Kingdom: New Lands

At around day 60, I knew I had lost. Instead of starting over, I ran to the dock and just waited it out. When I lost my crown, it fell on the dock but they were unable to pick it up. I don't know if anyone can replicate this glitch, but it made this achievement a lot easier than expected



I recreated this glitch on day six, on the first island. Just run to the dock, stand in the position of the first picture. Spend your money along the way to speed things up. Once you hit day five, a blood moon should happen allowing the greed to persist through sunrise. At this point your crown can get knocked off you, falling into the water, or land on the dock behind you. If it falls in the water, you lose, so try again. If it hits the dock, theres a good chance it will pop back up on your head. The second picture shows that you can run forward away from the crown to prevent that. Good luck!

Surviving 100 Days. Sounds tough, huh?

Well, it isn't. At least not really. What it is, is time consuming. Takes several hours. But, they go by fairly quickly if you do something else at the same time. I, for example, had my laptop and was watching youtube videos.

Anyways, you'll want to do this on the first island. Nice, and simple. Enemies come from 1 direction, and you can freely do what you will with the other side.

Here is my advice.

1) Expand a couple of walls outwards in the direction the enemies will come from. You don't need too many, but you do want a place for your troops to retreat if necessary. Do note that I never had my wall completely fall, though.

2) Get about 7 builders. 2 for the catapult on the portal side, and the rest for your general building purposes. That's all you'll really need. (You'll do a couple more if you want to worry about the boat, which I did. As soon as I hit 100 I left).

3) I did this entire thing with only 2 farmers. Depending on how much money you get the first 30 days, this may be all you need as well.

4) The rest are archers. Every day, make sure you pick up at least 1 guy. In total there should be 2 camps, so you should end up with quite a few people. I myself also made knights, but honestly they're not necessary. We're not going to be attacking the portal.

5) Clear the area directly outside you wall, and make sure you actually go a fair ways. Bunnies will spawn in the field outside you walls, and they make a lot of money the first 30 days. Once you hit winter though, you'll start to find money to be a bit more scarce. This is why the couple farmers are useful.

6) Store your money. Store a lot of it. You should be making a ton with the rabbits every day. So don't let yourself overflow, make sure you bank it. You'll never run out if you do.

7) Make sure the Archer statue is always upgraded late game. Once you have all you defenses in place, you won't even need to go watch the attack. You should be confident in you troops ability to whether the attack. After all, I never had a wall fall.
At the very least make sure it is always fully upgraded for the blood moon every few days (mine ended up offset by 2 at the end. So, instead of a Blood Moon on day 100, for example, it would have been on day 102).

8) Use the Archer Towers. Fully upgraded. Make sure your outermost wall has an archer tower behind it, close enough to shoot the enemies. It really is helpful. They take down the flyers pretty quickly.

9) Make sure you get things done quickly late game. The attacks will start to stretch on into the day, so you'll have less and less time before the sun goes down. At day 100, my sun was about 3/4th of the way off the screen when the attack ended.

10) My final tip. It's more of an emphasis on 9. There will be lag. Like, a bunch. So, during the final waves you won't really be able to do anything until the wave is done. You can move well enough, but interacting with things is veeerrrryyy sloooowwww.

That's all I really have. It was actually really easy. I got it on my first attempt. I may have just got lucky with my map generation though, so if you aren't, don't be afraid to try again. Once you get going, it's really simple.

Since I had a few tries to reach the day 101 to get this achievement, I would want to give some advice on the game itself. These are methods I found useful but not all are my own ideas.

To reach the 100th day achievement, I would recommend the following:

1) The most important is to have the unicorn mount. It will give you 3 coins every time you let your mount feed on grass. I had a few tries with a bear and a stag but the unicorn is best for those times you might run out of coins. So play through a few islands first to find the unicorn mount.

2) Have the Bakery Hermit with you. To reach a troop volume over hundreds, you need a baker to lure in the beggars. If you cut down the trees, make sure you leave one tree to each side of the camps.

3) It was recommended to try this with the first island but I didn’t survive there long enough as the winter started on day 30. When I tried in the 4th island the winter started on day 45 and I lasted to 101 day. Do note that you need an island with an archer statue, otherwise it’s up to you.

4) I would recommend a lot of farms, even on mountain portal side with no cottages (upgraded farms). Bank all the coins you have extra, don’t let any of it to go waste or overflow your money bag. I started banking coins on day 3 by giving at least 10x coins to the banker per day (the banker will then run to save it). According to stats my biggest saving was over 1600 coins and still on my last day the vault was full and the coin stack never went down. So, I was more than prepared. During the winter the vault will be your only income as the farmers abandon their scythes and animals stop spawning.

5) If you have portals on both sides (other than 1st land), try to attack evenly on both sides. I know you would be tempted to attack the dock side only but try to even out the sides. Since you will have good defense on both sides it’s easier to take in attacks on both sides than only on one side, if it makes any sense. For example, if you have 2 portals on mountain side and 2 on dock side: attack one from mountain side, defend and then attack one from dock side, defend and repeat. I had only 1 extra wall on my mountain portal side and even if it did fall, the enemies didn’t wipe out my whole town.

6) Have your ship ready as soon as possible. This is your plan B if your town gets overrun. You might need to start over again but take the baker, knights and unicorn mount with you for another try. I had to try a few times and it’s easier if you have a plan B. Make sure you have enough coins to departure; the unicorn will save you in the next land if you don’t have a bag full of coins when you leave the island.

7) If you have the dock side cleared from portals, don’t cut down the trees. Build a wall in a clearing between the forest. Your hunters will then kill every deer that spawns in the forest and when you run out of farmers, you can run to the dock side to collect the coins from the hunters. If you are not in a hurry, it doesn’t matter if the ship takes more time to go through the forests.

8) Clear the mountain portal side forests. I’m not sure if this is truly correct but for me it seemed that the enemies didn’t even have the time to attack since it took so long for them to run from the mountain portal. It could be that they are slower in an open field rather than in the forest. I didn’t have time to test run it as I didn’t want to take any risks in the completion.

9) For defending I would recommend upgrading the archer tower behind the outer wall to a Ballista with the Ballista Hermit (feathered cap). Remember to have extra builders as they will prefer the unmanned ballista over unfinished/broken buildings. If you need to expand, make sure you always have an archer tower BEHIND your outer wall.

10) Whenever you run around the map, remember to stop on grass if your mount is starting to be exhausted. Once it feeds on grass, it has full stamina again. Remember this even when you are being chased by Greed. It might give you a way out so your mount doesn’t get fully exhausted.

11) Lastly, don’t take any big risks. Especially in the beginning, if you have enough coins to set up a well defended camp, don’t explore beyond the first portals. You will find yourself cornered quite quickly if you are too eager to explore the whole island during the first days.

These might be the main points, I don’t think I have anything more to add. By the day 60 you will be quite bored but keep recruiting new archers and save your coins for incidents etc. After you have lots of archers you will experience a LOT of lag. Sometimes I struggled to even drop a coin. So be prepared to work slow in that lag!
