Green Mamba LLC. LOL, love it!
I've had to miss the past two weeks of my face to face EotE group. I just got the belly twinge of nervous excitement that I'm GMing again on Tuesday. I always get a little nervous, no matter how prepared I think I am.

For sure! We run a pretty improv heavy game, so I never know what's going to happen. Last session, they flipped a light side point and made up a planet, with a smugglers haven on it that includes a doctor and a gladiatorial arena (one guys needs medical attention, they're hoping to make money betting on the Wookie fighting). I've had two weeks now to prepare that, so no biggie.
The time they really caught me though, was a night when we were missing two players. I thought I was showing up for a board game night. Instead, they asked if I'd run a flashback/side quest for just those there. I had nothing, nothing prepared. We improvised a whole session, and it was epically fun!

I've never had a Triumph before! I had wanted someone who the guy owes money or otherwise has reason to give him trouble to approach him and, well, start giving him trouble. Distracting him and allowing the others an opportunity to get closer without raising suspicion. If that's Triumph-y then that. If it's not, take your inspiration from that and dial it up?

"I dunno what Mala is complaining about. She ate enough BBQ Nerf to feed a Wookie."
Mar 8, 2016 2:59 pm
"Well Lin, I figure it was the fact you set an animal on fire to burn to it's death in front of a crowd of people. I mean yeah it distracted everyone but that's because one rarely sees Nerf screaming to death while on fire... in a bar... on a Tuesday. Before Happy Hour...uh, usually never."
Mar 8, 2016 3:06 pm
"Well, maybe not on a backwater like Naboo. I still don't see why we're banned from the whole planet, just for roasting a few nerf and setting one seedy dive bar on fire. Besides, the nerf was delicious..."

Lin takes a long pull from his ice cold, coozie wrapped beer. "Worth it. Almost as good as the men's underwear that says, 'The Mamba is Gonna Find Ya' on the crotch."
Mar 8, 2016 4:18 pm
"Hey hey hey." Akhrirar states getting defensive, "Those would have cost five times as much if they had put the right color in the phrase and printed the right ammount... Is it that hard, a guy shows up in all green, calls himself the Green Mamba, he shows you his card... it says Green Mamba LLC. he writes down the phrase, you would think somebody who's a professional can read and figure out the God Damn Context Clues... Colorblind my ass... Just be glad I found a professional in the adult industry who could use them, we made the money back with profit... Granted he didn't promote them as beer coozies but that's not the point." explains Akhrirar waving a hand in the air as if to dismiss the bad before the worst that had come.
After the jab from Lin he turns to him and purses his lips, "Well if someone wasn't getting us put in confinement for their drunk disorderly conduct maybe I wouldn't have to be stripped down to my underwear as often, every time Lin: 'Watch out he's packing a small weapon that's hidden?' if I got to strip down Imma at least make it worth my time for some free advertisement. Giggling like a school kid... 'check him again if you can't find it...it's small or he's shy'" Akhrirar shots back.
"Maybe I should make sure you get stripped down next time so everyone see the tattoo on your uh..." Akhrirar muses aloud and pauses small teeth gleaming as they slide free from thin lips.

Lin's face lights up with childish delight, "Hey good idea. Check this out..." He begins unbuckling his pants...
Mar 8, 2016 4:34 pm
Fuzil Stands up "ok, ok, ok ... We have all seen the nice tatoo of the FTY on you ..." he pauses "there. So there will be no need for another viewing. Btw they are not all bad experiences. I am glad wenalways take angroup photo woth the bounty before we drop them off." he points to the wall.
The wall is covered with various picture of the group and different bounties they have collected on. the picture show various if emotions and looks based on each mission.
"Everytime I walk by I get a flush of memories and this wonderful team..." he stops abruptly "I SAID WE DIDNT NEED TO SEE THE TATOO!"

Letting out a guffaw Akhrirar reminds the doctor he sleeps in the cockpit so driving in the nude might be his new thing. Making a comment on driving with no hands and why he never touches the pilot controls unless he has on gloves leaves him quietly snickering.
Mar 8, 2016 5:13 pm
At the mention of that, Fuzil would stand up and walk out the cockpit while taking out a whipe and start cleaning his hands.
"yes sooooo many memories" thinks as he tries to clean his hands.

Reminds the Doctor she's seen naked people as a medical professional (with less than professional people to exam) and if they let Lin out 'into the wild' at night where there's a bar (there's a way!) she might have to check him for why it burns when he goes to the bathroom... So regardless she'll probably have to see more of him.

Lin turns on his heel and heads for the cockpit.

Akhrirar waits until Lin leaves, "I'll come off in a few weeks if start bathing regularly..." he comments before saying something that might freak everyone out, "Yall wondering why he has a picture of his mom inside his pants?"
Pulling out his datapad he makes a note, Check Green Mamba LLC. for Lin using the expense account for manicures fill as operational expense, justification: Can't fly by the seat of your pants well with a hangnail.. He smiles to himself with two possible boons for the day. Saving money and a decent level prank on Lin.

Mar 8, 2016 6:58 pm
Akhrirar goes to spin the Wheel of Chores of who's turn is it anyway in the galley. He's felt it's the best way to avoid responsibility. With the flick of the finger he sees who's turn it is. As it lands on the unlucky victim he sighs in relief before getting on the ship coms.
"Fellow shipmates it's almost time for dinner and it's Acaatha's turn to cook, help out if you feel like it. We'll be eating momentarily..." he states over the intercom before looking at the Doctor, "Pants are required... mostly for Lin. Lin you don't get to eat if you're not wearing pants... or handle a knife or help with food prep..." smiling he gives the Doctor a double thumbs up.

"I just hope she doesn't cook something out of Lin's routine..." Akhrirar states, "I mean who makes soup and gives you a solid lump of 'something' in a bowl? You shouldn't have to cut soup." adds his face scrunching up from the memory. He still doesn't know what they had eaten.
Mar 9, 2016 2:40 pm
"Whenever you make something its is wrapped and deep fried. What did you call it? Chim May Chung Ga?"
Mar 9, 2016 2:52 pm
Arriving in the mess hall you find I have been there the whole time, and am busy preparing something that smells exotic. The vision of Acaatha Fuzil saw in the other room must have just been an illusion... It was no wonder the others didn't act as if she were there.
I don't turn as you loudly burst into the room and find a place to sit, arguing about whether Lin or Akhrirar are the worst cooks on the ship.

"Oh chimichangas? Yeeeeah. Das my #(%*!" Akhrirar states excitedly slapping Tot on the shoulder, "Acaatha! Are you making Chimichangas? I'll make Salsa and Guac for the chips! Maaa-La! I'm eating vegetables this counts." Akhrirar states his little legs moving a little bit faster than they probably should as he moves in to 'help' and starts to make salsa and guacamole for the chips smiling and moving from side to side as he works.

Mar 9, 2016 4:37 pm
"Look the toasted chip gun was a good idea... I mean I didn't think it'd shoot with enough force to imbed in someone's skin but that's the price of innovation, sometimes the calibration are off... plus I apologized. I mean we didn't have to replace the table... the bowl broke but we got those wholesale. Mala you can't just make a baked salsa flavored chip and not shot it at people at a party, if you don't you might as well just sit around a bowl of salsa at a table with dry chips you dip in. Think of all the spills we're saving people." he shots back defensively looking down at the half made salsa and guac.
Now how the hell am I gonna eat this? Use it for a prank? Naah this stuff is too delicious... he thought to himself licking his lips and furrowing his brow.

With a sigh Akhrirar pouts, "Well I guess I could dip bacon in them... Do we have any tortillas? I could spoon it on those and sprinkle cheese and roll them up and deep fry them... It's not the same though I like my crunchy taste with my soft tastes." he laments dealing with 1st world Bounty Hunter problems.

Well here's hoping I needed that roll because I don't know if we got the insurance on the speeder... you are freakout about something so it totally makes sense.
Mar 28, 2016 4:04 pm
oh yeah, I guess we rub the side of the building a little...
man, I could have used your advantage in the roll.. is there a general way that we can use each other's advantage in PBP. I know in tabletop, you can just say it... maybe we can declare we're donating our advantages to the group if we don't use them to recover strain or make a critical hit?

Seems like a fair default use of advantage -- if you don't do anything with it, then it becomes that generic boost thing that gets used by the next player automatically?
Mar 28, 2016 4:18 pm
I agree with @Candi. Falyrx will use advantages for strain recovery if we don't claim them for something else. Adding a blue die to a subsequent action is fair game IMO.
Also, we can use advantages to add in beneficial environmental or narrative bits as well. This tends to be underutilized in PbP games (in my experience anyway).

1) Mechanical benefits are, well, mechanically superior (strain recovery, or granting a boost, helps you in a clearly visible way - better outcomes on future rolls, or the ability to keep churning out special abilities or keep on keeping on)
2) Adding 'narrative' and 'environmental' details is difficult without hooks or guidance. The players that do this, do it very well, and I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out most of them have GMing or improv experience, because a certain degree of comfort and 'unbounded creativity' is necessary to drum something up that is both fitting and feels 'cool' or otherwise like a good use of advantage when compared against strain recovery or boost dice.

Well if I needed the roll and we're still out and about for the chase without the need for the boost I would probably have gone with not noticing the cargo netting in the alley stuck to my foot when I jumped in, the hurried burn out of the alley had the Green Mamba repositioning in the back seat, aka getting tossed around but got the netting off his foot but it's snagged across the side and back so people can jump in quicker, or we have something now to snag the mark with on a driveby.
Mar 28, 2016 4:51 pm
Exactly. That's the interesting stuff. Adding narrative/environmental factors as mechanical benefit. I like that sort of thing. I like it as a GM when players in my game use advantages like that.

Checking in -- busy day today -- and flight out at 0-dark-thirty for a couple days in California. I'll be taking along the EOTE CRB and my adventure modules for my other two campaigns so I can update while on the road.
Generally -- if you want to give a boost "to the next person" - you can do so easily with a single advantage (IIRC). With 2 advantage you can designate the recipient as a specific person (or give your target a setback).

Seriously...that was amazing! I LIVE for ridiculous rolls like that! No success, but 7 advantages...oh man.
That is my favorite thing about the EotE system; there is always a chance to fail an easy roll, but there's also often a chance to fail forward.

"Hey hey hey... let me tell you something okay. I have short legs. You can't expect me to always be able to save the day at the spur of the moment you know and not have stuff happen. Besides Totz was the one who was distracted by the pudding fountain. I mean yeah it's cool, how do they keep it from congealing and looking silky smooth? I was focused on the job, I jumped on the speeder bike since the target was getting away. Okay I didn't know it was in reverse okay. So I backed into the fountain. Did any of you know the pudding for Bantha was like giving a wookiee uncut Sansanna Spice? You don't see Lin talking about it I mean you saw what happened to him... Anyway we got the target and didn't get shot up. That should count for something..." Akhrirar explains, "Besides who here has parallel parked a speeder besides me? Huh? Anyone???

"Totz is still working on making me attachments." Akhrirar states coming back in eating pudding his lips smacks and licking any on his face he seemed to not be able to shove into his mouth with the spoon he uses to motion towards his feet, "They don't float when they get his with a disruptor do they? Huh? That job on Mijos with the guy who went into the boonies? Look at me I'm tall and Imma jump into the speeder from behind and do some fancy moves. Boom Disruptor, engine cut, splash, Lin in da swamp." Akhrirar states a little defensive before smirking, "Lin remember this?" he begins before talking in a deeper tone, "'Just rip off the Leeches quick if you do it slow it hr-*screams* Do it slow! DO IT SLOW! NO DON'T LET AKHRIRAR USE FIRE ON THEM!" he acts out busting into laughs before sighing, "Classic Lin... and why were you even wearing shorts in the first place?"
Akhrir's shoulders slump while going back to eating his pudding when hearing Acaatha, "I told you that you could just borrow one of mine. You're shoulders aren't as broad but it 'mostly' fits... little short but it's better than anything. Besides no one else wanted to put in a washing machine besides me in the ship." he states finishing the last of the pudding cup scrapping the sides and licking the inside of the container.

I have been *begging* for a washing machine ever since I moved in to this ship! Do.. do you guys just ignore me when I ask for things? I am sick of having all of us go to a laundromat every time we reach a spaceport. Do any of you have any idea how filthy the laundromats near a spaceport are? OF COURSE YOU DON'T because somehow *I* always get stuck with laundry duty!
Mar 29, 2016 6:05 pm
"Those weren't shorts, they were a pair of your regular pants, Stumpy. We wouldn't have gotten in that mess if you hadn't been cheap and bought the economy speeder. I said, 'lets get the one with the armor plating' but noooo! Your precious operational budgets."
Lin turns to Mala, "Why do we need a washing machine or a laundromat? We're on a space ship. Just hang your clothes out in the airlock in hyperspace like I do. The vacuum of space will take off all that grime and hyperspace will cleanse all the stains. I haven't "washed" my clothes in years."

Mala just stops and stares at Lin, her mouth open, completely speechless. She makes a sound or two, like she's trying to talk, but her brain just isn't processing fully for a few minutes.
finally, she takes a deep breath and attempts to say something calmly, but gives up and just says what's on her mind
Lin! That is NOT how hyperspace works! do you have any idea how incredibly dangerous it is to open any of the airlocks while the ship is in hyperspace!? Wait.. the airlocks are designed to not be able to open while in lightspeed... there's a safety mechanism so people don't get shunted out into hyperspace accidentally... Mala slowly turns her head to glare at Fuzil I wonder who disabled it? Know anything about that, Fuzil?

Akhrirar raises a hand towards Mala to prove the point it's needed, "Well Totz isn't allowed into a laundrymat after we had to pay for fire damages due to him modifying the dryers... Lin is... well Lin...Everytime I ask Acaatha about doing the laundry I can't remember how the conversation goes... I've offered to do laundry... I separate my whites, colors, and darks...

He wouldn't. Frankly, he wouldn't even think about, and will likely return to the ship at a dead run, with the entire staff of a local Speeder Depot chasing him because he punched their manager in the nose in an argument about overextended credit.Last edited March 29, 2016 7:46 pm

Following by Akhrirar getting decked by the Speeder Depot guards as they chased Lin, because Acaatha made them perceive Mr green-pants as Lin to 'distract' them so Lin could escape.

Just because Akhrirar literally has thinker skin doesn't mean his feelings don't get hurt just as easily, it does mean he has thinker skin and bares fangs when punched in the nose after going 'Mutha-', especially since he wouldn't know why the punch came. You have to aim lower to hit him in the nose meaning it's intentional.Last edited March 29, 2016 7:55 pm

Fuzil's trying to mediate, and I'm trying to figure out how we'll refuel at the next starport without any credits, and maybe without Lin making another scum bag starport gang lord angry. No matter how I run the numbers though, Akhrirar, I can't promise you won't get your nose broke again. Must be something about that cheap green spray paint you keep using Akhrirar. People really don't like it, and when they see it they forget that they were trying to murder Lin, and start hitting you instead." I turn, walking back towards my quarters, "Probably for the best anyway. Lin probably couldn't live wit himself if his nose got offset as badly as yours has been."

"Guys... my nose isn't broken it's always looks like this..." Akhrirar states before stiffing, "Oh I didn't have to pay for the paint it was free. That's why I use it on everything. It's decent paint and I have a lot of it so why not splurge on useage. Besides Ba-ran-da-ing." he explains, "I thought you hang around me because you need a wing man, I mean if you're not actually flying you have to make it sound good what you're dong with no proof... Totz just lets them know how you manhandle the ship badly and abuse it..." he adds with a smile... "Seriously though we need to not stress out the Doc she's been stressed over something but she doesn't talk about it... But yeah we need to figure out something to do about credits fast. The only real high yield bounties are high risk though... we don't have the reputation yet to take the easy big money ones either though with the richer clientele." he says a little quieter thinking for a minute seriously, "Wait do you think it was her birthday or something... recently?" he mutters before shaking his head and going back to thinking of how they could make some money quick. "We could, uh, try battle speeder bike racing again maybe... Lin's eyebrows look like they've grown back in... they look almost the same" he offers quietly before he falls quiet licking his lips and strokes his chin.

for some reason I think the green mamba workout plan involves doing squat thrusts in a tiny green thong. totally not appealing to Mala
Mar 31, 2016 8:25 pm
Lin just wears the thong and drinks whiskey and watches his "stories" on the Holonet.
Mar 31, 2016 8:37 pm
Lin wear the thong...not all, but most of the time. Any time we are travelling for a long period. Thong and tanktop, that's his casual look.
Mar 31, 2016 8:42 pm
I swear, Mala is going to start carrying around a spray bottle full of water and spray you while screaming "BAD! BAD!" when you do this shit...
Mar 31, 2016 8:47 pm
That would not be a wise course of action...remember, we are talking about an oblivious arrogant self centered narcissist in a thong and tank top. What do you think is gonna happen if you start squirting this person?

It's far easier to just use your force magic to make him appear as if he was a bipedal bantha... oh wait, only I can use that trick to avoid seeing Lin in his 'casual' attire.

or at least some of more observant ones would have questions or suspicions. the important thing is that she is part of the crew and we love her, no matter how funny it is to see akh continue to pitch marketing ideas to a crew he thinks is still present while we all go off for some much needed peace and quiet.

Uh Spoiler alert: There are multiple Green Mamba thongs. Some hidden around the ship. If this ever becomes a point and click adventure if you collect all 16 hidden thongs something might happen... also I wear pants due to complaints during workouts... I don't see what the problem is though my species' private parts are like snakes they only come out for business.Also Lin does not just wear a tank and thong around me... I'm down for a flash flex contest though. I got baby oil in my utility belt... just sayin'.

I tidied up the game thread a bit -- sorry for the chaos. All my fault. Mala may want to adjust her actions -- if not, that's cool. Then we'll wait on Fuzil and Acaatha's turns. If Fuzil (who is on holiday I think) doesn't get to it by this evening I'll handle it on his behalf.
Apr 1, 2016 7:11 pm
yes.
these guys are 'rival' level -- so they've got soak and high wound thresholds like you guys. I ignored the adversary uptick since that seemed egregious -- but suffice to say they have a soak of 4. so lin's hit would do something like 6 strain to him (5 + 5 success = 10 strain).

Let me put it like this: I'm down to lend my voice, like I said, but I don't have the bandwidth in my life to spearhead a project like this.
If somebody gets something real going with this, I'm down. Let me know. I'm along for the ride. But unlike Lin, I ain't drivin'.

well, I assume what we'd need is everyone able to do some recording. if we had someone willing to put together a script people could just submit separate recordings to splice together and someone who knows enough about sound mixing to make it sound good and maybe add background sounds as well. I can lend my voice but I don't really know much of anything about sound mixing or anything.

I do believe, now that Acaatha has acted, it's the NPC turn anyway. So, it'll all be clear up then (part of how we got here was because Acaatha was last to act in a round, then everyone posted after Acaatha, but the NPC had to act between me and everyone else -- the first round it went fine, but in the second round the NPC actions totally ruined everything and that's the round I believe has now just finished).

Akhrirar listens and watches Lin's sudden rapid departure with pursed lips before sitting down next to Mala and lightly tapping the back of Mala's hand, "Girl you know you don't look old. It makes me wonder though if you remind him of his mom... which is weird if he's flirting with you. Maybe there's something in his past that would explain it... or why he flies the ship half the time in his underwear... You're going to boycott doing his laundry again for a month aren't you?" he states giving her a sideways glance with the realization opening his mouth gave others on the crew possibly more chores.
Apr 5, 2016 6:31 pm
no, no.. the laundry needs to be done or the whole ship will smell like corn chips... but I will make sure to secure my hand lotions...

"I'm surprised you don't use gloves... I do when it's my turn for the guy's clothes. One time I thought Lin had shoved rocks in his pocket... nope tater totz. Had to cut them out with a knife and sew the pocket back on... we can get some air freshners at the next port or something but you know the rule no open flames.

"I know, I know... it was the only time Fuzil had hair on his head and it was charred wookie flesh and hair that was on fire and stuck to his head flopping about... at least he stopped screaming in his sleep." he offered with a shrug, "He still can't look a wookie in the eye..." he added pointing at his own and indicating an eye falling out of the socket and trying to put it back in.
"That's also why we only do bounties on living people now." Akhrirar stated pointing towards the ground looking off into nothing and pinching his nostrils remembering the job.

Quick question on distances: Lin is in short range to Ralph, correct?
Can Lin use a double maneuver to reach the speeder this turn? If not, may I use athletics to do so?

Apr 11, 2016 3:42 am
Distance to the speeder is 'long'. so you'd need 3 maneuvers to make it near the speeder and a fourth, likely to get in. Unfortunately the rules are pretty opinionated on how many maneuvers one can take in a round.

I was using a narrative way to giving Mala all the boost i can. Can I assign 2 boost to her for 4 advantage and then one in the common pooll in hopes she goes next making it a total of 3 boost?
Also i have 6 strain left. Fuzil is ok. He will gain that back with rest or next time i get an advantage rolled.

so it sounds like nobody else needs healing. maybe acaatha and fuzil can hop in the speeder and mala can try to catch up with mamba? the boosts should help
Apr 20, 2016 4:12 pm
Oh i thought she was on deaths door. Yeah maybe you can drive better with 3 boost. Lol

I have no idea what to do with that 5 advantage.... what would make sense? how do I give a boost to lin to get us out of here (or whoever the gunner is ) by doing a medical check? maybe mamba is on guns, and telling him the mark is alive gives him a tremendous confidence boost to shoot straight?

With 4 threat i almost say I successfully plot a course... But to somewhere other than what i wanted to go. Like say i wanted to go to paris, france but instead went to paris, texas. Lol

oh, that would just be the icing on this cake. we finally grab the mark and then hyperpace somewhere way off course...
May 2, 2016 3:34 pm
We're so unpredictable/innovative even we don't know what we're doing.
Update: Additional success can yield more accurate target, threat can push you off course for where you wanted or elongate time in hypserspace. Maybe you were thinking about the soup and typed in something soup related instead of where we needed to go specifically. XD

well, that's just standard procedure when you might be followed. you jump anywhere else than your final destination and then quickly jump where you want to go.. makes it harder to track you...

So is Fuzil able to try to reduce the time more? Or is it six rounds and we are gone?
May 3, 2016 5:08 pm
Fuzil has reduced the time on the astro as much as he can (down to 4 mins). He's able to do other functions now.
May 5, 2016 4:39 am
please tell me the rest of the ship can't hear the conversation with the spaceport
May 5, 2016 5:11 am
Fuzil can, since I don't think he's relocated from the cockpit. But the rest of you are oblivious unless Lin is specifically piping it forward. Akh /might/ be able to hear it through the headsets assuming he and lin are using them to stay in touch.
May 5, 2016 5:39 am
that's fine. mala will continue to be blissfully unaware about the upcoming dogfight in atmosphere
May 5, 2016 2:28 pm
I think Fuzil went from blue to green.

waiting on fuzil before i trigger a round (uncertain acaatha will do anything other than assist fuzil if he does something she can help with).
May 5, 2016 8:48 pm
Does he have to keep Astrogation as his action or is it a batch job running in the background so that he can do other things?
May 5, 2016 10:48 pm
I think it's a batch job. making him sit at the astrogration chair for several rounds feels punitive.
May 6, 2016 5:16 am
I'm surprised at how ineffective shields are in this game. however your armor is helping you guys out. :)
May 6, 2016 5:47 am
You should add a boost from Fuzil. And you still have 2/3 of your hull points left. I had forgotten armor.
May 6, 2016 12:38 pm
Lin forgot to take the boost and then he got the second boost since he went next

"The Weequay raider thing doesn't apply here! That was the time I flew the ship into the docking bay of a Weequay pirate ship, then blew through each bulkhead until we flew straight through the cockpit. These are Tie Fighters, they don't have docking bays."
This isn't what happened, but Lin's rosy memory of the event makes someone else remember what really did happen. So, what really happened?
Also Fuzil, that thing with the speeder? DO IT! That is totally the kind of ridiculous behavior I want to see happening in Edge of the Empire!

"Hey if you guys worked out and wore them you'd see results... just sayin, anyone else dead lifting over 100 kilos?" Akhrirar states sitting upright and looking around to his question.
May 6, 2016 2:28 pm
"I found the leggings made great planters for my vegetables and plants i grow in the engine room. They hold the soil very well and are sturdy enough to handle any maneuvers the FTY are made to do. " He says with a grin at Akh.

Clapping his hands together Akhrirar points with his clawed index fingers at Fuzil, "Ya see, even if he doesn't work out he's getting healthy with dem pants. Just sayin' people if they can keep some soil from spilling out of them when Lin's driving they're doing their job. That's the kind of innovation we're needing in Green Mamba!" he states before leaning in to Fuzil to speak a little quieter, "Did you use the Large Longs? Lin's the only one who fits in those and he doesn't work out anyway."
May 6, 2016 3:16 pm
Acaatha's general function in situations like this is support (with Computers 1, I'd hope she could find ways to be helpful to others - and would do what she could to help the individual who needs it most -- basically leaning on Togruta Pack Hunter to provide double Boost to someone; way more effective than probably failing any other task she could attempt due to lack of training).

Sorry i asked a question a page ago that was what i was waiting for.
As much as i like the character chit chat it does bog up the page with questions and makes things confusing.
I maybe another page for talk would need to be placed because to be honest it gets unorganized teal quick is 2-3 people post 5-6 things in an hour and things will get missed.
Destiny tracker shld just be for destiny points
Ooc should just be for questions and stuff
A character thread should be for the banter we have back and forth.
If i am being out of line I apologize but this is what i have noticed since i played.

Real quick on a couple of items:
I view the OOC thread as a place where any OOC-level interaction / meta conversation / etc. can take place. It's intended to be a one-stop shop for everything from "The Yankees Rule!" to a debate about game mechanics. I think further divvying up or strict enforcement actually likely diminishes the flow and feel of the group and the game rather than enhances it, so I'm disinclined to have strict rules in place.
On the plan to throw a speeder out. I'm not going to say 'no' because I prefer not to. That said, you're propose a very complicated action unless you have the support of the pilot. I've never thought about whether the cargo bay should be something that operates in a vacuum w/o an atmosphere. If so then I think the key thing you'd need is a space suit for yourself and a lucky roll. It's easily a daunting roll (4P) to do something like that, IMHO if not harder due to circumstances (e.g. evasive maneuvers). Assuming it takes you a maneuver to get to the bay and an action to suit up that would eat up a round. Then I'd demand a round to get the air out of the cargo bay unless you go 'explosive decompression'.
Hope that helps. :)

Yes -- y'all are in space. My assumption is that you're making best possible speed for hitting hyperspace distance. I figure you can go from ground to orbit in a space ship in about a round, especially if you're in a hurry (which you were).

I again apologize. I just feel like i am being left behind because I can't post as much and sometimes things get missed when buried with post Like boosts that get assigned.
I also am not saying i dislike this style game. I am very amused by it. Just i am droopy the dog among a group of Road runners. Lol

Note that I mis-stated, we're also waiting on an action from Lin.
I think people do miss when boosts get assigned -- I try and catch it when I can. :) This is a challenge in all my PbP star wars games unless we slow down the cadence so much it feels too slow. Perhaps one day we can have a way within the dice roller to do it.

Maybe instead of using advantages for boost we should jut use for story or regain strain. Advatage was my fall back to make a roll in hopes to help another with boost because it was easier that way.

Lin, I'm thinking about some form of piloting roll to make it so you can determine which shield you present to enemy. What do you think? The way I read the rules, it feels like I could pick /any/ direction to hit you from because of your size. That doesn't mean you get a lot of value from angling the deflector shields if I can work around it... Thoughts?
May 6, 2016 9:39 pm
Its not messed up. That roll is a wash. No hit. Phew!
@falryx Sure we can do something like that. I feel that the designers of this game gave a lot of thought to keeping the whole party busy while the pilot flies, but neglected the pilot himself in the process. There's really not a lot I can do in this dogfight. This is why I wanted to play a pilot: to get to experience this sort of game play for myself.

Tuk. I just retread the rules. The *defender* picks the side hit, not the attacker. Unless the attacker has gained the advantage. I'll need to rethink something. I think try intend for fights to be places where there are obstacles (asteroids, other ships, etc.) effectively requiring a piloting roll each round from the pilot.

@Friar_Tuk/Lin I found this online -- still reading through and digesting it.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1aCo9WoSsZs1tOEa45_sEGI5BtyfPt_lAhPfgohc_d_I/edit
There's a lot of commentary about how FFG has basically made it so piloting skills don't matter in combat unless you're in an asteroid field or other nasty terrain. There's also the 'chase' mechanic which I haven't been using (p 241) because it's open space and the TIEs are quite a bit faster than the FTY.
Anyone have an opinion on those rules? I like how it means that the pilot now has a /job/ to do. I also like that it frames how to think about the forward arc nicely. I'm not sure I like how it throws boxes around a story that is supposed to be super narrative in the theatre of the mind, if you will.. but I worry that a pilot describing his or her actions without ramifications to those actions will have nothing meaningful to add.
I'd like something here because starship combat is something so core to Star Wars. It's important to me that everyone has something to do. And, to quote someone, as set up -- starship combat between Han Solo and Aunt Beru would be the same outcome unless Han had better gunnery skills.

you could have injected erroneous data into their systems so their targeting won't lock on or the system thinks we're in a space we aren't... oh! you could have tricked the computer into thinking we were closer to it than we really are, prompting the system to divert power away from the engines?
I guess if TIEs could do that, they wouldn't crash into stuff all the time...

in the couple of times in the movies when they were being chased by one or two TIE fighters, they were either blown away pretty quickly or caused to crash into debris. Maybe the pilot can make a roll to cause an enemy who is engaged with him to bump into something, causing some damage?
May 7, 2016 2:46 pm
To be honest I was trying to get to there guns so i would think it should effect that. Im fine with say a setback per success. Just makes it harder to hit the FTY.

well, think about what Han did in all those space battles. he was flying in asteroid fields, flying THROUGH asteroids, doing stuff that could get them killed, buzzing the command bridge of a star destroyer, just generally dodging and going places enemies couldn't follow. that sounds like we need to have more obstacles in space battles.

Understood. Yeah we had that problem in the beginning of our other game i play online. I felt very very very op.
We came up with layers then. One round succes i was able to get into system. 2nd roll would get to the. Weapons. Maybe third to take them over.
This was my guy agter 2 years of playing and he has been a nightmare for my brother with my talents. I got one if i get a triumph i can use my maneuvers as extra computer checks. Lol

I'll be unable to look at this doc until likely Sunday evening. I also have the Ace sourcebook for AoR. I'll take a peek in there to see if has anything interesting to say.

Hey all, my busy weekend has bled over into a busy Monday. I'm not going to be very active today. Falryx, I'll try to look over those mechanics this evening.
Sorry all and thanks for understanding!

I finally had time to look at those Dogfighting rules. They actually look really good! My only real quibble is that in EotE you never roll for Maneuvers, so instead of a Dogfight Maneuver it should be a Dogfight Action.
If you tell me the difficulty of the opposed check (based on the other pilot's skill) I'll add a piloting roll and choose appropriate outcomes form the included table in that doc.
I'm assuming you, falryx, and everyone else, is ok with playtesting this stuff a bit. Let me know if I am falsely assuming.

let's give it a shot and see what happens -- assume 3G for the lone TIE (that said, I'm pretty sure Akhrirar just torched it).

Im cool with you guys testing as fellow gms. It helps me if something like this comes up in our game.

(but yes, the jammed comms contributes to the lack of additional TIEs in a timely manner).

I would like to survive the introduction to the game.. you can be a raging asshat with the imperial swarms later.

Spent this morning doing a bunch of research and bought another source book (Galaxy Guide 10: Bounty Hunters from WEG) -- but now I need to head into work.
I have travel time to Kwenn, repair cost all figured out. Need to think about the bounty hand off a bit more and the reward #. Sorry for the delay -- I woke up a full hour later than I expected.

No worries at all falryx! All the hard work is appreciated (as a GM that usually just 'wings it' and just strives to be consistent in how I handle things over time, it's true respect that I have for those who actually do the work to make things right).
Also, unrelated, any ideas from the rest of the crew where Acaatha should evolve towards? I built her as a 'gap filler' (bit of stealth, bit of intrigue, bit of deception) to compliment the gunslinging, ship flying, mechanics and healers that we've got. By her career progression, she will naturally become better at hiding and sneaking (and marginally better at decryption and street-wise investigation). But, where else should I place emphasis?
I ask because my next talent is Well Rounded, which lets me make any 2 skills career skills. Statistically, I'm weighted towards Cunning and Agility.

I don't think we do -- Computers is already a career skill for me (unless there's another slicing skill?); so maybe that's the ticket.
May 12, 2016 3:09 pm
From 4 Int? I have 2 Int, 1 Computers (so GY) and 1 Boost on attempts to decrypt communications. So, not really slicer material.
May 12, 2016 3:22 pm
Ya the int is 4. I spent my points to raise that as far as i can. Helps with mechanics. Slicer and outlaw tech are in the same career bracket as mechanic.
He is average for slicer just not able to get a triumph.

Seems like he's a way better candidate for 'team slicer' then Acaatha. Might be better if I just keep pouring my effort into "hiding", then I can be the team survivor. When things go bad and we don't luck our way out of it, I will at least be able to tell the tale... And I'm also good at assisting... Damn, I made a bard guys. I always do this (usually by accident).

I think Acaatha could go the "Face" route from A-Team.

Does this mean i have to be drugged everytime we fly?
Also i dont think he would be a slicer tree more outlaw tech but that is allot of exp.
I can always get yellow in computers. The slicer tree just gets the bells and whistles. The reroll and the triumph talent is pretty sweet.

May 14, 2016 3:25 pm
Ok -- was asked "how does all this work" re: docking, etc.
I'm using:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0BwLuMQJaiXXiajF1ckF6Mzk1Q1k
...as guidelines.
In this case, the FTY is silhouette 4. So docking fees are 250 credits per 5-day week (which is the SW standard, apparently).
I'm using the fuel and provision costs elements and the maintenance bay access costs from this sheet as well. I may or may not entertain rolls to adjust the pricing, either as a randomizing element to reflect local economy or due to negotiation skills. Note that in the case of Kwenn station, it's controlled by Hutts and is huge. The opportunity to negotiate pricing on basic services is quite limited.
Also note that as Hutts, they are happy to rack up a bill as "credit" -- perhaps with an extortionate interest rate. so if you can't prepay for access to things, they are happy to "put it on your bill"

What's the XP cost for raising a career skill? Thinking I'll go for 5 XP to get Street Smarts (never hurts to be able to do some research mildly better), and (hopefully) the remaining 10 XP on skilllllls.
May 14, 2016 7:12 pm
Remnant says:
Isn't it 5 x Rank #?May 14, 2016 7:15 pm
Ok! Acaatha is now decent at Knowledge (Underworld) and Streetwise (Rank 1 in both, and removes 1 setback from checks using either skill) :)
May 14, 2016 8:05 pm
Skill cost is:
5 x rank acquired + 5 if not career.
So in a career 0 -> 2 is: 5 + 10 = 15xp
In non career skill 0 -> 2 is: (5 + 5) + (10 +5) = 25xp
5 x rank acquired + 5 if not career.
So in a career 0 -> 2 is: 5 + 10 = 15xp
In non career skill 0 -> 2 is: (5 + 5) + (10 +5) = 25xp
May 14, 2016 8:08 pm
I think lin and mala put in for smuggling compartments, which is why I only have 25 left. I think lin spent all of his cash
May 14, 2016 8:17 pm
Yup. The job will pay adequately enough that you won't be scraping so totally at the bottom of the barrel. But I'm hopeful to get some more source material before I figure out the going rate for kidnapping someone.
May 16, 2016 3:24 pm
hell, the guy probably gets angry because he thinks someone sent their slave out to negotiate with him.
May 16, 2016 3:35 pm
These are just the hazards of the job. Should I come out before they think you're an escaped slave and they taser you?
May 16, 2016 3:37 pm
jesus, I didn't get a despair... actually, fal said that it was daunting to negotiate, not charm. I'm hoping he knocks a purple die off my roll...
May 16, 2016 7:20 pm
I'll wait to update when i get home tonight to see if I can get some perspective on charm. Otherwise we can go with the roll and move along the narrative (it won't be a travesty, 1 fail 1 threat is no big deal... if it had been 3 threat or 5 fail or something, that's another story).
May 16, 2016 7:21 pm
I was just going for having them be off their guard or be favorably disposed to me. guess the guy just doesn't trust too easily
May 16, 2016 7:22 pm
it'd be fair to say that an employee of the Hutt Cartels likely sees his fair share of people trying to get into his good graces. It'd be a tough sell.

(Mala if you want you can add a boost die unless you have a better skill at negotiation or better presence - at which point we'd use your higher skill or attribute to set the dice). looking at it, you could add a green die to Lin's roll if you wanna do that. I'll let you narrate something and toss the die into the pool and we'll see what happens.
May 16, 2016 8:04 pm
With all those threat if converted to strain i could see Lin tripping down the hatch, falling over the crates, tripping face first on the dockmasters feet. Getting up to fast straining his knees and back, brushes off and then gives his speech.

Lin will be totally confused by Akhrirar's anger on this one. He thought the ship was broke (because he's broke, so isn't everyone?) and thought he was doing a favor by negotiating terms.
May 17, 2016 6:48 pm
Btw the NPC wouldn't be in the bikes however he would be taking pieces and parts from both bikes to make something like the NPC that would work.
I am guessing this will take all the stay at the dock to work on this.
This also leaves us with 2 non working speeders or as Fuzil would call then "parts garden".
I really need outlaw tech so i can make gadgets.

Yep Brawl + Pressure Point + Anatomy Lessons if we have it in the destiny pool. You state don't kill me and try and sucker punch using medical know how to cause strain unsoakable damage.

yeah, I know... I can still give him a hard time about it. did we ever establish that the crew knows about the bounty on mala's head? I think I remember us agreeing that she kept it secret but I could be misremembering.

Akhrirar and Acaatha know about Mala's probably Lin and Fuzil know about their situation also probably. We probably know the other got 'something' going on, what no idea really. Its kind of meta now but you did walk out to great the dockmaster in a seedy spaceport without a veil or disguise of some sort. Granted Mala probably isn't thinking clearly due to being freaked out.

Jun 3, 2016 3:48 pm
what's the agreement on pay for the group?
E.g. if you earn 10,000 credits on a bounty, is it an equal split from jobs? do you set aside something for the corporate books? are you paid a standard wage from the corporate books?
I'd probably recommend some split that takes a bunch and puts it into the corp for upkeep/etc. and then the rest split as makes sense amongst you.

I think the cuts would be equal after costs to fix/refuel and replenish the ship.

I recommend a 50% cut to "ship/corporate funds" and an even split on the remainder.

What are the IOUs, and those should come out of the pot before splitting (so 50% to corporate fund and then IOUs from that? or IOUs from the 3k, then the remainder is divided).
Jun 3, 2016 9:46 pm
If you say want say Super Fancy widget that cost 800 but you only have 500 we talk it over and the difference comes out the kitty and you pay it back after the next job. Or if people didn't have enough to chip in for dock fee's people get the money loans out back.
I think Totz and Lin were short for docking fees. IOU would come out of the person's cut.

Right, but I mean, what about those of us who used pocket change to pay for the docking fee? Aren't we owed by the corporate fund?
Jun 3, 2016 10:13 pm
note that 50% for the corporate kitty may or may not be enough to cover your costs.
I suppose you could interpret the docking fees contribution as an IOU from the corp to the person.

Yep, Mala and Acatha get your money back and Tots and Lin get their payout minus what they couldn't pay for Docking Fees before (-20 for whichever one of you had 5 credits and -25 for the baller on a budget that didn't have any money left.)
Jun 5, 2016 2:41 pm
...you may want to have it be:
(1) pay for ship supplies/fuel
(2) pay for ship IOUs
(3) then split the the money: 50% ship, 50% crew
(4) then pay for ship repairs (if any)
(5) then pay for ship capital improvements (if any)
(6) then deposit into ship account for later
Or perhaps you might want (4) ahead of (3). Right now I did:
(i) pay ship IOUs
(ii) then split the the money: 50% ship, 50% crew
(iii) pay for ship supplies/fuel
(iv) then pay for ship repairs (if any)
(v) then pay for ship capital improvements (if any)
(vi) then deposit into ship account for later
Let me know which formula works best for y'all. Keep in mind you've got ~4,000 credits of materials you need to affect repairs to your hull damage. In the first example, you're more likely to keep the ship working but be individually strapped for cash. In the latter one, you're more likely to have spending money, but the ship may fall apart. :)
Generally, btw, the idea is to keep you guys living at the edge somewhat, rather than enabling you to build up some kind of massive criminal empire (unless there's a crazy big job..).
(1) pay for ship supplies/fuel
(2) pay for ship IOUs
(3) then split the the money: 50% ship, 50% crew
(4) then pay for ship repairs (if any)
(5) then pay for ship capital improvements (if any)
(6) then deposit into ship account for later
Or perhaps you might want (4) ahead of (3). Right now I did:
(i) pay ship IOUs
(ii) then split the the money: 50% ship, 50% crew
(iii) pay for ship supplies/fuel
(iv) then pay for ship repairs (if any)
(v) then pay for ship capital improvements (if any)

At this point, you cannot afford to repair the hull fully. That's correct. If you did it before splitting out credits, you could. But then your split would be something like 125 credits each.
Jun 5, 2016 3:11 pm
hmm, it might be better to cover all the ship costs first before divvying up what's left. it's more important to have a well functioning ship in case we run across trouble than to have extra spending money. that's my $0.02
Jun 5, 2016 3:14 pm
hrm. I take that back.
With 840 + 3000 split you're short about 160 credits from being able to fully repair. But you could get to 24/25.

I'd agree we should figure we want everything full up on the ship before we take out equity from the funds to use for capital on a wish list if we have personal funds for items. Also we'd have to line up a buy if it's something really hard to find as well.

Random note..
I'm reading lots of extended source material around bounty hunters (both from WEG and the d20 star wars systems). It looks like to be an accredited Bounty Hunter, you need an Imperial license. From my perspective, you guys do not have that license yet -- hence working through brokers (who do). As a result, you're getting a very limited selection of jobs where you pay a significant overhead to your brokers for the gig.
As I learn more, I'll figure out how to open up the Imperial bounty system to you. I suspect it'll be somewhat problematic, as I'm likely to throw down 5 obligation on the party for your escape from Eriadu. So if that gets triggered at some point, THAT will be fun.
Does this all sound copasetic? Your next gig is more of a smuggling/theft thing -- but I assume you wuold like to have some options to cut out the middlemen...

that sounds good.. it seems totally keeping with cannon to have a small time crew trying to muscle themselves into the bounty hunter guilds. some of the guilds only take people who have proven themselves or who can pass a set of trials. since we're pretty much unknown at the moment, we need to prove ourselves.
I have a copy of the bounty hunter code and it has a lot of good stuff. there are different clans and they don't seek bounties from fellow bounty hunters of their own clan, but the others are fair game... it's a good read.
now, if you'll excuse me, I just saw that there is also an imperial codebook that I need to spend money I don't have on.

Bounty Hunting I figured is more about your name/brand. You want big payouts you'll need high risk jobs or quick turn arounds. Green Mamba is flashing since been seen is the main thing now since it's mostly like Green Who?

I think it's a combination of what remnant said and what falryx is reading. some groups can get the big score and earn respect and honors that way, but if you are part of a guild you have more access to contracts set by governments and such. some clients only want to deal with a certain guild.
people want to join a guild because of more control over contracts they can pick, and safety

*Puts on his reading green shades*
I have us at
+6000 Payout from Hyperdrive Specialist Job
- 0250 Dock Fee
- 0100 Maintence Facility Access Fee
- 0780 Refuel
- 0975 Resupply food stuffs
+0390 refund on fuel not pumped
Projected cost of 640 to finish refueling.
So about 3535 in the account so if we leave 1500 in there 2035 split five ways would be a payout of 407 each. Sound good?

I think you're ok man. Less has happened than the text makes it seem. We switched docks to restock and refuel, then jumped station earlier than expected due to the previous dockmaster nosing around looking to delay us. We are just about to take off.
Jun 9, 2016 8:08 pm
I paid out 25 from the kitty for the IOUs. let's assume since they're all ..... under 100 credits that they're paid out (I think I used the less-than sign) and I won't adjust the account balances any further.
You are currently at 1,360 credits with a 500 credit payout to each member. If you want to put money back in the kitty, you can either let me know here, do it through RP in the thread or add the math to the balance sheet yourself.

on another note, as a group you have 100 obligation now.. so.. you're generally screwed. :)
Jun 9, 2016 10:30 pm
People paid out 22 a piece for the chip in except for Lin, Totz gave up his last 5. I covered Lin and the rest of Totz since I invest.
Also how's obligation are we dealing with? Is it mine? Licks his hand and smooths back his scales.

so -- it's not cancelled out, although you failed. so you have to have something interesting happen from the triumph. :)

I would like to let you know that my circumstances have changed for the foreseeable future: I will not be able to post in any significant way during the day any more. Corporate IT is cracking down on certain types of web traffic, and Gamersplane is flagged as a "games" site. I can work around it, but it requires me to log in off domain. So just won't be able to post as frequently as I'm used to.

Very sorry all, but I need to bow out of my PbP games for the foreseeable future. I am no longer able to post easily during the day, and I have too much going on in the evenings. My post have been sporadic, and I feel its time for me to call it rather than drag things out.
I hope to be able to return to at least some games in the future.
I appologize to all the GMs and players I am in games with. I've really enjoyed gaming with all of you! I especially appologize for messing up the narrative of the games I am a player in. I hate to do it, but real life circumstances have forced my hand.
Have fun everyone! I'll really miss posting here!

So basically Lin tells to wait here he will be right back... And never comes back.
Jul 15, 2016 7:58 pm
I can work with this, narratively, but we'll need a pilot. Mala's right out, she can't pilot her way out of a dead tauntaun. We can avoid adding another player if Acaatha, Fuzil or Akhrirar want to turn pilot.
Otherwise I can dip into another game where there are some reasonably active players (run by Tuk) and see if someone wants to come over and be the new pilot.
Thoughts?

Jul 15, 2016 8:16 pm
I'm not exceptional but I guess I'd be the best mechanical fit but if Tuk's game is closing down I guess we can see if they'd like to still play unless they're already in this game.
Jul 15, 2016 8:38 pm
Acaatha has Agi 3, Piloting (Space) as a career skill (now, thanks to well rounded) and was building towards co-piloting (no piloting talents, but skill-based capability). Is there another career within her spec that's good at piloting? That would determine how feasilbe it is to drive hard into that area.
Jul 15, 2016 9:49 pm
"Doc how did you end up in a Dead Tauntaun... again? You say I get crazy when I drink." Akhrirar states pursing his lips and give you a very judging look.
Jul 15, 2016 9:55 pm
I've thrown an invite to fluglichkeiten from another game (run by Tuk). He's willing to hop in and be our pilot.
Jul 16, 2016 5:17 am
Hi folks, I hear you're looking for a pilot. How does a six-limbed, pod-racing fanatic xexto ace sound? This guy is a thrill-seeker who is happiest threading asteroid fields or dodging blaster bolts. He loves ships which are fast and manoeuvrable and doesn't have much in the way of scruples.
Jul 17, 2016 12:00 am
"Sounds good, but I'll be frank unless you've spealized in making sound effects the FTY honestly handles like a slab of duristeel concrete in water being pushed by a stick if you're not an exceptional pilot. That's why we only had one guy try and steal out ship, he didn't make it out of the port docking bay."
Jul 17, 2016 12:33 am
"Kinda wish we had the SEA TURTLE ship now" says while feeling queezy from thinking of fast spinning shil.

Flug!
Welcome aboard. Perhaps more so than other games, I'd recommend reading the character creation and OOC threads for this group. There's been a lot of banter back-and-forth that can help you understand the flow of the personalities.
Question -- should you be a known quantity to the team, or are you a new guy breaking on to the team? I can make either work, though the latter is somewhat narratively easier on me. But I'm flexible.

I am thinking that if be some kind of down-on-his-luck pilot who has washed up on Spintir while doing a job for some Hutts. I may have just crashed the ship I was flying and lost the cargo and am suddenly on a Hutt's bad side. Again.

Okay, so that won't work. I mean it would kinda make sense that us pilots would know each other, but it wouldn't work for the game.

Actually, it could be that I met Mala on Nar Shadaa while she was still a slave. I would have been destitute after being shafted by somebody when they sabotaged my ship. Maybe the good doctor patched me up?
Jul 21, 2016 8:05 pm
that's a possibility. and we could just bump into you on this planet and we recognized each other...
Jul 21, 2016 8:20 pm
I would probably be aware that you escaped the Hutts. Since I was still an indentured slave it would have given me hope. Maybe seeing you alive and well gives me the confidence to just leave that life behind.
Jul 21, 2016 8:23 pm

I'm sure Darth and Remnant have already picked this up (since they're in my other game); but we've hit a point where my two campaigns are overlapping. As a result, there may be a little bit of herky-jerky or lag as we get structured time aligned and I post what's going on back and forth.
I think both games are public, so I'll provide a link after the threads diverge again so you can see what it was like from /their/ point of view. But for now I'll be relying on Darth and Remnant to avoid breaking the 4th wall and goin' all meta. :)

All...
I've gone and recruited Moofsalot as your new pilot. She and I are working on her character (and we'll pull together a background) together. I've played a D&D campaign with Moofs -- she was a gnome illusionist, if I recall correctly, who had a thing for shiny objects and was able to interrogate chickens.
Based on my experience in /that/ adventure, I thought she would bring a very good match to the Green Mamba culture. :)

I've played a D&D campaign with Moofs -- she was a gnome illusionist, if I recall correctly, who had a thing for shiny objects and was able to interrogate chickens.

Fuzil, I don't think you fully realize the implication of what you just said...
Oct 6, 2016 12:17 am
But you, you're a thing of beauty. Yeah, I think we're meant to be together. Introduce me to your crew? Wow, ok but we've only just met...
I look up from the console and notice, for the first time, everyone already looking at or speaking to me. "Oh! Uh, hello. Nice to meet you all!" I hold onto a corner of the console to brace myself and smile.

She's weird... Not as odd as Lin though... granted if you hire people using ZoidbergList... Akhrirar thinks to himself and smiles.

Why do they keep looking at my pants... "Oh no, I hope I didn't spill something on myself again..."

Oct 7, 2016 7:55 pm
Moofs - lemme know when you're ready to be thrown in and we can work on the intro mechanics.
Oct 7, 2016 8:00 pm
I'm ready to go whenever, with the caveat that I haven't wrapped my head around the dice mechanics and I'm not sure what to do about equipment so I played it safe with a weapon and stim pack.
Oct 7, 2016 8:11 pm
I'd say go with the DW mindset, what would your character do when 'X' happens and then see what to roll to do that. I for example should probably not be the one driving, I'm the shortest member of the team and highly exciteable if you're read our banter.
Oct 7, 2016 8:15 pm
No worries on dice mechanics. Just ask and I'll happily tell you what dice to roll and how to compute stuff (and how I got there). In the end, difficulty dice are usually modified by me in some regard because we want the game to flow well, but you'll learn how to roll skill/attribute rolls quickly.
I'll start working you in.
By way of background -- should Xenia be someone you guys know from past jobs/interactions? Could be she had a deal go south. Perhaps she was hired by the crew that lifted Lin and ditched to avoid paying her?

That'd be more her decision or maybe there's a reason she wants to find Lin but won't tell us... Da da daaaaaaaaa
Oct 7, 2016 8:30 pm
Someone you guys would know then, and be comfortable with -- but, y'know. you had your pilot. :)
Oct 7, 2016 9:54 pm
The GM in me feels like it's a bad idea for her to also be seeking Lin; generally better to let dropped characters fade from the story than to make them into red herrings.
Also, if we (or someone) knows her that will make the introduction into the team easier. We need a pilot, and hey, here's this woman I met back on Talon XII when I was still a young upstart. We nearly got arrested for swindling a councilor and joy riding their top of the line speeder bike through a busy market and into a hotel pool.

Maybe I was a pilot for one of Akhirar's competitors that one time when he failed? Or someone knows me by reputation.

I like the idea of her being the rightful owner of the ship.. wait.. didn't we steal it?
Oct 8, 2016 1:44 am
Lin stole it from his smuggler boss, yes. But presumably Lin was just nabbed by bounty hunters for that. Seems weird to not also take the ship.
Oct 8, 2016 1:46 am
who says they didn't? maybe one of the bounty hunters was the rightful owner of the ship and she needs to resupply bvefore taking it back
Oct 8, 2016 2:27 am
Or maybe Lin got popped for something unrelated. I mean, how well did you know him really?
Oct 8, 2016 2:45 am
the pilot chair manufacturer's union got fed up with us replacing the vinyl all the damn time
Oct 8, 2016 5:23 pm
Im trying to remember if Lin stoled the ship but then sold it to buy the FTY. If so maybe he bought a hot ship that belonged to her?
Oct 10, 2016 3:14 am
After a few minutes, my eyes start drooping and I fall asleep where I am. I dream of rycrit stew, specifically swimming in it. It is delicious.
Oct 10, 2016 1:31 pm
IIRC: I thought he bailed on a job and took the ship from the guy he thought was in charge (Leader of the crew/gang or captain forget which) and dumped him out at the port before flying off world. Totz fell asleep working on the ship and realized it was in space and not where it was suppose to be. You pulled on him and said hello. You two hit it off for the most part and have been together ever since (I figure the bounty on him was due to not leaving his two week notice letter and taking the ship).
Oct 10, 2016 6:24 pm
Yeah that is all pretty true, but i thought he would have sold the ship to get a new used ship. It would all be in the characters creation but i just don't feel like reading it all. :-)

Ok. Was waiting on Acaatha, but she's had 24 hours so I'm going to post on her behalf to keep this moving.

Ok all done. My kids bday was yesterday so i was busy all weekend till yesterday.
I kinda almost wish i did stay at the ship now to have the weird conversation with the new pilot. Im sure it woukd be weird and akward.

On a plane to Washington, DC at the moment. Depending on in-flight wifi I may get some stuff posted.

Short version -- it could be thu/fri before there's an update depending on wifi workload and my travel-fatigue.
Oct 18, 2016 5:51 pm
Just fyi for the ftw "The other will provide a ongoing -10 to Starship Critical rolls until you receive a Component Hit or Power Fluctuation critical" from a fuzil modification. Just incase... you know our driving.
Also i was looking over my character and me and friar worked on the backstory. The stolen ship was sold so the FTW was bought. Wether legally that was up to Lin.

We need to wait for Farlyx for the dice pool. I believe it will be your pilot planetary skill bs his difficulty. i think pilot space is only for space but i can be wrong
The -10 is only vs hits on the ship that cause crits. When you roll a d100 it will take 10 less. The lesser the number the better off.
Until he gets back it wpuld just be probably rp of you getting into the ship and stuff or just wait.

FYI I have vacation time coming up (Oct. 29th- Nov. 11th) but the first week is sort of a staycation and the second week I'll be in Disney (toddler-free! woohoo!) so in theory I should be able to pop in at least once a day or once every other day.

Acaatha, Fuzil and the strange Twi'lek are on one side of a door that no one else is on.
My understanding is that once the door was opened, Acaatha and Fuzil went in. I would imagine the Twi'lek is within short range.

Should be nice then. Could be a bit rainy, but IIRC spring in England was good (I lived there 15 months from late spring 2003 to winter 2004/5). I liked my time there a lot and it's been about 5 years since we last visited, so it's on the list to visit again in another year or so. Probably summertime next time.

Great questions -- you can definitely open it up and remove it without too much difficulty -- but that sucker is alarmed out to wazoo and even on a cursory examination you know that the second you take it, you're going to trip something major from an alarm point of view.

Does this system support "readied" actions? I want to use misdirect to make fuzil invisible to jubba as he leaves that room, but as I understand the power i need to be able to see the target object (Fuzil) and be within close range of the victim (Jubba).
Nov 14, 2016 9:22 pm
Candi -- I've looked around for 'readied' actions in the rules previously and haven't found anything in RAW. Let me look into it. That said, I'd probably delay adding any home brew (if that's what it'd take) until a 'session boundary' in order to keep things consistent from session to session. It's a slightly arbitrary thing, but I don't want to change the rules mid-step on peeps.
Nov 14, 2016 9:35 pm
Following up -- in my research, everyone is kind anti "readying actions" in the forums with regards to RAW. Rather what should happen, in theory, is shaping how long a round is (and therefore how far you can maneuver, etc.). That works when I control the other side - but with players in both camps it's hard.
As an example -- Akhrirar had a lightsaber up against him. In theory when he moved, the wielder should have had an attack of opportunity ( in D&D terms ). But that's just crunchier than FFG is meant to be. End result -- no. No readying actions at this point, we've got to stay stuck with pretty tight initiative for now because of the construct of players v. players.

Right-o. And I can't wait for Fuzil to "finish" his turn since we're on the same block (or do I technically have to go first)?
Nov 14, 2016 10:32 pm
Strictly speaking, because we're in forced initiative you have to go first. In RAW against NPCs you could take a later slot. I was worried that the standard initiative system would be Really Weird to coordinate between two sets of PCs.
Nov 14, 2016 10:32 pm
@moofs -- it's unclear to me what kind of controls you'd have for the weapons up front. probably not many/any -- as it's designed to be a multi-crew ship.

Just a heads up I'll be in NJ/NY from the 1-4th. If you're in my other games you'll see a similar post.
Dec 6, 2016 6:06 pm
All -- I've invited you into a 'game' where we can coordinate OOC across the two campaigns. With a recent departure from one of them, I'm back down to 3 players there (and 2 of them are in this campaign) so I wonder if there is some opportunity to consider how we want to proceed and/or combine campaigns or not. I'm very flexible, but figured we could have the conversation together....
Dec 6, 2016 6:19 pm
And you can definitely voice keeping the campaigns separate. :). I just don't want to assume that's the right path.
Dec 6, 2016 11:28 pm
Quick additional heads up:
Tue 12/13 - Fri 12/16 - work travel to CA and CO. Uncertain how active I'll be.
Sat 12/17 - Uh. Rogue One. Duh.
Sun 12/18 - Sat 12/24 - skiing Sun Valley
Sun 12/25 - Christmas
So.. basically scarce between 12/13 - 12/25. If things slow down or stop during this time, that's why. I'll be back and raring to go on 12/26 however.

Btw i loved Rogue One. It is my 2nd favorite Star Wars movie now. I need to see it again to see what i missed.
Dec 24, 2016 3:09 pm
I liked it -- but thought Force Awakens was better. Rogue One was very satisfying, but kind of a side dish, rather than part of the main meal. I do need to see it again and see if my opinion changes, however.

Happy Holidays! Sadly it's gonna be a while before I see Rogue One. No spoilers!
Dec 27, 2016 2:31 pm
By some miracle, my sister volunteered to babysit so I was able to watch Rogue One! It was pretty good, but yeah definitely more of a b-side episode.
Dec 28, 2016 2:16 pm
I guess my friends and I all have a different take on on it. I still say it's my second favorite Star Wars movie. I do need to see it again to see what i missed. force awakens was good but I think its is 4th or 5th on my list.
Dec 28, 2016 2:40 pm
This one didn't have that much about the force to me. It might be viewed as a side story or 3.5 as some have doubted it but it's personally my favorite since it pulls in that neither side hasn't gotten dark and dirty in their actions. It also points out Mission Accomplished doesn't mean everyone gets away and lives happily ever after, and sometimes to win a war even when you win some key battles you still lose in a way.
Dec 28, 2016 3:04 pm
They didn't have to lose so much in order for it to be meaningful.
I didn't love Force Awakens but there was so much riding on that movie that it may have skewed my viewing experience. I will need to rewatch.

I do love the fact there were no real jedi or much sabers used in this movie. I also loved how much they lost to get the plans. i hated what happened to them but it made me love the movie more. It's probably why mybtop 2 movies are Empire and Rogue.
The droid was hilarious and also I love Donnie Yen and his movies so I really enjoyed him in this movie.

The Clone Wars TV series is, I think, also really good. I'm less enthusiastic about Rebels.
I thought RO was solid. It was fun and serious in equal measure, which is what I want in a Star Wars movie. It felt a bit, I guess stilted, in parts (although I think that's because of all the re-shooting they did to make Jyn likeable, which was a good decision but made some parts a bit awkward). I loved the end, and I loved that (most) of them all had purposeful deaths, and the smooth connection into Ep IV.

This is exciting to watch. Will Cap'n green pants grab the payload and leave his allies? Will he save Fuzil and Acaatha, or just one? Will he himself be knocked out? How will Xenia respond to Mala's query? Stay tuned and find out!
Dec 30, 2016 5:32 pm
Probably they bust in, shoot the walls up, then arrest everyone and charge us with breaking, entering, and excessive damage to public property. This would be terrible if we hadn't already removed a wall from the building with the ship. Or you guys hadn't, I was unconscious through that whole event so I can't have been responsible.

Does Fuzil still have the cube on him? Ihe got shot but I don't remember the other guy searching his body to get it.
Jan 10, 2017 3:22 pm
Since it was you and him before the human female shot you on the meta you were knocked out from stun blaster fire and he was stated walking away with it so I figure he searched you if you put it away, if it was in your hand I figure you dropped it when you went KO. None of us 'saw' you get shoot since Acaatha was the closest but already down also you possibly got shook down by the guy so he might have taken some of your snacks too and no one saw... besides the lady who shot you. Savage if he did though.
Jan 10, 2017 4:38 pm
Take my snacks??? KILL THEM ALL.
Ok i just wanted to make sure because i did say i was pocketing the cube and that was before i snuck around and got shot.

True. Xenia and Mala on the ship, you and Acaatha are down, five light up sword people plus guards around me and I have to carry you and her out a 2nd floor solo... without getting dropped.
Jan 10, 2017 4:52 pm
well, xenia and mala could always just get out of there and start their own business
Jan 10, 2017 4:55 pm
It may not be the time to be a hero. Mamba getting dropped just makes three unconscious bodies, while Mamba getting out leaves room for rescue in the future.
If you must only save one, I wouldn't be upset if you went for Fuzil -- Acaatha, as I noted in the briefly existing hybrid thread, could transition to the other story as a force sensitive, if the plot demands it. Getting rounded up with them may be just that, though if they leave her out then maybe the guards will take her and the next plot will be a jail break. Who knows where the plot goes from here!

That is certainly not Mamba's job -- pretty sure that job ad has gone unanswered for a half dozen cycles now ("Mercenary Crew seeking Voice of Reason"), but maybe we don't need one anymore since Mala seems to have stepped up to the plate.

You guys are on a roll this morning. :)
The other guy in question is being run by me right now -- so I had him acquire the cube without a lot of narrative flair (apologies). It's fair to assume he'd find it, since pocketing a holocron would either be hideously obvious (are you happy to see me or is that a holocron in your pocket) or in an easy-to-find spot.

Not really. I do this to heighten tension rather than make this a mechanical thing that will Finally Work When You Roll Eight Times. So -- add a Setback die due to a fussy astrogration computer. But regardless of the outcome it'll start working. If you have failures, it'll just take more time, which will stink if you have TIEs shooting at you....
Jan 13, 2017 12:58 pm
Mala's shooting wasn't so bad. ... this time.
If Fuzil wakes up he can help with astro however I suspect i will have a handful of setback seeing in was knocked out for a bit.

I just love how when things go wrong with our crew, it goes wrong in a spectacular fashion. This is freaking epic.

Would my Contraptions power work to make something to help us make it to the ground? Or is that just for engines and stuff?
Once per session, take Contraption action; make a Hard Mechanics check to fashion a device to solve a current problem using just the tools and parts on hand

I was thinking that but also thought maybe its only for mechanical stuff like ships and stuff.
Jan 16, 2017 5:28 pm
Sure thing,
I figure you have a couple options available to you. You can:
(1) maneuver the FTY to enhance Mala's aim. effectively giving her a 'boost' by assisting her.
(2) figure out what's on your long range sensors
(3) ram the FTY into the building (or closer to it) in order to make it easier for akhrirar and the others to get back in.

Jan 16, 2017 7:09 pm
How about a hard piloting roll? (3P). It's not hard to ram into the building, but the objective is to not take damage and stay stable.

Sorry for the delay! wed -> IAD, thu @ work, thu night -> SFO, fri @ work, fri night -> back home. So.. not a lot of free time with an internet connection.
Additionally a warning: business travel Sunday through Friday. I won't have access to GP during the day as I'm in 5 days of all day meetings (or on a plane). But I may have some night-time slots. Sorry for the slow down, but alas, this is why I PbP. :)

I've been sort of following along, but one thing that wasn't clear (and maybe in the haze of travel I didn't pick it up): did Acaatha's assistance roll do anything?
Feb 1, 2017 6:41 pm
Oh! I meant to read up on that last night, which is why I didn't post during the day. Will review and try and accomodate/adjust as appropriate.

Feb 8, 2017 6:15 pm
would any of us know what a jedi is? would we have to roll or something? a lightsaber is pretty distinctive..
Feb 8, 2017 6:25 pm
For people who seen them in the movies yeah but in game if you've never seen or learned about it... those are the guys who read minds and can melt your face right? In all seriousness Acaatha might know... what she shares or how she phrases it, they could be mystic warriors or deadly assassins that wield dark arts.
Feb 8, 2017 7:42 pm
and mala's a bit older so she was alive and aware during the clone wars. I think she would at least know that those were lightsabers and the jedi are all extinct
Feb 8, 2017 7:45 pm
works for me -- it's been ~20 years since Order 66. If Mala's in her 40s (as an example) she'd easily have memory of the Jedi. It might be biased by the Core Worlds propaganda that Palpatine and the New Order have been peddling, but she'd know of the Jedi and lightsabers.
Feb 8, 2017 7:51 pm
so Mala was 16 when order 66 was issued. she would probably believe that the jedi were good at one point, but turned on the government (probably because of her experiences as an alien at the hands of the empire, she might thing that turning on the emperor was an act of goodness as well) but probably convinced that the jedi were extinct. sound good? I don't want to meta game...

As it will help make an upgrade choice: how do we define "sessions" for the purpose of "once per session" abilities?

Candi - I usually consider a 'session' about a month of gameplay. If we find an ability is too powerful with that, we'll extend the duration somewhat.

No worries. On a side note:

the part that really stings is that Mala did have a medical license but the empire basically revoked it because she's an alien

we need to have a scene where some of us get drunk in a cantina and bitch about the empire
Feb 21, 2017 1:32 am
Fuzil would complain about how the food quality went down hill in Empire controlled areas.
I hear you. My family time this went and today was taking care of my kid and my sick wife. She is better now so if it is not busy at work tomorrow I should be posting more.

I want to make it canon that Fuzil also has a copy of "50,000 Dishes On This Side of the Galaxy You Must Eat Before You Die".
So if at some point I would find it hilarious if Xenia and him order a plate and says "number 22,582" and the other one's eyes widen realizing they know what they meant.

I was planning on it a while back (and asked about 1/ session timing) but never actually did it, so before we jump into trouble I just spent 20 XP on a new talent:
Now You See Me
Once per session, as an action, make a 3P Deception check to make a number of NPCs equal to your Cunning within medium range forget about you.
Wish I had that when I was trying to steal the cube... :P

Hey folks -- Lin's player is back from the dead, and I have some ideas. Any concerns with bringing him back in?
My one thought is that this gives us two pilot-focused people. I think I can figure out how to turn Akhrirar into Commodore Akhrirar with /two/ ships in the LLC. Not like the second one would be all that crazy, but it might give us more opportunity for hijinks.

Do I smell Rescue mission? What if it's not a bounty to take him for execution but a marriage arrangementhe bailed on? It might be because of someone mentioning an Transformers RPG but would the ships be able to couple and combine for flight? What are everyone else's thoughts? Also new pilot's thoughts?

"Have you not looked at the pilot seat? It's got his butt print on in literally..."

Sorry for the delay - work travel monday + tuesday (plus no wifi in the hotel) and I caught the plague AND work has at least 3 crises going on at the moment. I'd like to get an update tonight, but I'm going to glug some nyquil and hit the sack instead. fingers crossed for tomorrow.
Worst case scenario I'll be back among the living on Monday (i'm crash coursing to get well because I'm skiing Sun Valley Saturday and Sunday unless I'm throwing up or have lost a limb).

You all gathered together. I'm assuming Mala or Acaatha - one of the responsible ones - rounded you up.

Acaatha certainly gave Fuzil her empty soup cup as a memento, with a wink, "The soup here really is something special."

I will be going on vacation for the next two weeks. I'm taking my family to the United Kingdom.
I will have access to wifi on some days, but being vacation, I don't know how much down time I'll have.
I leave the 7th, return on the 23rd.

All,
Sorry I've been slow lately. I wound up tearing my ACL on my ski trip and dealing with surgeons, trying to get my flexibility back and handling the return-from-vacation workload has occupied a lot of my time. Then, come evening, I've been kind of exhausted due to the extra work to get my knee into pre-surgery state so I've been crashing early.
I'll try and pick things up -- but I've not forgotten about y'all! I'm just operating at less than 100% and so being a little vicious with my prioritization.

Ok! Current status:
1. lots of PT
2. lots of work stress
3. a cold.
4. not sleeping well (due to stress, cold and knee)
5. oh yah! my knee is still horked!
I don't foresee this getting cleaner time-wise 'til June. But if y'all can bear with me I'll move us along hopefully at least a couple times a week. Some weeks will be better than others.

I have to take my laptop in for repair, keyboard's been acting up, so I may be slower (than usual) for a week while I am restricted to my phone and work computer.
May 10, 2017 9:14 pm
Thanks all -- quick heads up that surgery is the 16th. I'm hopeful I'll be able to be more active during recovery/rest when I'm meant to be off work and keeping myself busy with /other/ stuff. I'm sure some of it will be a medically induced stupor from pain meds, but hopefully not for long.
So: fits and starts 'til 5/17. Hopefully more normal on 5/17. After 5/31, I'm back to work and start a new job on 6/5 so some potential wobbly bits 'round then.

No worries man, good luck and wishes for a speedy recovery. I totally understand and the games will be here when you get back and lucid.
Jun 4, 2017 5:45 pm
Remnant will see this a couple times (as will darth -- and probably others!). I underestimated the mental energy required to sit around and do basically nothing for two weeks. Apologies! I'm back at work now (as of Thursday) and life is conforming to a more standard set of principles/schedules so I should be able to get back into things.
For those that are curious, surgery went well and the healing process seems to be going well. Despite all that, it's pretty amazing that I was as out of it as I was (and that's not with the painkillers!). I hope things aren't hurky-jerky with me returning.. but fair warning that I've been away from work for a bit /and/ starting a new gig there /and/ have PT three days a week. So -- some of my spare time is consumed.
oh, and I recently got a Rift. ;)

if you're around, just not really into this part of things, i'll hit the fast-forward button. If you're not around and/or we should pause a bit to give people time to get lives back in balance, we can do that. :)

Understood -- I've gotten busier lately too -- a new puppy means that I have less time around the computer at the end of the day than I normally do -- because either me or my wife need to keep an eye on him (and he still manages to pee inside).

Jul 18, 2017 4:15 am
All -- sorry for the slower pace this summer. Unfortunately with the nicer weather here in the Pacific Northwest, we tend to spend a bunch of time outside until it's nearly dark -- which turns into "I should get to bed" pretty promptly. During the week I also am juggling knee-related rehab three days a week that eats up a couple hours, the other days I need to be on the bike -- so I'm chewing into my free time with this "exercise" crud. Net net -- the games will be a bit slower until the kids start school in September, but I'll keep the posting up!
Jul 21, 2017 1:08 am
Well our new director just outlawed phones and ear buds at our desk. This means my post will be very few and sparse. I don't wanna quit but I will be only be able to post at night.
So if ok to post for me if you need my character to do something if you want me to stay and in not posting.

That said, things have been slow -- and it's definitely my fault. Hopefully y'all don't mind a quieter summer pace. I've been surprised at how little I've been doing this summer, period. :) I'm making this work only because I've got my Surface in at work and finding a few spare minutes here and there. :)
Will update later today -- for now it's off to meetings.

Sorry I've been really lax here. I've been crazy busy at work and post work have not had the free time to sit at the computer minus the occasional hour or two on the weekends. It hasn't been conducive to conducting or participating in campaigns.
I think we've lost Darth to real life.
So I think that has us with:
Moofsalot,
Kjmangle,
Remnant,
Candi
I can work this -- or we can hold tight and recruit some replacement(s) this fall? Any strong opinions?

Hm. Ok.
We're down to you three. I'd prefer another 1-2. Perhaps I can entice Szemely and Abelsbrother to come join the fun?
Remnant - if we went that route, are you ok dropping Heyop for a bit?
Alternately, we can connect Moofs and KJ with the jedi types somehow and follow that storyline.

...I guess what I'm saying is that I'm not likely to keep two star wars games going at the moment, so it might be better to merge the two. :)

I think even with one game some people will likely only have time to post once or twice a week due to timing in truth. I'm fine with dropping Heyop I guess but in truth I figure regardless of what we do for consolidation the absences and slow posting is likely to continue or get longer apart.

Indeed. Option #3, of course, is to dial the game down and let you guys spend your time else-game.
I suppose option #4 is to recruit new blood (again). But I feel like there's only so many people we can drag in as remote acquaintances or aligned interested before we start to strain even my ability to suspend disbelief. ;)

What, everyone's got secret lovers and distant cousins that come out of the woodwork. Happens alllll the time!

Between the two characters I do agree Heyop's at a good breaking point for story. I'm up for Green Mamba hijinx but I'm coming with the understanding we might be waiting a week or so for someone to post even with 5-6 people.

yah. i'm okay not waiting for a week for someone to post and either gently seguing them away or finding a way for them to sit in the background. I get that KJ's limitations cut him down to a couple times a week, and I think we can work with that. I'll poke Csillag OOB (since she left the FAD game to tidy up her forae) and will poke Abel on the forums over yonder.
Ultimately it depends on whether y'all would like to have more merc-related hilarity or more jedi-related hilarity. Given the cast of characters, I'm guessing either path winds up being a little lighter weight in terms of dramatic flair. :)

Hey team -- I'm going to put this one on ice indefinitely. I don't have the time to keep as many games going as I should -- and since we've lost several people and some of the momentum, it makes sense for me to idle this one until I have more time. Right now I've got a couple Middle Earth campaigns running. When one or both of those wind up if people don't want to proceed I'll look to bring back a Star Wars campaign.
Of course, if I find myself with more time, I'll get something fired up again (and reach out to y'all) but for now, I think the best thing is to close up shop for a bit. I'll change the # of players down to 0 and boot our idles and let y'all close out when you're ready.

Thanks for running, falryx! Let me know if you're ready to bring this game back (or something similar) and I'll join back up.

Ok thanks also. I was taking a quick peak to see where we are at.
