Hacker Sandman – An E-war specialist aboard a GMS Chomolungma, disrupting enemy systems and controlling the battlefield. Close Fire Support Chivalric – In a GMS Sagarmatha, focuses on suppressive fire to keep enemies pinned and support allies. Assault Specialist Black Hole – Pilots a flexible GMS Everest with a shotgun, excelling at aggressive flanking and adaptable combat. E-Security Specialist Cabernet – Uses a GMS Chomolungma to provide support, defensive systems, and tactical battlefield management for the squad.

Preparing for the session

Before the game begins, players should make sure they have the following ready. You’ll need a Discord account, as all sessions will use Discord for voice and communication. Make sure your microphone is working and you’re familiar with basic Discord functions like mute/unmute and push-to-talk if needed. You’ll also need Chrome for Foundry Virtual Tabletop, which works best in this browser. Make sure it’s installed and updated to the latest version, and that hardware acceleration is enabled. Other browsers may work, but Chrome ensures the smoothest experience. Finally, you’ll need to join the Discord server for this campaign. Instructions and an invite link will be provided once you’ve booked your seat. No additional preparation is required. All characters and mechs are pre-generated, and all rules will be guided by the GM during play. Just bring your focus, curiosity, and readiness for action!

What Quiescent Solun brings to the table

As the GM, my primary goal is to help you learn and enjoy Lancer while diving into the story and action. All characters and mechs are pre-generated, so you won’t need to worry about building or optimising anything. I’ll guide you through all the rules, mechanics, and tactical options as they come up, helping you understand how the system works in real-time so you can focus on strategy, teamwork, and roleplay. Expect an immersive experience: I use voice acting and character voices for key NPCs, and I enhance scenes with ambient music and sound effects to match the mood of the jungle, city, or combat. Combat is tactical and engaging, but I embrace the Rule of Cool, if you have a creative idea or bold maneuver, I’ll work with you to make it exciting and cinematic, while also showing how Lancer handles such moments. You can expect a GM style that is friendly, narrative-focused, and adaptable. My goal is to teach you Lancer through play, encourage creativity and teamwork, and ensure everyone at the table has fun while discovering the system’s depth and possibilities.

How Quiescent Solun creates a safe table

Player safety and comfort are a top priority. Before the session, you’ll be sent a Google Sheet with Lines and Veils options so you can indicate any content you’d like to avoid or handle carefully. This lets you set boundaries privately and at your own pace before play begins. During the session, we’ll respect those choices fully. If anything comes up that feels uncomfortable, you can signal digitally through chat or messages to pause, skip, or adjust a scene.
