Part 6: Advanced Strategy – Using Presets for Speedruns

The Kenshi speedrun community (Yes, it exists) relies on specific presets to beat the game (Destroy the Holy Nation or United Cities) in under 3 hours. Feature Title: Character Preset System (Full) Game: Kenshi

• The "Torso" Challenge: Use the "Rock Bottom" preset. Remove your other arm intentionally. Become a rolling torso. Steal a spider's leg. Become a cyber-beast. (This is actually viable).
• The "Flesh only" Run: Holy Nation Son. Recruit 30 farmers. Zerg rush Stack. The presets give you the reputation to walk in. Once inside, drop the reputation and start the revolution.
