Romestead Field Manual
Guides built for survival decisions.
Stop reading generic walkthrough blocks. These guides answer the real problems: what to build first, what wastes time, when to fight, and how to keep the colony alive.
Start
Pick any class
The starting bonus is weaker than gear, buildings, and resource flow.
Build
Workplaces before houses
Every unemployed citizen eats food and produces nothing.
Rush
Get cart logistics
One-log hauling is the early-game bottleneck. Cart tech fixes it.
Fight
Prepare for first boss
Leather gear, shield, ranged damage, and cooked food change the fight.
