THe engine is still idling barely, you'd just need to let more fuel in and go. They are laying on the side of the town facing the stealthed cache, in the shade. You'd have to run blindly into an Old Tech cache to crush them, which could end in you obliterating the Nomad Farmer if they have a hidden nuke.

Alright, do you guys think you can help me with the art?

While the other 2 pixel games are focusing on nomadics, I'm going to have it set in a... Bigger playing field. Same shit, but everything scaled up just to give it a different feeling. :)

Anyone who can help me with art? I'd need ships, spacestations, planets, weapons, armor, grenades, we're going for a mix between X-Com Apoc and UFO Defense here, with a hint of Fallout. :)

Also, suggestions. Do we start on a planet like Apoc, or a space station like UFO Defense? personally I think starting in a station would be best and allow for more dynamic gameplay. We can always just buy bases on planets and asteroids later, anyway.

UFO defence stats in a land base, not a space station, Ehndras. Unless I missed something?

Oh, I was thinking of one of the others then. Interceptor maybe? I tried all the others one after the other so I might be mixing the names.

There's one where you start with 3 ships and you own a spacestation.

Ah, you're right. I'm mixing up Interceptor and UFO Defense. :P

So, it'll be like those and Apoc then, hehe.

I might be able to.

Anyway. I support having our non-seen people snipe them off, while they pretend to be bandits. Fake friendly fire! And while we pretend to fire back, we can hold our ground. Then, while they move forward, we shoot them in the back!

Only one of the rifles is on the town, with one right nearby it. the other two are either out closer to their habs than us, or imitating a rock.

I'd say squish the 4 who are lounging, then drive the habitat away, when the other 2 make to follow we open up on them from behind, then have our habitat turn around. Pincer stylee

You could make some harpoons, you've got plenty of metal. As long as you either flee or pay by the end the turn, you're good, planwise.

I doubt the banditos would just stand there whilst we armed ourselves though.

They aren't watching you, they're just making sure you don't run off. Towns are not in any way stealthy when compared to bandits.

Yeah, but how are we going to make them in the few hours til sunset?


We need an actual rough count of how many there are, maybe we can take them.


The sniping bandit idea is actually very good.

Even better if our 'pilot' says, "Hey, are one of your men over the-"

When he says over, the hidden scouts fire on the two nearest armed men, driving the rest of them to cover. While that happens, the pilot will seem like an innocent bystander cause of his warning, and the 6 on the habitat can get their guns and after a few moments fire back, crippling them.

Of course, I don't suggest we actually WIN the battle entirely. Probably, for game's sake, we'll wound a few, and the rest will get inside and flee the ambush. We can collect a dropped gun or two as battle loot then run off into the night.

Nobody on the Habitat has guns. we took them all with us.

Also, loot and our sucess will presumably be rolled on a die.

You guys have from noon on, not just a couple hours or so. Call MoM with the hand radio things if you need to see the habs better.
Either way though, they have the superior tech.
