OOC - Discussion and Table talk

I wasn't sure if we wanted the Character Creation thread to drift into the permanent OOC thread.

Fair point. Should have thought of setting up an OC thread ahead of time, kudos for the initiative.

Having difficulty interpreting the rules for "Terminal Reflection", do I expend effort at the beginning of the day so it can trigger? Or do I expend effort after it triggers?

No. It automatically triggers. You then Commit Effort or the sense goes numb and you can't use it that day.

"The psychic’s Oracle power automatically triggers as an Instant action moments before some unexpected danger or ambush, giving the precog a brief vision of the impending hazard. This warning comes just in time to avoid springing a trap or to negate combat surprise for the precog and their companions. If the psychic does not immediately Commit Effort for the day, this sense goes numb and this technique cannot be used for the rest of the day."

Which makes it super good, because you don't have to know in advance you just have to have some effort available.

Ah that makes sense, thanks. So it basically triggers automatically, and if I want to use it again in the day, I have to commit effort.

Yah. It's pretty badass.

Personally I'm hoping Ben doesn't get us blown out into space before we have a chance to do anything. :)

"This is the captain. We have a little problem with our entry sequence, so we may experience some slight turbulence and then - explode."

I love that the ship is going to crash and Wood is concerned his pistol is going to be OK.

I also love that the first thing we do is split the party.. hah hah. This always goes well. :)

Right and we hid the fight-y types in the engine room and sent the Tissue paper Tigers out to explore... Topher has more hit points than the three of us combined :)

Yes, I am quite ready for any bumps and bruises from standing up and hitting my head on the injector coil :)

I hope my psychic sense saves me from a quick death. 😅

Good luck guys! Just holler if you need us fight-y types! Do we have man-to-man communications? I have a compad but not sure if that allows us to communicate short distances.

"Most TL4 worlds have global comm coverage, but primitive worlds render these devices useless without a nearby comm server to provide connectivity."

My guess is we are on Verizon and this planet is Cricket.

Wouldn't our vaccsuit radios be enough to communicate? It has a 10km range.

Nice, good catch. So either way we are still in communication.

Apologies for the delay there, not ghosting you just dealing with some emergency repairs at home and the construction process has me overseeing workers while my PC is covered in plastic to protect it from dust. Will get back on track asap, likely after the weekend.

thanks for the update, DarK_RaideR!

Thanks for the post.
Home ownership is definitely a double-edged sword.

"Congratulations, you are the proud servant of this new home, hopefully it will be a good owner to you."

No worries and be safe, nothing like a face full of dust to ruin your day or you PC. :)
