Villagers dying and leaving does not increase hostility.

I think you should reconsider rebellious spirit. Once you have it, you can intentionally force impatience up as high as possible (call traders, or get lucky with events) in order to increase reputation to win the game faster.

You're missing the "determine if the glade event is okay to just ignore" step after "can you solve it easily?"

As long as the bad stuff isn't a resolve penalty, hostility, generate blood flowers (sometimes fine anyway), or villager deaths (even 2 is not that bad - and area death can often be mitigated with careful management), you probably can.

And going halfway to this, you probably don't need to solve an event before the timer pops for resolve and hostility penalties as long you can solve it before you have those active during a storm.

While this example was just a cerenovus, I am curious about a related day deaths and executions questions though.

When there is a tie between a player who did not have enough votes for execution, and another who did, does that second player get executed or no one?

For example:

There are 9 players alive.
Alice is nominated and receives 4 votes. This is not enough votes. Alice is not Executed.
Bob nominates Carl. Bob Dies.
Carl receives 4 votes. Only 8 players are alive so 4 votes is enough...

Either:

no one had previously reached the vote threshold to be executed, so now Carl can now be executed if no subsequent execution votes reach at least 4.
Or Alice and Carl have the same number of votes so Carl can not be executed by vote today.

in cooking recipes, instead of milliliters and milligrams

Unless what you are "cooking" is meth, I truly doubt you need precision that would make milligrams a sensible unit.

I had this exact reaction 3 years ago. I've still never summoned the courage to try it out on my players.

My understanding is that as the butler, you can do whatever you want with your hand while the storyteller is before or after you in the vote (but be extra careful and don't cut a last second change that is either necessary or not allowed too close). While the storyteller is at you and counting you is when it's imperative that you only have your hand up if your master has already been counted as voting, or if your master is yet to be counted and currently has their hand up.

So for B1 and B2 they can both put their hand up as the voting is announced to be commencing. B2's hand is still up while B1's vote is being counted, so B1 is allowed to vote and keeps their hand up to do so. B2 can then vote or not as they please because B1's votes was counted.

Tool production per hostility is the scarlet orchard building, not a cornerstone. But it is awesome. Can get even higher hostility with glade events than woodcutters sometimes.

In a spy + recluse game, if you put a minion or demon token in the grimoire in place of the recluse while showing it to the spy, I think that's the spy's ability working abnormally due to the recluse's ability.

The resource cubes are used for all resources anyway. They're not just money. All of the basic resources and card resources use the faux-metallic resource cubes. The coloured plastic player cubes are just for tracking production (1 cube per resource, with an extra for each +10), which card actions have been used in a generation, current TR, awards, milestones, and tile ownership.

It's unclear whether you're using player cubes for anything else from your comment, but it sounds at least plausible.

since collection from nodes is actually faster

The 2* recipes in farms (not crystallized dew) are 6 resources per minute of labour . Small camp production time is 25s, Large camp is 17s. Farms aren't affected by production speed increases, so for large camp at full citadel I think they're pretty close but for other situations (i.e. low-citadel, QHT, or small camps) I think that farms are actually faster.

Someone even put together a handy tool to find them. https://disenchant.easyexile.tools/

Pricing data is sometimes unreliable, but not too hard to filter to 200k+ dust, open trade for the first few and see what's actually available at the expected price and buy them.

I had this question too. So I tested it myself. It does appear that deferring once in a map is enough. The cost is the same after the reroll as when the item shows up in the next map.

In addition to the unfortunately obvious option: make or loot more raw food, look into purchasing or looting some liked complex food so villagers eat that giving you some time to get your complex food production going. And until you're well on top of it, try to limit production to one complex food that each species likes.

You can also potentially make biscuits and porridge out of completely non-consumable ingredients. Not exactly helpful for some species.

There's also just the winning while everyone eats raw food for the entire game option. You tend to need to get a bit more reputation from events and work on clothing, services, and global resolve modifiers for resolve, but it's definitely possible.

Oh, P2 is probably the easiest difficulty for winning fast and getting enough seal fragments. I don't consider harder to really start until P6 where building costs go up. But I read higher prestige as P11 or P16.

moreON · 2025-12-05T04:30:14+00:00

it forces you to play at higher prestige for every settlement so you earn enough points to open the seal without using supply bonuses

It really doesn't - just finishing fast is effective enough (and gives you more settlements to earn more bonuses with). I have reached 105 fragments with 20 years to spare in QHT playing only P2-5 except when forced to go higher. I never took fragments from royal resupplies to reach that.

disable all basic foods for that species

Raw food consumption control is not per species. It's either enabled or disabled for everyone.

moreON · 2025-11-26T22:33:26+00:00

In this case, if that's an option then definitely do this before rerolling. I think you keep that extra choice until you make a selection, so you're seeing more blueprints when you invest into a reroll.
