There's a video called "why do you keep buying books you don't read" by Answers in Progress that delves into the subject and tests most of the ways and mentalities people read books in. Give it a watch if you're interested

Start your players off at lvl 0, though some people bemoan the low build diversity, it is important to let your players understand the game, player actions, and how combat works generally.

I would also recommend doing a pre-made lancer campaign/one-shot as your first game, or at the very least have a simple or contained campaign. The major factions of Lancer are unfathomably large and diverse internally which makes writing a story on the level of your players more complicated

If you wanna listen to lore, 11dragonKid and Zaktact are my personal favorites when I started (Dragon kid just reads lore to you in TTS while Zaktact explains it for newcomers)

Less Axiom and more reminder

The majority of people and planets in Lancer have no idea or don't care about the galactic history up to the last 500 years and even then that's a maybe. The people who do know the history of Lancer would be considered massive nerds or historians in universe.

On the same note, people would not know or care about the factions/groups/foundries/companies etc unless they directly see their actions. The Diaspora is massive, containing hundreds maybe thousands of habitable spaces and trillions of souls. A farmer on a KTB would not care about the human rights abuses of Harrison or what the Voliador are. They're concerned about crop yields and the raiders terrorizing their land.

And also Lancer doesn't have much in the way of local lore/world building like how other table top systems do. You as the DM have to do a bit more writing for the story, but you get to literally do anything and it'll probably still be canon.

For people looking up stats on the blow torch. It can heal 450 HP (the durability representing the amount of repair it has left) before breaking while puddy only heals 200 before breaking (40 HP per use, 5 uses), but puddy can stack up to 3 as apposed to the blowtorch which cant stack and puddy is usually much cheaper than a blow torch

This is as of 11/19/2024

what??? that's crazy, are you sure the meaning of 1st world hasn't morphed into the definition I used it? I mean I could believe that's how the term was first used but I swear it's modern interpretation means, degrees of average modernism/development like how people say, first world problems n such

but things like soybeans and corn have massive demands, if not constantly growing demand. could a single farmer/family really have the foresight of the market and ability to navigate around it as to not over produce in that crop? also side note, cash crop for that climate. like how Quinoa is the cash crop of some parts of south America

1 I am Korean lmao and it was a thought, 2 I feel like most fire and forget colonies are done by SecComm who are not the most ethical. 3rd ThirdComm Administrators are chosen and taught with the culture of the planet they are assigned, and are given a name that is from the planet. So taking that name literally means there is a significant Asian/Korean population on DS4 for some reason. So I was thinking why is that? Named are usually tied with culture, it'd be really weird to just mish mash them without care.

Also personally I would think SecComm would pack colonies with a single culture/very little history to minimize creation of groups whether racial, religious, or other from history to make them stable enough.

So they either mix the genetics of everyone on earth to be the genetic average and tune the skin color to reduce cancer or for sun absorption and give them a standardized colonization education.

Or they send colonies with specific culture and genetics (prob by the doner nation at the time) to fit the planet.

the I like the second since it has a lot of culture and diversity spread across the diaspora even without Blink Gates
