I'm in a similar situation to OSW, I've been on 12-hour shifts for the past couple of weeks and it's getting pretty harsh here. I'll try to squeeze in some time to get Rioghan done, but unfortunately I can't promise anything at this point. If I can't manage by the end of the week, I may have to drop, or hold off participation for a while, until work gets back to normal.
Okay I understand. It looks like the three of you still want to play but RL is hammering you hard. I am fine with waiting for your schedules to settle down. Just keep us informed.
Ryjin it looks like we could start and they could catch up but I think we should wait. What do you think?
Starting with two people only to have to catch up a third would probably throw off the rhythm. Starting with just me would feel silly. =)
Plus, if Orthos has to drop (and I really hope he doesn't), we'd need to see about re-recruiting, or figuring out if/how we'd run it with two people.
I appreciate the consideration and am sorry about the hold-up. I *think* I should be able to carve out some time on Saturday to work on this, if I get no opportunities beforehand.

Next two days might give me some time...
Alright, I've gotten most of the basic character mechanics down, just need to select feats and buy equipment, which I should get done by the end of the day. Still wishing I could reroll stats =P got kind of a bum roll on her. Oh well.
I seem to have missed the post that announced wealth so I'm presuming usual WBL for level-4 characters, but feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Equipment usually takes me the longest part of making a new character.
Work should be out of the "ohgodsomuchovertime" phase this next week, at the very least to the point of not having to be in at 6 AM every morning and working 12-hour shifts all week. That should allow me to keep a better sleep schedule, and be more attentive to the thread when game starts.
Yeah, we're at level 4 WBL.
Cool. I'll get that and feats done tonight and should be good to go.
I presume we're still allowed to have enhancement bonuses and such on our equipment, just flavored as mechanical or alchemical in nature. (Alternatively, I might just grab stuff from the Tech Guide, because why not?)
Yes.
The Tech Guide stuff is way too expensive to afford, sadly.

Yuup that is correct. Rynjin, you know what? I still have not made that chart. Well I think we will just use logic. I am focusing on the campaign more than the mechanics right now.
Orthos much closer to being done... ;)
What chart?
I was going to take the guns from both and come up with a price chart for simple guns to complex guns.
Ah, gotcha.
So how's it comin'?
I will be officially off overtime at the end of the day tonight. Just the last bits left to sketch together - some equipment and one feat.
My bachelor party is this weekend so I will be away until at least Sunday night.
Congratulations! Have fun!

Have fun and congratulations!
And don't take any pictures. And ESPECIALLY don't post those pictures to Facebook.
Thanks guys! I did have fun and the pictures were minimal. ;)
So how is OSW's character coming?
Hum.
Hmmmm....
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
I was looking to use theTech guide stuff reflavored to alchemical/steam/what have you. The I was saddened by the prices.
Where ya been?
As it looks.... we wait...
Okay we need to make a solid decision: Is this happening, or not?
As-is as fun as the concept is that doesn't stand for much if all it ever comes to is months-long hiatuses with a flurry of minor activity in between.
Generally the Recruitment/Character Creation phase of a campaign lasts like 1-2 weeks, not 7 and a half months.
I'd love to play with you guys but I'm kind of getting tired of checking the thread at this point.
I would say not. Sorry to say it but my time is getting limited and since there has been no headway since we last spoke with the others. I am just going to shelf the idea for now.
I know how you feel Ryjin.
All right. Sorry to hear it, but that's how it goes some time.
If you ever try to run another Steampunk game though, send me a PM?
