    Ohhhh I suddenly get the "everyone says what they're going to do, then resolve all at once" thing. Thank you thank you. First session tomorrow!

    After our first violent encounter and a character rolling 9 on Gore (instadeath), this showed me how to help players understand the risks involved in their decisions. Thank you so much.

      That's great! I hoped it would help people get some idea, we've had our fair share of confusing combats so I understand how hard it is to pull off a tense situation!

    Damn, that‘s a great visualization!
    I‘d love to do something similar for my group.
    It‘s not a stream overlay, right?
    How has this been made?
    I just saw you used Magix Vega, but would you mind going into a bit more detail? The result looks fantastic and I wouldn’t have any idea how to achieve for example the audio source animation

    • @nwtbpodcast
      @nwtbpodcast  28 днів тому +1

      As you mentioned I use Magix Vegas to put together the layers of graphics, the waveform animation is made in FL Studio and their ZGameEditor Visualizer. It makes a separate video which can be added to the Vegas project and blended in/synced up to the audio track.

    At 13:25 you say, something as reducing the stress… because of the critical success.. but I don’t get it. Would you be kind enough to explain me the rule ?

    • @nwtbpodcast
      @nwtbpodcast  3 місяці тому +1

      Sure! We kind of picked it up as a house rule during oneshots that a critical success would also reduce 1 stress and it carried over into normal play.

      Yes that’s right - so you use auto hit damage (no rolling for monster ?)

    Does everyone use maps or do you guys just use imagination instead?

    • @nwtbpodcast
      @nwtbpodcast  4 місяці тому +1

      During the game we just used a static picture of a scene like the security office and had tokens up to signify each character. The battlemap and animations were added afterwards to give an example of how it would look.

      @@nwtbpodcast ok I am so used to maps that I think we rely to heavy on them instead of just story telling and interaction

    • @nwtbpodcast
      @nwtbpodcast  4 місяці тому +2

      It's fine to use maps I reckon, they are a quick way to help the players visualize the scene but as long as they understand to use it in an abstract way. Maps can be both limiting and a way to show the layout without long descriptions. The trick with Mothership is you're not bound so much on the base description, it's more of a conversation between Player and Warden.
