  • Hawk can blind and cripple enemies. It also can dodge the first 8 attacks made against it.

    This is amazing in the Halls for fighting Scorpios and Evil Eyes. The hawk can outright kill a Scorpio because Scorpios don’t attack in melee range, so the hawk closes the gap while dodging everything, then cripples the Scorpio and hits it with melee. Also, you can catch up and melee it or hit it with ranged weapons.

    Same with Evil Eyes. It blinds them so they can’t zap you. They will eventually zap the hawk when it runs out of free dodges, but I have hawks last until it naturally time-out many times, scouting and crippling things.

    It can take a little bit of micromanagement to use well, but it’s really not bad.






  • Let me spoil the events of the first chapter or two of We Are Legion.

    Spoiler

    Guy gets rich making an app and selling it to Google (or whoever). On the way home, as a joke, he takes some of the money and signs up for a company that freezes your head after death. He is immediately hit by a car and dies.

    Fast forward 200 years: he wakes up!

    Turns out his consciousness is not in his brain at all. He’s in a computer. They stick him in a deep space probe and launch him into space. This is a special probe that can self-replicate at the atomic level. He can literally clone his (probe) body and consciousness.

    Then shenanigans happen.

    It’s a really good series.

    For better or worse, you can’t just make a normal-looking list in markdown. It all runs together into a single paragraph. You have to add two spaces to the end of each line in order to keep the line breaks. Or you could add an asterisk and space at the front of each line for a bulleted list.
