Khans working? Mining? Raiders doing honest work? We cant have that. So I came up with an idea.
We trade gear for minerals with the new recruits. I would like to keep it to only our new recruits so the other factions dont pick this up and offer better deals then us. We make a tent near gecko and when it's say 200 ore in there we dump off some gear in return, the new recruits will die and want more gear and on the cycle goes.
Ive been to cave hq several times and never seen anyone, seems like they abandoned the place. I suggest we put radios with their own channel both in the cave and the tent to keep in touch with them and appoint overseers to instruct them and drop off gear. I also suggest we just kick everyone in the cave hq out and bring in fresh ones that are updated from the start and keep in touch with them.
This is also a general discussion thread about how to manage the new recruits. I would prefer to bring in real life friends to minimize the risk of baserape. Given the fact that we invented the phenomenon we've got all reason to be paranoid.

One of the reasons we have the cave base is so that we don't have to worry about "base rape" as there isn't anything of value. We haven't really had many new recruits as we have been busy training up the returning old members. I like the idea that we give some kind of incentive but to be honest any recruits should be rewarding us for giving them the privilege of being a recruit in our faction.
On another note I don't like having to many recruits because then we take the risk of becoming a bigger faction with scrub members, our reputation is everything. We have to be actively recruiting but at the same time be selective, we want only true raiders who have the lust for pillage.
I do think that if a new recruit doesn't put the work in or isn't active for a long period of time that they should be removed.

Its not a bad idea, I've tried something similar myself but the only problem is noobs can be difficult to motivate. Most prefer to hang around the hub talking shit and hoping for a handout.

My idea of a worst nightmare is to log into hub and see Khans asking for supplies and or chatting about alliances. Most of the larger factions are a complete joke. |

Yeah its a small step from doing that to being parked there permanently. Resources aren't that much of an issue, I rarely have to pick up a hammer, unless I'm seliing it. Private mines aren't what they used to be but still very profitable. What we need more than resources is decent fighters, with strong enough crews we will be taking more gear than we could ever possibly use. Why use our own resources? |

Yeah but we still need a steady supply of ammo to kill other players and get the gear. Plus were gonna level up better builds. This is now achieved thanks to Doctor Mengeles newest operation, the concentration camp of Axwitz right beside the Gecko mine. HQ minerals are flowing in and we got around 10k 223 now. Ive done some gear drops to motivate them but it seems to be working well. |

Nice work. I'm not saying resources/supplies aren't important, just getting them isn't really a problem and we will take better gear than we can make when we are slaughtering the bigger factions en masse.

We Pagans have launched the ARBEIT MACHT FREI project in the recruit section.
