A Question

 Of late, it has occurred to me that I didn't do the best job with my To the Moon commentary.

Solo Challenge Rules

I will play through the game on Galaxy and Universe once, using fresh save files for both. I will not use anyone besides the character I pick. This includes Super Specialities. I will not savescum my Item Creation results, what I get is what I roll with. I will not redo successful fights unless I deem it absolutely necessary. I  will  use Assault Actions, but I will not invoke other party members for them. From Celine's run onward, I do not use books to raise my character's skills.
