[Gameday IX] GM Dennis - SFS 3-00: The Last Bite (Tier 3-4) (Inactive)

Game Master Dennis Muldoon

Discuss your mission here. More info to come! Please do not post here if you have not signed up on the recruitment sheet.

Hey @GM Dennis,

I saw that you GM the special and I never played with you as a GM. We played together Flash's Fire Starters and I wanted to play at one of your tables and this seemed like a perfect opportunity.

I will play here Croaker (lvl 4 Mystic) that played 2-01 Pact World Warriors so he has meet Datch

Hello all! Freeman reporting for duty. A Mechanic 2/ Operative 1 skill monkey of a dwarf!

Oh cool, glad to have a familiar face, Farol! And hello, Freeman!

Hello everybody. Rayburn Giordano is here, with his wrist computer Ellen. Skill monkey and spells are his thing (though being Arcanamirium Sage kinda hurts on the magic hacks....).

Second-1 reporting in! Supercharge and magic missiles for all ;)

I might switch to somebody who can be in the front line (or at least tank) if we don't get a 6th that does that. I do have lots of characters at 3-4 (operative, solarian (flare, but can front line), a mechanic with drone, etc).

Second-1 reporting in! Supercharge and magic missiles for all ;)

Ah, a character I've seen in action before.

Saw it was you GMing and figured I'd try and hop in ;)

Second-1 should be 4th before start time which will be nice.

Rayburn, we could just try and CC the opposition into oblivion. Won't be a front line if they can't reach us!

Second-1, yeah we might be able to do that. I don't hold much faith in that though. So I will swap to Eleazar...who can well...tank if needed. He still is ranged mostly though (but has the HP/SP to take a little more than a technomancer).

So, with that, Eleazar will be here to bring some undead solarian action in....

Just FYI next week 31 August - 5th of September I will be at vacation practicing man trailing with my dogs. That might make my posting infrequent for the first 3 days. I hope to be able to post normally during that time period but time will tell

Sorry for not jumping in her earlier, I had trouble finding my signup, but I knew I had signed up for something! hahaha

Sebrir is a human Envoy who constantly has a camera floating around him recording for his video feed, which is focused on the work of the Starfinders throughout the galaxy. He likes to say that he is just a journalist who doesn't meddle in the affairs of the Starfinders, but he will often be thrust into battle anyway.

Alright folks, HERE are the slides for this game. Please fill in your info and add a token. I'll also add these to the top of the page here, as well as to my header.

Also, if you have not yet dotted in to the gameplay thread, please do that so you get an update when we launch.

I just added one more slide with some relevant boons you you might want to slot if you have them. If you do so, please list your PC name under the appropriate boon. You're welcome to wait until after the mission briefing to make this decision, as usual.

Profession (gambling): 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (17) + 13 = 30

Slides are filled.

Hiya! Sorry for not checking in earlier.

Thank you GM Dennis for running this! Farol, Jim, Peff, happy to play with you again, and cartmanbeck and Joey, nice to meet you!

Helios is currently finishing a run of 1-02 (run by none other than Jim), and I expect we should wrap up soon enough.

No worries, just wanted to make sure everyone had seen the table and whatnot.

Profession(Starship Systems Dev): 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (1) + 16 = 17

Slides will be done shortly.

prof: arms+ammo manufacture: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20

Profession(Vidstreamer): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24

Reporting some shopping

Starting: 5113cr
-1000 Jump Jets
-1000 Manual Sight
-50 Serum of Healing MK1
-50 Serum of Healing MK1
Ending: 3013cr

Nothing crazy, within CRB and Armory level limits.

Just finishing up work and need to get the PF1 special launched (I'm the House GM for that one), then I'll get the initial post up here. Thanks for your patience!

I've posted the introduction phase and added a relevant slide to the deck (linked at the top and in my header). I've also added some slides about Aid Tokens, as we've been selected to start with one! You should either use or boost it in the first encounter, so we can pass it along.

Also, Jime Crase / Eleazar, don't forget to fill in your info on the sign-in slide in the deck, and everyone please fill in your initiative and perception modifiers in the formatted blocks on that same slide.

Will do....been a busy last few weeks with college starting up (and me the Safety Officer for my department).

Oof. No worries, hope you're able to stay safe.

Hey Jim, good luck with that. I fully understand. I do IT work for a local university. Been mostly working from home and hope to continue but the delayed arrival for students actually coming on campus is this weekend...
Meh...

Just starting the semester, so I might be a bit less active for a few days, apologies in advance. Should fall in order in a few days hopefully.

I saw that going much differently...but positive outcome is positive!

Thoughts on the next mission? I'm thinking maybe Diaspora?

You are just about at the end of the infiltration mission. What would you like to do next?

Also, we should pass that aid token. You don't really need it for this mission, so I'd suggest boosting it and I can pass it along.

I am fine with that suggestion. We can go with corporate culture and then starship

Anyone else? Otherwise I'll launch Corporate Culture later tonight.

Ooh, missed the whole day! I'm in for Corporate Culture if everyone else is!

Well, there goes that idea. The House GM just closed that mission. However, the Action mission in the same location is available, so we could jump there if you'd like (you get to meet the same NPC there).

My vote goes to either the newly available vehicle mission, or the remaining covert starship mission. Up for pretty much anything, though.

I'd be good with vehicle, feel like I never do much with those.

Croaker has 1 point in piloting giving him +4 to be a pilot.

So He is a way better shooter. And a caster while driving ;)

Helios has a +9 in piloting, but also has a decent attack and can also cast spells

Yes...piloting...haha.

Second-1 is not a pilot. Gunner maybe, more likely to be trying shenanigans with spells while we drive ;)

Can I just pick the biggest gun? Does proficiency matter in this case?

Proficiency does matter, I'm afraid. You can also just shoot your own guns, though there is a penalty from the car to attacks from weapons not stabilized on turrets (-2 or -4 at full speed).

The two turrets on each car are in addition to the autodisabler that comes standard.

To be clear, there are two turrets on each car, so you can choose two weapons to mount per car.

The House GM says we're moving on to Part 3 soon, which includes a starship combat. Let's get starship roles settled before then, so we can launch right into it.

Sebrir is by far best at being Captain. He does have decent Engineering if needed, though.

Helios has Piloting at +9, Computers at +11, Mysticism at +7 and Gunning at +5, so I can fill if we're lacking one of these.

Engineering +11, Computers +12, Gunner + 6

Slight Preference toward Science or Engineer, passable gunner depending on mounts and others.

Croaker is either a Gunner +6 (or +7 with Mystical Guidance Systems Upgrade) or Magic Officer +10. He can be passable Captain (but that is covered).

Freeman gladly handles the captains seat to Sebrir. His other applicable skills are:
Computer +14, Engineering +14, Mysticism +huh?, Piloting +9, gunner would be...+5.
He's best at science or engineering but i'm happy to sit anywhere. :)

Well. by the numbers it looks like our best bet is:
Sebrir: Captain.
Helios: pilot.
Second1: Science.
Croaker: Gunner or Magic officer.
Freeman: Engineer.
Eleazar: Gunner.

That's just pure numbers. I'm always of the mind that if someone really wants a position, go for it. If the fur flies too bad, we can swap around.

Thoughts?

If the fur flies too bad...

Croaker focuses his gaze on TheFreeman.

"My fur does not fly badly... shorty!" :P

I am fine with that separation. We can also be dynamic on where we are. Some positions do not have to be staffed the whole time.

Eleazar could also be Chief Mate if we want that...otherwise yeah, gunner.
