Description

Game configuration : -I took Oumaji because they have Riders who travel faster. -Only one opponent for obvious reason. -I took easy difficulty but maybe the development pattern of the ennemy are better on other difficulties, never tried.

Strategy : -Dont train or construct anything, just find the ennemy capital without fighting. -Trying to avoid forest because it slows the Rider (good thing oumaji's territory has almost no forest). -Very RNG-based run : -You must spawn near the ennemy -You must not spawn too close or you will encounter an ennemy unit = you will lose time with encounter dialog + attack menu when you stop near the unit + attack animation when he will defend his capital -The ennemy must not train an unit so you don't have to fight to enter in the capital -The ennemy must send his only unit away from his capital AND in the opposite direction -The ennemy must not come back to defend his capital when you take it (or be already too far) -The ennemy must not take a second city while you capture his capital (yea it happens even in easy ...)

past strategies : -I started by training a 2nd Rider on first turn and rushing with them but in a run against Imperius I noticed my second rider did nothing. So I started to play the strategy above to reduce my time by not having to train and move a second rider.

Improvement : -I tried to improve this time by restarting games until the 2 captitals are touching but seeing an ennemy unit trigger additional menus and animations and make me lose more times than the additional traveling turn. -I think the only improvement is to click faster unless someone find a faster strategy with another tribe.

-MOD NOTE- good run, I shall put the strategy mentioned here into the guides section of the Polytopia Speedruns
