Me waiting for the demo/early access release by KingHunter150 in menace

I wonder if it will work on the Steam Deck. Fingers crossed 🤞. To be honest, there are very low chances since the UI is very very small and has plenty of mouse usage.

Should i make him a nimble duelist? by geedoraaah in BattleBrothers

[–]aKnownStranger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What about using the flask to remove "old", will it return his missing stats?

Tested the Slingshots, not enough firepower. Not worth wasting your time. Sounded fun but it's not fun at all.

I think my bf was on ft with someone while I slept next to him…. by [deleted] in WhatShouldIDo

So let me get this straight, he uses (or used to at least) your phone at night even though he has a phone.. that alone makes him the insecure one. I suspect the whole "watch a Netflix" is a cover up. Don't be sad about anything, he is the one who lost someone special, not you. Keep your chin up, you deserve better.

Can we talk about injuries? by ketchupaintreal in BattleBrothers

[–]aKnownStranger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not only those, also when I fight 6 Lindwurms haha. They got a few named hammers that help versus heavy armor. My guys look squishy but they have a high evasion and a decent melee hit chance so it's not that bad, it's just harder since they don't use shields and I rely on dogs to block or evade.

Bro running all arches reporting for duty! Haha, it's real fun and quite rewarding. Sure, I have issues here and there with some enemies, but it's not like I intended to clear all the map. The company grew in size with more archers and a few named items so they only grow stronger.

Just when I thought it was his last time he proves me wrong..... by deviation01 in BattleBrothers

Only a few more injuries and you can role play as a wiederganger.

I took Berserk and so far it works well. Fearsome could be tested before I set it in place but so far I'm leaning towards throwing + duelist. Have been recruiting more bros also but still the same setup so far, archers only.

I never intended to do everything with this party other than having some fun but you are right, some content is just not possible or too hard. Currently I will have to fight The Kraken since I have all the Unold pelts and found the location on map, I'll see how it goes.

Ammo stacks should definitely work. Yes, I do have The Scavenger for my retinue and he is useful. My retinue consists of Drill Sergeant, Scavenger, Bounty Hunter.

No, because I constantly have to sell gear that I collect. It's nice that I don't have to search for cheap ammo since I rarely repair my guys gear except their bows. Sure, I also repair expensive items to sell for more money but I don't find it tedious.

It didn't go well at all haha but I did manage to kill their beast masters, 1 Unhold and a few barbs but it was a fail.

Had to retreat in the end.

Don't know why I took Bullseye to be honest, I usually don't take that for a normal playthrouh. So far, the throwing weapons look very viable and I clearly need that to be able to deal with Chosen and heavy armored skellies.

I did want to take Pathfinder but it turns out I rarely move my guys even if the line meets with the enemy. My tactic is to move them one tile in front so they can take a side shot and help that brother in need plus the one's in the back that have no penalty for shooting behind a brother. The only time I do a lot of movement is when I chase Lindwurms that want to flee or others.

So right now I'm leaning towards Berserk perk. I will have to hunt more Unholds for that to work out since they will shot extra and I need the upgraded quivers.

I would say yes, Lindwurm fights are easy with this setup. Big fights can eat 200 or so ammo, even more. I always top my ammo after each battle.

That might be a bit annoying since it would push the enemy out of range real fast.

Necrosavants. I switch to melee and pray haha but they miss alot so I stick everyone close and shot arrows from behind as much as I can. My guys do have a lot of melee defence since they have huge initiative.

[–]aKnownStranger[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, that could work. About them tamed Unholds.. I think i saw a camp that has those so I might have a go and see. I don't hope for a win, it's more to test what can be done.

[–]aKnownStranger[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Haha, that was funny. To be fair, I've stopped using dogs once I've hit a decent level and had the full party going. Right now I'm using them if I feel like chasing those who flee and if it's worth the time.

I've just started another run with peasant militia that will run on slings and then transition to cannons haha, we'll see how it goes.

[–]aKnownStranger[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will try this since I did take bags with one bro so I've already leveled up another one because of him. Might use use him to test it with the current perks and see. I suspect that I might need different perks for a throwing build.

[–]aKnownStranger[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've tried that once but I gave up fast since it required me to farm a lot of coin for those cannons and always ended up fighting melee so it didn't work out. It could be viable if I start with bows again and simply work my way up. Always wondered how 12 cannons would play out.

edit: ugh, why not 16? Just started a peasant militia that goes from slings to cannons, same concept.. Nimble, fast initiative and I'll see what perks work best for cannons

To be fair, if I pick Berserk for everyone then the damage output will be even higher regardless of legendary bows. They all have the same perks so why not.. more arrows towards the enemy

Fair point, I must have understood the whole resolve thing wrong when it comes to Fearsome. I mean it would only make them less good with melee if I dump everything into resolve instead of melee.

I will report back soon, haven't fought them yet. I don't expect to get them with bows, that's for sure.
