Simon Pritch's page

SO I obviously was unable to get caught up and instead fell further behind. I really need to teach myself to respect my personal bandwidth. Sorry about that. I'm interested in the project and SW rules, I just have too much on my plate and all of my games are suffering as a result.

Good luck cadets!

I'm barely able to keep up myself. I figured even with a new system I'd be okay as just a player, but nope, real-life is kicking my butt (and everyone's butt it seems) lately. That said, I'm not trying to bow out just yet. I like this character a lot and need to get a little more out of him, but feel free to bot me whenever I'm holding things up simply because I don't want to stand in the way and with a pair of medium lasers I'm not super exciting anyway!

Will have a new real post up sometime in the next 24 hours! Apologies again!

+++Control, I've got some sort of crazy sim lag going on in here!+++ Pritch growls into his throat mic before kicking the plastic console. The screens fuzz for a second before refreshing. The Wasp has jumped in space and missiles streak away from it. Oh, come on! It's like I've got gremlins following me everywhere!

He jams his feet down and yanks the stick around to make a somewhat evasive approach and lines up a shot with his medium laser.

Shooting w/move: 1d10 - 2 ⇒ (4) - 2 = 2 Well that was exciting on my part, huh? lol

Sorry, RL just wants to pile on. Getting caught up presently.

Sorry I'm being a touch slow, super new to SW so been having to squeeze in some reading.

I think my 'mech shall be named after the car I owned up until a few months ago: "Deathtrap". I think this will give it the dignity that such a fine battlemech as the Spider deserves.

Open to callsign suggestions still!

+++Mic check, 1, 2, 3, mic hot, you copy control?+++ Simon's hands grasp the controls and he finds the familiar firing studs for his lasers. Throttle is a little looser than Gramp's Spider. But oh? I wish my pedals gave me this kind of feedback, he thinks testing the resistance of the interface. +++All set, control. Let's play hide and seek, over.+++

A fresh-faced young man with sandy hair comes hustling through the door. He scats a bass line and moves his body to his own rhythm as he stows his bag in one the temporary lockers. He strips off his cadet uniform quickly without stopping his beat-boxing or dancing until he's wearing his boots, boxers, and a vintage Buckaroo Banzai and the Hong Kong Cavaliers t-shirt under a cooling vest.

Once ready for the simulator he spins in place theatrically and claps. "Got my war face on, let's go! I gotta work out my frustration from Professor Warren's 'Advanced Jump Jet Troubleshooting' practical. How do I ace the written and barely pass the practicals every freakin' time?" he asks no one in particular.

He moves to the ready position and stands at attention. "Cadet Simon Pritch reporting for duty!"

This is dickie's new alias! Do we have any gear we need to worry about? Other than drumsticks, which would be a flavor item, Simon wouldn't worry about a lot. He might keep a weapon in the cockpit, but nothing special. A generic slug thrower, a medkit, and basic survival kit.

Any specific information or format for the classes/level line?

Also have a limited number of posts where I could potentially add a callsign, open to suggestions from the rest of the crew, since they're the ones most likely to have given me one.
