Groovy.

As well, while a "Sponge Bob" reference is anachronistic I figured I could roll with it and incorporate it into local lore instead of making a retcon or ignoring it.

Oh, see what you did there.  Funny!

I can see the parents telling the stories of "SPONGE BOB". Don't forget the stories of the knights with blades of energy as sen in "REIGN OF FIRE"

In reply to Captain Ly Cong Kim (msg # 622):

Yep! Loved that scene in "Reign of Fire".

My wife and I recently saw the stage play "Mr. Burns", which is a post-apocalyptic retelling of "The Simpsons" episode "Cape Feare" to pass the time and amuse themselves.

The play begins some months after civilisation has collapsed in a nameless holocaust with some survivors sitting around a campfire remembering a favourite Simpsons episode. It ends generations later with a stage performance (a play-within-a-play) where Cape Feare has become over time and countless retellings an allegorical tale of the fall of man, loss, survival and redemption.

Probably the most laid-back song about nuclear war until "(Nothing But) Flowers".

Sorry about Andy's absence....

Been a rough/busy period.

I will post for Andy today!!!!

In reply to Andy Maxwell Flasch (msg # 626):

Sad to hear things were busy, glad to hear you're back in the saddle!

Tony

Sorry for going quiet, playing catch up now.

Cymon,.

In reply to Tim Charles White (msg # 628):

No problem, I am editing my post a little as well.

Thanks,

Tony

Just looking for an update: are we all waiting for a linguistics check or some input from Jimmy?

Also, is the an actual shore party? At one point it looked like everyone except Kim and Elliot were going ashore but I see the description puts just two people on the beach.

In reply to Elliot Charles Pendergrass (msg # 630):

Oh crap, are we waiting on a post from me?
I got embroiled in the rolls.

In reply to Elliot Charles Pendergrass (msg # 630):

Jimmy has the results of his rolls, Lee can post if he likes or I cam just move things along.

Originally, Jimmy and Leaf went ashore to ask permission to anchor offshore of the Makah territorial waters. Someone can borrow Leaf's kayak to go ashore and retrieve the Zodiac to start offloading more personnel before you know the results of their, er, pow-wow.

Thanks,

Tony

Thanks for the clarification!

In reply to Andy Maxwell Flasch (msg # 633):

Captain Kim and Elliot are staying on the boat. Possibly Tim, as he would be quite used to sleeping in a small vessel from his time in the Royal Marines.

The camp kits each have 2x 4-person dome tents for the 8 remaining ashore. This would be fairly cramped. Your poncho/shelter-half can be linked to form a 2-person tent, or a fully-enclosed 1-person tent. So you don't need to stay in the tents.

Thanks,

Tony

I am confused, we have two camp kits... so 4x 4 person domes is cramped?

In reply to James (Jimmy) Gerrold MacGuire (msg # 635):

Sorry, if you use 2x dome tents that would be cramped. If you use all 4, obviously not!

Thanks,

Tony

I'm a bit confused.  Who is in the party for this mission?

In reply to Mahalina Rae Powell (msg # 637):

1. Jimmy
   
2. Malina
   
3. Elliot
   
4. Andy
   
5. Captain Kim
   
6. Tim
   
7. Jenna
   
8. Bobby
   
9. Tina Marie
   
10. Leaf

Ten total. I haven't heard from Mel for a while so Jenna is an NPC.

Thanks,

Tony

Elliot and Capt'n Kim are staying on the ship; the other eight are the shore party, as I understand it.

In reply to Elliot Charles Pendergrass (msg # 639):

There are 8 personnel. What, if any, are the guard shifts?

As you may know, I volunteer at the errata coordinator for Timeline Games. This game is a good way for me to go through the rules to pinpoint errors or clarifications. So my thanks to you all! If possible I will ask Timeline to credit all of you for helping me work through the rules, should a revised edition come about.

As well, a new Morrow Project adventure, "Project File Daidlos" is about to be released. Another adventure, "Predatory Skies", is in playtest. With a bit of arm-twisting my sit-down group has agreed to be in the playtest, although we are getting something of a late start!

Thanks,

Tony

I have a copy of Daidlos on pre-order.  But if you are thinking of using any of it here, I'll leave it in the shrink wrap!

In reply to Andy Maxwell Flasch (msg # 641):

That's cool, I hadn't strictly planned on running further adventures in this area, but the PCs might make it down to SoCal at some point.

Mainly I wanted to apologise for the game slowing as what little time I have goes to prep-work. As well to complicate things my rig blew up and I've been struggling along on a crappy laptop.

Thanks!

In reply to James (Jimmy) Gerrold MacGuire (msg # 635):

How many tents are there? I assume 3.

Thanks,

Tony

In reply to Project Director (msg # 643):

If three is sufficient, yes.
