I have always made my town outside of mountains but now I am starting to think it is just a death sentence. I returned to the game after a long time off to see that there has been made loads of good stuff! The siege thing is fine because the challenge is fun but now with Toxic fallout, maneaters and other nasty stuff it is pretty hard to defend yourself.

Making a base inside a mountain can be very hard to set up (Atleast for me.) but the fact that you get some much defensive is pretty nice. And you dont get affected by the toxic cloud and maneaters as much. And mortars cant do much either can they?

I just realized that the Fear tech and being able to beat prisoners options are gone?! D: How am I now going to run my colony like arkham?

Im living in a desert (Genius place to start right?) and I just want to know if animals reproduce/respawn? If not then im sort of screwed.. Well there is always human meat but that breaks down my people way to fast.

Im not sure if this has been said before but how about we add some melee weapons to the game! We have plenty of guns but we need some melee weapons! How about spears (throwing spears maybe? ;3) or clubs. Then when you get abit more advances you can get swords and bats and stuff like that. And if we get melee weapons we can finally use the melee still! C:

Okay what does fear do? Is it something you can use to ''oppress'' your settler with like in Tropico Pirate cove for example or is it just not worth it at all. I saw you could build ''gibblet cages'' so thats why I ask x3

And what is the penalty for cannibalism? Does the people go nuts or do they become unhappy?. The reason for this question is because I started to have this problem with bodies piling up. I found out that you could just throw molotovs on them and burn the bodies that way but I also saw that you could use them at the butchering table.. I hope some of you guys can answer my questions c:

Okay so here is the deal:

I bought this game today (great game! Amazing!) and I got this little colony up and going. Its name is Junk Town! Cutes little village in this part of the Outer Rim!. I had my guys geared up with some of dem' dere' shootaz! (Guns in normal speech.). If we count out the Einfield you get at the start I had 1x Uzi 1xM-16 1x Incendiary launcher and a bunch of shotguns.

I get the message about raiders have landed and to my joyfull surprise there is only 4! Just I start to party over the upcoming easy kills I realize something is wrong. All 4 are Male, snipers.. And they have M24 rifles.. Not knowing what a M24 is so I make ready for a hard fight! When they charge my village they take out all my 4 turrets from afar and incap 1 of my guys in two shots and heavily wound another one with 1...

I retreat my boys back into the village to camp in the houses. I manage to kill one of them with a shotgun shot to the face (Nice one Ian!) and after some time the raiders leave. They incapped one guy (whom I saved), wounded 1 other person. Freed a prisoner (by destroying a turret which was close to the wall.) And last destroying my 4 turrets. Now after this long bunch of text I ask: Is this normal or am I just unlucky? I myself think I got away from it quite well but I surely feared for my colony. What do you guys say? Unluckyness or?
