Smalland: Survive the Wilds is a game about small human beings in a dangerous way of insects. Players can survive in different weather conditions, fight against insects, build their own house and create things. There are a decent amount of items in the Smalland game, from clothes to decor elements in the house. As you progress, you will have to achieve technological perfection gradually. Smalland was created by the developers at Merge Games, who managed to provide players with a very impressive product.
We will tell you where the resources of fortified chitin and iron fragments are located, which will make it easier to pass and reach a new milestone in development. To mine an iron shard, you need the Flint Pick tool. When cleaning up the territory where the resources of the iron shard and fortified chitin are located, you will need a spear weapon and a poisoned club.
In the Smalland game, resources are of great importance in character development and achievement in technological development. All resources can be divided into several types: collected resources (these are resources lying on the ground), natural resources (extracted from plants, resources from insects (you can get by defeating an insect) and produced resources. At the same time, food, medicine can be made from the collected resources , weapons, armor, build buildings and machines.
The era of “Fortified Chitin” and “Iron Shard”, in the game Smalland.
After completing the task from the character Lysander, we are provided with information on the new character Nok. Arriving Nok, in the dialogue, she talks about a new danger to the people, the boss “Black Hornet”. After defeating the hornet, Nok promises to make the perfect set of “Iron Armor” for us. Provided that we bring her sapphire wings from a defeated hornet. Nok also says that in her area there is another inventor, Myrmek, who is able to create good sets of armor.
We received the need for the resource “Fortified Chitin” from the moment we completed the task, that of the character Lysander. During this period, they managed to build the machines “Loom and spindle” and “Mill”. Already after the buildings “Loom and spindle” and “Mill” it became possible to build machines of the next level. In one of the machines “Crucible”, in the recipes, there is a resource “Fortified Chitin”. In order to build a new workbench, we went in search of a new resource “Fortified Chitin”.
Workbenches from the era of fortified chitin, in the game Smalland.

Crucible.
The crucible is designed for the processing of hard rock and materials such as screws, caps and scrap metal. From primary materials, you can get the Iron Ingot resource. You can build a crucible with the help of Reinforced Chitin resources 10 pieces, Stone Bricks 10 pieces, 5 pieces of resin and 5 pieces of wood. “Brick of Stone” is produced in the “Stone-Cutting Machine” machine, and the resource “Reinforced Chitin” will have to be obtained from insects.
With the help of the “Crucible” machine, you can further advance the character in technological development. At the stage of the Reinforced Chitin era, we have the opportunity to purchase good sets of armor. Such as the Ant Armor set, the Bone Armor set, and of course the Iron Armor set. But, the Iron Armor set becomes available only after completing the task from the Nok character.
-
Magic source.
The “Magic Source” workbench becomes available immediately after receiving the “Iron Ingot” resource. You can get the resource “Iron Ingot” in the machine “Crucible”, by processing the “Iron Shard. You can build the “Magic Spring” workbench already in the “Fortified Chitin” era, since it is possible to mine the “Iron Shard” and build the “Crucible” workbench. For the construction you will need: “Insect Lymph” 4 pieces, “Stone Brick” 10 pieces and “Iron Ingot” 4 pieces.
The constructed machine “Magic source” makes it possible to change the appearance of the character. In this case, you can change a large number of parts. Body shape, character height, eyes, face shape, character gender and more. The machine is intended only for interaction with the character himself and does not participate in production moments. You can build it if you have extra resources and it’s very interesting to create and customize the character to your liking. In other cases, there is no special need for the “Magic Source” machine, since it does not provide useful functions.
-
Catapult.
The catapult is a building that allows you to quickly move around the territory of Smalland. Becomes available for construction from the start of the quest from Nok. To begin to move quickly and use the Catapult machine, you need to build a foundation. After, on the built foundation, it is already possible to build the “Catapult”. Resources are required for construction: processed wood 10 pieces, string from fibers 6 pieces and stone 4 pieces.
After the Catapult machine is built, you can begin to put it into practice. First you need to point in the right direction, before starting construction, and start the mechanism. There are only three degrees of rubber tension, you can determine the tension by retractable stones. As soon as the mechanism is fully tensioned, the character needs to move to the seat. Already from the seat, you can pull the lever, and the catapult will work, and the character will fly in a given direction.
Important point:
You need to use the “Catapult” in the case after having the “Monarch” or “Iron Armor” armor. That is, only with such sets of armor that allow you to fly. The catapult allows you to fly very high and without flying sets of armor, the character will simply die upon landing.
Tools from the Reinforced Chitin and Iron Shard eras in Smalland.

Armor of the “Fortified Chitin” era, in the game Smalland.
During the passage of the era of fortified chitin, our character is presented with 2 good sets of armor. These are the “Ant Armor” sets and the “Bone Armor” set, which are produced by the Myrmek character. They differ from each other in the composition of resources, indicators of protection from the cold and the presence of resistance to damage. Both sets are needed to increase survivability when fighting the Black Hornet boss.
-
A set of “Ant Armor”.
“Ant Armor” is designed to fight insects that deal blunt damage that does not pierce or cut. For example, some bosses, geckos and lizards. Armor increases resistance by +3% to blunt weapons. Standard protection is at around 6 points for each piece of armor. You can produce for the resources “Ant’s head” 1 piece, “String of fibers” 15 pieces, “Reinforced chitin” 21 pieces, “Iron ingot” 4 pieces and “Amphibian skin” 9 pieces. Of the shortcomings, one can single out low indicators of protection against the cold, only 4 units per item.
-
A set of “Bone Armor”.
“Bone Armor” is needed to increase survivability in the battle with insects that inflict piercing attacks. For example, wasps, hornets and bees, including some bosses. Since thanks to the armor, the character’s protection against piercing damage is increased by + 3%. You can produce armor for resources: Ant Head 3 pieces, Fiber String 15 pieces, Cloth Scrap 15 pieces, Reinforced Chitin 42 pieces, Bones 12 pieces and Bull Ant Jaws 9 pieces. The armor still protects well from the cold, 6 points for each piece of clothing. The total defense is 25 units.
Weapons of the “Fortified Chitin” era, in the game Smalland.

Sting spear, secret weapon.
The weapon “Stinging Spear” is secret and appears in production after being in a secret place. You can find such weapons in the sewers, where there are many cockroaches and flies. Before traveling to the sewer, you need to prepare well. First you need to get a good set of armor and stock up on a lot of “Healing Patches”, “Health Potion”. You will also need a decent supply of food, resources for a fire and spare weapons. It should be noted that the journey will not be superfluous, since the Stinging Spear weapon is very effective against the Hornets, including the Hornet boss.
After finding the weapon “Stinging Spear”, it can be started to be produced in the “Stone Cutting Machine” workbench. The Stinging Spear has two types of damage, piercing damage and poison damage. Piercing damage deals 20 to 28 damage, and poison deals 12 to 14 damage per attack. Stamina consumption is 25 units per attack, durability is 250 units. You can create for the resources “Insect Sting” 3 units, “Patch of Cloth” 4 units, “Processed Wood” 2 units and “Reinforced Chitin” 2 pieces.
Resources from the Insects of the Fortified Chitin era, in the game Smalland.
The main resource is “Fortified Chitin”, which is obtained from insects such as “Hornet” and “Cockroach”. The beginning of the extraction of fortified chitin begins with the passage of a task from the character Nok. Almost immediately, from the beginning of the passage, you can meet strong opponents, such as the Hornet, and then the Cockroaches. Both insects provide the Reinforced Chitin resource, but pose different dangers. For example, a hornet has an additional poison attack, and cockroaches are more tenacious.

Fortified chitin.
Reinforced Chitin is a tough material used in armor sets, weapons, and construction. It is also an improved material of ordinary chitin, but it is intended for other things and is not mixed in production. The Reinforced Chitin resource is obtained from the Hornets and Cockroaches insects. Participates in the production of the following armor sets: Ant Armor set, Bone Armor set and Iron Armor set.
Cockroaches are vulnerable to blunt weapons and take more damage accordingly. These weapons include: hammer, clubs and poisoned mace. At the same time, different amounts of damage are inflicted on different parts of the insect’s body, just as in a different period of time. The most suitable areas for dealing damage are the head and back. The Hornets have no vulnerabilities and suitable weapons, but in most cases, the Spear weapon does more damage.
Mined resources, the era of “Fortified Chitin”, in the game Smalland.

Iron shard.
Iron Shard is a resource that is mined from human things, that is, from Scrap Metal garbage. The location of the largest amount of Iron Shard resources is in the Nok character area. Takes part in the creation of another type of resource as a semi-finished product, to create an “Iron Ingot”. Mined with the Flint Pick or higher. Strong insects, such as cockroaches and hornets, surround the resource location of the Iron Shard. The Iron Shard resource is a transitional resource in the Iron Age.
Conclusion on the era of “Fortified Chitin”, in the game Smalland.
As soon as we entered the territory where the Reinforced Chitin and Iron Shard resources are located, it is advisable to linger and collect a good amount of resources. It is important to have time to produce available items and weapons. For example, the weapon “Chitin Bow” will allow you to deal a little more damage, which will allow you to defeat insects faster. And the Crucible machine will open up new opportunities for advancement in technological development.
Advice:
During the period of the “Fortified Chitin” era, it is not possible to build a “Forge” in which items of the next era are produced. Nevertheless, it will not be superfluous, it is desirable to produce the Iron Ingot resource in the Crucible machine. Then new types of machines and weapons will become available to us. For example, the “Magic Spring” workbench and the “Composite Bow” weapon, which belong to the era of “Iron”.
