Frostpunk 1 Coal Issues (Hard-Extreme)

​

I always make it a point to rush coal ASAP now cause there are sudden temp drops somewhere mid-late game where you're forced to turn on an ungodly number of steam hubs, heaters and generator power. I get the coal outpost up before day 15 consistently, with at least 2 coal mines. Before the Londoner event lets up, I get up all 3 steam coal mines up, all manned by improved automatons to run through the night (I turn off the heaters for them after, and yes, I put turned-off steam hubs near them so the automatons can recharge)

Still, the coal shortage always becomes dire anyways, even when I've stocked up 10k coal already. Cause it always runs out in less than 2 days even with 10k coal and steam coal mines active 24/7. The instant the generator shuts off, I have to deal with 50 untreated sick and all of my engineers are already occupied. As a result, I usually have to resort to either agitators or triage which I want to be able to avoid to get a better ending.

I already use overdrive from 12-4, I don't know how to fix this issue. It's only fixed permanently after I max out all 3 coal mines and have 6 thumpers and 2 gatherers right around the end of the refugee crisis. Please, does anyone have any advice?

What's the longest last stand you've ever managed?

I counted 78/80 kills on the map. My recount was 80. I want to believe that I killed a lot more. Stocked up with a tonics bag to carry miracle tonics, full provisions, 5 game, 5 big game, special, potent, normal, and opened snake oils, and tobaccos.

In terms of ammo, I had dual volcanics, dual schoffields, lancaster, bolt action, and pump action with max of each ammo. I ran out of my pistol and revolver rounds before going for the shotgun cause I'd run out of my snake tonics at this point. After 2 full days of shootout and what feels like 50 guys going in jumping over the large amorphous mass of bodies going, "Shouldn't have messed with the law!" before getting their head blown off, I just wasn't good enough at shooting to continue without dead eye with the rifle and repeater. I switched to dynamite, dynamite arrows, then looted for more weapons I could use (I learnt here that the police don't drop ammo in a shootout), then died

Altogether, I don't believe that I wasted that much ammo, and spent around a thousand bullets. I also admit that I didn't do everything perfectly. This was the St Denis gun store which had two entrances. When the police go back, they run across the open front door fast and I miss a couple of them when they run across. If they don't get out back, I would've probably been able to hold out longer

Anyone here with a lot more impressive of a shootout? And how so?

Loving the Game

I'm on chapter 2 right now, and I've already explored the whole map and maxed my energy and health and maxed bonded 3 horses. I can't help it, I just love hunting so much

​

I found it so hilarious that I've managed to get myself to low honour through just hunting. When I talked to the lady at the camp to confess my sins or something, all I had to say was that I keep killing animals needlessly, when I always skin them after killing them. I'm also just not advancing cause I want Micah to hang. Disgusting old feller. Hoping that if I stay there at Valentine for weeks that he'll die. Gotta say though that it's funny to keep meeting Kieran after a month of just being a completely green hunter and saying "Kieran, Kieran..." And just being an ass to him even after hew been there for well

.., a month

Yeah... We shouldn't have spent all of our credibility gassing up the previous couple of episodes

We should've done it with this one.

​

Don't get me wrong, the last couple ones were great, but this one had to have been the best character episode for me since the Beatrice on when Subaru and her fly out of the burning mansion. Shit had me clenching my fists on my shirt

​

Istg, if fucking stairs beats this one on IMDb and shows up everywhere as the best episode of this season, I'm gonna fucking crash out. I want to lick Shaula's fermented armpits

[Casual] Let me tell you something. Let me tell you somthing! (In the body text)

If MBA counts as part of Kashimo's kit, then Mahoraga is part of the 10S. My condition for suicidal attacks is that they must be used such that there is a fight after still, so the black hole doesn't count.

Here's the other controvertial explanations:

  1. Ogi is that high cause he's an educated-enough man, who's got to have gone up against other Zenin Clan members for actual decades. When he says that he thinks that he could have taken Naobito's place as the clan head, I don't think it's completely just him being an egotistical senile moron

  2. Haruta is that high cause his hax and kit would just allow him to beat most sorcerers grade 2 and below. Nobara is Semi-Grade 1 because she got recommended for Grade 1 promotion and almost definitely only lost that badly to Haruta due to a bad match-up

  3. Triceratops Panda is above Daido since his Gorilla form was able to take out base mechamaru who would be a semi-grade 1 pretty handily. There are some assumptions here, mainly the one that base kashimo doesn't destroy her without his lightning, that base mechamaru would already be hard-pressed to injure Panda's gorilla form when Panda was saying that his sister was even stronger, that most folks below Panda in the tier list will not be able to defeat her, by merit of her durability

  4. Choso has the durability and healing to outlast his opponents enough to AOE poison-diff them

  5. I think that Dagon beats Kuro in a 1v1 but that Kuro beats more people than Dagon can because of his more difficult kit. Given just even a month, I can imagine Dagon well-surpassing Kuro, but for now, all we have is newly-awakened Dagon who fared quite badly against the cast

  6. Hiromi had a month to refine his domain. He domain diffs Dagon

  7. Angel is this high because of her insane AP to have been able to nearly take out a (albeit heavily nerfed) Sukuna

  8. Megumi and Yuka have Mahoraga. Simple as that. There's a reason why the 10S are held in so high regard despite its most powerful feature being suicidal to use

  9. I think that Gojo beats Heian Sukuna even though Heian-kuna is stronger, but loses (as he does) to 10S 20F Sukuna due to the match-up diff. Dabura may be fast but the rest of the calamities (discounting Takaba) just have strong massive AOE attacks that will just hit him. He also has the worst domain refinement out of any of them so it's just over for him if they get into a domain clash.
