You do what you’ve got to do to take care of yourself and your loved ones first. Then worry about the game. I’m planning on replying to messages as they come in but really only doing one post per day.

That should be something I can keep up with.
Mar 20, 2020 1:08 am
My thought is I’ll answer any questions as they come up but I’ll make one post every day or two to move things forward.

sorry to hear that, HoorrayRat. Wishing you best of luck in these testing times.
I am in London UK, and we are starting to lockdown now, schools closing today and most people working from home (I am among those fortunate enough who can, but realise it's not possible for all businesses).

@GM: fantastic in-game writing, wow!

Ya, it’s spring break here, they cancelled school "indefinitely" which could mean the rest of the year is out. They’re talking about maybe remote classes but who knows. My 13 year old is giddy about this but I’m sure he’ll be bored to tears in 2 weeks. I’m emergency services so, once my week off is over I’m back out there. My other half can work remotely. Groceries are an issue, we’re alright for a bit but finding certain things is troublesome.

Harris Darrington Backstory: As the oldest son of a well known American businessman, Harris has always known he would inherit the family company one day. He studied, watched his father and others run the business, and watched how the company grew and grew. But now, as his father ages, he notices that his father has gotten complacent, he no longer has the drive to expand or take the company to new heights. So, the 28-year-old business tycoon has set off to find the edge that the company needs to catapult itself into a prime spot as we head into the next decade. And from what he can tell, the future is in the stars! Right now, only the Brits and Germans really have a hold on the aerospace market, but Harris plans to find some American ingenuity, some American gumption and use that to lead his father's (and hopefully soon to be HIS) company into the field as the preeminent North American rivals to the established European powers. To do this, he first is traveling to San Francisco, to the inventors' symposium where he hopes to recruit top talent and bleeding edge tech to get his dreams off the ground. Literally.

I went ahead and just upped the cost on pretty much everything with the idea that Harris would have bought high-end versions of most of his belongings/equipment. He still has about 420 euros left, although I would assume he doesn't have it all on him. Some would be in a bank. And I don't know how often we would get the monthly income but I can track his funds for that whenever you let me know he gets access to it.

Equipment: (Cost is E80) (HE=High End)
Sword Cane (HE)
Pocket Knife (HE)
Derringer (Single Shot, Hidden HE)
Webley MK I Revolver (HE) (gift from his Father)
Winchester Repeating Rifle (Not Carried on him normally) (HE)
Standard Ammo (50 shots)
Luxury Outfit (HE)
Explores outfit (HE)
Rain Coat (HE)
Ammo Belt
Atlas and Encyclopedia
Gun Cleaning Kit
Shoulder Holster
Lighter (HE)
Cubans (HE)
Suit Case (HE)
Wrist Watch (HE)
Brief Case (HE)
Personal grooming kit/belongings (HE)

They’re pounds sterling £ not Euros € but close enough, I’d never noticed before but the symbol is oddly similar.
Mar 22, 2020 7:13 pm
Ah, shoot, my bad. I honestly didn't even think about pounds, and just thought it was an oddly shaped Euro symbol. Pounds makes WAY more sense haha Thanks for the catch!

Quote:
Now the rules state you take a -4 penalty on both shots, I dislike this and think no penalty on shot 1 and a -2 on shot 2 is more appropriate.
How does that affect the rapid fire talent?
Is this house rule only for revolver or all semiauto firearm?
Are those shots still limited to the same target?

When I get home and have a screen bigger than 2" wide to read on I’ll look and let you know. BTW - I do not get notifications from Gamersplane, it’s not that I’m proud or stubborn it’s that they just vanish into a blackhole and never get to me. So if there’s something I seem to not notice DM me because I do see the mail icon up top.

Well damn it, there’s a talent that does what I was thinking... never mind what I said then. My thought was each shot after the first should get progressively harder. Of course if you’re in a running gun fight you’re not aiming hardly ever, point and click.

My sincerest apologies. I'm bowing out of all my PbP games. I'm having to deal will a serious personal situation at home. I have no idea when or if it will get resolved.

You take care of family and yourself first, that's what's most important.
