About this environment

The Colossal Haven Harvester Rigs stand 40-60 ft tall, built on four massive articulated legs modeled after the Colossus of the Dry Lands. It’s body is a stacked metal structure of slave pens, balconies, cabins, and machinery. Cranes swing overhead, lantern arrays sweep the bog, and the constant thrum of the boilers fills the air. The size of this outpost alone calls for it’s own environment stat block.
to tier down, lower the Difficulty. Tier up, add coordinated lanterns, crossbows, sensitive alarms, and more soldiers moving throughout.
