How to unlock and mission objectives

How to start: unlocked after completing The Coast of Bones

Mission objective:

1. Colony population: 1,500.
2. Survive the attacks of all hordes.
3. Special properties of the map: Rich farming (+30% food received from Farms).

The mission

Start expanding your base in the usual way. This is the first time where you are able to build a Quarry without expanding your base's territory.

1. Keep in mind the special property of the map - it increases the amount of food produced from the Farm by 30%, making it an even more efficient way of obtaining food.
2. Start by placing 3 Tents, then a Fisherman's Cottage, Hunter's Cottage, and then place a Sawmill and Quarry. In the meantime, build a dozen additional Tents.

As the days go by, the forces coming from the north will keep growing. Remember to strengthen the fortifications in the north.

1. Send a small part of the starting army to clear the way to the north, and place one Ranger in the tower near the northern wall - this unit will stop a few waves of enemies coming from the north. The horde of infected will come from the bridge located in the north.
2. Build a Soldier's Center as soon as possible and start training new units. Use them to clear the rest of the map - there are several hundred infected on the island, however. Once you eliminate them, new enemies won't appear.
3. Capture the entire map to the west of the starting site - there are several deposits of gold, stones, and iron, and the enemy hordes will not attack from there. This means that you don't have to place troops or create fortifications in that place.

This is the first time you will face Chubbies.

1. During this mission, you will encounter Chubbies for the first time (not counting tactical missions) - these are heavily armored infected. Make sure that the Chubbies don't reach your units - 2-3 strikes are enough to kill any unit.
2. Start recruiting more units around 40th day - mostly Snipers and Soldiers. Build a solid double wall fortification on the bridge located to the north of the base. For its safety, it is better to install an additional two rows of walls in case the first line collapses.
3. On the 50th day, a huge Infected Swarm will come from the bridge - this is the largest horde out of those you have faced so far. You have to kill several thousands of enemies, including dozens of Chubbies.

Tips

The final wave is enormous, however, the mission gives enough time to prepare a defense.

Below you can find a few tips that will help you complete this mission:

1. There won't be any Infected Swarms until day 50. Use this time to clear and occupy the western part of the starting site - there, you will find a lot of places to build Farms, as well as several deposits of gold, stone, and iron.
2. With the following days, more and more infected will cross the bridge located north of the base. Keep sending some of your troops to protect those fortifications.
3. For your own safety, you should build an additional double-row bridge, below the main one - this will allow you to withdraw units in case the enemy breaks through the first line of fortifications.
4. Snipers are very effective - they are perfect against the Chubbies. Remember, there are a lot of them on the map, and the final wave will have even more of these units.
