Title: Ice Sheet Beasties!
Post by: Beathrus on June 23, 2015, 07:00:09 PM
So... Ice sheets. Seems people are enjoying the challenge... but ya know what... We need Yetis and Mammoths for 'em! Rampaging Yeti get broken, attack any living thing in sight. Mammoths try to raid your food stores! Ya know, stuff like that. Or I'unno, why not Wendigo? As an affliction for those who eat long pig (cannibals); basically the person begins craving Human(Or Norbal) flesh, and maybe go on a rampage killing whoever they can, from within your base! Or maybe, just you hear a long, lonely wail or cry for help(Would be a cool/creepy thing with Darkness installed) And your people suddenly have a new action 'Checking the sound', and the Wendigo will be waiting outside your base somewhere, not to far, but not close either, far enough to lure your people into the cold before attacking. And they either kill outright, or take the person (Alive or Dead).

Well, I don't know if this is the best idea.
I think Ice sheets where so successful because it didn't have all the artificial things that made the game hard,
but then again that's just my opinion.

Polar bears - invisible until a short distance away (Camo) and very deadly. But also very rare.

What if there were 'Migrating' Packs of Mammoths, huge and hit harder than 20 melee in power armor? It would still be hard, but you could take a 'risk' mainly by setting up traps along the route and risking a pissed off pack of Mammoths. And about the polar bears, that is easy enough, just hide their name tag until within a certain distance of a pawn. They are white and in a heavy blizzard with maybe the 'Darkness' Mod, they would be terrifying if they get past your turrets and right into your base.
