== Description and Requirements ==
+
== Overview ==
The '''Gnawnian Express Station''' is a location in the [[Varmint Valley]] region requiring a minimum rank of [[Hunter's Title|Lord/Lady]] and the [[Whisker Woods Clearing Map Piece]] to enter. Mice are unable to steal a hunters' supplies in the Gnawnian Express Station.
+
The [[Gnawnian Express Station]] is a location in the [[Varmint Valley]] region requiring a minimum rank of [[Lord|Lord/Lady]] and the [[Whisker Woods Clearing Map Piece]] to enter. Mice are unable to steal a Hunter's supplies in the [[Gnawnian Express Station]].
  
In this location, the Heads-up Display initially shows a timetable of trains about to depart.  Trains have mechanics similar to a [[Tournament]], where members of the same tournament team can ride together on the train and receive a reward for completing the journey. Train names are chosen randomly, with the first word from the list:<br/>
+
[[Law]] weapons are required to capture the mice found in this location.
Blind, Brittle, Bronze, Charred, Coal, Copper, Dawn, Desert, Dusk, Dusty, English, Fast,
 
Fiery, Fiesty, Funky, Garden, Gnawnian, Gold, Grand, Great, Iron, Mean, Mountain, Pony,
 
Quirky, Royal, Scorched, Silver, Soaring, Speedy, Steel, Super, Tiny, Turbo, Twilight, Valley
 
and the second word from the list:<br/>
 
Ace, Albatross, Bullet, Cascade, Cavalier, Continental, Dancer, Deluxe, Diamond, Eagle,
 
Evangeline, Emperor, Express, Guardian, Golem, Hawk, Heart, Hudson, Intercity, Jack, King,
 
Landracer, Lightning, Limited, Line, Monarch, Queen, Sparrow, Storm, Thunder, Zephyr
 
  
Once the time arrives for the train to depart, the mouse population changes through three phases of equal duration, where each phase has an associated [[Weapon]] with extra effectiveness during that phase.  As the train passes through the '''Supply Depot''' ([[Supply Grabber]] trap), '''Raider River''' ([[Bandit Deflector]] trap), and '''Daredevil Canyon''' ([[Engine Doubler]] trap) phases, the Heads-up Display changes according to each phase to track the progress of the train and give hints on which [[Charm]]s to use for attracting the mice that will award the most pointsAny [[Law]] trap will do (especially when the hunter has not collected enough resources to purchase the phase-specific trap).  Note that a hunter must generally click on the Heads-up Display to claim points; merely earning [[Royal Supply Crate]]s, [[Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellent]], and [[Fuel Nugget]]s as loot does not aid the team's score.
+
In the [[Gnawnian Express Station]], Hunters can board trains and defend them as they travel through 3 stages: [[Supply Depot]], [[Raider River]], and [[Daredevil Canyon]].  When not aboard a train, Hunters are in the [[Train Station]].
  
== Shops ==
+
Each stage of the train requires a different strategy and has weapons and charms that provide special effects.  Mice in each section vary and provide specific loot drops required for obtaining the weapons that provide special effects in the [[Gnawnian Express Station]]. Each phase of the train has the same duration, equal to 1/3 of the total '''Trip Time'''. 
These are the shops that can be found in the Claw Shot City:
+
 
*[[Gnawnian Express Station Cheese Shoppe|Cheese Shoppe]]
+
Hunters can earn points by completing certain tasks during each phase of the train.  Rewards given to Hunters are dependant upon the points earned by Hunters and their team and by the collective points earned by all teams aboard a train.
*[[Charm Shoppe#Gnawnian Express Station Charm Shoppe|Charm Shoppe]]
+
 
*[[Trapsmith#Gnawnian Express Station Trapsmith|Trapsmith]]
+
The [[Gnawnian Express Station]] requires more interaction from Hunters than many other locations.  Each phase has specific weapons and charms necessary to take full advantage of the area, requiring Hunters to actively manage these items while aboard a train. Acquiring [[Royal Supply Crate]]s, [[Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellent]], and [[Fuel Nugget]]s as loot does not aid the team's score unless Hunters choose to submit them through the HUD.
 +
 
 +
Because trains use the same scheduling mechanic as [[Tournament]]s, Hunters must form (or join) a team (though they do not need to add any team members) to board trains. Hunters may not be in a [[Tournament]] at the same time they are aboard a train. Hunters may only schedule 1 train at a time. This also means that Hunters are limited to scheduling no more than 1 train and 2 [[Tournaments]] at any time.
 +
 
 +
==Heads-Up Display==
 +
The HUD in the [[Gnawnian Express Station]] changes based on the Hunter's status aboard a train.
 +
 
 +
===[[Train Station]]===
 +
While in the [[Gnawnian Express Station]] but not aboard a train, Hunters can review available train departures and manage scheduled train rides.

===Mice with Special Requirements===
The following mice can only be attracted during the [[Raider River]] phase.  The Automice are the only possible attraction on a [[Trap Check]], and the Raiders are more likely to appear with the correct [[charm]] armed ([[Roof Rack]], [[Door Guard]], or [[Greasy Glob]]); but with the exception of the [[Dangerous Duo]], both subgroups of mice are possible on any other hunt, regardless of charm.
+
*[[M400]] – This mouse will sometimes be available in the [[Gnawnian Express Station]] when Hunters are actively working an [[M400 Hunting Research Assignment]]. It is attracted only to [[Fusion Fondue]] which will not attract any other mice. It drops a wide variety of loot.

The [[Gnawnian Express Station]] with four distinct stages. Hunters must board a train in order to encounter most of the mice found in this location. While aboard the train, Hunters will travel through 3 stages, with each stage providing unique challenges. The fourth stage is the [[Train Station]], where Hunters are located in the [[Gnawnian Express Station]] when not aboard a train.

===Daredevil Canyon===
+
Because the [[Gnawnian Express Station]] trains use the [[Tournament]] scheduling system to function, Hunters will need to join or create a [[Hunting Team]] if they wish to board a train. It is not required to have additional team members to join a train. Unlike [[Tournaments]], hunting on a train in the [[Gnawnian Express Station]] does not use the '''tournament horn''', so hunting occurs just as it would normally. This means that Hunters can take non-team members on hunts and may be taken on hunts be friends.
The following mice can only be attracted during the [[Daredevil Canyon]] phase, although some of the mice are only attracted when the correct [[charm]] is armed ([[Dusty Coal]], [[Black Powder]], or [[Magmatic Crystal]]).
 
  
{| border="1" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" style="margin:0 20px; font-size:90%; text-align:center; border-collapse:collapse;" class="wikitable sortable"
+
Trains run according to a schedule, and each train has its own name, duration and maximum capacity. A [[Hunting Team]] can have up to 5 members aboard a single train. There is a limit of 100 teams participating on a train, so it is possible for trains to reach the team cap of 100 without reaching the passenger cap of 500.

==Hunting Strategy ==
+
The community Points goal is determined at the rate of 2 points per hour per registered hunter (so a train holding 75 hunters for 24 hours has a target of 3600 points).  Once the community goal is set, then each team goal is determined by the number of teams registered.<br/>
While hunting in the Gnawnian Express Station, a hunter may board a train, if the hunter is a member of a [[Hunting Team]]. Trains run according to a schedule, and each train has its own name, duration and maximum capacity. A [[Hunting Team|team]] can have up to 5 members aboard a single train.
+
Example: If the community goal is 3600 and there are 50 teams registered, then each team is responsible for 72 points towards the community goal, regardless of how many Hunters from the team riding the train.
  
Hunting on a train is similar to doing a tournament, apart from the fact that it is collaborative rather than competitive, and the fact that there is no tournament horn, so that a hunter can be brought along for a friend's hunt even if the friend is not on the train.  The goal is to collect a target amount of Train Points throughout the journey, and hunters will be awarded loot according to both their own team's performance as well as the performances of all the teams combined.  The community goal is determined by the rate of 2 points per hour per registered hunter (so a train holding 75 hunters for 24 hours has a target of 3600 points). There is a limit of 100 teams participating on a train (for example, if a 24 hour train holds 150 passengers, but filled up to 100 teams with only 135 players, the goal is 6480, not 7200).  Once the community goal is set, then each team goal is determined by the number of teams registered (if the community goal is 3600 and there are 50 teams registered, then each team is responsible for 72 points towards the community goal, regardless of whether there is 1 or 5 players from the team riding the train).
+
A train journey has three phases and each requires a unique hunting strategy, and has a different mix of mice. Each phase will take 1/3 of the total '''Trip Time'''.
  
There is an interesting effect from how the points are assigned - if every team participating has a full component of 5 players, then fewer teams can register for the train, and the team's goal will be higher than if only one or two hunters per team register but get more teams involvedOn the other hand, meeting the team goal requires less effort from each team member if multiple teammates are on the same train, in part because the progress towards higher-point accomplishments are shared across the team.
+
===Train Station===
 +
Hunters are located here when not aboard a train.  The HUD can be used to board a train.  Hunters can only schedule up to 1 train ride at a time, this also means that Hunters are limited to scheduling no more than 1 train and 2 [[Tournaments]] at any time.
  
===Hunting on a Train===
+
Once a train leaves the station, the first leg of its journey is through the [[Supply Depot]].
A train journey has three phases, namely the Supply Depot, the Raider River and the Daredevil Canyon. Each phase requires a unique hunting strategy, and has different mice.
 
  
====Supply Depot====
+
===Supply Depot===
When the journey begins, the following message will appear on the journal.
+
When the '''Supply Depot''' stage begins, the following message will appear in the [[Hunter's Journal]]:
  
 
:'''The journey begins!'''<br/>
 
:'''The journey begins!'''<br/>
:The '''Train''' train has embarked on its epic journey along the Gnawnian Express Railway! We must work together as MouseHunters to protect it until it reaches its destination!<br/>
+
:The '''Train''' has embarked on its epic journey along the Gnawnian Express Railway! We must work together as MouseHunters to protect it until it reaches its destination!<br/>

:First stop is the Supply Depot to gather supplies for the train that are to be delivered to parts of Gnawnia!<br/>
 
:''If I smuggled any items with me from the last train, I will be able to use them now!''<br/>
 
:''If I smuggled any items with me from the last train, I will be able to use them now!''<br/>
  
The following hint is displayed when hovering over the Heads-up Display:
+
While the train is located in the '''Supply Depot''' Hunters must catch mice carrying [[Royal Supply Crate]]s which can be loaded onto the train to earn points. Each '''crate''' loaded is worth '''1 Train Point'''.<br/>
 +
Loading these crates onto the train will display the following message on the [[Hunter's Journal]]:
 +
:'''I wish I had a forklift!'''<br/>
 +
:I loaded '''X''' Royal Supply Crates onto the train, earning '''X''' Train Points!<br/>
  
:'''Catch mice carrying [[Royal Supply Crate]]s and load them onto the train!'''<br/>
+
Mice in the '''Supply Depot''' may also drop [[Iron Pellet]]s as loot.
:For even more supplies, equip [[Supply Schedule Charm]]s and hunt for Warehouse Manager mice to a trigger a '''Supply Rush''', releasing [[Supply Hoarder]] mice!'''
 
  
Hunting with [[Supply Schedule Charm]]s armed will allow a hunter to attract a [[Warehouse Manager Mouse]]. Upon capturing it, the following message is displayed, and for the next five hunts, every hunter in the team will be able to attract [[Supply Hoarder]]s (if more than one teammate is on the same train, then every team member gets the five hunts, and not just the one that triggered the rush).
+
'''Supply Rush:'''<br/>
 +
Equiping [[Supply Schedule Charm]]s will attract the [[Warehouse Manager]] mice. Capturing a [[Warehouse Manager]] will trigger a '''Supply Rush''' that releases [[Supply Hoarder]] mice.  [[Supply Hoarder]] mice drop larger quantities of [[Royal Supply Crate]]s.<br/>
 +
Once a '''Supply Rush''' begins, each Hunter on the team will be able to attract the [[Supply Hoarder Mouse]] for the next 5 hunts. The [[Supply Hoarder]] is not a guaranteed attraction or catch. During a '''Supply Rush''', [[Warehouse Manager]] cannot be attracted even if [[Supply Schedule Charm]] is armed.
  
 +
Upon capturing the [[Warehouse Manager]], the following message is displayed in the [[Hunter's Journal]]:
 
:'''Caught a big one!'''<br/>
 
:'''Caught a big one!'''<br/>
 
:'''Hunter''' caught a Warehouse Manager Mouse! Supply Hoarder mice will be scrambling out in the open for 5 turns! [[Supply Hoarder]] mice carry up to twice as many supplies as the [[Warehouse Manager Mouse]], so I should catch them while I can!<br/>
 
:'''Hunter''' caught a Warehouse Manager Mouse! Supply Hoarder mice will be scrambling out in the open for 5 turns! [[Supply Hoarder]] mice carry up to twice as many supplies as the [[Warehouse Manager Mouse]], so I should catch them while I can!<br/>
  
When the Supply Rush ends, the following message appears in the journal:
+
When the '''Supply Rush''' ends, the following message appears in the [[Hunter's Journal]]:
 
 
 
:Time's up!
 
:Time's up!
 
:The Supply Hoarder mice have crawled back into hiding. My team and I should try to catch another Warehouse Manager Mouse to flush them out again!
 
:The Supply Hoarder mice have crawled back into hiding. My team and I should try to catch another Warehouse Manager Mouse to flush them out again!
  
Mice in this phase drop [[Royal Supply Crate]]s. While tournaments normally ignore mice caught on trap checks, the points in this phase come from loading crates rather than catching mice, so it is beneficial to hunt during trap checks.  Loading these crates onto the train (by clicking a button on the Heads-up Display) will give the team Train Points, and display the following message on the journal.
+
Up to 10 [[Royal Supply Crate]]s not loaded onto the train at the end of this stage can be smuggled onto the next train, as long as the hunter rides this train to completion; any crates beyond 10 that were not loaded will be lost.
  
:'''I wish I had a forklift!'''<br/>
+
===Raider River===
:I loaded '''X''' Royal Supply Crates onto the train, earning '''X''' Train Points!<br/>
+
When the '''Raider River''' stage begins, the following message will appear in the [[Hunter's Journal]]:
 
 
Hunters also collect [[Iron Pellet]]s during this phase.  Up to 10 [[Royal Supply Crate]]s not loaded onto the train at the end of this stage can be smuggled onto the next train, as long as the hunter rides this train to completion; any crates beyond 10 that were not loaded will be lost.
 
 
 
====Raider River====
 
Upon entering the Raider River, the following message is displayed on the journal (the last line appearing only if something was actually smuggled):
 
  
 
:'''The train picks up some speed and starts to chug along!'''<br/>
 
:'''The train picks up some speed and starts to chug along!'''<br/>
Line 304: Line 579:
 
:There is an endless number of waves and defeating a wave will earn my team and the train extra points. We should try to defeat as many waves as possible!<br/>
 
:There is an endless number of waves and defeating a wave will earn my team and the train extra points. We should try to defeat as many waves as possible!<br/>
 
:The mice are also launching automated attacks during our hourly trap checks. Special robotic mice will always take the place of normal mice during trap checks, but they can also be encountered during normal hunts. They drop special mouse repellent that can aid us in depleting the raiding mice waves faster!<br/>
 
:The mice are also launching automated attacks during our hourly trap checks. Special robotic mice will always take the place of normal mice during trap checks, but they can also be encountered during normal hunts. They drop special mouse repellent that can aid us in depleting the raiding mice waves faster!<br/>
 +
This line appears only if Hunters have unloaded [[Royal Supply Crate]]s in their inventory:
 
:''I was able to smuggle '''X''' Royal Supply Crates with me.''<br/>
 
:''I was able to smuggle '''X''' Royal Supply Crates with me.''<br/>
  
The following hint is displayed when hovering over the Heads-up Display:
+
While the train is located in the '''Raider River''' Hunters must defeat waves of '''Raider''' mice. Each '''Raider''' mouse that is captured is worth '''1 Train Point''' and the [[Dangerous Duo]], when captured, is worth '''2 Train Points'''. [[Automice]] drop [[Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellent]] which, when sounded, reduces the current wave of '''Raiders''' by 1 and contributes '''1 Train Point''' to the Hunter's team points.
  
:'''Defeat the waves of raiders!'''<br/>
+
Using [[Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellent]] creates an entry in the [[Hunter's Journal]]:
:Earn Train Points for catch raiding mice and bonus points for defeating a wave! Raider waves are endless, so try to push back as many as you can!<br/>

:The piercing blast of the Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellent scared away '''X''' Raiders, earning '''X''' Train Points!<br/>
:Some mice drop [[Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellent]], which helps scare mice away faster!<br/>
 
  
In this phase, hunters need to defeat waves of Raider mice. During a [[Trap Check]], any mouse encountered is guaranteed to be one of the [[Automice]], for all other hunts, a [[Raider]] or [[Automice]] encounter is possible regardless of charms, although the right charm increases the chance of a Raider and is required to attract the [[Dangerous Duo]] worth 2 points instead of 1.  Raiders only attack one part of the train, the roof, door, or wheels, at a time, and the part being attacked will be indicated on the HUD. The part being attacked changes every hour, on the hour. To attract more Raider mice, hunters will need to arm [[Roof Rack Charm]]s, [[Door Guard Charm]]s, or [[Greasy Glob Charm]]s, depending on the part being attacked.
+
Upon collecting 10 points to defeat a wave, the team will be awarded an extra 10 Train Points, and the following message will be displayed:
 +
:'''My team broke through the wave!'''<br/>
 +
:Our victory earned the train an additional '''10 Train Points!''' But there's no time to celebrate, as another wave of '''10 Raiders''' is already clambering onto the train!<br/>
  
Upon collecting 10 points to defeat a wave, the team will be awarded an extra 10 Train Points, and the following message will be displayed.
+
Mice in the '''Raider River''' may also drop [[Copper Bead]]s as loot.
  
:'''My team broke through the wave!'''<br/>
+
During a Hunter's [[Trap Check]] only [[Automice]] can be attracted.  However, for all other hunts in the ''Raider River''', there is no restriction on which mice can be attracted.
:Our victory earned the train an additional '''10 Train Points!''' But there's no time to celebrate, as another wave of '''10 Raiders''' is already clambering onto the train!<br/>
 
  
Automice have a chance of dropping [[Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellent]]. While tournaments normally ignore mice caught on trap checks, the fact that no Raider mice will be attracted on a trap check, and that Repellent is worth a point when the hunter uses it (by clicking a button in the Heads-up Display), means that hunting during trap checks is beneficial.  Each Repellent used will decrease the wave count by 1, and is accompanied by the following message.
+
[[Roof Rack Charm]]s, [[Door Guard Charm]]s, and [[Greasy Glob Charm]]s increases the chance of attracting a '''Raider''' mouse and are required to attract the [[Dangerous Duo]] which are worth '''2 Train Points''' instead of 1.<br/>
 +
'''Raider''' mice attack only 1 part of the train at a time and the portion of the train being attacked changes every hour, on the hour. Hunters should arm the appropriate charm to combat the current attack.<br/>
 +
*When the '''roof''' is under attack, arm [[Roof Rack Charm]]s
 +
*When the '''doors''' are under attack, arm [[Door Guard Charm]]s
 +
*When the '''wheels''' are under attack, arm [[Greasy Glob Charm]]s
  
:The piercing blast of the Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellent scared away '''X''' Raiders, earning '''X''' Train Points!<br/>
+
Actions worth more points than mice remaining in the current wave are not wasted (catching a [[Dangerous Duo]] or using multiple '''Repellent''' in one click); the next wave begins with the appropriate number of mice already defeated. 
  
Actions worth more points than mice remaining in the current wave are not wasted (catching a [[Dangerous Duo]] or using multiple Repellent in one click); the next wave just starts with the appropriate number of mice already defeated.  Hunters also collect [[Copper Bead]]s during this phase.  Up to 10 unused [[Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellent]]s can be smuggled onto the next train, as long as the hunter rides this train to completion; any repellent beyond 10 that were not used will be lost.

===Daredevil Canyon===
Upon entering the '''Daredevil Canyon''', the following message is displayed on the journal (the last line appearing only if something was actually smuggled):
+
When the '''Daredevil Canyon''' stage begins, the following message will appear in the [[Hunter's Journal]]:
  
 
:'''The train leaves the last of the raiders behind!'''<br/>
 
:'''The train leaves the last of the raiders behind!'''<br/>
 
:But it looks like those bitter mice have smashed down the Daredevil Canyon bridge! The '''Train''' ''should'' clear the gap just fine, but let's build up as much speed as possible to guarantee our landing.<br/>
 
:But it looks like those bitter mice have smashed down the Daredevil Canyon bridge! The '''Train''' ''should'' clear the gap just fine, but let's build up as much speed as possible to guarantee our landing.<br/>

:The faster we go, the greater our reward!<br/>
 +
This line appears only if Hunters have unused [[Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellent]]s in their inventory:
 
:''I was able to smuggle '''X''' Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellent with me.''<br/>
 
:''I was able to smuggle '''X''' Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellent with me.''<br/>
  
The following hint is displayed when hovering over the Heads-up Display:
+
While the train is located in the '''Daredevil Canyon''' Hunters must collect [[Fuel Nugget]]s from mice and stoke the train's engine.<br/>
 +
Stoking the engine should be done in batches of 20 [[Fuel Nugget]]s for maximum effect. Individual submissions do '''not''' stack. <br/>
 +
'''Example:''' Submitting 2 batches of 10 [[Fuel Nugget]]s each will earn the Hunter 10 points for each batch, or 20 points in total.  Submitting one batch of 20 [[Fuel Nugget]]s will earn Hunters 35 points.<br/>
 +
Any [[Fuel Nugget]]s in excess of 20 will be saved and not consumed when the engine is stoked.<br/>
 +
'''Example:'''  If a Hunter has a batch of 23 [[Fuel Nugget]]s and stokes the engine, they gain 35 '''Train Points''' (the max allowed) and the 3 excess [[Fuel Nugget]]s are not used to stoke the engine, but to begin a new batch.
  
:Use [[Fuel Nugget]]s to speed up the train!<br/>
 
:The bridge is out! The train will safely clear the gap, but better build up some speed to be certain!<br/>
 
:Collect Fuel Nuggets and toss them into the train engine to build up speed.  The more nuggets you toss in at once, the bigger the speed boost and points will be!<br/>
 
:There is no speed limit! ''The only limit is your mind.''<br/>
 
  
In this phase, the goal is to collect [[Fuel Nugget]]s and stoke the train's engine (by pushing a button in the Heads-up Display). While tournaments normally ignore mice caught on trap checks, the points in this phase come from stoking the fire rather than catching mice, so it is beneficial to hunt during trap checks. A hunter can obtain up to 20 nuggets; stoking with 1-10 nuggets is worth 1 point each; stoking with 11-19 is worth an additional point for every nugget beyond 10, and stoking with a full 20 nuggets includes an additional bonus of 7 points, for a maximum of 35 points per stoke.  Each time the engine is stoked, a message is left in the journal:

:''Thanks to my furnace stoking, I have increased the train speed by '''X''' gnawts per hour, earning '''X''' Train Points!<br/>
  
In this phase, [[Train Engineer]] Mice drop [[Dusty Coal Charm]]s (or a hunter can purchase them at the [[Charm Shoppe]]).  Hunting with [[Dusty Coal Charm]]s allows a chance to attract the [[Coal Shoveller]] Mouse who drops [[Black Powder Charm]]s and more Fuel Nuggets.  Hunting with [[Black Powder Charm]]s allows a chance to attract the [[Black Powder Thief]] Mouse who drops [[Magmatic Crystal Charm]]s and even more Fuel Nuggets.  And hunting with [[Magmatic Crystal Charm]]s allows a chance to attract [[Magmatic Crystal Thief]] and [[Magmatic Golem]] mice for the largest amount of nuggets.  If a mouse drops more nuggets as loot than the hunter's cap of 20 would support, the extra nuggets are not wasted; once the hunter stokes the fire, the next round of collection will start with the remaining nuggets already counted.
+
Mice in '''Daredevil Canyon''' may also drop [[Tin Scrap]]s as loot.
  
Hunters also collect [[Tin Scrap]]s as loot during this phase. Up to 10 [[Fuel Nugget]]s not used for stoking the fire can be smuggled onto the next train, as long as the hunter rides this train to completion; any nuggets beyond 10 that were not used will be lost.
+
Hunters must use charms if they wish to attract certain mice in '''Daredevil Canyon'''. The mice attracted to these charms will drop larger quantities of [[Fuel Nugget]]s as loot.
 +
*[[Dusty Coal Charm]]s attract the [[Coal Shoveller Mouse]] which drops [[Black Powder Charm]]s.

*[[Black Powder Charm]]s attract the [[Black Powder Thief Mouse]] which drops [[Magmatic Crystal Charm]]s.

Additionally, depending on how well the community did, a community bonus of up to 30% is added to the trap crafting supplies ([[Iron Pellet]], [[Copper Bead]], and [[Tin Scrap]]) reward, with the result being rounded up to the next integer. A Tycoon team can get a larger bonus than a Passenger team, and all teams get a bigger bonus if the community reached the Tycoon level, but even for a team that ranked only Sleeper on a 6 hour train where the community ranked Sleeper, the bonus is still rounded up to 1.  The maximum community bonus is 1 for a 6-hour or 12-hour train, and 2 for a 24-hour train (possible via either team at Tycoon and community at Engineer or better, or by team at Engineer or better and community at Tycoon). A team that scores 0 team points is designated '''Super Snoozer''' and will not get any reward (even the community bonus is 0); at least 1% of the team goal is required to reach '''Sleeper''' level. Even with a minimum of 1 hour downtime between trains, it is faster to earn rewards from sequential 6-hour trains (9 of each metal every 21 hours for a team that hits Tycoon even if all three trains only rank Sleeper) than from longer trains (12-hour and 24-hour trains cannot earn more than 8 of each metal in 25 hours, even with the community hitting Tycoon); however, the longer trains provide more time actually hunting in the areas where the metals are available as loot from mice.

Additionally, a community bonus of up to 30% is added to the [[Iron Pellet]], [[Copper Bead]], and [[Tin Scrap]] crafting item rewards, with the result being rounded up to the next whole number. <br/>

 +
A team that scores under 1% of the team goal is designated '''Super Snoozer''' and will not get any reward (even the community bonus is 0). At least 1% of the team goal is required to reach '''Sleeper''' level.

The railroad's come to town! Board the Gnawnian Express and get set for high adventure in the Old West! Guard the supplies and protect the train to ensure its safe arrival on its perilous journey across Gnawnia!

Overview

The Gnawnian Express Station is a location in the Varmint Valley region requiring a minimum rank of Lord/Lady and the Whisker Woods Clearing Map Piece to enter. Mice are unable to steal a Hunter's supplies in the Gnawnian Express Station.

Law weapons are required to capture the mice found in this location.

In the Gnawnian Express Station, Hunters can board trains and defend them as they travel through 3 stages: Supply Depot, Raider River, and Daredevil Canyon. When not aboard a train, Hunters are in the Train Station.

Each stage of the train requires a different strategy and has weapons and charms that provide special effects. Mice in each section vary and provide specific loot drops required for obtaining the weapons that provide special effects in the Gnawnian Express Station. Each phase of the train has the same duration, equal to 1/3 of the total Trip Time.

Hunters can earn points by completing certain tasks during each phase of the train. Rewards given to Hunters are dependant upon the points earned by Hunters and their team and by the collective points earned by all teams aboard a train.

The Gnawnian Express Station requires more interaction from Hunters than many other locations. Each phase has specific weapons and charms necessary to take full advantage of the area, requiring Hunters to actively manage these items while aboard a train. Acquiring Royal Supply Crates, Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellent, and Fuel Nuggets as loot does not aid the team's score unless Hunters choose to submit them through the HUD.

Because trains use the same scheduling mechanic as Tournaments, Hunters must form (or join) a team (though they do not need to add any team members) to board trains. Hunters may not be in a Tournament at the same time they are aboard a train. Hunters may only schedule 1 train at a time. This also means that Hunters are limited to scheduling no more than 1 train and 2 Tournaments at any time.

Heads-Up Display

The HUD in the Gnawnian Express Station changes based on the Hunter's status aboard a train.

Train Station

While in the Gnawnian Express Station but not aboard a train, Hunters can review available train departures and manage scheduled train rides.

Mice with Special Requirements

Hunting Strategy

The Gnawnian Express Station with four distinct stages. Hunters must board a train in order to encounter most of the mice found in this location. While aboard the train, Hunters will travel through 3 stages, with each stage providing unique challenges. The fourth stage is the Train Station, where Hunters are located in the Gnawnian Express Station when not aboard a train.

Because the Gnawnian Express Station trains use the Tournament scheduling system to function, Hunters will need to join or create a Hunting Team if they wish to board a train. It is not required to have additional team members to join a train. Unlike Tournaments, hunting on a train in the Gnawnian Express Station does not use the tournament horn, so hunting occurs just as it would normally. This means that Hunters can take non-team members on hunts and may be taken on hunts be friends.

Trains run according to a schedule, and each train has its own name, duration and maximum capacity. A Hunting Team can have up to 5 members aboard a single train. There is a limit of 100 teams participating on a train, so it is possible for trains to reach the team cap of 100 without reaching the passenger cap of 500.

The community Points goal is determined at the rate of 2 points per hour per registered hunter (so a train holding 75 hunters for 24 hours has a target of 3600 points). Once the community goal is set, then each team goal is determined by the number of teams registered.
Example: If the community goal is 3600 and there are 50 teams registered, then each team is responsible for 72 points towards the community goal, regardless of how many Hunters from the team riding the train.

A train journey has three phases and each requires a unique hunting strategy, and has a different mix of mice. Each phase will take 1/3 of the total Trip Time.

Train Station

Hunters are located here when not aboard a train. The HUD can be used to board a train. Hunters can only schedule up to 1 train ride at a time, this also means that Hunters are limited to scheduling no more than 1 train and 2 Tournaments at any time.

Once a train leaves the station, the first leg of its journey is through the Supply Depot.

Supply Depot

When the Supply Depot stage begins, the following message will appear in the Hunter's Journal:

The journey begins!
The Train has embarked on its epic journey along the Gnawnian Express Railway! We must work together as MouseHunters to protect it until it reaches its destination!
First stop is the Supply Depot to gather supplies for the train that are to be delivered to parts of Gnawnia!
If I smuggled any items with me from the last train, I will be able to use them now!

While the train is located in the Supply Depot Hunters must catch mice carrying Royal Supply Crates which can be loaded onto the train to earn points. Each crate loaded is worth 1 Train Point.
Loading these crates onto the train will display the following message on the Hunter's Journal:

I wish I had a forklift!
I loaded X Royal Supply Crates onto the train, earning X Train Points!

Mice in the Supply Depot may also drop Iron Pellets as loot.

Supply Rush:
Equiping Supply Schedule Charms will attract the Warehouse Manager mice. Capturing a Warehouse Manager will trigger a Supply Rush that releases Supply Hoarder mice. Supply Hoarder mice drop larger quantities of Royal Supply Crates.
Once a Supply Rush begins, each Hunter on the team will be able to attract the Supply Hoarder Mouse for the next 5 hunts. The Supply Hoarder is not a guaranteed attraction or catch. During a Supply Rush, Warehouse Manager cannot be attracted even if Supply Schedule Charm is armed.

Upon capturing the Warehouse Manager, the following message is displayed in the Hunter's Journal:

Caught a big one!
Hunter caught a Warehouse Manager Mouse! Supply Hoarder mice will be scrambling out in the open for 5 turns! Supply Hoarder mice carry up to twice as many supplies as the Warehouse Manager Mouse, so I should catch them while I can!

When the Supply Rush ends, the following message appears in the Hunter's Journal:

Time's up!
The Supply Hoarder mice have crawled back into hiding. My team and I should try to catch another Warehouse Manager Mouse to flush them out again!

Up to 10 Royal Supply Crates not loaded onto the train at the end of this stage can be smuggled onto the next train, as long as the hunter rides this train to completion; any crates beyond 10 that were not loaded will be lost.

Raider River

When the Raider River stage begins, the following message will appear in the Hunter's Journal:

The train picks up some speed and starts to chug along!
Laden down with supplies, the Train is a tempting target for raiding mice! A wave of 10 Raiders are swarming the train, trying to smash their way inside! My team and I should equip the right charm to attract and capture these raiders!
There is an endless number of waves and defeating a wave will earn my team and the train extra points. We should try to defeat as many waves as possible!
The mice are also launching automated attacks during our hourly trap checks. Special robotic mice will always take the place of normal mice during trap checks, but they can also be encountered during normal hunts. They drop special mouse repellent that can aid us in depleting the raiding mice waves faster!

This line appears only if Hunters have unloaded Royal Supply Crates in their inventory:

I was able to smuggle X Royal Supply Crates with me.

While the train is located in the Raider River Hunters must defeat waves of Raider mice. Each Raider mouse that is captured is worth 1 Train Point and the Dangerous Duo, when captured, is worth 2 Train Points. Automice drop Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellent which, when sounded, reduces the current wave of Raiders by 1 and contributes 1 Train Point to the Hunter's team points.

Using Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellent creates an entry in the Hunter's Journal:

The piercing blast of the Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellent scared away X Raiders, earning X Train Points!

Upon collecting 10 points to defeat a wave, the team will be awarded an extra 10 Train Points, and the following message will be displayed:

My team broke through the wave!
Our victory earned the train an additional 10 Train Points! But there's no time to celebrate, as another wave of 10 Raiders is already clambering onto the train!

Mice in the Raider River may also drop Copper Beads as loot.

During a Hunter's Trap Check only Automice can be attracted. However, for all other hunts in the Raider River', there is no restriction on which mice can be attracted.

Roof Rack Charms, Door Guard Charms, and Greasy Glob Charms increases the chance of attracting a Raider mouse and are required to attract the Dangerous Duo which are worth 2 Train Points instead of 1.
Raider mice attack only 1 part of the train at a time and the portion of the train being attacked changes every hour, on the hour. Hunters should arm the appropriate charm to combat the current attack.

Actions worth more points than mice remaining in the current wave are not wasted (catching a Dangerous Duo or using multiple Repellent in one click); the next wave begins with the appropriate number of mice already defeated.

Up to 10 unused Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellents can be smuggled onto the next train, as long as the hunter rides this train to completion; any repellent beyond 10 that were not used will be lost.

Daredevil Canyon

When the Daredevil Canyon stage begins, the following message will appear in the Hunter's Journal:

The train leaves the last of the raiders behind!
But it looks like those bitter mice have smashed down the Daredevil Canyon bridge! The Train should clear the gap just fine, but let's build up as much speed as possible to guarantee our landing.
The faster we go, the greater our reward!

This line appears only if Hunters have unused Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellents in their inventory:

I was able to smuggle X Raider-B-Gone Mouse Repellent with me.

While the train is located in the Daredevil Canyon Hunters must collect Fuel Nuggets from mice and stoke the train's engine.
Stoking the engine should be done in batches of 20 Fuel Nuggets for maximum effect. Individual submissions do not stack.
Example: Submitting 2 batches of 10 Fuel Nuggets each will earn the Hunter 10 points for each batch, or 20 points in total. Submitting one batch of 20 Fuel Nuggets will earn Hunters 35 points.
Any Fuel Nuggets in excess of 20 will be saved and not consumed when the engine is stoked.
Example: If a Hunter has a batch of 23 Fuel Nuggets and stokes the engine, they gain 35 Train Points (the max allowed) and the 3 excess Fuel Nuggets are not used to stoke the engine, but to begin a new batch.

Each time the engine is stoked, a message is left in the journal:

Thanks to my furnace stoking, I have increased the train speed by X gnawts per hour, earning X Train Points!

Mice in Daredevil Canyon may also drop Tin Scraps as loot.

Hunters must use charms if they wish to attract certain mice in Daredevil Canyon. The mice attracted to these charms will drop larger quantities of Fuel Nuggets as loot.

Up to 10 Fuel Nuggets not used for stoking the engine can be smuggled onto the next train, as long as the hunter rides this train to completion; any nuggets beyond 10 that were not used will be lost.

Completing a Train Ride and Collecting Rewards

At the end of the train ride, the following message is left in the Hunter's Journal:

The train launches through the air!
Launching itself off the end of the tracks at X gnawts per hour the Train soared through the air majestically. At the peak of our jump, the hunters onboard the train released the payload of supplies, making it rain onto the kingdom below. The King's Royal Supply Gatherers will be out in force to collect them soon.
During my brief weightlessness, I reflected upon what odds and hardships we fought against and am proud of my fellow hunters for successfully protecting and helping deliver the needed supplies!
The train safely crash-landed in the cushioned train yard below. I have disembarked and should now claim my reward!
A big cheer to the hunters of the Train!

This line appears only if Hunters have unused Fuel Nuggets in their inventory:

I was able to smuggle X Fuel Nuggets with me.

Once Hunters claim their prize, this message is left in the Hunter's Journal:

I helped the train [Train Name] safely reach its destination on the Gnawnian Express!
My team reached the rank of X, scoring X Train Points toward the team goal of X.
The train as a whole reached the rank of X, scoring X Train Points toward the train goal of X.
In total, I claimed the following as a reward for protecting the train:
X Iron Pellets,
X Copper Beads,
X Tin Scraps,
X Train Badges,
X Fool's Gold,
X Gold,
X Points.

The base awards are determined by what percentage of points the team achieved towards the team goal, as follows:

Hunting Tips by Larry

YEEHAW! All aboard the Gnawnian Express!

The construction of the first trans-Gnawnian railroad is complete! Hunters are coming from all around to board the Gnawnian Express and journey across the land!

The King has tasked MouseHunters with the duty of securing a train filled with supplies bound for different parts of Gnawnia, ensuring its safe arrival!

Our goal as a collective group of several hunting teams is to collect supplies in the Supply Depot, defend the train from raiding mice when passing through Raider River, and then make the jump across the downed bridge over Daredevil Canyon!

The trains will be challenging at first, but hunters are rewarded for their efforts, so the better you do, the more you receive! The main goal is to work together with other hunters and any aid we provide is welcomed!

It's one big effort and teams will work together with other teams aboard their train to complete the journey successfully, so just do your best and enjoy the ride!
