A psychic ship landed in the East, where there's no vegetation. We fired at it with 20 explosive shells. We accepted a mission getting 3 sieges, the 1st successfully set up below the ship and fired incendiary shells at us. The next 2 sieges arrived right next to the ship. We called for friendlies to finish off the ship (now at 19%), they landed right next to it and destroyed it. Mission accomplished! The mechanoids now went for the siegers, but were outnumbered and took heavy losses. The siegers then went after the mechanoids coming for the base. Then only the Apocriton (the what?) remained when the siegers fled, so my heroes took it out. zoomed out view
After reading this, I realize I know far less about this game than I did before, which was already almost nothing. One day I'll play this game enough where I'll be cognisant of exactly how stupid I am at it.
I have over 7000 hours and still suck at it. This was all new to me, I was like wtf is that red ring so I hit prtscn. I don't usually play at this difficulty level, I prefer gigantic peaceful communities.
I did have one epic battle before though, a fine 10 minutes or so of RimWorld gameplay reddit alert
