Chapter 0 - Characters

CUF is indeed Coolness Under Fire.

@SpiritualSock511 Thanks for the help! I've downloaded the Player's Manual so that I can refer to it. I'll put the finishing details on my character soon.

Nonsense, He'll probably outlive the group! :D

Those go on the specialties line near the top of the sheet.

Runner +1 to MOBILITY rolls for running.

Psy_Ops +1 to PERSUASION rolls for changing someone's mind about a particular issue.

Combat_Engineer +1 modifier to TECH rolls for placing and disarming mines and explosive device, and to RECON rolls to avoid mines.

Improvised_Munitions +1 to TECH rolls for making zip-guns and IEDs.

(A zip-gun is an improvised single-shot firearm using parts easily found at Home Depot)

@ForeverDED, I updated your character sheet.

Mountaineer +1 to MOBILITY rolls for rappelling, ascender-climbing, and knot-tying.

Linguist You know another language of your choice, well enough to be taken as a native on a PERSUASION roll. (Your choice I suggest Polish or Russian.)

Scrounger +1 to SURVIVAL rolls for scrounging.

@saevikas, I updated your character sheet. It's worthing noting that you have a backpack and an absurd amount of firepower.

Everyone in the Group
It looks like we'll be ready to start this weekend. The chapter 1 thread is locked but available if you want to see how things start. In the interim, feel free to ask questions about your character, the setting, the system, or anything else.

Wow. I guess that's kind of a morale check, right?
Thanks!
Is that the one on Scribd?

Chief Petty Officer Kowalski should be ready. :)

He's a country boy, raised by Polish Grandparents. Enlisted in the Navy to earn college money, got out went to a Tech College to become an EMT which he spent six years doing before reenlisting in the Navy and becoming a Navy Seal.

The last official message from HQ was "Good luck, you’re on your own now", so you wouldn’t act as if there is an official chain of command. However, military habits would be ingrained in all of your characters, and I think it would be hard to not naturally fall into those patterns. Ultimately, it’s up to you on how you want to handle it.

When you get shot at (hit or missed) you have to make a CUF check. If you fail the check, you become suppressed, you immediately drop prone, suffer one point of stress, and lose both actions on your next turn.

@Dmbrainiac, @ForeverDED, and @saevikas
Let me know if you have any questions about your gear.

Mine looks pretty self-explanatory.

Good to go.

I'm good to go as well.

If you haven’t already, think about a moral code for your character and add it your character sheet.

EXAMPLES OF MORAL CODES
- You have a moral obligation to help those worse off than you
- War is a glorious thing and you are meant to command.
- Freedom is everything. No one tells you what to do. Ever.
