So I travelled to the fourth island in norse campaing, and not many days passed before winter came. I think this is a grave noob mistake, since what happens is I couldn't really generate meaningful currency in this period. I collected berry and chopped trees, but I could barely scrape by. Now when the snow finally disappeared, the enemy raids have grown relentless. I've managed to increase my currency, but I'm spending it just as fast desperately reparing from the night's raids. Every night I'm getting hammered from both sides, and im losing people and walls faster than I can acqure currency to replace them. Even worse, my people who get bummified walk so fucking far away, I have to waste an entire day travelling to the edge of the map to recruit them back, losing a couple to portals on the way back.

Feels like I'm in a death spiral where the raids will inevitably overpower me at this point.

Am I right in that moving to the fourth island before winter is just a run ender, nothing I can do?

Last time I played Kingdom was... After the Norse Lands update I think? I never actually got around to playing that expansion though

Anyway, I remember that back then, if you cleared one side of the island, your troops would just stand over there uselessly. It took me until clearing the left side of the final island (Shogun setting, Cursed difficulty, on my third reign) for me to realize that they actually move to the other side now!

I know some people might be bummed out by the Horn Hermit being useless now, but personally I never used them anyway, since it'd take a full day for the stupid troops to slowly walk over to the other side anyway

Honestly I kinda wish they'd release a difficulty that ramps up quicker, or takes longer to beat or something. I really enjoyed having to do this campaign across multiple reigns, and I wish I could've made this run last longer. I think I'm gonna keep the cliff portal up and see how long I can last
