logged in to the OWLG but it shows an empty list - I guess it's the usual delay?

Yes there are numerous tables. You can also covert just about anything to your liking to work. I will be adding the retrieval shortly.

I love the level of tension that's building in your game and the way your write-up moves back and forth between the characters - it's really sucked me in! I need to know who's leaving this trail of corpses behind them 🫣

I don't have any experience with 4AD at all - I'm guessing it must have a wide selection of tables to ensure your adventures don't get repetitive?

Looking forward to reading more about the retrieval mission 👍

Nicely detailed write-up Erik 👍

How did you find the experience of playing the scenario with AI support? Did it increase or decrease the level of immersion in the setting, versus the ease of moving the game along? I've never used AI for my games, so I'm interested in the advantages & disadvantages of its use.

I was too busy to play any solo games last month. So using AI helped take the pressure off from being both GM and Player.
I definitely felt:
a) things went quicker, as the AI (as seen above) told me exactly what to roll and when (per the prompt I fed it = I'm glad it obeyed. LOL);
b) yes, I did feel like it did a good job of describing the environment and providing a level of immersion.

I don't know how long it would have allowed me to stay on the bridge before the air got so bad that the smoke choked out Lim. Could Lim have kept searching indefinitely, and found more and more items to loot? I don't know. I'm hopeful the answer is, No, since I told the AI to not 'hold back' and be too nice. This is Mothership after all.

As far as a clear negative...in the past, when I've not been so detailed with my starting prompt, that I've caught the AI getting it wrong opting for narrative flow vs. rule accuracy. I'd ask it to double-check and it would respond, "Oh, my bad. Let me do that again." So far, with Session 01, and a more thorough prompt, this has gone well...so far.


That's really interesting Erik, thanks for the detailed breakdown. It's really helpful for others to see what kind of prompts ensure the AI does what you want it to do, rather than its own thing! And if it helps you get a decent gaming session in, then that's a definite plus 👍
