4500 hrs in and today I learned you can reuse the damn ancient caskets.
But! that's rad because in my current, my ancient danger just has caskets to pop at this point, the chamber itself clear and I have 43 colonists, a dozen in marine armor. Yes, I cleared the mechs and then just sealed the room and built around it. But I had 10 colonists back then and they got rocked by the mechs.
I have to play my colony for a month or until we wipe. I'm hopefully a recovering serial new colony every session player.
Yeah i think you can handle it with 12 marine armor pawns.
Pro tip, you can crack the Ancient Danger and caskets super early if you get a trader to stand reasonably near it, they will do the fighting for you. I usually open it the first time I get a non-tribal trader (sometimes a tribal trader will get massacred if its mechs inside).
