Of course if somebody wants to take over from me in keeping track... :P

And a DAMN good one too! It's standard saftey proceedure for all properly trained soldiers to check the status of any and every weapon they lay hands on. This is usually done by first completely unloading and reloading. Of course if you're picking up one in the middle of a fight that's a bit different....

Brown and Tanya, can you please inform the other of exactly how many mags, ammo, etc is being swapped so that they can update their character sheet. By PM is fine if you don't feel like RPing it.

That's why I said 'clean!'  No responsible person owning weapons wouldn't do that.

PM sent to Brown.

Yesterday i was on the funeral last weeks has led up to. Hopefully it will lighten up on my life. Will post when I have read some things over.

Funerals.... Such joyous occasions...  :(

I hope you were a comfort to those celebrating the life and memory of that special person, Don.  And I hope someone was the same to you.  Please don't worry about this while you're dealing with more important things.

New thread up. Post away with your impressions/reactions. The city proper is still about another 10-15 minutes along the road.

Don, I believe your character has very little possessions since the "mugging" Only those items left behind (pack and sleeping bag) were left - everything else was stripped right down to underwear.

Might be an idea to check out the equipment list recently updated on the yahoo site and request a few items.... A weapon would also be nice if somebody had a spare.

Don, I gave Michelle the PM-63 I had been toting around for some time.  Since she's not going, I'd suggest getting it from her!  You've got my blessing.

Thanks Tanya. Haven't shot a lot in this game, and probably won't forward either, but a gun is good.

Better than sharp sticks and rocks....

Updated the equipment thread for those without excel.

Don, you might want to draw a few more stores.... Those extra mags you have don't fit too well in pockets.
On the other hand, there's not exactly a lot of spare personal equipment either...

I guess I should fix a new account into yahoo as well, I have forgotten everything into the group....

Tanya, I plugged into the commo system, and as we're pretty empty I imagine everyone heard it.  I didn't intend to make it sound like it was only to Don, sorry.

I just wanted to make sure before I make any comments.  Thanks!

Katka's report card:

"Doesn't play well with others."

:)  That was a very nice post, and not just for the ending humor.  It really said a lot about your character and her experiences.

Virgil was just moments away from firing too although he was going to aim above their heads.... :/

There is no loudspeakers. In fact the radio that's presently fitted into the vehicle was scaveneged from elsewhere.
When found, the BTR-80 had suffered significant damage:
<quote>This vehicle has suffered damage to it’s Radio, Engine and Traverse. It is no longer capable of swimming due to numerous holes in the armour.</blue>
All but the armour has been subsequently repaired/replaced.

I need to know how fast the BTR was moving before the crowd and how fast Don is driving now.
Essentially I would like to know if Don will be using the human blockade as speed humps, or driving slowly enough that they can move out of the way with only a small chance of injury.

Hands up all those who think their characters are being mentally screwed up? First Tanya killing the pregnant girl and now Don having to run over several starving people, what's next? :P

I wonder who is being mentally screwed up, putting us IN the situations ;)

I like to think moral dilemmas add an interesting dimension to the game. :P
Besides, if you'd decided not to grind a bunch of barely armed and starving refugees into the pavement with a 10 tonne vehicle, I'm sure another solution would have presented itself. :D

I agree about the dilemmas, they really put you on edge.

Don didn't want to drive through the crowd. But I was in a lot of time-pressure myself, doing the post since nuked wanted an answer. I borrowed my fathers computer for a few mins, and didn't have too much time to think. Which I guess was rather fitting in the situation that the chars are in right now :)

[raises hand] It's great roleplaying though!!!

My posting is going tohave to slow down for a little bit (once a day at the best) for a couple of weeks.  I've got a lot of personal stuff going on here and my computer has taken the Big Crap!

Katka's mental condition is just fine. If they aint gonna move than they deserve to get run over! I always say, the biggest car wins and we got the biggest car. I was also going to say sorry for not posting in a week due to work but, I see thats not a problem. LOL
