YOU'RE TELLING ME I'VE BEEN NEEDLESSLY RISKING MY BACON AS A CITIZEN OF THE HOLY NATION, GOING OUT TO MINE COPPER, WHEN IT'S BEEN WITHIN THE CITY WALLS THOS ENTIRE TIME? OKRAN DAMN ME, AT LEAST I LEVELED STRENGTH AND TOUGHNESS THANKS TO THIS DISTANCE, auggh... 😫

This seems like a beast of a place to build a base if you want a challange 😁

weakling do that.

Minor thing, the first thing you build defines the center of your base. If you end up building outside that hidden circle especially in this location bits of your town belongs to the ruined town and you will have problems with power and enginers refusing to build things automatically.

Now that i know all those exploit, i rather just change stats in save

i find starving bandits better for toughness , you get a major boost to toughness xp when you stand up near enemies, so fight them and keep getting back up will you cant then have another character recover you to heal.

Does this work if the iron ore storage inside a building?

hate spiders, would rather deal with beak things, a broken line of basic melee fighters and some crosbowmen will sort out beaks pretty good even with junk bows or toothpicks

Love the Heroes 3 referens

The Hellbore Cannon has become one of my favourite large ballistics. While it fires slow projectiles at low dps with medium accuracy, it still has the highest HE damage per hit compared to other ballistic options. With the way armor works, more damage per hit means less damage reduction, making the Hellbore an incredibly potent can opener. It solves the problem of enemy armor, which is mostly found on bigger and slower ships anyway, for the low cost of 16 OP and 250 flux/s, opening up those stats to deal with everything else.

Skinners roam is a good place to train toughness and blocking/dodging, set to block then solo fight a large group of Hongery bandits, when you go down get up as soon as you can, if they are still close you get a bonus for getting back up in combat multiplied by how many enemys your facing (there might be 20 or more bandits) you can buff your toughness to 70 or 80 pretty fast while also training block or dodge, have a fast guy with bandages at the tech hunter outpost just over the border and have him recover your dood when he cant get up any more. if you want to feel like a bad ass go up against them with a edge walker or better blade and fight the groups normally and watch limbs fly off

The holy nation doesn't care if your character is black or white only if they female/skeleton/human with prosthetic/other race the get mad

No one cares if you steal from the robotics dealer either, you can take everything in his shop and sell it next door because he isnt technically allied with mongrel

My only complaints are all of his settlements are ugly as hell and look like they were plopped down by a randomizer

Who would put legion at the back… she frontline like Mora…

AllRightyThen!!! I just FINISHED Binge-Watching ALL the Settlement videos (and I'm only 2 IRL days into the game) so I've got some really good ideas now. I think I'm going to hang around the Dust and Hungry Bandits for a while, while I level up. Thanks for all the vids. I look forward to watching all the rest, as well! Shalom

So I based up here in my current playthrough and this place is so cheese. I can make 50k cats a day with my assassin just running around and stealth KO’ing princes. And Mongrel is amazing, they even have a robotics shop.

Only pure carriers puts in legion😂

Oh My!!! As a new player... these "Beak things" are a freaking NIGHTMARE!!! LOL I thought I was getting pretty strong and then Kenshi taught me a lesson.

I'm a 53 Y.0. 100% Disabled US Air Force and Army Vet that JUST got this game and I'm HOOKED!!! Thanks for all your videos. This is the first I've seen, but you've earned my SUB and LIKE and I look forward to binge-watching the rest! Shalom

5:09 the fact that his turret operators have no fucking head is hilarious. i bet they have a buff to the turrets stat too

First playthrough, I trained athletics and strength in squin till I worked up the balls to go into the swamp, instantly accidentally joined the hounds, and had no idea how or where to sell hash. So I stumbled my way east and happened to find flats, then immediately realized the Shem desert between was the best place to produce set up to make bank. You can trade cactus rum to the swamp, then buy hash, combine it with the stuff you make at the base, then head to flats to clear every shop. With a pack bull and some bodyguards you are set. I still play on that save haha, wondered if anyone else figured this out.

Concise and up to the point overview of armour😊

I setup in the guts, right on the coast. Made a huge Sake production base and i dont grow anything else haha so i just sell Sake and then buy everything else i need. However where i build is right next to a Shek Mercenary spawn point. And i am using a mod that increases the merc contract lengths, including a permanent one for outpost defense of 100,000 cats. So i have an army of about 50 Shek mercs guarding my base and every one of my primary characters has a bodyguard attachment of them. I love this game. Also. None of my characters can fight hahaha the Sheks do 100% of my fighting for me

I appreciate u helped me with all my bases. First obviously border zone, then shem, now I'm hiking to the uc towns want a base. Gut seems like the best choice

NEWFOUNDLAND MENTIONED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally

I just started playing 5 days ago and already have like 40 hours hahaha my first 3 attempts were disasters but the 4th attempt is going well. I have a very profitable Sake production business going

Can you have 2 bins, one character filling the bin, another character emptying the bin ?

Do you intend on doing a tierlist on all the locations when you finish the series?

Why not do both Rum and Hashish? The best place to sell the rum in this case is the Swamp which is the best place to buy hash. This leads you to Flats Lagoon and that's a great place to buy some base building supplies, and then you just head back home to pick up the next rum shipment. You have a full triangle route that never has you running empty backpacks.

I would also give an honorable mention to the Hub... especially with the Hub guard mod installed. Location: S. Can you really get any more centralized? Faction Grade: N/A. But, I will give it a C, as it could be an A or an F, based on your goals and how you look at it. There is no faction to worry about. Do as you will. Depending on your desires, having a lack of a real faction could be a blessing or a curse. Still, based on your alliances either the Shek or the Holy Nation could be helpful. But, Inside the wall of the Hub, no one bothers you. Shop Grade: D-. With only 1 bar, the Hub is abysmal in this area. However, Squin is a fairly short run away, allowing for athletics training on the way there and strength on the way back. However, you do have access to the Shinobi Ninjas (the tower ninjas) for training, plastic surgery and selling stolen goods. (the ninjas are the only reason I did not give this one an F) Property Grade: S. With 17 buildings to buy, the Hub is by far the greatest builder's town in the game. Research all the way to level 4 can be accomplished in this town, with ample room for most any endeavor. Although farming and mining may require a tiny outpost, the trip back to the Hub is very quick and easy, leaving nothing for foes to steal, as anything of value is safely back inside the Hub. Turning the Hub into Hub City can be a dream for beginners and experts alike, safe behind it's walls, never fearing retribution, taxes or attack from anyone. Amenity Grade: B Nearby, there are some fertile areas and a number of copper & iron mines. All of them are a relatively close run back to the Hub... or the little bar to the north of the Hub. Overall grade: B The only thing it lacks is proper infrastructure. However, if your goal is to build a town, you really cannot do any better.

Can you do a video on setting up a base in the Stenn Desert? I'd also be interested in a video on setting up a standard army with troop types - different roles, which races/equipment to use in those roles, how to efficiently train and equip them, etc.

Shem will always be my favorite region for a base. Right in the center of the map, potential for a huge all-in-one city-sized base, and you can pick fights with all 3 major factions for constant action. Just make sure you use one of the pools for your main gate and create a good killbox.

8:33 Taurus: Am I gonna die? 8:34 *Taurus unconscious no the floor

bro the best place is in Stobe's gamble at the top right bordering Venge it on the border the prospecting tool still calls it venge even though you are in the first iron and copper deposits and it has 100 fertility thats where I'm building my new base

i was litterally just about to settle here in my playthrough, but i totally forgot about those giraffe daddies.

this is an interesting take on base location. all the other guides put so much emphasis on copper and iron mining, but the way i pplay, thats not really a high priority

me when the cut efficency ends up making me wear a prototipe chainmal instead of masterwork otherwise I take somehow???? more dmg

Obviusly in Gut you should. If you want to have over 300k cats esily and a renuavle way of getting leather and meat to survive + very great enviroment to grow crops. Problem? Every weak character or non-mechanical will die. For the 300k, you cannot do it by yourself. Have a character with 2 backpacks in his inventory, he is passive and in stealth. The second that you recruited for 3k 6k 9k or by saving slaves (weirdo) will run to the their nest, agrro them all and run away, he's not going to go as fast as they, he will die without a doubt. You sacrifice him and collect the reward. Repeat for every nest

this guide is incorrect. the only viable location is the leviathan coast. that way, if you want to do anything fun, you have to travel for an hour to get there.

Add in iron hounds titans of the old empire, ashlands expanded, harder ashlands, crimpers reborn, scarier security spiders and thrashers. Ashlands really lives up to its name as a difficult area at that point

He's aware that Chile and Brasil are Part of "the Americas" , right?

I know it's not technically a carrier, but is there any particular reason you didn't give a special mention to the shepherd? It fills a similar role in very early game fleets while kinda doing a bit of everything. I'm quite new to the game, so I would have liked to have heard a more experienced player talk on the matter.

do you still get hiver traders coming to your base? BTW I have 1 mill cats and have almost completed all tech trees HAHA

On one of my Onslaught XIV designs from when I didn’t really know that much about how to build proper ships I put 4 medium reapers into the missile slots and just rode that thing into the enemy with burn drive active before hitting them with a close range 4 reaper volley, nothing survives that kind of burst. So much fun!

I heard that multiple gates screws up the pathing. Was this fixed?

Is there any real purpose to fighting Cat-Lon?

I am having issues with bast at the moment with the amount of rebel farmers my characters get good training tho but it cut into the food making and the uc keep trying yo tax me (i aint paying my taxes)
