What do the purifiers even do?

They get rid of mutations or, if you have none, they're stat boosters.

This time, I hope you'll all watch the now perfect quality video (YAY!). When drkpaladin said to shove them in, I thought he wanted me shove them up my butt. Luckily, he got out voted, I have no idea how to do that.

The Library

Fred set out for the library hoping to find some books to help him install his precious bionics, "These surely will give me the power to eliminate the bovine threat." As he was journeying further north to the library, he calmly blew the brains out of a cow-sympathizer. Further along the road, he saw a group of 4 zombies, with one pinkish one that was seemingly dripping with some kind of liquid. The result, looking back was probably really obvious.



"Argh! Now they're arming themselves with strawberry milk!" Fred screamed. He started running around in agony. Well, not around he proceeded straight north because of the influence of some greater being. Much, much greater being. In fact, the being is so great, it managed to make Fred run all the way to the library even with all the bile on him. Once there, he saw a boomer all by itself, and promptly shot the milk spewing cow. However, worse consequences quickly followed as it exploded with violent force, milk spewing everywhere around it.



However, you can't see any of the bile splatter anywhere because of, um, stuff (I think it's because of the tileset, in the ASCII versions, the tiles around it will turn pinkish.) Anyway, he walked into the library, but the only new book he could find was one on computers, which he took. Such disappointment, it would seem, would have no effect after it had happened so many times, but not being able to have his bionics in certainly strained Fred's will.

Where to next?

A. Start reading books, he might as well gain what skills he can.
B. To the Hardware Store to the NE, we need more tools to fortify the place where we are to read.
C. Shove the Bionics in Commando style!<--- that was all my idea 

A note here, all posters have the right to suggest anything they want, not just my options.

Another note, just 4 more pictures until 100 pictures in this thread! 100 unique pictures, that is.

B...how do you fortify a location anyway?

[The Merchant Of Menace]

Dig pits around it, board up the windows and lay traps.

Dig pits around it, board up the windows and lay traps.

This assumes I know the controls for doing those things.  I do not.  This is the same as in DF, the tutorials say to do this, but sometimes they do not include the key which you're supposed to press. 

[The Merchant Of Menace]

Ah, I thought you were asking in the sense of the game.
You use shovels to dig pits by (a)pplying them in the direction you wish to dig.
Boarding windows and doors is accomplished by (a)pplying a hammer in the direction of the window, which require 2 planks and I think 6 nails, and doors which require 6 planks and 18 nails.
Traps are found in sporting goods stores and random events and can be placed after being picked up by (a)pplying them.

C! I like the way you think.  It might help to be a little drunk first though, just enough to get a bonus to Int from being in a  good mood without the -int from being too wasted/

[areyoua]

I seem to have terrible luck in finding stuff in hardware stores, also I seem to have to much invested in retaining hammers. I'm also going to say that at present, there's just a 55% chance of succeeding, and getting wasted probably wouldn't help that number too much. I'm just going to plug my other series of adventures at http://cataclysmff.zxq.net/SMF/index.php?topic=247.0

The Hardware Store

Fred figured that if the cows could break into a bank, they could break into an unfortified building, so he set out for the hardware store for some tools to help fortify his safehouse when he decided to sit down to read. The moment he left the doors he saw a zombie, but time was of the essence so he simply ignored it and began the journey to the north. At the Hardware store he saw two zombies, both of which he took out at the window with two booming home runs.



He then took out the zombie that had somehow gotten into the hardware store with his nail gun, but in this battle, he took two very painful hits to his left and right arms. In total, he took a massive 5 damage hit. You can imagine the kind of pain he was in as he picked up a crowbar and hammer. The pain was so severe that he didn't realize that he already had two hammers and a crowbar before picking those up.


(the other hammer is on another page)

He noticed this through his fog of pain and dropped 2 hammers and the crowbar, but a further search of the store resulted in only a filter mask and a two-by-four, which is not nearly enough to barricade a porta-john.

What to do?

A. To the Hardware store to the SSE! We can't fail so completely three times in a row!
B. To the Pharmacy! There we can get some stimulants to increase our intelligence and our chances of a successful install!
C. No fortifications are necessary! We don't need any assistance to kill the stinking zombies, so read now!

Totally not a fourth option: Two words. Commando Style.

[Mr.Person]

B! Drugs for the drug god!

[jetex1911]

A, THEN B!

Tnafo!
