Q: Didn't you already make this guide?
A: Kinda, yes. The original guide was just a link to a google doc (which steam didn't like). I was in the process of converting it into a guide much like this one.

Q: I don't see that guide. What happened to it?
A: While I was part way through reconstructing the guide, steam broke it. I put in a support ticket to try and fix it but never heard back from them. So here I am starting over from scratch. Yay.
Update: Support finally responded with an unhelpful non-answer that fixed nothing. Progress!

Q: Are you going to write a bunch of joke Q&A's like you did in the last guide?
A: Nah, I'd rather not retread old material.

Q: This guide looks incomplete.
A: It is. It's still under construction and I've only got about an hour or so a day free to work on it. It'll be done soon, I promise! It's finished! That unhelpful support response lit a fire under me so I cranked out the rest of the guide early. Enjoy!

Q: There are Missing events!
A: That's a statement, not a question. But yes, the following events are only the ones found in the base game. I do not have access to any of the DLC event files so they are omitted from the guide. Sorry

Q: I have those files! Should I send them to you.
A: Please don't. I wen't half blind parsing through the base game events and I have little motivation or desire to put myself through all that again.

The following events only appear in Campaign mode. Career mode skips straight to the Argo!
