I'm fine with not asking questions at all, but I'd rather we mend all these holes before the lead rain starts pouring in.
Can we hold off on the repairs until we're off the molten uranium? After that I'm all for splitting crewmen up between firing guns and duct taping the hull back in place.
If we kill the J.Hound fast enough, we might have some allies to watch our back while we repair ourselves/send out parties to nearby landmarks.
Our allies looks competent enough to take care of that last invader, and we only have one more multi-missile.
Also, welcome back Ender. Hope you've had a good time.
Combat Orders: Hold Fire Movement: (Forward[3])) Communications: (On Standby) Crew Orders: Technical - Repair [Juggernaut wetware - Reactor chamber - Missile bay] - Dispatch Security teams [Kincaid and J.L. Storage]) Salvage: (Ghetty[2])
Can we deploy multiple security teams? One to Kincaid and one to J.L.?
As for repairs, I'd rather get our disabled systems back on line, then work on repairing the armor. Particularly for the Juggernaut wetware, I'm guessing that if that goes we lose our Juggernaut mode, which means no more Plasma Cannon shenanigans.

These allies are pretty kick ass. Welcome back Ender!
Pretty sure we got the electronics from the ghetty scrap we broke down. I'm not sure what the order of operations is, but I was pretty sure that Ender would give us the benefit of the doubt.
Shooting a Hitler-maker full of Hitlers? The only way this could be better, was that if we had a stack of hitler-corpses to process into bullets. Anyway, let's get rid of these small fry and prepare for maximum shooty.

I'm thinking an investigation of the Silo might be a good idea. Anyone agree?
Also, is there anything the technical teams can do aboard the EoK besides fix things? I want to do stuff with the recovered material besides plug holes.

I'd have used Kickstarter, but they use Amazon Payments as a platform, and I'm not a U.S. citizen so that doesn't work for me. x.x
I hope it works out. I'm not a very good marketer, but I'll do what I can (...just FYI, the permutation of the game I decided to publish is not the same as the form you guys are playing here).
With Love and Courage

Yeah I noticed the differences. I linked a few people to the page and requested their 'likes' etc. My only criticism is that perhaps art should be lower down on the stretch goals, but I understand that it is expensive. Perhaps the pitch could be improved, jazzed up, but I couldn't tell you how myself.

We need to look into getting some auxiliary vees for the Tank. Maybe go looking for a garage or manufacturing plant, or see if we can get an onboard factory going

Perhaps the Hitler Lathe has some sweet manufacturing equipment/plans for us if we defeat it. I would especially like the gun that fires Tiger tanks.
Oh, were you the one who backed for 25 bucks, Tiph? Thanks a lot. I really wish I could make this work out, because I'm starting to reach wit's end IRL for a few reasons, but it's looking like this was a no-go, so I guess I'll have to figure something else out.
I really, really appreciate the support, though.
I'll try to get this game back on track & updated daily as soon as is reasonable, but I'm having a month from Hell so this is a low-priority thing for me right now, unfortunately.
Yeah, I was hoping donations would have trickled in for you. I'm certain the game mechanics are solid, you've shown a good attention to detail in these two games you've hosted here.
I'm sorry to hear you are facing difficulties, hopefully you'll find a path that leads to improvements. And if life is kicking your behind, take as long a break as you need. I got this thread bookmarked so I won't lose sight of it so easily.

Quickly, we must recover the corpses of our unfortunate allies. So we can use them to repair ourselves. Hopefully before we explode.
Edit: Jeep-Eep, you're absolutely correct.
