I didn't lose, but the total experience after saving the day at the pogrom was like https://youtu.be/FYvbJT_WY9U?t=87

Arguably, first difficulty is more difficult due to the lack of voodoo and the least amount of high ranking enemies to advance research on rare topics.

armor-wise chitin armor is easier to get than aggressor for the same 30 armor, though by the time I faced ninjas I had proper chainmail developed and produced . Still, I was facing more enemies than my whole entourage was, and they were better in one on one situation than my gals. Without even counting suicide bombs, rip a wagon of peasants.

Well, maybe, chitin armor easier to get.
Anyway, I always force my way to chainmail at all cost, then - to Plate mail or Tactical Armor, whichever I can use first.

And the most important moment in the battle with ninjas was getting Reaper Rifle.

Stone Age Arena
Can only wear neanderthal-wear, scraps, rags.
Weapons: stone age only. Bows, javelins, etc.. allowed.

Medieval Arena
Can only wear medieval armor and clothing, chainmails, splintmails, platemail, etc.. Weapons: only fantasy / medieval weapons allowed.

Pirate Arena
Caribbean age pirate wear and weapons only.

I had so much fun on the Doctor.X prison! No weapons allowed, shivs only. Nude or rags, or chains.
Walls: The rich mansion robbery was fantastic, as the thin walls could be easily punched out and my girls just went through everything, moving stuff down, like harvesters.
Harder to do in the X-Prison, with reinforced walls. But my freak gals with 170+ STR could punch through those hardened walls and they let the nudist masses roam the base!
I optimized the Airbus capacity a little bit, so 65 nude gals shoved up at Dr.X's prison (on Superhuman). Imagine that many girls in their birthday suits! :D Screaming and stampeding through everything, smashing furniture and mowing down poor guard nurses and Academy Medics with their fists and boobs! :D :D Viva La Nude Avalanche! :D

No game has this much fun on dozens of different levels of technology. So, how about such "historic time-locked" bases or arenas for all distinct ages that are represented in X-Piratez?  :D

BTW, you're doing great job. Cheers.

Just to get update after Apocalypse or something like that.

-666 points for playing on max difficulty. Not what I expected, but I guess it's par for the course.

Let's see, if I can win regardless.

I tried using Blowpipe Poison Darts today but I found out that they're useless. It's a cool idea to have damage based on Energy, but the damage reduction with the distance was too extreme so all the darts I shot did 0 damage.

I once gave it to one on the most battle hardened Syn. With Stamina over 600, she could take in one shot any non-armored enemy.

I just got 2x 50mm Cannon Parts from a secret door event. Cool, a nice early game weapon to help me out, just need to assemble them, right? Nope, one of the parts was destroyed by the research...
Sometimes I wonder if Dioxine is just trolling me.

Poison dart damage is capped. I do not know exact value but damage starts decreasing above around 200 stamina.
