SFS #1-15 Save the Renkrodas (subtier 3-4) (Inactive)

Game Master Ilmakis

I’m flying off to London soon. Will likely be only able to check the forums about 18hrs later.

I'll be in meetings all day today, so won't be able to post at all. Please bot me as necessary.

Just a heads up.

My computer hdd I think went out. Which means I need to get my backup
computer up and running. It might be working by tomorrow early. But I can usually post at work, and I can also attempt to post via phone and/or tablet.

Just means that until I get a home computer up and running any posting there will be a bit briefer.

Also a tier-2 computer with five miniturisation upgrades (375cr)

Culture and life science library chips (500cr more total)

@Gunnz, out of curiosity, what is the benefit of buying a tier-2 computer? Is it just a personal thing for your character, or is there some mechanical benefit I'm not aware of?

Thanks for the info!

The tier-2 was... hmm.. I think it was to put the library chips into. The size was just so she wouldn't have to have anything clunky with her, which is totally not her style.

Not 100% sure I can remember now. Seemed like a good idea at the time, which is really how Gunnz works. She is a jack-of-all trades and master of quite a few, so the library skill chips help out a bit.

Well...a computer is back and running. It needs a lot of work. It was the hdd (it was having problems with bad secotrs...in the booting section of Windows. Go figure). The 'new' computer is working, though I need to install a bunch of stuff, which I am doing ATM. So, not in the right head space to post

So I can start posting as of tomorrow.

Okay so I may regret asking this, but how tall is Vossi? Chikasa has jump jets on his armor, so if he could grab the controller device from Verne, he could potentially rocket up onto Vossi's back...

Thoughts?

Vossi is huge, so I will say 15ft. high.

I think I was clear in my description about the device. There is already a device installed on Vossi; just at the top of his neck, before his head.

What you have is a similar device.
To control Vossi, you can jump on his back and tries to use the device to control him or find a solution to get it out of Vossi.

Okay, so I wouldn't necessarily need to get the maguffin from Verne first. Cool!

Uh oh! No time for a rest after a dino-fight?! Not great for little old Chikasa. I do have a healing serum, but I imagine Poppilo would be able to do a bit better on healing me up if he has the spell slots to spare.

Reynold can also Inspiring Boost you for 18 Stamina.

Sneak into the gala....with a dinosaur. Does anybody else think this is a recipe for disaster? Maybe if somebody can throw up an illusion on Vossi?

You can let Vossi out if you want ;-)

Re: Reynold using Inspiring Boost on Chikasa

I'm not sure that this would work since we're out of combat entirely. It does say that it works on an ally who has taken damage "at any point after your last turn ended." If that fits within the timeline of the combat, and our GM would allow it to work outside of Initiative, then I would be glad to get my SP back. I just had questions about whether it would actually work.

Technically it would work. But I will allow it for your Ride the Dragon action !

Anyway, I will fly to PaizoCon today. My posting rate will decrease a lot until monday evening (I GM 5 time there).

If there is some of you there, I will be happy to meet :)

Excellent! I'll fix up Chikasa'a SP, and will be ready to roll into combat once we're all set. Thanks for the ruling, Ilmakis!

Also, enjoy your time at Paizocon!!! I can't tell you how jealous I am, but I definitely hope you have a good time. :D

What are you running at PaizoCon? I'm not going to be there but I've got 2 friends flying out there now.

Have fun! I've been a few times before, it's perhaps my favorite convention.

If we could get sometime to interact before triggering combat, can we try to go for that? Even though Poppilo is low on spell slots, he can still use his RP to charm person. In combat though, that won't work very well.

@Poppilo technically, depending on how you get to the gala you can have a surprise round. If your group manage to get it I will give you the opportunity to do that.

My intention is to hopefully use disguise and/or bluff to convince the enemies that Chikasa and I are in fact the soldiers who ran off with Vossi earlier. If I'm lucky, I can pull off enough of a distraction to get everyone else in position for any charming, hacking, scouting, etc. Don't expect more than a few rounds though... If I'm lucky enough to pull this off I'm sure the charade won't last long.

I do like the idea of those of us not on Vossi trying to sneak closer. Either with stealth or a disguise. Gunnz, in spite of her nature, is pretty sneaky when she wants to me "game face on boys".

Good call. Team Dino and Team Sneakyface will perform the best of pincer maneuvers.

Ok

For those on Vossi, they can make me a Bluff or Disguise check.
The one not on Vossi can make me a stealth check.

Where should I be? I have solid Bluff and Disguise, but decent Stealth as well.

I'll be travelling from Mon to Thu. Should still be able to put up a post a day but timing might be off from usual. Please bot if necessary.

PaizoCon is over :)

Tired, but happy, I will try to move the game on the usual path as quickly as possible ^^

Thank you for the game guys :)

I hope you have enjoyed the scenario !

Your chronicle sheet are here and the game have been reported.

If you have any feedback don't hesitate to send me a PM, I'm always trying to improve my GM skills ;-)

Hi, sorry but I don't see Poppilo's sheet there.

It looks like my sheet has the wrong Org Play #. The correct information is below:

Org Play #: 177216-702

Everything else on the sheet looks good. Thanks GM Ilmakis!

I don't know why it wasn't there... I've redone one, it must be good now :)

@Chikasa sheet redone :)

Beautiful! Got it, GM.

Thanks again!

Thanks. Are you okay with me adding my purchases to the chronicle?

Elite stationware 4100
Formalwear 5
Partywear (cocktail) 5
Partywear (safari chic) 5
Professional clothes (dancer) 5
Tier-2 computer, 5x miniturisation 375
Library chips (culture and life science) 500
Second Skin 250

No problem.
I can do it if you prefer.

Chronicle looks good, thanks for running!

Thanks for running! Fun adventure, great GM, great party!

Chronicle looks good, and *DING*

Buff-Bot is now level 5! I can finally play 5-8s!

Nice! Chikasa just hit level 4. I was hoping I would also finally be able to afford my advanced Diasporan sniper rifle, but alas, I'm like 200 credits short!!! :_(

Got it! Thanks for the game!

One off dinging here too. And three low tier spaceship/vehicle scenarios that Gunnz has yet to play in. Oh no!

Yeah, one more game and Kitkul hits 4. Once it gets to 5 I think things will go better for Kitkul. Solarians really needed to be 6 skill points a level, most builds effectively being triple stats needed (STR, CON and CHA for melee, Dex and CHA (and possibly CON too) for a ranged solarian). INT is effectively their dump stat. Once level 5 hits, Kitkul can have a few more skills!

Thanks everybody. I had lots of fun.

Contrary to Pathfinder i don’t think CON is that important even for a combatant type.
I prefer to have INT rather than CON.

Reynold now dings to 7
