Brigador Killers Guides Hub

Welcome to the Brigador Killers guides hub. This page is the map for every how-to on the wiki: first-hour orientation, control reference, the short OBSTACLE 1 campaign, the long-form GARAGE sandbox, and the base systems that turn salvage into firepower. Brigador Killers is a single-player isometric insurgent simulator from Stellar Jockeys and Gausswerks, a boots-on-the-ground continuation of the Brigador saga set in occupied Mar Nosso. You fight on foot and in vehicles, steal and assemble a private arsenal, and push back against corporate power. Early Access launched on August 20, 2026 on Steam and GOG.

If you are brand new, start with Getting Started. That guide explains how the game is structured, why mouse and keyboard is the intended setup, and how to move from the short tutorial campaign into multi-hour Garage sessions without throwing away your best guns on a careless death. Death can strip mission loadouts, so early discipline matters more than raw aggression.

Core reading order

Work through the guides in this order when you want a clean learning path:

1. Getting Started — game layout, first-hour goals, and what Early Access means.
2. Controls — WASD movement, stance keys, aiming, inventory shortcuts, and vehicle handling notes.
3. Obstacle 1 Walkthrough — the roughly fifteen-minute, six-mission intro with narrative beats and an explosive finale.
4. Garage Guide — the semi-sandbox hub, gantries, mission selector, and how progress is saved.
5. Salvage and Fabricator — Scrapper, Fabricator, credits, and Merchant Causeway runs.
6. Inventory and Loadouts — GUN / INV / MNT columns, stowage limits, and death penalties.
7. Combat Tips — stance, aim, foot versus vehicle fights, and extraction mindset.
8. Mount Weapons — Armory pad hardpoints, technicals, and upgunned chassis.
9. Enemy Morale — panic, flee, sound radius, and accuracy changes.
10. Merchant Causeway — credits, crates, and extract under NOSPOL pressure.
11. Steam Deck & Controller — binds, game speed, and why mouse still wins.
12. Save & Gantry Rules — parking, pause-save, and demo to EA wipe context.

PC navigation shows a subset of these titles; open this hub for the full list when the dropdown ends with View all.

What these guides cover

Brigador Killers is denser than a pure arcade shooter. The Garage is a base with pads and storage rules. The Armory pad stores and equips weapons, loads ammo, and mounts guns onto vehicles that have hardpoints. Gantry slots hold one vehicle each; expansion kits found on missions unlock more storage after you deposit them. The Scrapper breaks salvaged cars and armor into parts. The Fabricator spends those parts to build new vehicles or upgun existing ones. Credits bought or looted unlock exotic purchases on Merchant Causeway missions, where the buy is easy and the heavily patrolled exit is the real test.

Combat ranges from Corvid zipguns to Spacer man-portable tech across thirty-plus firearms, with vehicles spanning clapped-out sedans, tanks, and bipedal mechs. Combat rigs and suit upgrades change what you can carry. Mission layouts, enemy packs, and crate contents remix between runs, so the Garage rewards experimentation instead of a single fixed route.

Use this hub as your bookmark whenever a mission dumps you into a new pad or inventory screen. Cross-links inside each guide point to siblings, so you can jump from a Fabricator recipe straight into mounting advice, or from a death-loss warning into a safer loadout plan. Play the game, explore the systems, then return here when you need a precise answer.
