Best outposts in Trumbull Valley map?

[Jacktavius]

Hi all. I'm really enjoying the new update with the Trumball Valley map! Great throwback to SoD1! It's been a long time since I've played it though and they've made a few changes here and there. Has anyone got any suggestions for the best outposts to acquire?

Red Talon FOB is good if you don't have the red talon workshop and/or watchtower, plus it has CLEO built in. For larger and longer term communities, Farmland Compound has the greatest expandability while Fort Marshall has a bunch of built in facilities. I find it harder to balance bed/workshop/infirmary at Fort Marshall but am experiencing a bug with the bed facility bonus in Farmland Compound where it keeps turning on and off the bonus randomly.

Guy above thought you meant bases. As for Outposts, that depends entirely on what you need. Or if you plan to set up a large safe zone surrounding the base.

One in each town is my go-to setup, and then I attempt to cancel the ukpeep cost of my base if I can. If not, that's not a big deal.

My bad outposts yeah just whatever, really depends on what resource bonus's you have coming in from survivors and other sources. The Trumbull landmark is nice for making plague samples and I always have an ammo outpost. Even with a farm or two I tend to have one food outpost. And one med unless I have a Lichenologist. Material outposts usually 2 unless I have a staging area built.

Hey

If it can helps you, here is my base and my map on Trubull Valley (10 survivors, nightmare)

I tried to claim outpost everywhere to always have a supply post not too far. Had to blow few Plage Heart for it.

At the beginning, I didn't plan to build the RT officers beds, because I wanted the 8 beds from the base, but the system is buggy... If it is fixed, i'll replace it for a gym (+30 HP).

I keep an empty large slot in my base for quest-related facilities, but at the end I think it is gonna be a Trade Depot.

I also keep a free outpost slot to be able to claim one if I need an emergency supply (or if I'm lazy to go to the nearest xd).
