someone with strong computer skills might be able to right up a translation program on a datapad.

1c 2d Computer. use Xenology 3d to generate Boosts. 1setback if you want it done before nightfall.

On it.  ;)

'Kraken' rolled 3 successes, 1 advantage.  Xenology - Boost.

Would this give me 4 boost to Computers?

2 boosts.

In reply to The Force (msg # 435):

TADA!

'Kraken' rolled 3 successes using the Star Wars Edge of the Empire with a dice pool of 2p 2a 2b 1c 2d 1s.  Computers - translation program.
 - Took the setback dice to get it done before nightfall.

Who has a datapad?

If you have one, you can use the program.

I have a datapad, I already used it to show the picture of the tree.

I've updated the language list. if you suddenly became able to see previous conversations, that is why. It doesn't make that much sense, but eh.

If you have a datapad or something and I didn't give you the new language, tell me.

If you want to rig it up to your commlinks  so that everyone has access to the program, you can without making a check. However, it does mean that your commlinks are broadcasting very often.

I have a Datapad. It's for Xyklos rock music!

Thanks for supporting me there Xyklo! :-)

In reply to Xyklo Voozul (msg # 440):

Did I give you Geik language?

I can read it, so I'd say that's a yes.
Xyklo does have a Datapad for Krakens program...

I read over the previous posts, trying to remember the mission details and found this from Caddy.  I found it humorous now that we've had some history since then.

I'm not see the funny side, Kraken? :(



Anyway... just on an OOC note, we do have (at least) one player who is afk at the moment.   We could send them with the natives to gather info and then catch up with them once the Imperials are distracted?   Just a thought that would help with the split the team concern.

Guys - just a quick point.  I don't want to be overbearing.   If you guys strongly feel OOCly that you want to try one RP path instead of another, please talk about it OOCly?  I am just trying to ensure we have a firm direction but don't want to squash people's ideas in favour of my own - something I'm rather concerned about atm :(

Path chosen doesn't much matter to me.  I go where the story takes me ;)

I think he is amused that you keep wanting to "ambush" the imperials which will likely get us all killed.

PS: I feel IC and OOCly to follow a path, that is why I am talking about it IC.  I don't think I want to ignore the chance of RP to discuss it OOC.

Chiming in to remind you that this adventure is entirely off the rails. You can go wherever you please and attempt anything you want. I don't have a "correct" answer waiting for you to find it.

OK.  So long as no one is upset OOCly, I'll happily debate ICly :-)

As for the Ambush... to be fair, that didn't cross my mind at all.  I figured you guys would ace any fight! (you think I'm over-confident in you guys?) :-)

I think you might be overconfident in the GMs hesitation to kill us :P

In reply to Caddanra 'Caddy' Manitu (msg # 450):

Agree w/ Forim.   :p

How did the ship combat go?   Oh yes, our ship was destroyed.  :0

The problem is not in our abilities but that the empire is stronger with more forces.   Only a foolish player believes the GM won't throw more than what we can handle if we make foolish choices.   The empire has more speeder bikes and possible walkers with greater firepower and more forces than we do.  We also can't get resupplied with personnel and gear, so what we have now is all that we have.   The Empire is not in the same boat as we are.  W should not take chances that are not in our favor.

Maybe!

But at the same time, I'm not super keen on risking the lives of an entire people just because we weren't willing to make a hard choice.

To be fair, given how the Imperials here have been described, I'd be rather disappointed if  a link was found by them and they didn't simply wipe out these people - heck, they destroyed Alderaan just to prove a point - never mind Jedha!

*sigh* :-)

I guess from my perspective I'm seeing 100% death of a people vs a *chance* of success of us killing our hunters in an ambush and getting the knowledge from our contact without the Imperials seeing the link.   Of course, it could go horribly wrong in both those hopes....

I'll spell it out then.

The following boarded the ship:
Caddy
Forim Luk
Roger
Xyklo
Kraken
Zeic
Jurell Delgar
Jospi Renning
Hypno R2-E3

Who is with the group now?  If you reduce who is with the group now from the original, several members died aboard the ship but more importantly, the one you had the argument with and said all would be well .... IS DEAD.

Muwhahaha Hahahahaha

That is what I found so humorous.

While the player may have posted leaving ... I don't remember the character ever leaving, so they should have still been aboard the ship.   :p

Yes, yes, player attrition and meta-blending of OoC. I wasn't sure what to do with them so I ignored it.

Can we assume that you guys are taking advantage of the Geik hospitality for the moment, while you discuss strategy? Are you going into the hut they cleared for you?

Clohin are a type of insect that hatch annually. Their hatching and swarming is seen as a sign by the Geik to begin their mating journey. The Visiting Voice told you a little about them when she was describing wildlife in the area.

Oh, yeah, I remember now.  tks
