This is one of those features I sorely want, to be able to organize wtf I'm doing in my home, but also asking for it makes me kind of feel like a colossal faggot who's missing the point of the game. But also the game is very mechanical and fiddly, so having SOMETHING would be nice. Shoot I'll organize them myself, and I suspect/know there are some features you unlock later to do that, but that doesn't help me get there. That said, playing the maps and enemies well is worth way more than +1 to a given stat, so I might be overly sperging about the quality of my eugenics program given I've barely cracked Act 2.

I think the eugenics program is a way to mitigate awful RNG and let you have a little bit of cushion on classes that normally have a glaring weakness (Druids with that awful -2 CON, Cleric with -1 SPD, etc.) Also it allows you to preselect useful traits beforehand via inheritance which also eliminates the RNG there, or lets you have wacky ones you otherwise can't access normally.

My second try at the Moon didn't go so well, lost my cleric early due to some really shitty interactions between charm and those faggot crater plants that is daddy sharks but somehow worse. It was all downhill from there with only three cats.

E: Kaiju fight went alright though. Brought 3 useless cats (which was useless mostly because I forgot I dont have the items that enabled their broken combo) and 1 MVP Hunter who singlehandedly shredded 400-500 hp on his lonesome.

Was listening to an interview Edmund gave where he said the next DLC is going to have 4 classes and hinted that one of them might be a gunslinger. I can't even think of what the others would be but given the obvious DnD inspirations, maybe a mounted class?

WHAT IF YOU COULD HAVE HIM MOUNT OTHER CATS? AND THAT'S HOW HIS ABILITIES WORK?
STACKING 2 CATS TOGETHER, 3 CATS. A FUCKING TOWER.
PLEASE FAT BALD MAN. IT COULD WORK.

AND PLEASE ADD CAT RAPE, IM TIRED OF FAG CATS BEING A GENETIC DEAD END
 
lmao

The fight doesn't end when he dies since you have to cultist cleanup so you can slap the collar on. No idea if he actually follows you, it was my first win so I was forced back to the house.

The class gets an extra equipment slot for the trenchcoats your stack of 3 cats can wear

I have an image in my head of a cat directedly in front of a damn rat, he's out of moves, but the mount cat gets his ass tossed on said cat,
and gets an auto rush attack to any nearby enemies.

Call it MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE
it already feels good to land on some fuck with the tank, it'd feel WAY better if there was an entire class dedicated
to riding your team and enemies into shit.
 
Had a mix of a very strong run and a weak one. My psychic had the necro Soul Link trait and got Twiddle (no damage but 2 extra attacks), so he could inflict soul link 3 times a turn. Add an item that gives attack leech, and multi enemy fights were kinda trivial. Though the coven candles can't get soul link, but fortunately I had Old Hose.

Joining this legend were 3 misfits. A thief with the shadow clone, which could be good but also ended up stabbing my own units in the back. Next a Tinkerer who had a trait which caused him to explode and go to a random tile, which honestly felt more like a disorder, and who's only real benefit was nurse bots and being able to buff a slingshot. Finally, a Monk with not much damage who died to an infinite with Cherbernubs because it would attack after it was moved.

Needless to say, an interesting run at the very least.

I'm very curious to see just how wacky you can get with cross-class skills, there's gotta be some really really degenerate stuff you can do.

Has anyone considered hyper beam + blood frenzy...?

I love the hyper beam spell. I recently had a run with ice aspect plus the ice block spell with hyper beam+, so my mage could essentially lockdown enemies and orbital strike them for free. Even without that free win combo getting to land it reliably isn't hard, melee enemies will always try to move to the tile closest to your team (you can manipulate this) or 50/50 the tile with ranged enemies. Also, I wouldn't trust the AI with my life to use hyper beam, it feels like it would walk right onto it eventually.​

one of my best cats with a rare great mutation, only had one son before dying,
that son was a faggot who who only attempts to breed with males,
i know realize how disappointed my parents must feel all the time.

You should get your cat a breedable femboy you can identify them by the ? symbol. I don't know what to do about your parents though as traps can't make babies in real life
 
Finally unlocked the Path of the Void.
I can now die in peace.

I hate Bumblefoot.
Hate!
 
Holy SHIT I just fucked up Zatarana in two rounds. My tank and fighter were both immune to knockback, tanky, able to attack a lot, and had stuff that made them apply a shitton of bleed and bruise, so by the end of turn 1 it had 15 bruise and 60 bleed on it, and every time anything attacked it, the knockback-immune cats around it (who also counterattacked) would make the rocks it spewed out bounce back onto it and do a bunch more damage. I don't even know what it was actually supposed to do because it spent so much time immobilized, confused, and dead

Meanwhile my winged cancer ridden cat has dozens of descendants that all inherited his wings.

I'm close to the point where the only non-winged cats are strays or the descendants of cancercats teammates.
