163: Arborec Strategy Guide

It’s the last time that finishing the 17th of a thing will mean we are done with that project. It’s been a project over a year in the making, but today marks the end of our base game faction Strategy Guides. And to wrap things up, we have a faction that required some time. And if we hadn’t had an expansion so closely on the horizon, we may have let it bake a little while longer. But even a little while longer in the over wouldn’t have made these plants any better, and so perhaps it is as it should be. This guide is not hopeful, but it is honest, and the truth is that Arborec is a very bad faction, and it’s going to take some serious work and some serious luck to find success. So, let’s talk about how best to make that happen (or not, man. I can only do so much!). 11:44- Overview 40:03 - Problems 50:15 - Round One Strategy Cards 1:08:16 - Tech Paths 1:26:53 - Trading/Meta 1:31:40 - Mid-Game 1:33:40 - Late Game  1:43:39 - Nekro Virus Errata 1:51:41 - Arborec and Barony of Letnev Commanders and Objective: Improve Infrastructure.   Music provided by Ben Prunty.
