Used to be you! But now a whole team"sees" it by living in it until I can merge things back together.

In reply to Fiernas Holm (msg # 43):

So Barachial swims across, Fiernas and a dog boat across (since Fiernas knows where the hell we are going).  I stay with a dog and Kayla.  If there is a boat on the other side then Fiernas and Barachial can bring them back and get both of us, if not then barachial brings the boat back gets Kayla and a dog, then swims back and I fly back.

Thats minimum number of trips I think.

This is like one of those fifth grade brain teasers...

OOC: How active an approach do you want to make? Are you scanning for settlements? Broadcasting? Trying to be invisible?

I dunno...fly casual.

I assume we're looking for some kind of installation or base of operations on the surface.  If we don't find anything there are some lessons to be learned from Ceres but since we've seen the future, there is something on the surface to find (unless it's cloaked or something, I guess).  Xander's both in command and the pilot's chair so if he has any better ideas defer to him.

The Power Detection thing is called Baxter's Eye. I don't see it listed among Rebecca's equipment so I don't know where it is right now.

There was only ever one, and it was installed into Persephone (and is now lost) as far as I can tell.

There is a different Power Detection tool Rebecca does have available to her, but IIRC it's not as good as the Eye. I also don't see that on her sheet, and I should see it there if you intend to use it (oversight, or did something happen to it?)

I can't really advance Kamikaze 'til I know if Abraxis is coming (or Xander for that matter, I suppose). Not rush, just an FYI :)

My thoughts exactly.  Was wondering is this where the timelines start getting super close or are we still days away.

Sorry bad with time IRL... bad with time in game.

Billy pretending to have the upper hand is an insufferable jackass, what did you expect to happen when it was genuine?

One day Billy is going to get a gun.  And shoot people with it.  And start losing.  And then he's going to use that very line.  I have a quest now.

I've made a few posts to the rules thread that are worth reading, particularly the bit about tactics.

The force field/body armor entry may change depending on how people feel about it. At the moment, they function as they used to.

So I don't understand the benefit of the fastball special... it doesn't seem very good...

In reply to Nightmare (msg # 65):

All of the "tactics" are meant to be situational. In the case of Fastball Special, it's mostly good if you have a dude who sucks at range but can't close the gap to a guy raining down hell from afar (maybe there's a chasm, or the other guy can fly, or similar).
