How much of the content is accidentally missable, and is there anything particularly important to watch out for?

In the first round of the martial arts tournament I got paired up with Higgins and it was the most anticipation I'd felt about video game combat in a long while
I got paired up with Arlo and was rather worried about the fact.

Turned out that he was stuck fighting a stream of monsters near the station crash site so I instantly won both rounds.

Get 5/5 Intensive training, 4/4 strike, 2/2 Mastery of Pickaxe & Axe in that order first. IT gives bonus xp, Strike increases ALL damage, not just weapons so pickaxes and axes also do more per swing and take less overall to save stamina. The last two are pure 50% reduced stam use
Wouldn't it be best to go for 2/2 Mastery of Pickaxe/Axe first before picking IT? -50% reduced stamina translates into +100% experience from mining/chopping (since you get to make twice as many swings), which is where most of your XP in the first month comes from anyway, -and- doubles your materials gain.

The Arvio/Ameerah picnic event happened on a sandstorm day, which made the whole thing rather bizarre.

BTW what are people naming their workshops? Mine is "Dustworks," which I thought was pretty good since I'm normally terrible at naming things.
"The Secret Lair", written in large letters on a helpful sign.

I believe the best way to get people to ask for non-fish-based products is to grow stuff; the game doesn't start generating requests for items until you can actually produce those items. It's the same sort of thing where the game won't let townspeople ask for Perfect-quality items until you build a Refiner
Once you do build a refiner, however, they will gleefully commission perfect versions of items that require as-of-yet unavailable gems to refine.

So Matilda has just put up a donation box for the bridge repair. It has a bunch of "Donate Item" options, but clicking on them only tries to take my money.

Is it a bug, a Church scam, or me doing something wrong here?

Time to build a wizard tower and start shooing away all the bachelorettes from the top floor.
Mine is a lighthouse: a solid stone tower with the top floor ringed with windows that all light up at night.

For Sandrock, you can take commissions every day, even on weekends.
And that change came to pass because Yan found a loophole in labor laws. :allears:

How does multiplayer work in this exactly?
The story isn't available in multiplayer, I've heard. What else?
It's a sandbox, even more so than Sandrock already is. 1 to 4 players, all sharing the same workshop and gols. You do stuff (build, fulfill commissions, complete daily tasks, fight, date, play minigames, etc.) to unlock more stuff to do.

They originally planned to have a separate campaign set in the past (and you can still find characters from it on the wiki), but that's been scrapped.

Ever since someone misleadingly sold me on Planescape Torment as a game where you keep getting weaker and losing body parts and stuff as the game goes on, I've it he'd for a reverse power curve game.
Some of the scenarios in Frostpunk operate on that kind of curve.

I wonder what Yan says if you do cheat by editing your game and putting Mi-An in first place for the yearly competition.
