FTL Update + New Models (Patreon)
Content
Since we first revealed FTL last week we've been steadily working on the game, and today we're bringing you a big update to the way it works.
Whilst we liked how FTL was supposed to play in theory, once we actually got to test a couple of games we realized that the game was far too clunky for what we want.
With that in mind we've change a ton of things, here the highlights:
- you can now take 3 escorts per ship and only 1 hero/ace per 250pts
- the mission is now about grabbing objectives which are dropped when killed
- the ability phase is now actually described
- ships have more mobility and can also hold position (though enemies get +1 to hit)
- ships that leave the table now come back at the end of the round
- re-worked shooting to accommodate for weapon upgrades
- re-worked stats for all ships and escorts
We're still not 100% satisfied with how the ship stats are currently being displayed, and both the upgrade sections and the faction sheets are still missing, but this has been an important leap for the game to become more enjoyable.
