It’s a reminder that pushing for maximum battery life can quickly backfire, leading to unexpected problems and regrets.

A player named Key_Apartment9029 shared a clever strategy for the game: treat new towns like resource-producing colonies instead of equal partners. The idea is to have these colonies focus solely on gathering raw materials – like barley or stone – while your main town handles all the processing into finished goods, such as ale or building materials. It’s a simple concept: specialize the colonies, keep them running, and feed your main town’s economy. Other players commenting on the post believe this approach could help overcome some of the game’s biggest challenges and make it more enjoyable.

Another player pointed out that it’s difficult to build a strong economy when even basic necessities like grain are so costly.

The original poster expressed this sentiment, hoping for a map pool that the community can generally agree on.
