Are Churches OP in Tropico?

well we have a brand new air we could make them an environmentalist but no instead we're going to make them a financier as i will of course train my child oh my goodness my child um you are you look like a ghoul from fallout hello there ladies and gentlemen i'm the spiffing brit and today welcome into the fantastical world of tropico 5 that's right what brings us to the wonderful world of tropico 5. well i'm here today to not just showcase how much of a fantastical and wonderful dictator i'd make i'm also here to demonstrate how to create infinite quantities of wealth using an exploit that i'm sure no one will expect it's going to be fantastic it's going to be cheesy and of course the developers 100 never intended this to happen so make sure you're sat back relaxed in your comfy caribbean hammock you have a nice warm cup of imported yorkshire tea gold in front of you and of course you've saluted the queen who will probably be ruling over your island and heck if you're feeling especially fantastic you can even like the video now without further ado let's dive into a brand new game of tropico 5. we're going to start a brand new sandbox map and we actually need to create a brand new dynasty so we're going to create the brit dynasty and this is going to give us our first ruler who is um whose name is going to be jesus brit okay jesus spirit i'll go for i'll go for jesus spirit sure this sounds fantastic now you can basically have whatever ruler you want to really pull off this exploit but if you want to do it quickly pick up the administrator this bad boy allows you to build service buildings 10 cheaper this is fantastic because trust me we're going to be building a lot of service buildings now let's also put ourselves up in a nice suit oh look at this fantastic stuff oh my goodness just look at this it's jesus brit ladies and gentlemen he's fantastic he's going to be perfect and so we actually need to choose our island that we're going to be starting on now we can pick any island whatsoever but generally speaking we want to pick a big island now we're going to pick ila in normay because it is the biggest island that is available we'll also have a starting population of 200 why not starting money we'll crank that down to 2000 and we'll just leave everything else on normal it doesn't really make a difference now of course the most difficult victory by money is one million and so you know what we'll also put a goal of making 1 million but the minor issue is that i will probably make 1 million before the game really expects me to be able to make 1 million now without further ado let's just throw ourselves into a brand new game oh wait not modern times we're starting the colonial eras that's right we'll stay loyal to the queenie fantastic now welcome to our lovely island it's nothing too fancy at the moment it's just a lovely gigantic mega palace where you know we live with our incredibly fantastic honor guard then just down the road is a gigantic corn plantation there's a few lovely country houses for some peasants and then most importantly a shack because every good society needs a shack or two now our island population of 200 immediately won't have many homes because we only have enough homes here for like 50 people so there's going to be a lot of shack very shortly but the thing is we also need to make money now the traditional way of making money in this game would be to build a couple of mines on this iron and coal deposit maybe get a few more plantations going to grow some food maybe some cash crops like for example we could grow healthy bananas lovely tasty chocolate or the spawn of the devil itself naturally we're not going to be touching any coffee coffee is illegal so instead we actually need to start making money via alternate means and luckily thanks to a handy little dlc called inquisition tropico 5 adds this very fantastic money building here called the inquisition now the inquisition is a very simple building it's a great big old church ladies and gentlemen and nobody actually expects it so we'll just place that bad boy down and get it built now the lovely teamsters are running along in their fantastic puritan looking clothings to start construction work on my lovely gigantic inquisition building oh it's going to be beautiful anyway the inquisition has now just been absolutely wonderfully constructed by our builders glorious stuff indeed we should need to build all of the scaffolding and then we'll bam check out this lovely inquisition now the inquisition is a very unique place its main job is to basically control all of the factions on your island in the early game we just have royalists and then hippies who want to be free from the royalists and so this building allows us to persecute factions that we dislike which is you know fantastic however this building also allows for something slightly unique because as soon as you build it you can actually pay for this lovely upgrade here sell indulgences what does this mean well the inquisition provides profits depending on the number of religious buildings on the island that's right the more churches you have the more pleased the inquisition is the more money they will summon out of thin air and just give to you now we might live on a hellscape when most of the population is starving and living in shacks but in this lovely hellscape we have a gigantic inquisition building which now wants us to build large quantities of churches now we could build any religious building but we're actually going to be very specific and build the cheapest religious buildings the lovely catholic mission and we're just going to build as many as feasibly possible we're just going to put six catholic missions down right here and then another freeze so there we go went up to 10 catholic missions just right there and we'll get all of them constructed we are also going to need to invite foreign workers otherwise you know we're not actually going to be able to run the inquisition correctly so there we go the inquisition is now built foreign workers have been invited and will arrive to the island and we've now started construction of our lovely catholic missions at the same time our population is starting to decrease this is because people die generally because 73 of the people on the island are actually homeless now with our first church actually built this is where the fun begins because we can now actually start making money off of these churches now one thing you want to do is to make sure that all of your churches have the lowest budget possible because ultimately we're going to have a lot of them we don't want them to be very costly but for every church we have the inquisition is going to start giving us more and more money oh and speaking of the inquisition we have a brand new steam paddle boat coming with the free immigrants we actually need to get this inquisition building up and running so here comes our lovely paddle steamer and our free lovely immigrants will arrive and give us some amazing bonuses and there we go the three new foreign workers have arrived oh and look at them in their amazing inquisition garbs it's gabriel benjamin and benito valdez okay now they live in shacks but don't worry they'll be upgraded out of shacks very soon and you've noticed that immediately the inquisition building has turned a profit this is because we have two lovely catholic missions on the island and each of those buildings provides 250 dollars isn't that wonderful okay now we have a third catholic mission up and running which is fantastic that no means we get an extra revenue of 750 but of course we need more i actually need these construction sites you know being worked on you know what i think we could actually do with building more of more construction offices they're really cheap actually so let's just get more of them who's this oh it's the revolutionaries leader karissie gutierrez she's unemployed broke and for some reason she thinks we're okay apparently she suffers from low faith have you seen the amount of churches we have here karissa there are like four churches almost completed right here there's a gigantic inquisition temple how would you need more religion than this oh dear and apparently uh jesus britain has been a little bit of a cheeky sausage and consequently there's been an unexpected pregnancy and so he will quickly become my new heir and so i mean we could pay to keep things quiet and lose 5000 or we could organize a quick wedding and build a new catholic mission in nine months well guess what we've got a new catholic mission coming in probably the next two months or so this is fantastic let's get a new catholic mission built and that means we'll also get ourselves a brand new air well we have a brand new air we could make them an environmentalist but no instead we're going to make them a financier as i will of course train my child oh my goodness my child um you look like a ghoul from fallout well myera brit she's just she's fantastic exactly the way she is splendid so she grants a natural income of 100 per year which is lovely and her manager effect is to increase the building's revenue by five percent will actually make her the manager of the inquisition and this is actually going to make us more money as you can see we're now making 1250 from the inquisition and it's about to be increased even further as we now have six churches up and running that's right six churches here comes the money now we have got more catholic missions than ever actually constructed and we're about to get up to 10 catholic missions each of which of course provides us with 250 each right now with 10 churches down we should be making 2 500 each tick and yep that is exactly what we're making 2 500 lovely stuff so logically the next thing we need to do is just build even more churches because now that we're making 2500 that's pretty decent quantity of money but of course it could be improved so i'm going to build a further 10 churches actually not i can do even more than that okay i've now got a further 12 churches under production and it should more than double on natural income at the same time i will also build ourselves just a little tavern because it turns out most of the people on the island are you know cripplingly depressed so i think a small little drinking establishment should make them a little bit happier so i'm going to build it and there we go this should make them happy meanwhile we're getting more and more catholic missions built and it seems our extra revenue isn't up to 3000 with all of our churches lovely stuff this is splendid i suppose i do also need a mansion for our lovely inquisitors because you know we don't want our inquisitors to be sad considering you know they're pretty much the backbones of our entire economy these three inquisitors here generate all of the revenue that our island actually has so let's just quick build them a mansion and there we go wealth required to move in rich and luckily the wealth provided is rich so they should all be able to move in here right now we're up to about 30 000 in the bank now because you know we have so many catholic missions uh and so we're just going to build even more it's just going to be religious street where you'll be able to continuously go to every single church imaginable there we go just a whole bunch more churches you know we can even fit them in behind the inquisition building so let's get a couple more in back here and we'll also actually implement a tax cut ladies and gentlemen this is going to actually improve the approval of all of the citizens on the island but of course it doesn't really eat into our bottom line because most of our revenue comes from the gigantic inquisition building four people died from starvation last year look i'm a good dictator stop telling me it's i don't care when people die it's not my fault you know they they all fell over now the thing is it doesn't actually matter how many people are visiting this church we don't get revenue off of that it doesn't even matter if the churches have staff inside of them all that matters is that a church building exists and then we're able to gain money from the inquisition now this building was added into a dlc which i think sells for about three pounds or something like that and it is the most overpowered infinite money building in the game and it was simply added in because evidently the poor intern who was in charge of designing it has absolutely no idea how to properly balance a building like that and just go sure yeah all of the religious buildings they can just provide all of these insane bonuses and i've also laid out plans for even more catholic missions so that we can increase our revenue further and apparently the revolution wants me to build more catholic missionaries to aid in their revolution request and i mean we're going to build them anyway so i'm happy stealing money off the revolution and there we go we actually gained some revolutionary support we could of course import educated citizens but what's the point in that when we can just get 2 000 into our highly legal swiss bank account that's where all the money should go let me check the almanac and see how people are feeling with regards to religion religious happiness is only 28. people are feeling more happy about the crime safety liberty than they are about the religiousness have you guys seen how many religious buildings we have available and you're complaining about the lack of quality oh my goodness i give you everything guys look at the amount of churches we have look at all of the churches anyway our inquisition is actually very happy with the amount of religious buildings we have so they're now giving us 8 500 which is absolutely splendid now it would seem that because we've got such an inquisition based economy the revolutionaries are pretty excited and they want us to name someone to become the grand inquisitor of tropico now we have a few options we could make it a dynasty member and gain a nice large amount of swiss bank account money make it a revolutionary make it a royalist instead we're going to make it penultimo because apparently we need someone who would look good in a nice red uniform someone who is not pinotemo well it's gonna be penultimo presidente i'm shaking you're shaking everyone is shaking oh wait no apparently there's an earthquake is that seriously just because i made pedotomo the uh the inquisitor and now there's now there's an earthquake eight citizens were killed one building was damaged and five buildings were destroyed no not the inquisition building okay let's rebuild all rebuild all it cost us ten grand but it's okay we'll get it rebuilt quick build the inquisition building though that one's needed for as soon as possible and there we go we're getting our inquisition men back and fantastic whilst most of the catholic missions aren't actually even staffed because you know we don't have enough educated people to actually run them we are still able to make 12 hundred each day off of them which is fantastic because look at that we now have a hundred and sixty thousand dollars in the bank this basically means we're one tenth of the way to actually finishing again apparently pinot mo wants me to upgrade the inquisition so that it sells indulgences which you know we've already got and this will give us two free catholic missionaries which means we've done it immediately all right and the construction work on even more of the missionaries is well underway i will want to send off another exploration squad so that we can actually map out this area of the map and get more missionaries built and i've just placed down 10 more catholic missionaries you know let's make it 15. oh my goodness it's just so easy to make money in this game i know how there's like you know the logical way you make money in tropico it's meant to be that you actually build a working economy you export coal you export iron you turn wood into lumber you export the lumber and then in reality all it takes is an inquisition and a whole bunch of abandoned churches that aren't even stocked and the inquisition will just summon the money out of thin air meanwhile the island revenue is going great we are making 18 000 from the inquisition which naturally means we just need more catholic missions so that's exactly what we're going to be building right now i've got even more catholic missionaries actually laid down and we've actually unlocked a constitution if we wanted to meaning we could actually declare our own independence and i'm also going to issue a building permit this is going to increase building construction costs by 20 but half of those increase costs will end up in our swiss bank account which will gain us a lovely quantity of money now we are desperately going to actually need more construction workers on our island so i think yet more construction officers are going to have to start cropping up all over the place oh my goodness uh some tragic news apparently was trying to help the king build the world's largest bonfire with all of the planks we've exported the king ended up burning himself to death uh consequently we're gonna receive fewer options to extend our mandate meaning we can't stay permanently locked in here forever i know that was something you can easily do in tropico 6 but evidently they don't want you cheesing it completely here understandable oh and apparently we can now proclaim independence whenever we want we can just start it um of course we're not going to do anything like that just yet because you know our island is wonderful now but just in case we are going to surround the entrance to our island with a large quantity of guard towers should you know we ever actually get invaded now we are almost up to around about half a million dollars in the game meaning we're close to halfway to finishing the end game goal of 1 million that's how incredibly well we're doing it is insane i'm also going to build a second military fort because i need to get more explosion done we need to actually discover all of the land around us after all one must know the land if they are to build seven thousand catholic missionaries on the land well i've just laid out the groundwork for even more catholic missions this is getting slightly insane but it is of course completely and utterly necessary and naturally with more construction work underway it only makes perfect sense that you know we get ourselves down yet another construction office anyway the inquisition is now up to making us 27 750. we take a look at our almanac here we can actually see the increase in our revenue that we've made over the years as you can see our domestic revenue has increased dramatically and is now up to 717 000 each year and pretty much all of this is from top earner of a buildings this is basically entirely the inquisition and because it's a dlc it's not even properly implemented so when you click on it it just says there are no such buildings in tropico because the game does not know how to classify the income coming from the inquisition it might be making us almost 1 million a year but the game has no idea how to comprehend this okay i've now just plotted out another 52 missionary buildings which combined will give us a lovely income of 13 000 added onto our lovely additional income which is now up to 37 250. this is very good stuff now with only six months left it's looking like we really will have to actually declare independence oh what a shame i was really enjoying not having to declare independence but alas it seems something we must do oh and apparently our mandate just got renewed by another year fantastic that's all we need because guess what ladies and gentlemen we're about to cross the threshold of making one million meaning we've beat the economic victory of this game in the colonial era using just catholic missionaries the entire economy is based around a single inquisition building which is surrounded by completely and utterly abandoned catholic missionary buildings this is how how can a game designer go um yes we could create a stable economy around this system here yes this makes perfect sense i've seen economies function just like this it's madness it's complete and out of badness and i love it and now i've just built even more potential catholic missionaries this is going splendidly we're making such a lovely quantity of money and i completely missed it we've one million dollars in the bank we have completed the economical victory which is meant to be a challenge ladies and gentlemen that's right this game is meant to be at least to some degree you know a little bit difficult in parts maybe but no no there is no challenge actually oh and we have one month left and we are not going to get on mandate extended which means it is time for us to declare independence ladies and gentlemen we have really loved serving the crown but alas it must all come to an end so proclaim independence now now we do have an option we can simply buy our freedom for twenty thousand dollars which is absolutely nothing or we can just say let them come which i think is the fun thing to do so let's summon them over here comes the redcoats ladies and gentlemen look at them they've come to drink our tea which is all fantastic and wonderful but luckily you know we have our gigantic wall of guard towers here which um should be able to defeat even the finest royal colonial infantry ah fantastic stuff good luck trying to defeat us you majestic sausagey brits look they're making a beeline up our lovely church street but they can't get to us oh no no no they can't we're unstoppable well it turns out ladies and gentlemen if you want to stop the brits from invading your island and you want to declare independence simply build around about 700 you know catholic missionaries and then encase yourself in the wall of guard towers it just works oh and we have now entered into the world wars so we have now entered into the world wars era which is much more exciting for us it is now january 1914 and we have a few options for our lovely constitution now i propose that we go for a theocracy so that religious buildings lower crime in their vicinity because we have a lot of religious buildings next up i propose that of course only wealthy citizens vote and for armed forces we shall have a professional army of militias lovely and okay well with all those religious buildings if we were to take a look at say what crime looks like on an island oh my goodness it's pretty much perfect there's a small spot of crime here where we don't have 700 religious buildings but that's fine we can we can deal with that we'll build one police station to deal with all of that crime oh this is amazing so welcome to the amazing world wars uh we can buy community aid for all of these buildings to increase the housing quality of residents in the vicinity by 10. this is fine now what we're going to do is actually try and hire ourselves some more workers for our library as i want to start beelining our way through the research tree as soon as possible so that way we can make our way through to the glorious bank building which allows us to generate money based off of our interest and now apparently we're making 51 000 just from our inquisition alone this is splendid stuff indeed oh and also we can upgrade all of our lovely military ford so that way they actually have modernized weaponry fantastic stuff now we're up to 1.4 million in the bank and i'm just going to let all of these lovely catholic missionaries build themselves and then i want to see how much money we're able to make who knows how much it's going to be the sky really is the limit right well we're up to 2.3 million in the bank and uh speaking of which we've actually managed to research ourselves a bank now banks are relatively expensive at 11 000 each but what makes them special is they accrue interest based on what is actually in your treasury now you're only allowed to build four of them but this should be fine for us as you know what we have a large amount of money stored away so we should be able to make a decent quantity of cash now i will simply invite as many foreign workers as necessary and well now every single bank is making this 1143 and there is no way to improve that apparently that is just the maximum we are allowed to make which is fine because you know the inquisition is making us 81 000 each month which is much much better oh you know we've got an election happening soon which is fantastic we're going to win of course because we have 72 percent approval which is incredible and just a shining beacon of how fantastic we are look at that jesus brit 67 oh no it's gone down or who do i need to bribe you're a rebel let me bribe you so that you like me a bit more oh i think i know why i'm hated so much because the communists hate it whenever i build a new church and i've kind of built you know several hundred of them that's fine i can just bribe their leader a bit there we go just give them a bit of money oh we can of course fudge the election results sure election results will be adjusted slightly let it happen there we go we've won the election fantastic with flying colors as well and we're also going to send an ambassador to say that we will probably sign on with the allies because you know we might as well although i suppose we should do that after i finish building you know just a few more churches just just a few we've we've got enough churches but is it really enough well we've only gone and done it ladies and gentlemen the entire island is completely not a leak just coated with religious buildings look at this lovely map mode and yet still if we go over to the happiness religious happiness is still at 52 there are 626 religious buildings we make an incredible 173 000 dollars per year oh my goodness right you know what let's um let's sign with the allies all right we're gonna go join the allies and um that's fantastic and we can also sign a treaty of the axis well we're not going to actually let the axis you know uh retreat to our island so we're going to say let them come this means they're basically going to try and invade us i'm not too sure where they will actually attack us from but oh it seems the axes have landed on the beach right here come the angry germans they've got a couple of fun squads of infantry and and now a lovely battle shall take place luckily our militia is ready that's right we've recruited peasant conscripts ladies and gentlemen they are not exactly the best fighters they can just lie down on the floor and shoot but they will do a splendid job oh and the rebels are also attacking at the exact same time well it's okay all right well the great combat is now happening with all these lovely machine guns now opening up on the lovely rebels as well as the german invasion force and um the battle in the streets is going relatively well it does indeed appear that we are going to win and there we go they've broken they're retreating just the tanks remain now are just the tanks they've got a lot of health but it's okay we should be able to defeat them nonetheless with all of our lovely peasants run peasant militia throw your bodies into the tanks and slow them down yes oh fantastic glorious stuff one of them is down another one and oh we've only gone and done it we did it ladies and gentlemen we're now in the cold war uh we're filthy millionaires well there you have it we've done a fantastic job we make an insane quantity of money per turn just look at our revenue it is incredible we've received a total revenue of 18 million dollars which is just absolutely incredible oh my goodness we're just too good we are just simply too good at this game and well they have it ladies and gentlemen we have created the ultimate island paradise where we are generating incredible quantities of wealth at a absolutely ludicrous rate anyway if you've enjoyed watching us break tropico and you want to pledge your life to jesus brit then make sure to like the video and do consider subscribing every single person who subscribes will receive a bribe and now that's exactly what you want anyway as always thank you very much for watching ladies and gentlemen as always a gigantic thank you to each and every one of our amazing patrons whose names are listed on screen now look at these majestic sausages and heck if you sat there wondering what video to watch next look no further than this one on screen now as i'm pretty sure it'll be absolutely perfect for you anyway i'll see each and every one of you in the next
