I don't remember his faction off the top of my head It probably would but considering the bugmasters insane stats it probably will be incredibly expensive, also i dont trust slaver guards being able to overwhelm the bugmaster when he breaks out.

The slavers will aggro most of the bandit factions, right? You could probably use it on them, cannibals, ancient machines

Zesty posted:What's important stuff? If you hit the prospect button, it'll show you the possible resources. These are fertility, water, stone, copper, and iron. You want someplace that has all of those, assuming you're playing biologicals who need food and/or you want to use crop products. It will also tell you how the wind is, which is also important unless you use fuel or manual labour for power. The way I picked my base was to scout around The Hub looking for places that had a Copper Resource and an Iron Resource close to each other, and those sites became a shortlist of places to prospect for Fertility, Stone, and Water percentages.

Food, ammo, healing supplies, books, basic construction materials that are not easily made without putting in a lot of research yourself, and of course as many shops as possible to sell your products to. You are in for a seriously hard time if you build in a spot where you have to send a caravan off to a whole region away every time you run out of something important you can't easily make. It's why I prefer populated areas in spite of the added bother of dealing with raids and tax collectors. And yeah, resources also matter, although I specifically installed a mod to make mining ops more viable basically anywhere, so it's not as much of a concern for my own choices.

Tax collectors actually take your money, not just your food.

assuming I want to stick around the holy nation for a while, what do I do with all my non-human dudes? If I just work them in the mines will they get randomly ganked/enslaved by HN assholes?

If you have a male greenlander around you can tell any paladins who wander by that they're your slaves and they'll be cool with it. Unless its a skeleton, to which there is no forgiveness.

If you keep them out of actual sight, like if you stuff them in a closed building when you see the prayer group come around, they also get completely ignored. The HN only cares about non-humans it can see.

The HN only cares about non-humans it can see. I had the Holy Nation come by my outpost to talk to me. I thought about just ignoring them, but figured that would piss them off. I sent a skeleton down to talk to them, and they ran away in terror. How hosed am I now?

Yeah, chances are you get at least a one-off raid. If you want to check how hosed you are in general, go to the factions screen. I think -10 is enough to count as permahostile. You could just abandon camp for a few weeks, tho. They'll probably have forgotten about it by then after they find no one there.

Well, bases are persistent. Anything you leave behind will still be there if you ever come back, barring any food. Some bandits might move in, but if you kick them out then it's all fine again. Running away and living to fight another day is a legitimate strategy in Kenshi.

Option 2 it is, then. Try to find the Flotsam Ninjas and the Anti-Slavers. They would be right up your alley.

The plastic surgeon is only called that, it's actually just re-entering the full character editor for a nominal fee. You get to do everything you were able to do on character creation, except for changing the character's race.

I have abandoned my outpost because the Holy Nation attack squad was like 50 dudes and my 5 robots with iron clubs were not gonna handle that. I retreated to Squin and am waiting them out. How long til they gently caress off?

I think it might require you to stay close enough that the chunk counts as active, but don't quote me on that.

Beep sure is taking their dismemberment pretty well. ...also, these high paladin do seem somewhat resilient.
