I mean, the fight is in book 10, I don't think you need to bother about it for another six months at minimum.So, if I like the idea of fighting a hivemind but don't love the idea of fighting the concept of fervent communism, any recommendations for how to adapt this encounter?
Hiveminds can be a good concept to explore. My game did a lot looking into how to use them in positive and productive ways.
Honestly, I think Stanfield's speech is quite weak, especially given his actions. He does nothing to help the poor and arranges for the death of thousands of Risuri sailors. I take it more as showing how he thinks he he is acting for a good cause, though I'm truth he is as corrupt as Nic.
