A Shriek of Ash and Fire, The Free Country Update 11



UPDATE 11 (approx 110K, 995k+ total- 29th May 2025)

Hi ash-smudged, fearless road warriors,

The latest update, with an extra 110K+ of revving content, totalling over 995K (almost a million!!!), has just dropped for the hard-as-nails HG Forum folks!

Create the largest road fleet in Zthullu, battle against the gangs of the wasteland, defeat a possessed Cold Pact Crawler and forge a new nation, the Free Country. Your band of pirates, the dregs of the ash, possess the grit and ingenuity to rise above their misery and the mistakes of the old world. Even in Zthullu, the toxic, barren, haunted land, those with the will and courage can persevere.

-Added two new testing starts, one for those with oily, engine-delving panache and one for wannabe snake mages starting in New Yerishee. Be advised, these test-starts present you with an unrealistically well-rounded and competent MC.

-Build your fleet to take on all-comers and bring order to the ash.

-Use tactics, diplomacy or sheer force to tame the largest gangs in the wastes.

-Fight the Zthullu Zoomers, a bunch of goblins led by orcs driving a giga-carrier.

-Overcome the Ashland Angels, dray-driving dwarves who’ve carved a town of workshops, roads and turrets from the scrap they’ve found.

-Crush the Bulletlockers, a bunch of carrier-riding humans, led by a demonically possessed nutter commanding a throng of mutants.

-Finally, take on the undead-infested ruin of the Cold Pact Crawler, Pale Lady. Become the Abhidhar and battle the demonic force at the great metal-beast’s core, or salvage her cannons to use against her.

-Found a capital and a new nation, represented on the map in the stats screens.

-Added title music.

In ash and hopelessness, can you create the foundations for a new home?
