Not a boon, but I want to make sure the party is aware that I can give a way a reroll with +1 (for my novas) once during the scenario. I usually try to save this for something important like a will save against a nasty spell or a computers check that's needed to finish the scenario. (funnily enough, I can't use this reroll myself, and don't have one of my own, so it's actually for anyone but me... :) )

I'm in, the only question I have to ask, is that this is a 1-4 right? Allows me to know which character to bring in.

Oh, right 1-4

Yes... at least that is what the prerelease stuff says.

It'll drop next week. Given me a day or two to read it and then we'll be good to go.

Still got space?

Yeap, though others are level 1/2...

FYI, I have PC's lvl 3 and 4 if we want to play high tier

Ahh ok, I'll pass on this one then, would get a bit silly as a crunch T4 :0

Vaal Noor is level 3, but he's a drone mechanic, so...

Time to jump into gameplay.

Actually, as an experiment, I'd like to try to use the online chronicle filler-in.

Can you upload your information for chronicles to here

We are live in gameplay now...

Vaal's computers is pretty close to right
Skill ranks (3) (presumably)
Inclass (3)
Bypass (mechanic) (1)
Int (2)
Tech Savvy (Izalguuns racial) (2)

His engineering is one higher than I can account for as well, so it maybe there is something else giving that extra bonus point that I can't figure out.

I'm going away for the weekend. I may get one post in tomorrow but that will be it for a few days.

Thanks for letting us know @GM. Have a great weekend!

Sorry about the wait, and thanks for the bot. I was unable to post due to a night owl small child taking up my usual time.

Small children... always take priority.

@GM - the next week I will have a spontaneous vacation. I am not certain if I will be able to post on daily basis, I should, but I can't say for certain.

I will fill the botting section for Makai if you would have to bot me.

No worries. I can bot if necessary. I'm back now.

Please bot me if I'm holding things up for the next few days. I'm going to be taking care of a family member if they feel ill from the second covid shot.

No worries. After next weekend I'll be away for almost a week as I go tramping. We *might* be finished by then, but I suspect not, and don't want to rush things. So if there is a pause, don't worry.

Jinsul robots? Though I doubt we'll see the jinsul in anything important ever again.

They don't look precisely like jinsul. Although the multilimbed/legged approach does have some similarities.

@GM - sorry I could have been more descriptive. Makai uses Gulchgun which has a capacity of 4 shells. I always imagine this gun to feel like a pump-action rifle. Where you pump part of the barrel to move a new shell into the chamber throwing out a used one. So it is flavor only.

Ammo wise, I am 2/4 still so no need to do the reload action. So Makai simply moves and misses

Ahh, no worries. Just thematic!

With this group I probably didn't need to be doing the 4 player adjustment. Given you were all 2s with a single 3. Oh well.

Dunno, that big guy earlier was hitting like a bull.

Crowd control mech? Yeah, he was kind of nasty. You still took him down pretty fast.

Bit of a rush , but we are done.

Thanks very much for playing and welcome to the meta-event for the year.

I've used the auto-filler for chronicles, they look good apart from a missing tick in the description at the top. Please do double check them carefully as I have not tried doing it this way before.

I'll be back in a week if there are any problems that need fixing.

Please do double check them carefully as I have not tried doing it this way before.

Where?

Bah, posted everything to the wrong game.

Chronicles are now available in this game.

Also linked above.

Oh, almost forgot, can you please put on my chronicle, +1 to SRO boon. or something like that. This makes box 3 of 30 checked for me.
Also, which box should we have checked. We prevented a train crash, not survived it right?

You prevented a train crash.
Feel free to annotate the chronicle with the SRO note. IF anyone questions it, you can always point them to this thread.

Sorry, last minute frantic packing no time for editing chronicles atm.

@GM - the chronicle looks good, downloaded and saved.

Thank you for running it! I had great time.

I do feel like in this scenario starfinder lack purpose, so I was unsure if we should rush towards Lorespire, or help at every malfunctioning traffic light.

Either way, I loved it.

@Vaal Noor, @GM - regarding preparing the droid, there was an errata:

'Once per day, a mechanic can take 10 minutes to repair their drone, which then recovers 10% of its Hit Point maximum. Additionally, any time a mechanic takes a 10-minute rest and spends a Resolve Point to recover their Stamina Points, they can also choose to repair their drone as part of that same time period. This is an exception to the normal rule that you cannot perform any tasks while taking a 10-minute rest to recover your Stamina Points. The repair drone mechanic trick increases the amount the mechanic's drone recovers when it is repaired (in either way) to 25% of its maximum Hit Points.'

Just FYI. Have a great vacation @Aerondor!

chronicle looks good.

Thanks, Aerondor, for running a fun game. Enjoy your trip.

Thanks everyone, for the fun.

Chronicles are now available in this game.

The chronicles check out, thanks for GMing!

I do feel like in this scenario starfinder lack purpose, so I was unsure if we should rush towards Lorespire, or help at every malfunctioning traffic light.

It felt very random and nonsensical. Some corrections in the structure would probably improve it a lot:

Avoid train crash > Arrive at lorespire complex, help defend against crappy robots and receive orders to go help around > fight slimes/fix traffic jam or fix traffic jam/fight slimes > fight giant robot > return to base.

Great.

I'm back. Looks like there were no major concerns. Agreed that the layout of the scenario was...odd. I think a flow chart would help the GM for it as well.

I'll mark this as inactive now. Thanks very much for playing everyone.
