((On a side note, Zanzetkuken is one of the actual players in the game I'm running my friends through but it's going a bit slow in the real world, whose willing to play it if I start up a game for it here? I will provide a map this time and better rules than my previous attempt))

(Is it the one where my sister is carrying a dragon egg and the guy with a pet bear made an ungodly overpowered hammer out of our quest reward?)

(Also, the working ones aren't guns.  Any gun-like relics (if they exist) are broken beyond repair.  The weapon relics are unused, non-nuclear, bomb-like devices that were studied (results archived, then carefully remanufactured into, basically, explosive Ballistics bolts.  All other relics are a few articles of carbon nanotube-like clothing that they partially replicated and have their people outfitted in, some that helped increase their industrial capacity to above average levels, knowledge of how to efficiently channel water from the river to their settlement underground, as well as using that water to cultivate varieties of plants (primarily mushrooms, algae, and moss) (they feed Khajiit by some sterilization practices they developed to make the meat of the mutants they have to fight safe for consumption), and deep-mining practices to collect metals more easily.  Sounds like a lot (hell, they might have the highest level of advancement), but they A) have been developing on the surface for a lot longer than other civs have, and B) are under attack on a near daily basis (and have gotten stronger with each advancement).)

The Heavy Infantry are told to fall back to the archer line. Since they are lighter than the Very Heavy Infantry and Super Heavy Pikemen of the enemy it should be ok. Have the archers fire exclusively on the enemy crossbowmen. Cavalry is to kill off all artillerymen and then target archers if possible.

Hang on a minute that's not right at all. Zanzetkuken gets all of that, yet the rest of us are stuck with the standard medieval fare? That's not right at all :|

Obviously, it is because we didn't ask. :-\ Dibs on the weapon tech!

Maybe the GM should roll every turn to see if they get attacked by mutants? Also, Khajiit don't exist yet I think - only humans, elves, and redguards at the moment. Not entirely sure though.

I forgot to mention this earlier, but the routed cavalry from before should go out and prepare to charge the enemy crossbowmen. My archers should be providing covering fire by targeting the crossbowmen exclusively.

((Pff. A Terra Arma rip off with less hordes. Disappointment!))

(I didn't see your sheet before I made mine.  I've now looked at yours at saw that it isn't a desert civilization of Genius Bruisers with surface architecture of a shantytown-Mos Eisley mix so they don't have to expend too much effort rebuilding, dedicated to fighting off mutants that are about thirty times harder to kill than the ones your soldiers have been fighting, and for decades, possibly centuries before yours decided to come out when it was safe, due to their bunker collapsing in upon them, making everything they have now have been fought for tooth and nail.)

[[Terra Arma sends missionaries and traders to The Marauders. Offer metal for whatever they can give. Our religion should be very compatible with your beliefs, the missionaries would like to set up churches in return for some free metal.]]

(If they survive the trek) the traders and missionaries are met outside of a town that appears to have been hastily constructed town.  If they had been able to get closer to the town, they would note that appearances would have been deceiving, as all the buildings that appeared to be within stages of collapse were reinforced to withstand great trauma.  They did not, however, get close enough to view this, before a group came out from the place and said to them, "Quid hacer ḱe pengin?"

Hang on a minute that's not right at all. Zanzetkuken gets all of that, yet the rest of us are stuck with the standard medieval fare? That's not right at all :|

(I took as a consequence of having such good technology and infrastructure that I am under attack near constantly by mutants that outclass yours by a 30 to 1 margin, and continually scale up in power as more and more technology is researched, as well as not having access to the main bunker any longer.  And, in terms of weapons, I am on a similar scale to you in terms of what I have, just having a better metals (though hard to get, due to location), and having them augmented by various found technology that is very rare and only used in the most dangerous of circumstances.)

((It is all of that. You just didn't read through the lines well enough.  :-\))

------------------

((I think the Armed Priests can survive just as well as your guys can. Especially when they bring a caravan.))

Noticing the fact that you speak a different language that absolutely everybody else on the planet (I guess all that advancement didn't help you with communications), the traders and missionaries turn to charade-like communications. The trader points with his thumb to the caravan filled with metals, then taking the but of his spear, draws a symbol of two hands trading in the desert sand. Then one of the missionaries walks up, drawing a picture of a single hand filled with a metal bar in it next to a crude sketch of a church.

I don't believe that they'd be able to be like that, given how genetics and such work. And furthermore, you wouldn't even have the capability to research due to every bit of manpower needed to repulse those sorts of raids if they're that pressing. So you'd more have an embittered, paranoid society rather than one that has all this technology. Even the better metals is somewhat bullshit due to the game rules :|

They could've got all the technology while they were still safe in the bunker. Can't say much on the home-grown metal front though.
