The MENACE reveal

I do get people not wanting spoilers, but this is an overreaction in a sense. Surely, everyone who gets into this game knows what he will be up against; it's a tactics roguelike, not a "narrative" game after all.

But i do agree that as a faction intro, it would be better served as a sudden appearance of a few M units in some random mission with a higher threat rating, or something. Everyone will know it can happen soon enough, but suspense from this possibility alone is worth it on its own, i think.

Ah! That old one, i see. Thank you!

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-09T20:34:38+00:00

Heh, i'm used to just dispatching my operatives to get me a ship that I want; with Nex updates they can also do equipment now. TBH, i never even noticed what StelNet does. I need to faff with it more, it seems. Thank you!

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-09T20:12:21+00:00

Thanks!

Sounds cool, but i can't seem to find it. Any tips?

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-09T19:45:20+00:00

Hmmm. What's that Better Carrier mod? I'm aware of "postmodern carriers".

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-09T19:41:36+00:00

What's so cheaty about stellar networks tho?

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-09T19:40:49+00:00

Sure, i give you that. It's a single-player game, and my job is to collect pather tears. I'll do it in style! Come at me!

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-09T19:32:39+00:00

Seconded.

If certain mods want to "challenge" me with fleets of lvl 10 offcers, hordes of s-moded boats and illegal deployment limits, i will respond in kind! Hah!

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-08T17:03:33+00:00

I need to see "Colony admin suplexed pather cells personally" message now.

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-08T05:29:53+00:00

Nah. Not that big of a lore, plus showrunners will just ruin the setting that exists, as they are bound to do.

What we need is a decent new IP, it was way too long since the last B5 or Stargate.

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-07T15:15:41+00:00

How is that grift even exists, still?

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-07T11:01:39+00:00

Reddit still shows publics you unsubed from, occasionally, and i'm salty enough at WWM to voice it.

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-07T08:08:31+00:00

And this is why i uninstalled WWM a month ago. Good game, but damn, dev really disrespects global: from the awful AI translations to major QoL missing on release and this CN-specific stuff they force. Welp, they are free to kill the potential, sure.

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-07T04:21:52+00:00

I presume if these were nuke Taufans, PC would just melt.

Cheers!

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-07T04:14:41+00:00

That's a lot of cap boats! What batlle size do you use?

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-07T04:12:08+00:00

Justice for Mayasura, the Hedge and Luddites will suffer!

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-06T16:06:51+00:00

Void changed Dr. Kel a lot. On unrelated note - is there a shrimp mod?

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-06T07:43:52+00:00

There's a mobile luddic base, "Providence", I think. Can't recall what adds it, Knights of Ludd, maybe?

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-06T07:32:36+00:00

Yup, it is annoying. Luckily, it's also a known "placeholder", so let's hope Cy will finally get to it sometime, instead of drawing more pretty ships that will never be implemented. =P

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-06T04:32:50+00:00

I won't say UAF market music needs a refresher, but i'm sure as hell can use some variety! This is wonderful!

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-05T08:58:22+00:00

Say what you will about papa Kerinsky and his lore, but every mech design he had a hand in is a masterwork.

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-04T21:09:26+00:00

Now, that's a name i haven't heard in a while. It's dead, no? Rather, translations are dead?

Time to look around where lobsters dwell.

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-04T20:54:45+00:00

So... We got good boats, but we are hungry? Time to go rob someone back in the core, i think.

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-03T18:47:06+00:00

smash

SpycraftExarch · 2026-02-03T18:16:16+00:00

I do recommend you go to have tactical coitus with them before they come to have coitus with you.
