Buggos Invasion

Description
Welcome to my crossover mod between Forts and Buggos!
Have you ever wondered how an alien Bug invasion would effect the Forts world of Warfare?
Then enjoy my interpretation of this scenario! :)

NEW SURVIVAL GAMEMODE OUT NOW!
https://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2827938085
Team up with friends to beat hordes of Buggos storming at you!
How many waves can you survive? Player on enemy team uses warthog to get the wave launcher.

This mod includes new tech, devices, weapons and ammo!
Devices:
Nutrient Pustule, the main income in Buggos. It generates metal and energy as a small device that can be spammed in your forts empty space!

Flesh Wall, a huge version of the sandbags with incredible health for its cheap price! It takes reduced damage from Buggos, as they are confused about attacking their own walls. However, the Flesh Walls burn down quickly, so don't let em catch fire!
Both devices need the Starting Hive to be inside of your Fort so they can be build by builder Buggos.

Weapons:
Spore Launcher, a rapit fire anti air powerhouse! Can only hit one target at a time but will stop any enemy Buggo with a single shot! Can also do cheap damage to the enemy fort, but its range is limited.

Hive, will use the new High Seas ammo system to launch Buggos at the enemy that you prepared in your fort! Inspired by the egg-twin upgrade in Buggos, when spawning you will save a bit of the recources you spend for the Buggos.
Thanks to Forts researchers, the hive will equip your Buggos with jetpacks to allow them to fly!
Both weapons need the Starting Hive to be build by builder Buggos.

Ammo:
Swarmer Buggos x10/x100: Cheap Buggos that can be launched at great quantities! Not very powerful, but can cause trouble to enemy Spore Launchers, best way to defeat these Buggos is by using many gunners or flak and using some wood spam to absorb damage. Tech requirement: Starting Hive, to build the ammo.

Defender Buggos x10/x60: Extremely durable Buggo that slowly moves towards the enemy until it can shoot at them with spores! Very good against conventional Anti Air, but they are stopped by Spore Launchers and Firebeams are always great anti air against all Buggos. Defenders attacks can be countered by Flesh Walls and by using energy shields behind the flesh walls to stop the spores! However, the Buggo itself can harm the shield so make sure to use another layer infront of your shields. Tech requirement: Defender Tech

Warrior Buggos x10/x80: Powerful and fast Buggos, like Swarmers except they can survive a couple of hits before dieing. Their weakness is that they give a long reload time to the Hives that shoot em but there is no easy way of stopping them. When they hit the enemy, its gonna hurt! Portals are still an option tho. Requires Warrior Tech.

Boom Slug Buggos x10/x70: They have the highest damage out of all Buggos and can erase even huge forts from existance! Luckily, they don't move very fast and are easy to shoot down. That's why they are very dangerous when paired with defender Buggos as meat shields! Make sure to use anti air against them, because not even portals can stop these terrible bomb creatures. Also be cateful with their ammo. They are already extremely explosive inside of the fort they are stored in. Requires Boom Slug Tech

Swarm Mother x10/x50: Their tech has the longest build time but when you get them on long ranged maps then you have an easy time winning as long as your oponent can't shoot em down real quick. Every 4 seconds, the Swarm Mother will spawn a swarmer. In only 8 seconds air time, A x50 ammo of them has already generated a full x100 Swarmer ammo for free. And the swarm moms themselves also deal good damage when hitting the enemy fort.
Very balanced in power, price and durability. However, not good on short maps and doesn't hurt as much as some other Buggos. Definetly hard countered by Portals, unless you use them to protect Boom Slug Buggos. Requires Swarm Mother Tech

I hope you all enjoy this silly mod and get a liking for Buggos or just appreciate the wacky content. Have an excellent day! <3

This mod is made to celebrate Buggos and introduce it to players of forts. My use of its assets is not to take away from the work that Intrepid Marmots developers and artists have put into their game.
In no way am I making commercial use out of this mod for any products of mine, this is simply fan content created to apprechiate both Buggos and Forts.

If you are part of the Buggos development team and have issues with this being a public mod I would love to talk about the issue and if you still see it as a problem I can set the mod to private.
