Improbable. "The Monster" is a title, which means he earned it...We can't trust anyone whose title is "Der Monster." That's, like, "The Monster." Let's leave him behind and ask for directions to Famsi.Or he could be like Goris the friendly deathclaw.
1)Yes, but how do you know the GM isn't an AI? Or an alien? Or an alien AI? Or an AI built from the remains of a crashed alien ship that has been implanted in a human?Impossible, improbable, improbable, improbable. Even if those things were around, why would they be wasting their time posting the rules of AIs in a game on Bay12?
2)I ninja'd you, editing to indicate I was joking a few seconds before you posted.Ah.
Does it give any extra settlements or do we have to put part of the starting set of three villages+stuff in another hex?You could put some of the starting settlements in it, or buy some new ones to put in it.
Also, how much would my race cost?I can't see any race you suggested. The magic stated here is somewhat common (compared to most magic, at least), and fairly versatile, so ~4 points. That leaves a couple points for tech and a couple points for the expansion emphasis. Is this fine or were there some nonhuman things you wanted to add?
What does 'extra hex' trait give, exactly? Will we be completely unable to expand beyond one hex for the entire game without it?No, it just lets you put initial, non-colony settlements outside of your starting hex.
Do what any self respecting politician would do: mingle, find interesting people, introduce ourselves, kiss hands and shake babies, ask about the captain, the ship, their home planet and maybe sample some of the food and drink. In short participate in the festivities and be good to humans. Oh, oh! Try to mimic the humans dancing to the silly human music and look+1sillyadorable. (humans still find short silly things adorable, right?)
Oh, and the AI's failsafes seem preety good. I'd put one in my car if I had one.This is the GM talking, not the AI.
But then again that's exactly what an AI would say to lull us into a false sense of security.
