Shalebridge

Shalebridge this location on the map consist of Broken relay tower, Shalebridge Tunnels and Shalebridge Hills. The latter two are rival ant colonies.

Shalebridge Tunnels

Shalebridge Tunnels is a small cave system that is home to a small, friendly mutated ant colony. The entrance is to the north from the broken relay station located just below the hill and resembles a circular plate or cover surrounded by glowing mushrooms.

When the player enters, the smaller, friendly ants are under attack from larger, more aggressive ants. The larger ants will attack the player and can be killed to protect the colony. The larger ants will not be here if you have already killed the queen in Shalebridge Hill.

There is a dead Ant Researcher in a pool of water near the eggs that has a Big Book of Science on the corpse.

If you inspect a nearby ant eggs sack (only after you kill the Shalebridge Hill Ant Queen?), the option to inject a stimpak is given. There is an Ant Compost Heap with some Ant Nectar in it and it will be replenishing faster upon killing Ant Queen in Shalebridge Hill.

If you kill, and then search, one of the larger ants you will get this message:


 * It appears that these ants are from another ant colony. Perhaps attacking this rival colony would help the forager ants survive.

Shalebridge Hill

This colony is just north of Shalebridge Tunnels. Not much here except Ant Workers, Ant Soldiers and Ant Queen. Funny way how to get rid of her is to try ramain as high as possible and give her 2-3 shots in antenna. She will start attacking her former fellow ants who have numbers on their side, so she will get swarmed and die.

Bug

In queens lair is only minor loot, 10mm Pistol, 10mm ammo, Shotgun shells and 5.56mm ammo. The 5.56mm ammo is bugged however so don't try to pick it up or you will experience crittical error.

Loot outside cave:


 * To East of Shalebridge Tunnel entrance there is an ant clutch w/ the corpse of a raider. Next to the Raider is a copy of D.C. Journal of Internal Medicine.
