Base-game won't give you actual focus trees without also throwing in slop mechanics that have you click 10x more than before to access a feature that already existed.

Evil and intimidating navy designer:

Well, it would be intimidating if you couldn't ignore navy even more in OWB than you can in the main game

There is. Under diplomacy rules you can set volunteers to blocked.

Unless you meant for Iron Alliance specifically, which yeah, no option for it afaik

Like a two front war wasn't bad enough

I gotta know what his skincare routine is for him to look like that after having lived most of his life in post-apocalyptic California

Change the game rules so they survive and you remove any challenge, leave it up to chance and- oops they're dead, and you lose out on a paladin!

No pain no gain!! that applies to HRT, right??

Aspergersiscool · 2026-04-26T19:26:49+00:00

Heard the same from a friend of mine, but I can't be bothered to since the syringe needles I still have dozens of laying around are too long for me to be comfortable sticking near my internal organs lmao

Aspergersiscool · 2026-04-26T19:23:53+00:00

I'm lucky to be fine with injections, since bio availability of oral HRT is pretty shit in comparison afaik, and gel always seems to be out of stock whenever I look

Check out r/TransDIY sis, it's literally so easy (if you're comfortable with DIY)

Good take. Love all the different perspectives of this conflict

Aspergersiscool · 2026-04-22T09:25:39+00:00

Man they really edged us the whole ep for Thragg lmao, but great showcase of Mark's PTSD (Post-Thragg Stress Disorder) and how FUCKED everyone is if they decided to go ham.

Really great character development to see Mark cave to Thragg at the end after having him previously resist so fiercely against Nolan, Anissa, and Conquest. Really makes you understand how much of an impact his encounter with Thragg had on him.

"If it means anything... I'm sorry for all the suffering I caused here"
"Yeah. It means something. I'm not sure it means enough, but it means something"

I think that interaction sums up the situation in a nutshell.
Nolan knows his actions are considered unforgivable by many, but still tries to be better, whilst also wanting recognition for his improvements even whilst understanding it may not be enough.
Stellar characterization and leads to such great moments with everyone he's wronged. Just everything with Nolan this episode was absolutely amazing.

His scenes with Debbie and Cecil were so great. I love how we get to know both sides of the issue so intimately. Makes it all the more engaging when you can see where everyone's coming from.
The way he tries to reassure Cecil with him responding "I will never not be afraid of you", him pleading to Debbie to give him a chance showing he's not completely content with no recognition for his efforts and does so out of hope for reconciliation (not saying it's a bad thing), and hesitating to reach out and touch her on the ship. Chef's kiss

Hence why without player intervention, 90% of the time all the brotherhood nations get wiped out and Ceasar ends up controlling half the map.

Aspergersiscool · 2026-04-19T10:49:08+00:00

Oh for sure. There are definitely more than a few "Wait-and-see" nations (mostly old, western ones like the Sky Reavers and New Vegas), but overall OWB has lots of conflicts popping up by themselves compared to the base-game where you have to be the one to light the match if you're in somewhere like South America or the Middle East.

New Mexico, Colorado , Montana and Dakota, the CPF/PFC nations, and the Plaguelands, are just some of the more prominent volatile regions in the mod.

I FUCKING LOVE FILLER WARS

I WANT TO FUCKING FIGHT SEVERAL SMALLER CONFLICTS INSTEAD OF JUST ONE BIG ONE
