I’m also good to move on to something else.

I'm also good to move on, but I am going to ramble in Session 1 as long as everyone lets me.

I'm happy to ramble as well :) We can move on at any time though.

As for the ransom, let's first agree on the particulars of the exchange. Here's what I'm thinking: we'll return the crew but keep the ship. We'll give them a location at sea to meet us—close enough to land that there are landmarks nearby, but far enough away that they can't sneak up on us. We'll be there in the Mare (or I guess whichever ship is faster). If they send a ship close to us, like within artillery range, we run and the deal's off. They have to send one man in a rowboat to bring us our ransom and pick up the captives, ferrying them back to the main empire ship a few at a time. So the questions for me are where is a good place to meet and what is a good price? Both answers require some setting knowledge.

As experienced pirates you would know of a good meeting place. 1,000 imperial shillings would be a reasonable asking price.

We are playing story game rules, so feel free to add in details as you need them.

If you add something unusual that gives you a significant advantage I may ask for a fate point to make it true.

What skill would be needed to ensure a proper ransom note is written?

It doesn't need a skill roll. We can skip the note if no one wants to write it.

Do you take the Mare and the full crew to the meetup location?

With no roll needed, I say we head to the meeting spot.

At the moment the crew is split up. So, do we want to say that we left the Trenton in a friendly port and just jump to the exchange? I can't think of a reason to stay split up—unless we want a team to guard the Trenton.

I will get a post up shortly, sorry for the delay.

Seraphine's create advantage succeeded.

Elwood can make a sailing overcome (target 2) to establish favorable conditions.

Sorry, I'm a little slow posting during the holidays. I will get something out soon and pick things up again once the holidays are over.

I'm more or less in the same boat.

My holidays will vary between insanely busy, and being at a complete loose end.

Happy to stay chill over the holiday break.

I'm very sorry everyone. I don't think I have the bandwidth anymore to keep running the game.

You guys made amazing characters and it was fun playing with you for the brief campaign.

Thanks for the effort and time Redcap--I know I was not the most contribution heavy fella for this one, but I was really enjoying everyone's posts and characters and enjoyed the posts I did interact with!

No worries, you ran a great game.

I appreciate the effort @Redcap. Sad to see this game end.

Sorry to hear that, Recap. I had fun with this one. Hopefully we'll play together again sometime.

No worries, I've been through that myself. Thank you for the game.
