I’d also suggest picking “Noble War” as your first crisis (it’s uniquely skippable if you aren't ready yet, plus generally the easiest to deal with) and unchecking 'Permanent Destruction'. If you’re just starting play, I’d suggest “Beginner” difficulty, even if you’re a veteran of other strategy games - “Beginner” here just means pricing is more forgiving and you have a little more time to learn everything before encounter difficulty starts ramping up, but doesn't directly change any combat numbers. **This guide has *not* yet been updated for the changes in patch 1.4, which changed a lot of perks and therefore rendered a lot of the guide below, especially the advised builds, badly out-of-date.**

Comments and feedback are not only welcome but deeply appreciated. Please let me know if there are things in this guide you disagree with, parts you feel need to be fleshed out in more detail, etc. It also assumes you're playing the basic game, without cheats, mods, or hacks.

It's a Beginner's Guide, and thus assumes you're either playing on Beginner (because that's what you are!) or Veteran (because you're just that badass). It won’t cover everything, but it will, hopefully, cover enough of the basics so that you can figure out the advanced stuff on your own. This is an attempt to fill that gap with a guide to the basics, with the goal of helping you get to, and through, your first 'endgame' crisis. Battle Brothers is one of the best turn-based tactical combat/RPG games in years, but since it’s an indy project, it’s a little rough around the edges and there’s not much in the way of tutorials.
