Hi Battle Brothers!
As a big fan of turn based strategy, I'm thinking of buying this game now that it's the big steam sale.
My question is, how does saving work? Can I save in as many slots as I want? can I save at anytime I want? even during combat?
Are there seeds for the saves to prevent save scumming?
I did google but got conflicting answers.
EDIT: I bought the game, mods please delete this.

You can save as much as you want outside of combat, not in combat. There's a quicksave key (f5). Save Scumming is definitely a thing. There are seeds for maps, but you can run the same map multiple times and get very different games, the seed just controls the map itself.
I'm 250 hours in and I didn't know you can quick save...
Don't feel bad. I wrote a guide for the game ( https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=902880552 ) and I just figured out quicksaving worked like, last week. I don't even know that it's documented anywhere, I just hit f5 to see if it would work and it did.
Thank you!
If you don't choose Ironman Mode, you can create any amount of named saves when you want. You can also Quick-Save (F5) and Quick-Load (F9). There's also an Auto-Save that is created before every battle.
Not during combat, seeds are for when you start a run, to feed the random generator used for the map, settlements, bros and some other aspects
Thanks a lot!
