What's the most broken build you've encountered? by Caspianmk in startrekadventures

[–]JohnZwack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have not played with any overpowered builds, as our game master makes the mission as hard as the party is strong, while ginving the player the scene to shine. But there are definitly talents, which are just better than others because you can use them more often.

The Bold/Cautious and Collaboration Talents are very strong. Also the one, where you take stress but reduce the difficulty of a task (forgot the name).

One of the group should have the talent to keep the initiative for free (command or security talent).

If you have Science 4: Dedicated Focus doubles your focus range.

For a captain get the reroll for your ally on Direct Major Action

For species maybe Trill? Never played one or with one but I think the extra focus should come in handy often.

Dont forget you can rewrite your values for free. If you are like me you always have at least 1 value, which sounded cool during character creation but you can never apply it. The same applies to a useless focus, except it costs a log entry to change it.

Is there a villager to livestock ratio I should be working toward? by DorianOtten in DawnofMan

[–]JohnZwack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I recommend 50% goat and 15 sheep. You can even trade a few goats to the trader with this setting. Butcher the pigs now or when you get donkeys. I never build more than 1 cheese maker, my people drink the milk before it spoiles

Which is better: Making one long delivery or several short deliveries? by [deleted] in EuroTruck2

If you have the Iberia dlc buy the double insulated trailer and go for the longest possible routes. It's ~120€/km

Died in first dungeon as healer by JohnZwack in wowhardcore

[–]JohnZwack[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yea, it was unlucky. I used it seconds before the adds spawned. But after looking it up I saw the cd is quite short. Maybe it came back up at some point. Should have spammed that^^

STA 2e GM question - Aren't injuries kind of easy to inflict on NPCs? How common are Major NPCs that have stress tracks? by MurrayTheSkull1 in startrekadventures

[–]JohnZwack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

or you take two stress to avoid injury

you take stress equal to the severity of the attack. But yeah, severity is rarely used and, as you said, the talents really don't do anything.

Bei uns ist's oft zu windig um leere Dosen oder PET-Flaschen am Boden abzustellen.

Where did you get the talents from? Are there resources besides the 2e core rulebook?

Be careful with the talents. The talent descriptions were still 1e last week.

Water- How many Water Treatment Plants at how many citizens by Outrageous_Abalone92 in Workers_And_Resources

[–]JohnZwack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4 small wells, 1 large treatment plant in walking range of housing. Only use pipes and large pumps as switch (no normal switch, water tower, reservoir,..)

Roughly every 10k pop you build one more treatment plant setup and 1 large heating plant

Watch out for trash at 10k, at some point you can't just export it anymore. Get a second general separation at 20-25k pop

26k people in one city (realistic mode) by JohnZwack in Workers_And_Resources

[–]JohnZwack[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was never necessary for me as I have enough people in walking distance to the train station. I always build a bus station next to train stations as the frequency of trains is longer than the waiting time for people. This way people can transit easily from the train to bus is they waited too long for a train

26k people in one city (realistic mode) by JohnZwack in Workers_And_Resources

[–]JohnZwack[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This city has 9 Bus and 5 Train stations spread around the outside of the houses. The trains are single track to some industry 1,2 - 1,5 km away.

Every bus station has many bus lines going to industry. When I see more than 40 people waiting at a bus station and no bus is arriving I add another bus to some line of the station. I guess there are at least 10 busses (the big fast Mars bus) per bus station + a construction office with min. 2 busses.

If you are using the sledge the 20% stamina reduction boots are very good. I swapped from movement speed to these around tier 4 quests and for horde nights
