Mod «Vanilla Factions Expanded - Insectoids 2» for Rimworld (v1.5)

A successor to a very popular Vanilla Factions Expanded - Insectoids, VFE-Insectoids 2 builds up on what made the original mod great. Whilst our focus was on changing the scope of the mod to include only Insectoid-related things and mechanics, this new version features several very extensive and new systems that will add a lot of depth to your interactions with the Insectoid hive.

Get ready for the "Vanilla Factions Expanded - Insectoids 2" and experience a proper expansion of the insectoid theme in the game. Here’s what you can look forward to:

- Summon and Battle New Bosses: Get ready to face off against new and formidable insectoid bosses. Research and build thumpers to summon these bosses and test your combat skills!
- Build and Manage Your Hive: Ever wanted to run your own insectoid hive? Now you can! Harvest resources, breed new types of insectoids, and create a bustling hub of activity. Hivetech offers unusual solutions to some of the game’s problems!
- New Structures and Defenses: From unique walls that only your insectoids can build to defensive structures that protect your colony, this mod introduces a variety of innovative constructions to enhance your gameplay.
- Dynamic Combat Challenges: Prepare for unexpected raids and battles. The mod changes how insectoid attacks unfold, making each encounter a unique challenge.
- Engaging Quests and World Events: Participate in new quests and world events that revolve around the insectoid infestation. Whether defending against a swarm or initiating one, there's never a dull moment.
- Research and Innovation: Unlock new technologies and discover the secrets of the insectoids through dedicated research projects, enhancing your gameplay and giving you the edge in survival.

With this remaster, we have removed things that didn’t quite fit the theme, including plasma weapons, archotech artifacts and genetic engineering of new insects. Where possible, we are reintroducing these mechanics in other mods.

Requires:

• Infested chunks can no longer be deconstructed and no longer yield components.
