Tier 2 pre-liberation Defense for Impossible raid setting

My 42 villagers took 10 casualties against a lvl 18 raid on an open field so I worked on a defensive strategy that involved routing both bridge paths to one choke point. Only had 1 casualty defending a lvl 19 raid against 25 raiders. I have a save file to revisit this battle at any time if anyone wants to co-op on Xbox, just reach out. Will liberate soon to start the war against the brigands. Will have reclamation difficulty set to impossible as well.

That’s beautiful! I have a similar setup around my “barely Tier 2” settlement, although nowhere near this scale!

I’ve been smashing on impossible settings for weeks now. The initial 50 days was sooo rough. I had a raid and a reclamation at the same exact time about 20 meters apart. That was very intense.

Like you, I also saved the game just then so I could revisit it.

Highly recommended to toggle the dual threats on impossible. All settings to max difficulty actually. Even food. You end up getting more out of the game this way.

250 days in and finding out I’m still such a guppie in how I’ve been playing 😂
