My bad. Sorry.

It's OK, it was the fog. That damn, damn fog.
Anyway all of this went down from the middle of year four to the middle of the 5th year (Lurk went to deathrest around Decembary 6-7).
That was when the Yttakin raid happened
The survivor was at first to be executed, but the colony was still struggling, and so he was recruited. The Ediots have no love for the furries, but the fields need
harvesting. You can choose a name if you wish.
After that there was a small mechanoid raid
and then a waster raid, with not a single waster in it
Genies, every single one of them, and each one a sniper, first time I ever saw anything like it. One dead, others released, except one that was recruited. Their weapons were confiscated and given to the Ediots. This was a wake up call for the Commissar: the Ediots, having conquered the animal kingdom (with maybe a certain megafauna being exception) and tribal factions, have relaxed, and started falling behind in the arms race with more advanced groups. The captured M24s replaced the Enfields, and with a lot of unspent .303 ammo, a Bren machinegun was made and assigned to Tim, to be exchanged for something else later.
Commissar Heidi and DIAF got married, and soon she gave a birth, and now little Sugarbombs has a halfbrother, another half-waster.
A transport pod fell and the survivor, a dirtmole, was also recruited.
The colony now has a population of 13, and finally enough hands to respond to growing production demands. The furry, genie, dirtmole and the newborn have no names, so you can choose now.
As for Lurk, while in deathrest, he was weened off his go juice addiction, and his scarless sanguophage gene cured his dementia. However, the psychosis was left uncured, and kept progressing. The Ediots had no idea what will happen when it reaches its final stage. It should kill a normal person, but what about the sanguophages? They are tough, but some things can permakill them, and if this psychosis ccauses brain death, it's goodbye again, with maybe even less chance of ever getting another resurrector serum.
What was needed was a hibernation biochip. Implanting it in the brain should fix any damage.
The Ediots finally went from research to the production phase of the genetics.
And after a whole year in coma, Lurk is finally back, and improved
Now, Lurk has a legendary tier biochip. Let me explain the cost and the "science": awful tier requires one corpse to make a genoframe for a biochip (idealy chickens, because of their monstrous rate of reproduction), poor requires two awful ones to be combined, and so on. Meaning that I have to feed 64 chickens to the grinder to produce one legendary biochip.
And all the Ediots, 13 of 'em, will get at least 3 chips, hibernation one, which will raise the colony productivity through the roof, and these:
Muffalo muscles will increase the weight the Ediots can carry by 35kg, meaning a balistic vest on top of the flak armor, plus another weapon and the ammo for it.
Muffalos skin, adding additional defense (not sure how much yet).
There are also some more... exotic implants. Any volunteers?
That concludes our presentation on Ediot's scientific progress. Now back to bussiness.
The Ediots received a message from a mystical fleshcrafter
and after 4 years, Commissar Heidi finally has both arms again.
And the Ediots reached the beginning of the year 6.

@Tech Noir so we are going to become Space Marines? Awesome! I also want to be milked.

This proves Alex Jones was right about human-animal hybrids.

Lurk with the power of 64 chickens
I'll name the baby Hand Banana since the name is already close and the genie Arabian Sprite. Someone else can name the furry and the dirtmole, or I can get back to you.
Yes! I told you it was only a flesh wound.

@Illuminati actually can't, she's female, didn't notice until I saw her mood was low because Tim rejected her advances.
And one more thing about biochips, I've crafted an awful quality muffalo muscles implant just so you can see the difference. I implanted it on a prisoner
who's been the Ediot's guest since the first year (she got a .303 to her spine and was tied to bed). As you can see, it barely adds anything, but it did fix her spine, and she can finally leave.
The Ediots had an arctic fox manhunter pack followed by a waster raiding party show up, and wiped them out.
all but one
when her buddies went down she proceded to gtfo through the side entrance while being poured upon from every Ediot's barrel without even slowing down. That's when the Ediots realized she's wearing a marine armor, a 2nd tier power armor. "Let her go" said Commissar Heidi, "but do you see now how right I was when I told you we are lagging behind in the arms race?"
The waster was allowed to leave, but she didn't get far
While the armor did protect her neck to toes, she only had a simple steel helmet, and while the shotgun pellets didn't penetrate it, the concussive force did, damaging her brain, which she felt to the fullest when the cheap drug in her system wore off. She was thrown into prison, and stripped of her armor, which Balls claimed for himself.
The colony wealth kept growing, and reached 150K, when the Ediots received an offer
Another toxic fallout
This time however, the Ediots had a full pantry, and could wait it out.
but there was no animal feed, so a caravan with Balls and all the animals was organized, and was sent out of the Nobody Cares, to trade with other settlements and forage in non-polluted areas.
After the caravan had departed, the Ediots faced a tribal raid after rejecting a payment demand
and an epidemic
and then some mechanoids
HE rounds are damn good, if you like repearing your walls all the time
While uranium melee weapons really need a replacement
The caravan was ambushed by... a single genie. Balls beanbagged him and took his lunch
By this time the toxic fallout settled down, and the caravan headed back. The animals managed to filter out most of the crap from their system on the way, unlike the wildlife that stayed back
The empire asked for a favor
and it was accepted, the reward was simply too good to pass up
Tim called Lurk the V word
and the muffalo mamaries were implanted onto a prisoner
another day, another raid
they were all cut down, but one
Sugar was outside of the walls and that last remaining cunt ran her down. Tjhe Ediots didn't burry her, she took Lurk's old place in the freezer, but something better needs to be built to ensure that power outages cause minimum damage.
The scyter survived, along with another one, and was brought into the fort. Because ordinary melee weapons and beanbags can't damage them, so they can be used for practice. And because I am relly bitter and pissed.
Based on year four, you can guess what happened next
There are no riots in Rimworld, but this came close, considering that all these happened nearly simultaneously. There were little grievances that Commissar Heidi neglected to resolve because they weren't really a big deal. But little by little, the pile of discontent grew, and Sugarbomb's death was the molotov that landed on its top.
Anarchy reigned, and the commissar was tempted to abandon the colony and take the Ediots somewhere where they can start anew, and live simpler and more fulfilling lives, away from all this marble and corruption. But mama Heidi didn't raise no quitters.
"There must be something I can give them to ease these trying times for them. Think, Heidi, think!"
But all the narcotics were sold, and go juice was precious and needed
and then it hit him
THE FOOD
Ediot's usual diet are simple meals either common or vegeterian
But a skilled colony chef can prepare lavish feasts
and Heidi had 3 at his disposal: Tim, Lurk, and himself. If he can carefully balance the stick of beanbag shells and the carrot of lavish meals, maybe order can be restored, and unlike year 4, when starvation was one of the huge problems, the pantry was full this time
and it seemed as though it was working
Commissar Heidi could finally take a deep breath and relax
...or could he?
The commissar led a raid on a Yttakin mining site to take those that were afflicted the worst away from the drone, to satisfy ideological demands, and to secure the prisoners.
But the universe wasn't done with him and the Ediots
Nothing like some good ol' fashion justice to raise the spirits
Eeeeeehhh.... but eventually it all went back to normal, and Balls, the worst afflicted, was sent out on a month long caravan, and that plus the stick and carrot were probably the most contributing factor. All in all, the troubles of year 6 were more volatile than that of year 4, but lasted much shorter, and the Ediots reached the start of the year 7.
