Hive Attack (Southern Hive)

Hive Attack, not to be confused with the Western Hive Variant, is an Event that can trigger if the Player has kidnapped the Queen of the South. It has a 100% chance to trigger if the player has a Base within 50,000 meters of a Southern Hive location, but given that distance is larger than the map of Kenshi and the event ignores No-Go zones, it will trigger anywhere in the map with the same frequency.
Once the conditions have been fulfilled, the Southern Hive will send an assault to the player's base. Depending on if it is the first trigger of the event or if it is a repeat visit, there are different squad make ups.
# The first visit variant is made up of 7 squads, each made up of 8 Droneguards, 1 War Gorillo, and led by a Prince.
# The second and later visits are made up of 6 squads, each made up of 8 Droneguards, 1 War Gorillo, and led by a Prince. With one squad being accompanied by King, though due to a bug this variant of King is a weaker one than the one found at Southern Hive.
When the assault arrives, the War Leader will shout about the queen, then order the attack, attacking gate and characters, and liberating captives. If the assault is defeated, another Hive Attack will trigger in 20-32 hours if it was the first visit, or in 12-24 hours if it was a later visit.
