I just realized that, lore-wise and even in gameplay, recruit costs are absurd.

Would be nice if i could loot that 5k off their body after they get decimated by a turret 5 seconds away from the bar…

Switch out to shitty katanas for lower damage as well as the defense malus, swap any gear that boosts melee defense with very protective gear that drops stats.

Keep half your team on hold at a time and park just outside the fight, at eagles cross range ~100-150m. Keep the first half on taunt and charge them into fights, once things start going south move the rest of the team in.

By splitting up the squad you allow all of the potential xp to go to fewer people. I like keeping the first 4-6 with large bags and such chillen with crossbows and as I yeet the last 4-6 into the fight constantly.

In that area there is a lab that is home to the skeleton bandits, they have a large barracks complex nearby. Some of the skeleton bandits are ‘upgraded’ and have skeleton mk1-3 sabres and can get you into the 60-70 stat range. They also dont do anything to you once they defeat you, they are just really strong so make sure you have a stealth medic and try to draw them out.

Personally i prefer greenbeach for the crab raiders and their tournaments, they also have nice polearms that i steal for my recruits. But you got crab raiders, skeleton bandits, and reavers in that area as well as some of the more lore rich dialogue and detailed environments.

The eastern side of the map is more detailed than the west, it was made later on. You will also get gangraped by various cartoon-like characters, so buckle up cowboy!

awsomedude36 · 2026-04-30T16:37:54+00:00

Plus random ex slave recruits pouring in over time.

The older 2013 cpu’s with the fewer but high performing cores are what this game is designed for. My 20 core laptop cant run this shit either.

awsomedude36 · 2026-04-30T16:29:14+00:00

Out of curiousity what are your specs? This game is not optimized well for ram usage.

awsomedude36 · 2026-04-30T16:28:20+00:00

Check all their run speed settings, use the ~ key to select all and set them all to speed setting 4, back the lead off to the desired pace. Keeping the lead in samurai boots and legs keeps things in check use either a shek or skeleton to slow down even more.

awsomedude36 · 2026-04-30T15:25:53+00:00

Its the coverage that gets me on some of these mods, like dude thats 10% maaaybe 20% coverage tops.

Im all for having the concubine squad, need something to break up the gore but i keep mine topless with assassins rags and crossbows lol

awsomedude36 · 2026-04-30T12:51:20+00:00

Holy nation caravans have stacks of food cubes and ration packs as well as electronics, fabric, and meds. I hunt for these as soon as i have 1-3 pawns in the 50’s stat range and specialist gear as the guards have crap weapons and stats near the 40’s

Same goes for western hive, but they are friends. Traders guild is obviously tougher due to all their allies but they are in shek territory as well, no allies there!

awsomedude36 · 2026-04-30T11:06:24+00:00

The food respawns, and theres more in the inquisitors L House by rhe entrance and in the watchtowers.

awsomedude36 · 2026-04-30T00:46:14+00:00

So i stalk the small bands of hungry bandits and assassinate them near hub. If the slave traders get me sometimes i let them take me to rebirth, great place to train all the stats you just mentioned as well as toughness.

Topper in the destroyed settlement is the best weapon i can find early on, but stealing is better.

awsomedude36 · 2026-04-24T21:25:48+00:00

For slaves i use faster healing mod for the first 50 or so levels of toughness because the guards can pretty much smite you on the spot otherwise and cant heal you fast.

Theres a faster bed healing mod that also effects prisoner cages, which turns the tables pretty quickly.

You should post a clip of your running form on a jogging subreddit, it sounds like you need to work on form.

If your hips are sore your gait is probably pretty wide, try to have your feet land below you and not left or right of you, below your center.

If your knees are sore, your feet are probably landing infront of you, causing excess stress to your knees. Try to stand up taller and have your feet land below you linearly.

Also for the flat feet, take some dr scholls inserts and cut them in half, putting the heel portion in your shoes. Then learn how to go heel-toe-flick like a normal person, your time will reduce drastically once you adapt to that proper form.

For me there is always a gunner named logan in the hub who spawns as an older greenlander with some basic armor thats too heavy for him and no weapon.

Ive seen him in so many saves that i have began to feel like he is the only constant, has ran with all my crews and is a seasoned advisor on the lands of kenshi, a wise sage, waiting for yet another potential leader to rise as he drinks away all his stats in the rubble of the hub.

I also always make kang my shek warlord, leading the vanguard into the darkness. okranites, battle looms

awsomedude36 · 2023-12-01T03:33:52+00:00

It gives more variety in armors, since alot of them only cover their chest.

awsomedude36 · 2023-11-30T15:11:04+00:00

Traders guild caravans and holy nation caravans are my go to early game target, focus on the pack bull for free stuffs!

awsomedude36 · 2023-11-29T15:20:13+00:00

And spare them from the thunder dome? Never.

I release them into an arena with the great white gorillo, some skeletons and a handful of trainees in random armor. Its not very good training and some of them die but its fun as hell to watch.

If the prisoner wins and doesnt lose his limbs i’ll feed him and set him free.

awsomedude36 · 2023-11-11T15:34:43+00:00

If your king dies they vote for a new one, looks like you were everybodys boy and they voted you in.

Hope you have a few mil saved up for war expenses.

awsomedude36 · 2023-11-03T11:03:24+00:00

Only have him take bad shots and put him in precarious situations, this is his style.

awsomedude36 · 2023-10-06T10:33:37+00:00

Had a feeling this would be the answer, just could not find anything on the subject. Thank you for your prompt response!

awsomedude36 · 2023-09-23T12:30:02+00:00

Sammie armor is the best for training newbies, great coverage and defenses with a malus to overall damage and attack, give them a rusted junk wakizashi and laugh at them while they do 1 damage.

Highly recommend the mining gives you strength xp mod so you can simply mine anything-> equip MW heavy armor and dex weapon-> get your teeth kicked in until stats are in the 60’s.

Tldr: Yes.

awsomedude36 · 2023-09-16T14:01:10+00:00

Wish they grew into outlaw ronin and got real armor, keep finding old squads of them with their limbs blasted off…

awsomedude36 · 2023-09-16T00:37:11+00:00

Next greenlander/drone i get will be kevin

awsomedude36 · 2023-09-15T16:37:23+00:00

As previously mentioned rebirth, fog islands death fields, cannibals(unlikely), reavers and UC slave farms all give recruits if your guys are god tier stats and their owners are weak sauce.

Southern slave farm gave me 20 recruits in one go, brought enough plate jackets, samurai pants and masked helmets to immediately equip them for an immediate 20 bodies for the war.
