In Progress Let's bring monocles and steam to the savage wilds in Clockwork Empires and get eaten by fishpeople.

Your reverse psychology does not work, however I may update over the weekend as is custom, which would imply it does work

Blame weekend partying, hangover and a newly purchased copy of Wasteland 2. I'll go and play this today after work, update sometime during the week.

New Antipodia III:
Murdercults, dark energies, altar architecture and [REDACTED] with a tint of Dodo.
Day 13
Things are starting to settle down. Most fishpeople are dead, the proles work the fields again. All is well it seems.
Unfortunately a rather ominous gurgling sound made it clear that all will not be well. Tally ho! To fishpeople murdering we go!
Day 14
At sunrise I received news most ill, we lost five people to the five fishperson raiding party. And there are still fishpeople up and about. Cog save us all!
Even more men and women died. The Ministry has however provided us with emergency food.
Day 16
We are down to just ten colonists. The militia is making a poor effort to fight the fishy fiends. Some brave militiamen try to stab the foes with their bayonets, however most fail to do anything more than panic and run away.
Day 17
Food shortages force even the most noble of us to resort to eating human flesh. Ia... Ia...
We received a new officer who quickly ran to combat the fishpeople roaming up and about. However seven more fishpeople have appeared. I fear we may be doomed, or maybe blessed. Quggaroth fhtang.
Day 18
The single officer tries to rally the militiamen, killing the ichtious menace one fishperson at a time.
However all is for naught, eventually they come even for me, the sweet embrace of the dark tentacles at long last...
Game over getlemen, game over. Well, second time I get murdered by fishpeople. To be honest the main problem is that they need to work better on morale and melee attacks. That and I should really start building gabions and mines sooner.
Also I hunted too much, lost a ton of bullets on that which is probably what fucked me over the most. This is actually pretty cool, because you need to take a risk between hunting for more food and having enough ammo to prevent your colonist from becoming fishpeople chow.
Anyway once I get in the mood again (possibly tomorrow, most certainly over the weekend) I will make yet another attempt at colonizing the jungles.

Funny thing is, building gabions will also lead to you getting killed by just a couple fish people as there's no way to easily interrupt your military squad when they're building them. And with the AI as bare-bones as it is right now, this leads to a bunch of people fleeing out of town and through the wilderness, and once they're fleeing outwards, they're as good as dead.
This is amplified in the jungle where your military personnel are in constant demand.
You *might* be able to get away with turning off the building jobs on your primary military and creating a secondary squad for construction duty.

I dearly hope the situation is merely temporary

Maybe it is a sign of the end of the age of decline? I mean honestly, Wasteland 2 is great so far.
Right, back to to regular programming. I'll get on with playing this, don't expect an update before the weekend.
Also here's a shot of the House of Cog, as religion is
I wonder if Mechanist Vicars will be able to purge heresy. They will help with cults somehow, though.

As long as you provide them with an ample supply of Rust Gas...
I do believe we ought to bring monocles and steam to the next page
C'mon lads! Put some effort into it.
You lousy, lazy lot! Git to it!
It's the cat o' nine tails for you louts!

I approve of this poster's agenda.
One step at a time...
Really, the old Playground, with 20 posts per page, was much more convenient
Spam, spam, spam your posts, gently on the Codex...
Ta-da!
