I'm now going on the edge of thread necromancy, but I wanted some LKS discussion, and where is it better to do it than in the Official thread?
Secondly, this entire post is filled with semi-spoilers.
I have now played this game for 13 hours, and unified the world 27% (that is, having just taken down the Ripe Kingdom). I'm really taking my time with this game, and doing all the 3-day-quests, as well as exploring a bit in places I'm not supposed to be.
So far - it's bloody awesome. Completely brilliant.
A few things I wonder about though.
- Do all units who die in a main boss fight get washed ashore (come back)? It seems to me that they do.
- Do each unit have a "preffered class", in which it has most health? I've done some testing, and this really seems to be the case.
And what teams do you guys take? I'm at my 23-man crew now (just upgraded from 17), and I have
1 miner
1 mega carpenter
1 farmer
1 Chef
1 of a class I forgot which is
9 Hardened Soldiers
8 Archers
That's going really well so far, and I have only lost a 4-5 citizens so far (and 3 of them have come back).
A hint if you're going low on citizens: send your entire Royal Guard into the Chapel. You'll get a kid for each couple, train him at the school, and you have another (normally better) adult.
When I write Fact: in one part of the post, and opinion: (or a similar word), it's not because I can then say "my opinion can't be wrong". It is to inform what part is pure facts, and which part I try to draw a conclusion in.
