Just a little trip to Shark

[villi.g.diot]

We've been before, wasn't too far. And we need some mercs to boot the damn Band of Bones out of our swamp/border base.
Uneventful so far... Wait what's that bolt doing in my leg? Aargh: Ninjas!
OK, they weren't too bad, although my Bonedog handled the last 3 while everybody else was bleeding out.
They had a nice bit of loot as well, needed a crossbow.
Best make camp for the night until everybody can walk again, Bonio's got our backs...
Why is the dog growling?
Aargh spiders! I literally hate those things.
So, don't camp near dead bodies in the swamp at night. Let's shuffle back to the village, we haven't come very far and the spiders seem to be multiplying.
Oh look, red sabers on the road, maybe it's time for a swim lads...

I am literally sweating right now, this game is a terrifying masterpiece.

Props to LoFi for making it through, Sake all round!

can build a body furnace all that dead and dying bodies of flesh attract more enemies and predators:)

if you swim make sure got lots of food they gobble it up faster than walking i hear.

He was on the road to shark and didn't have the option of tossing them in the furnace. Glad to see someone else set up a border base though, it's a pretty sweet spot.

Minus the spiders... I will eventually move my base again to have a better "jumping" point into Reaver territory, but that's some time off. Those spiders wreck my hired mercenaries almost every time. :( I want a refund.

It can happen but is much more rare than it used to be. They had a few patches for "the problem" several times in the past few months.

that's kinda reassuring. I've got a ole boy running there as we speak.
It was a rough time a few months ago when I was having extream pathing problems trying to run around those center bars, and dude just wanted to walk in the water all the way around during said "problem"
I just wanna keep bribing the holy nation into peacefull while I murder them all.

If by 'problem' you mean pathing issues - I'm not sure.
I micromanaged every step there the first time from the spider plains, and this time I got wrek'd before getting to the end of the clearish route to the northwest.
But to be fair just clicking the destination in the map and hoping to arrive seems to asking for trouble in the nightmare that is the swamp.
And I didn't think about the chance that merc's would have wildlife issues on the way to the outpost, might have to just grind some more ore and go hire a load of Shek from Squin
