I stand ready, although I doubt there's anything I can do you can't do 87 times better.

*(I do have other ambitions. I'm not a *total loser*. Of course, those ambitions include such lofty goals as "finish painting my Eldar army" so...)

** I had a weird hybrid one-armed Bruticus with Blast Off as one arm, and Blot and Nautilator as legs, but he doesn't count, obviously.

I also had the 2001 revamp, Ruination, but he doesn't count either, and I've since lost Rollbar/Swindle anyway.

I am 45ish. My ambition*, before I vanish into cosmic dust, is to own a complete Bruticus**.

I missed out on the various revamps of the toys over the years but just a few weeks ago they released a new Vortex, with the others to follow in 2026. Maybe I will have a complete Bruticus before I'm 50...

Hello, I am 45ish and the game has been out for four months, and only the other day did I realise that BLUE PRINCE is a pun.

Nothing would surprise me, given their bizarre obsession with trans people.

Apparently this is some sort of dog.

Next session (Sunday) we are going to try to use the prisoners to get into the Imperial outpost and steal a ship to get off the planet before it kills us.

We are a Rebellion squad on a diplomatic mission but our squad leader has been killed by the locals, we've picked up some Imperial prisoners, and the planet itself may be alive and probably hostile.

Haven't played SWD6 since 1996ish and it's been great fun playing again. The GM has a tendency to convert adventures from one game to another so I suspect we're actually playing some horror scenario.

I'm two sessions into a SWD6 game with my local group. I keep forgetting to mention it to you!

Remember when Dinobot Sludge was in a coma and had a nightmare about his human girlfriend who ripped the skin off her face to reveal a robot skull and then she laser-eyed him to death?

Kids' comic indeed.

Keep making jokes. Keep making art. Keep making games. Keep up self care. Distract yourself if you need to.

Keep reminding humans what humanity is.

This is part of how you smash fascism.

It reminds me of those excessively pretty Amiga games (usually French) you'd get circa 1993, except even more so.

If it were me, I'd probably go with the latter.

Let the d6s fall as they will, the droid knows everything, but then let that drive the story. The droid isn't as old as the lost civilisation, so who programmed that data in? Where did they get the information? Etc.

They have uncovered a bunch of information that no one else knew but 50% of it is no longer true or valid, because it has been a long time...

The problem with the conspyramid is that it doesn't explain itself or how to use it. You can get there with a bit of work but then it reveals itself as the sort of spidergram everyone does anyway. 🀷

"Battle reports are rigged so the new model/unit/army wins."

I think this one may be an open secret in the "wrestling is fake" (spoilers) sense.

Apparently it's there in black and white in the shareholder reports, but no one seems to be able to find the relevant bit of the report when asked. Funny that.

Well said, er, written. I've been playing since 1985 (and I hope to play until I'm 85) and I've never been in any danger of "gitting gud".
