Miscellaneous Changes

- Jewel, the unique recruit now owns the Smuggler's Bar in vanilla, now named "The Punchy Gar" overall intent is to have the bar be a place the player can travel to and move world-states without being directly involved. To allow for playthroughs where you play as a party uninterested in the affairs outside of your scope.

- Towns and Settlements to be moved and / or redesigned to better conform to the terrain around them to add more visual aid to the world building of Kenshi.

- New Fake Slaves in Mourn which operate the machines and sleep in the camps scattered throughout the town as explained by the barman in vanilla.

The United Cities

- Ruled by Emperor Anzai, Anzai is intended to be a critical character who's death will eventually not only affect the empire but also signify the turning of the page for the whole continent. Therefore his death would be better delayed to experience the continent during the time period.

- Mourn has been restored to Empire Control and functions as the third capital of the empire, along with Heng and Heft as indicated in development blogs.

- New Noble Lord Kurusaga, mentioned in Luquin's story. Rules over the city of Bast and the surrounding region. His death will leave the town in ruins. Holy Nation patrols do not spawn in Bast while he is alive and free.

- New Noble Lady Tanaka, ruler of Clownsteady and historic survivor of the Red Rebellion.

- Southern UC towns begin the game malnourished and will remain so until the Red Rebellion has been ended. Making travelling in the south require decent provisions.

- A few new generic villages in The Hook to bring more life to the otherwise, mostly empty Region.

- Two new cities, The Hook and Shun. Replacing the two Abandoned Towns that can be found in vanilla placed in the locations that share their name.

- New Slaver Caravans to allow for delivery of generic slaves to prevent the depletion of city-based slave work-force.

- Slave Camps are functional and produce goods without player interventions.

- Drifter's Last, Clownsteady and Bast have received complete overhauls while still retaining their vanilla essence.

- New road from Brink leading to Flats Lagoon, skirting the edge of Venge and the Forbidden Zone, Intended for heavily armed Trader's Guild Caravans heading south.

- Black Scratch is a fully controlled UC town.

- Fort Yabuta now exists on game start and later becomes Fort Simeon if he is dead. Yabuta Outlaws patrol spawn by default and later vanish.

Skeletons

- Black Desert City has a visual overhaul.

- The Deadlands have had their "Twisters" restored. They are tornados of fire which work similar to Venge beams.

- The Deadlands now also have larger gas clouds which make traversal more difficult.
- It is impossible for fleshies to obtain 100% resistance to all risks in the Deadlands, Skeletons therefore are your best bet when it comes to reaching the city and the Scraphouse.

- More broken machines to be in the deadlands to make it even more dangerous to travel through.

- Scraphouse to recieve a full interior overhaul.

- Possible "Hunger" mechanics, implementing the defunct items of vanilla as skeleton only food items which they "eat" to repair themselves after putting their millennia old bodies through hell saving your squad.

- New Unique recruit planned to loiter in The Punchy Gar (Smuggler's Bar) will fill characters in on the new hazards of the deadlands and potentially join your squad.
