as an autrian supremacist sawyer is also a foremost servant of God and the Vicar of Christ, the pope/duke/bishop of Rome
where did the whole hurr durr 'white power Sawyer' meme originate?
that's called "cultural catholicism", I respect actual practitioners and believers in Jesus Christ.dunno, on the flip-side you have Sawyer who loves the game but is a complete douchebag when it comes to religion and quite obviously dislikes anything even vaguely Catholic. I can respect Sawyer's love for the game but I won't pretend to respect the guy himself.
Where do you get this idea that Sawyer dislikes anything even vaguely catholic? Is that your meme intuition because he is supposed to be a "leftie"? Stop inventing your own reality based on your preconceptions, don't be dumb.

This game is highly christian.
Jews are notably absent. Make of that what you will.
I guess you're not supposed to get attached to your guys too much?
I see little point in not maxxing STR for all characters considering it doubles as HP.
Getting healed up is just a big hassle it seems to me. I assume the play is to have a guy rest at the inn while the others go out to pay rent but I can't seem to break even with the cost. Do I get paid more the more famous I get or how does that work? The manual doesn't say.If you lose in combat, most enemies will just kick the crap out of you and take most of your possessions but let you go. So if one of your party is about to be killed in combat, it's often best to surrender. You'll have to work your way back up to getting reequipped, but at least you've still got your skills.
What about Agility? The manual says it mostly serves to dodge missile attacks, not melee attacks though. But it also says it affects a character's speed but idk by how much and if high AG makes a noticeable difference. Will probably have to experiment with that.Everyone should have STR of 30 at least, probably closer to 40. As long as their endurance gets knocked out before strength, they'll just collapse and live to fight another day.

You're supposed to make a 70 year old alchemist during character creation, take his potions, ditch him, then max strength for all your characters.HP is agonisingly slow to recover and good armor is expensive for the early game. Doesn't help that walking in the wilderness is a bit of a crapshoot encounter wise. I guess you're not supposed to get attached to your guys too much?

You can transfer the starting party's equipment to a new character. I think their equipment can be copied repeatedly.That's one way to do it. Just remember that all characters made after your initial party won't start out with equipment. (I don't think? I can't remember, I rarely use that feature.)
While not a perfect match there is a lot of Darklands in Battle Brothers.Are there any other historical RPGs like Darklands?
If not, why?
It's not historical at all. It's just "lower" fantasy than usual which gives a different feel from most crpg or crpg-ish games that are set in pseudo-medieval fantasy settings. However this is not a historical feel.While not a perfect match there is a lot of Darklands in Battle Brothers.Are there any other historical RPGs like Darklands?

It is amazing when it comes to historical work that went into it. It's an effort that belongs to another gaming era.Nobody is ever gonna make the same effort you can see in Darklands manual, let alone the game. Even the fucking music is from the right time & area (main theme by Konrad Paumann, actually the oldest keyboard music known). Alchemy, the saints, the medieval hours, weapons... it is astounding. It is the only game I know whose manual has a fucking bibliography section, heh.

Whoa looky who's upset and why.Meh. Pong was a better crpg.
I don't disagree with that.It's not historical at all.

But i'm a big fan so to everyone who likes tactical combat and by some miracle didn't play it - do it now.
