I'm having quite a bit of fun with this, but there has been an issue where the add-on with the new faction is printing weird. The colors are offset and words get cut off, the whole stat line is just gone. Is this a me issue? The other files printed out fine so I'm a bit confused.

Other from that, though, I love how zippy it is to throw down and play. I've been using different dice from BaronofDice for factions and terrain XD it's been good fun, though I feel a couple of the factions are a bit weak, though that's likely my style more than anything.

Given that I'm a massive Lancer and Maleghast fan, I'm buying it. Psionic spec ops is right up my alley.

That said, sir, friend, herald of the awesome, I BEG of you; make a Pages version of the document so us nerds who love our physical booklets can do our thing. Same for both this and Maleghast; the only thing I'd ask is for a Pages version.

I've seen most games on roll20 which has decent support and a lot of players have tables already set up. There's a pack floating around for Foundry but I haven't fiddled with it yet. Tabletop Simulator also has an excellent mod table that looks fantastic and has some of the more popular homebrew offerings as well as some alternate art to help differentiate things a bit. Hope this helps o7

If you can that'd be awesome, thanks so much. Not to prod (because I know you do a lot between Lancer and webcomics and such) but do you know when you might get the time for the next update?

Replying for support o7 I ended up just doing the second page onward and stapling it to flip through but having a legit booklet like Space Weirdos would be so much better T_T

Just here to second the "Please publish a pages version for ease of printing" and say the art is amazing. I haven't gotten the chance to play yet but I've been watching 11dragonkid's videos and it'll hit my tabletop soon.

Thanks so much :) And yeah, I was kind of leaning towards the Codex style entry as a way to introduce my own little homebrew group of mercs. Having a more personal point of view seems to be a pretty common ask so I'll be doing that next writing jam :D Not sure what kind of story I'll tell but I'm liking that helmet cam idea so keep an eye out next round for me o7

Thank you for your assessment :) I do agree that it's very much an impersonal and kind of dry account of events more than anything, like a codex entry someone said. I've always been fond of that "they are my enemy and you were not invited" mentality XD plus, let's be real, Battle Brothers in lore come across as a little abrasive. Next writing jam I'll see what I can do about a more personal story, maybe tell a little about how Captain Raeph managed to take on a squad of Destroyers or how Lady Val reacted to their intervention :3 I've even got a bunch of characters that have popped up as a result of a tournament.

That was a deliberate choice :P I wanted to tell the origin of my headcannon faction, as I usually do with games like this. In 40k it was my Tachyon Shadows, in OPR it's my Void Fang Mercenaries :D the intent was to be more of a 'bird's eye view', sort of like a codex entry as someone else mentioned. Either way thank you for your comment, I'm glad you enjoyed it o7

You and me both, friend. You and me both.

Thanks so much! :D A new friend also in this jam said it read like a 40k Codex entry and I'm realizing that's kinda what I ended up with. Glad to hear I did it well.

A fellow Jackals enthusiast :D very nicely done, I really liked this one.

Glad you enjoyed and thanks for the comment :D The Jackals are just so cool, like canid Fremen with less worms and more speed.
