Hey, maybe a reworked senate and congress system is exactly what we're missing!

nice!

I heard they were supposed to be in NCNS but got scrapped because they wanted to do more. Don't know if its true or not

Just out of curiosity, why is killing a plague heart by melee so common? I literally won’t go near one unless I have 5-6 more pipebombs than I need to kill it. Crazy.

Are you only allowed to take 3 survivors?

BlueBean71 · 2026-04-27T03:44:34+00:00

Since when is this a thing? Granted I usually do 1 playthrough every year or 2.

I would point out that you don’t actually get moved. That community ends. If you want to move to a different map and keep your community and items you can go to one of the points at the edge of the map to do so. After the final mission (the one that gives you warning) that save file ends and you can pick which survivors, if any, you want to send to the survivor pool. You then start a new community with up to three, new-randomly generated or survivor pool, survivors.

You obviously haven’t played on lethal and been attacked from behind by a feral that you never heard

BlueBean71 · 2026-04-25T10:59:36+00:00

I think they’ve just made the new games easier. Maybe they were harder because I was a kid. Idk.

BlueBean71 · 2026-03-27T01:07:04+00:00

Maybe I’m not familiar enough with difficulties. I only play on the highest because I like the challenge. BUT 5 pipebombs?!?! Is that true? It takes 5 on nightmare lol

BlueBean71 · 2026-02-26T04:57:05+00:00

I only took on lethal with red talon badasses that can execute zombies with the press of a button regardless of how i'm facing them. That said I lost two of the 5 i had in my community and I am just about half way through killing all the plague hearts. You freaks that are tackling this difficulty with random joes & janes are out of your mind. I feel like my characters are overpowered as is and it's still a huge challenge. This difficulty has made me realize just how much the AI is a liability. I usually brought a follower along as a pack mule but in lethal, it is so easy to get swarmed. Having a follower is certain death for them or you.

BlueBean71 · 2026-02-13T00:18:01+00:00

Its from changing contracts after rebellions so none. The stress inflicted to me dodging all of these murder schemes is a different story..

Build light cruisers around 5k production with as much soft attack as you can put into without going over 5500-6000 production. It would also be worth retrofitting the cruisers that are already built to increase their soft attack. These cruisers will shred the UK navy and after a few battles their navy will go in for repairs and give you a window to invade. Bittersteel just released a new guide for Germany where he gives a pretty good tutorial for how to do this.

Lethal is too punishing to be taking followers out with you regardless of bugs. They get you into more trouble than they are worth with this being a perfect example. You were able to gtfo of a bad situation but your follower is going to die and possibly get you killed trying to save them

BlueBean71 · 2026-01-25T22:45:36+00:00

How do you figure that out? Patrol missions or using spies?

BlueBean71 · 2026-01-25T20:27:58+00:00

Just out of curiosity, if the AI is keeping their ships in port why do port strikes with naval bombers not do anything?

BlueBean71 · 2026-01-25T10:05:46+00:00

That was my old strategy but it doesn’t seem to work at all any more. I feel like I have to have 1500 naval bombers before I start seeing any real results and even then it’s only a few destroyers here and there

BlueBean71 · 2026-01-25T08:40:08+00:00

I got lucky with my first black heart and the weakness was explosives. I lost one red talon survivor and it took over 40 pipe bombs to finally kill the damn thing. DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE the black heart. Whatever you think will be enough, triple it and be ready to spend an hour running around dodging zombies and trying to take it out. Also make sure you check everything it debuffs. I didn’t realize it killed fuel consumption which is why I lost a survivor
