It's all good. Yeah, I'll have a post in later today. When everyone is back together, everything should run more smoothly... Ideally lol. Anyhow, we shall wrap up current events soon.

So did Jackie already receive her share of the gun sale? That is, should I mark 200 caps on my sheet?

Actually, in scanning the thread to make sure I had my kit in order, it should be 120 apiece, since Lloyd's barter check was sub-par (700 caps instead of the expected 800) Also - I'm a terrible person and forgot to give the deathclaw a cut, hence my original figure of 200.

I don't think I'll be needing a cut. Did plenty of side work to be comfortable yet. Not sure what a deathclaw would do with money, but feel free to find out with whatever my share was. Should be about 175 a piece from 700 for 4 people.

Sorry, posted in MIA thread but neglected other threads. I was out of town to see my gram gram. She isn't doing too hot and probably isn't long left so I had to address that. I'm back though! I'll have something up today.

Sorry, just been busy today and can't post at work right now because I broke my phone on accident and I'm using some slide out keyboard relic right now, just now getting time to sit at the comp, but it'll be edited into that same post here in the next 15 minutes. You haven't really gained equipment, but you've lost ammunition and gained some caps as far as your sister is concerned. She'll have that 10mm pistol that she was wearing in the house when you first saw her after she got done at the Unity tent, and I'll generalize her survival gear. Anyhow check in just a few.

Sorry I've been absent so much. I just moved into a new place, and some serious poo poo happened that's kind of turned my life sideways unexpectedly. This thread is awesome, though, and I'm super into this game. I'm going to start postin' regular, I promise---hopefully every other day.

Is the guy in any kind of cover? According to the RAW, even in low light / night I get PE + Weapon Range in Meters, which is 26 meters or 85 feet, so he's well within range. I want to know what I'm dealing with if I start shooting.

Don't even sweat it. I understand all too well how life comes in. At the end of the day, this is just a game and I'm glad you're playing! I'm not around as much as I'd like to be myself and my personal life has been hectic with relationships, work and family so I understand.

Just so I can understand for future books, like the ones I have in my inventory, the core rules say this much about book reading.Core Rules Book posted:To gain skill point from reading, 5 hours must be devoted to studying the book. A roll against the character’s intelligence must then be made. If successful, character adds 1d6 skill points for the relevant sill. I can understand Susan's notes being different, since they affect multiple skills and would probably be more like a perk. So should I do rolls or flat increases for the books I have right now? Because lore wise I can kinda see where you'd be going with the D.C. journal being flat.

To be honest, I've just been going with the flow as of late given that much of what we've agreed on or supplemented has fit the bill, but this does bring up a good point. I think for simplicities sake, I'll keep flat amount increases after studying for a few hours or so. Magazines temporary, Books and special items like those notes, permanent.

I think I'll wait on some sort of map before acting. Makes it easier to read and cuts down on the describing you have to do. But something I have been thinking, but not saying since it hasn't been relevant recently. Sahen's strength is 9 and his carry weight 250. Therax's even more so, and most player characters aren't any sort of slouches when it comes to hustling heavy equipment around like it isn't even there. I'm wondering if there's anything to be said about picking up more, well, living things. Just by the weight rules alone I could stuff most people into my bag and walk off none the worse. And there's no weight stats for the critters, but I can't imagine what we've faced so far would weight too much. I think what I'm trying to ask is could I, were I in an adjacent tile, just make a strength check or other contest to grab a hostile critter? Maybe even swing it around a bit? Could be fun.

Yep, I'm all for this. Make an action point bid and you can engage in a strength contest against an opponent. I'll get those maps up tomorrow. I'm checked out for the night.

I have a few questions, now that we're in Neo Nashville: - How long has Jackie been gone? She presumably had a small apartment; is it reasonable to expect the rent is still current on it? How is it furnished? - Jackie presumably has a few friends in the city: a drinking buddy or two, someone who sold her a few guns, a favorite watering hole. I can make the list, or Dr. Idle can, but I'd like to get a few ideas pinned down when trying to plot out some revenge. - Jackie was working as a dealer for a long time, and shortly as an enforcer for the (presumably) pseudo-organized-crime gambling district. Does she have any enemies she should be looking out for? - How well does Jackie know Neo Nashville, and, more importantly, how well does it know her? Will she get immediately recognized walking back into her old casino (or the one she was dragged out of), or will it be possible to case the joint and look around without it being a problem?

Excellent questions which I'll give answers too when I get home. Also if you all want to ever discuss, I've gotten over my IRC awkwardness and am hanging out in #fallout #tremulus and #gooncom most the day via a phone app. But yeah, I'll give a detailed response shortly.

QuantumNinja posted:I have a few questions, now that we're in Neo Nashville: In all actuality, it's probably been a little over two weeks. I'll work on a city map later tonight, but you do have an apartment both furnished and current on rent. pre:Jackie's Apartment You live in the ruins of a building called The Stahlman over on Union street. Just off of the riverfront. It's a 12-story building that has been turned into apart -ments over the years. The top 5 floors are caved in or too far ruined to safely live in. You live on the 3rd floor in a 1 Bedroom Apartment. You have a bathroom with running "dirty" water. In the main living area which also connects to a kitchen. You have a dented desk, a torn up couch, a functional radio and an armoire with a few articles of clothing. There is a steel desk chair that could be used to sit at the desk. You have a heating plate in the kitchen and various dried meats, canned foods and cured goods stored away in a pantry. All things aside, you've spruced up the pl -ace pretty good. That was, until you were almost made a slave.

QuantumNinja posted:- Jackie was working as a dealer for a long time, and shortly as an enforcer for the (presumably) pseudo-organized-crime gambling district. Does she have any enemies she should be looking out for? It's only been two weeks, but dealers are plenty and more often than not succumbing to their own supply. If anything, you may have stepped on a rival family member's toes, or somehow managed to piss off the higher-ups at silver slipper. Maybe your past was catching up with you with bad blood from a deal gone sour? QuantumNinja posted:- How well does Jackie know Neo Nashville, and, more importantly, how well does it know her? Will she get immediately recognized walking back into her old casino (or the one she was dragged out of), or will it be possible to case the joint and look around without it being a problem? Most people will go on by you without a second glance, close associates and most of the Casino staff will recognize you. Stay towards the riverfront and west side of town and you should be fine, more or less. Go looking for trouble, and you'll find it.

Dr.Idle posted:
I'm having trouble reconciling these details with the story in Jackie's Bio---should I read the Silver Slipper in place of the Antioch Casino? And if so, she was thrown out for getting into a fight after a patron tried to get sweet on her: QuantumNinja posted:It was less than a week before one of the regular customers started to get a little too familiar with her and she realized she had actually been hired as eye candy. When she resisted, she was beaten unconscious---repeatedly. She woke up in a slaver's den in VaultTown and was shortly sold into the service of a wealthy trader from Bedford who seemed to have a sinister use for her. I'll try to be on IRC most of the evening if you wanna talk about it.

Pretty much everyone keeps to themselves and no one gets hurt. There is no policing authority. Businesses and establishments usually have their own protection. E.G., Casino enforcers and what not or a guard for a shopkeep. A morally righteous person may stop you if they see you doing something bad, but more than likely they'll just get away from you, especially if you're taking violent actions. Wreak enough havoc and the populous will turn on you though. You can accumulate negative or positive rep here. Different groups will respond differently to you depending on who you affiliate yourself with. I'll have some more town details up today.

More About Neo-Nashvillequote:Neo-Nashville There are various gangs and small bands throughout the town and all other manner of filth you could imagine. In the wealthier areas, family muscle gets paid to do security, but that's not always guaranteed. There aren't many children here. Those who do live here usually are homeless.

Wait, what kind of dealer was Jackie, anyway? A drug dealer? Because I thought she was a casino card dealer. Can I just say how happy I am that this game is running at such a steady pace? I've been in three or four other games that died almost immediately after they started, so thank you to all of you for regularly posting in this game. I'm having a blast! Also, on the off chance you guys didn't figure it out on your own, Pecker's place is called Park Rage because of the half-burned out neon sign on its side that reads: PARKing gaRAGE

Point of interest, I was going for knocking out the guy in the room as per the special attack rules:quote:If an attacker is making a non-bladed melee or unarmed attack, they can declare a strike to stun. In this case, the attack is made at minus 30. Success indicates the opponent has been rendered unconscious for 15-EN rounds and minimum damage was dealt. If critical is made during the attack, damage is dealt normally according to the critical table. I really should have specified, though, so I'll just deal with my own mistakes.

If none of them are game I'm still reading & will roll up something. Problem is I've never played anything like this & I'm having a heck of a time coming up with a character type that isn't either already very well represented or ridiculously min-maxing/gimmicky.
