Girls With Puppies

Description
En route to finding a new life, a rag-tag group of drifters from various backgrounds happen upon a litter of emaciated runts. They start following the squad, for better or worse...

Girls with Puppies
Inspired by the original Guy with Dog and Freedom Seekers starts, this is my gift to you. The milkshake brings some balance to the sausage fest; an all-girl customised start, complete with pew, hats, and some cute little doggos. Starting pockets arent' very deep; 4000 cats simliar to Freedom Seekers though you get some bonus produce to set up basic farming in Green and Arid locations which coverss most of the map. You also get a decent spread of crappy kit along with a crossbow for your Hive Prince(ss). You will start in the NE sector somewhere in a random (probably recently) ruined town/hamlet where you stumbled upon the puppies who immediately take a shining to you.

Cute Little Dire Bonewolfies
The custom made doggos start off tiny, but may grow into full-fledged, loveable, slobber monsters if cared for well. They are part of what I would call the Ossis Canis Dirus species and they are special, so you shouldn't run into them in the wild. Compared to regular bone wolves, they are a little stronger and somewhat faster on about-face. They also grow into somewhat larger adults after a slightly longer cycle. Nothing too overpowering; they start off pretty weak and tiny, they walk the walk, and bite the bite of regular canines. You will have to be a good parent - feed them the limbs of your enemies (protein is vital for a puppy's growth), bind their wounds when they get hurt (infections can kill), and carry them when they fall (they are positively adorable when sleeping).
Each has a distinct coat so they're easier to tell apart.

Doggos' stat comparison with vanilla if you absolutely must know:
All stats are taken from vanilla boneyard wolf with following changes:
STAT
Boneyard Wolf
GwP Mod
blood
30-300
35-350
strength
50
55
turn rate
66
77
growth cycle
40 days
45 days
scale min
0.35
0.25
scale max
1.5
1.75
• they start small and wiry but get very big if cared for


hunger rate has been tweaked in line with popular mods to make them feel more like pets (vanilla carnivores are meant to be super hungry all the time so they always want to eat you)


Compatibility
For maximum compatibility everything vanilla remains untouched. As such, it is unlikely that this mod will break anything or vice versa. The other side of that double-edged fragment axe means you'll need a patch for things like backpacks on these custom-made bonewolves.

Mod has been updated. See Change Notes for details.

Sounds like a cool setup.

Currently my mod order gives me 9 members per squad with a cap of 90. I know if I modify the current positions that would change. The overhauls are fine. i normally make the first 5 do farming etc inside two buildings. The Soldier and dogs go hunting...

Glad you're able to make it work for your RP.
[h1]Some technical specifics:[/h1]
The only stats set in this mod are those of the Old Soldier (sixth character). If I may hazard a guess; I'd say another mod is raising the stats across the board and then the Old Soldier has her stats altered by my mod. You could also try rearranging the mods in your load order (highlight a mod and use the the arrows on the right of the Mods tab in the launcher) for troubleshooting. Mods at the top are loaded first and "lose" if there is a conflict. The ones at the bottom are loaded last and will overwrite changes made before them (to the same item). If you don't want my mod's stats for the Old Soldier you can try loading mine before the stat boost/race overhaul mod.

At current count 18 pages. Got majority of the mods out now running together to check for bugs. The extra stats don't bother me since I work them how I want in either case. May be the races buffs or overhauls. Still works as advertised.

Thanks for the info, Squirrel. The last one is just the Old Soldier character stolen from the Freedom Seekers start and should have around 20 in her stats as she is a wanted veteran. However, the first five are nothing special and should deffo have nothing above 1. I've tested it and, sure enough, they start with 1 as advertised as can be seen in here: Nobody 1 , Nobody 2 , Nobody 3 , Nobody 4 , and Nobody 5 . Are you running other mods?
Tadwei 7 May, 2018 @ 5:46am 
The first 5 girls all have 50 Athletics and Swimming. 50 Medic, Engineer. 40 Robotics, 60 Science at start. The last one has an average of 20 in skills. None of them are 1 across the board.

@Lexa I said it was inspired by that start but that it is similar to the Freedom Seekers start. If you want a single girl with a (regular) dog, then use the Guy with Dog start and change the character to a female. Simple, really.

In my custom start you start with some food and some resources to start a base of your own, just like the Freedom Seeker start. The description says you found the puppies (presumably starving as their mother isn't around), hence they don't have food.

It is called Girls with Puppies , not Girl with Puppy . Also; a lot [hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.co.za].

but the guy with dog start is only 2 characters, this is 9 characters in total, thats alot more and requires alot more food :/

@Nyu Also, these girls kick ass. :barbarianna::witch::wrynhappy:
