@Mr Frog:

Are yoiu having touble making things out due to how light the lines are? If it is the size, click the image- it'll take you to tnypic, where you can click something along the lines of "see full image" to make things easier...

@Spearbreakers Community & Fanbase

Is there a way to upload the image in a decent size? Do not turn into derail, please.

More because of the quality of the image than anything else. The lines are dark enough to provide contrast, it's just that the image itself is a touch blurry.

other then that hope you all a good thanksgiving, drink, eat and Spear some goblin brains everybody! just dont pike the spawn....they can barely get killed by that unless you manage to hit their weak hearts...(has a sawn ever died of a "heart" attack?!) or being torn in to by being bashed by the spear shaft.

The railguns weren't meant to be de-powered the way they were, which may be the problem.

They aren't depowered per-say, just right now the attack is more like being hit with a supersonic carp than a slug or bullet.

Considering the game, "supersonic carp" probably isn't the best metaphor for depowered....

They weren't meant to really pierce so much as crush everything the round hit and kill with the impact against whatever happened to be in the way, this usually being a tree or wall, with the minimum effect being severe debilitation from having one or more bones broken by one shot (multiple injuries made possible by "skidding" across the ground.) Of course compared to crossbow it's still a massive improvment since even a bad marksman will seriously fuck someone up with one shot.

Idea that popped into my head while reading this that probably has been done a million times before but who cares I'm posting it anyway: Land Carp.

@Splint From my experience using the railguns one dwarf is barely useful, but a squad will take out anything that feels pain and send a mega spawn back about twenty tiles.

Well I kinda have reactions down so I intend for them to be instant death but take a ton of resources to produce, or at least alot of micromanagment during production. Worst I'd do with ammo is having to get it magnetized or something similar, but the weapon itself will be well worth the effort to get them if all goes properly.

Okay, Splint:

Spoiler: Original (click to show/hide)

Spoiler: 3D Render (click to show/hide)

It feels like it's lacking in details, and it's completely untextured - it just has colors as placeholders. Even so... Eris railgun. :D To an extent. It's a bit difficult to convert flat 2D to 3D. If there's anything I should fix, give me a heads-up.


edit:
Mr Frog, Sky Carp seems a more unpleasant alternative.

TalonisWolf: That looks epic. :D Very nice. I like that more than the image I already had in my head. lol

Cynm: About the radiation mod: Yes, I know that the flashy icons need to be changed - nobody liked them, for one thing. I'm not sure what to change it TO, though - nobody liked the text tags, either: "Dwarf mutant" supposedly got annoying. If you don't have it put somewhere that they're mutants, it's impossible to tell if you're in a radiation biome to begin with except for the effects, which can take some time to manifest. That, and some creatures are inherently immune to the effects of radiation.
