Planetary Roll Thread

[Honors Bastion]

Please post below and I will roll for you what random traits your planet will get based on the following:

When a player’s own system is generated, they may request a re-roll for one of the following three rolled characteristics. As an example, you could re-roll the type of World, but would then have to abide by the dice for population and wealth.

World Type - D20

1 - Garden: +10% manpower regen, -10% system income. 2-5 - Terrestrial: +10% manpower. 6-9 - Oceanic: +10% system income, -10% manpower. 10-14 - Arctic: +2 to defence rolls. -5% manpower, -5% manpower regen. 15-19 - Desert: +10% system income, -5% manpower, -5% manpower regen. 20 - Lava: +20% system income, -10% manpower, -5% manpower regen.

Population Size - D20

1-4 - Tiny: -15% manpower, -10% manpower regen, -10% system income. 5-8 - Small: -5% manpower, -5% manpower regen, -5% system income. 9-12 - Balanced: No modifier. 13-16 - Large: +5% manpower, +5% manpower regen, +5% system income. 17-20 - Massive: +15% manpower, +10% manpower regen, +10% system income.

Productivity and Wealth - D20

1-4 - Impoverished: +10% system income, -10% trade income. 5-8 - Poor: +5% system income, -5% trade income. 9-12 - Solvent: No modifier. 13-16 - Wealthy: +5% trade income, -5% system income. 17-20 - Opulent: +10% trade income, -10% system income.

The following characteristics are faction-specific. Only Custodians are able to run alien slave colonies, while Magnates reserve the privilege of an Imperial blessing to use penal labor.

Alien Slave Colonies - D20

1-6 - Small Slave Colony: +5% system income, +5% trade income. 7-13 - Medium Slave Colony: +10% system income, +10% trade income. 14-20 - Large Slave Colony: +15% system income, +15% trade income. Custodian systems also have a 50% chance of containing Alien Ruins. If this succeeds, roll a D4. This many ruins are acquired.

Penal Labour Operations

1-10 - Small Penal Colony: +5% system income, +5% trade income. 11-20 - Large Penal Colony: +10% system income, +10% trade income.

Please note that i will not be rolling the last two unless you meet the Faction requriement.

UPDATE:

Please provide your system name and faction when applying.

[Oznerol]

Dorsum system, please HB.

*Crosses fingers*

I have so bad luck with rolls and I DO desire a Garden Planet!

[Pinkerton]

I'd like to point something out to the mods.

While "World Type" and "Productivity and Wealth" have both pluses and minuses, "Population Size" only grants pluses. Making it an obvious decision, despite what you got in the other categories, to change it to the "Massive" level.

So it is totally unbalanced.

True, their should be drawbacks to a "large" and "massive" population as GR originally envisioned.

[The Mad Skylord]

Roll for one planet please.

That's being fixed as we speak. There were actually two problems here. One as you mentioned, that there were no direct negatives to the 'population" one but two was mod confusion as well. We had discussed several options before this that had more rolls to it and I didn't realize that the rule's still stated "to pick one of them freely". That will be changed shortly to one reroll with some other changes.

[General Retreat]

Just an update on this - in light of the above, we're rephrasing the selection process so you may request a reroll on one characteristic instead of outright picking one. Population size can also be considered to have 'hidden' attributes, in that they contribute to the revolt mechanic Condotierri use.
