- Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic is back on the channel as the 1.0 version is ready for action. Our drab, grey, Soviet town is bursting with reasonably excited citizens desperate for a drink.
We're diving back in to some Workers And Resources and seeing how many Christmas lights we can string on Lenin's head.

Manage all aspects of your republic in this soviet-themed city builder game. A planned economy puts you in control of everything from mining resources to manufacturing goods and providing services - use this power to make decisions that impact your citizens’ day-to-day lives and their ultimate loyalty to the nation. Whether it’s construction, transportation, trade, healthcare, education, entertainment, tourism, or any of the countless other facets of a full-fledged city, it’s up to you to determine availability, accessibility, and quality. Contend with a deep simulation of global supply chains as you seek fertile soils, ore veins, and viable lands upon which to build your nation - let the radio stations sing your praises and the citizens rejoice in their glorious soviet republic.
Multiple complex simulations work together to bring your cities to life in Workers & Resources: Soviet Republic - whether it’s the price of goods in the global market, the proper distribution of electricity and water, or the increased supply of heat during the winter months, everything can be manipulated with the right actions. Adjust your game settings based on your appetite for complexity in particular areas - civil engineers, urban planners, economists, and simulation enthusiasts will all be able to experience the mechanics they love.
Run your nation with both rubles and dollars as you strike a balance between eastern and western markets, trading with nations from either side of the Iron Curtain to gain access to valuable currency, resources, and technology. Despite following a soviet-styled planned economy, you are a fledgling non-aligned nation - this sets you free to engage in trade with both the Western Bloc and the Soviet Bloc to your benefit. Loyalty to one side is always an option, but flooding one market with your goods might result in diminishing returns, and shunning the other side might see you cut off from useful technological advances.
Familiarize yourself with the intricacies of realistic supply-chain management with over 30 commodities to acquire, manufacture, and transport. Raw materials, processed goods, and waste material all have specific places where they can be stored, with specific vehicles needed for their transportation, and specific structures needed for loading and unloading. Liquids are stored in tanks and moved with the help of pipes and pumps, or loaded onto vehicles with tanks. Mined ores are stored in aggregate storage facilities, and moved with conveyor belts and flatbed trucks and train cars. Processed goods, meanwhile, are shipped around in covered trucks and train cars, and stored in warehouses. Organize forklifts for short distance hauling, build intricate conveyor belt networks to minimize your reliance on vehicles, or use trains to haul goods from one city to another - supply-chain management is an integral part of operating a nation, and you’ll use everything from cargo planes to freight trains to cargo helicopters to make sure everything is operating smoothly.
Every road, bridge, residential building, and factory is built from the ground up with resource costs reflecting the size of the project. Pay market rates for raw materials to execute quick builds with the help of foreign labor, or establish construction offices and provide employment to your population as they head to construction sites to build everything using locally acquired resources. Buildings can require anything from prefab panels, to steel beams, gravel, concrete, and more - produce and supply them locally, or import them to simplify the process. Will you be a self-reliant republic, or will you exploit the international market for rapid expansion?
I want to welcome our comrade Dave to the community of slightly confused city planers.
With his dedication we will acomplish the 5 year plan in 4.
You're only slightly confused? You're doing better than me.
@@WeeHoursGames I just spend 30 min building a concrete plant - just for realizing that I can not transport cement wit a truck and that the cement factory has a own output for it.😭
Classic Dave, " I'm waiting on the fields," forgetting he destroyed 2
You should expect things like that
I have never considered this game funny or very entertaining to watch until today. Dave you have a gift!
I have...something...
I've had this game for ages and still find it vast and at time Unfathomable There is so much to do I do like it though I's a very solid game
It's very dense. There's a lot to take in
Of course. Yes. Nothing was at all wrong about the USSR. However, I will argue I love brutalist architecture (those concrete slab buildings popular in communist countries, particularly pre-1990). This was fun. Love the people art.
Love this game... It can be complicated later on in managing things. Of course I like to see more of this on your channel 😁
I see you're not playing on the Realistic mode, where building anything is not instant and you have to make your own gravel to make cement to make asphalt to make your roads... probably smart 😉😂 That's actually one of the things that caught my attention to this game. There is a mode where you literally build industry/city from the ground up. Something i think is done to extreme here but a few more games could add to some degree. Can't wait to see the Republic grow!
That sounds far too complex for me ;)
Skol Comrade Dave
I've been wanting to play this game. Thanks for picking it up.
Hope you enjoy it!
I hate to have to say this Dave , but you have built right next to and blocked the rail line exits/ entrances from the Custom Post. You will need these later for moving coal exports . Major rebuilding I fear if you proceed with the Campaign , unless of course you can use another Customs Post.
I look each day to see if you have posted as I would not like to miss any of your streams , they are so entertaining and humerous . I do not know how you do it , I certainly would not know how to commumicate and entertain as you do.
Done it wrong from the start...oh...good.
Awww....you told him!! I was looking forward to him finding out the Dave way... 🤣🤣🤣
Hope you do more. It looks interesting.
That's the plan!
Hey Dave, You can change your unit measurements to imperial in the settings, its under temperature, change it to Fahrenheit and it will change everything over to imperial. I to suck at metric.
GLORY OF THE UNION
play more build more
Together, we strive.
Please finish this series. Then learn the game outside the channel, and then once you have learned a few things, you should to a full playthrough on Realistic Mode!
That seems like a big investment ;)
@@WeeHoursGames 😁
@@WeeHoursGames It's a massive investment... 🙂
Pride of the working class!
Thanks comrade
1:23 ah brutalism my beloved. Although it does depend what era of the USSR. Post stalin brutalism took over. But during stalins rule the buildings were elaborate palaces (vis moscow metro)
I'm mostly focused on "slab" as my theme ;)
I really enjoy games with a lot of depth (I'm thinking the likes of Civ6 and CK3 etc.) but this game seems to go too OTT. I've watched several people playing this and would love to understand it more but the over complexity and level of micromanaging puts me off every time.
It is...very complex
@@markparsons2864 I advise to play the tutorials and thr the campaign on normal first.
This way you do not have to bother with water, electricity, waste, fuel and repairs.
There is also a mode for unlimited money if you wish so.
It's more complex than Dwarf Fortress...
Actually, I was looking forward to Dave playing it with all the bells and whistles and watching the dumpster fire... 🤣🤣🤣
so funny thing about Mikhail Vlasov. Vlasy means hair...
Ahhh...irony
❤❤❤❤
It's been a while since i've watched your channel since the games you've played didn't really interest me, bit this was fun.
Any chance you'd try out New Cycle? I'd love to see you make more NPC lives misserable 😂
I don't have any plans to, but nothing is really off the table
