I really like how tynan is adding all this cool depth with traits and all but I wanted to suggest something like this...


Raiders have group leaders and will attack different parts of the colony
-add more strategic defence than a hole in the wall with 50 turrets guarding
-If group leader dies, -10 or 15 to the group (players will want to attack group leader to break up raids faster
-some groups try to steal silver/food while other attack

Raider leader
-in the center of the group
if dies then group gets a -15

Actually, that's a good idea. +1 internetz for you.
I like how this game can result in quotes that would be quite unnerving when said in public, out of context. - Myself

The dubious quotes list is now public. See it here

The Leader is a new idea I like it!

Beta and Qmaster stole the words straight out of my mouth!
It'd be nice if the leaders would have some very discernible "I'm a total badarse, and you should be scared" look, too

He could always use that Neo look your muffalo uses, Shinzy :D

I don't think Duster and sunglasses would look as menacing on a human, though!

Think of it. A very big man wearing a pitch black trench coat with black sunglasses and an armoured vest whilst wielding a minigun.
You see this tank?

This tank is the epitome of "I'm going to destroy you"


This tank can make Chuck norris cry.

All hail the Takemikazuchi.

nnnoooo it needs to be very big man with minigun wearing sunglasses, leather jacket and pants he has taken off of another big man after briefly tossing him around a pub and then stolen his bike

and an ammo belt!

Mostly what you need are new enemy types to overcome various obstacles. Like one guy could be carrying ladders to cross your wall. Another could be a tank thing with heavy armor and an RPG type weapon. Stuff like that.

Thanks for the support guys

Raiders actually "raiding" and not just swimming into my net made out of several dozens of turrets would be...yeah, kinda good. Though I guess I wouldn't exactly enjoy them stealin' mah precious silverz, it'd be good. ^^
Having raider bosses is a fun idea too.
To beer or not to beer.
That is a laughable question.
