If you need to look up stuff about the forever winter trieze go to wiki.gg forever winter it describes the lore well

Biovertists report and analysis
The trade with the agri-baron has gone well she drove a hard bargain
But we got the samples
Sample one
It is a small black thing that grows in clumps and is rich in protein. Old records tell us they are called 'beans' ( writers note funny name the small black things') the taste is good but side effects include bowl flatulence
Testing continues for more side effects

Sample two yellow thing that is large the sample is covered by a textile luke substance guarding yellow small things the rest of the sample 2 is inedible ( writers note 'sample 2 tastes well multiple experiments are running on samples from brewing of alcohol to making fabrics from outer shell experiments from consumption show that only the yellow bits are edible not the textile like substance or core
Also there is a massive debate on what sample two is actually called as the old records for it had two names corn and maize ') nutrient count high in carbs

Sample 3 multicolor roundish thing it is sweet the name for it is unknown description is is roundish and had a core in the middle (purpose unknown) and is very delicious ( authors note multiple fights have broken out over this substance and taste is delicious we must get more samples)

Sample 4 tall green thing analysis of it show very high amounts of sugar ( this sample along with sample 2 has been very successful in the scop trials we must get more of it. Ps alcohol experiments from sample 4 show good results must get more of tall green things)
Samples from frozen swamp show great promise negotions with the must continue

Authors note I made this snippet as best as I can from the viewpoint of a denizen of the forever winter
As you can see our biotester does not know the names of the crops because they are lost due to the war and is experimenting with them
Bad grammar is intentional because Grammer rules got destroyed in the apocalypse
Sample 3 is mango sample 4 is sugar cane

Thank you for putting my snippet in the extras
Love your work on this story!

Intelligence extraction

Eurasian ministry of state security
Los Angeles combat zone anomalies report
anomalous activity was first reported when costal sector formally known as Venice Beach was transformed into green tropical beach
The 1957th cyborg regiment under Sergent Tanaka was sent to investigate orders to extract samples and scout area and if need be destroy the jungle
Note zaikatsu biomedical shows keen interest in the organic compounds of jungle anomaly

Second anomalous activity was recorded when buildings fell from the atmosphere
The buildings landed on several regiments totaling the casualties of 894 troopers investigations by troops show language and items similar to goods from Myanmar autonomous province

Third anomaly was reported when combat zone know as frozen swamp growing food items zaikatsu biomedical has requested samples and orders for scorched earth tactics to prevent Europans from getting food samples

Fourth anomaly was reported when excess water appeared along with forest 2877th cyborg regiment have been sent to investigate area

Fifth anomaly an wave of energy known by civilians as the godwave have recorded by satellites has went around the globe restoring infrastructure thus putting industrial capacity at 100 percent as reported by zaikatsu biomedical, XAVAX GROUP and Hypax group.

I send this recommendation that the anomalies of the Los Angeles combat zone must be studied as the godwave anomaly increased the chance of victory by 43 percent and lobbying from the corporations for capture and study of the anomaly has begun.

This is Eurasian ministry of state security colonel song seo-jun signing off

Hoped you liked my snippit of the Eurasians reacting to this and all the corporations are names from the forever winter wiki

Question, given that the Godwave repairs all industry... would that not also restore the governing AI attached to said industry?

Specifically, the Night Shift. The automated municipal repair system that has been tangling Lost Angel's for who knows how long into a nonsensical morass of pipe and concrete.

If that's fixed, if they're ALL fixed... the planets going to start repairing itself. Potentially including whatever systems were designed to manage the environment itself. Weather control, agriculture, etc.


Of more concern... all the various mad AI war gods now have access to an infinite supply of fissiles. We are on a time limit before the nukes start flying.

I can actually use this as an excuse to include elements from the recent update.

Maybe I can combine some unused ideas I got from ChatGPT and use that for the "R" Cult somehow...

The Night Shift? Near as I can tell, they don't rebuild things, just sweep the battlefields every night for the dead and dying. Also, I don't know about municipal repair, I just wrote that every industrial assembly line was not only repaired, but also experienced an inexplicable 800% increase in manufacturing capacity.

As for the fissiles... you're referring to restored nuclear power plants? I'm fairly certain that certain Europan command sector HQs now involve secret breeder reactors kept underground. It's still MAD, as far as I'm concerned.

Nice see you work on this story it's awesome!!!

Watch this guy killpo1's channel it's good for worldbuilding and will help with writing the story
the video is in english French words are appearing for some reason?

The lore apparently isn't in the wiki for some reason, but the early trailers explained that the Night Shift is the Scav term for malfunctioning construction and repair bots that are attempting to repair the infrastructure of Lost Angels even as the war above tears it to ribbons.

They are however badly malfunctioning, and it's why so many maps are full of wierd monuments and warped buildings.

The comparison to a Factorio Roboport system is obvious I think.



As for fissiles, the core of the Forever Winter war is a resource conflict. Everyone is out of just about everything.

The Godwave completely restored resource deposits, oil, copper, lithium, and crucially, uranium. Easily accessible, and now refined at extreme speeds and assembled into new warheads just as quickly.

So whatever and whoever is left at the 'top' of the meganations can now rebuild their arsenal incredibly quickly. MAD has already come and gone, the planet is already effectively destroyed. Now all that's left is the endless war, and pursuit of victory at any cost.

Hmm. Considering that Fun Dog runs the Forever Winter wiki, they either forgot that part, changed it or retconned it.

The MAD part isn't how many robots they can build to replace their heavy weapons units, but how much personnel the AIs are willing to sacrifice. That's the numbers game to them, no matter how ready they are to start lobbing nukes again.

Plus, unless something like the Godwave is rolled again, the only thing that's permanent about that roll was the increased effectiveness and restored industry and related infrastructure. The resources will run out again eventually. But for my protag and his little band, escaping has become even more of a priority.

Thanks for pointing that out. I'll make a note of it in the next chapter.

Euruskan reaction
Anomaly report
Algerine occupation zone Maghreb sector 2099 dec 31 Maghreb city 89 (city formerly known as oran)
Soldier interrogation subject dmitiri Ivan yezhov Africa corps rank corporal

Interrogator peter batov
Interrogator batov: Soldier when did the anomaly happen and what was your mission

Soldier yezhov: we were on a conscription mission recruiting locals then the anomaly happened

Batov: what was the anomaly like?

Yezhov: it was a wave of energy like a bright flash we were near this old factory it was ruined been like that for decades then it happened

Batov: what soldier?


Yezhov: the factory it was restored then it shot at us

Batov: why did the factory shoot at you

Yezhov: it had automated turrets lots of them it decimated my unit but it did not target the conscripts.

Batov: why is that?

Yezhov: most likely it saw us as the more dangerous target

batov: then what happened?

Yezhov: as the sole remaining member of my unit I decided the information about this anomaly was more important so I retreated to report this to high command.

Batov: you are not the only one reports from around the globe says that the anomaly which the civillian population are calling the godwave happened everywhere. You are now dismissed soldier.

Yezhov: thank you sir!

Euruskan security bureu Intelligence high command eyes only

peter Batov's report this anomalous activity has restored many site of interest once thought destroyed to become effective we request high command for resources to study the effects of the anomaly on the Maghreb sector
