Absolutely love the artwork and layout of this. NPC  and Myths illustration a particular highlight. The parallels with current real world AI and hallucinated slopware and the consequences that can come from that is an extremely cool concept for a story (at least how I've read the premise).

It can be a bit tricky to follow the thread from the reveal, especially if you read it as a folded tri-fold. Could probably move S4vant to the top of the Characters panel to make them easier to find - there were times I had to read a lot further to get information that clarified earlier story which was a little confusing.

This has so much potential for chaos I know my group would jump at playing it, but it seems there is a lot of warden prep to get the story straight, especially how the resetting mechanic is dealt with regarding players vs people already there.

Overall, would play but needs good prep (which is fine!)

Thank you for the kind words and valuable feedback!

Hey, thank you for the feedback. Some clarification and points we'll look at adding in v2 after the jam:

1. Dr Rollo and the Scientist are different people (we could make this clear by naming the Captain and the Scientist). Dr Rollo is the author of an encyclopedia on known and theorized topics and peoples across Rimspace in our home game so just a nod to him. The intent here is this is an excerpt from one of his books.

2. Will check this out and rate/feedback today!

3. That's fair! It fits into a larger story from a project we are working on for Table Jam 26 (if we hit that deadline - https://itch.io/jam/table-jam-26) that we couldn't have crammed into the trifold. Fully encourage anyone picking up RADSICK to chop and change it as they see fit, at the end of the day it's all about your group having a good time.

4. The debates we have had about this table :D :D. It has come up a few times now so I think we'll take another crack at it.

5. Tier 1 NPCs should be treated as a horde so each star location the warden should roll a d10 for the number of those Tier 1 NPCs in that location. We'll see how it reads after the jam with fresh eyes, but you may be right to make it plural.

Thanks again and if you ever do run it let us know it goes!
