Great, I'm boosting mental up to 2, which should grant a +1 modifier if I understand it right.


Correct.

Re: OOC - 12/16

Can't find TN and cost for Streak LRR.  Is it TN 8+ Cost 60,000cb per ton (Standard TN +2, cost x 2, 1/2 ton per roll - same rules as Streak SRM)?

Correct.  So you can purchase up to 1.5 tons for each successful roll.


(Dont forget to multiply the cost for ammo by .4 to 'install' it into the ammo bay, since youre doing work on the ammo bay to convert it to use the new ammo.)

Re: OOC - 12/16

If i werent so broke i'd be interested in the LML, unfortunately i have to plead poverty.

I can afford ER SLs though, would like to pick up a pair, offering 50k cb (list) for two if anyone has any they're looking to shed.

Re: OOC - 12/16

uhm.... New players havent been added to the roll list yet, mostly because i'm waiting to finalize character sheets to determine modifiers.

If you have a complete character sheet, give me a poke here or ask your unit commander for help to determine adjustments to tn.

or... you can look it up here.

Re: OOC - 12/16

Going offline for a bit, was mucking about overhauling the Infantry to make use of Total War rules.

LRM infantry included, but using Total War rules for infantry, so a 'random' number of them hit each turn now which makes them less deadly.

Re: OOC - 12/16

If it's on the list that Kitten already has I can help with figuring out the TN's for anyone that wants the help.

Also if you look in the Repair Bay thread and scroll down to message #79 that Adam Carlyle made you can see how he made his rolls in the dice roller.  Make sure to always list in the rollers 'reason for' what you are rolling for otherwise Kitten will either consider it a failed roll even if it was a success or ignore it completely :)

Re: OOC - 12/16

*ponders*

Right, so it looks like my fourth is missing at this point, so i'm down to a unit of three, not terrible since we can always pull Freelancers in to make mission requirements, but we have space for talent it seems.


Willing to go on record to extend offer of membership at this time to
Michel Dubois and/or Reyvak Kellosti.  We're at the size at the moment where we can take them both in and function fine.

Re: OOC - 12/16

Alright, my rolls are done.  Don't worry about the power loader.  I did roll for salamander HSs, so hopefully those are still in the game.

Re: OOC - 12/16

Power Loaders in any shape or form, not available.

With Omni being invaded, they wont have the Power Loaders to spare to sell, so those are off the market.

Kitten, have you considered creating a Want Ads thread where players can list what they have for sale and what they want to purchase?

Done here in OOC.

First time were working through a down period with these rules, so i'm not sure yet, most of it's being done locally, and theres discussion done on the unit level.

Re: OOC - 12/16

Wanted to stop in and say hello.

For now, I'm just lurking.  Life is too hectic for me and I'm involved in too many things to be able to devote the time necessary to be able to play.  At some point in the future (hopefully) everything will settle down and I'll be able to start playing.

About me:

I've been playing Battletech since the late 80's.  Spent 6 years in the Army and 4 years in JROTC.  I've studied military history and tactics since I was in high school (41 pushing 42 now).  Personally, I'm a bit of a jack of all trades.  I've got 5 kids and an odd sense of humor.  I know a lot about special operations, while I was nothing more than commo while I was in, I've known 2 SEALS, a Green Beret, and a bunch of Rangers (both tabs and scrolls) over the years.

What I'll most likely play:

Light to Medium scout/recon force with a focus on asymmetrical warfare.  So, yes, I am one of those rare BTech players that actually LIKE Lights and Meds, vehicles, and infantry.  And Arty, jeez I just LOVE Arty (the Infantryman's best friend).

Sounds like you should fit in. Campaign is based on light mediums.

Re: OOC - 12/16

Current numbers have...

The Ironswords with six.

The Lancers with five.

The Brigade with four.

First message of this thread shows more information.

Waiting on Reyvak to settle in some where, and Damien for character generation.

Re: OOC - 12/16

New Player Note

Keep in mind you get three availability rolls for character generation, and were in the middle of bookkeeping at the moment so you get another three.  (total of six)

This is to help get you on more even footing with more veteran players

Re: OOC - 12/16

(UGH)

I Feel like an Arms dealer.

Right as a Freelancer, my allowed equipment storage is turning finite so all the toys that i've bought need to go somewhere.

This is what i have available for sale.  Modest mark up on everything to reflect the auction cost that i coughed up.  First come first serve.

7.5 tons of Ferro Fib.  Sell it off for 25kcb per ton.  All sold to Hassan for 187 500cb.

1.5 tons of Endo Steel.  Selling at 100k cb per 1/2 ton.  Limit 1/2 ton per character.
0.5 tons sold to Akarian

(2) Streak LRR6s.  Selling it off for 65kcb each
Loaned/leased out to Olaf

(1) Streak SRM4.  Selling it off for 105k cb

2.5 tons of Streak SRM.  Selling it off for 60kcb per ton.

(Whatever doesnt sell i'll just have to cough up Inventory space to hold.)
