I'm getting a crash when trying to embark onto a crashsite as well. Attached a save file. To recreate, use the little bird to attempt to land at the crashsite east of the base.

The quick fix I made before works for your crush site. I have also removed both Ratmen and cannys as possible opponents from those new missions and adjusted weights for bandits.
File in attachments.

Crash while trying to drop on new enemy vehicle crashsite
Save is attached
Error message: Race STR_BANDIT_VILLAGE does not have a member at position/rank 14

I added a single ruffian member to STR_BANDIT_VILLAGE list and I could embark on all crush sites you had present in that save.

I tried doing the same to STR_RATMEN members list, but I still get the same crush, no matter how many members I add. I do not understand how this fix works in one case and does not in the other

With this update, yes, more than ever. I always used CONVOY to assault enemy bases.

Sounds like you're missing some research prereqs.

I bet you are missing

Spoiler:

"Solar courier". You get it from "Pogrom" missions. You have to research one

to advance to Boss rank.

I never go Little Bird. It takes a lot of research and the earliest you can have it is march. It seems like a lot of wasted effort for a craft that lets you do so little. Very small range. The only things you can shoot down are courier, other helicopters and if you are super lucky a plane. But those things are chance based. You might end up doing all that effort and not even use it.
So, i was thinking, what would be good enough as a reward early on to pursue Little bird, and I came up with one answer to that question. A "Fan".The only way to get that item which is needed for Large quarters is doing a "Help lock'nar" mission involving ninjas. But those became quite rare thanks to all Nar'locks equivalents. So, what if we made a "Fan" to be a guarantied drop in downed courier mission? This and guarantied courier in April would be enough for me to rush Little Bird, because Large quarters is a critical component of your starting base.
What do you think?

Cats4 life are part of that choice. You do not see them because you have no "communication" research.

There is a craft, Piranha (or maybe it was Shark) jet bike I think. It has ridiculous speed and dodging. Takes only one LT tho. Takes some Jack tokens to obtain.

Cattle prod is researched by the start of the game.

Edit: also you can't produce one (only buy), so no "m" tech.

Depends on what you consider "start of the game".
You get cattle prod research when you research "contact smugglers". And that is more or less 6 months into the game.
So, you might be thinking about stun baton.

Search your special project tab in manufacture for something unfamiliar. Anomaly should stabilize next month from activating it. Definitely not 6 months.

I think that is the reason they were removed.

So I didn't do something to antagonize the governments, they can just raid you normally now?  If so thats pretty rough, both because Its currently tommy's against Gauss rifles, and even if you win its about -1500 points.

I guess the ol SS/Peaseant garrisons just don't cut it anymore

I have a precise answer now. It's BOSS rank that triggers it. You need "Family ties" to end those raids.

Those raids were added in this version as a way to spice things up a bit. They can happen in any base. When I played on John Silver first raid happened in January 2602. I was constantly raided every single month since that.

Just came back to this after a while and any enemies who are bleeding or over stunned die automatically now when the mission ends. Is this an intended feature or is my game borked?

No. I bet they are just on the edge. Even tho mission ends, game processes one last turn for the enemy.

Hi guys! This is a new playthrough using the N5 update, strangely enough I am, apparently, to able to unlock standard decentcraft like shadowbat, worm, fortuna, and so on, It is a fresh play so no save porting. Could you help me find out what I'm missing, because it's the second year, I've got gnomes, nekomimis, orbital missions, and many bounties...seems a little strange.

Here is the savegame if someone can help me out. I'm also playtesting a mod I'm currently developing for an Oni race so maybe some ID conflict may be the culprit?

Thanks!

It's super simple. You are missing "Shadowmasters".

Sorry if this seems like a stupid question, but just to be sure: you haven't sold your radar, right?

No, I did not. The only questionable thing I did was upgrading mid campaign from 5.0.2 to 5.2.1.
There is no save of this. I just edited the needed item in, because I just assumed that something happened that should not have.
