Mothership RPG in 1 rule

What does Mothership's death save tell us about the game?

Just in case you were like me and got obsessed with that portable scanner/printer, it's the Silver Reed Portacopy

Usually videos about tabletop RPGs, especially from smaller channels, are a guy sitting in front of a camera and just talking off the cuff for twenty or so minutes. Not this one. Succinctly written, beautifully edited and shot, easily one of the most compelling ttrpg videos I've seen

[tryrexman]

played mothership for a whole campaign once
the entire chat was full of "IT'S SO OVER" or "WE'RE SO BACK" every 4 minutes

To borrow a quote: “Space is where expensive stuff goes to break”.

i remember MANY comments saying that we live in an age where some random dude could out-perform a whole company in terms of media quality. this was another example of that, just on a different layer

crazy just how little passion is appreciated compared to fame or cash

[PlainclothesBandit]

I've only had the chance to play Mothership once during a convention, but it somehow managed to so thoroughly capture my imagination that I purchased and kickstarted multiple third-party supplements and adventures that I may never get the chance to play. It manages to squeeze maximum tone and style in as few pages as possible.

The fact this is only 3:40 in length is amazing. SO many other videos stretch themselves out to ten minutes, making bad jokes and plugging products/websites

And yet, I learned a lot. Well done

[artistpoet]

Sounds like fun. I listened to a few reviews of the game and it all sounded like the 'same old sci-fi'. This one actually has me interested in giving it a try.

[-HazardPay-ruii]

A perfect summary! I'll be sharing this with my c-levels and various underlings

[lucasromay]

I can't believe this is now like one of my favorite videos in any ttrpg and it's less than 4 minutes long, just incredibles vibes and production, would love to see more of this

[GreekSoloRPG]

The artistic purpose and creativity of this video is so compelling. Instant sub. Without conscious thought, pure instinct. And then I got lost in your shorts! Thanks for the inspiration!

[Speakers_]

This is such a fantastic, beautifully made video that not only makes me want to watch mothership but certainly look out for other videos you come out with in the future!

[ionvancleave]

I needed something to add to Spelljammer to really make the nightmares pop. THANKS.

Unfortunately during my first and only session of Mothership, we didn't get to use that rule.
All of us still died though, probably.
Two in a hyperspace ram maneuver in a desperate attempt to seal something sinister,
one to buy the other two time.
The space hulk is still flying through the endless void, charted for the sun.
With luck, it'll just be another three names on an incident report.

My dude, I dunno who you are or what this channel is actually about (something sinister I'd wager), but this little video is oozing with atmosphere I find hard to describe. I pray in due time more are to come out of this Alfred Valley.

[digital-alchemist]

Nice. Been thinking about picking up Mothership. Love the death save mechanic. Definitely adds to the tension, harshness, and realism. Great video!

[harryknight]

A fantastically well put together video, up there if not surpassing a lot of the "big name" channels. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do next!

[Blizzic]

This video rules! I’ve come back to it like three times already.

By the way, I know you’ve got people down here asking for the source of every single moment of this video, but I was wondering where you got that sound byte you played right at the beginning of the man talking about docking with the mothership?

[amanisalone]

Alfred you are amazing. You brought me into mothership and I’m happy to say that now I can’t get out

[MenschWerdeWesentlich]

What everybody else said: Incredibly well done and stylish video, mate! No idea, what awaits me on your channel, but I'm subbed by virtue of this short video alone. You could/should be going places.
