Manhunter BaseReport
English：Manhunter Base · Locations
The only location the Manhunters control, wedged between the Slave Markets and Slave Farm South. It produces nothing; its job is dragging runaways back. Kill two slavers and the sign over the door changes to the Mercenary Guild's.
Manhunter Base lies in the Hook and serves as the headquarters of the Manhunters — and it is also the only location the faction controls. Their entire footprint on the map is this one dot.
Why it is there
The base produces nothing. Its position is the whole point: it sits close to both the Slave Markets and Slave Farm South. The English wiki's inference is straightforward — this outpost exists to supply both of those facilities with labour and to make sure that nobody who runs gets away with it.
In other words, this is the link in the slavery chain that handles recovery. The slave farm consumes, the slave market trades, and the Manhunter Base chases.
The place contains Manhunters and nothing else — no unique characters at all. You will not recruit anyone here and you will not negotiate anything here. The only thing you take away is loot.
What you can take
The base's generators produce:
The HQ building holds a full spread of supplies, mostly food and drink: Greenfruit, Water Jug, Water, Grog, Sake, Gohan, Cooked Vegetables, Dried Meat, Foodcube, Meatwrap and Dried Fish.
Under the Mercenary Guild
If both the Slave Market Master and Slave Mistress Grace are killed, the Manhunters lose the site and the Mercenary Guild moves in. The overridden version is classified in the data as ruins.
Under new management the place is actually more useful than it was:
- Two unique shops appear — the Mercenary Travel Gear store and the Mercenary Smithy.
- A Mercenary Captain can be found at the barracks.
- Two Swamp Houses and one collapsed Small Shack go up for sale.
- The trade culture does not change with the owner. Although the Empire Southwest trade culture ought to have gone with the override, the location keeps it — meaning goods like Hashish still sell here at the inflated price.
Trivia
- The English wiki closes the article with one unexplained line: there is "a cool squatter" at the base. That is the whole note; the wiki says nothing more about him.
