I sneaked in a new campaign creation...

I didn't change the titles, just the names. This one is named after Josh:

All three of them play BB. I'll add myself once we hire someone awesome ;-)

Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Well, he really is fine with it. This literally happened 10 seconds after I loaded the game. How's that for procedural storytelling.

Well I was going to spend time with my girlfriend tonight, but I'll be ignoring her now.
Buy a copy for her. Then you both will have something to talk about, and some of the in-game scenes might serve as a nice introduction into BDSM!

If your girlfriend doesn't play games, then well, fine one that does.

Good thing they added that fast forward feature. Its small stuff like that expands a game audience by a lot.

I got a really strange map. The northern parts was not connected by road to the south. Just feels weird. And one contracts would get me 200 gold for traveling all the way up there. Seems kinda low for traveling all across the known world with no roads in sight.

Just had to buy this one and support our bros, and barely beat the bandit fort, when going back to the city got ambushed by more bandits -> full party wipe.

A few issues
- it would be nice if there was some sort of a warning before an ambition fails because I took too long
- it seems it's no longer possible to enter towns while you pass through them with a caravan, which sucks because sometimes you need to sell stuff to have enough for payments, buy tools or use a temple
- sometimes the turn doesn't automatically pass when you have no AP left but I don't know what causes it

Took a simple caravan job as my first mission. Had a decent 10-man squad, where all front-liners had shields and helmets. Direwolves took out 1 brother, then ran into 5 goblins, where one skirmisher one-shotted 4 (!) of my bros.

And now 8 thugs on the same trip against my 5 remaining brothers and the caravan guards, that for some reason are not participating at all.

Is escorting caravans supposed to be automatic? They seem to travel really fast too, no chance of seeing or avoiding incoming threats :(

This. I liked visiting towns and villages while the escorted caravan trudged slowly forward.

Lucky!

Edit:

Here is my first hour of the new beta:

Surprisingly my company is not dead yet.

Lost half my band because roman skeligntons are immune to spear damage and then got chased down by an orc hunting party. Thought that I was finished but my bros held off and slaughtered the Orc Young without a single casualty.
