BE ADVISED: The last Empire mod update that I had caused bad bugs to occur: missing player faction, error loading map on loading a save game, world pawns not being deep-saved, errors when deleting the settlement defense maps upon defeating an attack even if I allowed the surviving attackers to retreat off the map, thereby causing the settlement map to stay open. Bad stuff. Have not tested it since. Last error log screenshots are from 16th of May.
I will try Empire and RimWar again in a new playthrough. Here's hoping it works. If it does, I'll finally find another use for silver (since I don't buy bionics, weapons, armor or clothing) besides sterile tile, making Archotech Expanded materials or deleting to "pay" for character edits or cheats, as per my house rules.
With these, Hospitality, and Gastronomy, I shall impose my will upon the Rim, that all shall enjoy my beds and breakfasts. And if they don’t, their opinions will be corrected. Violently.
In between these and the mod that allows you to build roads you can have some absurdly powerful nations. But those roads do let the void faction get to your other settlements faster after smashing the first.
Dear Bethany, I hope my letter finds you in good health, it has been almost an entire season since we last saw each other and I absolutely feel the time that has passed. We are being sent to protect the settlement of Great Bubble Butt from yet another enemy raid. It has been ravaged by insectoids as well as mechanoids and bandits, the fighting has been tough, but my new advanced bionic arm seems to do the job quite well. I hope this fight will go well for us and that we will leave this awful rimplanet as fast as possible on the ship, which hopefully will be finished by the time we get back. I love you and hope to see you soon, Jack "AssFace". PS. I sent you a hat made from one of the bandit's skin and also a few fingers to give as snacks to the kids XOXO
While you want goods production in your first colony, you will ultimately want to make your first colony a military base focusing on military buildings while using the goods to pay for the upkeep. Upgrading a colony for military purposes is slow due to the hefty silver cost and time to upgrade so its better to have a lower income early on while building up a military umbrella rather than having a higher potential profit but being constantly raped by enemy raids.
Actually most of the advice and examples I have seen involve setting up your first two colonies simultaneously. One for making money and one for military. It's usually advised to do mining first, since it is the highest profit margin. The idea is the mining settlement is effectively paying for the military settlement and it's upgrades, and the military settlement is keeping the mining settlement safe. As such, keeping the two of them within reasonable travel distance of each other is recommended. Obviously there's more than one way to do things, this just seem to be the safest and most efficient one so far.
@@KeyWiteWolf Yeah, starting with two colonies is great if you have the silver to do so, but early on its rather expensive to upgrade colonies and if you spread yourself too thin you can end up with a weak military colony and you end up bleeding silver because they aren't effective at fighting off military raids. For this reason, I suggest focusing on a military colony first.

Man I've started playing about 2 weeks ago and now my mod list keeps growing and growing and growing lol I love it I am easily going to sink all of my life my marriage and my will im gonna have a catatonic break because im no longer eating at the table send help
Was running an Empires + Rimwar combo and accidentally stumbled on an exploit that makes Rimwar all too easy to win. And you don't even need Empires to use it. You do however need to use base game options menu to allow you having more than one settlement. So I was starting using random landing spot and ended up is a bad tundra swamp. So I decided to pick some berries and caravan to a better spot nearby, but then I noticed that this starting tile had a lot of ship chunks. I didn't want to lose them yet, so I allowed myself having two settlements so I don't have to abandon this first tile before I can build on new one. And as I was building up, I noticed that this empty settlement I left behind was getting a lot of raids from my enemies. My guess is this settlement was considered to be so poorly defended that the enemies were able to send a raiding party with minimal points cost. And constantly expending their points to raid this empty tile there were effectively unable to accumulate enough points to threaten my main settlement. Or any of my Empire settlements for that matter.
I have noticed this too when i move to a new tile, but don’t yet abandon the old base. The old base seems to take to majority of events, allowing me to expand the new tile with less interruptions. Raids and such do still happen, but are diminished for sure.
@Noobert is the Empire mod not usable with 1.4? I have it installed but when I open the settlement tab everything is blank :-/ Really wanna try this mod out if I can get it working. Cheers from Nova Scotia!
yeah its a nice mod but sometimes it bugs and everytime you get a caravan of any faction (including your own) come into the base you get an "ambush" of like 7 enemies without warning
it works with vfe but I personally always started the attacks get my pawns loaded and send the ships as reinforcements so I dont know if you can start one with vfe nice question btw
My strategy on building basicly is build 1 settlement full on making money , then 1 both money and military , 2 settlement full money , then 1 full military , then 2 more full money , then the rest is full military for WORLD CONQUEST!
Yo question I can’t find an answer anywhere but I can’t deploy my soldiers from my settlements to attack enemy settlements it always says there unavailable
@@Noobert I managed to find a solution after asking on the discord turns out you gotta reset the military cool down times in dev mode to fix the glitch it’s weird thanks though!
I had a settlement under attack and on the world map I clicked the settlement followed by the "defend" icon but was told no. Something about "auto-defense must be set to false" - where can I affect that? Also, I set up a military settlement nearby then deployed an assigned squad there, thinking it would take them travel time to get there (at least six hours or so) but they apparently INSTANTLY appeared (not that I could see it as I couldn't access the settlement about to be attacked) then left JUST BEFORE the settlement was attacked, resulting in it getting smashed. It's all extremely counter-intuitive and I realize only now that I should have set this game to "reload anytime" as I hate getting boned by janky gameplay mechanics in lieu of my own ineptitude.
I genuinely don’t understand. So I pay to have a friendly settlement built and the game creates a map & colony & people? Can I control the people? Do they have needs/moods, too?
