basement. but then again, i can see how it is a guide.
And Samarkand one makes all children Highschool educated, which is OP if you’re doing lots of World Wars and Cold War vertical integration (which he was not)

@@420mralucard you make an interesting point, and really, despite being a UK citizen, it isn't up to someone who has a USA flag in their profile picture
When I did this in the beta a few months ago... time doesn't stop... what that basically means is... the world keeps advancing while the glorious nation of tropico still doesnt have running water. I Played colonial for a LONG time and when I finally did cross over into the "world wars" it was *1980* ... So yea, unless thats fixed its going to be pretty awkward to play beyond this point :P
I must say that I really find your Tropico 6 video's a right delight. Your reminders for me to top up on tea are never unappreciated. You sir, have gained my subscription.
I've watched a lot of people play Tropico from the original Tropico thru to Tropico 6 and this is the smoothest running one I have ever seen . most of the time as soon as you start the revolution the shit hits the fan but by staying with British government you solve all the problems very well done . now I know what to do when I play it stay in the fould and make shit loads of money .
I honestly thought that this was just how you were supposed to play the game. Keep going as long as possible to have the strongest possible economy set up before you're forced to advance ages. The big question though is does the crown slowly stop offering mandate extensions like in previous games? If they do just keep offering them forever, then this is mega-broken.
the problem in this game was that the economy doesnt work after the colonial era, dont know if its fixed but you couldnt keep up in money even using the most profitable efficiency exploits
You can just stay in the colonial era forever but you will only make about 1 or 2 millions dollars in total but using banks in the cold war era you can make billions of dollars in just a few years of ingame time
Wood Elves wouldn't be cheating. You have to take nearly all the map to get the Amber needed to win. Unless you were able to play the diplo game well enough to get it from allies. But they love to declare war on one another.
