Yes, it's getting a bit crowded, but we'll see how things shake out.

Are those ship shares in addition to the 2 shares she already has?
Can ship shares be divided up into quarter ship shares?

What type of parts and equipment will be needed to repair the J drive?

Normally, a share represents 1/10th of the total value of the ship, but you can divide it up any way you want. It just needs a bank autorization, usually just a formality. The bank doesn't usually want to deal with payments smaller than 1/10th, so the caveat if you do subdivide is that you still have to pay them off in 1/10th increments, whether that's 20 shares now or 100 shares.

Yes, those shares are in addition to the ones she already has. It's a standard investor's clause that the survivor gets the other's shares, unless some other arrangement is made (such as the shares going to an inheritor).


According to the engineering diagnostics, there's nothing wrong with the Jump drive. It just doesn't work.

You might ask Shamus about it, since he was the engineer.

Should we post skills here on in character?

UPP is all your attribute scores from 1-14, with 10-14 using Letters A-E. ?

Yup.

I find the new thread somewhat confusing. There is a debate going on about the psi-guy (after a night of sleeping in the same ship?) and there is engineering.

Can't we have location-specific threads (common area - bridge - X's room - engineering - sickbay)?

Back home and will be able to resume more regular posting tomorrow.  Quick question first: was it common knowledge amongst those serving on the ship before the hijacking that Luise is an owner?  I ask so that I can portray Nate's next moves appropriately, especially given the "take charge" actions of some of the other characters.

Thanks!

Sure, it was common knowledge on the ship that Luise was a co-owner/investor.

Is the ship in default of his loan repayments?
Or just hijacked by Ritter and in a bad spot of trouble.

The 'original' owner wanted to get the ship for free so hired Ritter to jack it in 1st game. Then he'd pick it up here leaving the builder whistling. Presumably any partners were meant to get left behind or practice vacc breathing.

Steve, Gahler and Kraig would have no knowledge of Luise, the crew. We just knew Ritter would have his own jackers. He also had a rep for ducking out early and dumping his crew, though they did get paid.


But StarMaster has added his own embellishments as it's now his game.  So he needs fill us in on details.

Luise - you may wish to check your UPP index. Drex has Vacc Suit, and why does he only get one + for Persuade 3? ;)

Oh just for the record, ARC never posted his stats, probably stormed off mad or something!!!

I missed the vacc suit, I'll add it

I used skill + common attributes:

just names for 0 and 1
+ for  2 or 3 and
++ if it was 4+

This isn't supposed to be an exact ranking. It just shows who is the guy for which skill.

Posted now. Just been busy.

Can I suggest that those of us on the bridge use the Dust Runner Bridge thread for the conversation, since it's been created by Starmaster for just such use?  I think there's still a combination going on under the Lanth: New Day thread, which is a bit confusing.

Either that or agree that the Lanth: New Day thread is dedicated to the bridge conversation and scrap the other thread.

Mara and Kara were characters from the earlier version of the game, but I don't have skills for Mara. Since those players haven't returned, the two characters will probably go their own way once the ship reaches somewhere reasonable.

In the meantime, you can assume the two of them have any skills you might need. Specficially, Mara had tech skills and Kara had stealth skills.

Kara was a thief with skills for entry and stealth. Also a disgraced Noble.

Marra an ex-navy pilot, not as skilled as Gahler or Kraig.

Hello folks, nice to meet you fellas...Ex marine, and Free trader here... Hope to see yo guys soon...say very soon.

Hey Roland, welcome.

What is the plan now with the APC?  Are we going to pump sea water into the ship's tanks and try to salvage something from the APC?

Depends on the shuttle design. If it has tanks we might be able to remove them.
If we wish to make some storage tanks we can use the metal armour to weld a temporary tank in the cargo area.
Lots of depends.

Marc Miller is up to something again, but this time is a Traveller movie.
