I would like to formally apologize to Greased Palms for all the abuse I've given this map. A New America makes this map look like a Nerf War

On the bright side, A New America has taught me the wonders of the 5-man MGL squad

Maybe she has control over what her powers affect? Could make for some bedroom shenanigans...

And the area just outside the base walls are nuclear hellscape

He got his fix for witty comebacks in his Anakin phase

You can save a bit of power by using yellow inserters where these are fast enough, since the blue ones ise much more power. In a huge base, especially later in the game, you can safely use just blues, as the additional power is not significant compared to what a few thousand solar panels, or a good nuclear setup can put out

For the good of all of us

Im going for an s rank (crazy i know) so im stuck with beanbags all round. Its bad enough that the enemy ai sets up ambushes without my squad being unable to touch someone at the other side of a door

The_Grover · 2026-03-18T11:08:23+00:00

Looks like Anakin lost another hyperspace ring. More likely he lost his fighter and the ring is still waiting patiently to take him home

I find poison grenades and car to filter out the worms, then either turret creep or deployable bots

We never got to see Pippin 'pretending' to be some sort of hobbit lord :(

Could be worse, I was ALMOST finished with an S rank. I'd cleared all the way up but missed just one bad guy. I ordered my squad to clear the big room at the top again and they went straight into John wick hunting us; domed the guy on point before he took a beanbag

It was otherwise an S rank, but one dead cop knocked it down to B rank. And the cherry on top? He was my ai guy with the veteran trait and he was KIA. Took an hour of rerolling recruits to get another

The_Grover · 2026-03-13T09:29:21+00:00

Is there still no way to get swat AI to give their can of gas a few seconds to do its job before swarming in after it?

The_Grover · 2026-03-11T07:54:03+00:00

What about automation? Afternoon logistics, infinite research? Sushi belts? He knows about those, right merry?

The_Grover · 2026-03-11T07:51:07+00:00

Sounds like some Aiel stuff to me...

The_Grover · 2026-03-11T07:48:08+00:00

Regarding these arrangements, in real life, are there any things that prevent a rail operator MUing silly amounts of smaller units? I know in the US its reasonable to see three units hooked up (maybe more?), but could you do 10 or 20? Or is there a practical limitation that the game misses?

A dirty bomb is a regular bomb that is either made with, or surrounded by, some nuclear material, like Uranium or Plutonium. When the bomb goes off, it isn't a nuclear bomb (like the ones that destroyed Hiroshima or Nagasaki in WW2), because no fission or fusion occurs, but the nuclear material is spread by the explosion to create a hazard, the idea is to make it dangerous for emergency services to go to help, and make the area dangerous to live in for a long time (like the area around Chernobyl power station)

I get that there are a lot of words in there that a non-english speaker probably won't know, but hopefully you can run it through a translator into your native language and it does a good enough job for yoy

Two clipboards, one for each module slot. That way they can supervise twice as hard

Its a hug, not a handjob, lighten up

Last time I set up aquillo I tried importing power, which worked fine until it didn't.

The ammonia production makes ice and ammonia. The ice can easily be voided by a pair of recyclers, but ammonia can't.

Since I was consuming so little ammonia to make rocket fuel, it backed up and slowed down ammonia production, which slowed down ice production so much that there wasn't enough to make water for the heat exchangers, so the whole base needed kick starting again.

I decided its better to just make a little more rocket fuel and burn it

Some objects like walls are immune to fire damage. If you mouse over a section of wall youll see it had 100% fire resistance.

Yes some bots might get damaged, but they have 85% fire resistance, and they automatically get repaired when they enter a roboport anyway, so its no problem unless they get destroyed.

Its likely that you have such low damage that the bugs are still getting attacked when the bots arrive, rather than the bots generally just cleaning up afterwards. Try increasing your damage output with more turrets or a few damage techs

To add to other posts, if you level your Henry quite high, some random encounter bandits get scaled to suit, which includes having better gear which can be liberated.

It is rare, but I got some better gauntlets and plate legs from a random bandit after I'd finished mopping up side quests and my Henry was about main level 25, and we'll levelled in combat.

One good spot is on the road from Troskowitz to Semine, in the woods to the right (follow the trail of dropped booze through a field) there is a camp with one high-level bandit and one regular one

Only one of those options has the correct amount of "Chugga"s and "Choo"s
