Dead Fishing VillageReport
English：Dead Fishing Village · Locations
An empty village on the acid-rain coast of Cheaters Run, occupied by more than thirty old police robots still on duty. They shout "POLICE!" and attack on sight, and hitting one building wakes the entire village.
The Dead Fishing Village is an abandoned settlement in Cheaters Run. The "dead" is not decoration — the original inhabitants are long gone, and what lives here now is more than thirty malfunctioning Skeletons.
They belong to the Old Machines faction, and they will attempt to "arrest" anyone who enters, charging in while shouting:
POLICE!
One house means all of them
The village consists of two Watchtowers and four Old Storm Houses, every one of them packed with robots.
The rule to remember here is this: attack any one of them and every other building sends reinforcements. There is no clearing this place a house at a time — the moment you swing, it is thirty against you.
What the guards are
ErrorCode 0x000000 are defective Skeletons of the Soldierbot subrace. Their stats sit around 27 to 43, they wear Shoddy armour (5% chance of Standard) and carry Short-Cleavers manufactured by "Unknown" and "Ancient".
They have two properties that make them a nuisance:
- They prioritise attacking the player's faction over any other squad in the area.
- Their AI package contains a fast-travel pursuit instruction. The result: even with a whole squad crippled or unconscious, they can still cross the map after you at extreme speed. Open the map and zoom in and you can watch the blips move; by the time they load in, they will be standing there in front of you, still broken-legged.
Weather
Cheaters Run gets acid rain. Before going in, either bring acid protection or bring enough materials to throw up a tent and wait a shower out.
Loot
Mostly basic materials:
Common — Iron Plates, Electrical Components, Steel Bars, Copper, Fuel, Books, Building Materials, Fabrics

A faction with no members
In the game data, this village is owned by a faction called "Fisher". The interesting part: no character in the game belongs to it.
An empty village registered to a faction nobody is in, garrisoned by police robots still executing a thousand-year-old order. The whole story of this place is written in that configuration, without a single line of dialogue.
What it means for the player
The Dead Fishing Village is not a beginner's stop, but it is one of the few targets on Cheaters Run with a clear payoff: the parts on thirty-odd robots plus everything in the houses adds up to a serious materials haul.
There is only one way to do it — be ready to finish it in one go. Filtering in slowly, or clearing one building and pulling back, does not work here.
