The year is 2254. The Terran Alliance has ruled space unchallenged for the last 30 years. The Outer Sphere's resistance lies scattered across the Sol System, their military thoroughly annihilated, their adherents quietly forming small communities where they can.

But the Outer Sphere preserved one, small hope before they were crushed: a hidden station housing the last two surviving Leviathans. These giant, sentient mecha lie in hibernation, hoping their Eidolon Drives will once again be awakened by worthy pilots.

The Terran Alliance has spent these 3 decades hunting these lost weapons down, knowing that if they were to ever rise again, even Earth itself would no longer be safe.

One final podcast for 2025, to ring in The Month of Threadspinner!

On this episode, we get serious about how quickly the deadline to a playable first draft of the game is getting, and get cracking on getting this bad boy ready for primetime. We start by working out the details of The Hero, one of the first playbooks—sorry, patterns—we came up with for this game, and in so doing identify the blank spots we still need to fill in.

And because there's still a lot of blank spots, we also resolve to (try to) put up a new Design Session every single week in January to get this thing over the finish line!

🎶 I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
