There is a slight chance I may run a home game this weekend, which might kick Flameclaw up to level 7 (depending on which scenario I run). Either way, I do have to update my profile.

Hello everyone!

So I did some math based on what people posted in the recruitment thread, and we might be able to play in the high subtier if people (mainly Gunnz) are interested. Since we'll have 7 players (and thank you for having me) and at least one level 8 (Quirk), playing normal subtier might be a little on the easier side. We could get to high subtier by having the following:

Rocket: 5
Flameclaw: 6 (maybe 7)
Sethran: 6
Vixi: 6 (in profile)
Gunnz: 7 (if you pick your technomancer)
Quirk: 8
Me: 8 (hypothetically)

Even if Flameclaw stays at 6, we'd have 5+6+6+6+7+8+8=46. And 46/7 would get us to ~6.57, which would mean we would play up into subtier 7-8. That would definitely be more challenging than playing down. Assuming Gunnz went with his/her/their level 5 and I used a level 5, we'd have an APL of about 5.85, which would be right in the middle of the lower subtier.

I'm totally up (pun!) for using my 8 (a morlamaw soldier/tank) and playing up, but I will withhold commiting on a character until we definitively decide on subtier.

Day Job Roll Pop Star: 1d20 + 22 ⇒ (17) + 22 = 39

I do have to finish applying my most recent chronicle but should certainly be able to take care of that over the coming week.

Would it be possible to open the Gameplay thread for dotting?

I am neutral when it comes to high/low tier in this adventure. Quirk, at 8th level, is my only character above 3rd level right now, so I'll be playing out of tier if we go low.

If we go low tier, I'll probably hold off on re-equipping this character (I'm sitting on over 20,000 credits) and use my old gear for one more adventure.

I'll enter Quirks details soon.

I agree that playing the low tier with 7 people and one of those being a lvl 8 will make for an easy run, but I'm also a bit hesitant to run this at high tier with half of the people being lvl 5-6.

I have never played a tier 5-8 Scenario before so I have no clue how deadly/dificult those get.

GM Gustavef and other fellow players: I think I can make this a win-win situation. GM Zoomba is getting ready to run another high level table, and Quirk would be a good fit there.

I think I will bow out, leaving this game at a solid 6 players, with only one out of tier at the moment.

A little sad, as I played a games day event with Gustavef and it was a great time, but I also played with Zoomba and it was equally good.

Quirk will see you all back on Absalom Station soon!

Just popping in. I do plan to start next week. but it may be Tuesday. I still have to put the slides together :) So it looks like we are looking at 6 players at 5-6.

We I get the slides up I will let you know.

Ok. Feel free to fill out [url=https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1gzBuhwFWDF92yKmDL3dIs4Sg8Zs5L5Fz6790FUSZmjA/edit#slide=id.g5b7f6227b1_0_117]Slide 2[/dice] And we should be able to start early next week.

OK things are almost ready. Go an Dot and Delete in the Game play and I should be able to post the intro later.

I added an intro situation if you want to reply to it.

There are no boons called out in the scenario? In that case I'll go with;

Arghh. These attack rolls are just so embarrassing.

I feel ya

Sorry, I only just registered Gunnz remark about stopping the other one. I shot at the already damaged one on default as opposed of shooting the other one at range.

I just realized I could have gotten to it on the first turn turn, because I've been using Stellar Rush wrong. It says that I can cover myself in flame and make a charge without penalty AS A STANDARD ACTION. So I can move and THEN charge. I didn't realize that aspect of the power.

Yes Stellar Rush is fantastic. I joke that with all the speed enhancements and fly, I am my own ranged weapons since I can close 180 feet and still attack in one round.

Thing may slow down a bit for the next few days. RL needs more attention so if I miss a day don't fret

Thanks for letting us know.

---------------------------

About the skill checks we need to make, according to the map it's 3 perception checks and then 1 computer check

I think the 3 perception checks will be
Apsel, Daken and Gunnz ?

And the Computer check will be Vixen? Rocket can try to aid if that's allowed?

Perception and Computers are not Rocket's strong points. Or Flameclaw's as far as I can tell.

Yeah, I get a +4 on Perception. Nothing to write home about.

**cough** Vixi - she's not some Tricksy Vixen ;-p

Other than that the plan sounds good!

uhm..it's a contraction of your name..you know the first 2 letters of your first name and the last 3 of your surname? used to ..save time?

..and has nothing to do with my inability to read/type and general being bad at names.." ;)

I mean, her in-universe #1 Single is titled "Not Just some Tricksy Vixen" - and it's not like Vixi Trixen was her birth name :-p

Flameclaw *is* a Tricksy Vixen.

I am going larping this weekend so will be out of communication. Will try Sunday nigt but likely will be back Monday ^^.

Sorry all, PC died and I'm needing to rebuild it or get a new one. And I'll be off on holiday from late next week until mid/late Jan. I may be able to hide laptop, but my posting will be infrequent at best.
Bot early and bot often.

Ah crap, sorry to hear that.

That sucks Gunnz!

Right I've got people over for Christmas so won't be back on till Friday - Have a Great Christmas all for those who celebrate it ^^

Reminder - I am off on holiday. My ability to post will be between extremely limited and non existent. Please bot me early.

No worries. I am running at a con this weekend. So won't push things along till monday

Ok, in the final rounds.

please make sure your data is up to date. So I can fill out Chronicles.

Apsels magic closes the wounds of those around him.
Full round channel, affecting everybody but Vixi.

A miss an then another deep cut, but Flameclaw is still bleeding from the last one.

Just to check, Flameclaw was healed and still bleeds from that wound?

Reporting info is still good.

Reporting info is all good ^^

Reporting info looks good.

My reporting info all looks fine.

Mine's good as well :-)

Chronicles are ready. You can pick them up HERE!

Looks good thanks! Cheers for the game all!

Looks good, thanks again for running this.

Was this adventure supposed to give extra Dataphiles rep? It looks like maybe you gave us extra SS(LE) rep instead.

I made it back!

Looks like you finished it without me, good job! Many thanks players and especially GM Gus (playing an extra character on top of the NPCs is an unwelcome burden, I know!)

Chronicle looks good, but same question about the faction rep.

I also need a special +1 to dataphiles from the use of my digital presence boon. I can add that manually but it looks nicer if it has the GMs dot on it (if you could write digital presence used so I can track it that would be much appreciated.)

Bumping for a response to the faction rep question.

That is correct. It should be Dataphiles and not SS(LE) for one of the bonus factions. And it should be Aquistiatives instead of Exo-guardians.

I have updated everyone's HERE!
