Frostpunk still holds on. Like the cities it portrays, the game pushes forward. Between further updates and an impending console version - we won't hear the last of Frostpunk for some time. This is hit home by the fact that there's plenty of paid DLC on the way, not mention the game's very recent release onto Console.
Given that the game quite a bit bigger than when we last looked at it, there's no time like the present for a guide. Frostpunk does a decent job of telling you how to play but it's easy to miss some finer points.
With that in mind, this guide is here to give you some cheeky little tips to help you on your way...

Gathering Posts are worth it
I'm sure I'm not the only one to not bother with gathering posts in my first few playthroughs of Frostpunk. Why bother spending time and effort building this cruddy building with limited radius when you can gather all the resources around you immediately and for free? How wrong I am... Put it this way. At the start of the game you'll have a set of resources spread around your generator. Let's say in one place you have two coal piles and one wood. You want all of them because coal = life and wood = buildings = life. To maximise output you'll need to put 45 of your precious people onto the job. If you're doing the first scenario then that's more than half of your 80 person workforce gone.
