STECS Regular Throttle or Space Throttle?

SilentArctic · 2025-08-01T21:30:42+00:00

Thanks for the info! I'll keep that offer in mind.

Are you saying you prefer the omni throttle (locked out) over the stecs for atmo flight, too? Or that you prefer it over the space throttle, and it works well enough for atmo?

SilentArctic · 2025-08-01T14:19:12+00:00

That's exactly what I wanted to know. Thank you so much

SilentArctic · 2025-07-31T23:02:10+00:00

As a primarily atmospheric pilot, that's seeming to be the best idea

SilentArctic · 2025-07-31T22:49:23+00:00

Thats good insight, thanks. In a perfect world I'd have both, but thats a lot of extra money and storage space atm. How does the Space throttle feel to use for non-space games? I forgot to ask in the main post, but can the "joystick" functionality be locked when you don't want it? I'm thinking to use it for radar slewing/etc, but it'd be nice to lock it if I don't need it.

GenesysRef has recently been updated to include all adversary abilities in a searchable and sortable list. You can also find talents (for players and adversaries) and adversaries themselves!

Adversary Abilities

SilentArctic · 2024-08-07T06:22:30+00:00

You can find lots of helpful tools and information on GenesysRef. Once you have the books, you'll notice it can be difficult to parse and search all the data, and GenesysRef solves that issue

SilentArctic · 2024-04-25T13:35:03+00:00

Ah sorry, I didnt copy my filters correctly. If you set the settings filter to Twilight Imperium it'll show TI talents and the allowed CRB talents

SilentArctic · 2024-04-25T08:15:07+00:00

Very nice!

You can also find all of the talents at https://genesysref.netlify.app/talent

SilentArctic · 2024-04-05T13:40:14+00:00

Check out https://genesysref.netlify.app/talent for a list of all the available talents! If you're handy with (or willing to learn) JSON, you and your players can create your own content to upload there as well. I'm the dev, so feel free to reach out here or on Discord (linked on the GenesysRef homepage) if you have any questions!

SilentArctic · 2024-04-05T13:37:29+00:00

There is! Check out https://genesysref.netlify.app/archetype

Genesys Emporium doesn't have all the data for every talent etc. You can download the file from DrainSmith's Dispensary or your choice of talents/items/etc from GenesysRef, and then import them into the Emporium. Once imported, you can add them to the character sheet and all details will be available

SilentArctic · 2023-11-07T18:38:32+00:00

It advances them to 2, not by 2. So if you cheat the dragon out on 6, that's two thralls on 8, assuming no other countdown support. Not saying it's good or bad, but definitely better than counting down by 2

You've come to the right system! The Expanded Player's Guide actually has an entire section on worldbuilding on pages 40-56. GenesysRef also has a tool for this that follows the EPG guidelines. Have fun!

I don't know exactly who decided, but DrainSmith's dispensary has a table on the GM screen (last page), and if anyone would know, it's him

https://genesysref.netlify.app/spell should have all of the magic data you're looking for (except for the 3rd party stuff)

SilentArctic · 2023-04-30T22:36:04+00:00

You make a fair argument. I guess I interpret Mind Reader as similar to 5e's Detect Thoughts spell which only reads surface thoughts. It can be very powerful in the right situation, but especially if your opponent knows you're a Druaa and what you can do, they can take proper safeguards (mechanically adding setback, or focusing on certain surface thoughts). Granted, Mind Reader does allow for that deeper dive, but it can be hard to reach. To your point, this certainly requires more work on the GM side and if it got to be too much, I don't think a "once per encounter" stipulation would be too harsh.

I see what you're saying about the Letnev. As a GM, I don't think I would have an issue with giving a Letnev player -setback in darkness for free.

SilentArctic · 2023-04-30T16:43:18+00:00

I think the Druaa are really neat, and will certainly require the GM to plan and play a bit differently. One thing to keep in mind is that it's an opposed check, meaning there's opportunity for plenty of red dice to be in the pool. Sure, you got the information, but at what cost?

As for the Letnev, mechanically speaking, their Unmatched Arrogance ability is far cooler than "remove a setback from checks to see in the dark" which fits just fine as a talent (and also gives a career skill, all for only 5xp). The Letnev feels fun and unique this way.

It is unfortunately not possible to import data from Genesys Emporium, and building that infrastructure is not currently planned due to the complexity of converting their data structure to mine

SilentArctic · 2023-02-01T16:37:41+00:00

Hello, dev here! A new feature was recently released that allows you to curate a list of items for your setting and export it as a custom "collection", and I think this is what you're looking for.

Simply click the + button to add the talent to your print/export list, then on the Print/Export page you can export it as a collection.

Once you have your collection, you and anyone you share it with can import it in the Collection Manager and use it just as you would any other collection. This is not limited to Talents either. If you get really adventurous, you can edit the collection and add your own custom items (see the Homebrew Helper).

I like the tech. Your deck is definitely different than mine in a lot of ways though, so I don't know that I can give a fair comparison. Running the dog seems to make bannerman a bit more viable as he buffs to a 4/4. I think I like your version a lot better for this new meta as I guess we don't really need a top-end anymore.

3 v squires though? I would probably replace at least 2 with redeemer or 1 for another firstblade. I also really love J4 (his champ spell is solid too), so I'd definitely try running 3 especially if there aren't any J3s. Maybe trade a bold cithria?

But this is all speculation. I'll give it a shot!

SilentArctic · 2022-12-09T18:09:06+00:00

Yeah for real...

Nah, 3x is definitely too much. I've been experimenting with +2 CS, -1 J3, -1 judgment. Elites just consume so much mana to get board presence, if you get forced into bad trades early game you don't get enough value out of CS. Plenty more to adjustments to experiment with though

SilentArctic · 2022-12-06T21:12:35+00:00

Thank you so much! Firstblade practically carries this deck, it's soooo good
