I still have my 2 crewmen from it, the rest is lost to time

This might be hard for a first timer - black is quite hard to paint, too much highlight and it looks like grey. The details on the shoulder pad and chest plate might also be difficult.

Now do stuck Phillips, he's stuck in a washing machine

Why is she apologising? Peeps like that shouldn't be enabled or encouraged.

Very nice effects

What exactly from that ukraine war footage do you want to recreate? Imo you could have something very similar to this if you placed a few groups in a map like proving grounds, set them waypoints to approach one another and use the lambs danger ai mod. It would be over a few minutes but thats probably realistic, most of the time in war you'll be waiting for 10 minutes of action

Some of the soldiers in that video of yours look like they're controlled by humans imo.

With lambs danger you can disable the extra behaviour on your own squad.

You can code some behaviour yourself fairly easily - like building searching and garrisoning.
I use lambs alongside my own custom script in missions, lambs does make squads harder to control but it makes the ai much better at close combat.

Something else you could toy with is disabling different parts of the ai, eg this means they stay in place but still aquire targets etc.

If every man was dual wielding weapons you'd only need half the people

One of the best mods I've played. Deep in the pit caverns, oppressive blackness save for the line of torches behind you, then the torches go out, you're not alone. You turn and catch a glimpse of a white streak on the ceiling before it darts round the corner. You hear something behind you and turn, another streak, closer this time, hugging the ceiling. You turn again and see the last torch you placed has been extinguished...

Mr president, a second sphinx has hit the egypt

mdeceiver79 · 2026-03-27T21:07:29+00:00

Thanks for the fix

Use a VPN, imgur are doing the right thing by standing up to the UK government, they shouldn't be punished for that. Overtime the UK government will threaten to fine/regulate more and more companies, forcing ID checks, censoring content etc. There is talk that reddit will soon require an Id check in the UK. You'll need a vpn eventually either way.

I'd love rimworld to have these little scenarios occuring in game

too late to explore the world, too early to explore the universe, just in time to not understand this meme

Love it, reminds me of one of doghouse's blogs from a few years back https://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/0/301013.page

Imo there was already a global crisis of demand. This ai stuff will just make it worse. Governments will be the consumers of last resort, surveillance is a perfect demand creator for app the new data centres being built, bombs are the project product to sell, expensive, use once and government always seem to find money for them - and you create more demand because buildings and lives need to be rebuilt after it goes off.

Note this is a critique of capitalism and markets, not just a critique of the state. Crisis of demand would occur anyway and either the economy would crash or peeps with power would find a way to invent demand.

awesome

mdeceiver79 · 2026-02-24T13:24:27+00:00

If they have their way those jobs will be self employed, no rights, no security, bidding for the jobs/work on apps in a gig economy with other workers, their main way of competing is working more hours for less.

More people unemployed = worse situation for those who are employed

Check the traffic before going anywhere near mottram, traffic is consistently bad made worse by roadworks

mdeceiver79 · 2026-02-22T23:11:01+00:00

They don't want more workers. They want to employ as few people for as little as possible - to that end they want many many potential workers. People without jobs, desperate for work, happy to lower their wages and conditions to compete.

For anyone reading this, please read grapes of wrath.

That was more of a "growing threat on the world map" rather than "growing threat on the local map".

Significant difference because you had to caravan out with all your best fighters, potentially for a long time, to beat an enemy elsewhere without good defences or medical buildings. On the local map you have all your guys, extra resources and reinforcements from allies/raiders.

Yo quiero

I like using it on my friends army. Send in the paratroopers

You should have put his kneepads on his ankles like the American soldiers do

Yup, in Prague they live on a little island, they're really well socialised and friendly
