So @evilrobotgames.bsky.social & I are about to move the Power Core RPG’s mecha system to playtest.
I’m gonna give out some information about it, but you gotta prime the pump for this information station.
Every like this gets before 0900 PST Monday, Nov 3, gets one piece of info about the rules.

While I'm complaining this morning:
Microsoft: what idiot decided that swiping left in Outlook archives the message, but you do it in Teams by swiping *right*??
This becomes extremely aggravating when quickly switching between apps for work-related purposes. Do better.

Have you noticed with any new social media texting platform, they are *never* created with the ability to edit posts, and yet that is one of the *first* things users repeatedly ask for?
You'd think it would be covered in a design meeting...
