Character Creation and OOC

If we spend a Momentum to Obtain Information does Aurin's Studious talent kick in? Or is that only when he is the prime roller and not an assist?

Unless there are other / better suggestions (or if the Studios Talent is applicable and we get an additional free question) I was going to ask if we can learn from the logs if the mirror Away Team had been on their mission long enough to make their own scans/studies of the anomolies?

So... systens question here...

What is a difficulty 1 roll? So far, everything has been framed as difficulty 2 or 3, but what would constitute a roll that's difficulty 1?

Sorry, I am travelling. I thought there would be plenty of time to get some posts in but the trip suffered some delays. I'll try to pitch in hopefully tomorrow.

Modiphius has released the Star Trek Adventures Second Edition Quickstart Rules for those interested.

Drake has Control - 9, Con - 4 if anyone wants him to roll.

I'm assuming that Luna is better? Being our pilot?

@Stefron?

Nice roleplaying everyone!

Qralloq are you able to clarify where we all are. I must admit. I am a bit confused.

The confusing part might be that Drake ran back from the doppelgangers to man the interface.

Archives: Cole, Aurin-Ah, Dr. M'Ress, and Drake

Power room: Luna leaving the Archives going to the Sculptor Apparatus

Sculptor Apparatus: Jayce, Doppelgangers

Thanks!! I reread through everything but still missed that Drake ran back to the main interface.

A Humble Bundle has come out for STA.

Is the rest of the team privy to what is occurring in the Sculptor Apparatus room?

Not without someone saying something over comms.

I made an extra roll using 1 momentum. I thought it was a good idea to make it hidden in case others objected. I was hoping that the GM could see the hidden momentum roll result in any case but, I'm not sure that is the case.

@Seck - I have no objection to the spending a point of Momentum and would say it is highly appropriate to do so ...

@Qralloq - I may be wrong, but I seem to recall the max cap on Momentum was 6. Is that not accurate?

You're correct. I missed reading that my first time through.

@Qralloq - when can it be assumed Cole and Aurin will arrive at the Sculptor Apparatus?

You can assume they arrive, it's not very far. Go ahead and post doing so.

This ending has dragged on way longer than I expected. I'm not sure that this game has maintained the interest of anyone, so let's discuss. In particular, a few of the PCs have had difficulty finding any moment in which to shine for which I bear responsibility for and apologize.

My plan was twofold:
1) use this quick seeming adventure to really teach us how to use the rules.
2) run a less action heavy, at least initially, scenario of my own design at a technology seminar where RP might shine and lead to some Star Trek style adventure toward the end.

However, I'm not sold on the arbitrary Difficulty system that underpins this version of the 2d20 rules. (I have the same struggle with Dune.)
