Hello Citizens,
To address struggles you have met in our latest expansion, we decided to gather all of your questions across community and give you couple of tips & tricks which should make your playthroughs easier! :)
Check them out below:
1. Why am I running out of workforce at the start of the game?
Steam Extraction Districts consume a large amount of workforce while producing a resource that is plentiful early on. Consider deconstructing some of them instead of keeping them all active. This frees workers, delays tremors, and provides a significant amount of Prefabs and Heatstamps to help your early economy.
2. Should I keep or remove all Steam Extraction Districts?
There isn't a single correct choice. You can fully transition to coal by removing all Steam Extraction Districts, or keep some of them operating. On lower difficulties, a good starting strategy is to keep the southernmost Steam Extraction District while deconstructing the others.
Additionally, if you decide to Negotiate with Aurora, relying on steam will make stockpiling valuable coal much easier.
3. I'm struggling with food early in the game. What should I do?
Use the Community Actions available to each starting community in New Edinburgh they can help offset the initial food shortage. Additionally, explore the Frostland early, as food is limited but available in surrounding territories.
4. How can I explore the Frostland efficiently?
Your starting Warm Logistics District provides 20 Frostland Teams, which is enough to reach medium-difficulty areas from the beginning of the game. Expect some injuries, but early exploration is an important source of food and other valuable resources.
5. Why is my military campaign progressing so slowly?
Recruiting Platoons takes time, so relying on a single Barracks significantly slows your army growth. Building multiple Barracks and securing a strong materials economy especially through Foundry research and eastern iron deposits will speed up your military expansion.
6. What's the best way to weaken Aurora before the final assault?
Answer: Target Aurora's outposts first. Seizing the food outpost is especially valuable, as it provides the only dedicated food outpost available and reduces Aurora's overall Strength. Capturing or razing other outposts also weakens Aurora before the siege.
7. How many Platoons should I bring to attack Aurora?
Launching attacks with at least 50 Platoons generally leads to better combat outcomes, reducing both defeats and casualties compared to attacking with smaller forces.
8. Should I use Heavy Weaponry during the siege of Aurora?
Heavy Weaponry makes the siege easier but also causes the Resistance to start at a higher level afterward. Even if you choose not to use Heavy Weaponry during the siege, building one Weapon Factory is recommended because weapons are still needed to fight the Resistance later.
9. When is the best time to relocate the Generator Hull?
If warmer weather is approaching, consider waiting before dismantling the Generator Hull. Dismantling during periods of high heat output can injure or even kill workers. An expanded Warm Logistics District using Overtime can produce the 30 Frostland Teams required for the relocation.
if time is of the essence, consider investing in insulation for your districts, aim to keep heat production below 250 for ideal results.
10. Why does the Resistance become overwhelming in Act II?
The Resistance only becomes active after you begin sending food from Aurora to New Edinburgh, so use the time beforehand to strengthen Aurora. Keep Insurgent numbers under control larger groups can attack multiple districts simultaneously. Also, ensure Aurora has sufficient insulation, an active Housing District with a Hospital, and use Treatment research and Triage to prevent illness from spiraling out of control.
11. Why are some of my people dying during tremors?
Shelter coverage is an important mechanic, plan your city around emergency shelters as to ensure all your districts (not just housing!) are receiving ample coverage for the best results. If all your districts have ample coverage and people are still dying, ensure the district is not damaged, broken or turned off
12. Why are my people starving if I have food stockpiled?
Be mindful when using the ‘restrict food rations’ city ability, it can really turn a bad situation around, but the hunger it will cause is often enough for a few people to starve, most of the time you can prevent this by using the founders community ability or building a few food hoarding inspectorates in your housing districts!
Take care!
