So, this just happened: I'd been playing this colony for 9 hours, 92 in game days have passed, with no major events, no colonist deaths, just a few minor heart attacks like the flashstorm that burned down the steel wall containing a centipede and 4 very angry people. Luckily, the pede was downed and the 4 enemies rushed me 1 at a time, giving me ample time to pick them off.
Then this happened: I get a notification about a pack of manhunters, go to see what's up and see a group of 10-15 wild boars storming at me. I position the people who can actually fire a gun and have one in strategic locations and open fire. 2 seconds later, 2 of them are downed and the others beat a hasty retreat to within the walls. The warning said something about hiding behind doors, so I keep everyone restricted to the interior of the base. 4 seconds later, I'm scrambling to get everyone as far back in the base as possible because they broke down the door. I desperetaly try to fight them off, but there are just to many of them. 1 minute later, all 9 of my colonists are laying on the ground, severely beaten up and unable to do anything. Fast forward a day or 2 and they all die of blood loss, leaving me with a base with 9 skeletons in it while the boars finally decide to move on.
Hint taken, game. Don't slack off on defenses, just because it's been easy so far.
Update: Figured I'd see what happens next since I really like this base so far. A couple of days later the first new colonist event happens, it's a space drop in and I have to watch her bleed to death.
