| "another two came at him with Yari. Stabbing spears. He dodged the charge of the first man, slicing his neck as he passed, before bringing his sword up, slicing off first the second man's spearhead, then slicing a deep gash through his face, killing him too." | |

| "another man came at him with a naginata. Father easily dodged his swings before cutting him down, taking his weapon. Wielding the naginata in one hand, and katana in the other, he cut down a further four bandits one by one. At this point the others realised their mistake and came at him together rather than piecemeal" | |

| "Father retreated to a building down the street. One abandoned after one of their raids. The head bandit sent the others in after him. Father had already exited by a top floor window. He locked the door from the outside and lit a match. He had already coated the interior of the house with flammable oils. With the others dead it was just father, and the head bandit." | |

| "it is the way of the land. When clans wage war upon each-other, only the warrior caste are involved. The civilian and servant castes are not. They are not targeted, they are not harmed. As a result, there is little civilian or servant caste hostility or or hatred towards the warrior caste, no matter the clan, allowing warriors of all clans to take refuge, rest and feed at towns." | |

| "The Daimyos have their squabbles, their differences. So long as the shogun's laws and commands are followed then they are allowed autonamy. They use these wars to settle rivalries or personal hatreds, with the oaths to not harm civilians preventing permanent damage to any other than the participants" | |

Well.... A medic and a worker are just wandering aimlessly around the desert, "going to airlock" kilometers from the base... They are running low on oxygen, food and water... I think my people are finally starting to cave in under the pressure of being Satans chosen... Update: Now a bunch of people keep doing it... I think the end is nigh... .....a meteor just got through 3 anti-meteor lasers, and hit an airlock that was currently in use... we lost a stahanovist worker in that one.... meanwhile, the medic is just in full "run for the hills!" mode... I feel like this is like one of those mindfucking horror stories where people would rather die of thirst, hunger, and suffocation out in the wilds than stay a single minute longer in the base... Although my main problem right now isnt even that... its that the AI is so fething....dumb... instead of doing logical things, it just assigns, say a biologist to live in one end of the base, work in another end, and eat in a third end... so it spends half his day just walking around even though he has all facilities required accessible in the first end too, and his assigned work hardly gets done and now i have a full bio-dome in shambles... not to mention that now that ive reached almost 100 population, things are just going downhill like crazy, since, as usual, population generates unhappiness, for some obscure gameplay mechanic reason... "Oh, we have a thriving industry, agriculture, and medical sciences here? i dont care! there are too many of us so im grumpy and refuse to do my job!" "But if you dont do your job, we wont have food and start to starve..." "I said im grumpy! and youd better do something about it or i will be even grumpier when we start starving!" "But you have plenty of access to all morale-boosting facilities and practically infinite booze! i literally cant do anything more if you refuse to use all of those!" "I said i am grumpy! did i fucking stutter?!" What the hell kind of savages are these anyway?! they are making booze out of onions and tomatoes! Update: ......okay, this is just ridiculous now.... right now, even a constructor bot is running away into the desert rather than stay at the base.... I even had to start construction on a Monolith, an epic and totally pointless symbol of achievement, to appease the gods of RNG so that they might spare my poor people from their wrath in the form of giant rocks falling from the sky...... Update: .....well... i built the monolith... 5 minutes later, a meteor hit the excercise room i also just built and killed an engineer... and im at least 3% certain it was the one who built the monolith... the gods either do not like excercise, or the monolith, and i am unsure which one... Update: ....the gods are still angry with me... i increased interception chance to 90%, so with my 3 lasers thats a 0.1% chance of a meteor getting through all three... well, one got through and killed 2 people in my factory... 3 seconds later another got through and killed another 3 in their cabins... We need to build a bigger useless monolith! | |
