My lore idea for season 2: After signing the peace treaty, the Rebels and the Marshalls pin the blame for the nuclear attacks on Richard and his operation, showing evidence that the nukes used were of Gun Empire manufacture. They end up locating and raiding the Gun Empire HQ, aiming to take it over and glean the secrets of nuclear weapons and Mech manufacture from them. Downs, having foreseen this (because she smort), asked Richard to send out the Dove and the Trinity so they can evacuate HQ. While waiting, Downs and the people at HQ begin wiping all the Databanks and gathering as many resources as they can at the air strip before finally rigging the entire mountain base to collapse once the united Rebel and Marshall task force break through the automated defenses and enter the base, burying everyone inside (and possibly faking Richard's and Scott's deaths with some bodies they left behind?). Richard and Scott must now rapidly consolidate their new-found empire in preparation to stand against the Allied Nations, carve out a new HQ in these lands (either at the Citadel or a new secret mountain base) and maybe seek out allies in unexpected places... *Political factors in that region:* • After the death of Big Daddy, the Slavers lost cohesion and the Unshackled have been raiding their camps to free the Impid slaves and absorbing remnants of the Mountain Devil Mafia, leading to the emergence of new, free Impid factions (I believe there was two or three new ones that sent out trade caravans?) • A mysterious benefactor has been providing the Union of Banña with makeshift gunpowder weaponry and the Thrumbonians have increasingly begun adopting these new technologies after centuries of holding to tradition and the old ways. Old technologies are rediscovered, new avenues are explored and the Union finds itself looking outward. What could have possibly initiated this sequence of events? What mysteries are afoot in the background? And will this development be a boon, or will it be a curse for those living on the Rim...? • The Outlanders find themselves confronted with the harsh reality of a new peace brokered between the two major factions on the planet. A loose collective hive of scum and villainy that was largely left to operate on it's own must now fear increased scrutiny and territorial ambitions from Rebel leadership as resources are freed up and redeployed from the war effort. Luckily a new faction has emerged nearby and swiftly taken down the notorious DMM, a faction that is well funded, well armed and willing to trade. A new player is in town and the various Outlander faction leaders will have to adapt to the winds of change - or be buried together, their petty squabbles just a footnote in history. That's all I have for you atm. *PS:. This is for if you intend to include the anomalies into season 2:* • Unnoticed by most at first and roughly coinciding with the time after the first nuclear bomb detonation, strange occurrences all across the continent have become the talk among trade caravans, free radio stations and occasional drifters lately. Rumours are, the alliance between the Marshalls and the Rebels might not be as straightforward as it seems. Was it truly the threat of nuclear war and the loss of a mere two colonies that led to these two factions coming together in peace or is there something more sinister afoot? Some even claim to have heard tales of lone refugees, near catatonic and traumatized beyond compare, originating from the towns that were destroyed in the recent nuclear shelling incidents. Dismissed as the ramblings of crazed desert wanderers at first, tales of strange creatures and inexplicable anomalies have found much more credence among some of the more conspiratorial denizens of the Rim, even leading some to suggest that perhaps it wasn't solely reasons of war that led to the nuclear devastation of what were, in the end, quite inconsequential frontier towns. One question remains to be asked: What manner of nightmares might the advent of nuclear weaponry have attracted the attention of? And what are these strange tales of a mysterious black monolith appearing in former DMM territory, close to the most recent nuclear blast sites...?

God, Scott even looks like CIA, the perfect man to send to start up an illegal gun manufacturer that supplies weapons to both sides covert armies thereby making sure the conflict extends far past when it should have ended.

4:17:30 Obviously this series is old so it's not quite as useful but for bounties, you need to bring the target to one of the faction settlements to receive it. You get the regular amount for a corpse and double for alive. The reward in this case wasn't the 86 gold but 3800 silver, the 86 gold was just the 'bonus' that you received for taking out the bounty camp. It's a bit easy to miss if you didn't read the entire bounty notice since the mission rewards tab only shows the bonus and the actual bounty is in the mission text

Now that I think about it, we've never did find out what happened to the forces that are still loyal to Sherd. So many of them could still be out there, doing who knows what to so many people. I'd like to see a series, with the Anomaly DLC as well, with the focus on both Lercot, Phtspyro, and Slate doing Black Ops missions to hunt down the remnant's of Sherd's forces. I feel like the kids finishing what had been started would be such a good conclusion to a story that had been started way back during the Logging Empire. For both Lercot and Slate, the reasoning is rather obvious; they are finishing a mission that had been started by both Slate's father, Hawthorne, and a mission that had started when Sherd had betrayed not just the Rebels, but many other tribes too when she chose to follow the Ancient Thrumboian. For Phtspyro, though, this was more than just another mission, this was vengeance and justice; vengeance for all of the people and families this group has destroyed in their slaughter of both cities and settlements, vengeance for those that had been wronged by the Ancient Thrumboian and her warriors, vengeance for Phtspyro himself after what they had done to his father, Hak. They had taken the man that had wanted to raise him to be someone great that wasn't in bloodshed but through his good deeds and his kind heart, but he'll never get to do so because of what the Ancient Thrumboian did to Hak on that day in Morisburg City. This would be not just the justice for everyone that wasn't related to Hak, but it also be justice for Phtspyro who had lost everything because of the Ancient Thrumboian who had caused the divide in what was once Sherd's tribe, and he would hunt down the last of the Ancient Thrumboian's Creed to the last. He would not kill the young, though, as they had nothing to do with it. they had simply been born into a bad place and were being raised by monsters to become monsters.

If you ever decide to end the war in Rat Knight universe, then you should create the "Overthrowing Empire" series. It could be like a Mining Empire, but from Rebels perspective, maybe even playing as Oakly that finally destroys Marshalls. However I do understand that this concept can be boring, since it's already been done, so maybe you can play it out as Oakly posing as someone else, to get close with Marshall's. Another suggestion I have is the "Cloning Empire", as Commander Russ being that kind of man, that sends the Scientist Maria (the one that helped to augment and heal Hawthorne) to build an outpost that specializes on cloning soldiers as an experiment, but the end goal being to clone Hawthorne.
