What kind of drugs do you give them and they are all so happy?

 

[Reinhardt]

They just got a raise. And good food.

 

[Reinhardt]

Great. While i was busy raiding and pillaging, my fag allies lost 2 settlements. Thal is my starting village and had "allied" status just 3 days ago. It has cheap armorer and copper and salt mines.

 

[Parabalus]

I sacked a 30 pop goblin camp which said it was "one of the entrances to their underground city". I remember reading that the emperor helmet is in a big goblin city, found nothing here. I'm worried because I let some 7 regular goblins run away, no chance I could have missed it, right? Have to search more for the right city I guess.

 

[Reinhardt]

Iirc it's "built on remains of ancient fortress" or something like this.

 

[agris]

yeah, that's the encounter that got me the helmet. i think it said both built on the remains, and that there was a network of tunnels underneath it.

 

[waterdeep]

solid game but would be much better with mod support

 

[Jimmious]

More info on hit chances and rolls will be shown in the combat log for better transparency in combat! Coming with the 1.1 update!

 

[Parabalus]

I'd like to see hit chances for AoE attacks, particularly for hitting friendlies. It's a chore having to calculate it by hand every time.

One thing that bugs me is the inconsistency between killing frenzy and berserk. Killing frenzy triggers on retreat kills, but berserk doesn't. Should be mentioned in the tooltip.

Got the UD crisis at last and it's pretty cool. Love how every battle has a chance of zombies popping out regardless of it being undead related or not. It def. seems harder than the orc or noble war, but likely because of scaling since it's the second one of this campaign.

 

[Jimmious]

But how would berserk trigger on retreat kills? It's not even your turn, how would you get AP back?

You wait with 5/9 AP, fleeing enemy dies to your auto attacks, you finish the rest of your turn with 9/9. Killing frenzy already works like this. Dunno why they would even mention that berserk can't put you over your maximum if it doesn't trigger off of retreat kills, I guess for riposte or spear wall, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't work with them too.

 

[Reinhardt]

I'm done with this noble war. My warmonger deer allies went full retard. Just captured some tundra village in the middle of nowhere. There is nothing. Literally nothing - no buildings, no trade goods.
Next time i'll help smart forest fishies house. They captured 2 closest settlements and went from underdogs to respectable house. Or even deusvulting kitties house. Everything is better.

3AP dagger kills

3AP dagger kills

I know about that but it's still worded in a dumb way.

 

[Murk]

/shrug

I never assumed retreat kills would regen AP since their cost-to-swing is free.

It was the first thing I tried out. Who in their right mind devotes half the tooltip of a perk to rule out getting 1 extra AP from a dagger kill?

The funny thing is killing frenzy works, "upon killing an enemy" vs "a kill". It's not that big of a deal, the whole game is full of "you have to try it to learn it", part of the charm I guess.

This is because for some strange reason in War armies do not attack by road. Which make sense but also lead to silly expansion or conquests. Also Catsles keep to be well defended and what change hands is small villages. So it often lead to situations where armies bypass castles and take villages behind them or in somewhere else because they use shortcuts.

You are looking at a 40 gobbo camp, not 30.

 

[Sarissofoi]

"charm"

Well its kind of pre 'internet' and guides charm where you dig into the game yourself and have fun.
Seriously internet guides and fora destroyed many games that I have fun because they give me all info and took all the fun.

Anyway BB is dead for me in current state. I do not have any will to even look at it.
Which is strange because Starsector is similar game(just in space) but can be pretty easily modified. And even that I get bored with current update(and wait for mods to be updated) I still have some fun with meddling with game files.
Strange, huh.
Its like BB lack something.

 

[Jimmious]

Dude after the hours you've spent in BB no wonder its dead for you. Its the best investment you could have ever made for a game.

 

[Taka-Haradin puolipeikko]

Sarissofoi how long did you play before burnout?

 

[Sarissofoi]

Dude after the hours you've spent in BB no wonder its dead for you. Its the best investment you could have ever made for a game.

Well there is some games that I spend more and come back.
Or some that I finished and could say "That game is great" even if I do not plan to come back. BB still left me hungry but even if it was worth the money it was also little disappointing. Well I do not come here to complain much.
Just to say that I have fun with Starsector. Have a nice day.

Dont worry I dont want to make fun of you. You are not bitching all the time like others in similar situations.
I still have hope that BB will get more content, there is a lot of love for the game going around.
Starsector is something Ive been watching for years now. Im annoyed when games take so long to be done but interesting to hear that you enjoy it so much

 

[Jimmious]

Why have I only heard of Starsector now...

Maybe you knew it as "Starfarer" ? It has changed names once or twice ..
