Description


Millennia earlier, the threat of archotech war machines, pirates, and awry bio-organic weapons arose. Nara an Interstellar Industries Complex initiated the project of semi-automated war-machines, which aimed at creating a legion of war-machines with low technology and maintenance requirements to aid humans in all galaxies in the war against all those threats.

It was a quite successful project, and as countless fleets of unknown generations of ships marched toward the borders of human civilization, the production technology of these weapons also spread in the edge world... until today.

Introduction
This is a large-scale mod that was created around the cyberpunk theme of the 1990s. It has a lot of content, including heavy metallic weapons, industrial-tactical robots, and bio-mech bionic, so I don’t intend to teach you how to play it. You experience the story you want to play with the new choices! I believe you will find the joy you want.

Content

A new Scenario
A standalone technology tree
An Ideology style pack
A well-prepared interstellar colonization company
A royalty Title system based on military organization
A cargo load of heavy weapons and more than 20 types of military-industrial-style killing machines.
Mechanoids that have customizable weapons.
Cheap but costly bionic
lots of new clothes
CE compatibility

Try it for yourself, I guarantee it's worth a try.

Author’s words
This is my fourth year modding in the Rimworld community, also my first year of studying for a master's degree after college. I apologize to everyone who has been waiting for this mod for a long time (it’s been a while). Making such a big project is well-challenged.

DMS is a response that condenses my experience and understanding of countless works to the world and those works and creators who have profoundly affected my life.
Completing this project, which included my understanding of Rimworld art and those coolish Science Fiction styles, is also the realization of my dream of creating cool mecha works since I was a child.
Therefore, it is quite a torment in terms of technology, time, development enthusiasm, and progress management.
From the beginning of the project to the release, it spanned two game versions. Countless setbacks and subversions made me doubt my motivation to continue doing it more than once and questioned whether my work and abilities met expectations...

But this has all passed, and I have reached a reconciliation between my heavy academic workload and my pursuit of excellence. It was unanimously decided to release the mod before the end of 2023. which is today.
Although there may still be some minor problems, anyway still hope you enjoy it. _AOBA 2023/12/25

汇报一个issue:10月27日更新的半自动弹药生产机中不包含12号径霰弹,10号径霰弹以及23x75mmR霰弹等弹药的配方,请问是有意这样设计的还是殖民舰队在流转科技的过程中不慎发生了遗失?
