The minimum they can cost is 21 dollars if you set the cost to manual, so then you can just make a “dark peasant” and destroy everything, but it’s probably against the rules
@@coltonbates629 lol they definately got tedious at the end, but it was still fun figuring each level out. Glad to hear you subscribbled, welcome to the channel!
Thanks! I don't remember exactly how long this whole challenge took, but I remember most levels being no more than an hour with some taking multiple hours.
Yeah, that could be interesting but would be really hard to know for sure what the minimum is. The upside to this video was that I knew 30 was always the theoretical minimum
Imagine training for years to become a big strong ice archer with your fellow vikings, and you get sent to your first battle, and it's just some average joe, who THROWS ALL YOUR MEN INTO THE STRATOSPHERE, AND THEN STARTS BEATING THE CRAP OUT OF YOU WITH THEIR BARE FISTS!!!
From the description - no I have not seen one unit only TABS, how the hieck. But I will gladly continue to consume this glorious channels content with my eyes right the next morning since my brain cannot handle watching videos with actual logic and thinking in them without exploding (at midnight)
@@BarelyAlec And good luck with your youtube channel (you seriously deserve a whole lot more than you even have right now, you are awesome (like, even coming back to 1 year old videos? Wow!))
Thanks! The pain mostly comes from doing a "minimum" run. It's when you're sure something's possible but the stars have to align to actually work. And sometimes they do align and you find out you were wrong anyway.
@@BarelyAlec itd be a lot easier without the threat of dying, just make units invincible in the viking levels, won't change the fact that the void still instakills
@@carrott36 That line was just a reference to Edgar Allan Poe's "Quoth the raven nevermore" line. A group of ravens is called an unkindness so I just added that with the quote.
@@BarelyAlec The answer to super peasant is 60: Just put a peasant in the edge of the map and another one far away without any line of sight to super peasant, that way she overflies to death and can't fly to the other one because its out of sight
The tactically challenging campaign isn't tacticallg challenging at all. It's skill challenging. (If you wanna try 1 unit) But if you don't do 1 unit challenge, most of the level can be cheesed with 1 ballista/gunslinger and some cheerleaders. 2 ballista if you have enough gold.
You could continuously spawn peasants until you spawn a tiny one (sizes are random) that fits under the trees. But it might take like 10 minutes to even get one.
Oh that's a great point! So they can spawn small enough to fit like that? I know they can spawn different sizes, but I don't remember the exact ones possible.
Tbh I do similar stats but I get a lot of men and then possess one and run away while the other men distract and take out as many before dying then they jump off
I'm still considering doing this challenge again without manually controlling units, but probably won't do the other campaigns with this exact challenge
@@BarelyAlec bruh sorry for my short comment i will try to write a longer one but only if I'll be interested in doing so which might not be the case because I am a very lazy person
Very impressive
Yoooo thanks! I probably never would have done this challenge or a solo-unit challenge had your video not inspired me to start!
I was amazed that it was possible when I did my challenge that it was even possible. So this really blew my mind
good job explaining it too
@@Dragoon45 Thanks again! I was surprised this stuff worked out too. It took a lot of trial and error, but never underestimate bad AI
The gods are speaking above us
Hello Dragoon! big fan of your videos!
Imagine sending your entire army to a battlefield and the enemy's army consists of only one peasant
And then losing
And you have 2 fucking mammoths and still lose
@@breadbucket66 And it's their 32nd war that they've been apart of and they have sent a child out to beat 3 wars.
and then that one peasant kills all your army
@@con_noodlemore like they all just kill themselves chasing the peasant
Yeesh, and I thought Astral Spiff’s Halflings only run was impressive.
Thanks, this was tough but fun to find cheese in all the levels!
I fell the emotionless of his voice
:)
emotionlessness*
This guy took the saying “One man Army” to a whole new level! Congrats man on finishing it!
Thanks, it was a lot of fun finding ways to cheese these levels!
This is the voice of a man who has played this game WAY too much
;)
Over 100 hours on steam in 1 month. 6 HOURS A DAY
Seriously, mad respect bro; I love this game, and it's nice to see someone else who knows how to be clever at the game
Thanks! There is so much potential for crazy strategies in this game which is part of what makes it great
There's a way to make a custom unit with 0 cost, so technically if you permitted custom units it would be 0
I haven't looked that into the Unit Creator much myself so I don't know how it works with cost but you probably could do that lol.
The minimum they can cost is 21 dollars if you set the cost to manual, so then you can just make a “dark peasant” and destroy everything, but it’s probably against the rules
@@pikastudios2850 what rules? The only one is to beat it with the lowest cost possible c:
@@jennyjin1617 unfun challenges don’t get played or watched. Not getting watched means not getting revenue.
@@jennyjin1617 one of the unwritten rules is that this is done without custom units
I am a huge sucker for the war-quotes and fan fair that you edited between segments, it’s great stuff
I'm glad you liked the quotes! I wasn't sure how well they would flow with the video, but I thought it was a fun idea.
@@BarelyAlec I also like that they slowly deteriorate as the levels get more tedious 😂 Consider me subscribbled
@@coltonbates629 lol they definately got tedious at the end, but it was still fun figuring each level out. Glad to hear you subscribbled, welcome to the channel!
Watching this at 3 am and still awake at the end of the video shows a lot about how entertaining this content was :D keep it up!
Thanks, I'm a little surprised though since my voice is a little monotone.
@@BarelyAlec it could’ve been WAY worse.
The effort put into this is unreal
Thanks, it was pretty tedious at times but also a lot of fun!
This is basically “Put peasant on thing to lure units off the map”. Also, you can just turn on a gameplay setting that makes all units usable
Nothing wrong with luring units off the map!
you have my respect mate i cant imagine how long this took
Thanks! I don't remember exactly how long this whole challenge took, but I remember most levels being no more than an hour with some taking multiple hours.
I just noticed how underrated this video is. You need way more views!
Thanks! This video has been getting pushed by the algorithm a lot more recently.
wow! the amount of dedication it took
Thanks, some parts were painful but even those were fun and rewarding to beat!
I can't believe I only saw this now. This video hit all the right spots, entertainment wise. From one TABS tryhard to another, you have my respect.
Thanks!
This now has me wondering what’s the cheapest possible when not manually controlling units
Yeah, that could be interesting but would be really hard to know for sure what the minimum is. The upside to this video was that I knew 30 was always the theoretical minimum
Wow, your subscriber count should be 1,000x the current-very underrated!
Thanks, I really appreciate it!
"That unkindness of Ravens is Nevermore" nice reference :)
Thanks!
Honestly, you need more subs and views!
Thanks :)

The peasants are revolting and are too powerful for us to contain them!!
:)
This is pretty crazy! Good job!
Thanks!
its a shame this is the only tabs video you've posted, i instantly went to watch more tabs videos from you after finishing this one
I might do another TABS challenge in the future!
@@BarelyAlec i'd honestly watch you do a series on just beating all the campaigns with a halfling/peasant, war quote included.
@@carolus1602 Yeah, I've tried minimum cost in some other campaigns. Some levels might require using other units but I think it'd still be fun
I love that it devolves from famous QUOTESBY genius minds to "PO"
Po is a genius 😤
great video dude! keep going.
Thanks, I appreciate it!
Great video, i can hear your pain
Thanks! The pain mostly comes from doing a "minimum" run. It's when you're sure something's possible but the stars have to align to actually work. And sometimes they do align and you find out you were wrong anyway.
Very cool, you must have the patience of at least 3 and a half Gods
Thanks! 3.54 Gods to be exact
@@BarelyAlec bro
Man you're pretty under-rated
Thanks, I'm glad this video has been performing well recently!
just saying, you can beat any level with just a peasant if you have the bug dlc :)
lol true
@@BarelyAlec itd be a lot easier without the threat of dying, just make units invincible in the viking levels, won't change the fact that the void still instakills
This was sick, nice video :P
Thanks :)
Fun fact: The peasant is essentially just a regular wobbler, just cheaper. The default wobbler costs about 70 money.
I’m sorry, but the quote “due to birds not being real” at 5:15 made me do a triple take.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN
:)
Peasant form being-controlled-view looks like a hooded street fighter/protagonist and not just man with googly eyes.
While being controlled he's also a one-man army!
Impresive, but i have to say i love the peasant design the most, the tank is second
I like the peasant's design a lot too!
Bruh having an army in Totally Accurate Battle Simulator (TABS) is a Technically Avoidable Battle Standard (TABS)
Totally Absolutely Battle Strategy
Here's an idea: beat the entire campaign while spending under 100k (no cheesing with the control mechanic either)
That could be fun!
"RNG is cringe"
Ouch. Thats a shot at my twitch
‘So that unkindness of ravens is nevermore’
To quoth the Barely Alec
@@BarelyAlec Why did you use that line? I have an idea but don’t want to look like a total idiot for missing out on something
@@carrott36 That line was just a reference to Edgar Allan Poe's "Quoth the raven nevermore" line. A group of ravens is called an unkindness so I just added that with the quote.

your name goes from one side on my screen to the other side XD
i like this video because it starts with sun tzu complimenting my warrior skills
Glad you like the quotes!
Good gameplay 👍🏼
Thanks!
this was a mammoth of a video
more accurately, 2 mammoths of a video ;)
5:41 never git gud, always cheese 😂
That's how it ended up anyway lol. Skill is temporary, cheese is forever.
@@BarelyAlec skill deteriorates , cheese gets better with age

the trickery
I'm supposed to be the one tricking them :(
Next challenge, what is the lowest cost required to beat the dark peasant and super peasant individually
Cool idea!

By the way you can negate fall damage by not landing on your feet, and enemies cannot attack while kncked over
Thanks for the tips!
If Viking sandbox was in this campaign then it would be impossible. TABS players know what I mean
I can only imagine with how tough the main game already is
*me after seeing spiff beat all challenges and campaign levels with only hobbits/halflings*
*also me see's this*
aight fine

Please do other campaigns!

I learned so much from the Kung Fu Panda 😌
364 days, nice.
Oh I didn't even notice that! Almost a year since it came out
Me trying to completed Tabs without walking I tried beating all levels but the spear thrower so ps its not possible
Interesting challenge!
No, because peasants dont own pcs to run tabs
It was over before it began :(
I watched this in 1.25x because it felt like u talked in slo mo lol
Yeah, I talk faster in my newer videos since a lot of people have told me I talk too slowly
He used the ultimate cheese
The forbidden cheese
you still used halflings, those arent peasants
Landfall games are so buggy, its funny
It is a funny moments
