Sub-Lieutenant Andie Graham is a new character introduced with

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Episode III. When Andie and

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Derek Hogan are in play, they replace

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Finola Keegan and

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Wang Chao. The ship then inhabits an alternate timeline version where Finola was not captured and Chao died in the attempt to bring her in.

How to play

Andie seems to be a person of many skills, but also torn between several responsibilities.

While having the potential to be an excellent

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Pilot, (s)he will often be expected to spearhead the Research as Finola would, which in turn will not leave much time for other demanding jobs. Then again, a

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Polyvalent Andie is also very good at Exploration (arguably better than

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Hua) thanks to the great

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Diplomat bonus, and extra alien fruit from being considered a

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Botanist. Being everybody's

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Confident lets Andie help the ship's morale, as well as help with the

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Mush hunt by clearing people of suspicion. Finally, the general

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

bonuses and success chances from having

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Devotion +

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Expert enable him/her to do just about anything better than the average crew member, if needed.

Due to this multi-faceted skill set, you should pay close attention to your crew line-up and the players' activity levels before deciding on your skills.
On the upside, you will be able to fill in whatever role will be needed the most.

Polyvalent: This unique skill allows you to fill in for the missing

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Finola as head of Research thanks to the

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Biologist bonus. The two expedition bonuses also dramatically increase your ship's chance of reaching Eden, especially if combined with a Babel Module.

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Pilot: Alternative choice if research progress is already decent (e.g. Biologist

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Ian) but your ship is missing characters to deal with the Hunter threat.

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Confident: Useful if

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Janice is in some way incapacitated (inactive or dead), as it will allow crew members to restore 2

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

daily, all while helping you with Mush hunting!

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Devotion: This skill is best in combination with Pilot, and getting extra % from Polyvalent helps more in research. It can be useful on its own in case you end up as the

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Communications Officer (due to your position in the hierarchy list), but is not recommended at Bronze level.

Pilot: Do research, defend the ship and pilot successful expeditions yourself... you have all the options, but you will be starved for

. A good plan is to focus on research first, so you might be able to stop the Mush before your help is needed on the Hunter front.

Commander in his mission choices, the ability to gain 6

Expert: Increases your hit chance in combat, among other things, making you that much more effective as a Pilot and a generalist. Not worth dropping Polyvalent for, though, unless you already have an active

Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination

Mush

• Mush Andie's ace in the hole is his/her
  Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination
  Devotion skill. If you can convince the
  Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination
  Commander to give you missions (especially if the commander is your partner!), you can potentially store up several 6
  Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination
  boosts. When paired with
  Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination
  Phagocyte, this can allow you to do a frightening amount of damage in a short amount of time.
• However, Andie is also expected to do anti-mush research, especially if
  Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination
  Polyvalent. This can put you in an awkward position very quickly, both in terms of long-term strategy and
  Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination
  management. Beware of crewmates attempting to feed you to squeeze out more research!

Useful tips

• Andie's
  Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination
  glory objective is fulfilled no matter who performs the actual trade. (S)he does not have to be
  Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination
  Communications Officer to receive the
  Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination
  bonus.
• In addition to
  Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination
  Confident, Andie's ability to do the thing with any character can make him/her very helpful in a morale crisis.

Trivia

• As with
  Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination
  Derek Hogan, Andie's character artwork has been done by a different artist. Mathieu "Ani" Leyssenne, the original Mush artist, no longer works with Motion Twin.
• Andie cannot get
  Error creating thumbnail: Unable to save thumbnail to destination
  Pregnant and can get female characters pregnant. This is probably due to mechanical limitations and should not be treated as "proof" of a true biological sex.
