Madness Combat: Half-Mag

This is a Madness Combat inspired mod that adds a new enemy/ally to the game: The Half-Mag.
It is also the first ever mod I made for a video game!!!!

It also has translation support!

The Half-Mag is a bear sized humanoid that is mass produced and sold by unknown powers to the rimworlds. They are built for combat, boasting incredible resistance to small arms fire and insane strength. Their main selling point is their ability to harness that strength in an explosive dash.

Half-Mags will appear in pirate raids, acting as tanky melee storm-troopers. From the early game, they’ll act as mini-bosses, but from the mid-game on, they’ll be a common threat that will add some variety to most raids.

You can also hire your own Half-Mags from orbital Combat Suppliers! They are fully draftable but won’t do much labor besides hauling. They can also equip weapons(even guns), but their fists are probably better than most early-mid game weapons. Their full potential lies in if you give them something like a Zeus-hammer combined with their dash attack.

Once this mod is installed, a single Half-Mag will come to attack your colony after 10 days. This happens only once and can be disabled in the mod’s settings

This is intended as a way to introduce the enemy, especially to new colonies.

only needs Harmony

This mod should be compatible with most other mods! Let me know if issues arise with mods that you believe should be compatible.
