40K Mechanicus inspired/Transhuman tundra base with a Valkyrie shaped assault troop carrier gravship. Third run. My favourite so far. Mostly just QoL mods with Layers: Capes and Armor for that 40K look. Rough RP rules were no xenogenes, full bionic replacement.

All colonies are welcome here. If you are playing it and like it, so will we.
1. High resolution renders only No screenshots, please use PR (Steam / GitHub) to make renders. Here's tips for the settings. You may upload regular/additional images in the comments

3. Use descriptive titles Think colony/seed name, colonist count, biome, background info etc.. So not: 'I was told to post this here'. 'The others are probably better.' Or without any additional info: 'My current or last colony'
4. Repost? After significant expansion Reposting from /r/RimWorldPorn is allowed without restrictions A new post of your expanded colony is welcome. To prevent spamming the feed, not too often. If you've posted elsewhere or want to: It is ·YOUR· colony, so if you want to (re)post it anywhere else, don't let anyone stop you!
5. Ships must be landed Complete ships may be posted only when landed on a non icy tile. Instruction video
6. No plagiarism If you share someone else's render, give the original builder credit.
7. Self promotion RimWorld related self promotion is allowed, like for Twitch, YouTube etc; in the comments of a render relevant to your work, posted by you, once per colony. Wiki link · · · ·
From a game meta p.o.v. the dog (or any animal or even a depowered turret) behind a door causes collision which means the enemies line up single file and wait patiently to enter the serpentine tunnel instead of bunching up. This video from AdamVsEverything explains it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTJf0-pusxQ
I like using a guard dog in a kennel as it doesn't break my role-play immersion like an unpowered turret would, and lines up with the pre-gunpowder forts I saw in West and South Asia that would have a guard dog kennel at the entrance.
