Patch Notes

Fallen London

That’s what I get for not looking up the taxonomy first…
The wasp thing still stands though!

Actually, insect skeletons can already have up to four wings in addition to the six legs, so that is taken care of as well

EDIT: after diptych’s comment, I realized for the first time that you meant the lack of stinger-tail on an insect, not a lack of wings. Your point stands!

Put the jet-black stinger on an insect skeleton, then use a knife to remove the length of the tail between the torso and the stinger. Boom - stinging insect.

How about one for the Boon/Burden slot?

530

Wouldn’t it never be visible? Those slots vanish from the UI if they’re not filled, so you can never see them empty, at least as far as I know.

Yep, same reason there’s no empty slot icon for spouse or club. Only un-equippable slots get the treatment.

  • City in Silver: The card ‘The Flow of Commerce’ now requires 6250 Prosperity to be drawn, matching the requirement on the branches in the card itself.

I don’t understand the reasoning. Most of the options on that card earn prosperity, so why gate it to how much you might spend? I usually overhear a story on it, rarely do I grab the ballad, as I’m grinding scrip.
