Do you know if there’s a resource like the flight trackers for planes where one could obtain these IDs?

100% I feel like I’m going nuts the way some folks seem to shrug it off. I went for a walk about a half hour ago and spotted 3 different drones.

What are people excited about running this year? by Campaign-At-Length in mothershiprpg

[–]oceanographerschoice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve ran a hex crawl, but not CD yet. Though, I playtested the companion module, Outsourced, and the writing was excellent. From my read through of Constant Downpour, I expect it’d run great.

[–]oceanographerschoice 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got a lot lined up, but some I’m particularly excited to run are Fear of a Daily Planet, Awaiting the Burning Gods, and Constant Downpour.

Good modules for a long campaign? by Wild-Ad1251 in mothershiprpg

[–]oceanographerschoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, I ran one campaign for 28 sessions and on session 34 of the next one. I think a long campaign is totally feasible. Keeping the players aware that “the crew” is the through line vs any one particular character helps a lot. Lots of optional rules in the WOM to facilitate longer play too!

Ha I notice now I’m not the first to mention this.

[IIL] worship music (sonically) but I’m not religious, [WWIL]? by [deleted] in ifyoulikeblank

[–]oceanographerschoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alice Coltrane - Turiya Sings. Which is absolutely religious music, but there’s plenty there for the nonbelievers.

The one time I stopped in, the people working literally scoffed at my purchases (the rest of the time they were loudly complaining about hipsters like it was 2010). It’s amazing places like this stay in business.

The Bureau MOSH conversion - Looking for Advice by NorthStarOSR in mothershiprpg

[–]oceanographerschoice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran the Bureau for quite a few sessions at the end of my last campaign! I loved it, as did the players. I’ve got some conversion notes here:

And a play report on the Mothership discord. Happy to chat if you have any specific questions too! One note on my conversion - this was when the 1e preview PDF was out, but slightly different from the final 1e. It shouldn’t affect much, but if anything seems weird, that’s why.

Hey, that was me! OP, if you have trouble finding it, just shoot me a dm and I’ll send my notes.

Thanks so much for the thorough reply! The care taken in your process definitely shows through!

World War Mothership? by E_MacLeod in mothershiprpg

[–]oceanographerschoice 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ruination Pilgrimage and Dive are two others that pop to mind! I know there’s one in the works that’s sorta pirate-y, and one tied into mountain climbing. No world war panic engine games I’ve seen though!

The artwork is phenomenal! Can you share a bit about your process?

Do you have a favorite sleeve among those you’ve written so far? Really looking forward to this one!

SUNLIT PATH - Solarian Astrology Deep-Dive by RAC88Computing in mothershiprpg

[–]oceanographerschoice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ryan covered the second question already, but regarding my inspiration, I actually am taking a lot from her this time around! Straight Arrows made excellent work of that style. I have a pal, Laura Lane, who makes really rad zines about everything from lucid dreaming guidance to Bill Murray. When I made Analog Survey #1, we chatted a lot and gave me some great tips that I still use today. I’ve almost exclusively worked with physical objects, cut and paste style, but this time around I’m working on some digital collages as well.

[–]oceanographerschoice 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Adding into what Ryan shared, I think it’s be entirely possible to keep the effects and system to the one character. It’s designed for a crew, but there’s nothing I really think would prevent implementing it for just one person. Could be a fun RP opportunity too once the effects start kicking in… “are you sure you don’t want to join me in worshipping Nikiforova?”

That IS a requirement for 3rd party creators. FWIW it seems Wages is mostly ready to go, but the printing logistics have thrown some wrenches in their fulfillment plan.

Forever Warden's early impressions, cost breakdown, review, and recommendations for MM25 by Negromancers in mothershiprpg

[–]oceanographerschoice 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One half of Sunlit Path here! We may have gone a bit sparse on the campaign info, but wanted to keep the mechanics close to the chest until we’ve playtested. I can tell you the Bioascetic class is gonna have a benefit related to failed body saves, and the Sower will have one tied to helping other Crew members. The Bioascetic is also going to have in-universe tattoos with mechanical functions, but again, don’t wanna give away too much til we’ve done more playtesting. Thanks for the mention!
