They're extra sources of Lore on expeditions and they might have useful bonuses. And tbh, in the 2 Study AP plans, the priority of the last two spots in the list don't matter that much. It just boils down to oneshot -> study Moth artifact, twoshot -> Study Manehattan book
But yes, with the...
I'm really not seeing how we don't just put it as Moth 3 if we oneshot, Manehattan book if we 2shot and do 2 study actions. With those numbers on the Priority 1 artifacts and the Moth 5 book spending 3 study actions to get to the knock 2 artifact seems unjustifiable compared to teaching rarity...
Tell you what I'll make you a plan for that.
Got to show off to our daughters minions.
[] Killing Changelings in the Name of the Moon

-[] The delights of subservience (Leash currently targeting: NO TARGET)...
Alright then. New math!
Rolling X + 40 (Influence) + 20 (Lantern 4) + 14 (Learning) + 10 (Average Bonus From Artifact), with +5 (Well-Read) and -50 for Moth book
If reroll is spent on Moth 5 book:
~82% chance of first-trying it (opens slot for extra artifact study)
~99.8% chance of getting it...
Wait wait wait, why can’t that be a write-in for Softy! Take her and her friends on a little field trip! Give them a glimpse of what the noble heroes of the Lunar Bureau get up to! It’s take your daughter to work day, Bird! :V
Man, re-reading the previous vote, I was so sad we voted for uncool cannibalism as opposed to cool cannibalism. Now that's the hedonic treadmill right there — you get what you want, and you can't help but wanting more…
Mareinette would be proud.
Though really I'm sad we're not heading into...
It's been a while but I think I did. It's just that I have forgotten by now.
Double checking.
20 (lore application) + 14 (learning) + 40 (lantern influence) + (5 to +15) (SH artifact) = 79 to 89 bonus for artifacts
Artifact DC 90
So roll 1 to 11 or better
20 (lore application) + 14...
Slightly higher due to Well Read and our artifact bonus from the SH 3 book (We've had minions use it for rituals and use it ourselves for studying in the same turn before)
I didn't check the math on everything, just the Moth 5 book and the Lantern 4 artifact since those are the Important Things, but:
Rolling X + 40 (Influence) +20 (Lantern 4) +14 (Learning), with -50 for Moth book
If reroll is spent on Moth 5 book:
~72% chance of first-trying it (opens slot for...
I would be very surprised if the new civilisation has any significant cultural similarities to old Kryptonian. These are people who were dumped in purgatory, some for petty or made-up crimes, and when they finally got out it was to find their people all died because they were too stupid to save...
The main benefit to 3x study action is the Moth 3 artifact.
2 study: Lantern and Winter artifacts and Moth 5 book almost certainly, Moth 3 artifact only if we lucksack hard. Manehattan book probable if no Moth 3 artifact. (oneshot the Moth book for moth artifact, 2shot for manehattan book)
3...
Iirc there’s some vaguely annoying thing here because of Lantern Sacrament efficiencies (3 Books OR 2 artefacts OR artefact + book) we kinda need to split this out…
And hey we should definitely rank Manehattan book above low level artefacts, we’ve learned expeditions are extremely good value...
I'm guessing you're talking about "Beyond the Map's Edge", for Baldomare's SH Sacrament? Not this turn, and I don't believe it's exceptionally dangerous, based on its description. Baldomare's busy giving us a Lantern Influence this turn, so she can't offer us Sacrament, but it's a definite...
