I enjoy this game and happy to see you are playing it.

I thought you closed your channel due to a Message from Patreon 😢. So happy to see you with one of my favourite games

[@SoloPlaythroughs]

I tried to. 🤣 And I will have to close down the Patreon at least at some time in the upcoming months as streaming gets closer to monthly as opposed to weekly. As for Frostpunk, I’m even more impressed with it after a few more plays following this video. I’m looking forward to playing the other scenarios.

Hi Greg, I think you must have been doing something really wrong with the passive food generator during the weather phase. For example, around 2:01:23 (round 6), you had 5 hunter's huts (1 upgraded, 4 unupgraded). This shows a total of 6 symbols. This gives you 6 food on the weather phase (+1 food because of Tracking Techniques, so 7 total). Somehow you gave yourself 11 food. I noticed this issue in previous rounds as well. An unupgraded hunter's hut gives you 1 food during the weather phase, and an upgraded hunter's hut gives you 2 food. You don't get extra passive food other than this (unless you have some technology giving you extra food). Edit: I think I figured out the incorrect rule. I think you might have been misunderstanding the benefit of Tracking Techniques. It gives you +1 food per map tile with a food bonus (such as the map tile with +2 food that is south of the generator). It does *not* give you +1 food per map tile with a food generating building/hunting symbol! So your misunderstanding made Tracking Techniques a lot more powerful than it would have been. (it is usually good when you have 3-4 tiles showing food, which wasn't the case in your game).

Gotcha. I was confusing the "hunting symbol" with the "food bonus" symbol. Nice catch and thanks for pointing it out!

@@SoloPlaythroughs I also put a comment that had a link to my guide but I think youtube might have hidden it (I guess links are suspicious?). Is there some way you can check and unhide it?

[@SoloPlaythroughs]

Hey! Yeah - I forgot KZbin stopped letting commenters post links awhile back. I added a link to your guide in the description to the video!

Thinking 🤔 about this one and War of My but still not sure is my cup of tea.. how you find it?

[@SoloPlaythroughs]

I would 100% recommend Frostpunk over This War of Mine, but I do think TWOM is worth playing at least once for the experience if you can find a copy for a reasonable price. IMO, Frostpunk gives the player a much more interesting series of strategic choices.
