Read First: Character Creation Discussion

You all know of one another. Also, as previously mentioned, you will all have assigned crew roles on The Spear of Akrulta. Sith Military Command put you together for the diverse set of skills you offer, as they did with every other unit like yours.

Ok final decision on how I’m spending the acquired money. First off I’m taking the free upgrade for my light saber to increase the critical rating to 1. Then to ensure I get the max benefit for my weapon I will pay the five times penalty to upgrade the damage rating four times. So my new weapons stat should be.
Damage: 10 (4 X modded damage)
Critical Rating: 1 (modded crit. rating)
Specials: Breach, Sunder, Immune to Sunder, vicious 1
Mods: (paid for mods, 4X damage, free 1 Crit. Rating, paid for mod vicious 1)
Hard Points: Used-2/Remaining-3
Encumbrance Value:1
Cost for modification: 2,500

The last of my cash will go toward the purchase of two SYNTHETIC NEUROPARALYTIC drug, costing 150 credits, which is the last of my cash.

OK, I have read through the acquisitions in this thread and I am not sure where we are at i.e. what we are looking to buying and how much we each need to chip in. I have 850 cr in my illegal, as a player I am happy to contribute this to the group and allow somebody else to make the decision on what to buy with it (because I don't know), if it is in line with what everyone else is contributing. It doesn't need to be exact Cr amounts, but if we aren't all contributing, I will look to spend the remainder on gear. I didn't read the guidelines properly and cclrbrts30 last post made me realize that the Illegal can be spent on Legal as well, so as a hate filled Trandoshan monster ;-) there are items I will spend it on if we can't get the group thing going.

CCL, you seem to have misunderstood the directions from the Library below.

The rules we're using, from the Library:
"Each mod attempt costs (100 credits for tools and supplies multiplied by how many mods you'll have after the new one is installed). So, for example, your 3rd mod would cost 300 credits."

Perhaps adding to the example included above would help. 2nd =200, 3rd=300, 4th=400 etc. Anyway...


Actual cost for your lightsaber mods:

1st mod: Crit Upgrade (free from construction): 0 crdits
2nd Mod: Damage#1 (2 mods now. Normal cost of 200 credits x5 = 1000 credits)
3rd Mod: Damage#2 (3 mods now. Normal cost 300 credits x 5 = 1500 credits)
4th Mod: Damage#3 (400 x 5 = 2000 credits)
5th Mod: Damage#4 (500 x 5 = 2500 credits)
6th ModL Vicious#1 (600 x 5 = 3000 credits)

Total Cost: 10,000 credits.

Also, for those of you putting the extra time and effort into group logistics and acquiring the ECUL group vehicle (again, I can tell some of you are clearly more vested in this), to save you some time from asking back and forth via posting, it would seem that Krosus is not planning on pitching in, which is absolutely his option.

How very Sith like :) Krosus, sure that's not a Greed for your Morality? It might be more fitting...

Just giving you a hard time. I figured with 6 Dark Side players, someone would do this.

To each their own.

It's why I gave everyone their own resource allotment, to allow you to play your character the way you want to.

Uh-oh... what if nobody wants to pitch in for the group vehicle? First Krosus, now maybe Mrvain...

The Logistics team has its work cut out for it.

They can walk. Speeders are only for team players.

Ok, definitely my bad, I guess I should read the Manuel before trying to fix myself. Also I blame my sith instructors for my ignorance: ) public school on this planet is terrible. I am still spending all my credits on mods for my light saber however as Krosus sees this as the most important thing to him. He has no doubt that with this skilled group it will take no time to acquire more tools of war for their glorious cause.

Having done some math, Hawke's chipping in a grand total of 950 cr for the group vehicle. Granted, he's expecting that he'll get to play around under the hood while traveling through hyperspace when not working on his armor. He has a very hard time sitting still. If he's forced into sit/stand in one place for a while, he's spending most of that time assembling some sort of doo-dad.

Given the use it or lose it "bombshell" (I kid, I kid), I opted to spend the last 50 credits from character creation on another extra reload for each firearm. It's noted on my sheet.

While, Lissewa is definitely Greed for Morality, I don't see putting forth all the money she has for the mission as a thing going against that because she's also a practical person. As it's been stated, we will be going out on this mission for a very long time, possibly never to return. Self-preservation is way high up there on her priorities. With that in mind, she will be giving the necessary 834 to the group for the ECUL, as well as an additional 1049 towards the purchase of the vehicle or any additions to it.

It goes without saying, but Tajanna will pay her $834 share of the ECUL, and will contribute her remaining $213 towards any additional group purchases.

Also, a couple of lore questions for Ezeriah:

Do our characters have formal military ranks in the Sith Military, and if so, what are they?

Are the Force Sensitive characters in our group considered to be Sith Lords, or are they merely 'regular' Sith who have yet to achieve Lordship?

More broadly, how do Sith titles (Lord, Darth, Master, etc) work in the new Sith Empire? Are all Sith considered to be both Lords and Darths, as with the Rule of Two Sith in the movies, or are Lord and Darth distinct ranks within the Sith, which not all Sith hold, such as in the Sith Empire in SWTOR?

All but one is good enough for me. I had the impression from reading through the thread it was going to be less than that but it was hard to track. Count me in. I believe I had 850cr illegal aquisition left, so I till put that in as well.

As far as reasoning goes, Even though Tashal hates you all, there are others more deserving of his hate. He is pragmatic and understands that our strength as a group will be bad for those enemies

That should be interesting. You could always charge them a fare, lol.

Yes. Blames the Sith schools. Too much 'ready yourselves for war' and not enough " 2 + 2 = 4".
Way to stick to your guns. It's your character, and I'm sure you've already gauged the potential social fallout.
Confidence is always nice, but it's only confidence.

Transportation is always nice.

It was a bombshell... I can appreciate that, as it was for me in a way as well. Just struck me out of nowhere. But it made complete sense. Your Sith credits just won't register as money in the Galactic Banking System. Not only would they be foreign, there'd be no exchange rate, no recognition of them as money, etc. Sith credits would simply be alien to the galaxy.

Makes sense. Self-preservation, in some cases, can be a form of greed.
ECUL benefactor here! 1883 credits toward the group vehicle and/or upgrades to it.

1047 toward the group vehicle! Above and beyond!

You're giving all of your illegal funds, doing your part. You guys are closer and closer to not having to walk...

Okay, unless I missed it somewhere else, Dramasailor has also spent most of their credits on their own character, leaving 66 credits towards the purchase of the vehicle. Unfortunately based on my calculations, we needed another 270 in order to get the speeder. Not off to a great start, team.

EDIT: Oh, nevermind, took a closer look at their itemized list and saw they did actually put the 834 towards the speeder purchase, plus 66 more for a grand total of 900 credits. Which puts us over being able to get the ECUL and leaving us with 630 credits in the group fund. Not enough for any additional modifications but we could look through our lists and see what other supplies we may need. We could always use more medical supplies and ammunition (though most of you use lightsabers), or perhaps some backup weaponry like knives and hold-out blasters.
