So it's settled then. Arden Vul on Tuesdays, Mothership on Fridays. THIS WILL BE GREAT!!

[@felswoop60]

Would love to see the 3d6 DTL crew take this one for a spin! Such a cool system.

[@kylegraywolf]

Haunting of Ypsilon-14 would be a fun, flavorful, 1-3 shot

[@jacoblee1328]

This. But David will still play a thief.

[@VanDavis]

SAME

[@kat_boss5520]

come on Jon, wee need a 3d6 DTL one-shot. Such a cool and beautiful system

[@RustAches]

Exciting! I hope you will consider running this on the channel!

[@zacharyshifflett72]

Mothership is awesome. I am adding my voice to the chorus of those who would love to see a one shot on the channel.

[@Metal_Horror]

What a lovely surprise. I'd been low-key hoping you guys were into Mothership, especially the update.

[@Bargletheinfamous]

Great video i'm eagerly awaiting mine

[@UxerUospr]

Excellent ambient soundtrack to set the mood :D

[@Lanessar8008]

First adventure you run should be Gradient Descent, it's possibly one of the best megadungeons ever written.

[@gpn962]

What do you like about it? I'm excited to read, just got it in the mail.

[@Lanessar8008]

@@gpn962 It's less about physical horror, and more about psychological horror. The elements heavily play on "gaslighting" types of self-insert discoveries, with a gradual twisting of reality to make you question whether you, your friends, or random people are in fact human, or just scans. It's rare to find horror that builds up slowly over time to finally reach a peak, most is front-loaded gore/scary stuff. This adventure just gets more and more grotesque as you explore further.

[@chungbertflabbergast5995]

Mine should be arriving soon and I am very excited. Looks like a great little box set. My friends and I are huge fans of stuff like Alien (who isn't?) so I know this is going to be a perfect fit for my group.

[@ionamilne3455]

Looks ace! Maybe you guys could run a cheeky wee one shot?

[@pateyler]

I'm so jealous. Mine was supposed to arrive yesterday, but it hasn't left the local distribution center yet (arrived Friday).

[@chungbertflabbergast5995]

Mine was supposed to arrive Friday but is stranded. It'll be worth it when it comes, I have no doubt, but the wait is difficult for sure!

[@IndieAuthorX]

Unboxed mine and really looks amazing. I am going to have to find out how to get punch out cards of my own made because I want to use my own art in games. So much to work with. I think the eyeball impressions will really help sell friends to play this game with me.

[@harmanburns]

Most criminally underwatched unboxing video on the internet

[@mus0u]

Mothership seems like a great system, a nice medium-weight game that isn't shy about its classic traveller and od&d influences, i am prepping for a mini-campaign of Cloud Empress starting this week and really looking forward to it. i think this game will be like Into The Odd in that it will be well suited to a whole range of settings and genres.

[@VanDavis]

I've just gotten into Mothership with the 0 Edition, and I just got my Late Pledge boxed set. I am HOOKED, and I think I'm pretty much an OSE and Mothership guy for the foreseeable future! Hope to see you all play some Sci-Fi Horror!

[@freespace21]

Hi Jon! Still waiting for mine to arrive. Is there a chance for a 3d6DTL one-off somewhere in the future?

[@hexaedre]

Thanks for the unboxing! I can't wait to get my own after such a long wait.

[@-HazardPay-ru8ii]

Great to see you cover Mothership. I cannot wait to see these box sets out in the wild

[@jacoblee1328]

What an outstanding set. Love the artwork and over-all aesthetic. Jealousy is rockin an 11.

[@kylegraywolf]

Appreciate the run through. I’ve forgotten what I backed at this point, but stoked at what I’m seeing. One day I will get that shipping email 🤞 Like the rest, hope to see yall run a bit of it. There are a lot of short adventures that would be a great breather at any point for the channel 🤙

[@mandonz]

Sitting tight here waiting for mine to come in the post too Jon. The wait is over!

[@declankonesky38]

What a sick cover

[@MiniPainterGamerDadD20]

Mine arrives tomorrow!!!!!

[@solitaryrpg]

Just watched your video and wonder when my KS would be shipped. Checked my email and just got my notification.

[@gpn962]

You guys should run some Mothership sometime, would be awesome :)

[@ennuiincarnate]

I only got the Landing Crew patch. Were there meant to be two?

[@3D6DTL]

I’m not sure!

[@kylegraywolf]

It might have been one of those “Back in the first x amount of time” rewards? Cannot recall though, it’s been so long 😬

[@-HazardPay-ru8ii]

@@kylegraywolf Correct. You had to back within the first day or two to get it

[@joshsykes3670]

Looks like the art on the screen was printed upside down?

[@user-dd9dh9kw5c]

I really try to like mothership but a lot of its modules feels too artsy fartsy for me. I just want something cut and dry not abstract and odd. I get the allure but im a simple man.

[@japandave3871]

A few years ago I was admin of the lamentations of the flame princess discord. I had joined the Mothership discord and had spoken to the devs quite a bit, they seemed very nice. The girlfriend of Zak, a LotFP adventure writer, posted a huge allegation of physical, verbal, and sexual abuse against Zak. Immediately most of the OSR devs sided with the girlfriend and I said in the LotFP discord, not the mothership discord, “We need to hear both sides of the story before this turns into a witch hunt and Zak is wrongfully cancelled.” Well this exploded with negative reaction because most of the OSR devs follow the: BELIEVE ALL WOMEN! Mindset. I wasn’t saying she was lying I said we needed to be logical and get all the facts. The mods of the mothership discord went to other OSR discord I was in and tried to get me kicked out. I was banned from the mothership discord. To this day I have tried many times to talk with the seemingly friendly devs of Mothership and they wont let me. You either cancel what turned out to be an innocent man or you aren’t one of them. So, after Zak got proof that the girlfriend was lying nothing has changed. Zak is taking everyone to court that tried to cancel him. Most of those devs you’ve probably heard of. The dev of electric Bastionland, the dev of Gardens of Ynn, Mothership, and lots more. I don’t hate the mothership devs, but I’m a customer and was mistreated so every chance I get I warn people about these devs. I’d love to talk with the devs and put this behind us. I’d delete every post I made online, but I know they won’t talk to me. Maybe this new edition will sell enough copies to cover their legal fees when Zak takes them to court.
