Er well part of it.

So a quick guide to the Goddesses:

For ease of reference I added a link to this to the first story post. I think it'll be helpful to be able to find it again quickly.

Thank you Night.

[X] Save the XP

I think we should bank up the XP to buy the next shop ability instead of smaller upgrades for now.

Armored Core: Steel will make us even harder to kill again, on top of No Longer Human and the previous Armored Core/Core Containments....but I think if we want our team to fully keep up, we're looking at Reequip.

Question. Does anyone know a good place I can go to make myself a representative map of the Local Dimensional Cluster?

I was thinking of using hexagons to represent dimensions but the only website I could find to make a map like that required downloading something and I don't want to dl anything to so something so trivial.

Suggestions?

...Minecraft? If you build a big room and use a single block for each dimension world, it could work.

But that'd require a lot of digging and I'm lazy

(I also don't own Minecraft o that kinda wrecks it as well.)

They have a free "original" version that's basically basic creative mode, for basic constructions like this.

Might look into it.

Any other suggestions?

Paint program? If it's a technical thing instead of an artistic thing (supposed to inform us, not necessarily to look pleasant, that is), then just drawing a bunch of circles and labeling them (with little connected lines, of course) would make just as much sense as a vast artistic endeavor.

That's what I'm leaning towards right now. Might mock one up tomorrow before I write the next segment.

If you guys ever take a look into the more strategic aspects of the war I'll use it as a base for the general battle map.

In the meantime. Some good music:

Microsoft Powerpoint could work as well, just use a white / black theme, shapes and text boxes.

Perhaps draw.io will be useful? It's not exactly a mapping program, but if you're just trying to represent connections between dimensions it might work.

I decided to just use hexographer to make the damn thing. So...

The Tree is Akashic Pillar. Star is Earth.

Dark Green are the Fairy Home Realms. The star is their capital.

Light Green is the Elvin Empire. Again, star is their capital.

The mountains with the white top is Heaven.

Red mountains are Hell.

Dark Grey area is the Children of Nightmare.

Black area is Black Star. (duh)

And the white zones are the Unaligned Front.

Might make a dedicated legend later.

She's not quite that strong. To actually move something through Time (safely) requires a level of power that if you reach it your dealing with different problems entirely in this setting.

Anyway, closing voting in twenty minutes.

Last minute votes or Omakes need to be posting if you want them to count/provide experience.

So we're that light gray hexagon in the middle? Does that mean our entire universe is a giant spinny star-tree?

No, that's the Akashic Pillar's representation/flag/what ever the fuck you want to call it.

It signifies that universe is under our control/protection/ownership directly.

Mind cropping the image so that there isn't so much blank space below the diagram?

Also, looks like a game board of Settlers of Catan

Due to the tie, defaulting to saving the your EXP.

Only just realized I had gotten completely side tracked and forgot to write the update.
