Fuck, i Last played Rinworld, so all of the warcrimes

Potions got Buffed in the game iirc normaly drinking one I an Action not a bonusaction

Nearöy every safety bill is written im blood. The blood of the workers , because corperations dont care about there workers, they care about a line ging up.
