Stage Coach

"Women and men; soldiers and outlaws; fools and corpses. All will find their way to us now that the road is clear."

- The Narrator

Tips
The Stagecoach is your hero lifeblood. You'll need to recruit additional heroes to fill out a party of four. Drag and drop them into your roster. While you're here, spend some of your starting resources on UPGRADING the Stage Coach network. This will increase the number of heroes available here in the future. To upgrade, click the + symbol on the left and then click the upgrade.

Upgrades
The Stage Coach has three parts to upgrade: the Stage Coach Network, the Hero Barracks and Experienced Recruits.

Stage Coach Network
Upgrading the Stage Coach increases the available heroes for hire each week. The change will take effect after you return from your next quest. Note that regardless of the upgrade level, there will always be enough recruits to go on an expedition; for example if you only have a single adventurer in your roster, you'll have 3 recruits available even if this upgrade hasn't been purchased.

Hero Barracks
Upgrading the Barracks increases the number of the heroes you may keep at a time. In Darkest and Stygian Mode the highest number you can hire is 28. In Radiant Mode the highest number is 30.

Experienced Recruits
Upgrading this provides a chance of higher level recruits appearing in the stage coach. Recruits at higher levels will have their weapons, armor and skills upgraded to the max. While Heroes at Level 0 have can have between 1-2 Negative and Positive Quirk each, for each Resolve Level the hero's minimum and maximum number of Quirks is Increased by 1. For example, a hero at resolve level 2 can have 3-4 Positive Quirks and 3-4 Negative Quirks, and will not have more or less than that.

New heroes will also have additional skills unlocked: level 1 heroes have a 4th camping skill unlocked, level 2 heroes have that and a 5th combat skill unlocked, level 3 heroes will have 5 camping skills and 6 combat skills unlocked. If a hero died in the last expedition, it should guarantee the appearance of a new recruit 2 levels lower (capped by the level available).
