#In Golden Flame

Hello hi yes that's me
||good luck trying to understand it||, bucko
||yes I know I'm stupid you don't have to rub it in
||
don't worry ||I have trouble understanding it even as a GM||
This was inspired by art by Drew Shields who does real cool calliope-esque art and I'm using as heavy reference for the looks of the character :)
Yes
For reference from earlier, this is the sick in golden flame GM setup
Sat directly below a TV
what part of IGF is the Shrek mask for?
Idk about the shrek mask
but that bear must be essential to IGF
Act 3 spoilers ||You don't want to know||
I was about to say "nvm, I figured it out"
session over
(ch1) ||S1GN4L|| lived baby!!
one of the other players tried to ||kill S1GN4L and i was like PLS NO FOR WHY||
đ
yet another timeline where he ||(sadly)|| lives
lyra is going through a lot shes a little murderous right now we just have to wait for character development
we r gonna have to have a Hey Lets Not Murder Everyone We See talk
keep that murder hobo mentality to dnd
oh no no shes just not pulling punches on pirates
not yet at least
shes otherwise good
i enjoy that creature i thought he was silly
our notetaker @reef estuary has reached twenty pages
they literally just finished Denial of Service

at this rate you're gonna cascade
They lived in both my games as well. @balmy obsidian adopted 'em, and they ran away in the other. Mission 7 Spoiler : ||Only to show up working for Steele running his spy network instead||
highlight from the session notes
daisy is my character evie's nhp wife slash co pilot slash vtuber creature that siits off to the sidie and reads the chat
also the notes for this part
My player just got 3 nhps in one session, they are having a time
Yippie! The nerd lives
WHAT
i am an insane note taker and i am appauled lmfao
i checked i'm at 7 and we're just ending ch2...
came across this though, i forgot i wrote this lmao. named removed because of spoilers :3
does a "wolpertinger" ting wolpers?
My players are starting Chapter 4, and will be heading to ||Boltzman ||to continue their investigation. One of my players just got hold of an NHP (Didymos-class, named Hugin & Munin). When they ||breach the lower mine, I presume that they will freak out like Siren does||. Any suggestions on how to do that in a suitably creepy way?
it werfs nebels
I'm concerned about not removing the NHP's utility while still keeping that mood alive...
maybe bring that topic to #909574961931362365
that's a channel for GMs so we don't have to censor our posts more then an scp article
didymos and creepy go hand in hand imo
i feel like just to be able to do that you gotta peer behind the veil
Agreed. The player decided that they manifested as two ravens that like to sit on the shoulders of his pilot seat. I loved the idea of each of them being a sort of Shoulder Angel\Demon thing for the two possible timelines they manifest.
#LichBeLichin
thats so cool omg
i am still tempted to toss the bunpoleon aside just to get a didymos nhp buddy, but i think serenity is very HA pilled rn
i have a lot of time to think about it though!
It splitten eargan and louden boomer
how long did it take the party to apprehend him
neo-teutonic noises
4 rounds to win the sitrep, ||the score was drastically in the players favor to the point where the remaining two rounds would not have mattered||, all but one enemy was able to retreat. ||S1GN4L is neither dead or captured, and depending on how the game goes I will likely reinsert him into the plot||
I am terrified, and my session recap doc is almost at 200 pages
she basically types every word I or the other players say
I could likely direct an IGF screenplay by the end of this campaign
and you're only at DoS and I'm starting act 2. (though tbf I'm also missing notes on the first 16 sessions out of 45)
when your players own a stenography keyboard
It took you 45 sessions to get into act 2 huh... We're gonna be in ours for a while
We're 20 sessions in and just now ending chapter 2
ok why am I the slowest GM here??
I thought 45 was a bit slow lmao, I spent four sessions just on post act 1 narrative
If it's a race to see who's the slowest, I won't lose.âșïž
Someone stole the blink charges
Who could that have been ...
Again, 2 hour sessions with 6 players at times. And 2 of those players together essentially take an entire session doing their bits
We've shown that the party WILL argue about cowboy hats for an hour
ok but those are my favorite parts
i really dont mind the speed if we're having fun and coming with cool and funny shit
I'm 26 sessions in, about to start mission 4 next session
Not really wanting to race, but we've had 15 sessions and are currently in about the last quarter of mission1
For reference, we play in text chat
Yeah, me neither. I think there's only been like 2 points where going too slow has actually annoyed me. Which is a really good track record considering lol
Its the journey not the destination
I don't think total session count has any real positive or negative to it since some groups could finish off quite quickly if they are very objective focused and less rp inclined
We are cringe nae nae rp babies
My favorite sessions are the ones where we don't engage with the objective at all and just chill
Calliope is a dope ass setting to just exist in
I would find it funny to one day hear about the IGF speed run party strat presented like a YouTuber going, "okay guys, we are back to in golden flame with another speed run..."
That's for the 2nd playthrough
||Millstone Gaming||
Yeah I just ran one of my favorite game nights where 75% of the game was in character arguing over if Coffee cake is a cake or not
Serenity being gaslit that fantasy creatures just exist elsewhere in the galaxy as pets is unironically an important part of her character now
But at least that was AFTER ||we finished talking to Loki and nyambose; the whole party saved her life essentially and then started arguing about cowboy hats like damn y'all give it a sec|| ch2 send in the clowns spoiler
I do like max and I's ability to riff about fake movies and music that exists in Calliope, it's always pretty funny
Atom's obsession with old timey propaganda films was my favorite part of that character
you could justify anything
I think some of my all time favorite rp bits from that first campaign was
"Bun ears being yanked so Char pulls a gun on a team mate."
"Discussing the possible intelligence of vent crabs while it was armed with a screwdriver trying to stab people."
"You're staring at my tail? Proceeded with, "sorry I'm gay"
One of our players was so delirious from his covid vaccine and cough syrup that he lost it and started talking about how he NEEDS to protect serenity and we all decided that it was 100% in character
I also find it incredibly funny that in lancer servers I play Charlotte in people always get the notion to get modded like she is. I never endorse this but it's funny it's happened so much that it's in the double digits now.
that moment was absolutely wild cuz it really did match up way more in character than out of it xD
When I first read the field guide our GM handed out to us and heard the intro to the first mission, I knew I would be in for a ride. "Welp, just another day in hell!" The daily struggle to get by with what little you have, the constant danger you are exposed to, and yet... Humanity finds a way. We adapt. We create. And even in the darkest hours, we find a bit of comfort within the chaotic ocean
dude was having a cough-syrup-induced breakdown and we're all clapping
Serenity having to comfort him was hilarious she was so confused that the most stoic uncle of the group was losing it
If August falls we all fall that guy is like the team's glue
We're a team and no matter the odds, we stick together. Reminds me of the engraving on Fritz's arm: Viam inveniam aut faciam (Latin for "I will find a way or create one")
Guilty as charged I am working on a campaign / setting that has a Lead main NPC as a Bunny mod woman inspired by you and b0ster lilith
I love my team 
No way! Oh you got to tell me about this setting!
Oh man this is making my day, day off work, learn about this, talk igf plans and I get to meet a co-author of IGF for dinner today. Bun doing binky hops
Nah the second playthrough I'm not gonna do speedrunning I'm doing a cultist playthrough 
Tentative title is "Lost on Arrival", setting is an isolated system that exists in blinkspace, colonized by a lost fleet of IPS-N that got lost during their transfer of their shipyards from Cradle to Carina in the 3000s. So the system has been isolated for over 2000 years. Basically an idea of "What happens to IPS-N without the constraints of ThirdComm"
Leo! time for your hoistiees
"Welp, just another day in hell!" And now look at us, SRT Leviathans are a respected name across Calliope and little beyond it, Hell's Gate is self sufficient to the point they are fixing parks and green spaces and we have Union IOU in our pocket for a rainy day.
"Fuck it we ball", "fuck it we prosper" more like, until Matsci gets the baseball bat to humble us 
Its a work in progress, but I hope to make something as fleshed out as Calliope and IGF. Bursting with life and flavor at every corner
Everything we do, we do in the hopes that one day Jerry will get a day off
It was so good
May I simply make a personal request that the bunny lady run a small community shelter and/or orphange. Peak mom vibes and a helpful hand to the community
She's going to be a defacto revolutionary leader, fighting againt the oppression of a religiously capitalistic crushing oligarchy... who is now runs orphanage and shelter in her life. 100% fits
to be fair, Char would have beef with a crushing oligarchy that corrupts the good of religion and private goods and services be independent markets. Let small buisnesses thrive you corpro. Now get me the good book so the saints can see this smack down followed by spanish profanities
I all have to is leave an open emotional woodchipper nearby, with a sign that says "please don't jump inâ
-# Oh hey who left this character development machine unnatended
-# Don't mind if I do
character development machine.....................
I love having darkest dungeon mechanics in my IGF to see if PCs become worse or the best versions of themselves
Here we go lmao
The warning sign on my emotional woodchipper broke off when Calamity Havok's player dove in head first in the second session.
This is what serenity went through (and me irl) and I'm really happy with how she changed when she came out on the other side
No longer edgy burn out baby; she is learning to appreciate the good she is doing and embracing her captain/Intel role
Fritz is still
but at least he knows by now that he can rely on his team if he should fall (as in, he f**ks up, they pick him back up). Still a mess, but a bit less so
Tbh it just wasn't vibing with the party and my mental state at the time was just rubbing off in a way I'm not really happy with; but I do like the character development and it leans closer to what I wanted from the character to begin with
I hope one of my players does have some character growth and introspection.
IGF is not the campaign to play a man who only speaks fluent violence
REMINDS ME OF VICK MY FRIEND MY BUDDY VICK
to this day he is still a prick but he's learning to be kinder and less violent
(vick is @crystal axle's pc)
Tldr (ch1-ch2 spoilers) ||she experienced mass death first hand in the first combat of the session; before she's only done defense/Intel operations and along with getting nuked for two structures it made her very shaken. At the same time she was confronted with the morality of her black and white views of pirates and how she saw them as just bad people. Turns out, on the inside we're all the same! Literally and figuratively. At the same time this changed her views on calamity and saw her for who she really was, someone who was lost just like serenity was. Through that and becoming very close to dating (everyone thinks they're dating and I'm not sure if either serenity or calamity fully accept that they probably should lmao) and her party helping her through that she came out on the other side for the better. In chapter 2 she has been much more lively and open and is learning that the job requires you to take some people out- but she focuses more on the tactical side of it where she shines and has shown herself as a competent squad leader and analyst. Excited to see where she goes finishing up ch2 and going into ch3 :3||
souvick is this but platonic
That type of development we love to see
this is me irl
jen hurry up i need to put my phone in airplane mode!
She also saved calamity's life during her intro (she is an ER surgeon) and the nurse considered pulling her life support, and for a moment so did serenity since she thought she was responsible for the current attack. Boy oh boy am I not happy about that in and out of character and finally telling calamity that is gonna be rough emotionally
IM SORRY
IM AT WORK
god damn
Serenity/Calamity started in an edgy and confontrational place. And im glad it's tapered off, but it's still something im proud of so far
(airplane mode engaged)
I see you're falling for big airplane's ploy
Yeah I'm not happy about it and that whole edgy serenity arc wasn't something I really wanted from the character but I still think it's fun and interesting how it worked out in the end
that day particularly was one of the worst of my life so I do get some leeway for being so edgy and gloomy
the power of friendship will prevail
I love my fwens and party and all of y'all :3
I love hearing about other parties it sustains me during the days where I am not playing lancer
we just played yesterday and now begins another long two weeks
Same
Especially during our hiatus
Everyone is ahead of us tho 
Lamcer tomorrow
lamcer soon...
"Na? Wo brennst denn?"
neat
highlights?
meanwhile in our group he kept slipping past my grapple attempts
Es ist da!
My brain is telling me Elanor airplane mode is her pfp whipping their tail around to float and hover
ive been slowly learning
Whenever I look at a Genghis or my own mech "Wicker Man" I can't help but hear the voice lines of the Starcraft 2 firebat... the german dub to be specific https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_eFdmB4BKMw

here u are
spoilers obviously of whatever part of the game we are currently on (currently halfway through chapter 1)
"super cool sexy notes" 
I just noticed she even included all my basic enemy callsigns excellent
highly indepth
I've been doing sorta like short recaps of each session for my group (at least before we got to ch2 and Bullet started having what I think is extreme performance anxiety) but these notes make mine look amateurish
Very cool notes, thank you

i mostly do this bcs i have the long term memory of a fish and like to remember everything that happened
ive been told its also useful for the gm
It's good food 
Leo kinda became our notetaker by retelling events from Leviathan's adventures here like a bard or something lol
They're not written down on any file anywhere though maybe I should do that 
(airplane mode disengaged)
The Eleonor has landed
Augh the tragedy 
hehehe
ok yeah these notes are great I love it
The only notes that matter: serenity's first day on the icebreaker. The top is the end of session 7 lol
Serenity's pov in her notes is always like: super thought out and well spoken or wtf is happening this is some Looney toons shit
@errant vault A howlsona I commissioned because my group are furries
(Evelina might become a unicorn, but I'm unsure)
Uh give me asec
Okay the funniest possible thing is if she still somehow doesn't believe that wolves are real
Discord username kylynazur, @kylynazur.bsky.social
you know i am feeling it
"But Howl you are a literal wolf"
"no"
I've yet to have that conversation, but if Evelina's a unicorn...
yeah this is perfect
She might treat it like a dragon would treat their sona
"yeah, I'm a wolf, but you know the archaeological record doesn't show real wolves, just people's OCs. Like those protogens."
genuinely like "yeah in a few places you might see a wolf but they are engineered based on mythological record"
All wolves are GMOs, this is known
"i wish wolves where real like how horses arn't"
seriously, though, what if people genetically engineered dragons or protogens just because they could, and they became the dominant fauna on their planets
I mean with dragons yeah I'd say so lol
You created a bigger dinosaur that can fly and breathe fire, I think no ecosystem could handle that
But because they'd be so dominant they probably wouldn't be seen that often because the ecosystem couldn't feed a bunch of them
Sorry I'm an ecology nerd 
predator overfeeds and dies off
oof, rip dragons
the 20 or so dragons per planet who can survive
still, they win over our hearts
I mean on earth I think they'd do fine where megafauna is, but it's an alien planet who TF knows
one of my characters has a megafauna planet in her backstory! (She's a kinda SSC genetic pincushion - working with an experimental mod based off of the planets' fauna's distributed nervous systems. Each of her organs and muscles is vaguely sentient independently, which jacks up her situational awareness and reaction times and precision movement. Was meant as a rat, but might turn into a mammoth mouse now that we have them.)
and pain threshhold, there's a list I made
Well people wear Dragon Costumes and get mods to look like dragons, whatâs so unbelievable about looking like a wolf?
The difference is that dragons are real
If youjwere to genetically engineer a dragon, they probably wouldnât be able to fly if they were big and dangerous, and theyâd probably be like Discworld Dragons if they could fly
Some ideas on how to build on this:
You always keep moving. You're capable of holding your body still, but this requires focus. (Less stimming, more constant objective focus) Sleepwalking is just a fact of life.
Concussions are bad, but nowhere near as bad in the moment, as all your parts are still thinking perfectly fine. Pain and the mental lockdown it causes, is similarly isolated to your head and the affected body part, although a taser, for instance, will take you down the same way.
Your reaction time is impeccable, in an instinctive way. The fur on the back of your neck can literally tell your legs to drop even before it has to touch your mind, and then your arms are already deciding to help you spring back up after the shot is fired.
Perhaps your senses are stronger - touch especially, to a point of touch sensitivity. Perhaps certain sensations are soothing while others are aversive.
Maybe you're stronger too, but in an overexertion way. When your arms decide to take one for the team and push harder than they should.
An organic orochi swarm....
As a young bat, went to a science museum on a vacation, where there was an exhibit about how dinosaurs could have too slow reaction times at their extremities because they were so large. Popped back for this character, on a planet that has a different way of solving the problem.
That's a crazy theory lmfao
yeah i don't know if it's actually accurate, but it floated up???
it is very not accurate
Right to left:
- The original Kraken
- Centurion, a player in xenguin's (Calamity Havok) game
- @shell bison the resident bnuy
- One (1) me
And just so you know I'm passing all this on to Calamity's player
aww yeah
there will certainly be more soon :3
I look nearly identical and I get that a lot too, so I started telling them I was the original Jesus. I think I'm slowly convincing people. give it a shot
Sounds like how I take notes at work. I keep them in text files and write them with Notepad++. I write down inside those files when I had added notes, separate dates from each other etc. If a project goes on for long enough, Notepad++'s autocomplete feature surprises me from time to time
Same file at a later date
The bnnuy is full of wisdom ( I think it's the glasses)
-# probably the glasses
It's funny when all I have to associate people online is profile pic and name and it's like "omg, that person isn't just their profile pic"
You telling me you arent a grapefruit sized frog being aggressively pet
My lawyer told me not to answer this comment
I can't believe youve done this
I mean, you can't see it in the photo because jacket and selfie, but I was wearing Kanaya's shirt at the time. You wouldn't be wrong to just see me as my pfp
that is a dope jacket by the way
Thanks! The designer is Morning Witch, I have... too many things from her.
You ARE the Sunzi messiah

(ch4) ||"The pillows are people."|| - @balmy obsidian
AND I WAS RIGHT
I have a friend that almost looks like you without the beard
Huh, wild
thats agent floppy ears, best not to question it
I might have to make a text document for this session's ntes because I fear it's gonna go over the character limits a couple of times 
Leo about to drop a Barbarossa-sized notepad in this chat
I forgot an entire section and still am missing about a third and I'm still nearing page four help
dear god
Ok I probably missed a bunch of details and stuff but also this is already 5 pages long because the session ran for around 6 hours 
**Spoiler for Chapter 4 **no clicky, bad

!! SPOILERS FOR MISSION 4 !! THE MECH BAY - Session starts as the team goes into the mech garage - The moment we get there Léo panics, dives back behind the door and tells everyone to get back - He points at a mining rig in bay number 4 that reality seems to be glitching around - It is deeply un...
I'll give you this with spoilers removed because it was funny
- There is [relevant item] locked away behind a puzzle for 3rd graders that the team is entirely stumped by
- The players have to roll checks to find the solution because they canât figure it out while Matsci (GM) is giggling uncontrollably
- Once the solution is revealed Quil (player & character) audibly goes âOh fuck youâ
And right at the end of that session, (chapter 4 spoilers) ||with the giant pillar as a monument to sin, with that which should be dead rising up to defend it||, Fritz, once again, just lights up a cigarette and thinks to himself "I'm not getting paid enough for this shit..." and puts on some rock 'n' roll music ||probably "Highway to Hell" by AC/DC||
okay, but what sort of puzzle was it tho
||ADD THEM TOGETHER, WHAT'S THAT SSSSSSPELL?||
||It was a case of "Count the items in those two rooms, add them together, the answer is number 1 then number 2 then number 1 and 2 added together"

Look whatever you do don't give people towers of hanoi
Fucking hate towers of Hanoi
It's not interesting just slow
I have no idea what towers of Hanoi is
easy google. it's a puzzle mainly used to explain the powers of recursion to programmers
ancient game one of the oldest games of humanity you have probably played it and it takes a long time to win the standard configuration is 3 posts with 4 levels
it's also a trivially solved game, even more simple than tic tac toe in terms of game theory
it is utterly trivial however it always takes time
because every layer exponentially increases the time to solve
make the players solve the Towers of Hanoi during combat, carrying plates in their mechs
As soon as you include "it's for programmers" I know I'd never get that shit
It's literally a baby game. rings can never go on top of rings that are smaller, and they have to be moved one at a time. You start with the stack in one position, and need to move it to one of the other two.
With a little bit of playing you can discover that there's really only two choices at any given state. One that will lead to the stack ending up on each of the two other positions. which one you choose can be expressed mathematically: it takes 2^n -1 moves. For even n, move the first ring/disk to the wrong peg/position, for odd n, move the first ring/disk to the target peg/position.
this shit is peak
can't wait to hear what happens to you guys next
Next session is in three weeks, withdrawal is going to get bad
I do like the ||"We're not even in the character development part of the asteroid yet"|| note at the end
ah... you too
i've had the lancer itch so bad i want to run wallflower but everyone in my party has scheduling conflicts đ
You'll live...probably
yeah but I won't! what am i supposed to do if I don't get to hear about SRT Leviathan? /j
I wanted to come back and prepare for this week's IGF, but it seems like the commissions are never finished...đ
Didn't realise we were that popular here
i remember playing mass effect for the first time and getting stuck on the towers of hanoi puzzle for so long
GOOD GOD
celebrities really
we stan srt leviathan. making a fancam as we speak
I, as a GM, can now say I've finished a mission of Lancer.
đ
Everyone be fan's of Quil combat live streams. Be stealing Swich's fan!
Maybe Quil shouldn't release the footage of what we're currently facing to the public...
lynk begged the team streamer to not stream the Character Development Asteroid exploration
(ch4) ||We can't even stream if we wanted to, we were hit by a blinkvoid
||
||The only contact we have is going back outside, using a flare and hoping to RA that Siren is still there to see it||
Funniest thing as a viewer of said livestream was during Mission 3 ||the Bad Star encounter|| where he got jammed, so lost all comms and systems, livestream goes dead, then Lap hacks into his livestream so everyone can still see what's going on, and the moment Quil's systems are back, ||there's just a huge explosion as Bad Star goes into an irreversible reactor meltdown, taking the Goliath with them, another boom from a precision strike from Siren, another one as the hornet detonates|| and just an "aaaaand time!" from Fritz. ||Bad Star and its compatriots lasted 30 seconds, less than Bad Star's solo match against Howl||
||The encounter lasted 2 turns||
I think only ones to see it will be Hell's Gate management and ||Union Intel since Aisaan is recording all this on their Adjutant comp/con||.
Understandably so
Lancer streams... of In Golden Flame? Where?
There's probably people streaming their games, but mostly this is talking about in game characters actually streaming stuff on the omninet 
Ohhh, alright sorry. Love you In Golden Flames! I promise I'll play with you someday!
The worst thing about being an srt leviathan fan is that I can't read any of it 
Maybe I can scroll hard enough in our group chat that I can find stuff from earlier missions
They ran out of green raspberry energy drinks....
that's what Chapter 4 is all about
find the last stash of recalled and expired green raspberry energy drinks
We are getting energy drinks :) Everything is fine :)
||green and purple||
Sorry, we only have Sprunt and one tablet to go with it labeled "mystery flavor"
Hey wtf, spoil that shit
For you Meow, I found SRT Leviathan back at LL0 when we were just the HGSRT 
Also we had a few rumors per characters written I'll go fetch them
found it
this layout looks sick
@worthy root yo your layout looks sick
YO
I was considering something like this for when I eventually run wallflower
Love Fritz's chunky lad
That's Alter Kamerad, unfortunately destroyed during the last battle of Mission 1
What was left of it (Basically just the head) was made into a shrine to the fallen somewhere in the mech bay of Hell's gate iirc
Rip Alter Kamerad and Third Pillar Promises.

Third pillar Promise first of its name was also destroyed at the end of mission 1, the scavenged parts were used to build TPP 1.2 Invader variant, which was a Chomolungma instead of an Everest, to Matsci's horror (ch2 spoiler) ||it made the Sunbird fight very fast and also very funny||
Fritz took a new mech for mission 2, Richter, the executioner Everest, up until mission 3
Chomo supremacy
Choomy sweep
Having seen it in action I think 3 chomos is actually the scariest thing to go up against
I'm fairly sure it's a violation of at least one of the three pillars 
Last combat were extremely out gunned and outclassed but we just turned everyone into a burning ping pong ball and it wasn't a problem
I think the game is going to get harder once we switch off the chomos lol
You might like this as well, old muse logs we made a while while back (contains minior spoilers for the first fight of Mission 1)
I will read later đ©”
You'll be fine I believe in
What's your team's name I forgot

Jerry's Dream Team
I believe in Jerry's Dream Team

any gms that want to share narrative maps they have used for the Circuit Breaker mission? Specifically for the Graveyard shift beat 20. I have some possible ones to use from Czepuka but wondering about suggestions
You might have more success asking in the GM thread
It's full of spoilers for players so players should not click but for GMs everything should be fine
love it thanks!
i wrote another theme for another one of my party's PCs 
also their player made this cute animation!
(spoilers for Chapter 1)
Otter is an extremely curious NHP planetary scientist and shuttle pilot from the Second Wave era whose ship was stranded in orbit of Chameleon 300 years ago
he was revived by ||the paracausal energy from the Tachyon's explosion||, which also made his shuttle able to transform into a mech
now he's trying to adapt to modern Calliope and maybe figure out more about ||what happened on the Tachyon||
Oh thatâs adorable <3
Don't worry about it
It's called a lemniscus, if you must know
I must not but I like to

Léo is already crying after seeing the thing
I wanna know what's next so bad
i am VERY curious on what it'll look for your team!!
also wwnb is Possibly returning from Hiatus Hell soonâŠâŠâŠ chapter 5 time at long lastâŠâŠâŠ
scheduling's been hard with like four different timezones
yeap
It's a miracle you managed to make it work in the first place god damn
fingers crossed it comes back
it sounds like a great team
at first it was just opposite sides of the globe and nocturnality
then someone moved to study abroad
and that complicated things
ah
I'll bother you to know how it went down in your team when we're through with it because I am also very curious
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA YES
FINALLY I CAN INFODUMP ABOUT LYNK'S PERSPECTIVE OF CH4
ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS TO DO
Don't get too excited we just reached the first encounter and next session is still 17 days away 
Though I guess you could tell me about what happened before that
One more week until we can play again...
I'm suffering from blorbo withdrawal
8 days until my party (ch1 spoiler) ||enters the Tachyon||
I am kicking my feet smiling ear to ear writing my session prep
My brain is now full of Lynk lore 
YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
This was one of the peaks of the campaign so far for us
It was so fucking cool
-# me patiently waiting for Jerry's dream team to reach that moment during mission 3...
don't spoil them on mission three's ||"funny" moment||
I shall say nothing
Yeah I have name dropped chapter 4 and basically nothingg more
||My circuit pirate player is excited and scared||
This is dope.
Seems Lynk's gotta get to the bottom of this.
I'm going to cry I bet
I've only had one cry moment thus far. Awfully low considering
Well, it's going to depend on a few things
But to put it into perspective, I was full on ugly crying for the first time ever playing TTRPGs 
I've rarely been a player but sometimes things happen with my players that makes me tear up or cry lmao
So my blorbo being in it will make me cry
Very excited to hear about it 
Excited to be put in the emotional blender
Serenity is already a trauma surgeon with too much trauma. Any more and she will combust
in our group's case it also seems to be a gm tumbling machine
yeah... it does that to me too
Real footage of SRT Leviathan.
Not pictured: the GM sitting of the to side, confused on how the players constructed a washing machine, in a cave, with a box of scrap metal
Character development finds a way
As opposed to my Sunday group, who dodge character development like a 6 Agility Atlas dodges shots from an impaired breacher.
Big fan of our silly streamer character "it's not time for my character development yet" primo isa
-# I need to make background characters for Léo to give Matsci extra hammers
had a lot of fun describing that. safe-for-you spoilertag: ||when i realized what lynk's room looked like and what callahan's color scheme was i had like an !!!!!!!!!! epiphany and HAD to call it out in-scene||
nd then seraph liked it enough to draw the image of it so. :3
YOU HAVE UNO!!!!
nah I have the oldest everest known to man
YOU HAVE UNO, IT CAME WITH YOUR EVEREST
bnuuy!

Wait, does my group having successfully managed to protect Mr. Bun, the rabbit plush of free Custom Paint Job, for the entire duration of Operation Solstice Rain count for the coincidence nexus or is that too apocryphal?
ah yes, the sheavy mounting Leviathan Heavy Assault Cannon Lancaster
Where there's a will, there's a way!
Covering the whole spectrum of players in IGF here
Or rather, the complimentary opposites
How to sum up the first session of IGF i just ran:
When I say there was like, a solid 20 minute bit about teaching each other to play UNO. I am not joking.
HEY WAIT A SECOND I WAS BEATEN TO THE POST
this is tragic
outsped by my own players
ill never recover
c:<
love this layout :o
speed of bun
something somehing bunzi blink charges

Tech Attack: Fragment Signal
Installs Uno on enemy mech.

Wait fuck I just noticed Jermajesty 
Jerma Jesty
Jerry with Jerma's voice and personality.
Get Jerry some onion rings
Cursed thought I shared somewhere else: Impact Dynamics Synthetic Steeke (the steak is uncomfortably greasy)
-# in other words, thinking about what food products roll out off ID considering that they are the system's largest food supplier
No fibbin, Charlotte used an Extra Ration to feed Jerry during the meeting
We got him some coffee after mission 3 and he just ate it during the mission 4 briefing 
...AS IN THE COFFEE BEANS????
Our Jerry makes coffee sludge with what he believes is instant coffee. It makes me sick thinking about it lmao
Yummy
waiting for one day to be called into Jerry's office to help deal with the fact that a new civilization has formed in his coffee cup
They have a colony on one of his ties
And thus the srt was born
...in the mug? 
And then sent back in time and space to their respective ""birthplaces"" to later become the SRT pilots they were always meant to be? 
No, Jerry simply tasked 3-5 people to clean his mug
Oh thank god
And whilst they were cleaning ask "Anyway, how did the printer break"
And all 3-5 of them freeze as the room goes dark and the only lighting is underlighting Jerry as he stares at the party
We are born of the mug, made men by the mug. Fear the old mug, Jerry
I'm tired
With no sound but a gentle rumbling and a hot tap cleaning a mug
Maybe you should eat some coffee sludge 
Shoveling the gruel with his open palm, he's too busy to find a spoon
Our Jerry could never be this confrontational, I think he would die
Serenity was telling him to be assertive which is already a low bar
That's one hell of an opening to his character. I like this angle
Had an instructor who was kinda like that. Constant tired expression too
Feed Jerry a proper meal
We tried helping him with paperwork but just got in the way lmao
I remember overhearing him debug a program with a coworker, and in a his usual calm tone stated the following: "You are incredible at searching for stuff but absolute shit at finding it. Thank god you weren't born a squirrel or you would've starved to death during winter!"
I miss my instructor. Wonderful guy
...what if someone with a background in station administration was one of the members of the SRT?
Just an idea
Has anyone ever done this in IGF?
My Jerry keeps a spare coffee mug, filled with coffee sludge, inside his desk drawer
PLEASE PROTECT HIM
he pulled it out when the party were having a discussion in his office and he needed the extra kick
the mug is seasoned like a cast iron, cleaning it would remove the part that actually makes coffee keep him awake (unknown alien bacteria)
The alien bacteria is just microscopic ventcrabs
The silence in that room was palpable
Kombucha coffee
Yes, actually.
One of my Players in my Sunday game made a character described as âRixa is basically a born-again Christian with all the self awareness of a missionary going to Ethiopiaâ.
After the Events of Act 1, she basically felt she could do more good helping Jerry out managing the station than she could flinging herself into combat
With the way serenity is going rn if something happens to Zinfandel she may take the commander position, but then I'd have to say bye to my blorbo 
At this point I fear the black mold in Jerry's office air filters is the only thing keeping him alive
It's coffee syrup from Rhode Island
It was your job to replace the air filters, so if there is any black mold in them it's your fault.
And risk Jerry's symbiotic relationship with the mold?!
The patient needs mouse bites black mold to live!
is RE8 happening on hell's gate? ||Again??!?||
Almost certainly not, I'm just joking about Jerry's incredibly unhealthy lifestyle
Mmrmrhrrhmmrmrmrhrmrmrhmrmmrh
for igf redux i will play (RE8) heisenberg
that BITCH capella
white witch with a kinetic hammer is good enough flairing, yeah?
Resident Evil 8 Heisenberg?!?!?!??!
JESSE!! WE NEED TO EVIL THE RESIDENT
Idk I've never played resident evil
Heisenberg is kind of like if Nic Cage played a mad engineer, though Heisenberg is very focused on his goals iirc
Also he does have magnet powers, that's his big thing
and a big hammer! love my eastern european nick cage
The only things you need to remember about chris and léon is punch boulder and no thanks bro
-# the bloodline
@balmy obsidian you didnât tell me we had fans. :p
We've got fans 
How else do you think Hell's Gate's ventilation system works?
IN GOLDEN FLAME SPOILERS
Me and my stupid fucking son
Abso-fucking-lutely
Fucking incomprehensible
we really need a vex seal of approval
SAME SPOILERS APPLY HERE I SWEAR DO NOT LOOK IF YOU'RE IN A CAMPAIGN
we got the second set of questions today!
||
In the mirror is reflected the kind of person you could have been. Who do you see?
The mirror holds an ogre. Arms and chest bulked out by cybernetics, fine silk suit covering it all in a hand-tailored package. A fedora, pulled low to conceal eyes glowing in an etheral green. Gentle, refined, tamed.
There's a old-timey telephone on the mahogany desk in front of him, a direct line to the voice of god. The Tonton Macoute listen to it, the Milieu does, the Parrains do, even the CaĂŻd. Even Gaspard Sarasses himself - the Red Hand of God. Twenty-seven years in the Tonton Macoute before he deposed of the CaĂŻd that brought him into this world and took his place.
Grand Veymont was one of the most dangerous stations in the Rim now. Thanks to Sarasses and his cadre of chassis jockeys, nobody fucked with the Milieu anymore.
This is who the monster in the mirror could have become.
A CaĂŻd. A mob boss. A sovereign.
Alone.
||
||
In the mirror is reflected the kind of person you wish you were. Who do you see?
The mirror holds an ogre, and he holds someone else with him. A shining blue holographic form, braids and a puffy jacket, held close in a bear-hug.
And that's everything in the mirror. No ambitions, no grand goals.
Gaspard Sarasses and his daughter, safe and sound.
Together.
||
crying
at some point i need to prepare for the act 4 spooky questions myself...
Slight spoilers if you don't know that ch2 character, but my friend did a defense of your choice here.
You got the idea, haha
IVE GOT THE OLDEST MECHSBOX KNOWN TO MAN!
NO YOU DONT I BOUGHT MINE ON DAY ONE YOU POPTART
For some context the big Sal pilot spend his downtime doing random side quests and chores on hells hate helping everyone with things like washing windows or small handyman repairs and everyone loves him, and the Pegasus pilot is a Streamer with Ipswich
and serenity has anxiety, hope that explanation helped
Yeah but we all know that lol
Me and you are active enough in here that I figured most people would get our mechs jokes lol
hello, just a question about the catastrophe beam
I don't see anything about using it 1/mission like other exotics of this type
does this mean a player can just keep using it if they decide heat and reactor stress is for babies?
Seems like it
thats how ive run it
It is powerful, but does ask for a heavy cost
very cool
2/3rds of my table would send their core to the shadowrealm if they had this
thanks guys
and thats why they get one
I did one too!
another doctor piloting a mech 
@hearty whale Wanna drop yours in here too?
Ye okay
Haha ignore the second one we are very stable
And can be trusted with customised special operations spec combat chassis
oh i am so tempted to make this for wwnb
I'm gonna try that hol up
Oh hey, I'm in this one!
Hi Ludwig hello
Guess I need to join this trend đ
Leviathan second pic fucks
Never gonna get over how good the tokens are that Leo(?) made
I made LITD and TPP, Snicker made SunEater and APM, Wicker Man was made by Random
and am quite proud of it 
I got help for TPP also, The cranes were custom by snicker
Damn the whole team putting in the work
For the love of the game
You all managed to find a consistent art style too, it's impressive
We did? 
I definitely think so!
it never really crossed my mind I guess... How do you figure? 
I don't know if I can really explain it but the smoothness is similar, the colors are similar, it just looks they were made by a single artist or with a unified vision
And I'm impressed multiple of you managed to make so many good tokens lol I've been struggling with kitbashing
I also struggle a lot don't worry about it
Yours is very cool though, I think you can be proud of it
YEP!
MFW You make a cool token and it gets used
chat we got our first player death in my igf campaign
END OF MISSION 1 SPOILERS: they got wrecked by ||Andros||, their wreck was blown up by a burst 2 explosion from another player, and then was left on the ||Tachyon|| where they met their end.
is she dead for good đ„ș
jen, two diff characters
if so then thats a hell of a coincidence given that both talk about mission 1 and the exact scenario
which part, the Ill Have What He Was Having or joking that Steeles got a small Steel
ah no i misread the ||capella|| thing, ignore me
jen confused Caitlin Leander to be the character that died in pixel's game
my players are finally ll1 yay
hehehe, bunny has her blink charges >:)
Oh man Caitlyn and Elizabeth would get along swimmingly
We love womenâs wrongs
Remember kids, If you're still able to move your mech, and can still feel things other than Heat, you havent overcharged enough!
I think our last combat at the end of ch2 me and @west phoenix both had the overcharge county at like 1d6+4 lol
Overcharge and immediately stress lol
listen man my current record for Caitlins shenanigans (genghis mk 1) was in a single round of combat, in which she
if we're sharing, one of our players made this
-Preperatory AGNI protocol
-Plasma thrower, stressed, Explosive vents, furiosa explosion
-Overcharge, stress, explosive vents, furiosa explosion
-Annihilator, stress, explosive vents, furiosa explosion
-AGNI clear, explosive vents
Reactor meltdown?
Immense
because thats the power of german engineering Harrison Engineering
fun fact she was originally gonna be a BALOR pilot
but like
đ„
yknow
remember kids: Why worship a Golden Flame when instead, you can become a white one!
overcharge until your reactor runs liquid, coward
for those curious that averages out to, assuming everything hit and enemies failed
4d6+2 energy, 1d3+2 energy, 16 burn, 8 heat
:]
actually a bit more bc of nukecav but yknow
this is how you know my girlie was meant to be an HA pilot
stress is just a resource, and lord knows i'm already stressin
handshake I also ran a mk. 1 down to 1 stress, 2 structure, and then also had my Agni cascade three times in a row in the same combat
to give names to the memes
Kyle 'Fixit' Renard - Kidd "Inspiration from Insanity" ch2 spoilers ||because of the laser||
Serenity "Daffodil" Archerberg - Sunzi " HĂŒpf Auf, Wolpertinger!"
Primo "Reaper" Isa - Pegasus "Napoleon at Waterloo" (or Loo)
Elizabeth "Killstar" Ventra & copilot NHP daughter, Daisy - Monarch "Beautiful yet Terrifying"
August "Sisyphus" Veckes - Big Sal, currently unnamed
wanted to give a proper introduction to the dream team :3
look at them!! my beautiful children
Dream Team let's goooo
That Pegasus has a concerning amount of Âż%:?GUN:GUN
Gun 
so uh one of my players made this during the ||anti-capital|| fight
oh no
3/5 players got blown up
(one of them forgot their annihilator did 2 heat to self, overcharged then fired it, and proceeded to Explode)
their luck during this i stg
i was just this for 90% of the scene
Yeah, that fight tends to do that

unfortunately for them, our team's hacker got yoinked by a cataphract to the other end of the map (this cataphract in particular in our campaign has been a recurring character with a murder-suicide-flavored grudge) and this left the hornet free to be A Fucking Problemâąïž and oh god did it become a problem
said hacker by the end of the battle ended up with:
- 2 separate explosive meltdowns thrown at them, one being successful
- 3 wolfhound missiles targeting them
- 2 far-too-close encounters with an incoming strut
- god knows how many smaller missile impacts
- their fire-based trauma from a previous battle evolving into a Definitely Not Healthy feeling of being impossible to kill
Compensating for the lack of gun on the rest of the team
The only real dps in the party because our monarch spends their turns hacking
OOOOOH (sorry I'm late to this)
thank you!
I sure am a fan
That made me crack up way too much thank you
this was made by Primo's player. She's a god damn genius
The Vex meme format is one of the most powerful propaganda pieces in all of the lancer fandom.
A true pillar of the community
I can't not agree considering snicker made this piece of art at some point
lets gooo Latinas!!
Latina Certified
I hope Shakira is still making music in 5016u
Now I'm imagining The Bajamesa blasting Shakira in the ship and all the Matriarchs are just vibing
Oh bun updates I guess
- I got to guest Star in someone else's game. I was then told one party member through lich shenanigans is a time clone, one is dealing Post NHP depression and witness realization, one is very much smiling through the pain and another pc is just regular depression.
Bun proceeded to just give them her contacts and get them drinks to have a night to not think about it.
Alt timeline, Bun has been allowed the blink charges. I can be trusted with them. I promise. 
They are simply HA grenades, Jerry. Not an incantation. I promise, senor Masters
Teleport them to the pearly gates
You should have seen me on sunday teleport a boss into mines
Excited to annoy Eleonor when we finally have an LL2 combat
Hehe, to the blink anchor mine field c:
@prime terrace kitbashed it
Impact Dynamics is in the public player section, I think ID existing is safe
Yeah that
Pixel is amazing
Maids token is also gonna get an update since she's been working on her own and it kicks arse
i love the implication of the fire scouring off the paint on the back/feet of the mech
really clever lil' touch
Trying to make it for my SRT
After some truly aweful aweful luck last night, I managed to pull off one of my best turns ever in the Stoteinbeker.
Move boost 12 spaces, skirmish with my Shield, Crit. Crit reloads the Cannibal.
Overcharge, shoot the Cannibal, both barrels, accuracy stacking to remove difficulty, Roland Chamber for extra spice
22 damage
Triple structure the Elite Commander Sniper in 1 turn
"Xbox, save the last ten seconds"
Triple?
Triple
4 from the shirld, 5 from the reload, 22 from the blast
And 2 already tagged on from incidental fire earlier
All told.... 33 damage
Cannibal Raleigh is peak cinema
Beautiful. If I wanted one done (I assume these can be used for foundry) how would I go about contacting you?
you kinda just dm me
another theme for one of my campaign's PCs! (art by one of my players)
Lunete, or Luna for short, was (spoilers for my players) ||orphaned at age 8 during the Strikebreak of '04, adopted by Mistress Elske, and|| raised by the Knights of the Dark Core
she worked as the Knights' equipment manager for a while, but when she heard that the Hell's Gate SRT, the slayers of Andros Capella, needed volunteers, she knew this was her chance to finally have her own legendary adventure
she collects antique weapons and is a massive fangirl of Marika Wren and Lin Zhihao (Chapter 2 spoilers -- ||a certain mech-sized handgun awaits her arrival upon the Icebreaker...||)
Im making memes for my igf players
Im refusing to show Frost because they use AI art and i despise it. I swear i'll get them to ACTUALLY draw her eventually. Until then no artwork.
Due to the nature of the character I wont be sending the rest of the meme.
Soon we will have more news of Jerry's Dream Team 
Soon we will have news of how the mission goes down

Please I need more IGF stories
It's gonna be great believe you me 
full of evil thoughts
I heard Edipus is a real motherfucker.
I need to make more of these memes
Just a few more days.... 
For which I am eternally grateful.
I should write up a detailed synopsis of what we've been through this far
Please yes i'm so hungry
I shall cook up a feast for you
6 months of making fun of me
Longer
Thank you so much 
I started off so nice too, and then she blew me up. Now I must make her suffer
Teammate being forcefully abducted by a cataphract?
Sounds like you need a big sal.
âFlash anchor: just say âno.â â
for Act 2, we're playing Campaign for North Africa
You say this but next to wallflower the game I want to run the most is technophobia
Which is the closest we're gonna get to call of Cthulhu with mechs
fuck yeah!!
We've been bullied by so many cataphracts 2 of us are now specing into anti cataphract frames
I will NOT be abducted again
How did you get bullied by cataphracts with 3 chooms 
speeeeed
Eleonor what black magic did you use
the first one was inexperience
Matsci has been unable to use cataphracts ever
Understandable
these people have forced my hand. I am running entirely artillery and controllers back at them
we're gonna turn lancer into 4x4km tank warfare game
Inb4 Serenity asks a militia member to come on the next op and they pilot a bombard
Artilery is kind of our weakness currently as well isn't it
"well im within the encounter budget so... skissue"
12 grunts you say?
One of our chooms turned it into a nuclear bomb that charged me first combat. And yes, I will continue to complain about it
Eleonor, we have a CQB Viceroy, a SIZE 3 Grabber Tortuga and a melee amber phantom, and a close range hackey boy
my condolences
you think range can stop te unhinged swarm tactics of the SRT Star Fire Team?
holy hell just take pot shots!
Never heard the name star fire before, it kicks ass
behold, my unstoppable tactics: Range 10
I've seen these crazies 1d6+4 overcharge more times than a HA sherman
I will simply teleport anyone close to our artillery away
Plus spotter house guard sal is gonna go crazy with our artillery, especially the monarch
yeaaaaa even with full arty, a Sal is gonna make me shoot every shot with 3-5 difficulties
And if you do hit I can just say no :)
You deserve this. Idk why, but you do
Im just trying to have a good timing killing my friends

here comes my antagonistic GM arc
After last combat I thought you already entered it. I've never seen you want us dead that hard before lmao
But I guess Kyle and primo got the worst of it
If you don't go all out it's not an actual (ch2) ||Murder on the dancefloor||
Simply BCL the missile into the enemy problem solved
Oh yeah that's what we did wasn't it
Yeah lol
woe rebake be upon ye
If you have a choom in the team it's pretty much certain it's gonna happen
We had 3
I was too busy clearing out chaff because no one else would
Happened in our team too (though it took some trial and error on my part) 
You did very well at that
With my humble 1d3+1 weapon
better than my 1d3 weapon
that fight was hillarious tho. Jenny would break formation to not get smacked with Hades missilies and then 2 of yall would move up adjacent again
and then proceed to get smacked with a hades missile
It's a stack marker you have to stack to spread the damage out between everyone
Suddenly : bombards
I was literally trying to use infiltrator for it's intended purpose and they kept shoving me back into the fight
I used infiltrator for one fight since I've had it. I'm not gonna miss it lol
I had infiltrator for our very first mission before we switched to IGF and I also didn't use it. How am I supposed to hide when there are so many enemies that want to be BCL'd 
I was planning on going dusk wing at first so I was rocking ace and infiltrator
Ace came in clutch a lot, especially last combat, but infiltrator never did
Though even with 2 accuracies with ace and the sal shield I STILL failed all of my agility saves
Serenity is canonically just not agile
You forget that ||she managed to climb the fence and slide through a small opening to deepest fairyland when it was after hours|| ch2 spoilers
Glad I didn't go for it because I would have avoided probably the most important combat for her narratively, but it was very cool
or died
oh trust me, our hacker would've loved to, had they not been uh. Otherwise Engaged.
So when's the wedding?
uhhh
Oooop
This is why you have multiple hackers lol
never, considering the other party vaporized themselves in a muder-suicide attempt
yea
damn
Glad I got to make you feel stupid in combat instead of me feeling stupid for doing something risky
our current party consists of:
- 2 melee blenders (an amber phantom and an enkidu)
- 1 hacker (goblin)
- 1 mid-backline support (turret and deployable focused gilgamesh)
- 1 sniper/support (swallowtail)
well, all soon-to-be, seein as they're still LL1
Teleporting that one squad member with the objective across the entire map made my, and serenity's, brain swell 3 times that day
Especially since I used Eleonor's NPC against her >:3
Canonically richboy is the reason serenity is sunzi pilled- seeing that in action and her creating that plan on the fly was like a "oh I can just do this all the time with this license can't I"
That was a massive brain move
I wanna do that one day with Celestial chains..
just make your gm deafen so they can't cheat :)
but what if we don't make the GM deafen, strategize in front of them and then goad them like "Go on, try to stop us" 
I wanna make a proper Vex meme for our team but I also don't have the patience to scour through the entirety of the LANCER rulebook screenshotting specific words
They are giving us all the informations after all, might as well return the courtesy you see
The search function is goated
wait can I just ctrl-f it
yes
am I stupid
no
thank you, Neco Arc Chaos
now have any of you seen an arsonist on a noble quest to escape the wrath of the I.R.S?
its actually not that bad, i just used compcon minus the jerry thing. it does look like shit but if you want it to look good it takes too long
not for specific frame traits iirc, you have to check those under the dropdown if you use compcon
i liked seeing the awe in eleonor as she realized what i just did
i straight up did a pushes up glasses and explains my master plan once she got into position
ch2 send in the clowns ||i waited until the giant got close to use and me and another chomo bcl'd it on to the ground as we waited for a party member, who was invisible thanks to loki and i, to peek around a corner. because the mirage ONLY needs line of sight to teleport and the giant had such a low e defense and system stat once loki had line of sight we teleported fixit like nearly 20 hexes to the other side of the battlefield and got out of there||
and once we get into LL2 combat i can just do that with hanchor 
I am safe from this because i doubt any of my players will try and kick me out of my own house so I can't overhear them scheming
also another thing I've realized is that GMS_GENERIC_BAR seems to be the defacto hangout spot for most of the other SRTs, but I don't think ours has done that - partially because my fixation on a particularly stupid YTP of the Yakuza 1 english dub resulted in us manifesting into existence a bar formerly owned by Andros Capella, which is now colliqually known as "That Bar Over There", but I have no idea if that's a seperate entity from GMS_GENERIC_BAR or not
wow i really thought that bar over there was canon xD
If enough people manifest it into existence, then it can be
(I don't know if Andros canonically used to be a bar owner either)
he used to hang out of a specific bar for years as the hell hounds grew
the ytp in question if anyone was curious

That title is not kidding about the movie part
it's a compilation of all of the parts
what do you-
BY THE PILLARS
Leviathans usually seem to end up in their hangar or the Happy Noodle I've noticed. Not that Fritz doesn't drown his paracausal-related sorrows at the GMS_G_B but our resident nerds like the HORUS hangout, and Sam and Quil seem more food-oriented than drink, doesn't help that they're both fairly resistant.
Idk why but Half Life VR AI fits perfectly with the vibes of In Golden Flame
it can also be watched seperately in seperate parts if you wish to trick your friends!
Do'nt you worry, Quil and Léo are going to go to the GMS_G_B soon enough 
I have plans
idk if we really have a hang out spot, not a consistent one
public Bar<T>() : GMS {}
one of our characters, august, got introduced in the GMS_Generic_Bar by challenging people to punch him for money and everyone swarmed to him to get a chance to
literally two of the other PCs met him by one, punching him to no effect, and two, throwing a bottle and completely missing (his callsign was crackshot after that)
magesynth you MUST let us know how that goes
pls
I am vibrating with anticipation
thursday evening it happens
knowing my group they like to take their time so I doubt they will get to ||A Face To A Name||
but who knows
i think its also a great cliffhanger. thats what we did
we were also nervous as hell and i think thats the first time we actually like locked in and acted like a squad. straight up breaching and clearing and peeking corners
and it was the only time my personalization came into play and it still didn't do anything :)
I've asked this before in #909574961931362365, but didn't get a reply - does anyone have a map asset/token for ||the Spire in Pressure Point/The Swarm|| in Mission 4? I know I've seen one somewhere before, but can't find it anywhere.
(If you have an answer, please ping me - I don't know when exactly I'll be able to check this channel.)
check the pins in here for the IGF resources sheet. In there, Al has some top tier maps for all of Act 1 and parts of Act 2
@fossil lion yeah this here
Al's maps are epic, yeah, but that's not what I'm looking for. I'm specifically trying to find just that one map object, not the entire map.
Like a specific tile in the map?
yeah
a specific tile for ||the giant spire of corpses and wrecked mechs||
Oh wait I may know what youâre talking about- dunno where it is tho :(
Adaâs folders are a good place to check, she made a lot of miscellaneous stuff
LOOK GORDON, ROPES
YOU CAN USE THESE TO CL
HELP ME GORDON
This is purely coincidence but i found out i was trans while watching HL:VRAI
purely coincidence
I am now wondering how that happened
I might be able to isolate that
Why do you need it?
Damn I wonder why (joke)
i'm planning on running ||Pressure Point later today
in terms of choosing a map for it/The Swarm, i'm mixing up the format and adapting to the movable-terrain gimmick and avoiding the problem of adapting stuff from hex grids by building the base map myself. that said, that means i need to be able to place the terrain on top of that base map. i can find stuff for misc. rocks and mining equipment fine, but the spire is giving me trouble||
oh shit, same thing happened to meâŠ
The coincidence nexus has grown far too powerfulâŠ
perfect! thank you so much
