Meanwhile at the base of your towers proper several members scurry around with the scant portable sensor equipment you have. They test for everything one might conceivably test for to detect hidden passages, and find none. Not believing these results, they excavate all the most likely areas where hidden passages might be and test again. Elevator shafts are tested, and measured for potential hidden double-shafts.

Still nothing.

Your members, however, are not quitters. No job should be done halfway, and so they venture into the maze of abandoned subways, sewers, utility pipes, monster nests, zombie hives, and toxic waste that is the underground. Somehow they manage to navigate their way to the basement levels of your towers, and there they resume their search for hidden passages.

They find nothing.

Meanwhile, our established military was dispatched to find biofuel. This went poorly at first, with monster activity being vastly increased prior to the Mayhem. Only a minor amount of biofuel was able to be siphoned out of abandoned vehicles or drained from missed reservoirs inside arcologies. The real kicker came on the way back though, when the troops stumbled into a hunting pack of fire spewing monsters that assaulted them viciously.

>[Survivor Knowledge accessed]

"It's a question many have asked, and it doesn't have a good answer. Monsters are too diverse and unpredictable to make any axioms about them. Depending on how desperate they are for food, or how aggressive the prominent strains of the moment are. Little food means they'll swarm anything that's noisy, because noisy means fighting means food. Heightened aggression means that they'll go for noise too, but it usually ends up as a bit of a clusterfuck with the monsters working at crosspurposes and attempting to nom each other as much as anyone else.

The real times you want to look out are when there's plenty of food, and the monsters aren't too aggressive. That's when they'll swarm on you in a coordinated fashion.

The best way to avoid any fight is to go undetected...but that's a lot easier said than done, and if you can hold a position solidly through a Mayhem then it's yours for good and they'll generally stay away til the next time."

They're mutually exclusive. Jungle is just forest in a different climate region.

Jungle is like Forest on crack though. And I've personally trekked through some very bad ones, so I know exactly how to characterize their absolute awfulness.

On the upside, if you'd picked jungle as a homeground then pretty much no one from outside the jungle could've laid a finger on you. The penalties for operating in it are incredibly heavy.

weve been told we have a relatively clear line of shight and kill zone , aka no mans land outside walls for some ways. also, these massive ass demi -agrologies can handle a couple simple (think ww2 era) field howitzers and heavy mortars. as for monsters.....*shrug*

>>39800435
question: a) is the fortified trench++ the crit on fortifing the hotsprings in the gash north of the towers, or is it a literal trench around the outer walls?
b) what exactly is the ground defense network? a fancy name for our wall? or just lights and sensors , sentries etc.
c) What defense includes our walls? could we possibly have them named sep[aretly? or am i just paranoid? i know we have them....somewhere.

>>39800582
You shouldn't shrug when it comes to monsters, especially after everything thats happened.

Rolled 20 (1d100)

>>39800653

The fortified trench is the crit on fortifying the hotsprings in the gash north of the towers.

Your ground defense network is a combination of your auto-turrets, chokepoints, walls, MG emplacements, traps, more chokepoints, obstacles, lights, sensors, etc.

Unfortunately you can't have them named separately because the stat block post is already so many characters that I pretty much have to post it all on its own.

In case I need to draw ya'll a pretty picture. There's no way to determine who's insane and who isn't, some of our soldiers are probably afflicted, and the fucking armory is UNGUARDED.

>>39809073
Aka; the death spiral. Honestly I think we are past the worst of it. unless something else attacks us right now, I think we will have some time to rebuild

>>39809146
See >>39809127

And I won't even mention the fucking bots, because the second they realize we've got an outbreak is the second we earn a permanent spot on their shit-list.

>>39809127
>>39809243
I figure that the mad aren't too hard to identify, seeing as they are mad and all. Would you rather start plugging them on sight and ruin our rep with the bandits? Banishment, fast, seems to be the only option that won't ruin our rep with everybody.

Okay, so why don't we plan out some actions.

1 - The Mad. We need to get rid of them, at least the obvious ones. Once again, I suggest we ask the Boss how feasible is it of hiring a caravan to cart them off far away.

Killing madders pisses off bandits where at least outcasting them is the norm in the setting. Everyone does it without too much reprecussion, and there's the chance it might come back to us if we give them a good send off.

We should ask the Boss how feasible is it to make that happen

2. - A new military commander. We just lost two of our most experienced and combat oriented heroes, once agian we are survivors without any military training or discipline. We need a new trainer.

3 - Pushing a deal with the Bots. We really really really need their manufacturing capabilities sooner than later to help make up for our losses and pay the caravans with manufactured goods, in exchange for scavenged resources. It'll give us plenty of purchasing power

Anything else we should note?

>>39809359
Everyone does banishment, its the default norm that all people do. Killing is not only abnormal, its both detrimental to morale and yes bandits will hate you for it.

>>39809359
Banishment will come back to bite us. You're also assuming we can cleanly depart a third of our population.

Honestly I think the best way to handle this would be to quarantine the problem in the damaged tower and let a few monsters and equipment failures 'solve' it. As long as we're subtle we probably won't face a MADrevolution.

What >>39809363 proposes would also be good, except it won't happen. No caravan will accept four hundred maniacs, and even if they did we'd be facing violent repercussions since we're telling the madmen to fuck off

>>39809363
good idea, rebuilding and reinforcing our position should be key, our position as good as it looked before, seems to be easily shakken with a few good rolls.

1) have every single pop intervewed by a group of medics/boss, time consuming but thorough. Then cart them off , or just throw em over the wall, whatever.
2) hold interviews , ask caravan thats not too far out for merc commanders etc. not to unusual.
3) Repeated dialog with bots, boss managed to snag us some industrial tools(fine), but now we need further machines and facilities to use them in/with.

4) future expansion of industry , and fortifacation of exissting assets. walls, power grid, utilities, etc.

5) creation of new assets? vehicles? artiery? air power? communication and encryption? aditional facilities? etc.


something like that?

>>39809455
>Banishment will come back to bite us.
Every action we do has consequences.

But the consequences of killing or keeping them outweigh the consequences of banishing them.

And perhaps no average caravan might, but there are stranger caravans out there.

As well, we don't have to send them off all at the same time, and likewise we can give them a good reason that they have to go (if they are sane enough to even want to stay)

Rolled 66 (1d100)

>>39809455
Mad are generally too insane to organize anything like remotely like a revolution.

And even if they could they were one of us, poor soldiers with little training. We hold the advantage of being sane enough to use our weapons and have some semblance of tactics.

>>39809548
agree, mad arent the hardest thing to deal with. insanity is a slow build up, not a completle overnight thing. we should be able to diagnose them, explan the situation to them, and send them out with our blessings. thetll work for 90% of them EASY. a few migth need to be isolated and "incouraged" to leave, but well survive. We can always do it pieace meal afterall.

>>39808483
That many madders would be hard to do...and so many MADS is bound to draw bandit attention. Especially from their crazies and bandit psionic users. Normally they wouldn't care as something like that would be the norm from a bandit faction but since its coming from a non bandit faction...they are bound to get curious.

>>39809548
Anon, your subterfuge is so lacking it's sad.

Banishment isn't an option, we would double the Bandit population on top of weakening ourselves.

The caravan thing's equal to wishing upon a lucky start. Not likely to happen.

Really, it's simpler to stage something. Have the people be interviewed by shrinks and docs, starting with the soldiers, and quietly deport every unhinged inhabitant to another tower.
Then, once we're done evacuating every sane resident from said tower, we bait in a couple monsters. Wait til morning, clean it all up, make big speeches about tragedies and shed crocodile tears.

There, problem solved with only minimum moral loss, and no risk of them coming back with an entire pack of bandits

>>39809587
We can only hope, but that doesn't change the fact that we're deporting people. Friends, family members, all forced away because of some flimsy explanation.
It's going to fuck up morale either way, might as well prevent an raise in bandit activity.

>>39809660
>Banishment isn't an option, we would double the Bandit population on top of weakening ourselves.
Not all mad instantly go to bandit, a good number of them become Outcasts. Especially the ones who before they went mad are inclined not to become bandits. That is, most of our people when sane wouldn't want to become bandits, so even insane its more likely they would choose outcast over banditry.

>There, problem solved with only minimum moral loss, and no risk of them coming back with an entire pack of bandits
I keep telling you your attacking a strawman with that argument. Not only is it highly unlikely in the first place they would lead bandits back to us, but additional efforts to prevent that would be more than enough to alleviate that kind of threat.

Furthermore the risk of failing to keep that quiet is extremely high, you don't think there aren't a ton of people who wouldn't see that kind of monster meatgrinder? There are intelligent monsters after all, and people who talk to them.

Deporting a loved one because they can't stay is not going to be as bad to morale as killing them.

And once again, if it is at all possible we will seek to put them away from bandit influence. Or at least, bandit influence FAR away from us.

>>39809660
>Friends, family members, all forced away because of some flimsy explanation
As well, its' not flimsy. Mad is pretty damn obvious.

And if it were flimsy, that's even more a reason for deportation over killing.

Everyone would recognize that sort of thing right off the bat. All of our mad dispensary simultaneous to a monster attack? That's far too convinenient

wiat, wait wait. I GOT IT! we diagnose them mad ones right? we all agree on that? spend alittle time, round em all up? then....and heres where it gets good see......we send them all on a suicide mission! no muss no fuss!
send them after a "abandoned bunker we discovered from our new com tech....signals or something" ..."we need a brave expedition crew to go and get the facility up and runnign again" ...BAM! problem solved. well weep over the loss of the expedition and none will be the wiser.

>>39809796
that could work, if were careful,
a) gets rid of mad
b) moral lose minimal with "proper" explanation.
c) bandits arnt as angry
d) bandits dont grow much)
e) 400 madders are put out of there missery.

That or they end up pissing off another monster mayhem or a faction we could do well without pissing off, that an actual non-mad scouting force would be wise enough to prevent.

>>39809796
>>39809829
So a made up 'mission' in order to banish them? You ARE aware all their actions would be under the MAD effect right? Also not all of the MADs are gonna be military personnel and just because your insane doesn't mean your stupid. They'll know whats up.

>>39809848
not a scouting mission, an "expedition" , terminology can mean alot to people. this is a KNOWN quality thing, it needs a large group to get it up and runnign and maintan it. few would question it with alittle pr spinning. ..it just so happens that its far away and monster will certaining strike by the time they get there.
dosnt have to be perfect , just get the majority of the problem out of the way.

>>39809848

You better goddamn believe it. You'd be lucky enough to find a mad who remembers his past, much less has a reason to tell you where he came from or why you should go there.

>>it highly unlikely that the madmen that routinely join bandit groups
>Despite Bandits being one of the only faction who don't despise MAD people
What are outcasts?

As in, the #1 place mad people end up in with bandits being /secondary/?

Once again, if while sane they would rather not become bandits, then while insane they would also avoid going bandit and more likely go outcast.

People have outlasted their mad without issue for centuries, and in far greater numbers than this. It hasn't killed all of them it and it won't kill us.

Also fuck subterfuge. We're gonna be good guys to the last.

How hard is it to realize that PEOPLE OUTCAST THEIR MAD ALL THE TIME.

Banishment is the norm.

>>39809796
Veto vote.

...Why don't we just contact some bandits over the comm and request that the MAD get picked up? They'll be obligated to take them less they suffer bandit 'justice' and they may even know some stuff. That will give us time to give the MADs a proper send off too and if were lucky the bandits will know of an Institute or an Outcast sect to leave them at.
