Be secret sub and pick Angelica to manage the pod. She'll brief you on the pod members late in 8.2 and drop the line about trying to sway Kane to her instead of Alessandra. Either a ploy by Alessandra or Angelica making a move. Personally think Angelica wouldn't do something so risky like that with no safety net.
May also be relevant to know (for others) that one must also be SubK7 too. SubK5-6 will not trigger it.

Now we also have to manage the rank on the SS route :WutFace:.

I think this game will make me break my own record and make a sixth save for the first time in my gaming life. Really, I've finished everything I've ever played with 5 saves or less, and in the AVN world with 3 or less :LUL:.

I have more saves in this VN than any other. It's wild. It's not like managing SS rank is all that hard, at least so far.

Harem style VNs I tend to just keep a single save. Single path VNs depends on how many LIs I like. Off the top of my head...this, Intertwined, and BaDIK are games where I literally try to see every piece of content. Some VNs I just can't be bothered.

You'll be fine (as I assume will most others), you really do need to screw up to not be SubK7 (on the SS route) at the last throne room evaluation.

How do you get Claudia's scene in the new version?
Basically, you need to have gotten on the evil Dominique path.

In episode 6, if you're k5 or above, you'll have a scene with 3 Karlsson sisters in a pool. (Veronica, Dominique, Juliette) You can choose which one to talk to. If you choose Dominique and you have 5 or more evil points, you can choose the dialogue option where you tell her not to worry so much about other people. This will set the variable dominiquestestpass = true. It's pretty straight forward from there I think.

There are a few, to get Dom scene with Dominique, you basically need to be on Dominque's evil path, and possibly Claudia corrupt path. To get the sub scene with her, just pick yellow room, that one is the easiest. To get Claudia and Olivia scene by pool, Olivia needs to be Demoness, and evil, to corrupt Claudia and get lesbian scene. Those are the ways to get all the scenes of Claudia as far as I remember.

I just finished the chap7 and begun the 8. I had a glance at the 8th's walkthrough, there's a dom secret sub path, or some such name?! I'm K9, MC and FC mostly good. Does any of you know what it is?
This time I used sancho mod, it's great! Really useful to remember the protagonist, paths etc. Does his mod work for 8.2, I'm playing 8.1.

You can start the secret sub path when Alessandra asks you for a massage. Choose to massage her feet and the rest should be fairly self-explanatory IIRC. I don't know of any other way to start it.

Any predictions as to when Karlsson's Gambit arrives on Steam?
Not any time soon.

Can be started from K4 to K5 at the first evaluation, but having > -3 scale with Alessandra will also trigger it regardless, or as Hurn above mentioned, by massaging Alessandra's feet when meeting Olivia for the first time.

There is a new mod being made by Steely Dan as Sancho been MIA for 7 months now.

While what you state is correct, in 8.2 you only need 5 evil points to get the scene (same as the pool scene you mentioned), you do not need DominiqueTestPass to gain that scene with Claudia in 8.2, you do not previously need to be on her Dark Path. Being on the revolution or SecretSub path will overrule it though.

This is the so-called Secret Sub route. More information about it can be found in the official walkthrough linked in the OP.

If you are a pure Dom player and don't like sub content (in any form), this route is best avoided.

Thanks for your answers guys! I played it as a survival post apo game, ended-up k6 good, and then replayed it from scratched with sancho mod on. I don't mind seeing the sub scene, especially since they're important story-wise, I'm even dumbfounded that she needs to advert such scenes, it's a world lead by sadistic women there cannot be no sub scenes, and what would be the point of not seeing them especially since two of the three I saw so far contain information?
Anyway it's my view of it.
I don't think that I'll replay the game, not that it's not great, it is, just because I don't see myself following any other path that the one I'm comfortable with, (AKA imagining myself as a man trying to survive a hellish situation while keeping as much as his soul as possible, and I appreciate that the author's work allow me to do so).

Thinking of starting a new playthrough. Is it possible to win the game as an evil dom without MC or Olivia murdering anyone and not losing too much scenes in the processes?

We don't even know how to win the game period. I imagine an evil duo is probably possible. Whether you can do that without snuffing anyone..who knows. Only two characters cannot die....everyone else...
