+++XENO QUOTE OF THE DAY+++

“Never in all my decades of service to the Federation have I encountered such a motley crew of undisciplined louts. I swear by the Sunken Islands they actually -enjoy- the risk and chaos of their bloody profession. I find it hard to believe they held the line with the Second Legion at Saratoga, but my men aren’t the sort who exaggerate their reports. See that they are paid in full, Lieutenant. And then get them out of my sight.” -General Kirx of the Drax Republican Guard

”*blurgh*”

You stare at your treacherous reflection with bloodshot eyes, the next wave of puke subsiding for the moment. You’re not angry at your reflection without good reason, this state of misery you’re currently experiencing is entirely self-inflicted.

”Never again.” A lie. Not the first lie you’ve told yourself, and certainly not the last. In fact, you are fairly certain you tell the same fib towards the end of each and every term of shore-leave. But this time you mean it. Really. Next shore leave you get, you’re going to have a quiet you’re your reflection stares at you doubtingly. “Frag you, I mean it…”

Alright lads and ladettes, I am delighted to see a few of you here already. This vote will remain open for 24 hours, if you want to particpate in chargen please vote in that time frame! Future votes will require you to link back to your initial first vote to be valid (regardless of whether your id has changed). This autism-lite should be reasonable enough to keep the samefag scourge at bay whilst not making it too difficult to participate.

I've missed you beautiful bastards.

I'd love to run a dedicated couple of days to hashing out a character, but the reality is my work commitments make that a very unlikely. That said, I will endevour to always provide an update at a rate of once-per-day around this time each day. If I'm not going to be able to provide an update that day I will let you guys know no later than 22:00 AEST on any given days.

I'll be hanging around in this thread and posting from my phone, happy to answer any questions best I can or even just have a chat. I hope you have all been doing well since we took a break from StV.

>>4627459
I will always be open to write-ins assuming they get popular support, even for chargen. That said, I reserve my QM veto right in extremis.

It feels like Christmas. Glad to have you back Forgotten, you always make good shit. I'm not expecting this quest to be nearly as bright and shiny as Sworn to Valor, but by God, I will do my best to make sure that we don't end with so many "high notes" as BCQ. The only trait that I really want in chargen is strong care for the men. The rest in negotiable, but I will keep arguing no matter how big a faggot i'm being until the end. Even alien members. We may hate aliens(except turtle and plant bros as the only time they fucked us over was unintentionally and they were fucked up for it as well), but I would still like us to care for(if gruffly) our token ayy.

>>Kroll

>>4627706
High stakes gambling will probably cosy us our life.

You can easily be a functional addict. Especially with stimulant addictions.

Meanwhile gambling addicts tend to lose everything *repeatedly*.

At least with being a Junkie, there's the challenge of balancing out your highs and periods of effectiveness with the lows and withdrawl.

Meanwhile gambling is deffo going to be putting our lives in the dice, totally out of our control, which is the worst of ideas.

I was merely pointing out one way it could be dealt with. I can be fine with being an alcoholic, as there are plenty of ways to get or make alcohol. Its more difficult to get certain drugs. Many civilizations of mankind have developed an increased resistance to alcohol, unlike other drugs. Alcohol damage mostly focuses on the liver, which can regrow from just a significant portion. Other drugs can have more spread out damage or damage that is harder to heal.
You make good points, but I like to think that we could manage gambling well enough, though I wouldn't mind the alcoholism. Just so long as we don't become a drug addict.

But that's the point bro. Can you imagine? Picture this:
>We were sent to negotiate with an enemy general for the withdrawal of his troops from a planet constituting a strategic position.
>Be us, leader of the squad.
>Facing the general in his tent.
>He's about to start the negociations
>He starts the negociations by bringing to the table strategic agreements and the signing of commercial treaties on behalf of his employer, very tense scene.
>We cut him off.
>"You know what bro? Let's settle this at cards. I'm betting my life on this pair. If it wins, you get the hell off this planet."
>The guy is genuinely shocked.
>Our mate leans nervously towards us. "Uuuh, captain... this is just a joke right?"

>>4628435

I commend you for picking a high bar to jump over, anon.

>>4628448
I want us to do better then Prince, just not that way. I want more of our people to survive, and without being dead of mind and soul. At least we will have a variety of clients, so we wont be stuck with objective evil guy. We will be in conflicts were we will be the bad guys, but before we die in en explosion, get ripped to pieces or become a monster, I want us to at least left some positive mark. I'm a softie, I know, but you can call it arrogance. If Prince is really in that glorified box and he tells us that we will fail or why care, I want to be able to tell him that "he" failed, we wont, even(especially) if it seems like we will.
I'm probably the only one who feels this way, but as long as I have a vote and a voice, I'll keep being like a conscience: easy to ignore.

Would like to see this reflected in our tactics. Welcome back, Forgotten, you were sorely missed. Hope you're feeling better

>>4628499
Id prefer it if we didnt take that easy way out. Also, the voidborn spooky devil powers has a branch that seemed to specialize in helping the squad. I opposed to walking down that path, but if we do, we are filling that motherfucker out first. And thats only if we choose voidborn.
Also, Prince went down that path and STILL failed. So many friends lost, so many friends ruined. That is how I am probably going to view Prince for the rest of this quest:a powerful,legendary,awe inspiring failure, and I want to exceed him.
>>4628477
Oh, never a "good guy", but if we can take an opportunity to help humanity without to great a cost to the company, I'd want to take it. We arnt knights and we shouldn't pretend to be good guys, but if we can do some good on the side, we could take it. Good will in a galaxy like this is worth its weight gold and is far harder to come by.

>>4628464
The road to Below is paved with good intentions.

Every time Prince - and by extension Anons - pursued greater power, it was always to help his men or the Commpany, directly or indirectly. There was never a pursuit of power for power's sake, but a long slope of treacherous care.

Every lost men made us more willing to use dirty tactics or get spooky powers, so that the next time it wouldn't happen. Even his undying devotion to the Company was born out of the simple desire to keep as many of its men alive as possible.

So be careful if you want to keep your men alive at all costs. Sometimes the most human thing to do is to accept the loss and move on.

But if you can't, there's always the Cyborg/Voidborn combo. From what I've seen it's the best build to support/protect the team.

Just replace your weak flesh with something inhuman and stronger. Consort with weird and probably malicious powers for your men. Become the 2230 Prince.

>>4629035
I reckon we go full power hungry piece of shit, "strongly suggest" upgrades to our troops regardless of religion or wishes, seek profitable contracts, gamble with life a little but always go for the strongest strategies we can come up with to maximize profit and survival (because losing men is costly and bad business)

>>4627439

>>4629036
personally I'd like to veer away from stuff thats too creepy or insidious, like I can get behind everything else but do more Dark religion stuff for pragmatic or brutal reasons just feels like a retread of Prince.

>>4629060
Yeah I mean I don't want to play Prince again for sure, but also Prince wasn't power hungry. He sacrificed himself for his men (his soul, etc). Given that this universe obviously has tech/bio mods as a thing and merc armies as something in common usage I could see us offering better missions/rewards to those who are willing to undergo improvements to increase the profit factor for each mission.

That being said it's not something I'm married to, I'm happy to see what we all as a group vote for and play in the direction the group decides. STV had some great screaming but when we all had similar goals in mind we crushed shit as well

Your Krieger Paycheque suffers a 10% deduction to feed your gambling addiction. Each time this occurs you have a chance to break even, lose more, gain some cred or win big.

The flutter in your stomach as the die bounce across the holo-board, the knot of anxiousness as the results roll up after you pull the lever, the satisfaction of calling a bluff right and the elation of pulling off one of your own with a scrag hand. And the fact that a lot of it wasn’t even your money just made spending all the it easier. You were celebrating your recent promotion, nothing wrong with that. And you were making a lot of money, you could have kissed the disgruntled casino staff that cashed in your winnings.

That’s all well and good, you should have called it a night there. But instead of calling it quits you found yourself sitting across from a dour collection of expressionless high rollers at 4AM in a smoky backroom. Your old squaddies had all gone to bed or passed out in a club somewhere by then, but even if they were conscious they couldn’t have pried you away from that table if they tried. The bigger the pot the greater the thrill, and the amount of creds piled on that table would have been enough to…

…To what? Buy a ship? Set up your Company Standby Reserve retirement fund? You’d be lying to yourself, again, if you said you’d even given much thought as to what to spend your winnings on.

Win big or lose big, it’s all in the game. Unfortunately, last night was definitely lose big.

Maybe you have a problem. You’ve heard people talk about the horrors of combat, folks reduced to gibbering wrecks after their first Drop. The chaos of the engagement, the focus on the mission. You don’t mind it. You’ve picked chunks of dead squadmates from your visor and slept like a baby in your foxhole a few short hours later.

No, it’s the quiet that gets to you. The drugs, the drink, the gambling, the sex… it’s all just noise to fill the silence. Fun sure, but just noise all the same. The bedsheets shuffle behind you as your latest distraction from last night stirs.

”Creds are on the table.” You gesture aimlessly to where you imagine the bedside table might be. Some young buck station engineer you picked up in the bar. Not bad-looking, a little handsy but you go in for that sort of thing.

”I… I’m not some kind of whore, lady.” He seems affronted at the suggestion, but his eyes do pause on the pile of Creds.

”You don’t need the Creds?” You raise an eyebrow at him through the mirror, he’s prettier than your usual type. Soft. Not Krieger material. ”What are they paying human engineers on a remote station like this?”

He mutters an amount, eyes downcast, and you whistle. Sometimes it’s easy to forget that most humans aren’t living on Krieger payrates. ”Look, think of it this way. I’m not paying for the sex, I’m paying for you to leave.”

The pretty-boy needs no further encouragement, pausing only to put on his pants and grab the last of your creds. Void Mother knows he’s probably eager to get out of here now that the booze and horniness has worn off, no matter how good the sex was. You’re no average refugee vagrant, or even one of the domesticated humans from those civilized colonies now under xenos rule. You’re from the arse end of nowhere.

Your bed partner definitely noticed…

I know some anons really dig the mechanics side of things so I'll drop these here too. Your origin skill tree gets one free ability and a cheaper way of upgrading that skill tree.

You can only ever unlock TWO skill trees, maxing out both will unlock a unique (expensive) ascension skill.

I would like to spec into genemods for some Batman stealth shennanigans with the Predator tree, if we're talking tech either Bionics or Advanced hardware, if Voidborne I think Prescience, and if we go for the Exile school either way of the gun or the Four warriors tree.

Each skill tree has 3 separate branches. Each branch has 4 perks to enhance that branch skill (you can pick perks in any order or ignore them altogether).

Your will start with one free branch skill (no perks) according to your origin.

If you max out one of them and roll a crit fail for their relevant tests, would it be reduced from Crit Fail to Regular fail due to both the starting and ending perks?

Physical Roll entails feats of strength, agility or reflexes that -might- include physical confrontations. It will not directly benefit Close Encounters (which includes very short range firefights) as a matter of course, but in certain instances it might.

Hm. Clever bugger. I suppose if you've maxed it out I can't argue with that.

>>4629113
Upon re-reading it, I think it makes sense that a Critfail is reduced to a Double Fail and remains there rather than being reduced again to a regular fail. I think that's the correct interpretation of what I've written, and it was certainly my intention at least.

Very good though, you've already got my worriedly checking my rules for the equivalent of Prince's gamebreaking endgame abilities....

Don't worry, thats probably the only truly game breaking perk there. But there are some interesting combinations especially when you combine trees.

For example just the inital perk from the Four Warrior Winds is a nice tree to dip for the +1 Strategem. Just in case, maybe also add a condition so you can't spam the same strategem twice in the same round?

I'd argue that Rite of Passage is just as broken - all new squadmates start at Comrade is *huge* given the new rules of combat.

But yeah, synergy will play a big part in the second tree skill chosen (and obviously in the same tree branches).

So far, the most obvious seem Cyborg/Genemod (focus on Bionics and Physique, you can get up to +50 AV, 2 Health levels, various resistances, regeneration and CC re-rolls), Genemod/Exile (high focus on Stratagems to take advantage of the high number of re-rolls + Stratagems available) and Cyborg/Voidborn (Drone/Aura/Prescience to make the squad as hard to kill as possible)

Oh man, all these skill trees and perks are really cool, it's hard to decide. I've mostly chosen Voidborn for the origin itself.

>>4629132
Completely forgot about Rite of Passage.

I wonder how large our team will be though, because its an average of about +2DC per squad member if everyone starts at Comrade. Excluding the Camaradince bonus.

IIRC it was 10 in total: MC, Corporal, Signaller, Medic, Gunner, Sapper and 4 Troopers.

Which equates to 2 Stratagems and Orders per turn, the first Skill of every other class and a whole +73 to combat (+7 MC, +7 Corporal, +4 Sig., +4 Medic, +12 Gunner, +7 Sapper, +8 each Trooper).

Now you see why I love Genemod.

>>4629150
Believe me, I get you. My favorite future build would be a Genemod/Exile who takes advantage of Stratagems, Wetwork and CC.

Compared to how Prince approached things, I think it would lead to a different but equally entertaining experience.

Rite of passage still seems pretty nutty but isn't it only a +32 bonus in a firefight as squaddie provides some starting bonuses

>>4629161
> only a +32 bonus

You speak of it as if it's something minor, ee had Kid killed for a +5 DC bonus, you know :V

But yes, it's a huge bonus modifier to Battlefights (which is how we avoid casualties at the end of the day), more skills for our crewmate and less time spent towards the Battle Brothers status.

Because let's face it, someone will die. It's a matter of when, not if. If we spend time on a squaddie just to see them die, it's a waste of time because we need to build loyalty from scratch.

With Rite of Passage, we cut down on the time necessary and get better troops at the same time.

>>4629158
>>4629161
Just to clarify fellas, Rite of Passage applies to NEW squaddies. You’ll still have to win over those you currently start with before getting the perk.

I'll be honest, I didn't think about the comparison until this actual thread. I was mostly keen on the mechanical benefits but I see what you're saying. Still I think we can avoid becoming Prince 2.0 but I see why you'd want to not even tread down that path

Eh, Prince feels more like a genmoded murder machine than a warlock to me. Yes I remember that his powers came from a fallen god but the way we used it makes him more of a mass murderer rather than the mysterious sixth sense abilities we have here.

>>4629183
The way Voidborn's skills are written makes me think more of "Starship Troopers Intelligence Officer psychic" than full on warlock/sorcerer.

>>4629189
I get that but if more feel than build, yeah Prince could be a superhuman murdermachine but what largely fueled it was dark magic fuckery and I want to diversify from that this time.

>>4629190
I'd pay you that if the unmake line wasn't basically about psychic fire and had Soul leeching and Prescience wasn't all about fate having a quirk called soul bargaining.

regardless of my stance on things, Voidborne was still 2 up from the next closest vote so it may very well be the choice if things don't change.

>>4629172
It's pretty fucking great, not gonna lie. This one I've been planning on the backburner for ages, it is good to see anons as hype for it as I am.

>>4629175
You have assumed an NCO role in a different Krieger unit you served with before. I noticed during my time as a choco (army reserve) that people who got promoted tended to be shifted to different units, the theory was that your fellow diggers wouldn't -really- show you the required respect of your new rank. They've seen you play goon of fortune and have a bush fap with the rest of them like any normal human.

TL;DR Of all the 77th Krieger Platoon, you will only have previous history with the Corporal you select.

>>4629177
>upgrade points
Currency is effectively experience points, completing certain side objectives and faction goals will help boost that total to your Krieger Paycheque at the end of a mission or campaign. You will spend money to buy upgrades, invest in skill boosts and purchase non-regulation equipment.

>if no one dies
Your squad size is currently 10. Black Company regulations dictate that combat effective units should operate in blocks no less than 8 and no more than 12.

>>4629180
I assume you mean replace?
Immediately from the same platoon if the Lieutenant can spare the men, but most often it will be at the end of a mission or campaign when during resupply and payday. I will both present new squaddies to fill the gaps and squaddies from your sister Krieger squads (we can assume they put in for a transfer for one reason or another).

>>4629196
As for the squad itself and upgrades, are these mods (gene/cyber/etc) restricted to ourselves and other established officers or can we purchase cybernetics for example and encourage troopers to upgrade between missions?

>>4629199
Generally they are for yourself and others of your rank or higher, the groundpounders get paid pretty well by human standards but not as good as that sweet officer rate.

But you will notice that certain squaddies will get a unique perk or order at max loyalty rank, so you might see a squaddie from Clayton's Cradle have an ability similar to Alpha Instinct at Battle Brother level, a Voidborn with a perk not dissimilar to Aura or Unmake etc...

I either wanted this or Exile, as long as we dont get voidborn first. If we get it, i'd rather it be second, that is if we dont get exile for the second one instead. Voidborne and Exile seem to better as a second power set, alternatively speaking.
>>4629116
I had a bit of a knee-jerk reaction when I realized that we were playing a woman, not because im against it, but due to the simple fact that a disproportionate number of quests where the MC is a woman have her turning into some variety of sex freak. As long as we dont turn into one of those, im sanguine. Getting a prostitute to celebrate doesnt count, im speaking of having sex with two or three people every two or three threads. I might just have had bad luck in finding those quests, I dont know.
You say that alternatively speaking there is not much difference, but the players themselves may not see it that way.

A) Forgotten isn't a degen QM.

B) House and Dominion has a female MC and it was fine. So does Drowned, and Valen. Arguably three of the better QMs on the board, TSTG, Benthic, and Riz have done FeMCs without any problems.

You worries about this becoming a smut quest are unlikely, it'll probably just be about as smutty as StV without the whining about moral implications.

>>4629463
Hopefully everyone has learned from Prince. Stick your dick in crazy and you get stabbed in the eye. Does that apply here or are we the crazy?

>>4629463
Yeah, I know it was probably just that the ones I can remember seem bigger in my mind. And I wasn't saying that Forgotten would encourage it or something like that, only that anons might want to do it. I'm more accepting of smuttery in this quest because we are a merc, so sleeping around isnt an issue, and it also means that any real romantic relationships will be harder to come by, so fewer waifu wars(relatively) and those that do crop up will feel all the more special for it.
>>4629420
Personally, I would prefer Exile, but I would prefer even more that we not be Voidborn for our first skill tree. I try to base my votes on what I want to be and what I want not to be. As the quest goes by, more evidence can be presented for which should be our second one.

Its less the morality that I have had an issue with(as we have never tried to rape someone or bed a married woman in StV, though the premarital stuff could be an issue) and more the practical reasons. Sleeping with someone who recently tried to kill you doesnt seem practical. In this quest we have more people who want us dead and fewer people who care about us(as people). We are also not the epitome of beauty do to either of our 4 origins, though I doubt some people will car.

The whole tryst with Frida was one of the best events in SvT: not just because it was a total madlad move, but most importantly because it opened up an interesting plotline.

That's generally what marks a good waifu/husbando: a way to develop the story, not to arouse Anons with fake tits and/or abs.

I agree that potential for story development is a key factor, not all potential is good. If we managed to seduce the Queen, that would definitely give the story more ways to develop, but the vast majority would likely lead to very bad things. IF we choose Frida in the end, it doesn't guarantee that it will end in a happy marriage.
Seducing a hostile individual is a few steps down from courtly courting, as the latter as the implicit goal of marriage. Sorry for dragging this old argument out again, I just dont want a repeat to happen unless there are very good reasons for it.

>>4629581

I was still kind of hoping that we managed to crit-success on dancing with Princess immediately after shitting the bed on deal with the Prince.

>>4629581
Ah, but you're conflating good development with positive development. The two are massively different matters.

A good story development is such because it creates an interesting narrative, like Kid's death.

Was it a positive development for Prince? No, it was probably when his last shred of human decency died - yet exactly for that reason it was a strong narrative point.

Similarly, the contrast between Andrei and Frida's personalities, their initial clashes, her father and brother's actions and so on create an interesting and coherent narrative which improves the overral experience - unlike a 'lol seduce the Queen because yes', a sign of a bad QM.

Of course, people are perfectly justified if they dislike Frida due to her possible bad influence or attitude. But that's a judgement on the character itself, not her role in the story.
