Choice of Rebels Part 1 WIP thread

I don’t like the battle because it feels FORCED AND WEIRD … here is Mara with ZERO COMBAT AND WHO CANNOT HANDLE a Lacoste spear a month a go could single handly Killed a Mutant with my stupid army … Nothing is credible at all BECAUSE I HAVE NO ARMY TO BEGIN WITH…

I run Then Game says nope they find you FIGHT TIME… And I had less than 30 followers sniff :sob:

OK so first, loved the update. And I still totally adore this game. :3

Second, while I’ve only had time to play it semi-fast 2 times now, Breden always ended up dying (wah I wanted to avoid that as I had my MC romance him but I failed) but he was also present at the end scene, as if he hadn’t died.

Might have more comments when I’ve had more time for more playthroughs. :slight_smile:

It’s been a while since I played this game…

I forgot how difficult it is to survive the damnable winter.

So I don’t know how I killed Mutants and a mage? Alone And I only lost twenty men and all my officers are ok. So I suppose is ok. BUT YOU PROMISE ME THEY WON’T FIND ME HAVIE :sob: I did all ok I did apl I could to fly away I filled the traps all the forest and we were so few

Did the army find you, or just the hounds/Theurges? My promise applied only to the army.

Yay! I did it! Sort of anyway, hid in the woods threw off the army and fought off their hounds and now I’m taking Simon with me across the Wards, while Elery leads the rest. Also for character evolution my mc taking Simon across the wards is a risk and the ultimate test if after Ganelon’s most foul betrayal he can ever trust anyone who was born a “noble” ever again, so there’s a lot riding on how Simon is going to conduct himself out there and of course whether or not hel’ll betray my mc as much as Ganelon ultimately did. :sweat_smile:

So not exactly a resounding victory, but at least most of us are still alive to subvert the Hegemony some other day. And we’ve apparently caused Hector some further damage to his pride, which is always a nice bonus. :laughing:
I reckon my mc’s flight and delaying action into the woods has caused the Hegemony to at least waste a task-force for weeks and cost them three trained theurges and their hounds and a couple of dozen dead alastors in return for them killing maybe two dozen of my own followers and dear old dad of course, as my mc says without that bitter old man, how will he know when he’s won? On another note who will my mc eventually saddle with the rotten ceremonial position of head of the new state and hopefully Hector as a maidservant now? :worried: , which is less than the winter did and the lost theurges make it at least an uneven trade for them. Although now my mc hates that boytoy, “captain” Tychon too.

While I did not really notice or think to look for any spelling or grammar mistakes for me the play-test went perfectly and I’m looking forward to finally seeing the lands beyond the wards.

No idea Havie. I suppose only theurge and hunts. However, some posterior paragraph is confusing as hell. They will talking about the success of the army and astonishing battle against you and other stuff that supports that the army fighting me. Also Mara could not lift the Lacoste stick HOW IN HELL SHE COULD ALONE KILL THE MUTANT FIGHTING LIKE BUFFY… AND WHERE WAS MY MACE FANATICS lol Muabdid in Dune had better kamikaces. In My mind Is evil Gandhi with a broom fighting alone while some mules laugh about it with my men.
I did marched alone thankfully no more Helots!

Mara,

Are you saying @Havenstone out “Mara’d” the real Mara? It looks like he pulled a trick you would have in your bag… :no_mouth:

Got this when ambushing the mule train even though I was only fighting the Syntechnia guards.

Well Mara still won… How nobody knows… I just know my invisible army of no real people let me alone with a Lacoste spear to kill mutants … I send my men away from forest so I had a few Radmar and the rabbies one that decided let the zero combat celestial send do the military work while I have a barley poker session with the mules. If she is a god send she will win alone lol.

Mara - goddess of poison, mules and fighting alone… in @Havenstone’s universe.

I only played through it now recently and even I did not do that awful of a job.

I think I managed to get 212 people through it.

It was going swell I tell ya. Morale was great, everyone was armed with steel, I had all the intel I needed, 2 COM, I killed over 200 of the asshats with traps.

Then somehow you check stats and everyone dropped dead and you go, “Wtf?”

I stopped because mule-simulator 2k16 destroyed me the last time I tried. I was like, “might as well give it another shot.”

Somehow I survived, I don’t know how and I’m just bummed I don’t have a save feature because I don’t think I can replicate it.

After the plektoi attack I tried to make my heroic last stand and Radmar was just like “yeeeaaah, about that…”

13 dudes. Fuck me

I have to admit, though. Chopping Breden apart was surprisingly satisfying.

I accidentally murdered the cave with Therugy. I was like, “whoops” did too good of a job. Also, goddamn he either got sold the fuck out by another kryptast or he is a complete idiot. Since he did such a good job before this point, I think he got sold out.

What I wouldn’t give for a scrap of decisive evidence.

Yep, I agree, this is nearly as ambiguous as an @Cataphrak hint.
