Completing that item was Something Awful, I tell ya.
(I forgot that I had to equip the item for 30-40 battles first, to spawn the Lover, then run floor one a couple dozen times to subdue all the non-marksman residents. Since it gets a tiny HIT bonus per level-up from being filled with marksmen.)
Built a craft capable of landing at sea-level on Eve and then returning more effectivy than the massive abomination that I created before. This one costs 500K credits as opposed to over a million credits, which also opens up the possibility of actual profitable Eve missions.

Kerbal Spehss Program
A trip like that inevitably takes a long time, right? Months at least? I did eventually reach Duna last time I played, but it felt weird "skipping" so much time. But it's hard enough for me to make it at all, particularly with payload, much less waste fuel accelerating and decelerating...

Because of the way the orbits are, getting there was actually pretty quick compared to a Duna trip, but returning was significantly harder since I had to wait for a return window while on a severely slanted orbit relative to Kerbin and with limited dV.

But yeah, that's really just how interplanetsry missions are in KSP, and understandably so. You can minimize the amount of time it takes, but it'll most likely still take well over a year ingame even for the quickest trip possible.

Finally got my Blacksteel Katanas; now I can use them like a true weeb!

With some excommunication and duchy claim requests, I've came very close to uniting the British Isles. All what I need to do now is to expand into Wales, and I'll get the achievement.

Reached the Apex of the first pyramid as regular Redneck, in about 3 hours of play time.

Immortal Redneck. It's a good game and I sure ain't done with it.

In own related news, I subsumed the Human Republic on MoO:CtS.

One cruiser of mine had 68/85 rating. Their frigates had 14/14. It was a hilarious fight. I had to micro my missile batteries cuz a single shot from one bank of 4 mirv missiles MORE than killed a frigate. My guns basically just existed to dissuade them from coming closer between barrages.

Then I sent troops down onto Sol I. It was 11 on eight, their favor. They probably needed 11 more, because not ONE of mine died. Then I proceeded to bring them up to my level because Benevolent Alien Overlords.

Now I'm trying to decide between walking into the Bulrathi-Klackon War, or heading for the Core and Uninhabited Regions. I'm leaning toward the War cuz on the other side of that is the Mrrshan-Darlok sector, and I vastly outrank everyone on territory, research, and population. I'm thinking I should overextend myself and see if they can take advantage.

... Or maybe both...

Played the first six months of my rookie year, then decided to remind myself how to actually play the game by watching the tutorial videos in game and in the following six weeks won more races than I had in the preceding half-year, including my first G-race win, at G3.

This got me to a magical 30 wins, opening up G1 races. Got my first one the next week, I was the #6 favourite on a front runner, a style of horse I am not particularly good at because of the need to get a good start. Get to the paddocks prior to the race, the favourite is all like “oh hey cool this is your first G1 race, but my horse is awesome so see you at the finish line loser nyeh”  because he’s apparently a shitebag.

Get to the race, get myself a god damn flying start, lead for the entirety and cross the line a half-length ahead of second place. My first G1 win at my first G1 race.

The favourite was a little more humble after that.

Shitebag.

I also won the Leading Apprentice award, as well as having the highest winning percentage of all riders ‘cause few people were actually giving me horses, so I ended up with 52 wins in 194 races, finishing 10th overall.

First floor chest had the 7-leaf clover. Among other things this got me the railgun which made bossing trivial, the super hot watch which made everything trivial, the particulator which made things easier still and finally the goddamn yari launcher all of which got me trough the dragun fight without a scratch (was expecting an unlock of some sort from that tbh). But that's not the own here, that's just crazy luck, the own is that I finally managed to kill the bloody HMS Absolution. As it turns out, if you stop and observe the pattern it isn't all that hard. What gave me the most trouble before was dodging the beams but as it turns out you don't really need to dodge those, much easier to stay in the middle and dodge the smaller bullet patterns, all the while doing damage to the thing.

All that's left is the convict, kinda funny since she's the first character I reached the past with but hadn't been able to clear it back then.

Is it actually titanfall based? AFAIK it's made by the same devs, but from what I've seen it's doing its own thing as far as the lore goes.

Looks fun as far as BR games go, tho it has the EA taint so I'm kinda hesitant to touch it (even tho everyone says it's doing the 'cosmetics only' monetization)

My understanding of it is it's by the same devs, in the same universe, and that's where the connection ends.
