Oh. Humanoid skins. Of course.

I can deal with people being creepy at us, nothing new there. Can we have the Strain Mother evolve a zombie type that's really gross looking and has lots of eyes to look back at them?

Now, how to approach said bandit ship and if.

I know bandit alliances are against bandit nature, but are they completely unheard of? I mean, it seems that bandit-bandit alliances are harder than bandit-non bandit (Memor-Bandit, Ashbloods-Reavers, Us-fozr)

>>28315987
It takes time to develop a new mutagen strain, but certainly were looking at two turns or so before production of them.

>>28315991
Their not its just not really possible unless their equal enough that they don't want to risk killing each other as it would weaken them so much.

Other types exist as well but that one is the most common scenario.

Rolled 34

>>28315991

I think that bandit alliances are much more difficult than bandit-nonbandit and bandit groups just absorb weaker ones.

>>28316030
Do you think if we gather every single zombie on this island we can and march up to their base, that would give us some leverage to speak to them on equal terms?

Rolled 76

Okay.

Have the Strain Mother develop a new mutant strain that has a shitload of eyes all over it and generally weirds people out to look at it. Also have it have spore/toxin sacks on it that can activate and spread a toxic cloud over/around them and nearby troops for shielding/cover purposes. How about some cilia/bloodsucker mouths too so they can preserve useful DNA and bring it back to the Strain Mother/Mutaze?

How long would one of those take to produce?

Ice caverns are located largely around the dead volcanoes.

>>28316621

We or our allies (excepting the light blue borg building, as they are not allied with us but are at truce with the ghouls and Fozr who we are allied with) theoretically control the entirety of our base.

Blue is us
Purple buildings were zombie-occupied before our rapefest secured us control over zombies.
Yellow is ghouls
White is Fozr
The dots are all bunkers.
The slightly larger ones under our control are ones we've upgraded to Ultra-Bunkers the 4 bunkers near the South gate between the two buildings are also Ultra-Bunkers of ours.
The large bunkers outside of the South and SouthEastern gates are (if I recall correctly) ruined beyond any reasonable hope of repair.

The two buildings near the South Gate are warehouse complexes.
The 3 buildings in the SouthWest corner are barracks.
The White Circle is the Command Center (it sits atop the main tunnel to the Vault associated with our base).
South of the CC is the HQ
East of the HQ is the Armory
The North and South most buildings of the line of buildings on the East of the base are Vehicle Garages
The buildings between the Vehicle Garages are warehouses
The formerly zombie controlled buildings include the medical facilities, the cloning facilities, and the labs. They are all unsalvageable.

What do we know of the nekuls again?
Maybe they're in with the zombies too, and we smell like zombie or something.

>>28316814
Your bandits and haven't done anything to piss them off. So their fine with you for now.

>>28316822
Normally your dead would rise as Cabu but thanks to certain taints your fallen come back as Nekul instead.

>>28316798
Cuban Pete would call them Eye Carumba

>>28316822

Let me dig it up.

Radiation and Ghouls.
Only rad ghouls like radiation others don't care for it. The ones who don't care for it is the Nekul supposedly there a few types who don't like it even. Either way though ghouls love using the stuff as a weapon that is if their smart enough to anyway. Their notorious for their dirty weapon usage.

Cabu Ghoul- If your a cannibal(knowingly or not) upon your death you will rise up as one unless your properly dealt. Are not attracted to radiation and are largely immune to most enviromental hazards. Unfortunately they suffer from a continuous vicious hunger that never lets up unless their eating afterwards it comes right back though. This constant hunger usually forces them to be primitive.

Rad ghoul- genetics or zombie with exposure to what is usually radiation creates these. Noted to be attracted to radiation and suffer from hunger that worsens over time/exposure to unusual elements(radiation included). Radiation is noted to heal them but increasing hunger. If they don't eat they began to degenerate but will never actually die.

Nekul ghoul- Weird energies can make these things arise. Not much is known other then their disturbing similarity to Cabu variants. Unfortunately these ones are noted to be capable of being much nastier.

Var- Somehow linked to monsters these bastards they wander to fight to fight slaughtering and fighting until someone finally manages to put them down. Notoriously strong and nightmarish difficult to kill.

Monu- Like the above instead somehow they kept a bit of themselves intact and thus are not bloodthirsty/insane. They are amazing at digging up and exterminating with extreme prejudice. If Monu shows up watch out their always on the hunt.

>>28316705

We don't need to devote an action to strain development from here on out, correct? Would doing so speed it or anything?

We're going for good scouts who can buff nearby zombies and aren't anything to sniff at in combat. Maybe add something into the mist that'll increase the strength of nearby zombies or something.

>>28316911
Maybe we should focus on loyalty bonuses as well. I'd rather not get hoisted by our own petards one fateful day.
We need to find more minders and the other strains who have sway over the horde.

>>28316911
Unless you plan to not use the Strain Mother then yes it does take an action.

>>28316924

Yes, I suppose some sort of minder traits would be advantageous in the new strain. We're gearing them up as pseudo-squad commanders.

That'll bump the time up further but it's better to shove them in now than later.

>>28316911
>>28316924
>>28316953

To add in limited minder-functions and buffing functions on our new strain how much longer would development take?

>>28316966
minder is bitch same with buffing. There is a reason why their so rare. So your looking at a quite a bit longer. More stuff you cram into one thing the longer it takes.

>>28316992

By the way, would we have to produce more of these guys or would they organically multiply? If we have to produce them, how would we do that and what would it cost?

>>28316992

Also, as long as we don't use the Strain Mother for another action, she'll automatically come up with the new strain?

>>28317021
He said as much.
Btw, summer won't last forever. What do you think an overall strategy before winter should be?

I was thinking fortifying the compound and gathering enough supplies and food so we can party all winter long if need be we're stuck inside and keep us from killing each other.

>>28317021
Eventually yes. Its just going to take a very longer while.

>>28317003
They are slowly produced over time. As for artificially producing them THAT will take some figuring out.

>>28317049

I don't know. One of our worst problems previously in winter was just being cooped up in our bases and unable to release pent-up energies. Now we can rape zombies (after we get Bitkha to perfect safe-sex) for fun and go out on patrols/looting/fightan monsters. Fortifying the base further is important...but the ghouls are working on that already (our gates, evidently, are functioning we just need more power).

We could fortify our bunkers a bit more with our current excess of resources. We never did get an answer on whether or not patching the Ultra Bunkers' reactors into the grid would improve things.

>>28317089
See but I wanted to gather enough resources so we could release pent-up energies in our base via winter long celebrations. Like how they were fine during the celebrations.

Well we're only going to be using them on parties if we're stuck inside for the winter.
If winter proves to be less harsh this time and we can work in it then by all means we build on. But it's still good to have loads of extra reserve.

>>28317129
We cracked open a few more bunkers. Without much problem to boot.

Dr. Bitkha said we can safely rape our zombies apparently we be immune. Even better they wont mostly get knocked up unless you got to her. If your worried about STDs though she got a fix for that. Couple in fact. Hope you like having something like glow genitals though. Among other possibilities. She is still working on it. Mostly involves *gasp* using protection even as bandits.

We didn't find much other then interesting entrances and mines. We did find some roving monsters and Yaksha though. Even some evidence of bandits...

Hmm. If we hit them hard and fast now, before they're fully moved in then we'll prevent them from establishing a foothold and we can look forward to the Fozr finally being able to do stuff to the base without being harried for an entire winter.

But, then we lose our shot at getting a food source during the winter if we run low.

Yeah.
We got the resources over the summer and did the exploring/fortifying I'd hope we do. The Fozr were left unmolested. We have 8 resources in stockpile.

But FOOD. We can't ever have enough, and in all likelyhood we'll need alot more.

We made some progress thing is though these guys are really quite sneaky, but not sneaky enough maybe if they had been always mobile but they are not and thus we found their base. In the overgrown cliff face very hard to access and even harder to take.

We didn't have luck accessing the SP bunkers they are made differently then the other ones that we are used to by now. Arms Master says some boom boom will work and Ovah Kil just says a little time and direct linking will solve the problem.

There was much burning, but the nearby monsters have seemingly learned their lesson. I mean we did have some success it was just below average and kinda low.

Now I got stuff to do homework, and a paper to write. I will peak in off and on in order to answer some questions.

>>28323402

Do you think you could tell us when the Crazy Rape Train is in town?

Are our food and water enough to last us through winter at normal consumption rates?

Do our heroes know of any way to acquire drugs? Do any of them know how to make them? Do any of our members know how to make them or is drug-making a pretty precious skill?

>>28323290

Ask Ovah Kil if winter/blizzards would increase that time to open up the SP bunkers.
Do he and the Arms Master think they can get the big guns working again?

We can convert loot/resources into food if necessary right?

Are there any particularly notable mutants in our 300 mutants?

Should our Military Base still be called "Unsecured/Infested"?

Are Charlie and Warlord Dalkin and the Dread Witch **sure** that they found the base? It couldn't be a decoy? They actually saw people moving in it?

Rolled 91

>>28323701
If I remember.
Doubtful at least food wise anyway.
Mostly by trade. Negative well except for Dr. Bitkha but her stuff is aphrodisiacs/fertility aids mostly. A couple do its just bandit grade stuff though.

Doesn't know.
Possibly with some time and resources. Luckily we got a bunch of parts for them.
negative.
Not that we no off.
yep.
They are indeed sure.

>>28323290

Whereabouts is the supposed bandit base? Did we have any indication of the composition of their forces?

Do the monsters seem to act in any sort of coordinated fashion above and beyond what normal monsters would act in?

>mfw I just realized we're basically a zombie faction guys
Except more dangerous because we have a core of paramilitary-trained guys

Does monster domestication fall under banditry?
I mean, traditional bandits knew how to keep and breed horses and shit to ride on.

Man, I really wish I pushed myself harder to stockpile food along with resources like crazy over the summer. At least winter means our water problem is solved, and if we survive winter this time we'll be smart enough to store blocks of ice as a water supply for the summer.

>>28324796

Hmm. So when winter comes and we (kind of) bunker down let's focus on:

-Developing the new zombie strain
-Developing some underwater fighting tools/vehicles so we can explore wrecks and/or fight the fish-monsters for food
-Getting the SP Bunkers online (this should probably be classed as urgent)
-Developing more bandit/paramilitary technology or reverse engineering examples we already have
-Generally figuring out a way to fix our food/water scarcity issues
-Further locking down/securing our base

Anything else?

>>28324928
It was my hope that we'd have gathered so much food it'd be coming out of our noses and we could party all winter long to avoid cabin fever if we chose to.
But let alone we've got more mouths to feed than last time.

How do the ghouls turn zombies to food anyway? Just eat them there and then? How nutrious are they?

>>28324928

I think the food issues are mainly due to all our zombies being pregnant. Also, I liked our summer and I'm not sure there's anything I'd've sacrificed for more stockpiling.

>>28324942
Water won't be an issue, just melt out the snow. Pyro and Moonshots brewery could easily do that.

Those are all good. Don't forget finding constructive ways to let off steam indoors and Definitly a focus on winterizing our troops some more to be able to go out and occupy ourselves.

>>28324971

Good thinking, but that might piss off our zombies (on the other hand, they might feel release at no longer having to 'live' with the implicit threat from their rapists).

>>28325010

Yeah, we'll do some more reverse-engineering on the paramilitary tech and development on the frost power armor so that we can operate to an extent during winter, even if the Fozr are still the primary players.

>>28325013
Well, they shouldn't mind if we only go for the mindless ferals and hey, we're decreasing the surplus population. That means less overall zombie mouths to feed, and the smarter ones could feel comfortable they have less competition.

I'm hesitant about asking to confirm this from strain mother. Do you think she'll see the logic of sacrificing some zombies so the rest have a better chance for surivival? Natural altruism and whatnot, lots of animal packs do that to survive.

>>28325091
As is they're pouring out of the woodwork from the cloning labs and demand is horrendously surpassing supply. How long before all the zombies eat all the monsters? We already lowered the monster population, and it'll only get worse.

It's simple ecology.

>>28325036
The good thing is our compound is fully explored and we have zombie shields.

Do you think we should also focus on trying to transfer our zombie neutrality/immunity to the fozr? That way they don't have to be bothered by them when they move around the base in winter?

>>28325148
If the Strain Mother is in control of them, then we only need to ask her to have them not attack the Fozr...I think.

As for generally transferring our zombie neutrality/immunity to the Fozr...don't think that's possible. We only got it in the first because of an incredible series of circumstances. Though now that we have access to the strain mother it's likely nothing is 'exactly' impossible.

>>28325091
>>28325115
Yeah we could start eating them...(I think the Strain Mother would be more open to the idea of eating zombies than you'd think, remember broodmothers and their brood? Yeah, they liked them but they were eminently pragmatic.)
that presumes that *we* can eat them though. The ghouls are much tougher than even mutants and we're only humans.

We could always thin the numbers in a productive fashion, like having them assault the bandit fortress we just found. However that has at least the drawbacks of
a) reducing the forces we'd have to launch an actual assault on them.
b) effectively killing 2 potential soldiers for every 1 that dies because they're pregnant with things of an unknown nature
[possibly however that could be a good thing, because we don't know how friendly/controllable the zombie-spawn will be...my bandit sense is tingling telling me we have it too easy right now]
c) possibly rendering hostile a faction that was not already hostile

and I'm sure there are other things

>>28325556
I wouldn't necessarily be enthusiastic of attacking any bandits who chose to stay, seeing as how they felt themselves strong enough even after our terrifying display and are likely zeds.


>a) reducing the forces we'd have to launch an actual assault on them.
>b) effectively killing 2 potential soldiers for every 1 that dies because they're pregnant with things of an unknown nature
[possibly however that could be a good thing, because we don't know how friendly/controllable the zombie-spawn will be...my bandit sense is tingling telling me we have it too easy right now]
These can be potentially solved by only using the new zombies pouring out of the cloning labs, and sparing the existing pregnant ones.

>>28325556
>[possibly however that could be a good thing, because we don't know how friendly/controllable the zombie-spawn will be...my bandit sense is tingling telling me we have it too easy right now]
Well, since we are evil bandits with no holds barred we could always take out a few have Dr Biktha analyze/disect them in stages of development.

>>28325635

I'm not terribly enthusiastic for it either...but we're bandits and bandits gotta pillage/show their strength on a regular basis. Unfortunately our antics have left only the most badass of factions around.

Speaking of which, just reminding everyone we have 250 badass-level bandits that we got through leveling up. That's so cool.

>>28325758

Wow, that's brilliant. That's definitely going on the winter to-do list.

>>28325778
Would we have better luck assaulting the hordes of fleeing bandit ships as they load up or the badass holdout forts?

>>28325813

I'm not sure. At this point they've laid their defenses down solidly and they're extremely used to dealing with zombies and we've already attacked them once. It's definitely tempting to try to take one of those bastions though, it could be of immeasurable use. Maybe if we gathered all of the zombies we could next turn, and struck one with all of them and our own forces the turn after that we could overwhelm them.

But that would be going in dry, with no scouting or clever plans.

>>28325869
>they're extremely used to dealing with zombies and we've already attacked them once
And those were the ones who felt the need ran away and they aren't even zeds. Let alone badass zeds, who are also holed down in their fortresses (longtime fortresses like our compound, not entrenched ships/docks).

You're right, the zombie hammer isn't going to be exactly very useful unless we do think of something clever.

>>28325869
Hmm, what about that observing ship?
We can at least see it in visual, and as winter comes the ocean might freeze.

A ship isn;t exactly designed to holdout hordes of zombies like a landfortress would be. Perhaps trading for some elemental weapons, possible witch weather magic, or genie wish we can freeze the water and trap the ship, creating an ice path for hordes of zombies to overwhelm it?

>>28325938

On a note, dropping all the zombies on the island into one of the bastions using the Crazy Rape Train might be more effective than dropping them on the boat. Seeing the train heading for them alone would likely spark massive internal strife from all the different bandit groups oh-shitting themselves and each trying to get on a ship and get out now. That's before the zombies even start raining down and suddenly their defenses are attacked by coordinated forces with technology.

Still, that'd require more preparation and we don't have the sort of firepower required for blowing up installed defenses and such.

>>28326011
Or on a different scale, genie willing we freeze the whole coast and their ships in dock.

Their defenses are all pointing inland, since that's where they're expecting the zombies to come from. I'm sure seeing hordes of zombies dropped on the ice plain that once was the ocean and their mode of escape will be quite the jolt to their psyche.

>>28326011

A good proposition...but jesus that ship scares me. I don't personally want to get anywhere near the thing.

Ships that cruise along in these parts probably have extensive icebreaking capabilities. And they've got completely unknown abilities...but they dress themselves in human skin and came to us after we terrified everyone else away.

>>28326134
>yfw we attack the bandits ungaurded rears with hordes of zombies and the train from the frozen ocean
>surprise behind rape motherfuckers!

>>28326134

That might just be the clever plan we need. I'm leery of using the Genie Wish for anything, but we can definitely ask the dread witch if she can come up with anything along those lines.

We'd still need to scout those bases though.

>>28326199
If we freeze the propellers technically you would disable the ships icebreakers, since at least irl they are based on forward momentum.

But this is EDE land, ships might have internal furnaces that superheat the hull to melt ice for all we know.

However, the ones near the beaches are in shallow water. If we freeze it all, even if their ships can break and melt the ice, the melted water would still be incredibly shallow that they'd still be grounded.

>>28326295

We'd still have to deal with their weapons (and I'm sure they have quite a lot of weapons...remember the things EDE warned us about bandits who don't seem to hide anything/have a nasty trick up their sleeves?)

True, this is EDE land. There are also nifty icebreaking methods like bubble-dispensers below ship waterlines that'll create pockets of air underneath the ice and warm it to weaken it. Cool stuff.

>>28326399
Well, with a train that has the ability to load up all the zombies on the island the question is do they have enough dakka for it?

They know they're way around the zombies, avoiding dodging ect., but if push came to shove could they take them ALL down? Let alone surprise motherfucker we're coming from the ocean.

>>28326449

I suppose zombies that fall into water around the island generally get torn to pieces by the fish, huh?

Ideally we'd leave a marginal route of escape for the bandits at any bastion we attack, that way we're fighting against disunited forces struggling against each other for the one avenue of escape instead of a large group of cornered animals.

It is worth noting that we slaughtered the bandits or the zombies anyway. Well to be honesty its more like they killed themselves/each other after having to view pure CANNOT BE. That was a flying crazy RAPE train raping their ships in such impossible ways. Not to mention the whole knocking them up bit.

SHIT WAS SO FUCKING CRAZY EVEN BANDITS THOUGHT SO.

It is worth noting that we saw Dr. Bitkha had set herself up a comfortable spot tanking notes and getting herself off to the whole affair.

Its worth noting that the bandit bases were set up to blew the fuck up taking out a number of things around them. Apparently they had set up some booby traps.

If I were to entertain the increasingly interesting idea of joining the krulsdae, could we ask them to personally come here and scrape this island clean of everything interesting alongside us and the zombies? We could potentially take every single zombie here along with us and leave the compound inhabitants all the resources they need to repair their base.

What about CC and loverboy?

Rolled 82

>>28329345

It'd probably get around that the Deadsnow Rapebandits had joined the Krulsade and Loverboy is presumably on it and CC undoubtedly could find out.

Told CC she'd face tougher foes with us. Hah!

We could always consider bringing it up with the Fozr. They might be down for us leaving (and taking all the zombies with us) if we left a shit-ton of resources behind.

Not with the ship out in the harbor though.

>>28329412
>Not with the ship out in the harbor though.
Considering we have no ships, we get the krulsade fleet to come here and pick us up, that won't be a problem. Hell, we'll gnab em and see what the fuck they are.

I just really want unlock all the secrets of this island before/if we leave

The Fozr would probably be okay with us going. We're still bandits and the divide is there, and we did pay them back for guarding us in the winter.
What about those clonelabs that are pouring zombies?

I dunno, raid all of the ice caverns, find out what's in the vault, find out what end-game threats there are, have demigod-tier technology, be better than Umbra at controlling zombies, find out what's lurking in the iced-over monster filled caves, generally find EDE's plot hooks and follow them.

Rolled 55

What I was hoping is if we can get the entire krulsade to come to our island and promise to join them if they help us brute force kick down all those doors.

Rolled 12

>>28329727

I feel like they don't get so big by going to mostly abandoned islands at the whim of plucky factions and searching through their depths for the tidbits of good stuff there.

Also, we may have been personally asked but I doubt that means we actually have any pull on them (there's always a bigger fish, but to jump onto the Ghoul Krulsade as the bigger fish is wrong...I fully believe it's the ship sitting fearlessly in our harbor that's the bigger fish).

Our gears seems good. As for nearby monster dens its seem an all out war is going with the zombies against them. Apparently for some reason the zombies are not interested in the usual laying low during winter. As for nearby food sources not much luck especially during winter.

They had some ideas and talked with the Fozr about what they did. Thing was it didn't translate over very well for our forces

Bonus unlocked
Getting my rocks off.

According to Dr. Bitkha the ones from the females are well zombie infants...until closer research indicates a mixture of alien taint and....advanced DNA markers heralding from our Dead Snow Company as well as some rapid mutation.

In the male zombies...the things are consuming its host's system to create an advanced form of zombie. Apparently due to the fact males wont survive the birth they decided to get all they can out of them and come out as a more advanced form. Marks are our Dead Snow Company, the odd taints that Mutaze sniffed out and rapid mutation.

More than likely due to the sudden increase, they're starving. They might wipe out the monsters or make them incredibly hard to find, and we'll have an ecological crisis.

I'd rather not be on an island where the zombies have run out of a food source, even if we are zeds.

I was under the impression SWH was a special purpose-built broodmother-esque creature developed on Umbra corp's specific request by the facilities in the swamp. I'd rate it unlikely that something like that is common (though nothing is ruled out with EDE).

Probably some sort of broodmother though.

We need to devote an action to Cloudeyez incubation in order to get a turn number before they're ready, but we decided to add mind characteristics to them and some people haven't taken care with their wording of "send all heroes out to x" so it's probably a long time coming.

...so uh well Dr. Bitkha went down there...and sorta disapeared. Like we have no IDEA where is now. Even worse we noticed those boat bastards watching oddly.

When we went to send Ovah Kil to crack them open we sorta heard a very loud BOOM which sent him flying and disapearing over the sunset team rocket style, also we activated some additional protection procedures so their about locked up has tightly as half of CC's cunt. Have fun breaking through that.

When we assigned the Strain Mother to incubate the Cloudeyez we heard an ear piercing waling somehow coming from everywhere. We found a broken strain mother huddled up in a corner. When we finally got her coaxed enough to talk we found it she can't work on the Cloudeyez anymore...when we pressed why we found out she cannot work on adapting the strain. period.

Apparently the SheBeast caught up with her and is most displeased with the plan being fucked with and extracted punishment.

the ice caverns seemed to be getting stocked with fresh meat and supplies by the look of it. Crudely organized we didn't find any Yaksha though probably out hunting.

Arms Master did indeed come up with his own special variant of doom buggy. Its the stuff in the thread image don't have a name yet for it yet. We do indeed have the plasma cocoons to a degree. Arms Master digs around and comes up with a crude minelayer device. While speeding around it can set up mines but it once it runs out it has to refill them.
