About They Are Billions:
They Are Billions is a Steampunk strategy game set on a post-apocalyptic planet. Build and defend colonies to survive against the billions of the infected that seek to annihilate the few remaining living humans. Can humanity survive after the zombie apocalypse?
In my videos, typically I only cover the final wave in which billions of zombies come to try and destroy your Command Center while trying out crazy strategies. From making 2000 snipers, hundreds of Titans, Shock Towers Only, you name it; I like to have fun and try some crazy stuff! I don't really go over beating the game, or necessarily make the 'Best Defense Possible' because I aim to make these videos as epic and entertaining as possible.
They Are Billions recently had it’s full release adding a new campaign, new units, missions, enemy zombies, towers and more and we have to build the New Empire!
They Are Billions custom map gameplay is a big thing now too since the release of the custom map editor in the new update. The map editor allows anyone to make any scenario in They Are Billions, from having 100 giants attack at once to spawning in a thousand Rangers!

[@makaan1932]

those gates on the right side were a really bad idea, plus no walls behind them?!

[@syrusalder7795]

exactly what i was thinking I had played the map before I saw this video, and I started to sweat some hefty bullets as the days ticked down and that right side stayed as vulnerable as ever I suppose kibz saw that zombies, due to their programming, tended to form streams and once he realised where that stream hit the wall, just bothered with his main defences there, assuming that they would mostly hit in that spot Which is a tad of a mistake when it comes to having a single final wave on a bridge map. Which is something he should know from experience. But oh well, he managed to pull it off anyway.

[@TheBlobik]

@@syrusalder7795I am not sure if this weakness did not cause the win, eventually. The weakspot caused the zombies to spread out around the towers, allowing more units to start firing (if the wall was homogenous, then only first few rows would be able to fire at all). Plus many zombies seemed to glitch a little and move sideways - wanting to attack the front row of towers, but being pushed aside by other ones into this weakspot. It is possible that as a result they got killed by further rows without doing much damage. I am not sure though, I do not own the game so I am not sure if zombies who have no attack animation do no damage or maybe if this is just a visual thing.

[@greyhunter3271]

@@TheBlobik I think the Titans on the right side won the day honestly.

[@Peleski]

I did wonder whether using the inn (instead of shocks) would work with this one, and it seems to work, at least up to Brutal. Getting enough high units from the inn seems like an RNG gamble though

[@erawlins1]

I've been eagerly awaiting this one and it did not disappoint, one of the most fun videos you've made.

[@Mcslave10101]

Subbed to see your play through. My computer crashed many times on this mission, so no hope of me completing it. Also, THANKYOU for cutting out the extra filler footage. Makes these episode so much more content filled than everyone else's content.

[@73Stargazer]

Kibz: almost overrun by massive swarm of zombies, "best map ever!!"

[@radec1906]

Actually there are two certain breakpoints in this game. If you want to finish in 800% with maximum efficiency there are two tech you would want to rush 1-Plasma Spheres before Cape Storm which unlocks Shock Towers and they are your main defence from there on. 2-Articulated Vehicles and/or Combat Artillery which unlocks Titan and Executor respectively before The Noxious Swamp. Because Ballista and Shock Towers are unable to stop Spitters and Soldiers and Archers are swarmed at 800% and cannot have crowded Sniper army in time. Therefore getting a Titan or two or 2 Execs can clear the entire swarm easy peasy.

[@clintcook8691]

Imkibitz: “spam clicking doesn’t make them fire faster” Spam clicks anyways

[@magnusm4]

It kind of does. You have to clikc inside the swarm to make their aoi hit as many zombies as possible. But since they die in a single shot you have to constantly select enemies non stop otherwise they'l shoot the closest and waste spread damage.

[@aitorlegorburu8598]

if you attack manually with a unit after it has attacked it cancels the animation and it attacks right after. ou can do a mchine gun which is pretty helpfull at starts I discovered this today. dosnt works as great against multiple targets while controlling a lot of friendly units because the attack diiscoordinate. Try it out

I beat this without towers, stone walls, and balistas. Just wood walls and about 600 soldiers. I layered them between wood walls. I had 14 soldier centers making soldiers at once. Took a ton of pausing to get everything being made perfectly, but only 3 tries overall. Watching your other videos has helped a lot.

That has to be a pre-nerf swarm. The horror of what it originally looked like. I feel like I played the baby game for babies with what I faced. Still, cape storm without shocking tower or lucys just seems like shooting yourself in the foot before running a marathon. But you pulled it off so props dude.

[@viktornicht260]

What an absolutly epic level!

[@jagarcia0705]

If there was ever a crossover with There are billions & lets say Starcraft for example. The Emperor would say to Jim Raynor "I thank you helping my people, but something tells me this not the first time you fought against overwhelming odds". Raynor would respond with "You're right."

"Two titans!? hahaha EZ... EZ... " ~kibitz 18:24 LMAO Good job man. This map stomped me. Had to restart my campaign. That INN was clutch!

A campaign restart doesnt seem neccessary. So long as you at least have soldiers and towers, you should be able to do it. I didnt have the inn, but then again I was playing on accessible, so there is that.

Dr Evil: why make billions when we can make.... MILLIONS? 😏

[@DraconiusDragora]

Note: The Wasp is not seen as food for the zombies, so you can build them, and they will be ignored till they start firing. They are okayish within the horde missions, as they have high fire rate with decent damage. And there is a Train upgrade that gives you a free Wasp every 24h which makes it easy to get a early defense up, if you have gotten to the point of getting them that is.

Or just Shocking towers, they are ridiculously good on this mission, you are unlikely to lose even a single one, since even if zombies break through walls and start damaging them, they clear zombies in a large enough area that for just a fraction of a second you can actually start repair on them. And if you also get range upgrade on them, you probably wouldn't need to do even that :-)
