Covenant Update for October 30, 2023

Welcome to this week’s free post about Covenant!
This is going to be a short post this week, unfortunately. We had two players out of four tell us that they couldn’t join Sunday’s playtest, so we had to scrub it until next week. That’s a shame, too, because Sean, the Force Majeure, had planned to run the first real spaceship fight in Covenant history Sunday.
Basically, Sazzy in the New Orleans would help the player characters escape. Either they’d pile on to her ship, or she’d give them cover to find a ship in one of the spaceport berths they were trying to break into to escape Sujimma. Sean was hoping that they’d steal a ship. That would give the PCs some independence from Sazzy and the New Orleans, both of which are pretty overpowered for this game. Then they would blast off and into a fight in Sujimma orbit with three Tulwar fighters and a Hammerhead orbital cutter (both from the good folks at Rekanna Industries).
We have some idea of how we’re going to run the fight. We just have to get them down on paper (which is why Sunday’s postponement wasn’t all bad). If you’re subscribed to our Patreon, we’ll give you some details in our patrons-only post on Friday.
That’s about it for now, though. Talk to you next Monday!
