Brigand Warrior Apprentice Member # 3805	written Saturday, December 20 2003 21:29 Profile Homepage #0 Hello guys! The Spiderweb software forums have a new member. Just saying hi to all of you for the first time. Also, I have a question about the game Ocean Bound. I guess I just need to keep practice or something, but no matter how hard I try to maintain food, all of my people starve to death before the ship is finally ready. I try over and over again: I keep planting crops frequently and I build many storehouses, and after I get the shipyard built, all of my people starve to death before the ship is ready, and I still do what I can while the ship is being set up. Very annoying indeed. Please help. Just wanted to say hi and ask the question. Reply when you can. . -------------------- They're breaching the stronghold! Bring up the drawbridge!

Also, you're replanting the crops, right? -------------------- The Club of All Chance Forums I was once member #2475, but then my account was deleted because of a bug.

Or else o'erleap. Law Bringer Member # 335	written Saturday, December 20 2003 23:42 Profile Homepage #4 It's been years since I've played, but my strategy was to start work on the ship immediately, and always have just enough wood to keep the work going. The rest of my people farmed in the maximum group size (ten, if I recall correctly). You'll only need three or four farm plots at once, and don't put roads over them until they no longer grow at all after planting. —Alorael, who must say he didn't think the game was particularly enthralling. All the levels are much the same. Chop wood. Plant food. Build ship. Next! Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00
