Episode 376: The Prodigal Robot

<<FIRST     <PREVIOUS     NEXT>     LATEST>>

In a game situation, sometimes you need to display knowledge that exceeds your own meagre skills as a player. If you don't personally have the knowhow to do certain things, you can make handy notes and refer to them. For example, the right forms of address to use when greeting nobility; or the correct ratios of ore, coke, and limestone to use when smelting iron; or how to calculate reaction fuel requirements and transfer times between planets using a Hohmann transfer orbit.

Or making apologies and showing contrition.
