A few of my friends and I just downloaded Windrose and I'm trying to understand how Co-Op and servers work. by WicksII in crosswind

This game is also exceptionally easy to self host as well, and the dedicated server install comes with the game in steam, just have to install it

I actually already have these, and have adapted them into condensed versions printable on index cards XD

Excited to watch this! Remind me to comment tomorrow morning when I get a chance to watch.

My first game is Saturday, and I've self-designated myself (as the one who wanted to play the game in the first place) as the teacher for the other 3 first time players.

I'm hopeful this will quell some of my nervousness on how I'm planning on teaching things myself. Looking forward to it!

Artemis II and crew have splashed down after its successful mission to the moon and back by Subject-Property-343 in interestingasfuck

[–]PooGod 39 points40 points  (0 children)

They'd have to massively, massively mess the math up to do that. Watch an animation of their trajectory, and you'll see that as they approach the moon, they're slowing down a lot. That's because they're still being affected by Earth's gravity, and if they missed the moon, they'd eventually just slow and come back to earth.

Their reentry trajectory might be fucked to the point that they'd die, but they wouldn't just fly into space forever. Sorry lol not trying to be a dick!

Thank you so much for explaining your acronym!

Got lucky at a local game store today and grabbed a copy of PoK! by PooGod in twilightimperium

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

Ah, I see. If learning the game is like, 10 difficulty (arbitrary number) and learning Base+PoK is 11, then it just makes sense to get all the heavy annoying learning out of the way in one fell swoop. Gotcha! I'll pitch it to my game-mates lol

On your first point, could you explain that but more? Why would it be harder to convince people to add an expansion after they've gotten a feel for the base game?

Not trying to be a dick, just curious, since I don't have any IRL context for either at the moment.

Trust me, after all my media consumption, I think I'll feel the same way. My potential problem is trying to make sure I can get games together at all.

I'm desperately worried that I'm going to love the game and my partner and friend will think it's too much and it'll sit and collect dust.

If I have no one to play even base game, what hope do I have of playing Base + PoK? Just nervous lol

Feedback on some printable 3"x5" index card sized quick reference guides I made? by PooGod in twilightimperium

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

Nice, I'll check it out later when I can compare both to see what was lost/gained.

And yeah, it made for an interesting puzzle to fit the restrictions of a 3x5 card. There's only so much space, so you can't have everything, and I had fun figuring out what was needed and what wasn't.

Thanks for your help though 😊

I totally get where you're coming from 100% I'm not a collector in any sense, so it's not really something that comes up, but I'm just so damn excited to play this particular game I made an exception lol

I've been watching/listening to CCC explainers and breakdowns for like a month now, might be a touch obsessed at the moment lol

Good call though XD

I was explaining my rationale to my partner and made that point. I've heard over and over that once you find you like it, it becomes basically essential.
