Bit of an off day, really.  We're somewhat more chatty than this.  Of course, it does vary by day as well.

 At this time several units have finished their mission/contracts and are between patching up damaged mechs,and doing the book keeping for the unit. Kitty is working on experience and upgrades and switching mechs.

Re: OOC - 12/16

Pretty much.

My crew just finished a messy raiding mission while the other crew is finishing theirs up.

Then we boost off this planet to return back to our paycheck's planet where we think that someone is attacking it and we're supposed to help defend.

Re: OOC - 12/16

Any questions you have speak up :)

Any story reasons to bring you on board can be created between you and the outfit you end up with.  Kitten gives fairly liberal reign towards building background putting out RP in between and during missions.  Some of the background may never be touched except in conversation with your lancemates, or if Kitten likes something in in she might even add in some elements into what is going on if it relates to the greater story she's telling.

Re: OOC - 12/16

Its nothing that big, its mostly me asking if it was important at all for me to find out what house made the valkyrie, had control over a planet with no real big battles, and owned that planet from 3025 and 3030...and to note it was the fed suns

Re: OOC - 12/16

It makes for good commentary and building up how your pilot interacts not only with your fellow pilots but in missions.  Capec is Fed Suns and stays Fed with no notable battles...at least according to Sarna.  Valks are made by Corean Enterprises and Vicore both in Fed territory.

Re: OOC - 12/16

I ended up with all that info really...minus what kind of planet Capec was...so i went with grassland type...but i just cant believe the ammount of depth this universe has...and what i've seen is so...small...

Re: OOC - 12/16

So you're looking at either the Ironswords or the Lancers eh?

Why?

Re: OOC - 12/16

the first reasoning is that I'm not a leader, I'm a follower...so making my own squad is out...secondly i wanted to be able to interact with others and not just lone wolf it most of the time, which to me would feel rather...empty without constant allies i know have my back...and three i want to actually do some good...sounds about right to me...

Kitten:
Quentin is an alt and may not be permanently recruited into a unit.

(Thumps Quentin)

That's like the fourth time i've had to tell you that.


I'm not looking to be permanently recruited, just looking to get to play at some point, Quentin sat out M12 and M13 :)

Re: OOC - 12/16

That is the fate of most alts actually.

Adam's first chance to play was this last mission (only cause he was a 45 ton mech with both hand actuators to help loot) and you saw him get blown to hell by that damn SRM carrier.  Lucky none of that went internal...

Re: OOC - 12/16

That is very true :P

Oh the fate of anyone playing with ammo and not having CASE.

But look at me Olaf...I got blown up and came back with a better mech even if I became a worse pilot and person.

Re: OOC - 12/16

Maybe unexpected but not really unsurprising.  It was an Urbanmech with a ton of AC/20 ammo in a relatively empty torso.

Hey now...

It took multiple missile hits to the rear torso to get a critical roll to actually hit it.

It was just bad luck you blew up, but at least your still kicking around.

Re: OOC - 12/16

There were a few anxious moments when we weren't sure how it was going to go down...

It's never fun watching your team-mate blow up from an (un)lucky crit so early in the campaign.
