HI Dark, Well, I must confess I have the Castaways bug too. If you can't see it my clock on my desk says the time is 3:08 AM in the flipping morning. The reason I'm up so late past my bedtime is Castaways. I've been playing it on and off all night. I switch between it and e-mail. I set a few

2011-07-15 Thread alex wallis
Hi list. I know what the two farm types are for in castaways, however I do have a few questions. How much stuff does each farm produce? I am wondering so that I can keep my number of farms in proportion to population size. obviously I assume the more farms you have the more farmers it is better

Hi, I think this is my problem as well. I am use to calculating stats like in SoundRTS, and am having enormous difficulty adapting to way farms are used in Castaways. I think it is a good idea, but I've had serious trouble getting my farms to produce what I need in the right amounts to keep my

hi tom. Yes, building many farms is a mistake, sinse unlike in sound rts, buildings really take work in castaways. I myself usually just stick to two vedge farms, one wheat and one vinyard, with one farmer for each farm and perhaps some extra. At the end of my last game, i had 7 farmers

Hi Dark, Wow! You are a wealth of information here. Sheesh, some of my games I must have went really overboard with the farming. Lol! In one of my games I had four vegetable farms, four wheat farms, and three vinyards. I didn't realise that was too much. Lol! Well, I can say is I'll chuck it up

Hi tom. blame it on playing way too much castaways ;D. It's odd, I don't usually find stratogy games my first choice. Games like sound rts and time of conflict I tend to pick up, play for a couple of days and then put way for several months again. I think this is mostly because of my
