>What is this?
/TG/ DEVELOPED A GAME
IT IS PLAYABLE. IT HAS BEEN PLAYED.
EXPEDITION is a ~1880s era, Jules Verne-inspired retro-futurist, underground blood soaked adventurescape.
It is a Skirmish wargame. Two players with their own expeditions, on a hexgrid map, explore & fight each other for victory and profit.

3 versions of the rules exist, 2 of which have been playtested. The main one is 2e, to be found :

as with maps, tokens and lore resources.

>What can I do?
Shitpost, meme, get comfy. Read over the docs to settle in.
Familiarize yourself with rules and ask for an intro game or participate in playtests. If you are interested in designing a faction for a wargame, this is the place.
Contribute if you have ideas. Give feedback on contributions if you don't.

>TQ: Are there any unit profiles still not added to the books?

>UNITS WITH RULES WHICH DO NOT APPEAR IN ANY BOOKS:
-Time Stranded Contractor
-Gurkha Merc (not an Aux? Chart implies merchood)
-Smenticyst Ploluph (May be in a book, didn't see it in the Flora bestiary which is where I expected it to be)
-Akamnandag
-Unpainted Mystery Unit (I argue that this should be used as the example unit in the corebook because otherwise it has no place)
-Unhusked Janny
-Lion Guard (Might be in a book on TTS)
-Unhusked Exile (Might be in a book on TTS or the vile application, can't find in mediafire. The Ottoman Officer fills a similar role)
-Cave Merchant (In the book, but not done yet)
-Reformed Gorg
-Man Bull
-El Lince
-Punt Gunner
-Thunder Mole

Any others?

I'm pretty sure the Battlefield Photographer is incomplete, though that one is in the book.

Now that's a whole other bundle of fish. Compiling a list of those ones will take a bit more time as there are a fair few.
>>
>>97784058
I mean, off the top of my head I can think of the Tribal Lord and Rakkad. Now that we have a list of units in the books, I can imagine it's just a matter of going over and looking for units marked in red.
>>
Ok, a quick check to the books in the TTS, these are the things I've found.

>Minister Eiffel
"Hidraulic Ligaments" needs to specify how much armor takes away

>Tsardom Faction
Mercenary followers in red, no special faction traits

>BMR-f Gun
Incompete (rule stun marked in red)

>Austro-Hungary faction
Faction mercenaries marked in red, only 2 faction traits, Sponsors rules in red

>PKZ-0
Incomplete (special rules incomplete in red)

>German Faction
"Luftkommando" faction trait has no price

>Oberleutnant
Incomplete (no traits, alcohol marked red)

>Unterseeboote
Weapon incomplete (H1U torpedoe marked in red)

>Artilleriegruppe C-93
Incomplete (longitude marked in red)

>Spain faction
Mercenary followers in red (should they take husked conquistadors?)

>El Tribunal del Santo Oficio de la Inquisición
Should it have Skirmisher?

>Sebastianist Grand inquisitor
Outdated (still has the rules pre-nerf)

>Sebastianist Preacher
"Putting one's faith to the test" is badly worded.

>Krupp Breach Loading Cannon
It needs more movement

>Danish faction
No intro, no mercenaries

>Eider Officer
Incomplete (fluff blurb)

>The Krigsveteran; Hans Bjelke; Eugene Warming; Jutland Pastor; Bergen Correspondent
Incomplete (opt equipment in red)

It says "labourer" instead of worker

Incomplete (Atlan Battlefield Engineering)

>Titanium Golem
Incomplete ("in his image" rule is not written)

>Lady Pythivati

>Hyperborea faction

>Oliver Cromwell
Oliver Cromwell and the Returned Noble have the same token

>Derelict Tripod

Chimp Charger
TTS TOKEN DOES NOT WORK
>>
>>97787712
>Deepfolk faction
Incomplete (has no faction traits)

>Tribal Figure
Tribal Figure and Local Chieftain have the same token

>The Returned Noble
Incomplete (underground lord rule) Oliver Cromwell and the Returned Noble have the same token

>Local Chieftain
Incomplete (FULL RED) Tribal Figure and Local Chieftain have the same token

>Aeronaut Professor
Incomplete (anomalist rule)

>Clockwork Scout
Incomplete (pre-programmed)

>Cave Merchant

This not counting the units not in the book.

Also, if we edit the books, we ought to have their own tags to the units (the "british" tag to all british units, the "french" tag to all the french units, and so on).

An important step with this is to see if 2eAnon is around right now, since he's got the keys to the TTS.

Hopefully this painting of an Amazon will summon him.
>>
>>97787742
The NPC units could get more tags (almost none of the "colonial criminals" have tags).

Proposal for the "Damn Dane" unit.

It might be possible to put "armed to the teeth" in the loadout section by just having "1 melee and 1 ranged available" to clear up the profile. Then again, it might be clearer to keep it where it is currently.

I like the dark forest rule for theming, especially in tandem with the common rule combo.

Mutiny Scenario: You may not activate more models than you have Dread, however 1LP may be spent to activate a model ignoring this rule.

Also, what do we do with La Ombre book?
>>
>>97792097
I think as-is it's in a good place. Their recruitment gimmick (and the Lost men's) means that they do not need an especially large book. All they really would need is a pass for any rules updates since their initial release and a format update.
>>
Also, I just realized this is the 100th thread. Time flies.
>>
>>97795644
Are you sure? In the archive we skip from 60 to 63, then we do 70 twice, then we double up 87 before switching back to 83, and we just did 98 twice too.
By my count I think we're around 97.
>>
>>97795904
Sure, the list is in the Googledoc.

The Local Library's laser cutter has been down for maintenance and retraining and mysterious other reasons since Christmas, but after months of waiting I have finally been able to cut out the rest of the hexes I need for a map. I spent some time tonight test fitting and I'll definitely need to sand down a lot of edges and set the exterior board itself on a rigid backing before everything will fit properly. If my math is right I should have enough for a whole map's worth of terrain plus walls and a few other fun surprises. By painting the board backing blue or black I can also save on needing pit tiles or water tiles respectively.
