  • Introducing the Giant Bee!

    large.57e1e78f6ff5f_Dossier_GiantBee(1).

    Common Name: Giant Bee
    Species: Apis Lithohermaea
    Time: Middle Miocene
    Diet: Floravore
    Temperament: Territorial

    Wild

    In the wild, Apis Lithohermaea Drones never stray far from their nests, which they build high in the Island’s Redwood trees or on rocky cliffsides. Apis Drones can be seen swarming around the nest in groups, but to get a look at the Queen Apis, one would need to crack open the nest itself. Speaking from experience, this is not a pleasant task, as the untameable Apis Drones are quite territorial. I probably should have that one coming, in hindsight. Take caution: Apis stings will significantly weaken any creature which suffers them, and because its stinger is not barbed, Apis can sting multiple times without its stinger being ripped away.

    Domesticated

    A tamed Apis Queen will lay new drone eggs, and construct a nest that survivors can farm for honey, so long as they remember to wear specialised bee-keeping gear. Said honey is not only sweet and delicious, but laced with scents that land mammals find irresistible. Many hunters use it to bait their traps. Apis Drones will also follow their Queen into battle, so they can be used for self-defence in a pinch.

    So excited for the bee as I have always wanted honey to go with the berries. It could get very interesting in game with these bees.

    Would the drones of the queen become tamed when the queen is? Cause an instant army would be pretty cool

    OH MY GOD...Something I can run away from while screaming like a little girl! I am deathly allergic to bees in real life to explain that lol. While I am a bit phobic of bees I am also glad to see them coming into the game. It has been one of the biggest requests.

    Wait... So if bees have a queen... Why are there no ant queens yet? It says in their dossier that there might be a queen variation.

    Are these going to be in scorched earth? Like the moth or jugbug?

    Does Scorched Earth have Redwood Trees. No. Therefore you have your answer.
