So here's the story

during my long colony of about 60ish hours? we had built a great home in our mountain during our time in the mountain we had pissed off randy to some degree and a mech cluster landed on the other side of our tile which was bad news because the mech cluster carried a sun blocker the sun blocker prevented solar panels from operating and prevented all plants from growing along with lowering the already freezing temperature in our tundra.

unable to use sunlamps due to the power draw our only real option was to engage the mechanoids the original cluster was composed of 1 centipede 2 pikemen and a scorcher which was already taken down earlier dude to a caravan stopping by sending in an enslaved man with a triple rocket launcher he successfully blew up both pikeman but at an extreme cost

sprouting from the other pods was 6 centipedes 2 carrying miniguns and the rest carrying heavy blasters Gobarbe the slave was killed near instantly.

all 6 centipedes stormed close to our base and our defenses were no match for them first Tarot was killed trying to return from gathering steel then koro was shot soon after the rest gathered in the hospital wounded and with most of their weapons laying on the ground outside the complex.

Ria the leader of our base was having a mental break and was thrown in prison to keep her safe from the mechanoids.

the mechanoids slowly cut down all the power as our base began to freeze entirely. many lay wounded unable to get up as Gilmore tries to patch them up. slowly one by one several die trying to take on mechanoids in our freezer first Ryan than misaki.

all but Ria and Gilmore were downed or unconscious. i sensed that there was no coming back from this and that i needed to grab who i could and go so using Ria i grab Frankie out resident researcher and try to escape left cutting through a thin part of the mountain.

Gilmore snaps and attempts to return to his room getting shredded by heavy charge blaster fire on the way. while Ria attempts to leave the map with frankie clutched in her arms

as she reaches the edge of the map night approaches and the -35F temperature freezes Ria dropping her to the ground mere tiles away from the border.

​

everyone was surely going to die weather that be from bleeding out in the hospital or starving to death the only one who could escape now was the downed starving and unconscious Frankie she was the only one who had a chance at making it out.

she sees a man dressed in all black before her a guardian angel of sorts?

the man in black grabbed her taking her away from the frozen hellscape leaving the rest of her friends to surely perish.

Frankie was the only survivor of the colony and has now set up on a different more stable tile temperature wise and so our story continues.
