The War is Over going into Night 42. Maybe I got lucky or maybe watching a few of @Travis7401 's videos really helped me get off on a good step but that was much easier than I expected. I'm gonna go with just getting lucky. I feel like I had the best team. Bruno was a great cook. Katia was great at bargaining. Roman was great with combat and Pavle was a good runner. What else do you really need? I could have made it to the end with Pavle alive but I wanted to see how far I could push some folks living in an apartment complex. I realized their breaking point when the dude pulled out a shotgun and blasted me.
The Hatchet/keeping the temp in the 50's during the hard cold winter really saved me. Being able to break down furniture at home and on scavenging runs to get fuel was huuuuuuuuge. I also ended up building a pistol. The herb shop to make cigarettes was big as Roman and Bruno love to smoke. The alcohol still was huge in trading.
I only "stole" twice in the entire playthrough. Funny thing is, prolly 1/2 of the items i stole I never used. Broken flak jacket, broken shotgun and broken helmet I never repaired/used. I ended the playthrough with like 7 can foods and 7 raw food while my medicine stores were at like 6 bandages, 5 herbal meds and 4 regular meds. I never had a day or night where I though, "If I don't get *this item*, I'm screwed".
Still had an absolute blast though and envision myself doing multiple playthroughs.
