Starting tomorrow, I'll be out of town for the long weekend. I might have internet access, but at best it will be spotty and only from my tablet. So don't expect long speeches or anything like that. :-)

So, I'm waiting to see if I can move some allied Wild Cards out of my direct control (Shanghai Reggie, Calamity Jane, and Seth Bullock) before I update the "Big Trouble in Celestial Alley" thread.

I'm waiting for response posts on the "Whistle Blows" thread, but since Matthew Broaddale seems to have dropped the game (he hasn't logged on since the 7th), I'm beginning to think that particular adventure is not going to get very far.

On "The Greatest Show On Earth," I'm sort of expecting The Professor to respond to the appearance of his nemesis. If you just want me to get into the meat of the act there, I can (I expect a fairly long narration in that case).

On the Wicasa Council thread, it's all Player Actions from here on in (TW's player, then Mama Avery, then Moses). If you need something from me (a map of the remaining baddies, for instance), I can post one up, but let me know.

My time right now is abit limited - but if you're just looking for someone handling a few hands during a fight, I'll take control of one of the NPC.

Whistle Blows: We could give Matt another day or two and see if he comes back on.
I didn't announce my vacation plans two weeks ago because I thought the game would go on hold anyway. Might be the same situation with him.
If you want to wrap up that prelude-thread though, that's fine by me too.

Greatest Show: Waiting to see what's happening next. :-)

@Moses:

Which NPC did you want? The Marshal or the Martial Artist? As for Matt, he did mention in PM that his posting would be somewhat erratic, as he had suffered the loss of a friend recently. When we went on our brief hiatus, he may have gone to deal with personal issues related to that.

The question is, do you (and you, Mama Avery) want to press on that current storyline without Matt being there?

@Eagles Floating:

Yeah, the resolution on the map isn't great. We are currently about halfway into the round

1. There is 1 member of the Black Regiment (the skulls) standing adjacent to Eagles Floating and Mama Avery (who is strange to Eagles Floating, but is an ally). Eagles Floating has a spear, but he currently doesn't have it drawn and ready for use. If he were to draw his spear, he could gain the benefit of the spear's +1 to Reach, which would allow him to move 1 space away from the dead guy without provoking an opportunity attack (any further, and the guy would get an attack, since he's got a mounted Bayonet ready). of course, if he were to draw his spear, he'd suffer a -2 MAP on any other actions (if any) he were to attempt in the round.

2. All the people who need healing are on the other side of the screen, more than Eagles Floating could reach within an action. Mama Avery is next to him, Art and his posse are slightly further north, and Rabbit is surrounded by baddies even further to the north (but has been holding her own against the monsters and undead Raven's called up). West of him is the crazy black preacher man, also getting ganged-up on but currently not in need of healing.

3. The brave inside the Command Radius (the orange squares) and the two braves closest to the Command Radius in the west-by-shouthwest corner of the map are the ones under your command. You could easily have one brave leap in to help Moses and 2 gang up on the Black Regiment soldier EF and Mama Avery are next to.

Oh, I'd be fine with the marshal.
And I think we could continue the thread with the witches, too. What do you think, Mama?

Alrighty, I'm adding the Marshal to your list of characters.

Is Mama Avery on hold, or was that a mistake?

It was a mistake. Mama Avery is at 4, while Moses & Co are on 6.
