Am I crazy or does that screenshot have Japan in it? Why would a Japanese company ban a game about Japan in Japan?
I think America is really good at getting attention so everything good and bad is magnified by how much exposure it gets. So our dumbasses are some of the loudest and best at being noticed for their dumbassery in the whole world.
All of these maps were made with Stars without Number revised edition, or dark heresy first edition in mind. They aren’t super intentionally designed to cater to either of those systems though.
I can certainly try. If I still have the dungeon draft files still I can load the original projects and make both clean and hex versions without much issue
Yeah exactly! I especially find this true for sci-fi. There are some great battlemaps for sci-fi out there, but they tend to depict very similar places in similar settings, as another commenter mentioned, or just be a recreation of something from star wars for the umpteenth time. There’s a place for maps of wildly different locales in sci-fi games. Alien planets have backwater towns too! Not every map needs to be a space station, a hangar, or a cyberpunk city.
Hopefully I’ve helped make a teeny tiny dent in the sci fi map variety issue.
Kind of a pedestrian use case, which might be good for flavoring, but you could make a sweet “air” hockey table out of them. I imagine there being a future version of air hockey that actually magnets in a vacuum. You could basically flavor it as truly frictionsless air hockey, with the games having the puck fly around at incredible speeds.
Assuming that cars, or the preferred method of transportation uses the magnets to get around, you could also have new kinds of Rollerblades and skateboards that use the magnets to travel the infrastructure. Maybe its something that only punk kids do by slapping stolen magnets on planks of wood. They can cause problems as they constantly get in the way of the car users.
You could also flavor the skateboards/ as a corporation backed cost cutting measure. The only people with magnet cars are the elite/ultra rich and everyone else can only afford a magnet scooter or whatever. If you want a really cynical world you could even give right of way to the magnet cars, so common folk would have to dodge them traveling at incredible speeds.
I think there are a ton more examples, but I bet, assuming the super conductor is reliably reproducible, that we will have crazier use cases within a decade IRL than we could dream up here. Probably some weird way to make sprinklers work better or something
To add on, at my work we started getting yubikeys for the people who didnt want Microsoft’s authenticator on their phone and found they still need to download the mfa to set up the yubikey in the first place. So its not a perfect solution if you dont want the authenticator to touch your phone at all.
I can also confirm that the help desk members who are not enlightened about Microsoft will ridicule you for not wanting the MFA even if its reasonable to not want Microsoft on your phone. As much as we think all techs are Linux nerds, I have the opposite at my work. Some of the higher up techs are constantly trying to get people to switch to windows 11…
