This is a central discussion thread for the year of Fortune's Fall playthrough. More info to follow.
/cough - Super keen!
When do you want sign ups to begin?
Hey Shifty, great to have you! You can already sign up your name in the linked spreadsheet, which is the system I'll use for now. I've started inviting other players, so let's see who wants to join.
I can imagine it will be harder to fill the 6-01 and 6-02 tables, because they're offered at conventions (e.g. PaizonCon online) and the playerbase for PbP Starfinder tends to be sparser. I can start the games anytime on or after May 31st, which is when they become available for the general public.
Hello! Thanks for inviting me. I'd definitely like to be involved.
The only caveat is that I'm trying not to overload myself on games so I could only commit to one game at a time if you're going to run 2 or 3.
But I love getting a group of characters together and running them through several scenarios as a group, so I hope you'll consider me.
I am here! Looking forward to playing through season six with everyone and thank you Kludde for inviting me.
@Shifty, happy to have the chance to play with you this time as opposed to you trying to TPK my PC's party!

...I mean, I can still give it a red hot go to nuke the party, just from the INSIDE this time.
I'm hoping to see a J'Shun/Chorizal appearance when we hot the correct tier adventures.
Wonderful! Looks like we have a core group of players, which is really great news. If you know any further players that you think would be interested in this, please send me a PM and I'll reach out to them. I'm still awaiting a response from two invites, but I'm not expecting both of them to say yes (though I'm always ready to be pleasantly surprised).
I'll also set up tables for 6-01 and 6-02 once the 'herding cats' phase of the PaizonCon Online games is over. Can you already reserve your names in the sign-up sheet (if you haven't already done so), so I know how many seats I need to fill from open recruitment?
I'm pretty sure the space admiral will be making an appearance, hopefully with his favorite captain to back him up also.

I've pulled everyones stats and popped the lot into a spreadsheet in the SLIDES deck.
It's tough as Cham is both the best pilot and the best gunner, and I have to admit that high a gunnery score could mean significantly more shots landed, but at the same time, it likely means a lot of winning init.
Pilot: Cham
Gun 1: HK (alternate Sci/Eng)
Gun 2: Doc (alternate Cap)
Gun 3: Twil
Mago: Dara
Chief: Astra
We're in a Drake so we can theoretically have up to FOUR weapons brought to bear each round, this ship is all about the Gunnery, or adding things that make our gunners able to moar-gun.
Just had another look - we're in the T6 Drake so:
Attack (Forward) particle beam (8d6), coilgun (4d4)
Attack (Port) coilgun (4d4)
Attack (Aft) coilgun (4d4)
Attack (Turret) heavy plasma torpedo launcher (5d10)
At best we get three weapons into play each round, but our combat effectiveness in the Drake is almost entirely reliant on positioning enemies into that frontal arc - which means we need to dominate the initiative - which means your super high +16 on Piloting. Ideally we give you a +2 off the Trinode as well to further ensure you can dominate initiative and force them to keep moving first.

I actually don't know anything about that band. Cha'mon's name was inspired by this scene from one of my favorite movies Rush Hour 2, Cha'mon, Lee!

Works for me. DocMedevac™ and HunterKiller 42-5 can have the particle beam and the Turret, since they'll be more likely to hit. I'll take a coilgun.
Geez the combat is running efficiently :)

Hey, It's Mama Rae. Mama Rae, eat or play. Does your horse neigh? Mama Rae! Don't go away! Come to Mama Rae! I can do this all day, Mama Rae!
Context question: Is this a commercial playing over an intercom or on a nearby video screen? A thought protruding into our minds? Does it have a catchy or cringey jingle?
Yes, I'm focused on the least important thing right now. ;p

It might be a jingle that you have seen or heard, and it definitely comes with a cringey tune. The intention was for the jingle to be 'something that exists in the universe', for example a message you might encounter on the infosphere, like such:

Final apology! That was the last of my craziness. I'm back full time all the time. Catching up this morning.
Welcome back to the normal world, no crazy people here ;-). I suppose the first point of order would be to post a combat action in 6-01
I've added threads for 6-03 and 6-04, which will be released on June 28.
6-03 is a tier 3-6 game, and a metaplot follow-up of 6-01, so it makes sense to start that one after 6-01 is finished.
6-04 is a tier 9-12 game, which I'll offer as soon as 6-02 is completed.
At this point, I've opened up the Sign-up sheet and have created gameplay threads to dot in to.
I'll be announcing the 6-03 and 6-04 games on the station in a couple of days. If you want to claim a spot before that time, put your name up on the sign-up sheet here
Ooh, I'd love to play 6-03, but I'll be unable to post from July 1-9. Have fun without me, guys!
I've added a row to the sign-up sheet to allow players to voice their interest in a recent game, and I'll start it once I have enough players (provided I have capacity). You can sign up for 6-03 (on the lower row), and we can start it anytime after July 9, if we get enough players. It's a lot easier for me to run a second table of the same game.

Thanks! I'll do that.
Back! Sorry work got a little hectic in a remote area, back home now, 4 hours sleep in the last 72 so updating posts, cleaning all my gear, dinner, bed :p
The next games have been released, so let's get seated at the tables! Please dot in at the gameplay threads and do all the paperwork. There's enough paperwork to satisfy a Hellknight in there.

Thanks for letting me know, I'll call in the reserve player.
RPG Chronicles for 6-03 and 6-04 say they are still for 6-01 in the scenario section, so it won't let you register a PC that is higher than level 4 for them.
The scenario list for RPGC still doesn't contain the new scenarios. I've set the scenarios to 6-02 and 5-10 for now, they cover the same level ranges. Can you try again?
It works now.
