Drumming up the mob at the radio station is quite useful. The odds of finding a rube who's using the second amendment are surprisingly low.

I assume it was about cod tendies and an austerity-caused crunch in the supply of good boy points.

6.  Nail the radio station and tv station in a vehicle[/] in armed murder sprees, it will be rednecks and rubes rather than cops, lvl up them gun skillz

Fixed that for you, good plan otherwise.

When trying to flee the rednecks and rubes, they tend to swarm, but most don't have firearms.  So by raiding the radio station and tv station in a vehicle, most of your enemies will be unable to attack you when fleeing afterwards.  Free target practice!

Why flee? Kill em all, and if everybody on the squad has about 14+ agility then you can outrun anything on foot

It sounds like he's not saying to run away instead of fight. Rather, if you drive a car you don't risk being swamped by pitchforks when fighting in the car chase. On foot you may be better off running away when the 12-15 rednecks show up, since the sheer numbers can make up for your first strike capacity.

That's correct, thanks Jonathan.

This is quite true.  And until CarJousting is implemented, those pitchforks are useless in car chases.

I agree with Urist. Steampunk is like Darth Vader winning Holland's Next Top Model. It would be awesome but not something I'd like in this game.

Unfortunately dying involves the amputation of the entire body from the dwarf.

Actually I was talking about using the pitchfork weilding mobs to train dodge.  By then you squad should all have ok dodge and great health, if the mob gets in 4 rounds of attacks, then nobody should die.  Its the best way ive found of training dodge for a full squad of 6.

Eh, I'd probably want to run a few rounds from the safety of my car prior to facing the pitchforks.  But once those guns skills get to Gangta levels (skill level of 2), it's not a bad plan.
