Day 25: Im ruining out of food, i used my becon to request a bulk trade caravan. Buying some steel, food and wood. I will build more

How did you request a caravan?! Did the summer temperatures rise enough so that Muffalos can survive at the south pole?

I'm curious about that too.

I will say that Randy is much more forgiving than Casandra. I'm 80 days in on my first Randy Extreme attempt. Probably because all the random cargo drops are much more desirable than the raids cassandra throws at you. I've also noticed a higher frequency of trade ships

ugh...on my someodd 30th attempt:
I got smelting up quickly and had like 4 cargo drops in 3 days (food, bricks, cloth + SLAG) and a thrumbo in my pile. Get a couple bruises in a tribal raid but they heal. So things were looking really good at 30 days in.

Then I got plague. I can't heal plague. Escape pod drops at 80% and he's an 8 in medicine, but he so far away. We end up dying in each others arms.

This wasn't the furthest I had gotten, or nearly the most desperate I had been (it was the first time I got plague though) But because it had happened on such a promising run, and was completely unpreventable (no one dropped any plague meds yet) made this much more crushing.

Anyway, on to 31.
