I can't help the silly thought of Dawid being some protagonist from some dime novel or TV show Jakub likes.
"Wow, is that the Zorro?"
Interesting:) Can you elaborate ? It is the way I described him ? Or the current situation? Something else?

The current situation. Something about a kid riding down the street and recognizing a secret agent makes me think about him watching a spy novels/show in which that secret agent featured.

That's quite an amount of snow! :) Where I you from if I may ask?
Wisconsin in the United States near Canada.
Pedrop says:
Can I have some more in canister attached to it or something like that?
You have a canister that can be attached to the bike. At the moment of the encounter, it's empty.
Pedrop says:
I would like Dawid to have VIS 35 pistol (great polish design, considered by some as one of the best pistol in the world). I based its stats on M9, just bumped Reliability to 6. Would that be ok? I will roll d6 to see how many mags I will have for it - according to Spook starting gear rules. As each mag is only 8 bullets, I will also roll d12 to see how many individual bullets he also have - hopefully that also will be ok? :)
The stats for the pistol seem fine to me. For mags, roll d6 and we'll consider each mag full.
Pedrop says:
In the meantime it would be good to establish what is connection between Dawid and Jakub, and maybe other PCs?
I'm open to anything, but I like the idea that Jakub learned that Dawid is a spy and now treats Dawid as some kind of celebrity because Jakub reads so many spy novels.

20 inches! (Sigh) We don't get snow like that anymore, not even over the course of the winter. :(

Nice! As you can see, GM have made a perfect use of those ideas!:)

Canister noted.

I have rolled for it here

I love this idea too! But "who" is Jakub for Dawid? Do Dawid know Jakub some more?

My suggestions:

Dawid had a mission that took him to Eastern Poland, where Soviet influence was prominent. Tasked with sabotaging a military installation, he operated as a lone special operative, recognizing the need for alliances with NATO-friendly locals. Some of these locals, including Jakub's family, became crucial connections. Jakub's father emerged as the lead local conspirator aiding Dawid in his mission. After successfully completing the mission, Dawid had to discreetly depart from the area.

In short, Jakub is the son of a friendly Polish man who was critical in helping Dawid complete a mission. Dawid would know that Jakub is trusted individual.

I should be back to my "normal" posting frequency for this game.

A love those ideas GM! Noting them on my sheet and will be using :)

Just a note -- attending a virtual gaming con this weekend and will be out of pocket until Sunday night. Have Baker support as necessary, but don't wait on my posts!

Tedic is watching from the Humvee. He doesn't speak Polish, but he can tell this person's a more than a bit of a talker.

"Jakub, who is this guy?"
Sorry for that wall of text! I treated it still as my PC introduction, my following posts will be gradually shorter:)
Jan 22, 2024 10:57 pm
No problem, I just found the spitfire talk pretty funny.
Jan 23, 2024 9:07 pm
So I'm not sorry any more:) As it was meant to look that way - as Dawid is trying to cover his stress with being talkative and even trying to joke.

I’ll try and give you more intel on the maps today or tomorrow

Thanks!

Besides all my questions/considerations in IC threads, I wonder if we could put Jakub in some safe place for the time of the heli extraction mission and fly back for him on our way out from the area. I think Dawid would certainly be worried about his safety in such "gangers" environment. And it could be easier to play not to have take care about his NPC during some fights. Maybe Dawid could know such a safe place in the area?

Unless you have an idea that you really want to run with, I’d vote that Dawid’s knowledge Kraków’s current conditions is limited.
Jan 30, 2024 2:21 am
Might not be a good solution there. Leaving him alone? Eh. Leaving someone with him, with the intention of picking them up later? Dividing our forces and the party for RP purposes.

Question: will a fully fueled chopper be able to make it to our final destination?
Jan 30, 2024 2:32 am
Yes, the Helicopter can travel 400km in 1 shift. It uses 20l per 10km (1 hex). It will have roughly 300 liters of fuel.

combat speed 10, travel speed 40, armor level 1 on all sides, fuel capacity 800 and fuel consumption 20.
Jan 30, 2024 11:41 am
Yeah. I agree with that: Dawid knowledge about current status of Kraków is certainly smaller than Marcin's. But I was thinking something "before" Krakow - like Dawid's grandparents or friends house at some country side - so we could leave Jakub there in safety and go back for him after Krakow mission. But if other want to take Jakub with us - I have no problem with it at all. The aim was not to have to "handle" this NPC during fights and recon. For convenience sake, but not so important to me at all.
