Such an awesome game.  Thanks GDC!  But we lost so much talent with the twenty (20) 2018 graduates, more than half the team.  Does the team still have the right stuff?  Are we worthy?  Is institutional knowledge stronger than high turnover?  Will the next generation step up and make its mark?

I guess we'll see.  Stay tuned.

DEWBOT XV Build

Such an awesome game. Thanks GDC! But we lost so much talent with the twenty (20) 2018 graduates, more than half the team. Does the team still have the right stuff? Are we worthy? Is institutional knowledge stronger than high turnover? Will the next generation step up and make its mark?

I guess we'll see. Stay tuned.

Design Details

HAB Climb Lift
HAB Docking, earning at least 15 HAB Climb Bonus Points, earns an alliance a ranking point. A Level 3 climb allows one alliance partner to earn 12 points by itself, so a 3 point Level 1 climb by another partner is all that's needed to achieve HAB Docking. Our HAB Climb Lift is designed to reliably enable a Level 2 or 3 climb.
