hehe sure, and what about some toughness stats like cars, perhaps speed also, or is that too detailed?

"Aiming To Misbehave".....


That is one of my favorite quotes from the "Firefly/Serenity" series!


Another one my favorite quotes is in the episode, "Our Mrs. Reynolds"

They are on a horse drawn wagon and get ambushed.
Reynolds, dressed as a woman, says while pointing his pistol at the ambush leader, "I swear by my pretty floral bonnet, I WILL end you!"

The western style of storytelling in a futuristic setting is fantastic!

I wish they would continue that series.... But it's not to be!


If I ever come across the FOX exec who decided to cancel that show, I will beat the dumb right out of him.

EDIT:

PEDS CLIMBING ONTO CARS!

You know that old B movie where they have to climb onto rocks and cars (only helps a limited time) and kill huge burrow worm monsters with dynamite and trick them off cliffs!

Pickups could have an ability to move at certain speeds with peds on the cargo bay. (=ped turrets ehhehehe)

Oddly enough after I patched, My first wilderness travel encounter between SS and GW was against the Texan truckers. I said "who?"

I had to go look them up and for good reason, they are attached to Texan and I don't scout Texan.

Strange to see a Texan gang a few thousand miles from their home town looking for trouble. lol

Wow...I hope you have a LOT of spare time because that is going to take a LONG time! I'd even take a couple of extra baseball bats along just in case of breakages. :)

Nice work on the new Bestiary JD and Sam!

Wow never realized there are so many ways to be supper

Would be sweet to bump into these critters while fighting pirates or running away from the bad guys on travels

They do appear during vehicle scouts, typically toward then end when several peds have been injured.

yeah they do, I was asking if you could see them occasionally at the start and through the whole event if they don't run away.

They can be neutral observers so to speak

Good idea. That's kind of how I originally imagined it actually.
Would you need to get rid of them before looting could start?

Can't imagine they'd be too interested in engines, weapons, etc.

They just want the meat........

Yes. Walking around trying to loot cars, pulling bodies out of them, etc, would be pretty hazardous if there were a couple of grasshoppers trying to eat you. I think they'd have tobe either gone or running away before looting could start.

So we'd have to be careful not to make it tedious or too common..

Yeah I think you really wouldn't want to start looting before all critters are either dead or fleeing. Perhaps use the "The remaining enemies are attempting to flee!" message to allow the players to end the scenario without having to hunt down one last grasshopper stuck on a fence somewhere on the map.

Unless of course the critters just don't ever flee.. hmm.
