City States: Godflesh Calculator

Worldwide release: Friday, December 18, 2026

LORE: There is no greater physical or scientific embodiment of the path of the Scholae than the Godflesh Calculator: within its metal frame lies the brain of an embryionic godling, harvested from a nascent godling and deplyed to rewrite the rules of reality within the sphere of its influence. Stimulated by sharp rods through which precisely calibrated amounts of Ark energy are deployed to specific nerve clusters, the autonomic responses of the lobotomized godling respong with specific, carefuly studied responses. These range from tweaking the laws of physics to bending the laws of space and time themselves, providing the Scholiasts with an unprecendented mastery and control of the battlefield. These effects come at a tremendous cost to the crippled godling trapped within the mechanism, taxing it further and further until nothing but the most powerful jolts of Ark energy can stimulate even the weakened response from the doomed godling, but by then the battle is decided almost invariably in the favor of the Scholiasts. HOW

THEY PLAY in FIRST BLOOD: The epitome of Scholae experimentation, the divine mechanisms of the Godflesh Calculator enact battlefield miracles; Enigmas that correct the course of combat and secure victory. These miracles take the form of restoring wounds, imbuing soldiers, or by striking down the foe with the wrath of a caged god. Most unique of all, the Godflesh Calculator allows a City States commander to swap dice rolls for predetermined results, providing assurance in the chaos of war.

HOW THEY PLAY IN TLAOK: Why leave victory to chance when you can rewrite reality itself? Powered by the tortured mind of an enslaved godling, the Godflesh Calculator performs Logismoi, powerful real-time combat calculations that anticipate enemy movements and attacks, giving your troops a decisive edge on the battlefield. In the hands of the Scholae, even fate is theirs to command!
