build a base, explore the map, kill the undead ;)
Can you tell me how far you got? I am slowly adding better help/information, so it would be helpful to know where people get stuck.
First time I tried, I didn't get very far at all - I just ordered people to make some fields, some houses, some guard. But then after a few turns I noticed there were no more people (so I assume they were killed by the enemies?)
The second time I tried I did something similar, but left a few people idle, so this seemed work a bit better (I'm guessing they can only either fight or do the assigned task, so I shouldn't give orders to everyone?) - Unlike my first try the number of people increased and the area they occupied grew. But after a while it stagnated - I seemed to have a lot of people standing and doing nothing, while only a few were fighting. They got outnumbered eventually, and suddenly the game ended (so I assume they were killed?) I'm assuming I can fight off the undead by building barracks and setting up guards, and maybe the church, but I couldn't figure out how to effectively manoeuvre the resource to fend off the undead.
Hope this helps
Thanks for the explanation! I will look into this. I'm guessing you did not build houses, or only very few. I will need to add more information to convey how important houses are. I usually start out by building 6 houses at once. Every house produces more people, but the amount of people you can have at any time is limited by the amount of food you provide.
