Re: OOC Thread IV

In reply to The Marshall (msg # 698):

I think Brother Edgar is going to try and preempt the bad guys (who go on Red Joker). Is anyone else? A Quickness check is required to succeed. Sorry, I hoped to get this turn done today but I have to not only brush up on combat but anti-vehicle combat and miracles.

Thanks,

Tony

Re: OOC Thread IV

Sorry - I tried to read back through and find it, but - who is on the hoverbike? Is it just one of the same type of bad guys in the muscle cars?

Just wanted to check to make sure I wasn't the one being waited on for something?

Whenever there's a pause I always feels like its me....

The apologies are mine. I missed this for some reason. You didn't get a good look at the guy, but you think it's Kargo the Anti-Templar due to the massive battleaxe slung across his back.

If everyone's done their actions for the turn there really isn't a need for another Quickness check. The surviving larger vehicles disappeared into the smoke, back the way they came. The hoverbike zoomed past you, heading for the river.

Thanks,

Tony

Ah okay.

Nope. You guys stalled things a bit with the anti-vehicle talk and I was waiting to see who was on the hoverbike. Should I go ahead and do things or just let the turn end since I probably can't stop Kargo.

In reply to Peter Firecrow (msg # 703):

Sure, go ahead and take a parting shot!

It would also make sense to have him hit the deck when he was taking fire. If his head is up and exposed then (to be realistic) I'll have to check if he catches any of the incoming fire on the technical.

Thanks,

Tony

Re: OOC Thread IV

In reply to Increase Trask (msg # 707):

OK, that's 46 points total, divided by 5 (for Light class weapon) for 9 structural points of vehicular damage. (If the shot hits a passenger they take full damage.).

I'll let Peter clarify if he wants to risk a shot.

Thanks,

Ah. Okay, sure. Peter likes his head exactly where it's at already.

Ok, all the surviving bad guys are gone. A few escaped into the smoke screen, one, your target, is fleeing in the direction of the river.

Re: OOC Thread IV



Is the one, the target, heading towards the river on the bike in Big Damn Rifle Range?

Is he going the opposite direction of the cars?  Or is he going cross country into the woods?  Can the HUMVEE or the truck follow him at all?

I assume the rig and smoke is blocking the way to chase the cars?

In reply to Brother Edgar (msg # 711):

I'll say at this point he is still (barely) in rifle range. He is going down the old freeway towards the river.

Re: OOC Thread IV

Okay - so two completely separate things going on. Are we staying to help Jack (or are some staying to do so) or are we chasing the hoverbike? Or splitting up?

I think Peter, Jane, and Chricton are chasing the hoverbike and the rest staying with Jack.

Re: OOC Thread IV

Whoops, wrong thread. Reposted.

Hey everyone!

This has been a great game, I've enjoyed running it immensely. Things have been slow as work increases for me, my apologies.

That said my original vision of taking the Posse through adventures (I think) "Air Force One is Missing" and then "The Unity". That may have been a little ambitious!

After Ian died I was intending on at least wrapping up his subplot: recovering Rowan's hoverbike and taking out Kargo the Anti-Templar, then returning to Junkyard. Then either wrap up the game completely or go on hiatus.

That said, there are two logical courses here. One is to follow the latter course above w/r to finishing Rowan's subplot. This could happen really soon! Or if you guys would like to play a little longer we are (not coincidentally) in a good spot to run "Hell or High Water". After that we could bring it home to Junkyard and wrap it up, or embark on further adventures.

What are all your thoughts? I'm ok with continuing on with Hell or High Water. However if you want a nice wrap we are in a good position to do that as well!

Thanks,

Tony

In reply to Increase Trask (msg # 446):

I'm here as long as you are willing to run Tony. Ian's death wasn't easy. And I know took the wind out of both of our games. But like I said I'm still willing to run as long as you are. I just have to much on my plate to actually run a game.


Peter Firecrow:
With all the changes of players and characters, I might like a change of character at some point, but so long as YOU Tony are enjoying running and everyone else is in, I'm in also. I just don't want you to continue running the game if it's not fun for you. Or we could change things up and reboot to do a different storyline and characters if you need it to be fresh. Despite the slowness of the game at times, you are a great GM and I'm happy to hang out with you guys.

The Brother, Abides.

I took my break from the game for a few years already.  I'm good.

As for what we do next, we've been trying to catch Kargo...  Go get that guy!

Ed is depleted power wise and has a severely injured man (that he doesn't have the power points to save likely....) to tend to.

Happy to continue for as long as it remains fun for all involved.


I like it! This is all pretty positive.

Ok, at the very least I'll run Hell or High Water.

Most likely I'll start a new thread.

Re: OOC Thread IV

Soooooo....I was going to post Peter saying that they should keep pursuing, but that leaves half of the party back at the humvee. So I guess they should regroup and go after that dangling/fleeing plot hook together later?
