No death spiral
How should a player recover when they have no money or supplies?
Selected direction
The direction
There should not be a true death spiral because permanent power is not destroyed. A player who fails simply retries, using basic expeditions to rebuild supplies if necessary. Owned companions and previously secured progression are safe. Recovery is therefore fail -> lose that run’s unsecured gains -> keep the save’s permanent state -> try again.

The original question’s prompt
The draft proposes a free basic expedition and no permanent loss of owned companions.
Examples in a prompt are not decisions unless the answer chooses them.Still to decide in this chapter
Exact modifier combinations, a possible one-item insurance mechanic, rare emergency extraction and Cozy/Brave reward ratios still need tuning.
