Hi Sylvester.
Lol, your first two questions have related answers sinse batteries are the
amo for the laser :D.
With Alien alloy, things are the same as a dark room in terms of where to
find it, ie, battlefields, boreholes and possibly in cities. This does take
a little longer than in A dark room sinse you don't have the builder's
amulet to help you. Make sure to take note of the "unexplored space" listed
on the map, particularly a long way out from the Swamp.
While I found it a longer collection than in A dark room, on the plus side a
bunch of new encounters have been added, particularly sinse you will find
you need to keep visiting dungeons to make sure you have food, durable
weapons and amo, plus there is a little special you can run into to make
combat generally easier, (as a little hint, trading is good, and all
resources in the game are used for something even if it doesn't seem so).
Even though it took a longer time to find all the alien alloy than in a dark
room, I enjoyed that section of a game a lot more in The Ensign sinse there
was much more to explore, though when you do! get to the ending I ran into a
miner bug where I got a blank screen and had to turn vo off and tap it to
proceed, though whether Amir has sinse fixed this I don't know.
Oh, and there are some very cool audio interviews to listen to as well as a
reward, just like a dark room has.
All the best,
Dark.
There is always more to know, more to see, more to learn. The world is vast
and wondrous strange and there are more things benieth the stars than even
the archmaesters of the citadel can dream.

Greetings Dark!
Thanks So Much for the help.
I am getting close to the end, I think, and had a few more questions.
Batteries, what are there purpose?
Also the laser, what ammo does it use?
I have a laser and it will say that it's precentage is fine but that
it is out of ammo.
Lastly Alien Aloy, where do you think the best place is to attain it?
you cant trade for it like in a dark room so I am thinking I will be
wandering around collecting it in small portions.
Well Thanks once again for the help, I am really enjoying this game.
Take Care! Sly

Hi Sylvester.
glad your getting into the Ensign.
the percentage is the weapon's durability. So long as it is greater than
zero the weapon will do it's normal damage, however each time you use it
the
percentage will go down. When it hits zero, all weapons (even rifles and
laser guns), will do only 1 damage, that is the point you have to replace
them.
At the swamp you can store items, (there is an option), this is
particularly
useful at the start of the game for making sure you always have a steel
sword in reserve and for storing resources like flesh, teeth and eyes
(who's
use you will find out later).
You can also talk to the general, which lets you view several cutscenes
about the wanderer invasion, and also lets you do something special after
one particular event, though I won't say anymore of that but let you
discover it yourself.
One thing I do like about The Ensign is because weapons have a
durability,
you keep needing to visit dungeons, also there are a lot more different
events and encounters even in lower level dungeons like Houses, which
keep
the game interesting even when you have the convoy, just remember, you
still
need to eat and drink, and that even though you might be carrying an
arsenal of weapons you aren't invincible, especially if you don't
replenish
your weapons (I nearly lost out myself when playing at four in the
morning
an forgetting to go and gather supplies).
Enjoy the ending!
All the best,
Dark.

Greetings Gamers!
had a few qquestions for those playing The Ensign game.
Not sure any thing I will ask will go into spoiler teratory but just
in case you have been warned.
First can you store collected items back at the Swamp?or better yet
what is the swamps purpose?
I have a convoy now so have tons of space, but
I have 3 Knives, and 2 steel swords I am holding on to but wondered
do I need to hold on to more than one weapon? Is there any thing to
be gained by doing this?
Also I wondered about the percentage that is given to the weapons, I
noticed of course the higher the more damage it does but how do you
build it back up?
I am on a roll and think I am getting close to finding, well I better
leave it at that, don't want to spoil any elements of the game for any
one.
Well Thanks for reading. Sly
