Community Event: Rim War Campaign Nov 24-29th.
Story:

For many centuries, the ice covered rimworld PPV22 has been inhabited solely by nomadic tribes. Now a powerful megacorporation has hired several elite mercenary units to subjugate the tribes so that they can ruthlessly exploit the planet's natural resources for their own gain.

Get Ready for the First Community Rimwar Campaign. Pick a side and prepare to fight. Your actions will influence the outcome of the war and the fate of this rimworld!

How It Works


Start a New Rimworld Game Using the Following Parameters: (Can be Royalty or Regular)

MODS:

Harmony
Faction Control
Vanilla Apparel Expanded
Rimwar OR Rimwar Threaded

MOD Settings:

Faction Control: If Playing Outlander, only factions should be Civil Outlander and Savage Tribe. If playing tribal, only factions should be Gentle Tribe and Rough Outlander.

Storyteller: Cassandra Classic, Strive to Survive.
Custom Scenario: Choose Either: The War for PPV22 Outlander, or The War for PPV22 Tribe (Available on Steam Workshop)

Each side has its own unique advantages and disadvantages. The Tribal players will have numbers, the Mercs will have technology and are better supplied.

Planet Settings: Slide temperature toward cold two times. (Meaning one away from coldest). Keep the rest of the settings on default.

Reporting Battles and Earning Victory Points (VP).

Starting November 24th at 12:00 AM (Midnight) EST, you can start fighting battles and earning victory points. To report the battle, simply report the combat strength of the enemy you defeated by replying to this thread. For every 100 points of combat strength (rounded down) you defeat, you earn 1 VP for your side. EX: Defeated enemy unit strength 600, will earn your side 6 VP. Please attach either a screenshot of the battle or a short in character narration of the battle.

Reporting will stop on November 29th at 12:00 AM (Midnight) EST

After that I'll total up the VPs forr each side and announce a winner.

Additional Rule: Each player can accumulate up to 5000 VP for their team, but no more. This is a team effort afterall.

Reporting Losses: If your colony is wiped out, please report it. Your side will suffer a -50 VP penalty. Then start a new game and keep playing!

Possible Campaign Outcomes: Based on Difference in VPs. Note: Just because one side gets more VPs, doesnt necessarily mean it will result in victory. If it's close, it will considered a hopeless stalemate.

Major Victory: Tribes.
Major Victory: Outlander Mercs.
Minor Victory: Tribes
Minor Victory: Outlander Mercs

The Megacorporation has hired your mercenary outfit to clear out the hostile tribes in this region to make way for strip mining and massive deforestation. See to it that it gets done quickly.
