Meanwhile, I bought Claim. Let's plan to start Wed night. I believe Iseph is the operative. TG's on the witchwarper or soldier.
Since this is a bit of a side quest, I'd like to take Claim at a faster clip. Hopefully I can realize that ambition.

I can not edit this Google Sheet. Can you please make it editble for those with the link?!
I was sure that I changed the permissions to edit with link.
Let's try this one.

First post for Claim is up.
You guys are going to hit a little starship combat pretty quick. It might be a good idea to sort out your ship combat roles here before the fight actually begins.
Totally up to you.
It would be easier for me to have your stats easily available. If you elect to use your regular alias please alter your stat line to reflect the pregen's stats. Can may feel free to change the pregen's names or other flavor to better suit your preferences. All game mechanics must stay the same.
As a heads up we'll use pregens for one of the scoured storyline scenarios because there's a high level scenario in the middle of the arc.
Bad news. I PM'd Gimry and he's dropping out. We can continue with the three of you and a DM PC, or I can recruit. What do you think?
I agree we need more long term players. By 'proceeding with 1 additional pregen' do you mean recruit now, or that I should run a pregen so we can keep moving?
Technomancer, mystic, operative. How about a nice soldier to fill out the group?

Almost forgot. I'm visiting my parents this weekend. So you won't hear from me til Monday.
Work and home life keeping me busy. Will try to get a post in tonight or tomorrow morning. Gone away again this weekend.
Please BOT me as needed, I will be away for a week.
No. I loved the fun fact. I was riffing on a 'beautiful theory destroyed by an ugly fact.' One of my favorite quotes.
There are lots of similarly worded attributions on-line. I have no idea which is actually the first, or even the correct one, but this one popped up most consistently on my web search.

In other news -- Tuesday night was frisbee night and I was too tired to post when I got home. Yesterday I ended up on a field trip with the boss and didn't get home til almost midnight. I promise a post on my lunch break today.
Iseph's player, Buckshot Bob, should be back soon, maybe even today. That will give you three + the pregen. You're still a legal table.
We want to start recruiting about a week before we finish this module.
Space combat starting. Seems like Thundergun has a good handle on it. Does anyone else have questions? Are those flashcards clear?
If anyone is new to space combat we can take the first round or two slowly.
Pregen's can let you relax and try something different.
Just to let you know I am in the processing of moving. And with the holidays coming up please BOT me if needed. I will try and keep up with my posts, but at this time my new place does not even have internet service and the soonest they can get there I am told is December 3rd.
Weird month coming up at work. I'll be traveling Tues-Thursday next week and the week of the 22nd. The week of the 8th I'll be on the road Mon-Thur. And the week of the 15th I'm in a class.
Posting may be spotty.
With that warning out of the way, I'd really like to finish the scenario before Christmas.
Sorry for the gap in posting. Long work hours, travel and chores at home are conspiring to keep me from posting. Still traveling this week.
This week's road trip for work had longer hours than usual. Good news is I've got a few days off. Bad news is they'll be family heavy with a visit to my parents Sunday -- no internet there.
Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays, as you will. I hope you can enjoy them with your own families.
Guys, we're getting near the end. I should start recruiting for your new team member or members. A few things to discuss before making the recruiting post:
1. do you all want to continue?
2. Since playing pregens went pretty well, what would you think about running the story arc adventures with pre-gens? That way we wouldn't need to run extra adventures just to get your characters leveled up. We could finish the story arc faster. One drawback -- without properly leveled PCs, it might not be possible to play the specials for SFS credit.
Note: we'll have to do at least one story arc scenario with pre-gens anyway. It's a 7-8 sandwiched between 3-4s or something like that.

1. Yes, I absolutely want to continue.
2. I'd really like to continue with Idir. As much as I'm enjoying playing Keskodai, I created Idir specifically for this game, and honestly, I don't mind the extra adventures to level up, as it gives us an opportunity to see more of the side-adventures in this season.
You're all still first level. You can completely rebuild Thundergun.
Does anyone have a friend or two that they'd like to bring into the game?
Also, I'd like to run 1-02 Fugitive on the Red Planet next. It's a quick romp on Akiton.
After that I'll run 1-03 Yesteryear's Truth It's a first contact scenario.
With those under your belt to level you up, we can run 1-05 The First Mandate This is the first of the story arc modules. I really want you to be level 2 when you do it so you can be very impressive.
After 1-05, we can jump to 1-09 Live Exploration Extreme! that's one on Salvation's End.
Any objections to those scenarios and order?

Hello there! Kuozar can return to the process. However, he is already level 2 (and maybe he has only 1 game up to level 3, I'll check).
I played 1-02 twice and GMed three times. So I would prefer another scenario. 1-05 is the most interesting for me, to be honest.
In any case, I'm keeping an eye on your progress and I'm glad that this journey continues!
‘Eκάτη, nice to hear from you. Maybe we can work something out. Please fill out your column in the linked spreadsheet.
I want to get the party to second level before we play 1-05, so that you can really do well with it.
Meantime, we should probably try to pick up one or two more. Five or six would be a better party size, and we'll probably have a little more attrition before we're done.
So anybody have a friend they want to invite?
Gimry, in the link above fill out any scenarios you've played.

I put X where I played or GMed. The ones I've only GMed I can replay, but this is a less desirable option than playing a new one. There are quite a few scenarios from the second half of the first season that I haven't played. And there are also repeatable scenarios, they can be played several times even when you have already played them.
