@minty had Heidi gay.
@demonic cured her gayness with Tricocsagaine (TM)
Can't wait for the jealous catfights.

At the end of the year 14. a new mechanoid showed up in a raid
at this exact time another deep drill infestation happened
Lurk was sent with an insanity lance to inflict berserk on the centipedes, and make them fight each other
while Demonic dealt with the bugs
After killing 3 of their own, th machanoids went after the Ediots, and Heidi and Lurk were incapacitated during the defense of the gates. Lurk's monosword was lost in the flames.
Assault rifles with HE ammo can easily dispatch the footsoldiers, but the Ediots were struggling to make a dent in the centipedes. Another solution was tried
and turned out to be more effective
Year 15 started
Demonic had a baby
After that the Ediots accepted several quests from the empire, such as animal control in exchange for some plasteel
and a big construction vanity project
which was temporarily put on hold when a centipede raid appeared
Despite armor and implants giving immunity to beanbags, there are still ways to deal with their outbursts. FBIAgent was placed under arest after going on a rampage and trying to smash the new artillery piece. After it happened again, his hyperaggressive hussar genes were replaced with new ones.
Another meteorite fell into the colony, removing a part of the wall
A mechanoid siege turned up, tank taken out with an insanity lance.
the rest then for some reason chose to demolish the part of the wall right across the MG emplacements
The vanity project was done, and the Ediots were already eyeing the next one
A cluster landed, with a fog generator. Since it does nothing (a fog generator has been active for years now), it was designated as a no go zone and left alone until a more convenient time.
minty was deginified
This was done in a preparation for a raid, which was postponed because Demonic had a nervous breakdown and wandered sadly around the colony. The reason? He hasn't been on a raid in a long time. While this was going on, two things happened simultaneously: an 86 strong impid raid arrived, and a pigskin merchant caravan that the Ediots invited a few days earlier also arrived
The Ediots, as usual, took ap the positions at the fortified main entrance. This was supposed to be a routine imp-moping. The impids however, took the opportunity and rushed through the side entrance door left open by the pigskin caravan.
There were stationary guns covering it, but the Impids set them on fire before they could be used.
The Ediots rushed to defend that side,
and in the ensuing chaos, some of the bullets meant for the impids found the pigs instead
and Demonic was still wandering around in depression, but it didn't matter, one half the impid force suffered enough losses at the hands of the Ediots, and started running...
... straight into mechanoid cluster's proximity activators
halfway through the walls, the other half of the impids noticed and went back outside to attack the cluster...
... with little success
The mechanoids now went for the side entrance to attack the Ediots. Having lost his monosword earlier, Lurk received a warhammer that could inflict EMP, and was placed next to the entrance. ready to strike whatever comes through. And that was the perfect moment when his pyrophobia kicked in, and he broke mentally and wandered off, leaving the Ediots with ranged weapons to struggle with enemy shock troops. This was the moment I started wondering if it's a good time to send at least someone to the escape pods.
Luckily, Demonic finally came to his senses
minty used her flamethrower to a great effect, and enemy scorchers tried the same on her, but the new armor was perfectly insulated. But she was still threatened by the centipedes heavy armament, so an insanity lance was used
Heidi also succumbed to the pyrophobia, but not before succesfully defending the main entrance
By this time, all her flamethrower jellied prometheum was spent, and minty went to snatch the one dropped by the scorchers that Heidi took out. While she was away, Demonic and Tim's second kid defended the side entrance until she came back
minto took out the last of the centipedes, and now only turrets outside were left
Comrade Karl Bawks (yeah I know, should be Bawx) bravely laid down his life drawing the turret fire, but the revolution lives on, now carried by comrade Friedrich Hengels
there were however 3 mech assemblers left, and in time they could produce new footies to feed the turrets ammo and attack the colony. Lurk was sent to take them out, and he did, but one of the remaining turrets killed him (but not permakiled, this time he just ended in a vampiric deathrest coma)
Since Lumi has the tallent to make the animals go berserk, he was sent to use it on a passing thrumbo

The thrumbo strategy didn't work, so the turrets were taken with snipers, and Demonic destroyed the weather controller
Year 15 ended with a yttakin raid not really worth mentioning
And year 16 started with mortar hammering a 91 strong imp raid to fucking bits
and also with a failure of 3 quests, first the huge vanity project, which was started too late, and didn't meet the deadlines
and then by a loss of pet wargs entrusted by the empire to the Ediots. The aforementioned impid raid killed one, which caused the quest to fail, then the others started leaving the map, which placed them between the impids and Ediots, in the line of fire. Their death caused the Empire to go hostile, but the Ediots sent prisoners and other forms of bribe to smooth things out
another drill infestation, another bugstomping
another huge vanity project undertaken for the awesome prize of 3 resurrector serums
and the barracks inventory gained an addition in the form of a harpsicord made by minty
on the same day, a crypt infestation happened
and triggered an incendiary IED palced there, setting the bugs on fire. But they already colapsed a part of the wall before the smoke could suffocate them and poured out
where Lurk and Demonic and the Tim clan took care of them
a week later a sky lantern festival was held, raising the spirits of the colonists
An irrelewant cluster, solved with mortars
By doing favors for the Empire, Ediots have gained enough honor to have an imperial rank bestowed upon one of their own, and that was the FBIAgent. The bestower arrived, accompanied by a personal guard
Since a ceremony of bestowing such a high rank (praetor) can't be held just anywhere, a luxurious throne room was built
And at last an Ediot became an imperial sanctioned psycaster
At the end of the year 16, about 160+ shotgunners appeared,
and were treated to a first taste of Ediots new heavy armament: 105mm howitzer
about 144 made it to the gates, where they were treated to bullets and flames
still, so many of them, it took until evening hours to get rid of them all

Ediot
At the start of the year 17, the Ediots were doing dirty work for the Empire
while they were away, th Yttakin landed in their back yard, and were met by the remaining colonists
They were defeated after a short firefight, and thrown into the prison. To stop the fire from destroying the escape pods, two of the colonists were forced to go against the faith, and extinguish the fire.
After the other Ediots returned from a business trip, one of the captured prisoners was executed to celebrate
The vanity project was finally finished and the payment of resurrector serums arrived
One of the prisoners went berserk due to substance withdrawal, and attacked the others. A colonist with beanbag ammo was sent to put him under control. Unfortunately, that was when minty walked into the holding cell and... overreacted.
Four of the prisoners died in fire, which was eventually extinguished with firefoam, which didn't trigger any religious depression. A substantial reserve of firefoam granades was produced and distributed among the colonists immediately after that.
After that, there were some irrelevant clusters, handled by mortars
but nothing interesting until the wastes showed up to breach the walls
The Ediots were positioned around the area that was being breached
and minty was sent to reduce their numbers
but one of them had firefoam
but they did abandon that side to try elswhere
without success
Their bodies barely stopped burning when the scythers appeared. The holes in the walls were hastily plugged
and the mortars were fired
they overwhelmed the machingunners, but were stopped by the melee infantry
two days later the bugs resurfaced, triggerd the IED, and turnee the crypt into a crematorium
but the temperature soon rose to a 1000C,
and the chicken sarcophagi also soon caught fire. The wall was torn down, and the firefoam saved the birbs.
Another raid, 95 wasters.
and one of 'em was Lurks grandpa
Wanted to stun him with a shock lance, but, of course
decided to try a new approach, and put only melee at the entrance, with others ready to assist if they can't handle it
worked well, only few managed to break through
and the Ediots ended up with 45 squirming wasters piled up on their entrance, all of them with injuries similar to these. Lurk's grampa was dragged out of the pile. and recovered in prison.
A week later, bunch of cougars surprised an imperial caravan departing from Nobody cares
The Ediots set up a defence in case the situation with pigs and impids repeats, but the Imperials were capable enough
and Lurk treated and rescued their wounded

Year 18 started, it was uneventful, with the founding colonists forming a caravan and leaving on a trading tour around the other settlements
Those left behind faced some minor inconveniences...
... while the caravan paid a visit to the weather controller machine and finally ended the fog around the colony
and a first challenging assault quest, that needed 11 turrets deactivated
They returned at the end of the year to take part in the ceremony in which the highest rank, the count, was awarded to the FBIAgent
Year 19 started
A psychic ship landed, with new super heavy mechanoid as its guard, the diabolus. Three of them, in fact.
This was gonna be one hell of a fight, and either a glourious victory or a glorious defeat.... yeah nah, fuck glory. The Ediots didn't accept quests from the Empire for payment in peanuts. One of the rewards was "rods from God"
After that a series of raids on nearby ancient structures was taken by the restless Ediots, eager to be proactive, and not just sit in their colony waiting for a raid that will end them
But it just couldn't supress the feeling that the time for the final action is here, and that they should start advancing towards their final goal
A mechanoid raid showed up at the start of the summer
and it was time to see if they will fall for the same tactic as the wasters before them. Lurk and Demonic were supplied with the best melee weapons money can buy.
The mechanoids fell.
A location of an ancient genetic facility was discovered, and the Ediot expedition paid it a visit
ans encountered some of its escaped specimens
Samples and technology were taken, but it was obvious that the setup was incomplete, and that more facilities will need locating and looting
After the return of the expedition, a yttakin raid showed up,
and once again the tactic of hacking peoples' legs off, and piling them up was tested with great success.
With the tech loooted from the facility, the Ediots built a beacon that marked the location of another one.
The day when the Ediots will unleash the superbeast upon pentimus 7 was growing closer...
