Well, ICAR needed one so that there was a neutral space for banter, rather than having it on one forum or another.
And then people in Forenia's channel wouldn't stop talking about Wands Race, so we got a WR discord.
SR and HR have discords because all the cool arms races have one, I guess.

And, well, the SR discord has been used a lot- it wouldn't be possible to have that rapid discourse using only posts.

Though I agree that it must seem odd to see people voting for stuff with basically no reason, on account of being convinced in the discord.

Like NUKE said, the Discord is for rapid back-and-forth discussion.

I am terrible at rapid back-and-forth discussion and I dislike it.

Yeah, he's a banned spammer. Normally we'd delete this thread too, but people were having too much fun with it by the time we got here.

That wasn't a bug. We invented time magic in another future.

You know, if you keep piling up soldiers, our ballistas are going to eventually hit one.

Long after your slaves are killed, your Spearmens Entrails decorate our hallowed grounds, Your Skirmishers put to the ground after serving the Nest with their sustenance. Long, long after the greatest warriors lay dead in our maws, and your god's altars desecrated in the name of the Hive, WIll your Dreaded Balistae strike our selves, again and again, until they too, will fall under our inevitable demand.

I just want to say that I really like this AR. It's setting, it's mechanics, and details.

While I was typing this, I had an idea. Posting it without thinking it through: What about a 'free' strategy (or a limited die, like 1d4 or only allowing certain actions) that regenerates over 3 turns? It seems a little expensive that we have to pay in research actions for everything.

You have a free unit redistribution of 10%.

What more do you need?
