Duke Knight's Momentum is up for revision? Which version of the skill would you prefer?

Current one, unchanged.
+4 AS and +5 DMG when moving 4 spaces or more.
+2 AS and +3 DMG on Player Phase, with additional +2 AS and +2 DMG when moving 4 spaces or more.
+1 AS and +1.5 DMG for each space moved up to 4 spaces.
Current one but AS bonus is converted to DR from the end of the Player Phase until the next one.
I don't know but I want to see the results.

Well it seems pretty likely its my hard drive has spontaneously died, along with everything on it, includig maps for DSE and mugs. Also the half done 1.4 but I hadn't touched that in ages so whatever.
 
Prospects for recovery are low. Dunno when I'll have a computer next.

Obviously DSE is suspended or dead. I'll probably be around less because hey, no computer.

Aw, hope that you'll recover and be able to get a new computer soon ;-;

Reading earlier FEF games (especially the numbered ones by Haspen) is a good start. There are some over on Serene's Forest, too.

Ok, I'll take a look at those when I get the chance.

First post of this thread has FEF1 in pdf format if you'd rather read that :v

I actually downloaded FEF1 a couple of days ago, and I'm a good chunk of the way through now. Fun read.

I feel like FEF would benefit from a discord
It can be accessed easily on mobile, whereas IRC will typically die on mobile if I tab out too long, and importantly it is persistent for each person using the chat, so we can keep plans and strategic conversations going much more coherently

Easily on mobile? It doesn't work on my phone.

We've had this conversation at least once in one of the game threads and the response was pretty much "meh, I wouldn't mind it"

This may well be late enough it won't be read, but personally - I'd recommend practicing your english. Just going through what you've written can help fix common mistakes - singular I should always be capitalised, sentences should always end in punctuation, and you can catch any typos that way (such as im afaird).

For each character you should decide on their goals, their personality, and their fears. Humans are flawed, imperfect creatures, so think of something they are strong in and something they're weak in. Perhaps they're very determined, but quick to anger, for example.
Most importantly they have to be willing to work with the group. Edgy loners end up being, well, alone, and that's just somewhat boring in the end.

Eh.
It does have the same issue as IRC in that people who don't check it regularly still won't see plans and stuff in a timescale that matters.

Also the last five times I went to the IRC room it's been totally dead, like FEF in general, so I don't think a Discord matters much. :V

Hard for it to not look dead when you come when half of people are asleep and other half is busy and you leave 3 minutes after joining before anyone can come back and say hi. V:

So, I was thinking... Would it be a good idea to include all units' battle stats with their current weapon as mouseover text on their HP count? That would probably reduce a lot of going back and forth between Pastebin tabs for the players when thinking about strategy. Though on the other hand, I imagine it would require tremendous amounts of works from the GM, especially after levelups.

Something like this:

Unfortunately, mouseover text doesn't work on all browsers and is useless on mobile. It isn't a bad idea, I'm just not sure it will help enough people to be worth the extra headache.

I personally won't be doing it; too much effort.

Ditto.
