Underground Stage (ep2) A tentative ceasefire comes together, as the group discovers a sort of subterranean base and a secretive 5th faction with their own agenda. They get repairs and upgrades and a not entirely well-considered offer before yet again, unexpected occurrences force them into action.

Test Stage (ep1) We met our billionaire overlords and the unfortunate pilots they've sent out to a remote island battle ground to put their experimental gigantic robots through their paces. The PvP is intense, there's some immediate alliances and rivalries formed and things go awry quite quickly.

Twitch creators appear to be adding 'aioptedout' to their content tags to help indicate to audiences that they have toggled it off. Twitch CPO Mikey Minty was asked about an "opted in/out indicator" yesterday and said they had no plans to implement one for viewers.

Look at the world around you right now... Laws are clearly not here to hold the powerful to account. They are here to trick you into compliance, make you believe the powerful care. Laws constrain what you can do and how but to those with resources, they can pick and choose how they apply.

End Stage Mechaclysm is a big robot game using my own super simple Crit Core system (SRD to be finalised and released "soon"). We're going to be on the forefront of class war, taking on the world, the system, and everything that could possibly be thrown at giant machines, starting with each other!
