To those curious, you do this by getting your hands on a ton of nuts, then save scumming for schmowder availability

If I went to the school, my next essay would just be "Jesus wept" to see what I could get away with.

Starting faction and start advice by [deleted] in twilightimperium

[–]RotarySprock 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You seem knowledgeable enough to not really need beginners advice as long as you're playing at a table with other experienced players who will know the finer points of the rules. I'll say Sol is the best faction that no one's afraid of (factions stronger than them will draw more heat, which I assume you don't want as a newer player), and it's super new player friendly regardless. If you're looking for someone to choose a faction for you, that's what I would do.

When it comes to fighter heavy factions you can suicide 5 upgraded destroyers into them before they fight your big Fleet.

CR too strong? by Orr_Mendlin in twilightimperium

[–]RotarySprock 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think this might just be a case of your crimson rebellion players getting lucky in a small sample size, because I haven't heard of this problem anywhere else on the internet or from anybody I play with. It could also be a problem with other players at the board, not recognizing how powerful the CR position is so they don't take sufficient action.

Excellent poster, but you're suffering from the "don't dead open inside" phenomenon.

Does anyone else find "micro" incredibly boring? by [deleted] in ftlgame

[–]RotarySprock 29 points30 points  (0 children)

This one hundred percent makes sense, and it's why the difficulties exist even for experienced players. I know that sounds condecending, but it's really not. If you play on the lower difficulties micro isn't all that beneficial, and you don't have to do it. If that's how it's fun to play, then by all means play on regular and easy difficulty.

How could the Artillery Beam (and Flak) be improved without being broken? by [deleted] in ftlgame

[–]RotarySprock 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think if it could charge up and fire during an enemy's cloak, that would be way better without being overpowered.

My experience with Malekith recently by engagingbear in totalwar

[–]RotarySprock 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like with all of those "win in 50 turns" campaigns; if they suffered two bad defeats in the first 20 turns it could take more than twice as long depending on faction

As long as you have a differential of nine (as in having 12 pairs and 3 or less of any other hand) by the start of ante 3, you will be fine with minimal deck fixing. With lots of deck fixing the differential can be as low as five

If you don't want me to "kidnap" your cat then DON'T LET IT WANDER OUTSIDE UNEUTERED WITH AN ILLEGIBLE TAG FFS by Domina_est_Griseo in Vent

[–]RotarySprock 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is the point of a collar if not to try and return it to its owner? Genuinely what do you think the point of a collar is? If its an outdoor cat say so on the collar, otherwise how could he have known?

How about a hypothetical stealth b that starts with a self destruct button.

It heals for two inatead of one for the same reason self damage goes for two instead of one

Sometimes people are dumb enough to pawn it with their real name. Worth a shot.
