((Oh this is gonna be GOOD. The first action by Psyker results in a daemon being summoned. I may get in faster than previously thought.))((I should feel guilty about being excited by the chance to get in, but...))
Dude, that's what trade agreements are for >:IOkay, I just logged on and found out that someone bombed my cheese-making planet to rubble and left a giant B12 carved into the primary continent. Fess up, who did it? That was a major dick move considering the planet had no major resources and wasn't in a strategic location. Just a backwater world producing cheese for my empire. Good cheese, too.Alright, I confess, it was me! But I didn't know you were the one that owned that planet. Your cheeses were crowding out the market so much I couldn't offload any of my own, and cheese is one of my main productions. I know it was a bit of a dick move, but I didn't know what else to do.
Yeah. We may complain bitterly from time to time, but I think you found the best balance: challenging enough that we can lose characters, and have come close on several occasions, but not so brutally difficult that we will lose characters no matter how hard we try. We could have had casualties any number of times, but we pulled it off by the skin of our collective teeth each time and that makes us (or me, at least) feel mighty.-implying-
Dude, don't worry. You have it down.
That's hardly being a karma houdini, that's character development. If he had, for example, left another major protagonist to die or even murdered him/her and then went on to a happy ending, that would be pretty houdini-ish.I'd like Valor to get a happy ending, but it'd make him a bit of a Karma Houdini.
How so?
Up until around Chapter 5 or so, Valor was nearly entirely motivated by his own gains. After that, when he thought he'd lost all that, was when started to really actually value the people around him beyond combat assets (Except Seyena, he's been after her since Chapter 2).
I ain't gonna do that for my game.Boooooo :ISilly Sirus, this is Haspen we're talking about. There is no earning a happy ending.
I think our characters earned a nice long happy ending after all of this.
"This is such a weird time to be having such a weird conversation."
: "Seems to be a common occurrence for us."
: "Ouch."
Will Gregor's older brother take over the 'arranged marriage' deal, perhaps in a line or two in the epilogue?Don't forget, Alexandra doesn't want to get married either. I suppose she might change her mind later, but right now...

Today, Superman is exactly 3 times as old as Sirus.
Ain't that something.
