It Came From the Vast! - Where are the biomechanical guns?


Playtest Scenarios Discussion


Trying to make an outer hull layer for the battlemap - but I've searched all through the PDF and there's nothing on the map or within the scenario text that indicates where exactly the biomechanical guns are located on the hull.

Spoiler:
Given that it's a requirement that a PC be adjacent to one of the four starship guns to attempt to sabotage them, and the final combat encounter activates one round after when the party approaches the guns, it's kind of important.

I assume the guns on the ship are ... the guns that will trigger this, the whole ship is biomechanical after all


I have gone with the assumption that the gun-drone things near the center of the map are the ship guns...

According to page 9, the ladders shown on the map are exterior ladders leading along the hull from the airlocks to the starship's weapons - which is to say, yes, the bug-things in the center of the map.


Yeah, I really think there should be an exterior map of the ship to use for the final battle.

For the exterior map, just use the map and ignore the walls and the furnishings other than the ladders and guns.

Honestly it's the interior map that's confusing, since you have to ignore the ladders and guns without telling the players the map does double-duty and they might need to be on the hull later.

A separate map wouldn't have hurt.

They actually made one/altered the map, for the Foundry module, looks really neat.
