One of the fun challenges to RPGs comes with occasional bad luck (in the form of rolls that result in extra bad circumstances) that force a PC and/or the team to deal with it.
Assuming we have down time to make repairs, the GG rig should be back up and running for future mayhem.
It was 2 hits with lots of D12 aces on damage...
Serious GB repairs cost 250,000 cr and severe ones cost 500,000. This suit is not going to be operational again, guys.
I can just play Barbara as a standard infantry with a Wilk's laser rifle if that's what y'all want.
Repairs and reloads are free back at base. You guys aren't playing mercenaries. The Legion has your back. As soon as you make it back to base...
So the GG and driver are going to be in the body and fender shop for a bit.
it all works out, runs of bad luck, can be tied up with runs of good luck.
I normally have really crappy rolls, so getting at least average is good enough for me for the most part. :)
Is the use of +++ [words] +++ a way of indicating words coming over the comm link? If so, I'll start using them as well for clarity.
I use them to indicate radio or commlink.
Feeling a bit better from when I buggered up my back again. :(
Got to love doctor prescribed morphine, and bed rest for 3 days.
Give me a bit of time, and I will get caught up and posting again.
Glad to hear you are on the mend Terry!
Another late afternoon thunderstorm; another night without power. Still waiting for power to be restored. I will post after that. Sorry for the delay.
Well let go from. My job for "Sleeping" when it was a diabetic event
Lots of concern for thier employees.
Looking for a lawyer for wrongful dismissal due to medical conditions.
So will continue on phone and tablet, just if i am holding things up, bot me.
No worries. Get yourselves straightened out, we will still be here.
Just noticed someone with an ongoing SW Deadlands campaign is recruiting for some new players. Recruitment link as of July 23. Seems it might still be open.
We actually just filled that posting, sorry!
I'm in that game too, and I didn't see anything from Keeper (the GM) saying that he was only looking for one new player, or that he had a cap of 4 PCs max...
You never know! We were looking for one, but anything could happen!
They can help, I would say they can offset the penalties to vision by a small amount. The light refracting off the snow and amplified by the NVGs would make your vision seem blurry. Still better than nothing in the dark!
Sorry, i have not been on. I will be at work come the 15th of sept, and should be able to post more at that time.
FYI: I'll be beach bound this Sunday and returning Thursday. The place promises good wifi so I will be checking in. If i'm too slow, feel free to bot me.
No worries, Terry, I work at a school, so I usually post more from there too.
Bart, enjoy the beach, we will bot if needed.
I am back at a reasonable post.
My schedule is 4 days a work week, so I will be posting on those days.
Just had to make sure that my bringing of my laptop here was good.
Sorry, been gone for Jury selection.
I guess my quote of hang the guilty bastard wasn't what they were looking for in an impartial juror. :)
Actually, it was because I could not speak french that they turned me away.
Welcome back!
Savage Worlds Fans: There is a recruitment going on for a SW game, in case anyone is interested.
This is the first time a PC of mine has encountered a ley line. Other than some initial mental static, is there anything a psionics PC can do with the ley line if they're not a Ley Line Walker?
Announcement from Paizo: It looks like the plan is for Paizo.com to go down at 8 a.m. Pacific on Monday, November 3rd, and the site will likely remain down for a few days.

The Savage Rifts Sourcebooks has this about Ley Lines.
ARCANE EFFECTS
Ley Lines: When activated on a ley line, double the Range and Duration of psychic or magic powers. Attack powers (such as blast, bolt, burst, and damage field) deal +2 damage, and defensive powers (such as barrier, entangle, and protection) gain +1 Toughness. Magic users double the PPE regained while resting on a ley line.
Nexus Points: When activated at a nexus point, triple the Range and Duration of psychic or magic powers. Attack powers deal +4 damage, and defensive powers gain +2 points of Toughness. Magic users triple the PPE regained while resting in the area of
a nexus point. Ley line nexuses seethe with eldritch energy. Being within one mile of a nexus point—but not on it—has the effect of being on a ley line.
Dynamic Backlash: Psychics and magic users are subject to Dynamic Backlash in areas affected by ley line energy, see Setting
Rules in Savage Worlds.
Magic Rituals: The most powerful magics are designed to access the flow of arcane energies available at areas of ley line power—often multiplied at times of cosmic significance—harnessing them for greater mystical effects as listed below.
We know there is a ley line present. Sounds like it could even be a Nexus point.
Maybe Ounce's divination can shed some info on the situation.
Thanks for posting that. Basically everything is souped up, for you and for the bad guys. There is no nexus here, but the one a few hundred miles from here is too far away to affect the area.
FYI: I'll be at a face to face gaming con this weekend. Will have internet so should still be checking in between games.
Thanks for the update Bart. Have fun!
