Forager!

Mapper, I suppose.  But we'll need a fireproof map.

Otherwise, Lookout.

lookout or mapper I guess (+5 perception here, my best among the relevant skills)

Well Bedlam's current alpha-mutation is "Know-It-All" which gives him +10 to his(otherwise miserable) Science roll. Unless someone can beat that I suggest we keep Bedlam on Mapper until the next alpha-flux.

OK, I have added the Dabber Lair to the map thread.

Now you need to make a couple of choices. First, what's you goal?
i) explore the suberbs
ii) push on to the South River
iii) make for the dabber lair

Secondly, you need to decide about your mount and vehicle. Taking them or not, I mean.

I say we clear a section before we bring in the heavy equipment. The burbs might have a house we can use to base our truck, but we need to know if anything is worth haulig out.

I'm for heading to the burbs.

Options 1-3 all involve heading to the burbs :)

I am for exploring the suburbs.

Sounds like we are pretty much in accord on exploring the suburbs.

Any reason not to bring the possum? Gonna cost us feed whether it comes or stays.

What do we know about Dabbers? Do we want to try setting up a trade deal so that we can get'm off the Mayor's hitlist and make a little cash for ourselves? Do we wanna chop off their tails and collect the bounty? Do we want to construct some counterfeit tails and collect the bounty?

In reply to Flora (msg #71):

I think we leave the truck for now - part of exploring the 'burbs will involve scouting a safe path for driving. If we find a safe parking spot, so much the better.

BTW the possum will work if you want to bring it, but the cart suffers from the same problems as the pickup.

Also, Merlot can exchange his exhausted omega tech at the bartermart for, say, one more half litre of water for everyone, plus containers.

I just need the final word about the cart them I'm ready to open the new thread :)

I think bring 'em both (or neither).

I know, I didn't actually help the discussion by creating a different option :)

I'm actually for taking neither initially, assuming we can trust the locals with them...

Merlot doesn't have another use for the exhausted omega tech, so let's go ahead and trade it. Let me know if I need to make an IC post to do this.

I'm for bringing the opossum - an extra pack animal makes it easier to carry our supplies and water.

And leave the cart - same as the truck - we want mobility now, and we're scouting routes.

So we have:

Mapper (Bedlam). Relevant skill: Science or Perception
Forager (Flora). Relevant skill: Nature
Scavenger (Multi-Roach). Relevant skill: Nature or Science
Lookout (Ordus, Merlot, S'kaar). Relevant skill: Perception

Everyone make your rolls please, I will soon be posting in-game.

BTW please make two rolls each, one for each 6 hours. The lookout is an important role BTW it helps you to spot new areas.

Combat map is up. Normally I don't care about Init order, but this time please wait for Ordus to post then I will post the porkers' actions.
