OK guys i decided to update you with the progress i've been making.

I'm practically done the creature file, The only thing left is to implement some natural skills, size variations and the actual venom, as well as make the butchery remains
sensible

So now i have a small question Insanegame, How do you want your castes to differ from each other? So far i made the drone exactly like the worker but with no stinger and capable of breeding, The soldier has iron grade chitin instead of the copper grade chitin that the worker has as well as being slightly larger, and the queen is significantly larger and has meteoric grade chitin. Anything else? so far it seems that the soldier caste needs more variety.

I want the drone male and slightly larger than a soldier. Thus after the queen chooses her mate, any other drones can be military leaders.

Workers, soldiers = sterile females
Drones = males
Queen = female

OK everyone, looks like cannabilism of the weak is a thing. Reaction in a workshop transforms a wasp into a pet "meat wasp" to be butchered

1, 2, 3, 4, 5.

Nice, 5 posts in a row with no content at all, when editing the last post marks the topic as "new" anyway.

I have one question for you Insane, because I can't understand what's going on here.

Are you making the race with a little help, or are you just overseeing others working on your idea?
This is not intended as an insult or anything, I am really wonderring.
