My only real tip after my first play through is don't be in a rush to go back to previous saves. I spent my entire first play through going back every time someone died to a raid. Yes i built a great colony but in the end it became boring.
This time I'm letting things happen. If someone died they are truly dead. Slight side effect is one of my characters lost his wife to a raider, he then got engaged to someone else who subsequently got killed to sythers. In short he's now prone to break downs. But this is the true joy of the game.
