I'm starting to hate the deck system

The whole thing is just a big rock-paper-scissors, the strategy you employ matters little compared to what deck you have, so most of the time the winner is the person whose decks happens to counter their opponent's. Yes, you can make a versitile deck, but it'll just fall into being a jack of all trades and master of none.

Compare it to SW2/SWE's faction system, where you get all the units from a faction, and if you see your strategy getting countered, you could at least try changing your army composition, or pick what units you're going to build depending on what faction your opponent has.

Any funky translations for your native language?

I first played SupCom before learning english. The instruction for Forged Alliance translated the DLC title to "In face of the enemy", and now I wonder if anyone else knows similar translations from their native translations.

Enough power scaling, let's talk about general competence

As in, which faction uses available technology and resources in the most effective way.

I feel like this is the main thing we should focus on since Star Wars tends to undersell in numbers like Lucas giving the Republic 200k + 1M clones at the start of the Clone Wars, a galaxy spanning war.

I hate anti projectile barrier

Now, this could be just me being salty about losing to decks that use it, but I also want to criticise it objectively.

The whole spell basically makes ranged units useless for a good chunk of the battle, meaning that whenever you fight someone with it, you're pushed to spam one type of unit rather than actually combine various types for maximum efficiency.

What makes it worse is that Eclipsors exist. You can spam them, fly over to the enemy base and cast projectile barrier, essentially making your army untouchable. When the spell runs out, retreat and wait for the not very long cooldown to run down and repeat.

To add salt to the wound, a spell that can cut someone's damage output for a solid part of the battle costs only 50 crystal, AKA single delivery.

What am I doing wrong?

This deck carried me to Emerald III then I just had a streak of constant losses. I'm starting to think the merics are pointless and a heal spell would be better, but that's genuinely the only thing I can see I'm doing wrong at the moment.

Need help with a mod crashing

So I'm playing World of Convicts ("Die Welt der Verurteilten"/Świat Skazańców") and everything was going on just fine until I got to the end of Chapter 2. The game just crashes the moment I enter the temple square. Some old discussions suggest it's because an NPC died, usually Grim or Gor Hanis, but inserting them and resetting the game as suggested doesn't work.

Let's talk about stuff we DID wrong

I'm talking about both practical and moral issues. Small things like tactical mistakes don't count, unless it happened repeatedly.

What could we have done to win the Clone Wars?

What could we have done to stay a relevant faction in the Rebellion?

And what could we have done to be remembered by the wider galaxy as the good guys?

Could the Star Forge gain sentience?

Malak says that the Star Forge is "alive, in a way". The Rakata say that the Star Forge corrupted their ancient leaders. It's established in Star Wars that droids that go on without memory wipe develop sentience, so I wonder: could the same happen to the Star Forge? Or would it always be stuck in a more primal stage?
