Here is my day 1 risk 8, cats-only run. ;) I will be doing this every day this CC, if possible.
Arknights
Arknights is a free-to-play mobile Tower Defense gacha game developed by Hypergryph. Lemmy users, please visit the original instance for the full rules. But TL;DR, No NSFW art, very low effort shitposts, english only, no AI art, no excessive self-promo.
Namie's (GG/Mizuki's artist) Goldenglow and Mizuki Risk 18 run
Aaand the first daily map has civilians, how fun!
Oh, fun, that was my favourite part of Chapter 8! Love those assholes who just sit there and die.
Day 3 risk 8 cats only, much harder than day 1's map with these risks, but I managed!
I've found Suzuran S2 seems inordinately strong on the perma map. Of course, as support unit, Texalter and Mlynar both seem really good (even if you ignore the fact that there's a R18 Texalter solo strategy).
It took me a depressingly high number of risk 8 failures to realize/remember that the War Phantoms summon a Scrap, and that was why my front line was getting wrecked. That's what I get for not reading enemy info closely.
