Last night in I took another break from the Ashlands and started to try to find the Bog Witch. I read online that she was in a swamp biome, so I started looking for unexplored swamps.

I ended up exploring two locations, fighting two abominations (relatively easy with my gear), several wraiths and a whole mess of draugrs, etc. Alas no bog witch was found.

My fire mead finished brewing during my excursion so I'll probably head back into the Ashlands next time

Tonight in , I paused further exploration of the Ashlands while fermenting some fire resistance potions. I took the opportunity to explore a bit of the Mistlands that I haven't seen before (still find the mountains very annoying to traverse) and shoring up one of the sides of my Ashlands base with earthen walls. I hear these are better than stone at withstanding serious enemy attacks. Planning to do the same on the other side tomorrow.

๐Ÿ•ถ๏ธ A human in armor flying with a jetpack, illustrating a new feature (at v.0.55.2): robots can fly too.

๐Ÿ“š๏ธ Unvanquished is a libre, multi-platform FPS and RTS, with fast and tactical gameplay, oriented towards team-based multiplayer (single player with bots is nevertheless available), opposing humans and alien arachnids. Players choose one of the 2 camps, with each one having a different experience and field of action. The humans have the advantage of long range shooting, the aliens the advantage of speed and stealth. The objective is to destroy the enemy base, to prevent the opposing team from reappearing (on their pods; these can be moved) before the end of the game time. It uses the NetRadiant map editor. A very high quality libre game.
