Mister Bates, is your Hx+2 with Roadside from your 'Fancies themselves People of the Key' bond? I don't have a problem with our characters knowing each other though. I just wasn't aware you had put down the +2; I thought that was a choice for the other players.

Correct you are. I forgot about my 'Hx+1 for everyone else,' since it takes literally no thought. No need to change anything on your end.

(The answer is yes, if you count an RPG as 4-harm and it's being fired as part of a small gang.)

In case it wasn't clear, Mask is going to loan Drift a bike, give Gatito a haul on the tanker, and Grim can ride wherever: back of Mask's bike, or with another biker, or the cab of the truck.

I figure it's more interesting for the hardholder to search Spector's tent himself than it is to send someone to do it. I think the next step of the plan would be dropping by the mess tent and talk to the barman or something. Error 404 posted:It is.

This windfall is making me disappointed I didn't choose the marketplace hold improvement, I could totally get an XP by rolling Hot to Manipulate currency markets. Does give me a few mostly flavor ideas for hold upgrades and hooks, though.

I added the Gang and Pack Alpha move to my sheet. I assume the gang gets the 2 Positives, 1 Negative as a Chopper does? Edit: I changed that video in my last post too. Way more appropriate. Green Intern fucked around with this message at 12:32 on Jun 5, 2015 |

Foo, I am not usually a stickler for position, but the Destroyer is still a hundred yards or so away. That means that it action can happen, but Mask and the Knots get a chance to act first. Figured you're okay with that, just wanted to say so. You can always revise it if things go up in flames, literally or otherwise.

My last post had a successful Opening Your Brain roll that didn't get responded to in any way; the scene has moved on so it isn't really relevant anymore, but I just thought I'd point it out.

For the Desert Road crew, we're close if not already there. Don't think there's anything more Drift needs to do there.

The group at Mercy is probably close to being done as well, depending on how Lin's negotiations turn out, and whether a doctor is available.

Yeah, I'm deliberately writing to an end-of-session break in the next update. So long as the Keymaster is willing to pay 1-barter to have a doc try to save Freeway, we're in. MisterBates, you can just narrate that out if you like (or we can hash out something else).

Can't say I'm super enthusiastic about the improvement I took, adding lucrative raiding to my hold's gigs, but I figure it really fits the story. I'm pretty sure Lin ain't happy at all, either. I think the next one I plan to get is to get rid of the no walls downside. It's just getting too dangerous for Lin to keep putting that off; so he's going to have to put off more projects that he'd rather do, like getting a bustling marketplace or dropping unruly from his gang. Too busy for self-improvement, too, haha. I think the end goal for Lin is to get rid of the paying tribute downside. Might even retire the character if I ever get that far. If I take the raiding improvement to the hold, and then butcher the raiders later, can I trade that improvement for the bustling marketplace one later, to represent, well, wiping out the raiders and building up the hold?

Rockopolis posted:If I take the raiding improvement to the hold, and then butcher the raiders later, can I trade that improvement for the bustling marketplace one later, to represent, well, wiping out the raiders and building up the hold? Okay, let's break down how this works: Your raiding improvement doesn't really represent your hiring of the gangs - you can do that without spending experience. What the raiding improvement guarantees is that they cut you in for a piece of it, likely in return for you funding or supplying them (surplus: +1barter). It also means that someone will know that you're behind it and might try to hit you back for it (want: +reprisals). You can spend your advance on the marketplace if you don't want those mechanical effects! Also, you can gain HX on anyone. It can be that you heard about their exploits, or that you have more experience with people like them, or that you're interested in meeting them - anything that can justify your relating to them on a closer level. You're going to be more involved with the PCs in the future, so no worries

Okay, I'll edit it. Argh...it's hard to decide. I shouldn't pick it if I want it to be temporary, right? Lin doesn't want it, and I'd rather get something else, but this does seem like one of those 'temporary' solutions that tends to become permanent. I don't know, am I digging too hard for ways to throw problems at Lin? What happens if I don't take the raiding improvement?
