[SFS2 Playtest] Playtest Scenario #1

Game Master Redelia

discussion is now open

Hi, thanks for letting me into the game!

I'm most curious about Soldier. It's pretty interesting how the class can both do melee and ranged combat at equal proficiency, even though generally starting with a 14 in attacking stats is not very good. Also, I like how Soldier can both do a ranged strike and reflex save in 2 actions.

All this is just a long way of saying that I want to play as Obozaya, heavy weapons lizard.

Out of all the options, I like the Mystic as a character and the Envoy as a class so I'd prefer one of those.

I will play as operative for this game.

Then I'll take Navasi.

Iseph is ready.

This was a preexisting profile from playing a pregen Navasi before, so this profile is not correct.

But I can handle that tonight, no trouble.

Once you get a profile set up for your pregen, go ahead and look over the rules.

"Obozaya is ready! Heh ha ha!"

I'm ready. I've read the rules in the GM Redelia profile and am ok with them. No consumables or once per day activations on this character though.

I've created the gameplay thread, so please dot and delete with your chosen alias when it's ready. As soon as everyone dots in, we can begin.

I've gotta build a profile but I've got the alias now and I can dot.

I'm sorry about the delay, everyone. I homeschool my kids, and we started this week, and I always forget how exhausting the first week is.

Physical and Life Science?

I think they are lores for the playtest. I hope they will be included as skills along with Computers and Piloting.

Life Science and Nature are essentially different names for the same thing.

Sorry, everyone, the mechanics of these survey points feel a little awkward and slow in PbP.

Sorry about the delay. Had a lot of stuff going on with a driving test 3 hours out of town and a house inspection ._.

I will be traveling and so unlikely to post this weekend. We will resume when I return early next week.

Sorry, brought home a bug from my trip, so not feeling well. I will be back when I can.

I'm back, and ready to start. I just wanted to make sure everyone is here and wanting to continue first.

Present or accounted for!

Minis out, ready for a bout!

I am ready to continue, GM.

Ready to fire!

OK, I'll move us on tomorrow. I need to reread the adventure and make sure I know where we are.

sorry, everyone; I'm definitely not at 100% yet; I had covid for the first time and it's leaving me exhausted easily still. I've managed to post to all my other games, but have no energy left for getting a fight set up. I will get us moving tomorrow.

I'm really sorry, everyone, especially when you've been so patient with my illness, but I'm realizing that I'm not enjoying the playtest at all. I don't think it's possible for me to make this fun for you when I feel that way, so I'm going to end this adventure.

Would you like me to find someone else to take over so that you can finish the scenario?

All good, GM! I really appreciate you sharing how you feel about the playtest. It's important that both players and GMs enjoy the game. Looking forward to seeing you around!

I understand entirelyt. I've been dealing with some real life issues that have been slowing my down and keeping me distracted. Games can be hard to keep up with when things get serious.

You shouldn't feel pressured to finish the game if you would prefer to focus on your recovery.
