Taking a DEX upgrade. Will finalize my deck when I get home to look at what is available for armor etc to add . Didn't have something planned ahead of time.
To save Nok-Nok having to read through chat here is what he needs to know. He needs to make a combat 10 check vs the undead from our last location or take 1d4 -1 combat damage. He can then attempt a Intelligence Knowledge 8 check vs a barrier to draw a random item. This location has a beginning of turn check of Wisdom/Survival 5 or we take 1d4 structural damage to the ship. And it isn't tagged but Ukuja examined the next 2 cards of the location deck. Card 2 is a weapon B but card 1 is a very nasty barrier that we really want you to beat. I think you should use 1 or even 2 blessings if you think it is needed.

Couple of things that I'm surprised hasn't come up.
1. Timezone you reside in?
2. Times you know you can't play (besides sleeping)
For me, I reside in CST (central US), and my work hours vary wildly each day. For example, today I work starting at 4:30am until 3:30 pm. Tomorrow my shift doesn't start until 2pm, but I may be called in earlier to work if need be.
Also, Thanksgiving Holiday (THU, FRI, SAT) I will be out of town visiting my parents and internet access will be spotty at best. I don't know the BR's plan for the holiday (if he wants to keep running or take a couple day break), but feel free to bot me those days if need be. I will be back Sunday afternoon to resume regular posting!
