00:48:33 Devastator: yeah, but generic mook.
00:53:03 ER: hopefully comprehension is possible despite talking like suloy
01:00:15 Devastator: so we need to research a conventional drive and then build one?
01:00:23 Devastator: that should take two turns and get us off..'
01:00:26 Devastator: or is that too slow?
01:09:31 ER: ah, the gland should work for getting out of the gravity well.
01:12:35 Devastator: mm, but if it's vulnerable, there might be a fight in spess.
01:12:59 Devastator: probably best to have a drive that can work in a fight and isn't an irreplaceable source of FTL.
01:14:22 Devastator: I'll just make vague suggestions.
01:15:42 ER: the whole vibe of the game is "vaguely empirical" anyways~
01:16:01 Devastator: I'll suggest antigrav later.
01:16:09 Devastator: besides, we can probably get more biomass from eating Europa.

01:26:01 ER: sadly while I came up with some combat rules I have no simulation for traversing a solar system using an alcuberre drive
01:27:18 Devastator: we can probably get out of the gravity well just by making ourselves into a space elevator.
01:27:50 ER: That's probably not easier than rocketing unless there's already an elevator in place.
01:28:10 ER: don't think your bones are solid enough to make a tower that tall
01:29:26 ER: someone else keep track of the tech tree please
01:29:29 Devastator: Dangit,
NJW's aborted open-world high powered save the universe game would have been fun.
01:29:43 Devastator: but nobody who wanted to play open world games joined it.
01:30:26 Devastator: yeah. That was disappointing.
01:32:27 Devastator: had a free hand at 'MG is fleshhorror', which would have been fun.

06:15:25 syv: Comforting an idiot child right now. This time one in Florida.
06:15:51 syv: I don't know *why* there's so many of these kids.
06:17:15 syv: One of the kids who used to be active in that Spiderman guild, a bit over a year ago, rejoined the group.
06:17:25 syv: ...Pretty much just so he could complain about his new GF.
06:17:53 syv: Who vapes, and got him to start trying it too.
06:18:37 syv: And he's an *idiot* who is being whiney and _super_ judgemental while having less mastery of English than most of the trilingual kids, to boot.
06:19:12 syv: I'm not enough of a sociopath to ignore him and not try to give some comfort and advice, but it feels somewhat annoying.
06:19:41 syv: ...And I know it seems like I joined just to complain, but I'd actually been meaning to join tonight and only just remembered >.>
06:23:23 syv: ...I should make an action for Quest.
06:23:42 Devastator: pfft, there's no hurry with that.
06:24:43 syv: I saw the email when I woke up, but didn't post.
06:24:52 syv: I know what to do, just need to not forget to send.
06:31:59 Devastator: rolling to hold on and rolling to attack. I'll give you an attack bonus if you hold on, and it seems like a sufficiently vigorous situation to improve berzerker to +2.
06:32:08 Devastator: ie, Xin is having to work for this.
06:37:38 Devastator: yeah. I think I'll judge the bonus as starting at +1, but it'll go up a point each turn the scale escalates.
06:38:36 syv: I should play into it more.
06:38:58 syv: That's a good mechanic. I'm naturally too cautious, especially when I have such resistance from a game like this.
06:39:20 Devastator: yeah. Neither of you is fragile.
06:41:19 Devastator: I'm not sure if this creature should be more or less fragile, but eh.
06:44:02 Devastator: Xin's next aquisition, a set of wolf rollerskates.
06:44:26 Devastator: could also fight naked.
06:44:31 Devastator: that'd up the danger level.
06:45:31 Devastator: I'd start berzerker higher..
06:46:11 syv: Would it give an actual penalty to survivability?
06:46:21 syv: But Xin can't fight without his armor.
06:46:26 syv: It locks his head in place :v
06:46:36 Devastator: yeah, I'd reduce the wound check bonus.
06:49:33 Devastator: I'm fine with suggesting that naked humans suffer a penalty to wound checks.

19:07:10 Devastator: Of course, metacommentary bias hits. Complaining about complaining! ;-p
19:19:07 Devastator: I'm also very amused at a video in 2020 saying that DF is the latest thing.
19:19:48 Devastator: I've only played it.. 15 years ago now.
