Galactic War System Change Incoming
Source: HD2 Discord
We are performing an update to our backend logic that will change the way "impact" is dealt. Impact is the "liberation" that players deal to enemy planets or defend events. It used to be that Helldivers needed to complete an operation (usually 3 missions) in order for impact to be distributed.
Now, each mission will deal impact, and completing an operation will then deal bonus impact. This is primarily done to make sure that everyone performing missions can safely say that they have contributed to keeping the galaxy safe, without the need to have the operation complete.
Hopefully this will make the system easier to understand, and the casual diver who only has time for a mission a day can still effectively help the war effort.
These cultist squids will never take Super Earth or our way of life. Every bullet we fire is a vote against their autocratic freedom hating agenda. SES Elected Representative of Integrity will always defend liberty, justice, and Managed Democracy.

Two days after the Singularity Party?! It's a good time to spread Managed Democracy.
Do you have issues with the same term colliding with each other like a goblin from campaign 1 being confused with a different goblin from campaign 2. Each campaign goblin is different due to different attacks and traits.
Seven. One is for my personal notes. The other 6 is for various TTRPG campaigns.
I paid for the 1 TB model but it should be simple enough to upgrade the SSD. Think of it as a learning experience.

Thanks!
No. It's that your players are already using roll20. At that point, they should be open to try a new VTT.
Like how they're open to try different RPGs.
I hope you're not a forever GM.

I see many mentions of Overcooked. I find that PlateUp! has more meat to bite into than Overcooked.
