100 Hive Drones w/ 0 Stats | A Kenshi SimCity #1

#kenshi #kenshigameplay
New Kenshi Scenario with 100 0-Stat Hive Worker Drones, basically all Beeps, spawning in at the Leviathan Coast with tons of resources. Can we survive long enough to build SimCity?
HUGE THANKS to KrazyKaiser and Matt for providing me with the custom scenario and confidence to get started on this! Both were kind enough to create a custom scenario to try - I'm linking KrazyKaiser's down below, which I used for this, and we'll hopefully get to try Matt's soon too! :)

[@optimism7880]

Interesting experiment you're running, although I will say the reason that the hive species has three different subspecies is that they all fit relatively nicely into three different roles at their villages. Princes do the smart work, soldiers do the fighting, and drones do the labor. Using a colony only with drones will be a lot harder, because you'll have to fit them into roles they mechanically have debuffs in or don't excel at due to lower limb health. My hypothesis is that you'll start to see some of these difficulties come up in the playthrough, and some will be harder to overcome than others, but I've no doubt you'll make it entertaining. Good luck!

You don't have to rebuild your houses if your characters get stuck, you can just pick them up with someone else. While you can build sth like the great wall of china or a copper exclave you have to be careful with it; the game can detect your copper operation as a second village if it's faar enough away and will send twice as many raids your way. Great Video man, nice to see you back :)

I haven't played Kenshi for a while, but last I did I went around and collected all of the unique characters (like Beep and the robot you can find in the swamp) and I would do just what you are doing now. It did become more like an RTS, but it was interesting because there are only so many unique characters (well there were, this was back when only half the map was released) so you have to be careful about how you allocate your people around the camp. I loved building big bases, making too much food, eventually smithing all of the best weapons and armor and then turning my entire group into bad asses.

I wonder if amphibian realizes that armor king is likely to be in kenshi 2. King says in a dialogue that he's been in business for like 957 years, and kenshi 2 is set 1000 years before kenshi, so I'd say its likely he could even have a story arc, or be a recruitable character
