Masters of Raana [v0.8.3.3] [GrimDark]

v0.8.3.3

Gameplay changes

• [Game Engine] Increased available save slots from 8 to 12.
• [Locations] Going to The Mastersphere (first class) now increases Palace Rating with 100 points.
• [Sex Engine] Critical rolls during vaginal sex (doggy/missionary) now increase the MC’s Copulation skill up to a maximum of 100.
• [NPC] The toggle armor/clothing button is now personal for each NPC instead of having one global on/off state.
• [NPC] Added Acrobatics, Dancing, Ranged combat and Melee combat to the Conclude Day Log.
• [NPC] It is now much harder to use the Acrobatics homeschooling sessions for increasing DEXTERITY.
• [NPC] Ansel will no longer steal from you (domestic events) if his Respect is 20+.
• [NPC] Tweaked The Black Scorpion enemy capture NPC to be a little less powerful.
• [NPC] Scavengers that are convicts or slaves and have an Affection that is Despising or worse, now receive a significant yield penalty (more or less useless unless they have scavvie trait).
• [NPC] Added new trait: Unbreakable.
• [NPC] NPCs with the Herculean body type (males only) now require Hearty food settings in order to avoid Happiness and Affection drops.
• [NPC] There is now a -15 penalty to your household’s Herald Skill if the Herald is either a convict or a slave.
• [NPC] Janitors that are convicts or slaves and have an Affection that is Despising or worse, or if they are Angry, will now be very bad at performing repair work.
• [NPC ] Slaves/convicts that are assigned as Janitors, with WILLPOWER 10+ will now try to sabotage your household if they are Abhorred- or Angry.
• [HOUSEHOLD] Added Discipline update scripts for external workshops.
• [ECONOMY] You can now sell HULC armors (NPC) to private mercenaries through Redhaven Market contacts. The price scales with the same “remaining HULC armors” variable used at the transit department. Selling a HULC armor will not increase that value, however. This means that looting HULC parts and building a complete set in the late game can be a very rewarding crafting mission.
• [ECONOMY] All armor SELL values are increased if City Control drops below 10 (market demand effect).

Random NPCs

• Added 5 new random male enemy sets (Av312-Av316).
• Added 2 new scripted male enemy/ally set (Av357, Av358).
• Added 25 male and 10 female names.
• Added 10 new last names.
• Added 400 words of random dialogue.

Political events and factions

• Six new main Political events have been added, dealing with rebel and (2nd) republic doings. Some of these master events can split into other outcomes, which gives a total of 12 different flavor events.
• The Republic now gains a daily tax based on random factors, Control and Prosperity.
• Updated Earth’s and Raana’s timelines with more info and additional events.

Jail cell overhaul

• Both jail cell upgrades now provide the same WILLPOWER-lowering effects (20% daily chance).
• The upgraded jail cell will only lower Affection down to Despising (19) instead of Abhorred (9).
• Paragons and ex-paragons have a 10% daily chance of decreasing their WILLPOWER compared other NPCs (20%).
• Slave masters/mistresses now affect imprisoned NPCs if that NPC is assigned to them.
• Tormentor effect: Slave masters/mistresses now have a daily 15% chance of lowering assigned, imprisoned NPCs’ WILLPOWER (down to a minimum of 4) if the slave master doesn’t have the Pure trait and has a Kindness below 50. A Kindness below 25 increases the Tormentor effect to 25%.

New Story NPC: Valerie Borsow
Valerie Borsow is now available at Furry’s Tavern, if you spend a number of nights listening to rumors and socialize with old friends. She comes with a small/medium quest (Amiable+ > Ask about background) that’s similar to the Cyber Cannon riddle – no handholding but with big rewards.

MAIN QUEST: New World Order (part 1 and part 2)
You’re now able to either ignore, help or smother Aria’s rebellion, depending on playstyle. Helping Aria’s cause sets you out on a grand adventure – from stealthy palace missions to high-tech hacking onboard USS Seneca. You’ll also play a vital part in strengthening the rebel faction before its final assault on The Palace.

You can also train and turn in a devoted/corrupted Aria for great rewards and appreciation from the ruling elite of Ikaanos, securing yet another century of Authoritarian rule.

Note! Phase 3 (the last assault) is still WIP, coming in 0.8.3.4.

Increased NPC cap
You’re now able to house 96 NPCs instead of 80. Upgrade the dorms (lvl 3 – $50,000) and receive two extra pages of NPCs to fill out.

Combat overhaul

• Nervous states: NPCs and enemies with WILLPOWER below 5 (25 on Grimdark difficulty) now have a 10% risk of becoming nervous in combat (-50 chance for one round) *if* both their Ranged and Melee skills are below 80.
• Natural marksman: To compensate the growing power of melee combat, the ranged combat skill now scales exactly like STR damage bonus. This scaling begins at *Ranged combat 50+* and is potentially endless. A ranged skill of 120 should provide around 7 extra damage.
• Decreased the maximum damage yield from power strikes (melee combat). Median damage from PS should now be roughly 4-5 points less.
• NPCs with Discipline 24 or less now receive a -10 chance penalty in combat.

New random captives system
Kymanto now offers drunkards, brawlers, unlucky fortune seekers and other rabble to all their licensed slavers. This is a rather new system that’ll be further enhanced in later versions. For this release (0833), we have a semi-scripted randie called Aaron, who also introduces a completely new trait (Berserker).

Follower groups
You can now assign up to six different follower groups and switch between each group with just one click. All *current* followers are automatically reassigned to old jobs when dismissed. Switching groups can be performed at home or when in Redhaven unless you build the Stables (horse lvl. 2+).

• Releasing Aria from slavery will now give her the Paragon status. Note! Releasing Aria before finishing her quest might break the Slavemasters of Raana event chain!

Attribute depletion (MC)
Reaching 0 in either Strength, Stamina or Dexterity, from injuries or old age, now means Game Over.

Master traits
The MC can now gain *Master Traits* by reaching specific skill, attribute and quest-related thresholds.

• Master of War provides increased combat damage.
• Master Tactician provides bonuses to combat followers and penalties to enemies.

New skill: Occult
The MC has been given a new skill that determines his knowledge about Raana’s esoteric forces. Read more here.

Ironman mode
You can now enable an “Ironman” mode either in the Character Creation Process or through the Option > Mods > Ironman setting. Enabling Ironman means that any NPC who reaches -10 Health Points during combat situations is immediately killed and removed from the game.

New titles

• Nurse: You’re now able to assign any number of NPCs as nurses. A nurse will heal your and your other NPCs’ Health and Happiness, based on her Discipline and Medicine skill. A healing action costs $5/NPC (sterile wash, bandages and other equipment). She’ll also remove up to 20 sexual wear points (of each type) if that type is 20+. You have to own enough ointments for this effect to be active.
• Head chef: The head chef is a unique assignment that’ll control your household’s culinary atmosphere. It’s a title that carries great responsibility – make sure to give it to an NPC that you can trust.

Combat overhaul

• Added a new injector tendstim type that can be used in combat situations. Number of uses per turn depends on your group’s total Medicine skill (60+ adds 1 use, 100+ adds 2 uses). You’re able to purchase combat injectors at The Mastersphere.
• Added combat injector tendstims to various loot drops in and around Ikaanos.
• Revamped the special attacks/actions section.
• NPCs can now be equipped with the WEGA auto cannon (Cyber cannon). The Ammo Pack Trait does not affect WEGA cannister depletion.

New world section: The Mastersphere
The MC can now take the shuttle from *The Palace* district and travel off-world to the ancient spaceship U.S.S. Seneca, also known as The Mastersphere.

An established and/or wealthy kingpin can purchase unique items and acquire powerful implants at this location. He can also stay over night and enjoy the luxuries of U.S.S. Seneca’s Recreational facilities.

The Mastersphere will be expanded further in future updates – with new decks and locations opening up for Aria’s grand questline coming in 0.8.3.3.

Overhauled Health systems
The Max Health attribute has been completely overhauled for the MC and all NPCs. The attribute is now calculated in a similar fashion for both “parties”, which removes the current over-patched NPC toughness/Build framework and the MC’s permanent and untrainable $mastermaxhealth variable.

Health is now calculated through STRENGTH + STAMINA + Body value (10-125), divided by 2. Various implants and traits are added after this calculation.

This means:

• All NPCs will have their Health set to max when the new calculation executes. This only happens once, at Home, when you start an old save.
• Most NPCs start with *slightly* more max Health.
• All NPCs can be fitted with Health implants from Doctor’s Hall (NPC Menu > Actions > Doctor’s hall). Note that NPCs still wont accept getting cut open unless their Affection is Loving+.
• All accumulated/grinded Max HP points will be removed now that the toughness variable is a *based-on value* instead of a separate attribute.
• It is now generally much less time-consuming to increase an NPC’s max health.
• The Max Health attribute is very easy to mod; for various difficulty settings, new implants, new traits, etc.

Art

• Added 11 Inspect pics for Kelly.
• Added 6 wardrobe pics for Kelly.

• Added 25 wardrobe pics for Av40.
• Added 11 Inspect pics for Av40.
