It's decided then. Team 1 will be "Halcyonic Knights Errant" and Team 2 will be "Halcyonic Knights". :p

Yeah, let's be the Halcyon Crusaders then. I'm voting for that.

For establishing initial Team for the Knights.

● If the leader has Influence over every teammate, add another team.
Nope

● If everyone has the same purpose in the fight, add another team.
Think that's a Yes? Fairly sure we're on the same page (beat the badguys and stop them from doing too much damage while showing off a tad) here, if anyone isn't speak up now.

● If any team member mistrusts the leader or the team, remove a team.
Unless All American Girl is going to allege a mind control voting conspiracy, think this is a No.

● If your team is ill-prepared or offbalance, remove a team.
Don't think we trigger this either, but that's up to everyone to agree on obviously. Red Fox was definitely ready at the least :smug: Until I rolled a loving two anyways.

So yeah, think we have 3 team total.

Well, Showstopper was a little conflicted at the start, but he's on board with plan "Beat these ungrateful jerks senseless" now that they started it.

Jolinaxas, that's an Unleash. Also, to confirm this here since not everyone goes to the IRC - you cannot roll to Defend someone who is already Taking a Powerful Blow. You can Defend pre-emptively, for instance if they botch a Directly Engage or something, but once I've said '[x] takes a powerful blow', you cannot Defend that.

Don't forget, you have Softer moves too, so you can say someone's in the line to end up with something happening or forewarn that if someone doesn't do something they're going to get hurt, ect, too!

I think it was premptively to defend All American Girl from hitting the ground.

Pretty much. Defend isn't just for powerful blows, hence why I assumed that I could use Defend, but made provisions in case it ended up being Unleash.

Since it is Unleash and needs the boost, is there a reason you have to make it a selfish one? Lexi's prompt was to help AAG, so her spending a Team to help Synapse seems kind of like it'd make more sense than him doing it solo.

(Sorry about the delay on my posting, got the inlaws over for the weekend. Will get something up asap.)

Sure thing - I just didn't want to assume you'd do so, for obvious reasons.

Also, would like a clarification on what Defend can and can't do, since it seems like its available use here is weaker than what's printed.

Hey everyone - as you might have noticed, prompts are coming in really slowly, recently. I recently got a summer job in landscaping, and aside from taking up a lot of my days, it leaves me exhausted even on days off - that's why I've been a lot slower with prompting.

I'd hate to be wasting anyone's time+enthusiasm, though, so I'm letting everyone know that as I see it there are two options.

1: Slow, infrequent prompting from me until the end of August.

2: I put one or both games on hiatus until the end of August, and we continue or restart then.

So I put it to the players of each game to decide - let me know which option you prefer, and we can work from there. Cheers!

I'm not in any real rush, so whenever you get to in works for me. But, I know landscaping is super draining, so don't feel bad if you think it's a better idea to go on hiatus.

perfectly fine with 1!

It actually overlaps with my own seminar stuff which leaves me pretty drained too. Not as much as landscaping, but goddamn listening to a person drone on for 8 hours is tiring.

Probably would prefer hiatus to slow if its going to be *real* slow, like weeks+ between prompts. But totally willing to go either way.

I'm good with whatever you decide though, landscaping is pretty horrible and I can understand why you're tired.

So it's been a while since I posted here, but I'm just popping in to say this game is on Hiatus. I just can't run games while I have this landscaping job. I either have no time or no energy. I will probably have both in late August/Early September - if that's too long a wait for you and you want to drop out, I totally understand. Sorry about this.

Well, that's a shame, but I'm content to wait. Gotta see what those dragon jerks have to say for themselves.

Looking forward to it starting back up when you get the time again.

So this game isn't back yet, but since the playtest versions of a bunch of new playbooks got released for backers, I thought I might as well ask - when I am free of work, would people like me to just go back to recruitment so they can get a chance to make new characters, whether that's with the new playbooks or the original 10? Or do we just want to pick up right where we left off? I'm open to either, but thought I might as well raise the question for you folks~

Remaking Showstopper as a Star has some appeal, but I don't want to restart the whole thing.

I've contemplated just making Red Fox into a Bull since she basically is one already, but it's not one of the new books - and all things considered I'd just like to keep the game going.
