It was likely a mistake to neglect the mine like that though, but sacrifices must be made if one is to survive the cold! It helped me build up the food and wood sources faster since the mines were a drain on my already low wood and food supplies. The third settlement provided additional metal but I felt like it wasn’t really needed all that much because it was one of the resources I had in abundance already so I kind of neglected that one for a while in my second go of it. New London definitely didn’t make it easy for me though and having to rely on food and wood from the settlements due to having nothing available at my outpost made it a real challenge. I will admit I failed the first go around, but managed to scrape by in my second attempt. It worked out fine enough though in the end. The very limited resources were also a problem and actually lead to me having to smash some of my existing infrastructures in order to trade it for other missing resources. The On the Edge scenario itself is problematic due to the lack of proper heat sources but that just added to the challenge. It’s a fun mechanic and one that would have been right at home in the base game. With your help the settlements will grow, you will gain favour with them and eventually, a regular stream of resources will flow from the settlement… kind of like how New London was with you… except you actually did something to earn it. In exchange for whatever resource they provide, you will either give resources or infrastructure/labour to the settlement. This is a new mechanic for the game overall as it allows trade between the settlements and your outpost. The Construction Crew also can build up safe routes between your outpost and the settlement. You lose the unit when the Trading post is completed though. Once the Scouts have made contact with another settlement, the Construction Crew can move there and set up a Trading Post.

The new unit Construction Crew functions similar to the Scouts. It won’t be easy building up all four settlements (including your own) but as this is an Advanced scenario anyone with familiarity with the game should be up for the challenge. Conveniently there is one for each of the major resources you will need. I won’t share any more of the storyline than that, but the basic idea is that in Frostpunk: On the Edge it is all about making safe routes between the various settlements your scouts discover. New London feeling threatened that you are no longer dependent on them demands the food be sent to them for distribution and you draw the line in the snow at that. You make contact with another settlement than was fortunate enough to find a hot spring and begin to work with them to improve their settlement in exchange for some of their excess food. Eventually, they go too far and you are forced to find an alternative food source in the barren wastes around you. Unfortunately, New London has all the power in the relationship and uses your food supply as a control mechanism. You are heavily dependent on New London to feed your people while in trade you supply resources back to New London. Rather than being a mostly self-reliant city that expands its domain with outposts, you are one of the outposts. I didn’t have the luxury of playing the previous DLCs so I can’t compare it to those but I can tell you I did enjoy this twist on the Frostpunk core gameplay. Frostpunk: On the Edge is not only a new campaign, but it also adds a few other new elements into the mix.

Frostpunk is a game all about huddling around the generator for warmth however, when you are living On the Edge you don’t have such luxuries.
