Male Human Survivor

Not to argue, as you are the GM, and the final arbitrator of rules... but I believe you might be misinterpreting the "Innocent Bystander" rule.

Innocent Bystander:

Spoiler:

Innocent Bystanders
When an attacker misses a Shooting or Throwing roll, it
may sometimes be important to see if any other targets in the
line of fire were hit. The GM should only use this rule when
it’s dramatically appropriate—not for every missed shot in a
hail of gunfire.
Each miss that comes up a 1 on the Shooting die indicates
a random adjacent character was hit. If the attacker was firing
on full-auto or with a shotgun, a roll of 1 or 2 hits the bystander.
Roll damage normally.

Technically the Wild Die is considered part of the roll, so if it offsets the miss, then the rule doesn't apply. This is only if you roll a "1" and the target is missed as a result of the entire roll.

I might be wrong here, but this is how we've always played it.

No, I'm glad for the head's up! Anyone who lost their bennys as a result can get them back. Good catch guys. I didn't have the rules with me at work and was playing by memory. I'm glad to have your help.


Male Something similar to human, but one can never be sure without a DNA test Multiclass Slacker/Gamer...I'm trying to get into Eldrich Napper

On another note, I'm feeling confident I can handle another player or two of late. I'll put it up to a vote...do you want me to message some of the runners up, or reopen recruitment, or are you guys fine as it is?

Since our post rate has remained, so far, very fast. I'd be hesitant to add more players.


Male Human | 3/3 Bennies | Parry 6, Toughness 9 (2) | Wounds 0 | Pace 5, Charisma 0

Yeah, as much as it'd be cool to bring in a couple new folks, I think it would have an impact on the game in a few ways. Firstly, I agree that we've been keeping up a great post rate, and the more people we bring in the more likely it is for that to, well, plummet. Additionally, I like the theme we have here of Vault Dwellers exploring the Wasteland and learning more about it, not sure of what's going on, and I think we'd lose that if someone new came in (cause I'm not sure how we could explain they're also fresh out of the Vault without it being contrived).


Male Something similar to human, but one can never be sure without a DNA test Multiclass Slacker/Gamer...I'm trying to get into Eldrich Napper

Both valid points.

Unless the other two disagree and present equally valid points then, what say I wait until either a player character dies or a player drops out to post for replacements and/or fillers, given at either of those incidents we would not have fresh vaulties around, anyway, as replacements for PCs who die will probably be wastelanders, anyway.


Male Something similar to human, but one can never be sure without a DNA test Multiclass Slacker/Gamer...I'm trying to get into Eldrich Napper

And I've been very pleased with the posting rate, guys :-) I'm really getting a feel for each character's personality as well. This has been a fun game so far.


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

I agree with the others.


Male Something similar to human, but one can never be sure without a DNA test Multiclass Slacker/Gamer...I'm trying to get into Eldrich Napper

This NPC inspired by the fact that Lily got dipped and mutated in her 80s and was still in peak physical condition despite her age after, so it only stands to reason that on the other end of the spectrum...


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

Gotcher. Sort of makes sense (Super Mutants obviously grow over time, but whether or not a child would start at full size is unclear).


Male Human Commoner 2/ Philosopher 2/ Gamer 5/ Writer 5

Copying the loot list over here so we can go over it...

2 Caravan Shotguns with 50 (because I'm tired of rolling today) bean bag rounds for 20 gauge.
2 Dart Guns with 5 cazador poisoned darts left, and 15 regular darts
2 Baseball Bats
6 Leather Armor
6 Pre War caps of various styles
5 Flash Bangs
3 Backpacks with 20 bottles of purifiers water between them
100ft rope
A Geiger counter (its how you know the water is clean)
1 Metal Armor
1 Metal Helmet
1 Laser Rifle with 40 MFC
1 Cattle Prod

I already said in Gameplay that I'd take one of the suits of leather armor, but I'd also like one of the shotguns, especially since my varmint rifle is jammed at the moment. (Not sure when the reset for attempting to fix that would be, or if it's instant and I can just roll until I get it?) I think dividing the backpacks and bottles among us would be a good idea, too.

Would you guys think it's a good idea to set up a spreadsheet for loot gained in this game? I've seen it used in other games and it can be helpful for tracking what we've found and who has it.


I've never liked full spreadsheets, but a simple list is very helpful. I do one for the games I run.

For example.

Also, Fitz can probably help you un-jam your gun if you inform him it's beyond your abilities. =)


Male Something similar to human, but one can never be sure without a DNA test Multiclass Slacker/Gamer...I'm trying to get into Eldrich Napper

The jam was only a roll in combat. You're fine after.

Bennies 3 | Seasoned XP 34 | 445 caps | Effects: None

If no one minds, I'd like the following:

• leather armor
• caravan shotgun with 12 beanbag rounds
• 1 flash bang

I also wouldn't mind carrying the rope. But if someone else would rather
do it I've got no objection. I kinda took Brawy specifically so I could haul more stuff.


Male Human Survivor

I'm good with the group we have right now.

Spaulding would like the metal helmet to keep his good looks intact, one of the dart guns, and he doesn't mind carrying the Geiger counter.


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

Well, after my "Yeah I'm an idiot" moment, I wish to revise my "take".

-Caravan Shotgun (Halve the ammo with Mickey)

-MAYBE the Metal Armor if nobody else wants it. I seem to be the one getting slammed the most, so that extra +1 (2 vs energy) could make a big difference.

-Flash Bangs (however many are left after whoever else want them, takes them)

-MAYBE the Laser Rifle. Can anyone else even shoot it and hope to hit? I'm thinking of increasing my Science skill next level. If not, I can hold onto it until we can get back to the BoS base and sell it.

Apologies if this looks a bit greedy.


Male Something similar to human, but one can never be sure without a DNA test Multiclass Slacker/Gamer...I'm trying to get into Eldrich Napper

Energy weapons does rifle, not science


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

Whoops. Could've sworn you said it was based on Science because you needed to calibrate the gun and all. My bad.


Male Something similar to human, but one can never be sure without a DNA test Multiclass Slacker/Gamer...I'm trying to get into Eldrich Napper

Nah, that's why it's interesting based, but it's another skill...because science already covers hacking, robot stuff, knowledge, and such. It's a pretty big catch all skill as it is. Like I said, you can switch the shooting you had for it, since you never shot an actual gun, if you want. Just make the sheet change for future reference.


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

I'll do that, thanks.


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

Will be a bit sporadic posting through MAYBE Monday. Moving out of this house today, and driving 16 hours to get to the new one on Saturday. May be able to get internet Saturday, maybe not.


Male Something similar to human, but one can never be sure without a DNA test Multiclass Slacker/Gamer...I'm trying to get into Eldrich Napper

Loud and clear


Well, watching TFS play FO4 has me itchin' to go with this. Happy Thanksgiving guys...anyone gonna be up and posting this weekend? Or is it an extended holiday for all?


Male Human | 3/3 Bennies | Parry 6, Toughness 9 (2) | Wounds 0 | Pace 5, Charisma 0

I'm still around and potentially good to update and move forward, although I'd like a little more clarity on who's taking what. Fitz had put forward interest in one of the shotguns, but now he might just want the laser rifle? If we get that mostly hashed out I'd be fine continuing. There's also, of course, the question of what we should do with Petey.


Yep, that is a conundrum. Moral quandary and all. I mean, the only town you've seen so far is KoS with Super Mutants. It's almost as if I placed I placed this little question there without an easy answer on purpose.


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

Laser rifle, not shotgun. Traded in Guns for Energy Weapons skill.

As for Petey...tough call. If there beven is anyone friendly to Super Mutants, we don't know them. Too bad it's East Coast mutants here.


Male Something similar to human, but one can never be sure without a DNA test Multiclass Slacker/Gamer...I'm trying to get into Eldrich Napper

Well, Petey said his mom was purple, which is indicative of west coast nightkin.

But yeah, the brotherhood hates mutants. A lot. If only you were going to, I don't know, another city. Like the three I've mentioned so far, Kingdom, Palatka, and The Dome.

:-)


Male Something similar to human, but one can never be sure without a DNA test Multiclass Slacker/Gamer...I'm trying to get into Eldrich Napper

Or you could just leave him. Spencer would should probably pitch a fit, being Heroic and all, but for the rest of you, it's not exactly your business what happens to a random mutant.

Decisions, decisions.


Male Something similar to human, but one can never be sure without a DNA test Multiclass Slacker/Gamer...I'm trying to get into Eldrich Napper

Alright guys, come on, the holiday was over yesterday :-(


Male Human | 3/3 Bennies | Parry 6, Toughness 9 (2) | Wounds 0 | Pace 5, Charisma 0

Sorry. I can't speak for everyone else, but I for one am still visiting family through today into tomorrow. I'm able to check in on occasion but haven't really been able to get a long post in this. Definitely should get things back in swing by Monday, though.


Male Something similar to human, but one can never be sure without a DNA test Multiclass Slacker/Gamer...I'm trying to get into Eldrich Napper

Yeah, fair enough.


Male Human Survivor

Me too. I'll post tonight when back home.


So, I'm thinking about allowing you guys to do interludes once per scene for an extra Benny, just to give some people something to do when we're waiting on others. This will let you flesh out your characters a bit more, and would of course be optional. I don't want to disrupt the story flow of the main game, but I don't think this discussion thread is the right place, either. Any ideas? My best thought is spoilers. Do you think this is a good idea?


Male Human | 3/3 Bennies | Parry 6, Toughness 9 (2) | Wounds 0 | Pace 5, Charisma 0

Hmm, that could be interesting, yeah. By interlude I'm guessing you mean an internal monologue type thing, or a throwback to past events from their backstory or whatever? Like a flashback sequence to something they're reminded of?

Whatever the case, I think spoilers would be the best way to do it. Like a brief introduction followed by the interlude hidden away, so people can check it out if they want. Something like this:

Example Post wrote:
As the group walks down the forest trail, Bob hefts the sword at his side. In the quiet of their travels, his mind goes back to the day he first got the fine, old blade...
Interlude:
Some story about Bob's grandfather forging it out of river stones or something.


Male Something similar to human, but one can never be sure without a DNA test Multiclass Slacker/Gamer...I'm trying to get into Eldrich Napper

Yeah, something like that. The SW core book have rules for it, basically the topic is based on a card drawn, and you get some kind of background story prompting to flesh out your characters.


Male Human | 3/3 Bennies | Parry 6, Toughness 9 (2) | Wounds 0 | Pace 5, Charisma 0

Oh cool, I never noticed those. Would you want to give the card suit to us, or should we roll for it? And would you rather us write it like talking aloud in character, or is an internal monologue fine?

Here's the loot, and how I understand it got divided up. Please adjust the list if I'm wrong, or you want an extra thing.

Original Loot List

• 2 Caravan Shotguns with 50 (because I'm tired of rolling today) bean bag rounds for 20 gauge. Split between Mickey and Spencer
• 2 Dart Guns with 5 cazador poisoned darts left, and 15 regular darts
• 2 Baseball Bats
• 6 Leather Armors Mickey (x1)
• 6 Pre War caps of various styles
• 5 Flash Bangs Mickey (x1), Fitz (x4)
• 3 Backpacks with 20 bottles of purifiers water between them Mickey 4 water.
• 100ft rope Mickey
• A Geiger counter (its how you know the water is clean)
• 1 Metal Armor Fitz
• 1 Metal Helmet Fitz
• 1 Laser Rifle with 40 MFC Fitz
• 1 Cattle Prod

Okay, like I said, this is the list as I understand it. Please correct as necessary.


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

I think Spencer took the Geiger Counter.


Male Human | 3/3 Bennies | Parry 6, Toughness 9 (2) | Wounds 0 | Pace 5, Charisma 0

I don't recall definitively taking it, but it'd be good to have, so yeah, I'll have it. Would potentially come in handy when scavenging and scouting.


Male Human Monk 5 (Qinggong Master of Many Styles from the Sacred Mountain)/Fighter (Brawler) 3

Searched back, looks like it was Spaulding who said he wanted to carry it (I don't consider that a share of the loot myself, it's very much a group needed item, not personal).


Male Human Survivor

I believe Spaulding took the Geiger counter, and a dart gun with half the darts, or all of them if nobody else wants a dart guy. We can barter / trade what remains. Should we do it here where perhaps a lot is available, or wait till we get to Platka.

I agree the geiger counter and rope are group share items. But someone needs to carry them, so it's important to know who has what.


Male Something similar to human, but one can never be sure without a DNA test Multiclass Slacker/Gamer...I'm trying to get into Eldrich Napper

Ten monsters with multiple attacks each may have not been my best idea. That was a lot of work on a phone! (Luckily I'll be on computer with WiFi tomorrow.)


Male Human | 3/3 Bennies | Parry 6, Toughness 9 (2) | Wounds 0 | Pace 5, Charisma 0

Uhhh... Looks like something wonky happened with that post. I'm assuming we're using the first round of rolls, before it repeats itself?


Male Something similar to human, but one can never be sure without a DNA test Multiclass Slacker/Gamer...I'm trying to get into Eldrich Napper

Yeah, use the first set. The second doesn't match narrative.


Since I'm actually on my computer for once, why don't I give you guys a little something to look at? This is for those of you who, like me, enjoy planning builds in advance:

Novice Edges:

Adrenaline Rush (Vigor d8): Get a bonus to damage rolls with fighting weapons equal to the number of wounds you're suffering.

Complete with the item list, these new edges, and the hindrances I showed you before, you guys have now seen most of my conversions, for the players' side, at least....I have rules for Super Mutants, Ghouls, and of course a Bestiary, and radiation rules, but, the other races I'm still working to balance out correctly, and the rest is GM stuff, really.

Did anyone take Fitz's armored vault suit after he upgraded to metal armor?


Male Something similar to human, but one can never be sure without a DNA test Multiclass Slacker/Gamer...I'm trying to get into Eldrich Napper

I forgot to mention I have a house rule for aid another. It just succeeds if you have at least a d4, but you can't do it at all if you have no skill. Otherwise it's a pretty useless option, IMO.

Just FYI when you guys heal later.
