So, according to Steam, I have 479 played hours on Battle Brothers as of this posting. As you can probably tell, I really love BB. I don't read or watch a lot of strategy postings on BB, as I prefer to discover things on my own. As I stated earlier, I do save scum, and I will not allow a member of my company to die, but I do allow permanent injuries. One thing I have learned, both during my current campaign and the previous one....shields are invaluable in the early to mid game, but need to be swapped out for two handed weapons once your men reach level 15ish. Most of my company are around level 14 to 16 at the time of this posting. I believe the level cap is something like 30.
