Assemble a crew of various skills and venture out into Vidora鈥檚 wilderness in search of precious minerals. Your way of transport is AsmiCorp鈥檚 finest mining rig, the Series 61 train. A fully customizable, fast and enduring machine with capabilities to house crew, refine the minerals you mine and get you across Vidora鈥檚 landscape efficiently.
Your Crew
Starting out you have to preform most tasks yourself and on your own, this will not last long as you grow your crew. Crew members can be recruited to your train from crew vendors and be assigned specific roles such as Miners, Hunters, Armsman and others. You strategically place and command your crew to increase efficiency and survivability.Your Train
With the modular design of AsmiCorp鈥檚 Series 61 mining rig, you are in control of the carts that it has, the equipment on board, increasing your housing space to house the crew you hire and ensuring that there is enough power to run everything. Keep in mind rookie, to build extra carts and onboard equipment you desire will require you to have the sufficient funds, materials and reputation to do so.Expeditions
Each expedition outside the safety of your mining rig, requires planning and strategizing. This will not only ensure you deliver what you gather, mine and harvest back to your rig successfully but also increase the chances of you and your crew making it back safely, as Vidora and her creatures are known to punish unexperienced miners and their mistakes.Majority of Vidora鈥檚 creatures rely highly on their sense of hearing. Making any sudden noises in her wilderness will definitely anger the creatures that surround you thus making preforming loud tasks like mining and shooting weapons very dangerous and require the suitable equipment, fire power and planning to complete your expeditions and return safely.
Mining
As an AsmiCorp miner, your main goal is to mine the minerals above and beneath Vidora鈥檚 surface. Along your expeditions, you will come across many valuable and interesting minerals, the most important being Asmegite. In order to extract these minerals, you will be required to use the many unique tools and equipment that AsmiCorp has provided you with or you have crafted. But be warned, harvesting Vidora鈥檚 precious minerals angers her and her creatures, so mining expeditions will not be easy or safe.Gameplay Features
