My first foray into the swamp was yesterday. Other than the visibility, I didn't think it was too bad...at first.

I had one place where there was a few bone piles combined with a couple of body piles, where I got a little overwhelmed but a tactical retreat led me to victory, nonetheless. Hit my first sunken crypt and mined up a good amount of scrap iron.

I was sweet sailing....and it made me a bit over-confident...because then I ran into an abomination. Corpse run followed shortly after. :)

I think the best advice I've gotten for this game so far was to not get over-confident in new areas and be cautious, rather than run everywhere. Sadly I forgot it yesterday.
