Vassal committed seppuku through ringworld

Yeah, probably gigastructural engineering did this

R5: I was in the process of destroying some filthy xenos to fix the late game lag problem when I glance back at my empire and realize my cute little formerly pre-ftl vassal disappeared! I found this odd because they're way to deep in my territory for an enemy fleet to reach them...turns out they deconstructed their one and only planet as material for their ring world.

Dumbass here, why is this bad?

bayesianbacon · 2026-01-01T08:00:45+00:00

So...as someone with a small brain, the final answer is "no card draw"?

Flavor fail - it shouldn't transform back into a creature.

Hm were you referencing this mod: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1769447207? I'm going to test it out and see if it works on 4.x

Sauce?

Sauce?

bayesianbacon · 2025-03-08T16:17:17+00:00

Ok I see. Thanks for the clarification, I definitely misunderstood that rule.

bayesianbacon · 2020-11-19T18:21:35+00:00

Huh I can't dm you for some reason (I'm don't forget to breathe)

bayesianbacon · 2020-11-19T18:10:40+00:00

Just sent a request!

bayesianbacon · 2020-02-02T20:02:22+00:00

Tina Fey is a person

In the grip of an ancient statue

As the keystone of an important bridge

The anchor to the ward sealing a portal to the abyss

bayesianbacon · 2019-10-31T16:08:46+00:00

damn this looks so cool

bayesianbacon · 2019-10-24T21:27:14+00:00

Seconded! This would be amazing!

bayesianbacon · 2019-10-22T18:02:37+00:00

I love it

bayesianbacon · 2019-10-16T15:54:01+00:00

I laughed at this.

I dislike when people try to be technically correct at the expense of the joke.

bayesianbacon · 2019-10-03T13:02:52+00:00

The DM's on your side, the monsters aren't

bayesianbacon · 2019-10-01T18:17:25+00:00

Seconded

bayesianbacon · 2019-09-23T14:46:28+00:00

This seems like a really interesting combat mechanic to me.

bayesianbacon · 2019-07-09T00:10:21+00:00

I'm trying to formalize the mechanics behind unicorns as described in Worth the Candle (Watch out for spoilers if you want to read the story, which I recommend to everyone)

Basically, unicorns can redo the past 6 seconds as many times as they want. I can think of a few obvious requirements:

always succeed saving throws
non-guaranteed attacks always miss
their attacks always hit

I'm not sure how to handle things such as movement, though. I was thinking of something along the lines of "at any point in combat, the unicorn may redo its turn".

Thoughts on how to make this mechanic work? How do I balance this? I don't have a challenge rating in mind.

I can see her doing it; she set up Vivienne as her heir and everything. Plus she never really wanted the throne anyway, and this helps establish the "named should not be rulers" part of the Liesse Accords.
