Hello everyone!!

Time to begin mustering!! Note that we're still a week and a half away from starting so if you want to change which character you bring to the table, that's perfectly okay!!

Please take the following actions prior to game start:

I'm new to starfinder so I'll play the Soldier. I'd like to give xp to my brand new starfinder PC if I can.

PC Rattus Solo
PFS #2072-701
Faction: not sure
day job none

I'd like the chronicle dropped to 720 credit for a new character! please :)

Yup, applying the chronicle to a new level 1 character is no problem!

However, please fill out your character information on slides #2 and #3 here: Maps & Slides

Bigboom, Twich is in a game that will be finishing at the last possible moment, and is going to level up a bunch then since she has a stack of GM chronicles waiting. Do you want me to fill out what I can now, and then the rest, or do you want me to wait, or do you want my best guesses at everything now and I can fix things later if needed?

No need to fill it out right now. You can wait till you've got her levels all sorted out then fill in the details at that time. Thanks!!

Day job: Computer programer Day Job: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22

Buckshot Bob, just a friendly reminder to fill out your SFS Character's details in slide #2. That is where I'll pull all the information to fill out everyone's chronicle sheets at the end of the scenario.

Also, as you'll be playing a pregen, you'd have to use that pregen's skills for downtime activities, such as a dayjob roll. I don't believe Iseph has a dayjob skill but do correct me if I'm wrong!

I'm not sure if my character is going to be free quite in time, Bigboom. I'll let you know. :(

Understood. You'll probably have a day or two cushion as I think it's okay for you to join late...so long as you join in before the first encounter.

Anyways, we'll see how it goes. Fingers crossed!

Darn that was a good roll

FYI I will be travelling on the 13th, but should still be able to check in at least once that day. Full posting to resume on the 14th.

No problem and thanks for the head's up!

Just a FYI to everyone....

I've PM'd Bakoyo, requesting that he check in. I haven't heard anything back yet but hopefully he/she will respond before the start date.

If we don't hear from Bakoyo and Twich is unable to join us, then we'll be down to 3 players, at which point I can play a pregen to fill in the 4th player slot needed for a legal table. If this occurs, I'll defer to you guys, the players, to decide which pregen I'll play.

But we'll see how the table forms up over the next 4-5 days and see how it goes!

Things are looking good, but not yet certain, for Twich. If she's not able to come, I plan to still join you guys with a pregen.

Hey there, it sounds like you might have room for another player? If so, I'd be interested in playing :)

I do have a variety of level 3-4s to choose from depending on what the group needs are.

We certainly do! Welcome aboard Wolfspirit!

In group, we currently have a mechanic, the soldier pregen, and an operative pregen. Redelia will bring a technomancer if her character finishes her current game in time. If not, she'll look to bring a pregen.

When you've decided on the character you're bringing, please fill in the character details on slide 2 and 3. Thanks!

Well, I have a Envoy I think should be in-tier, or I have a Solarian. Either should work, or I can see what I can wrangle up.

I'm leveling up to 3 this weekend, so will update all my character information on Sunday or Monday to reflect that.

Awesome! Good to hear from you Bakoyo!

Looks like we've got a full table!
1. Chivix - mechanic
2. Obozaya - soldier pregen
3. Iseph - operative pregen
4. Bakoyo - solarian
5. Twich - technomancer (or possibly a pregen if Twich doesn't finish her current game in time)
6. Wolfspirit to bring either an envoy or solarian

Twich should be fine. Her current game just ended, although I won't have chronicles for a day or so. She will be free and fine to participate on Monday, though I may not have her profile updated then.

Glad that Twich will make it!

I know that Twich and Bakoyo may need a bit more time to fully update their character sheets. And Wolfspirit has not checked in yet but that's okay.

I'll get the mission briefing started while the three of you continue to get your details sorted.

Twich's level up is complete on paper. I'll get the profile updated sometime in the next few hours.

I think I'm going to bow out I've got too much on my plate now.

Understood. Thanks for letting me know!

I'm still here and interested. I can lock in with my Envoy or wait to see if we have others that want to play. Either way, I'm excited :)

Can we slot promo boons for t-shirts etc. in a PbP game?

Yep, the rules for PbP are the same as for in person. In PbP, you inform the GM of what item you have, and be prepared to send them a picture of your item or a receipt for its purchase if they ask for it (everyone understands that you might not have kept the receipt).

Wolfspirit, I don't believe we'll have anyone else joining us so go ahead and bring in your character!

Bakoyo, Twich has got it right. Promotional boons can be slotted for PBP, no problem!

Twich's profile is up to date. It might be a little rough in a few places, since PCGen doesn't support her archetype.

No problem! And I feel your pain!

Although I think there are some data files available on the internet somewhere that now provides Pact Worlds details. I saw it but haven't used it yet, personally. Let me know if you can't find it.. I'll dig up the link!

Oooh, I managed to get alpha packages working for Ultimate Wilderness to build my vine leshy leshy warden, so maybe I've already done most of the work to get Pact Worlds working...

Okay, back from my trip now. Sorry for the delays. No internet at the in-laws, and spotty cell service. But, back to regular posting now!

I can provide any updates on PCGEN data files, as I am one of the data monkeys. Pact worlds is complete, and Armory is almost done.

Can you walk me through how to get pact worlds included in my installation? I'm running 6.07.08. I believe I dropped an extra data file for Pathfinder stuff somewhere a few weeks ago to get Ultimate Wilderness included, but I can't remember what I did.

easiest way is to go to https://github.com/PCGen/pcgen-newsources and download the zip file for the repository. Extract the zip file, then go to the ..\pcgen-newsources-master\starfinder\paizo directory and copy the Pact Worlds folder. Then go to your PCGEN install location and paste the Pact Worlds data into the ..\pcgen 6.07.08\data\starfinder\paizo folder.

EDIT: You can find me (and the other PCGEN people) on Hipchat if you have any questions.

Thank you.

I notice that download also has PF2; how complete is that? Should it be relatively usable, if I double check the results by hand?

Chivix, you're one of the folks who put together data for PCGEN?? Well, on behalf of tons and tons of people out there, I say 'THANK YOU!!' I'm a fan!!

As far as I know it is "almost" complete. I think character creation is done, but not spells.

Never mind, only 1 class is done for testing purposes.

I'm a very minor contributor. I've only done a few sourcebooks so far. Still, the team works hard for no pay, so the thanks are greatly appreciated. I'll happily pass them along.

You are still contributing, so the rest of us can have a great time. Thank you, and on a side note Thank you to everyone who has GMed before.

Good news everyone!!

I've received the con's player boon details! Like with day jobs, I like to get these rolls done at the beginning so that I don't forget when the scenario ends.

Everyone (including GMs) roll a d20. If you roll either a 19 or 20, then you win a boon! To determine which boon you win, roll a d2.

Boon roll: 1d20 ⇒ 20
Wow, that was unexpected!

Which boon?: 1d2 ⇒ 2
I've won the Emergency Resupply starship boon!

Now it's your turn everyone. Go ahead and roll for your boons! Good luck!!

1d20 ⇒ 10

boon: 1d20 ⇒ 3

Chivix is sad to say that he and Gravy won no boons.

Boon Roll:: 1d20 ⇒ 10

boon: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (9) + 10 = 19

Look I got a 19 wink,wink
