[deck]

You and your friends are playing this weird multiplayer modded Fortuna together. You're really not sure what to expect from this round, honestly. Your friend who brought you into playing this is pretty well known for their eccentric, yet fun, games.

All you know is that it's been pretty modded, taking inspirations from card games. You think they even added non traditional games in there as well? You're not too sure.

The basis of how it's going to go however, is this.

RulesShow

You and three other crews are heading to Fortuna. You all start with a five person crew, four being randomly generated by Fortuna. Each of you have a colour theme: red, green, blue, or yellow. You'll all be playing it like a basic Fortuna game, but with a catch.

For every planet, you all have to gather your crew, assign each member a number except for the captain, around and do the following.

All of you must choose one crew member from another person's crew. Someone else must also pick one crew member from your crew, essentially making it so that your crew members are constantly swapped around with each other.

You are not allowed to hire new crew members, except in the event of death. If no one has died, you have to discard or fire one crew member that is either the same color, species, or job as the last crew member that has died or been fired. You have to remember though, that if your friend fires a red aftik beast master, you can only fire a crew member with similar qualities as them.

There will also be a crew member that will never fit any of the qualities needed to be fired. They will always find a way to shift color, species or jobs, and are inexplicably lucky. You simply have to hope that you don't get caught with them come end game, otherwise they'll turn on your crew.

All of you are not allowed to broadcast what you're doing to each other except for when you finally retrieve fuel. The first two who gather fuel exchange with each other, while the last two exchange with each other.

You'll all duke it out at Fortuna, if by any chance two or more of you reach it at the same time.

You all also have a custom patron watching over all of you, ensuring the game goes to plan. They will prevent hybrids from occurring to ensure the game goes smoothly, as well as making sure every character has a main colour. The colours being Red, Blue, Yellow or Green.

This will be a four planet run, since you're all simply looking for a quick game. Fortuna isn't counted in those four.

Rules but TL;DR versionShow

• A crew can only consist of five crew members, including the captain. The other four will be randomly generated.
• Every planet, you will exchange crew members with another crew.
• You can only hire new crew members if a crew member has died or been fired. You can only fire a crew member if they have the same colour, species, or job as the last crew member fired.
• Ex. If your friend fires a red aftik beastmaster, you can only fire a crewmember that is either red, an aftik, or a beastmaster.
• There will be a crew member that will screw up your crew if you land on Fortuna with them. They cannot be fired, or killed. They must be given to another crew.
• The first two crews who get their fuel the first trade crew members, and then leave.
• If more than one crew reaches Fortuna first, they will fight for the chest.
• This is a four planet run, not including Fortuna in the list.

You're not sure how long they spent modding this game. You're pretty sure it'll end up messily. Maybe there's a loophole they over looked?



Either way, you'll need to choose your colour, fix your captain, and decide on a ship type and ship ai.


Oh, hello there! I believe you will be the first player. Seeing as you're simply starting the game, I doubt you need my assistance at the moment.


Quite decent to meet you indeed. Feel free to call upon me if anything is needed.
