Hope Keeper doesn't mind if I post this here...
I don't mind at all. I likely should recruit for here too, but been trying to get back to a regular update format first.
Sorry i have not been on. My significant other has been to the hospital daily the last few days.
We are going still for the next few days as well
Sorry to hear that, hope everything works out ok.
Hope they are doing better. I also had a death in the family over the weekend so it will be a few more days getting the list up.
@ Keeper, my deepest sympathies for your family.
Update
Wife is now transitioned to home care, so I don't need to drive her to the hospital daily.
Was sepsis, with the possibility of Necrotizing Fasciitis.
We caught it fast enough that it required draining an abscess, and lots of antibiotics via IV.
As soon as I get caught up on reading, I will be posting.
Keeper - I missed your note, sorry to hear about your situation.
Rufus - glad things worked out ok.
@Rufu very glad your wife is improving and they caught it.
I am behind on a few things and frankly forgot how many things are in that book. So it will be a bit longer on a full list, but if you know the types of items you might like or the price range I can get a partials list of those easy enough
The categories are
Conveyances
Vehicle Accessories
Rail Car Accessories
Armor & Clothing
Miscellanea
Labor Savers
Elixirs & Tonics
Ghost Rock & Boilers
Weapons & Accessories
Travel Essentials
Intimidate falls under persuasion?
If so i got a d4, so not the best
No, its a stand alone skill based on Spirit. Which, if you are not trained is not a great roll. Its d4-2 for an untrained skill
I am going to have to go through and check my advances, and make a spoiler.
This way I am not improving things that cannot be improved in each level.
IE spirit 2 times in the same level. :)
Damn, missed the edit time by 12 minutes.
Went through the discussion, from the beginning.
We have had a total of 4 advances so far, so this will make us seasoned.
If you want the pages, let me know, I will go find them again.
Edit, wrong game talking about the advances. But still the point stands. :)
FWIW, I have 3 Advancements recorded on my character sheet. That doesn't mean that's how many have been awarded...
<time passes...>
I found the following posts with a search :
You guys just recently got an advance, After the encounter with the shaman. Not sure if everyone took it or not however. If not everyone should bring themselves up to two advances.

At this point take another advance and reset bennies. I am gonna keep better track of those and reset them at lest once every few weeks. You will likely also have a few days down time in town as Bill will need to recruit.

So it's been over a year since we got an Advancement.
Going multiple directions, in a short amount of time, AKA spinning here at work.
But I will get the pages of the advancements in a bit.
Will have to go back through the discussion pages.
I also have 3 advances listed.
Ok, I went through the discussion page again, and these are the days that we got advances.
Advance 1 - May 29 2021
Advance 2 - August 23 2021
Advance 3 - Apr 9 2023
Advance 4 - Jan 8 2024
Sorry I cannot give post numbers, but those are the days that we got advances.
Yeah I need to speed us up some but you should have 4 at this time. So feel free to look though them all and make sure you have 4, you should be on your first seasoned.
It wasnt a dig, i just figured i would go through, when i did my spoiler for advances.
The reasoning was when we got the next advance, i could confirm what i had advanced this level without guessing, and thus avoid doubling up on advances when i am not allowed to do that.
Besides, your game, you can advance us as fast as you want
My RL has been very spotty over the few last years. Which is why my updates are wonky. I should do a bit more uniform advancing and posting, which I am working on
I guess we finished that sidequest, with an absolutely terrible resolution.
Any carnies who are just folks who were dragged along are now homeless and penniless. All of their worldly possessions have been blown up. The whole landscape in the area is now a haunted Fear site that is going to have monsters and ghosts for decades to come, becoming a source of local legends about abductions, murders, and horrors.
Yet it seems our characters lack the skills to have done things any other way.
Real feel-bad moment.
While yes they are homeless, they are also no longer mind controlled slaves. And yeah it may have raised the fear level on this spot, it was nothing compared to what they were going do to all those small towns.
That's how I was looking at it, given the dream/vision that you gave me. I (and Flying Eagle) knew we were dealing with a powerful, vicious evil.
Well, we only broke the cargo wagons, so not quite homeless.
We also did our best to avoid killing.
The last wagon can be repaired and they can carry on.
As for the local area, people will travel around it and ajust
All of this is true, they lost the urns and maybe some cargo, but not the main house wagon, which has supplies and it can move slow even with 2 horses. You guys can loot the wagon or leave it for them.
Also you guys can take an advance and reset bennies
Also you guys can take an advance and reset bennies
This pushing us to Seasoned?
@ Rufus, no problem. I have major back issues myself so I feel you man. I hope you get feeling better,
As pointed out above, this will be your 5th advance.
Advance 1 - May 29 2021
Advance 2 - August 23 2021
Advance 3 - Apr 9 2023
Advance 4 - Jan 8 2024
Which means this should be your second seasoned. If not go ahead and fix that.
I also want to see thoughts on maybe trying to recruit again. I am working on my slow updates but that is an issue, along with low SW players on the site anyhow. But thought it was something I should bring up

Thank you! Working on updating.
Advance 4 (Seasoned): Edge: Combat Reflexes.Advance 5 (Seasoned): Vigor d6->d8
I'm not opposed to picking up a recruit.
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.
