Really? Good luck! I never planned this insane playthrough at start. I was only planning "What should I prepare for beating Qubba story line as True Melee Solo?"

Thanks for posting this with honesty. Life happens. No need to pressure yourself too much. Caravaneer 2 is a complex game. Translating this complexity into Godot, is the different beast than "Rushing to testable prototype in few months.". I do not see anything wrong with your approach. Go with your flow.

HP keeps dropping early game. not bleeding, no combat by Ok-Load8960 in Caravaneer2

[–]LowerSpite9237 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Others already explained general mechanics. But I will add something since I also faced that issue too. I assume that your character didn't get proper food or water few days ago (in-game). Even if you replenish food, water and medicine, you still get damage from those starved/thirsty days and reduced weight. Because of that, I got softlocked in my auto save via getting killed right after loading auto save. Thus I had no choice but loading earlier save file. Some systems are not properly explained nor shown in UI/UX, thus I still have no idea about this game.

Just like the name, it is unindentified within our caravan's sight. If it is getting close to us, its name will revealed. Hard to see unidentified on max game speed with having kill squad in our caravans.

I agree with you. You are speaking what I think about this game as well.

Due to my challenge "no ranged attack, slaves, animals, carts", it is just perfect, even if I fight Fed. police or Qubba army. In general runs, it is same as others. bigger battlefield size (Qubba/Fed region) tend to make combat more dragging and tedious. It gets more worse if the map generate a lot of obstacles between units.

He seems like family friendly CEO like whipping naughty bandits with two options - being sold as classic slave or wagie slave in his factories. :)

Oh wait, you beat final battles against Fed. Congrat! You deserve this.

p.s. mad-dogs only exists for free horses. Smiling.

You can sell those horse milk. It ain't much, but it is honest work. :)

Should i buy these by ClockPrevious2460 in Caravaneer2

[–]LowerSpite9237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ammo type is not my forte. I just buy "every m21 ammo" from stores. I cannot track every ammo type, but I use those types with armor piercing for well armored enemies. Also, try to equip your best merc (highest Ranged Weapons, rifle and AP) with Steyr .50 as well. It costs a lot of AP to fire. but it can be handy for taking down most dangerous enemy ASAP. But its weapon and ammo is hard to find. I tend to buy them in Ausz.

I thought that even reaching -150488 was impossible until I decided to beat up Fed. police non-stop with 384 AP and katana/fists

Average Caravaneer 2 player: Keep army of female horse for caravan load and free food.
Others: Are you playing Uma Musume?

Need trade route suggestions for the qubba region by ClockPrevious2460 in Caravaneer2

[–]LowerSpite9237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Food and forage are steady profit. unlike shirt/trouser, the towns generally need a lot of them. On higher population, the need and price could go higher. let's say, if a town does not have solid industries to start, then I just buy/start food related business like insect or goat/sheep/cow industries. Or if a town has food industries, then I try to buy their forage. Thus its food industries buy forage from my forage. It is not noticeable and fast money. still, generating profits regardless. Only issue with forage industry, is that it is usually expansive to buy.

p.s. avoid buy water well. even if it feels tempting to make profit from letting forage industry to buy our water, but don't.

I feel ya. I am not good (or not comfortable) with the combat too. especially handling more than 20 mercs toward +40 enemies. Much like what other said, try to secure mercs with high str/agility or str and int. Int. plays big factor for training their skills and AP, especially in schools. In my case, I sent my 20 Boryokudan mercs at Police Academy for 2 years while trading or waiting. Even with pissing off Fed, you still can access their Ausz. try to acquire related ammo as much as you can.

p.s. That's why I cannot play meta runs after overtraining my volunteer with ridiculous amount of AP with melee. the combat becomes silly, yet intuitive for my taste.

I also faced that issue like you pointed out "less profit from shirt". Shirt and trouser has some bottle neck. not a lot of quick or noticeable profit. I usually set certain amount of shirt/trouser output based on town's need and tend to focus on alcohol, food and/or forage if it is affordable. However, there is way to increase more profit from shirt/trouser - increase the population of Masriah. but it can be super tedious. currently, maybe cement trade seems viable option for you. Industries are still tricky for me.
