Lathrix, just a reminder. The Twin Guard comes in pairs. Always. Thus, there is two bases, the Juggernaut and the Bertha

Yeah, low self-esteem is his sex appeal, I'd say.

[@GridM0nkey]

I still would love to see a ramp vehicle that drives at he enemy, and puts on a huge burst of speed and slams under the foe, with spikes, or perhaps even better, upward facing guns, maybe basic autocannons/lasers to just gut it from below/inside.

[@thefirstprimariscatosicari6870]

GridM0nkey Upwards graviton ram advanced cannon?

[@Ranade_Empor]

Profile picture checks out.

[@lastshadow2542]

The Twin Guard has two bases. The one you spotted isn't their main base.

[@bluestorm749]

Please play Empires of the Undergrowth, it is about ants. We all know you love ants. 🐜❤️

[@xeonass5247]

i have a ant colony as pet

[@schlongalongadingdong564]

are you a AC fam seed

[@karls8103]

only like 6 lvls no point yet

[@bluestorm749]

Keith Daniel Rodulfo Partially, I used to own a large ant-colony and watch AC all the time, but now I don't own a colony, but still watch him. BTW Lathland watches AC.

"Overconfidence is a slow and insidious killer unless it involves cram cannons its really bloody quick and painful" -Lathrix 2018

[@BigFan-tb3mc]

hey lathrix i really like it when you capture a vehicle and turn it into your own twisted creation so may you please do this at some point in this campaign

[@kemui696]

he cant, the campaign has a build limit of 2000 and most of the enemy has a value greater then that so he cant repair them ore change them with out deleting half the build

[@Argonwolfproject]

24:30 Dammit Valve, what have we told you about those bloody random crits?

[@bluestorm749]

I have just had a genius idea... Make a self-replicating or a mothership-type thing vehicle that creates these drones and each of these drones has a spinner attached to them, or they are just a spinner with wheels, whatever floats your boat.

[@teddybutter1764]

hello from Grand Cayman (carribean), I love your stuff and cannot wait for every new episode, whether K&C, FTD, Terratech, DRONE, anything really ;).

[@inlovewithgoats1092]

You can't imagine how happy I was when I heard the name Matriarch.

[@familyyoung3710]

Its interesting that in the fight with the treadstone, when the dut devils were underneath it the one cannon tower was shooting at them and hitting the treadstone

[@lukevankleef4245]

I honestly never thought I would catch up with your From the Depths series. But I made it.

[@legacyman6921]

The twin guard are the TWIN guard, they have TWO bases... They are also on opposing sides of their territory.

[@crimson8590]

love your vids man, keep it up!

[@jakeslimeslayer8174]

Lathland, you're my favorite youtuber, keep up the great work!

[@fitos546]

I believe that a vehicle that has some traits of the Onyx Watch might be fitting, at least lore-wise. It maybe fun to build...?

[@32HellRaider]

Could you build a carpet bomber? It’d look pretty sweet seeing the sky’s darken with explosive containers of death, leading up to the targets.

[@MinecraftianV]

"Hahaha! We don't name our ships with paperwork and words on the side of our ships! We name our ships with a ceremony of the enemy's blood!"

[@nyarlathotep7204]

Didnt see the video, but judging by description, I would say you will use some kind of spinny doom machine to destroy huge boss with huge guns. Anyway, If it would be possible, could you do some ramming exploding vehicle using ammo barrels? Some kind of cheap spear bike/car, that would ram into opponents with ammo barrels. I understand it wont be efficient, but I know you can do anything for derpiness and random stuff. pretty please :3

[@jamesshabizz8637]

Honey Badger i believe he already did that

[@MrShudragon]

yeah, the bikes he made a while back send out advanced cannon shells from the ejector thing all at once. Deadly if they hit, but they are like copperheads and just explode xD

[@suddenlythatenderman5800]

Lathrix “treadstone get down from there”. Sounds like your talking to a cat lath

[@Tonareification]

To add to the lore/ role play you should add ranks to the vehicles. If a crew shows valor in combat/scrappiness they can get promoted.

[@maszugsh9009]

Can someone do an animation or animaic of all the highlights of this playthrough in the style of a real robot anime? Where the dust devil testing grounds and the guards in the tower turning trator ect. I'd love to see this stories behind the stories.

[@generalirons9789]

Today on Top 10 From The Depths Betrayals: Rhino-chan: NOOOOO Devil-senpai, not from behind!

[@Argonwolfproject]

If any of my ideas would have made it into canon, it would've been the Ambassador. Glad you liked it! Maybe there is room for long-winded lore after all! (Don't worry, I'm not taking that as a challenge to make 3-page descriptions). I also thought it was neat that I'm not the only one who called the Matriarch's little moons "probes".

[@Lathland]

Honestly your lore for the other vehicles was great too, always love the detailed lore sections.. even if they do kill me to read out loud haha!

[@Argonwolfproject]

Thanks, I hope you got a kick out of the satellite description. =) I had the most fun writing it tbh though I know it wouldn't fit the theme very well.

[@thedinkster6581]

make them feel more make shift and scrappy sounding

[@thepanzerofkriegii859]

I love this series, I think you should build a super tank that will go with you attacking fleet!

[@zackeysahebzada3293]

Hi Lathy, suggestion for your next build; Could you make a fast bomber the uses the drop barrels from cram cannons? I feel like this is an underused weapon and it would add another layer of differences to the Legion. If not fast then maybe a slow heavy bomber with minimal ammo. This way it can retain your honor rules. Thanks mate

[@ToaDrakua]

Man, I'd love to have my own lore ideas featured, but oh well, guess I'll just be content buzzing in random conversations between two engineers arguing over a transport-turned-fighting vehicle.

[@bugsy1563]

MATRIARCH AND PATRIARCH FOR LIFE! :P I remember season one. With custom cannons being big green things and before your honor rules. For those that don't know, the two ships mentioned above are two massive capital ships that were somewhat game breaking in size that lathrix created to crush foes mercilessly mwoohahahaha

[@DiamondPanda207]

the missiles hardly dent the heavy armor but they chew through the lighter stuff allowing the tanks to get the full effect of hesh :D

[@silverstorm8281]

I'm just waiting to a 500mm Graviton ram - railgun craft

[@valkyrie1689]

Maybe a heavily frontal armored casement 500mm tank? All the defensive armor in the front and a bertha typed boomstick not the tank you wanted but still a fun little idea, and it'll challenge your building style. As always your videos are great Lath, see you next time in FTD

[@rg9622]

From the depths is back baby

[@IExistSometimes]

Calling the melee vehicle the devil also works on the level that it sounds like deviljho from monster hunter, which is lorewise a being of complete rage with a face covered in teeth that simply charges at and eats anything it sees.

[@ARockyRock]

Make a large, high speed missile tank land skimmer. Call it... The E. Coli You know why.

[@bluestorm749]

18:47 "The poor devil" Do you even think before speaking, bro.

[@Lathland]

"The poor devil" is actually a pretty common saying in the UK. So much so it has some entries - www.thefreedictionary.com/poor+devil - www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/poor%20devil - Basically meaning someone you feel sorry for, normally someone who is not the best of people, though it can apply to just anyone too, and since the melee vehicle is even called the 'Dust Devil' It was very fitting at the time! - Hence poor 'Devil'. I do think before speaking.. sometimes, anyway, but not often! ^^

[@bluestorm749]

I know, I am from the UK. :)

[@bluestorm749]

From West Sussex.

[@bluestorm749]

I am just more accustomed to someone saying "poor soul".

[@zekedia2223]

The soul named john barosa.

[@suplementz3552]

YES THANK YOU

[@suborbitalprocess]

34:43 "For the greater good"? That sounds suspiciously like Tau talk, Lathrix...

[@twitchthesquirrel6107]

The next vehicle that you make should use some pieces from the onyx watch. Maybe some castle pieces or cram canons (I think that's what they're called)

[@AylorAivo]

possibly the centre of mass of the tread-stone was high up so it got lower priority?

[@sam8076]

could you add the machine cannon to the cram tank (forgot name) ?

[@seancarroll9849]

The Amazing Scrapper Adventures, Part ??? - 'This is what happens when you don't keep track.' Miles Fahy had been working in the company vehicle bay when the scramble came again. It looked like the spearhead got into a brawl, a big one, with the Onyx Watch forces. "What's the situation?" Deborah barked as she leaped into the half track crawler. "Three Rhino...I get the idea this will look really, really messy," Miles spoke up quickly. "Durthu, get on the quad fifties. I suspect more company will arrive soon enough." Once at the battle site, the assessment was made. It looked pretty ugly... "The new Matriarch took some damage, the Pharaoh need more than a buff and polish, the Mosquito require a wrench, and one Eye requires a complete rebuild. Let's not forget our Ambassador. Some could use some tender loving care," Deborah spoke up almost immediately. "The Dust Devil is really very dangerous looking, even in a damaged state. I'm not touching it." "I will be," Miles answered. "There are old pilots, and there are bold pilots. But there are no old, bold pilots except for me...I'm the exception to the rule. The boss wants me to work on a new air vehicle with a handpicked development crew. You may not be seeing me for a week or two. But that is a matter for the future. Right now, let's get this force back in order." Miles had the chance to question the driver of the Dust Devil while working. "This thing is a beast!" "I'm sure, driver, but could you have taken it a bit easier on the chassis? You lost several weapon motor drives. No spin, no shred," reminded Miles. "Killjoy." "If it spares your life, I'll take that barb. You may be getting a second driver in a second unit, so consider my words. If you run into each other, it will hurt...A lot." There was a visible cringe to the driver; he saw what the Rhino looked like...He could imagine what would happen in a head on collision. The second Dust Devil came right on cue, idling in preparation to move out. Miles just gave the wrecked driver an evil eye. "Um, yeah...I see your point. I'll try to be more careful with Lath's vehicle." "You do so," Miles warned. "I do not want to have this discussion again." The repair teams got back to their crawlers soon after, the main force speeding away for more trouble making. "The boss told us to wait station here," Durthu mentioned calmly. "And that's what we'll do," agreed Miles as he watched the portable datalink. The two thrusts were pretty standard faire, but the damage on one tank was amazingly severe. It was minor compared to the repair job they just did, though. This was twice. Finally, they saw it. The Treadstone. "This is going to get painful," winced Miles as two Dust Devils crammed into the large beast of a tank. One such Dust Devil, the new one, got destroyed in the process. It did look painful. "I think we won..." Deborah coughed lightly. "Uh, I wish you the best on that project, Miles. Obviously you'll need it." Miles took an Eye back to base; he was painfully certain of it. A pilot would certainly be needed to give an opinion of flight worthiness, and he was getting bored with always being in the backline. He needed to get his hands dirty. That meant pilot crap.

[@biiill5259]

I thought of a new vehicle you could use. It uses the mechanics of the really fast but inaccurate particle cannon. It basically runs towards the enemy and sprays emp everywhere. It would be called the Tesla

[@Ducktape-]

You should try to do a series where you only use one craft, one massive craft that could take down entire 150 tiles on its own, no drones, but resource zone fortresses and resource transporting craft are allowed

[@Kire2oo2]

Love your videos ^_^

[@dnakmemoor9847]

Look, Rhinos. RRRRHIIIIIIINNNNNNOOOOOOOOOSSSSSSSS! Our enemies hide in METAL BAWKSES

[@Lejimuz]

Maybe the origin block was higher on the treadstone than the turret, which caused it to technically have a higher altitude?

[@tupcho33]

the thing with the spining blocks , somewhat reminds me of the cookie monster ohmnomnom

[@NovaPheonix]

Lathrix! I have a suggestion if you are to build a new tank his is my personal suggestion. *ahem* A tank that has 2 barrels side by side, for the best things come in pairs. Like shotgun barrels. It fires a HESH 500mm and is named the Verräter Combat Tank. (Betrayer in German) It was named this for former Onyx Watch Engineers changed sides and join the Scraper Military! After deepest apologies for the death of civilians they lent they're hands in the creation of a new Frontline tank to take on the new enemies.

[@seanfeezor4575]

To help your legion keep clear firing lanes you should have a plane or a helicopter that makes high up attack runs and fires a huge cram cannon straight down.

[@RookieRogu]

Perhaps you should try to make an airship to perform the same role the krull in the first ashes of the empire campaign.

[@SirStanchez]

Yo lathland you should try space engineers

[@drzoid3708]

Stanley Rudman yes plz

[@winter_2198]

Yes please

[@CareerKnight]

I think he did and didn't care for it.

[@etopsirhc]

it's changed quite a bit since then, but he should probably wait till a month after the survival update they have planned.

[@skorgevondoom___9571]

Stanley Rudman Yep...lathland would love it...when i play i have a lot of pve mods,and mods that constantly make me use my op base defences...goddess bless doom lasers,missles and auto guns...my mobile fortress has made me safe,happy and effective,i recomend automating mining lasers,and have b.o.b(A assistant ai mod) system,it lets you automate your base and lets you focus on building your Horde/fleet I also recommend the fleet command mod...it lets you set up a a.i for your ships and lets you command them

[@ThePrimeSalagy]

Saved by the bell, the notification bell!

[@sovereigncataclysm]

50th :) Try using ACBs to slow down the ramming vehicle so less bounce, also attach a docking station to a plane and dock a hunk of metal to it - then use the metal to ram it :P

[@sovereigncataclysm]

oh, also, onyx watch has a vol limit of 3k :)

[@ljlk8583]

hey lath, can you please make a craft much like the plague guard being very armoured and many weapons on land and use it in this campaign?

[@cindymarie3245]

suggestion: make a craft that will stay out of battle but hold all your resources and will construct all your craft and provide resources for them due to the transfered stuff from all your other veichles

[@Ben_Kimber]

I wonder if it would work well to make a big, fast gunship with very powerful guns and good defence. Maybe even graviton rams? You saw how well they worked against the Nialliv. What if you just made a graviton ram support vehicle with really powerful guns to flip enemies, or send them flying and hurt them with fall damage? A graviton sniper...

[@madhavajish]

Lathrix just handpicks one pilot to suicide bomb the enemy

[@robster7651]

The name i wanted to give the now called ambasador had to do with fireworks. Kinda funny he mentions fireworks in the vid.(the rockets were flying like fireworks)

[@robthehobbit]

lol , loved it :)

[@imnottellingyoumyname7122]

Id upgrade the misquote but a bomber would be more interesting anyway I had an idea. What if you build a turret that builds another one of its self subsequently creating a self building wall.

[@harveydelara5109]

Lathland if you finish the campaign can you make a season? But you can build only insect base craft?

[@johnsmithfakename8422]

If you are taking suggestions on craft designs, I suggest you make a Gunship. A flying craft with a few guns on it to rain fire on the unsuspecting heads of the enemies. ... Personally I want to see a flying wing shaped aircraft.

[@hex9814]

JohnSmith FakeName a fixed wing aircraft would be cool

[@davidduchene823]

maybe make the front center spin-block point forward like a drill

[@reaperhoddok1874]

If you are looking for inspiration for a ship I would look at the gladiator from fractured space in my opinion it looks awesome.

[@Lebensgott]

37:00 didnt the big boy spawn in the air and fell to the ground?

[@JabberwockOclock]

Sure, go after the Twin Guard next, see how well that goes :D Just keep in mind that they are the "Twin" Guard after all.

[@bluestorm749]

The accent on "Twin" there.

[@Argonwolfproject]

So wait are you a developer or community contributor for From the Depths? I see you on these vids a lot and it's clear you've had a hand in making the enemies. BTW the treadstone seemed kind of lonely, maybe it should've had more allied defenses being that it was the main base and all.

[@bluestorm749]

Argonwolfproject Yes he is a developer, more of a designer. And theses fortresses are supposed to be essentially a lone super vehicle.

[@JabberwockOclock]

I'm a KotL (Keeper of the Lore) for FtD. It basically amounts to being a committed member of the community when it comes to supplying and maintaining faction designs, as well as having lesser moderation powers on the official forums and discord server. As for the Treadstone being lonely, I don't know so much about that. Most buildings are not intended to be a credible defense at all, so adding more wouldn't really help. The reason it seems so lonely is that Lathrix isolated it from the garrison in the tile, which is a legitimate strategy. If the issue is merely that the scene seems too sparse then perhaps another tower or so could help make the battle feel more dramatic.

[@JabberwockOclock]

JCR FMD, I wouldn't call myself a developer, that title is for people who get paid to work on the game. I do make life easier for one of the developers though, the one who manages the BP files and campaigns to be exact.

[@mikoajochenduszkiewicz9145]

Lathrix, if you really want to build a 500mm tank could you maybe make it look somewhat like the gustav cannon from wwII? I think it would look really cool.

[@russiandog1855]

Dang I wish I could build like you

[@kcglenn7781]

Hey Lath! You should try Mechanic Miner, and Make Sail!

[@marnixkloppenburg9482]

Yes! Especially mechanic miner! :D

[@thelandofnod2269]

Or airships conquer the skies

[@aerbon]

i believe he has tried airships already

[@fruitella196]

I just came from a mechanic miner vid

[@catgath9718]

The dust devil wanted to eat there dust but could not decide who to start with

[@a.square8658]

Wasn't "Ambassador" the name of the UEF T3 Strategic Bomber from Supreme Commander?

[@viciouschicken9811]

I just picked up the series again after about 20 episodes and the first thing I see is that strange little thing. *What have I been missing out on?*

[@Monroe03]

Wish the missle craft was called the flocket launcher. Oh well next time

[@KitomiKotiri]

Build a bomber and give the mosquito wierdly shaped armor like the scrapworks for better defence against melee and faster then give it distraction missile and some melee capabilities in case it accidentally hits the opponent and call the new version the vampirecs reborn

[@KitomiKotiri]

BTW did a edgey name on purpose just for you😉

[@KitomiKotiri]

Or make a craft that is really defencfive craft that is pretty much only shields

[@Relyt827]

Lathrix could you play around with kinetic shells?

[@kemui696]

lathrix my man, I have a proposal for you. you said at the start of the campaign you would not use a mod to increase your build limit. I can respect that but I also know your a fan of the honour rules. why not get the mod, but say limit your self to 3000 or 3500. just so you can build decent units to contend with some of the late game factions with out having to field hundreds of units that just kill themselves with friendly fire. also this would allow you to fully repair the faction bosses completely and have them as trophies, not just half wrecks chewing up frames and resources for no reason. I think how you play id fine and I always enjoy your content but just a suggestion and letting you know that honour is fine but letting your hair down and going nuts is always so much fun

[@wisermcmuffin155]

I watch the videos to watch the godly adds

[@Daemonworks]

hmm... would a harpoon or two help with the melee bounce problem?

[@Lathland]

The issue is that a little bounce is great, as it ensures damage being done and harpoons have a habit of making a vehicle 'stuck' by cancelling the backwards force... though they are fun! :D

[@arc3028]

Lath, you will play "Forgotten Shores" after the public build is out? (You know about Forgotten shores, right?)

[@shaggy6603]

what about some sort of torpedo plane which would go high before diving down so fast it couldn't be hit, before it fires its payload.

[@icantpronounce]

you could say the dust devil is good at cleaning up

[@marvingroundwater1863]

i imagine the dustdevil saying MINE MINEMINEMINE MINE MINE MINE MINE MINE everietime it rams somthing

[@major.sterben3591]

Pls make a tank like a boat that you made back in one of your first campaigns that had bad armor but had two cannons and a extremely good shield

[@gfoog3911]

My opinion on the melee vehicle: It's dust too good!

[@irugelgumiho5195]

making a book about a Latrixian legion is not a bad idea

[@D-34]

if you upgrade the mosquito are you going to rename it?

[@madhavajish]

I miss the old days of colossal battles in Neter

[@SrLacia]

Hey just popping in but can you name a vehicle Shuvi at some point - Just a name close to my heart :)

[@1983Darkshark]

Where are the CRAM cannons Lathrix?

[@moiramain2k]

Make a rapid fire particle cannon tank for derpyness

[@ThatGuy-vw6gc]

How do you make the Ai aim perfectly? I have tried tons of different settings but it doesn’t aim properly..... help? Great episode by the way

[@bradleyfisher9814]

That Guy are you using detection systems? Also you need those processing cards on the ai

[@ThatGuy-vw6gc]

Yes I have tried everything and I have always had enough processing power so that it can run at 100%

[@ThatGuy-vw6gc]

The only thing that would aim would be missiles since I use the heat detection warheads. I have also made sure they have enough room to move about by copying the cannon and then putting it on a structure with no armour or cap

[@michaelgaylor7485]

Hey lath make a flying drone that has an hesh cannon on the bottom and on top what ever you want to add

[@gabrielpersson2819]

Instead of making a tank or upgrade the mosquito why not build a plane? it was long since you built one on video right?

[@grbe4199]

Why do you not make a particle cannon satellite it would be nice
