Walkthrough Anno 2205

Anno 2205 arrived on PC on November 3, 2015. This is the latest building simulation series where players are challenged to build the city of their dreams. This time around, things will go much further, as in Anno 2205 you will take humanity to the next technological level by building your own colony on the moon.

As in other games of this type, you will manage several settlements and coordinate trade relations between regions. Below you can see the guide that was put together in close collaboration with the Anno 2205 development team.

Which city layouts to use in which environment

When building and further looking after the settlements, you will have to pay attention to a large number of little things. Every residential building or production site needs energy and communications. Below are some tips to help you create an efficient infrastructure.

• Try to plan ahead. Consider the size of the modules and the number of tiles when building a city.
• Use the move tool to select the best place to build.
• The farther a house is from a public building, the more its residents will consume. Build a public building in the center to expand its presence across the board. Below you can see in the picture how you can correctly set up the infodrome in your starting city.

• In the Arctic sectors, it is necessary to provide heating for houses, which is allocated at production facilities. This means that you must mix industrial and residential establishments. One of the best tips in this case is to use modules that don't need a street connection.
• Geothermal turbines and gas-fired power plants have a larger heat supply radius.
• It is important to build an effective defense on the Moon. Shield generators come in two sizes and require additional costs. You should strive to minimize any duplication between them in order to optimize the cost-benefit ratio.

Anno Guide 2205. Managing Trade Routes Efficiently

A big car is not always better than two small ones. Transporting 40 tons of cargo with two small trucks is always cheaper than using one large vehicle. It's a balance between maximizing savings and ease of management. You can easily calculate your transport costs per ton of product. Here is an example of an efficient trade link moving 100 tons of goods between two temperate regions:

• 5 routes of 20 tons cost 5*50 credits per minute, which equals 250 credits per minute.
• One route for 100 tons costs 300 credits per minute.

As you can see, five routes of 20 tons are economically more profitable than one delivery of 100 tons. On the other hand, ordering a one-time delivery of 100 tons is easier. At a certain point, a more comfortable option becomes a more effective one. Therefore, it is always necessary to check the conditions of delivery.

How to make a lot of money and balance the economy

Just like in the real world, money matters a lot, if not everything, in Anno 2205. You will need to manage your income and expenses in such a way as to maintain a stable economy and expand your settlements.

Balance your economy

To do this, you need to balance production and consumption. It is necessary to make sure that the residuals are as close to zero as possible. This will mean that everything that you produce is consumed by the inhabitants of the city. It is much better to produce a little less goods than to produce much more than required, since soon all the warehouses will be full. When the entire space is completely filled, all the products that continue to be made simply disappear. Credits that were spent on production are also written off. If you're planning to improve your employees, it's best to stock up on the items you need to consume.

Satisfy old needs before taking on new ones, as the latter will cost you more.

To get more money , start upgrading and expanding your city. However, if you greatly expand the city without upgrading, you will not be able to, for example, gain access to new lands, since you will not be able to build bridges. Bridges require employees of a certain type and number. If you cannot provide them, then the bridge cannot be built. Therefore, in such a case, you may have to go back and demolish part of the city in order to meet the requirements.

One last piece of advice on this paragraph: as early as possible, check for additional territories that can be accessed using bridges.
