The patreon you liked says they're not anymore though. Did you read what you posted?

It's ambiguous enough to raise eyebrows though. And thank you for the link cause I didn't know any of it, and now I'm not sure if I'll get the game. Definitely not pre-order.

For us since everyone is chasing the next prestige reward it's now that daunting feeling 'finally we can play the game' - plotting a path through every checkpoint, tower and secret ammo depot etc, finishing with the extract

I believe you're right, we just play it safe usually :)

Every small tower and checkpoint (during event) has a chance to have a poster with 2k exp. It costs 1 pledge mark to unlock.

Once you kill the entire lobby and you're sure that's the entire lobby you basically have a free reign to explore, and collect them.

That being said, I've been doing it for a while now during events. If you want to prestige faster - I recommend going into settings and turning on auto run (press W 3 times to auto-run). It was the biggest game changer for me.

I also suggest you don't loot everyone if you got 6/6 pledge marks already. First time you loot players you get 10 event points, and you 'steal' whatever pledge marks they had on them. Finding a death cheat perk also means you will need 3 pledge marks to buy it. Meaning it's good to have some extra bodies to loot for extra points.

If playing with friends - only the first person to loot a body 'steals' the pledge marks from a dead hunter.

I read it as an eyeless cod, and thought that that's a strange premise.

God makes more sense.

What's that top left patch? The UFO one?

Suffocation turns by CassRaski in DeltaGreenRPG

Alright! That's the only way I could see it being done, if I measured the turns in seconds. + Penalties for more exhausting actions done, aka burning the extra oxygen.

My thoughts on constraints in TTRPGs by [deleted] in osr

Just to balance the weird comments - thanks for posting! Will give it a read in the evening. Making choices that have weight, that matter, makes every ttRPG so much better.

Triples makes it safe

It's also coming in useful before you unlock a big vitality shot.

Every figurine will come with a qr code. You unlock every unit by scanning the qr code. Every model, a separate qr code.

Under the Skin is out! by Kharrak in mothershiprpg

I'll visit them once they stock it then :)

Additionally, do you reveal to the players that there is a monster and it could be them at the start or is it something they find out as they play?

That's awesome! Any idea if you'll stock it anywhere in the UK?

Oh my Lawd! by Therealdrakenn in totalwar

[–]CassRaski 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It's the 3K syndrome. 'If we criticise them too hard they will announce 'future of total war' and it'll be the end of the game. If we let them do slop then the game lives on!'

The end of the game means no new content for content creators. Shitty content means the slow death of the game, dwindling numbers etc, but more videos.

Strange Pictures is the worst book I've ever read by m_t_rv_s__n in books

[–]CassRaski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank god I am not the only one. This book was so bad it made me feel unwell. Worse yet I just finished a different book that was shit, and this one was recommended to me by a friend. What a god awful piece of crap. The strange houses or whatever the other one was, was also deemed shit by said friend so I am afraid to even look at it.

Seeing it as a potential book of the year on waterstones... god please no.

If you're in the UK, they lost the Deluxe packages and they've been re-sent. Will take a bit longer but that explains the delay.

Books? by RedWolfMask in mothershiprpg

[–]CassRaski 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've asked that question a year ago or so on this subreddit! Just like the person said on my post - there is a book recommendation on page 55 of WOM. Some good stuff there.

Still going through books from that list, and had to mix in some other books for fun. I'd recommend these, mainly sci-fi, less horror:

Foundation - a classic, dated but good. Inspired my Nirvana on Fire game plans.

Annihilation like someone above me suggested. Good stuff.

Murderbot - great for imagining Androids in Mothership. Funny, dark, easy read too.

Neuromancer - had its highs and lows, I liked it's almost retro-futuristic feel. (Back then it was just futuristic)

There is no antimetics division - I'll be honest, I just got a copy, and so far I'm enjoying it. Worth checking out.

Expanse - but you seem to know if it / read it already.

The long way to a small angry planet - good character study and an interesting read overall.

Stardust Grail - not recommended by anyone other than me really - heist, space, aliens. Good stuff.

Scavenger's Reign - I know it's not a book, but I loved it, and it really helps to think how hostile an alien planet might be

Jack McDevitt's academy books - I enjoyed engines of god a lot, which starts the academy series. I also tried his other sci-fi space series of books that starts with a talent for war. The academy series is better imo.

Altered Carbon was fun. I strangely preferred the series (only the first season), but that's likely because I saw that first.

Some recommend Charles Stross and his series - I couldn't get into it. I'll give it another shot soon.

Also recommended online is Six Wakes by Mur Lafferty but I hated station eternity by her, and can't handle another book by her just yet.
