Mykkel, do you want to take a Debt? I'm willing to take the Debt myself and buy the Conspiracy Theorist for you. Otherwise I'll just buy everything else and people can argue over them.

No skin off my back if you want to just go your own way, Tendales, but I think our current location is a city space, so you can do both your actions here, then move to Arkham on my turn.

Just to clarify, Tendales could take a train ticket at the current location, because the city has train tracks coming out of it. But you can only get ship tickets at a port.

Take a Bank Loan. Buy everything except the Conspiracy Theorist. Give Search the Archives to Daisy Walker. Does anyone want either Mineralogy Research or Elder Sign?

Diana should probably get the Elder Sign. I can take the Mineralogy Research if no one else is in a better position to use it.

Some Numbers posted:I, uh. San Fran encounters, as the city says, are more likely to offer improvements to Observation. However, there's a 'Generic City' option - usually drawn when you end your turn on a non-major City - and you do technically have the option to go for that, if you'd like. One is not strictly better than the other but the actual locations tend to have more effects. TURN 1 ACTION PHASE, CONT. Charlie hands out loot, picking up a Loan and a Ship Ticket.

What's a Funding condition? SF Encounter
|
# ? Jun 8, 2016 01:35 |

A Funding can either nullify taking a Debt, or it can be discarded instead of taking a debt. On a Reckoning you can choose to flip the card (with the implication that your funds have matured, or maybe have vanished).

Yup, Influence test. Doesn't matter where you are. Theoretically, someone else on your space could do it for you, you know, if you wanted to gimp yourself.

LiTaS legit sucks and I dislike the whole mechanics of it. On the other hand you guys ticked the Mystery, have a way to grab the other clues to London to keep ticking the Mystery, and have drawn... what, a grand total of 8 assets now? (If Finn had failed his roll he was also looking at drawing a LiTaS, but in his case that would have been hilarious because it'd block his courier run.)

Diana was disoriented, she had gone to sleep in Buenos Aires, having surrendered her manuscripts to the bruiser that was holding Alexandro Jimenez's debts. Alexandro had been correct on the alien experiments in the Senator Kane had shipped her an interesting trinket that was supposed to assist in matters of will.
