This in a female voice. Also, strap a face gem in the tip of our snout as a flawless disguise. For SuGaBa, we should equate the sensor data trap to an unwinnable Caiman game.

Big ol' update Lots happening this time. Doing the Huntergatherer plan but instead of not pretending to be a gemface, we're pretending to be a gemface. Yesterday's page, completed:  We'll try to report in. Page 55:  We got some gems:  And since we have that alien shuttle, we turn to 309:  Where a severe rear end-kicking awaits. She's a better shot than we are and has slightly more health than we do currently. (We can take 2 more hits before dying, she can take 3). We have more FISTS than her though. I had to roll this fight a few times because with our lousy stats and low health she killed us like 4 times. In the end I rolled up a victory and we got 1 injury, leaving us at death's door. The fight took 24 of our energy leaving us with a bit under half. But hey, onwards! to... this. 255:   So, uh...thoughts? I'd also like to introduce you to our new valet. I randomly chose from the 4 unassigned Caimen and 2 unassigned geckos. We got this guy:  He sucks. He'll be available for use once we enter the jump and won't contribute to CRAPULENCE until after the next check, but just leting you know he exists. Starship manifest:

Considering it's a sphinx we should get the jump on it by asking a question through the external loudspeakers, something like "Do you even grift?" Then focus the overpowered external speakers on the sphinx's head (this is a human ship, so probably has a stupidly powerful stereo system) and shatter its eyegem with a sick guitar solo.

Also check for Hugh Mann in the back, since he was probably too drunk to heed the evac order. He looks like he can totally sort of play the solo to Stairway...or used to but he hasn't been practicing lately.

Mr. Skull is way too cheap to do anything like this. Tomb (1985) was pretty much the only one in the series to make a large amount of sales (fundamentalist Christians really liked it for the premise) and one particular sect of religious nuts released an unauthorised "revised and expanded" edition. It included the entire text of the New Testament and also a few of the item and character cards had little cardboard mechanisms built inside which allowed the items to "transform". Since they were even more fragile than most of the notoriously flimsy 2FF stuff most of those cards are long disintegrated. The rare, banned, ridiculously expensive and very rudely named Void Racers "Rube jabroni mark nerd fatbody spendthrift dickhead luxury box set" edition also had a couple of these cards, and maybe I managed to snag one of those. Update: Yesterday's page, complete:  We wanted to make a lame pass at the Sphinx followed by killing, so let's do that on 159:  This is not that tough a fight because we're in a spaceship and the monster isn't, but the three round limit makes it kind of hard. I get us killed once or twice before winning in two rounds. The Supergalactic takes 2 HULL damage because we're letting off fusion weapons and gem beams and whatnot indoors. Anyway, we win. Turning to 112:  These aliens have surrendered to us, which is a bad idea in general. How shall we express our famously merciful and benevolent nature?

I wasn't going to because I didn't want to ruin the card but I feel kind of pressured now.  Here's the current Starship Manifest:

Initiate gun control and have all the Bijoux military disarmed. If their weapons are worth a drat they could be useful. Recall the crew and check on SuGaBa to see if he is done with whatever he was glitched out on.

Everybody feast on the Sphinx! Broadcast to the entire Bijoux system that we're in charge now. Hold up the big gem face of their former leader as proof. Have them actually upgrade our systems and poo poo. Share hyperdrive technology with them, and ready a fleet. Take whatever we can get off them, and let's get the hell out of this system.
