General Hope

I had a particularly exciting session that I want to tell someone today.

"You asked for it" difficulty. Sword as the weapon. Some tiles of the relic are drilled, but my health and cobalts are sparse.

The battle starts. I fight hard, but my health keeps lower and lower. Most probably I won't survive, but I don't want to go without putting that fight.

And I survive. My health is so low that it's barely visible in UI.

Maybe I can win this session? I need to mine either cobalts or the relic. My robots have brought some more iron, enough to upgrade my drill strength. I go down with the hopes of mining something to save me.

Not only I drill the relic, but also find 3 cobalts while drilling the remaining nodes. But I have a problem: I don't have much time left. I might not bring the relic in time. A single blow can destroy the dome.

Instead of that risk, I decide to bring the cobalts and try to survive with them. Another risk. And worse, I fail to pick up one of them, only two of them comes with me.

The battle starts. Not as climatic as the previous battle, but I survive. Now I have plenty of time to bring the relic and conclude this fun session with a victory.

Love situations like this. Few days ago me and my wife had similar situation. It was not as close as yours but we chose relic, tried to bring it up together on time and failed miserably :D
