I created this guide from the TBS Decompiler; the specific location of conversations are included so you can explore the files and confirm my findings for yourself if so inclined. It is possible that I may have missed obscure side paths, but this is every possible point where I could make a decision after I went through the game 2x. If you find a node I missed just let me know and I'll add it in.

A few general tips:

• Try to keep your kill counts even across all characters with certain milestones in mind eg. everyone up to 2, then 5, then 9, then 15, then 19, then 24, and finally 30 - anything more than 30 is wasted
  
• There are a few characters you should NOT get kills on for... reasons(because they die, also TBS2 rewards players for saving Alette) and they are: Rook or Alette(pick one), Egil(if Onef joins), Onef(any kills here are wasted unless you need the achievement for 1 kill on him)
  
• Always charge into wars and try to take on two waves when able
  
• From a kill count and renown viewpoint increasing the danger stat is a good thing, but it does make fights harder by spawning more and higher level enemies - there are a few events that modify this stat, but Charging into Wars and increasing the difficulty setting are the primary ways of affecting it
  
• Battles and wars are good things since they give kills and renown, and if you go for a 2nd wave they also give morale and a chance at items; they also help you towards the "Battles fought" achievement
  
• Losing a battle is a bad thing; you can lose an achievement and consequences for losing change from event to event, but will not be covered in this guide. If you are about to lose a battle just reload the latest save and try again, and/or reduce the difficulty setting
  
• Try NOT to level up anyone in Rook's caravan since everyone who is lvl 1 or 2 will automatically be leveled to 3 for free when you start Banner Saga 2 (and you keep the unused Renown too!)
  
• It is up to you whether to spend renown leveling up in chapters 1 & 3 (Hakon's caravan) since it will only be returned to you at the very end of the game (and they face a LOT of hard fights)
  
• In general level as follows: MAX Break > at least 1 Exertion > MAX Strength > MAX Armor > Willpower
  
• 1 Exertion + 2 Break is enough to trigger Dredge splinter chain reactions, more exertion can be useful but 3 is too much imo
  
• The only character you should max out Willpower on is Eyvind, and that is due to how his hero power works (And maybe Eirik)
  
• Regardless of what your supply was at the end of Chapter 2, you always start Chapter 4 with 3 days of supply so buying any before then is pointless This has reportedly been fixed
  
• In the following guide I will BOLD the options that I felt were the "best" but by all means decide for yourself

There are a basically 2 "forced choice" decisions in each game (this one and it's sequel) however, once you make the first "forced choice" each subsequent one has a... well... "preferred" choice. Sometimes this takes the form of extra rewards, but more often it is simply the path preferred by the characters. I'd recommend choosing one of the two following paths and sticking with it for the best RP experience, this has the added benefit in that if you ever choose to do a 2nd playthrough you can take all the opposite choices.
(TBS1) -> Save Rook -> Recruit Ekkil ->
(TBS2) -> Keep Ludin Alive -> Side with King
vs
(TBS1) -> Save Alette -> Keep Egil Alive ->
(TBS2) -> Send Ludin to his death -> Side with Rugga

Here is a link to a "perfect game" savefile. It is just before you pick Rook or Alette to carry the Silver Arrow at the end of the game, but it has a kill count balance that puts Rook at 0 and almost everyone else at 24 kills each. I edited the file to refund all renown spent on leveling (and the levels too) so you can level everyone however you like in TBS2. I also edited the file to have every possible item except the one you can only get inside Frostvellr. I justify this change since you could have gotten most of them for free if only each and every 2nd wave war fight would guarantee an item drop instead of it being just a random rare chance. This file does NOT include Ekkill in it, but it does have Egil - I felt that making that edit was a bridge too far, but feel free to add him in yourself if you want.

I include this link for anyone that already finished TBS1, but lost their savefile and want one to import into TBS2. I've added in my sav_finale.save.json to that folder so you can either import it straight into TBS2 with Alette as your main character or use the resume.save.json in TBS1 to pick Rook instead.
