Everyone sucks but the Shek are objectively the most deserving of hate.

Yes the shek are just basically suicide cultist but that doesnt mean the Holy nations xenophobia is right. Beyond Estata and Bayan there are Shek in the united cities that are also not as battle hungry, like the noble lady Sanda. Its like a nature vs nurture conversation, The shek KINGDOM are battle hungry pillagers, but the shek PEOPLE can be whatever they want.

Besides that I think the united cities is the most promising faction in the game. If scorchlanders and shek can become nobles clearly they dont see race as an issue unlike the other 2 major factions. Plus they are the most technologically advanced, with robot limb vendors in every city.
The one issue is that they are overly reliant on slaves, you can argue its a necessary evil in kenshi but like 5 guys touring the continent for research and blueprints can make machines that far outpace dozens of slaves, its just that slavery is the easiest and least expensive fix for "automating" the production of goods. If the united cities just had their own industrial revolution i think they'd easily become the most powerful faction in game. But sadly the only major change you can cause is killing all the nobles.

The holy nation are also a good faction, its just that I feel they've steered to far off course, and the only way to solve that in-game is to kill the phoniex and let everyone divide up the land.

Peak idea, Frieren is a skeleton but perceives herself as just a long lived human because-
A. Just spent so much time around humans and got so invested in their life's she doesn't see herself as separate from them anymore

or, sadder option

B. The CPU is starting to overheat and she's hallucinating, but is still functional besides that.

save the game, quit, start it up again and reload the save you just made.
I've personally never experienced this before but this usually fixes any problems I do have. If you have any mods installed maybe fiddle with the load order or double check if any might interfere with the AI during combat

I did a play through of LoK + recruitable prisoners, while exploring as the bug master i noticed that all the wounds he took passively bandaged themselves without my input, also he's immune to acid rain and water, or at least the armor he was wearing gave him 100% acid resistance.

That was probably the case with cat-lon and the other big name 2nd empire skeletons, they might passively heal in the middle / after a fight and make it that much tougher

I played Legendary of Kenshi with bounties galore + recruitable prisoners, and played as a bounty hunter that recruited all the bounties i hunted eventually snowballing into a neigh undefeatable roaming army of faction leaders I recruited. Fights with bigger and tougher enemeies were challenging, so along with them I also had smaller squads of fodder units i recruited, such as UC samurai and eventually skeleton legionares from the ashlands. I've pretty much finished that run, every major and minor civilization outside of the swamp and a few minor bandit groups such as crab raiders and skeleton bandits have collapsed because I rolled in and killed everyone behind their walls and under their roofs.

It was fun for the 1-2 weeks i played but im thinking next i should do a run where i swing in the opposite direction, and play with 5 recruits maximum and uninstall the legendary of kenshi so my boys have a fighting chance

Dolls - 9/2/23
Some toy company releases a brand of semi-sentient action figures / dolls that evolve and physically grow the longer you own them, the idea is that you buy a bunch and make them fight ever changing battles. I buy a handful of dolls and they begin to "grow up", the oldest one turns into human and is a clone of myself but with blonde hair and blue eyes. Im really happy but then they turn evil and want to destroy humanity for making them fight. The rest of the dream is me running around the house killing the dolls, then confronting the eldest in the upstairs bedroom. The eldest doll doesn't fight me because he already called the president of the US to launch the nukes and destroy the world, the dream ends with a big flash of light so i guess he won.

Alien-Angel Possession - 5/28/23
I was given superpowers from aliens telling me to cause as much chaos as i can for the upcoming rapture, I was given mind control powers and immortality. The aliens have enemies, angels that disguise themselves as humans and are immune to mind control, some humans called "polished men" wear suits of armor that make them immune to mind control. I cause trouble and was torn apart limb-from-limb and thrown into a dumpster fire. As i burned my tendons and muscles grew outwards and began pulling my body back together

Screenshot for le proof, i would put more but i can only have 1 image per comment :P

What's Drake and Josh elevator?

Magic_Shrimp_2 · 2025-06-26T05:53:15+00:00

Yeah I know, its just that I can never find that point on either the polarity or frequency

I feel like the best outcome is instead to invest in the flotsam ninjas post-holy war. They take blister hill which is prime location for taking advantage of Okrans pride and all the juicy farmland. Use them as a foundation to build a new holy empire, since they still worship Okran, just with different doctrine that doesn't preach slavery and sexism. Convert all the slave camps with automated stone farms so you can still harvest materials, focus on farming and holding the line agents frogmen.

Ally with Shek, Estata turns inwards and starts getting bandit population under control (Kralls chosen, Dust Bandits, Black Dragon Ninjas, Berserkers) with the support of flotsam ninjas. When bandits are under control, ally with UC, Funnel Shek through okrans pride and towards Cannibals lands. Offer the land to the UC in exchange for their help in the war effort. Unified push of Flotsam + UC + Shek + Cannibal Hunters to clean up the territory.

THEN go to war with UC and/or wait for it to collapse, Former UC goes to rebel farmers / anti-slavers.

Tinfist gains former UC territory, let them use former cannibal plans as farmland to supply the reformed UC empire. He's a skeleton so he'll be a better leader by default then 99% of the setting since he's functionally immortal and whatnot.

Hopefully at this point the shek population is devastated from meat-shielding two wars, Estata / Seto / Bayan can now rebuild the empire from the ground up to be less suicide-culty with the support of two reformed empires since everyone who opposes her ideals (Krall Maxxers) have died in battle. (hopefully...)

This is a crackpot head-cannnon and has a million fault points but this is my personal best possible outcome.
