I get you, which is why expectations should change here instead of rolling over and giving up. Let's backburn this one for now.
Here's what I think we can do:
—Instead, I'll host a very small game before this one launches. You can co-host alongside me.
—I'll go ask some experienced players if they'd be willing to coach players like Ral and Luka and sign up for a small trial simulation to guide them.
—If we only get 3-4 inexperienced newbies, c'est la vie. I honestly think 7 max would be ideal to get the show on the road faster to see what the future holds.
—Start 'em off with a Mountainess setup, then we can dive into mech next time if this takes flight.
I'm gonna start condtructing the setup and roles tomorrow.
