Understanding Battle Brothers

​Battle Brothers is a pain in the♥♥♥♥♥ Period. Moderators are crazy and will ban you at the slightest HINT you have an issue with the game. Fan boi's will shred you in the forums, providing no helpful critique while simply telling you to "git gud sun" as though that is the tell all for the game. Guides for the game are brutally over complicated while somehow managing to be completely uniformative and outdated. The game is riddled with flaws, glitches, RNG where there shouldn't be and learning curves that end with a "game over" with you forced to restart and try again.
 
So why play this POS?
 
To be honest half the time I am playing out of spite (I'll get to that in more detail later), most of the time I am not having fun, and the rest of the time I am left wondering what the game COULD have been if it had any REAL leadership in the development team.
 
So ... why play this POS?
 
Turn based games happen to be some of my favorite games, if there were better turn based games around that I haven't put in 1000+ hours into each I'd not be playing this game. Rogue-like seems to have infested the turn based strategy game genre and have made it their own, this is just reality now. XCOM to XCOM 2 is a perfect example of this. If you are like me and want more of a strat game and less of a rogue like game this guide will help you.

I totally agree with your opinion in your introduction, I see it the same way and played this game for some years. I stopped playing vanilla (I lack the joy for nonstop masochistic experiences like BB) and started to enhance and to balance the game with some mods that take some of the worst pain out of the game and add some more flavor, enhancing it greatly for myself, to the point where I can really enjoy BB.

But with the new desert DLC the mods don't work anymore until adjusted for this new version (will take some time for the modders), so I went for your guide, hoping to learn more about the vanilla game. Thanks for this informative guide!
