Crew Creation

@Harrigan - I'm down with Vanguard, I think I said Vanguard or Assault back in the interest thread. Still trying to pour over the book and get my head around my options. Did I read correctly we are creating 2 characters? If so, are we running them both or just having the backup on standby in case of death?

I think we get only 1 character, but we get 2 moves instead of 1

Ironmonger has the right of it. Harrigan made a comment about Troupe play, but I have a history of biting off more than I can chew, so I'm keeping my ambitions comfortably attainable at the moment :P

Okay, so, I feel like the Crew discussion has spiraled out into other threads, I'm going to try and consolidate where we're at on this for the moment.

Decided
Vanguard Crew

Still Deciding
Initial Upgrade (1.5 Votes for Priority Treatment, .5 Votes for an Elite Scout Cohort)
Crew Affiliation (Looks to be leaning towards ARES via CASPR Defection)

To Be Decided
A Faction that the Crew has worked with.
A Faction that the Crew has worked against.
A Squad that the Crew has worked with.
A Squad that the Crew has worked against.

In case it's not clear, a Faction is the headliner for a group (ARES, CASPR, Wraiths of Mars, Vitruvian Institute, etc.). A Squad is one of the sub-groups (The Aggressors, New Ithaca, Ghost, The Human Plus Program, etc.). The Squads do not have to line up with your Faction choices, though squads who don't align with their factions are subject to pressure through The Shakeup mechanic.

Is there anywhere we can find a 1 to 2 sentence summary of the factions you have in play? Something as simple as:

and maybe something similar for squads?
