[@gigrim54495]

The Tassadar is larger than a Star Destroyer, based on the measurement that Mark provided. That thing is huge

[@Scott_Burton]

If the measure provided of 3,000-4,000 feet "Tip to Bum" as Mark put it at 51:45-52:50, this is roughly 1,219 meters, the Imperial I Class Star Destroyer is listed as 1,600 meters, approximately 1 mile (1 mile being 5,280 feet, 1,000 feet is 0.189 miles. 1 km is roughly 0.63 miles. I typically base my conversions on 1 inch is 2.54cm, 12 inches to a foot, I do round a bit when needing fast rough estimates) It was further re0stated "furthest 2 points" at 2:05:05-2:05:13 "is maybe about 3.5 thousand or 4,000 feet. [And I'm largely replying to this old comment to add engagement on the channel, so don't feel like I'm picking on you]

To my knowledge, Trott is the one that manages the music. How he managed to time the cinematically perfect swell at 45:31 is beyond me, but god damn was it good.

This was so cool Lucius did a good job in infiltrating.

[@quicksilversea5210]

Mark- You out perform each episode, weave an asstonitioning story and create dynamic personalities for the plethora of NPCs in your rich and abundant multiverse. Trott- you bring a smile to my face with all the goofs and Nord VPN-iverse Katie- Thank you for being the Moderator for all these goofy goobers! Rhi!- Never change a thing! Your smile bring cheer, yourlaugh is infectious, andyour creativity with Sentry and the backstory is inspiring. Kim- Your emotional role-play is amazing in all of your characters and the lovely details added thru out all of your one-shots. Tom- Your sense of rules is admirable and I think it really works great with Qilleks super powered eye and Its great having you ask the Right questions. Its cool you can obtain meta with meta-overload. BRAVO TO ALL OF YOU!

Just to say that Mark must have had to do some serious mental juggling here. I'm about two thirds through the episode, and he has a mental map of where everyone is at any given time, and gives answers to PCs instantly to any given prompt, showing the amount of preparation he's put in beforehand as well as on-the-fly calls. Really impressive.

THE SUSPENSE IS REAL, finally, about to save precious girl Valla, so many questions, so little time although the engine crew has a few more days before they come up with wits and deception to get to the Tasadar engine and what’s this, what’s Xarkira doing here? Will Quill use the eye to find out why Xarkira is here? If he finds out she has sinister intentions will he tell the bridge crew and agree to a temporary truce? Will Valla have to go with the old tricks and use the excuse of going to the restroom. Will Quill have to use Divine Intervention or perhaps the spear, it’s revealed there’s a hidden effect Quill can use? As a Re:Zero fan MY BRAIN TREMBLES. Wish one of the PC’s or NPC’s attuned to the helm of Teleportation from one of Xarkira’s copies they killed, so they would’ve teleported out immediately with Valla it was one of the magic items along with the ring of evasion.

[@henryparker8035]

everything is surprisingly going well... so far at least

[@TrickPonyShot]

You guys are really hitting it out of the park with each new episode. These last few have been absolutely fantastic

[@runninginsept]

Spoiler At 2:36:08 now (I'm assuming) just before the group attempts to contact Valla. I would be very surprised (and slightly disappointed) if Valla has not switched sides, throwing the group for a loop in the middle of enemy territory. Her father is charismatic and compelling. If Callus is half as smart as he's being portrayed, he would have converted his daughter by now.

[@lilz3337]

Oh Aila, I love this character so much. Seriously "that one's still alive we can kill them too" is so good. That and I'm a delight sums up Aila so we'll.

I have faith that the airois crew will succeed in their quests. But if anyone would like a plot for a game, and I believe I will never be able to dm to the extent of mark, here is a plot I have but never heard anyone do. After a group of adventures finds a thief's camp in search of an elders treasures. The elder asks them to take a deck of cards to the king as he is their nephew. After drawing a card from the deck the king is affected by a negative effect from the deck of many things. This can include the prince turning on him. The king turning evil. The castle becomes a maze full of monsters. The king falls under a "comatose" state while his soul is trapped in another plain. After the effect is done the card disappears back into the deck.

[@MrZonehawk]

Nova "accidentally" kills someone....again. I'm thinking L/E Alignment.

01:49:00 i really don't like how this feels. Mark is honestly forcing nova to uses a spell slot to keep her stealth mission going but when she offers a smart solution via the levitate spell marks, is suddenly like "uhhh you cant uses that because.. because you only have 6 seconds to do some 🤓" it just leaves a sour taste in my mouth watching him force her to uses 1 of her ONLY 3 slots :T

QIllek should send a message to Valla telling her to go to the toilet. Then on the way tell her to dash into the elevator, meanwhile nova get's Tiangon (don't know how to spell it) to tell Tasidar to make a error in the elemental engines so they explode on a timer , then take Tasidar, run to the elevator, reunite and get the **** out of dodge . (or Qillek should use layman's secrete chest to put people in and cast his furture self to concentrate on another ethereal plane spell).

Not sure of the distances, but it's only 120ft. Also it is blocked by a certain amount of material...
