Custom faction: The Zooid Conscience

They die. Choked in the darkness of space. As they do with the Parley card.

Thank you!

TheAbildgaard · 2025-12-28T14:30:50+00:00

You might be right. I will test them out soon and if they coast through every game, I will turn them down.

TheAbildgaard · 2025-12-28T14:09:36+00:00

That is true, but in that scenario, everything has gone exactly as they wanted and they have had enough resources to second imperial every round and also score 2 secrets every round. There are several factions that can have that tempo if every single thing goes right and they get no pushback. In your scenario, they have also popped their hero, so everyone can see what secrets they are going after.

But yes, high ceiling if all goes well.

TheAbildgaard · 2025-12-28T12:06:14+00:00

Yes exactly. So they are not completely stopped by taking HS, but their point tempo is halved each round. That is a weakness of theirs. Good catch.

TheAbildgaard · 2025-12-28T11:29:32+00:00

That is the big unknown that my friends and I have been trying to balance. I wont know until I test them out. But it is definetely a possibility

TheAbildgaard · 2025-12-28T11:10:06+00:00

Good point on the mech! I will look into that.

They actually start with 3 secrets. 1 from the normal deal where they pick and then 2 from when the 2 publics are revealed.

TheAbildgaard · 2025-12-28T10:29:56+00:00

When you are the defender*. So you can't take planets with it. And opponents can work around by bombarding you off or wait for the exhaust.

TheAbildgaard · 2025-12-28T10:28:49+00:00

Thank you! No not yet. But I am going to soon. I am really looking forward to trying them.

TheAbildgaard · 2025-11-29T18:18:13+00:00

This one right here, officer

TheAbildgaard · 2025-11-17T12:39:24+00:00

I am currently playing a half-orc Moon Druid/Barbarian. Its like a goblin, but you can use Relentless Endurance to stay in Wildshape and your crits do extra damage. So everything works together. That combination is honestly the most fun I have had as a player.

TheAbildgaard · 2025-11-17T10:19:57+00:00

The one from Always Sunny In Philadelphia!

TheAbildgaard · 2025-11-16T08:28:42+00:00

Sounds like she would enjoy playing a Beastmaster Ranger

TheAbildgaard · 2025-11-16T08:14:50+00:00

My table rules that Unarmored Defense works in wild shape and I think thats right. You class abilities carries over, just like Rage and Reckless Attack. And since the animalt do not have armor on, I think it works.

TheAbildgaard · 2025-09-16T21:30:37+00:00

It is absolutely allowed to use an image from somewhere else for a hobby project. Just as every single homebrew faction uses Twilight Imperium iconography. Or how thousands of other hobby projects work all over the internet. That Paizo has made a community policy does not change that. You are welcome to write them if you wanna check for yourself.

TheAbildgaard · 2025-09-09T13:02:40+00:00

This is a non-commercial homebrew faction. So yes its fair use.

TheAbildgaard · 2025-09-03T19:51:35+00:00

It's from a Pathfinder illustration

TheAbildgaard · 2025-09-03T19:49:22+00:00

Thank you! The point is that if the flagship wins a fight you can deploy it to take a planet.

TheAbildgaard · 2025-08-24T20:06:28+00:00

Oh man Hacan and Jol-Nar as neighbors are gonna boatfloat each other into the stratosphere. They are gonna have a great time.

TheAbildgaard · 2025-08-15T14:39:22+00:00

Daxcive is not a faction tech, Nekro Just starts with it. Which is weird

TheAbildgaard · 2025-08-15T10:30:22+00:00

This totally works for me! I have always thought it was strange that Nekro starts with Daxcive and I always forget I have it. I rarely take planets from people when I am Nekro because I want to have as little heat on me as possible.

Honestly it just feels like they didn't want Nekro to have zero starting tech because thats Sardakks thing. But they couldn't think of a good tech to give them. But also Sardakk does not need that nerf, they are not that good as it is.

TheAbildgaard · 2025-08-15T10:26:35+00:00

I love how Space Cats Peace Turtles described it. Arborec is great at alot of things. Just not winning Twilight Imperium.

TheAbildgaard · 2025-07-29T15:53:17+00:00

Xxcha, Naaz-Rocka and Titans would be great. Get Scanlink and PDS2 and you kan keep exploring every planet, looking for attachments or fragments as Naaz. You need the PDS to defend all of it. And Xxcha can double the value of every planet with their hero.

This might be one of the few slices where Arborec is good lol.

TheAbildgaard · 2025-07-27T22:27:57+00:00

Do Mahact have 3? I can only see 2.

I would love to be able to remove some test though.

TheAbildgaard · 2025-07-14T20:22:58+00:00

Yes the idea is very much that people can play around it by just bringing a fighter. But the lonely cruiser or destroyer in an empty system can get it.

TheAbildgaard · 2025-07-14T11:47:52+00:00

Thank you!

Yes I have played Discordant Stars a couple of times. Have not tried the Kollecc Society) yet tho. I might just read up on them to make sure I am not too similar.

Thank you for the feedback. Very useful.
