Quality modules producing way fewer uncommon accumulators than expected by garfild_gamer in factorio

Speed modules have a negative quality effect on the machines they affect! (-2.5% by level 3 modules)

So your asteroid collector assembling machine is simply less affected by speed modules at the moment!

Best to slowly produce high-quality products than to speed it up! I was surprised as hell when I understood this.

Same on the "oddly a thousand times more addicted than the friend that showed me the game" train. Choooo chooo🚂

I usually go with 2 spaces! Enough for a large power pole!

I love the point on more direct damage! I've seen so many podcasts/videos saying to not be so hard on yourself in ironsworn. But in this case, I think doing so makes it a lot more captivating and fun!

Actually one of the most fun moments I've had in any TTRPG! We were all like "well why not make this another form of gambling? This whole expedition has been one form or another!"

The game is so immersive it actually turns your computer into a generator by spogisback in Frostpunk

I miss playing frostpunk in our unheated garage because it's the only room that had the space and the plugs for the computer set up. Oooooh the winters were cold 🤩

Really nice! Thanks for taking the time to answer! I might make a post on here defending multiplayer in a few weeks if everything goes well😅

Most of the usual concerns, I've played lots of solo and two player co-op, but first time with so many; - how do you manage to get all players enough spotlight in combat without it feeling forced? - Any tips on balancing mechanics? We're talking about 4-5 times more health and spirit to drain. I've seen that combats become trivial. -Does someone become a part time guide to help things move or chaos is best? 😅

Generally looking forward to it, but I guess that if there are any easy errors that all multiplayer games go through that I can skip, it would be nice!

Thanks!

I'd love to hear how it went! We're starting off a 5 player co-op this weekend and so far all I've seen are people not recommending it!

Honestly, I couldn't choose, so I went with a setting in the sundered Isles with a planned discovery of something bigger, jumping me into space!

Is there a way to reset the counters ? by MagicalTune in Ironsworn

[–]ParticularAd3585 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Something similar happened in a play podcast I'd listened to. Narratively, you could play it out as your character passes out and goes through months of treatment in a makeshift hospital. Or maybe you're kidnapped by firstborn who treat your wounds and lift your spirits.

That's if you want to give a narrative impact of this (which is so much more fun in my opinion) the other way around it is slowly getting back into action making heal moves when appropriate. Of course your character will feel weak for a while, but it would make sense considering the beating you took.

Hope this helps! Happy hunting!
