We're going to be a perfect duo! :D
..I wonder if it would be mechanically possible for your cleaning robot to get on top of my security car and do the trash blower attack (if you choose it) from there. Weaponized leafblower on wheels!
Trash blower will probably be the second one I take, so eventually.

Can you give an example of what does Force skill do? Is it like a physical effort against a non-combatant? Would it work for things like ramming stuff?

Also, wouldn't Analyze be better for the map thing than Datamine?
I dunno. Now that you have the chargen chapters, look into page 53 for Force and pages 55 and 56 for Analyze and Datamine. They can explain it way better than I would be able to. =D

@BedzoneII how should we choose our chassis parts? Should we roll for order? Choose all parts at once and see if everybody agrees? Choose one part and wait for everyone else to choose one, then we choose a second, wait for everyone else and finally the last?

I was thinking I'd make lists In preference order, I'm not picky I think FS needs the wheels.

For me top pick would be everything at the top of each list Interestingly enough and then second pick if someone wants any of that Something with 0 Network. (or 1 in the case of Torso)

Sounds good to me. My first picks would be LUX NANITO+, ÖZKUN TN75 and ORION V "BOLO". For second picks I'm prioritizing parts with network 2. None of my first picks are in the first row.

I'm affronted that the book suggest we use Move to *escape* sticky situations. :V

For ease of chassis picking, we can maybe set up a multi-poll? Like this? And same for other parts.

Head Part Preference Multi Public

Odessa
Lux
Phoenix
Solun
Kordura
Scrap
Pashin
Mumla

I'll just drop polls here in case we do use them and delete later if not. XD

Torso Part Preference Multi Public

Diderot
Fenzhou
Ganymeda
Modessi
Özkun
Scrap
Kleenkorp
Pylon

Great Idea 👍

You people are way more organised than I had anticipated, and here I thought there might be a weekend slowdown! I think of the three games I launched, we might be first on our wheels (pun intended!)

Thanks for starting the polls Flying!. Once everyone has voted, and if there's a clash we can roll for it.

Hey, robots do be processing things fast. :P
Gotta wait for timplausible to choose, but so far it looks like

htech: Lux, Ozkun, Orion (1/3/5/5/2/4)
KoldikSteelskin: Odessa, Diderot, Dyno-Q (6/2/3/2/3/5)
FS: Phoenix, Ganymeda, Rougell (4/6/2/2/2/10)

...Hmm, I'm questioning my processor choices. But I guess I can just boost Datamine by itself.
May 4, 2024 1:16 pm
I will wait for timplausible as well, but I think I will change to use the Kordura head, to have more balanced stats and better network. Robots are good at min-max, so let me focus on talking.

Here is how it's looking so far, its still incomplete, but I have also added some formulas there:
[ +- ] Sir

Sir is clearly going to be the brains of this operation. :'D

I share another game with Timplausible, I think he slows down over the weekend, so no rush for anyone.
May 4, 2024 3:28 pm
Now that I can see the rules, and looking at everyone's chasis choices, I'm pondering a change of concept. I hope to nail it down sometime today

Nevermind. An idea just clicked. And my chasis choices don't even conflict with anyone.

The character info ends part way through the repair unit module. Can someone tell me what the Repair Module's full text is?
May 4, 2024 5:16 pm
@BedzoneII will probably fix it. He missed the last page, I guess.

Either way, the repair module can:

- Repair 1 point of damage per EP spent. The
repairs are done in one round, and you are
free to do other things during the time. (E)
- Repair a broken module. This also takes one
round and costs 2 EP. (E)

Here's Ox, my character so far. Industrial robot with a focus on building & repair. Not so great at other stuff, because why would it be?
[ +- ] Ox

So we now need a pool for modules, I guess, as we can't start with the same ones as well.

My suggestion is that everyone should vote multiple times, up to their Modules stats:

Modules Multi Public

Accelerator
Back-Up System
Chainsaw
Control Circuit
Disruptor Virus
EMP Protection
Energy Management
Energy Pulse
Extra Arms
Grenade Launcher
Holoflage
Holo-Projector
Hover Drone
Howler
Interrogator
Jetpack
Medical Unit
Mining Drill
PSI Protection
Reactive Armor
Repair Unit
Riot Control
Sensor Pulse
Tentacles
Wire System
