This era is one of lands claimed for Hunterkind, built upon the strong models of the Era of Heroes.
In the south-east, Ghostclaw acquisition of another landspan makes the isolated tribe a step away from reaching the interconnected Hunterkind.
Whitemane's effort let him claim more wilderness. More Glacier Drifter.
In the end, the lightning in a miniature glass ziggurath is caught again : it looks like the missing key for Archeon creation was danger. A warring conflict pushing an able Hunter to their uppermost limits.
For now on, your Culture takes the habit of bringing captured Glacier Drifter along in battles, just in case someone have said ability. This result 99 times out of 100 in a gruesome death for the bold Hunter.
However, in the mind of the Whitemane's hunter, the risk is worth it.
The conquest of unclaimed land had a cost : the 1st Archeon's home have been stolen again by rot beasts.
Only a combination of Grassgreen's efforts and the Meat Pillars prevented the corruption to seep deeper in your lands.
Speaking of Grassgreen, this era is bittersweet. They failed to protect their Northern allies. Doing so, they left their West flank exposed.
That was not counting on Jupiter's ploy. Using the Warpway, reinforced with Badback's mercenaries, they cleansed the corruption in a ravine much like their home grounds.
One one claw, it means the Grassgreen tribe is protected by all side from invasion of Chaos Forces. On the other, Jupiter acquired both of the stairways out of the crack.
This is important as the part where the Crack reaches the surface are the only known places where Hunterkind could gather the precious snowrocks, necessary for most Grassgreen construction, now a Jupiter Monopoly.
South, the Badback, using feedback from their fighters, work on creating a bigger, better bow : the Ballistae.
This humongeous bow can already skewer a few hunters. However, its sheer size makes it ill adapted for skirmish or fighting wild packs.
The Siege Weapon is suited for big targets : be it a city or a towering heap of corruption. Moreover, this research capitalized on the recent Chemical breakthrough, empowering munition into proper menaces.
>Ballistae : additional +13 against big target
