Here's the Discussion thread. Go ahead and ask any questions here, and hopefully we can get started soon.
dot. Thanks for the pointing out what was wrong. I'll fix it now.
Edit:by the way, is there rules for dual wielding weapons? The best I could find was:
Hand guns can be used to fire at two targets,
or twice at one target. If firing at two separate
targets each attack is at -2 to hit. If firing two sh
ots at one target there is no modifier. Each attack
is resolved separately. Shotguns can fire twice at
one target (no modifier to hit, small effect), fire
at two different targets (modifier -2 to hit, sm
all effect), or fire both barrels at once (+1
modifier to hit, big effect at SHORT range ONLY
). In all but the last case the two shots are
resolved separately. The doubled Effect of firing
two barrels simultaneously is felt at short range
ONLY!
Should I use that?
ok

Not really any benefit for TWF. Some weapons give multiple attacks per round (mostly unarmed attacks, guns, and if you have Martial Artist), but it has nothing to do with how many you're wielding.
Evelyn (Evie) Cardue is a young upperclass woman from Southern England. She has, for some time been gaining a reputation on the continent and in Britain as a talented and imaginative post-impressionist artist. More recently, her work has begun to be shown in America, where her clever use of blocks of vivid colours in grand abstract landscapes has caused a stir amongst collectors.
Dotting....Harry could be connected with any character who was educated in England (at an upper-class boarding school..like Eton), or who is active in science/mechanization.
Hi,
I changed out the medium part for actor but I made it so, he knows there is something but he cannot control it. So if the story permits and Medium gets unlocked he would be "best" able to do it.
Posted as Gil. Still working on background, but unsure if I have the skills part done correctly. I have 25 points total to spend on stats/skills? If so I think I add up to 23?
It looks like you've only spent 3 points on skills, for a total of 20. Go ahead and fill out your background and spend the rest of your build points, and we'll get started.
Check it over and let me know what you think.
He looks pretty good.
I'll kick off the gameplay here in a minute.
How would everyone feel about rearranging the dice mechanic to be simply 2d6+Skill vs. a target DC? It would be mathematically equivalent, but more intuitive (with higher numbers better) and eliminate the use of the table.
sounds good to me..anything that makes it easier and simpler!! Also for equipment, do you just want what we have on us at the dinner party? I think I could sneak in a dagger or sword as part of my "Ethnic" dress..
As I mentioned in the description, part of the festivities was a planned hunting trip. Since you're away from the city and weren't suspicious of anything before, you probably wouldn't have any sidearms on your immediate person, but they could easily be in your room upstairs. If you didn't bring a rifle or shotgun yourself, there would have been one provided for you if you want to retrieve it.
sorry...missed that...thanks!

David, some notes on writing style (minor, feel free to disregard):
These thought tumble around in his mind as he goes downstairs to the basement with everyone else. His thoughts are interrupted like a Mack truck careening off the road into a hot dog stand.
A Mack truck presumably does not exist in this setting. Although it is not something your character said, it still might be more period-appropriate to say "a motorcar".
What the hell! What is that f!**ing thing anyways?
While this language was in use at the time, often written discourse used creative sidestepping as opposed to letter censorship, so you might say "swore" or even "spoke an oath". But of course whether we're imagining this as a written novel or a more literal happening would impact the relevance of that.
Just some ideas. No objection to your post at all.
Quick question:
In the real world radio wasn't around in the 190Xs. How long has it been around in this world? How familiar would normal people be with it and other wireless devices? By "wireless" do you mean like radio, or more like wi-fi?
- Cheers.
By "wireless" I mean wireless telegraphy. You're right that voice transmission is still in the future, but I'm referring to simple Morse code transmissions.

Going to be away after surgery. Please DMPC me for the time being. Hope to be back on the boards soon.
Sure thing. Hope it all goes well!

I'm actually not too sure on the ice issue. But a photographer seems better that a soggy trunk with a rotting lizard.

So,... I'm not really sure where we can head to from here. Do we have any leads?
In waiting for Van Winkle to get us in to see *someone*.

Are Harry and Evelyn still with us?
Still here...just have not seen a point to insert anything useful into the game play at the moment. Harry is just waiting to get to see someone in power. Failing that he will suggest going to the British Consulate and trying to speak to people there.
Yep, just a bit busy at work,... will post ASAP
Hey everybody, sorry I've been AWOL for a while. I've been slammed with extra work stuff for the last few weeks, and it's not going to get better soon. Also, Harry PM'd me to say he'd have to drop out. So I'm going to go ahead and call this the end of the game. Thanks for taking a chance on it!
Its too bad, I liked it. I wish you all well.
Indeed!
Thanks for being active George.
