Original Challenge Post Down Below
Hi Knights! We've had a slightly extended Community Challenge this time around. Our next one will be after CKF releases in May! Super excited for that one.
Wanted to share a few highlights from the Limited Roster Challenge.
First, Ahab discussing his strategies for approaching running with a limited Barracks and Roster.
Vasvary5050, shared how they set up their safehouse while running a Level 2 Barracks.
We had a lot of chatter about this challenge, particularly on our Discord, as this challenge did force folks to play differently than they were used to. When you take on all of the recruits or always upgrade your barracks a ton, limiting those forces new strategies!
Thank you to everyone who took part! Like I said, our next challenge for CKF will be after launch. If you have any ideas for what would be a great first full release challenge, let me know!
-------------------------------------
Hello, Knights! It's time for another CKF Community Challenge. We did something different in December with the Giving Gifts event, but we are back to our more "regular" challenges that change up gameplay. This time we want to challenge you to run with a limited roster. This will make injuries and wounds more impactful and lead to some tough decisions on what missions to take, when to take them, etc.
After talking with some of our community members about the best way to implement this challenge, we have one specific requirement to ensure that you run with a limited roster:
- Your barracks must be no higher than level 2
Depending on where you are in your current game, having a limited roster may require starting up a new campaign if your barracks is already upgraded to level 3 or above. You are not required to start a fresh game though if your barracks meets the requirement above.
As always, most of the fun of community challenge is what you all share about how your tackle them! Here are some ideas for what you could share:
- Who you prioritize (what jobs, etc) when your roster is limited
- Your strategies for juggling injuries, etc when you have less mercs
- How your playstyle changed from your 'normal' to accommodate this challenge
- Any other creative ways you want to share to tell us about your team: memes, interpretive dance, gifs, etc
No matter what you choose to share, please share screenshots of your barracks showing us that it is level 2 (or unupgraded)!
We’ve opened up a discussion here on Steam in the General Discussion forum for aIl of your posts. If you post in our Discord, head to #limited_roster_challenge to join in on the conversation!
Look forward to seeing how you all tackle this challenge! As always at the end of the challenge, we'll be back with a wrap up and a few highlights!
