Hmm, my character idea wasn't specifically Imperial military, I'd have to come up with something else if we got with the Cruiser campaign.

  The "Element Class Cruisers" package includes the Naval Campaign 'core' book. No adventure-specific spoilers there. The adventures themselves are separate items. #1 and #2 are already out; #3 is due out in a month or two.


  Intelligence Officer would work as a position. It'd be Tier 3. Gunner, Engineer, and Marines are Tier 2 because they're in charge of three of the four crew 'departments', the fourth being T0/T1 Flight(Bridge).

I'd be up for Gunnery Officer, Marine Detachment Commander, or Ship's Senior NCO.  Something with a little grit.  Rank ordered, I'd say my 1st choice is Gunnery, 2nd is Marine, 3rd is SNCO.  Not sure if we should roll and select based on that, or just everyone throw out a claim and wait a day to see if anyone else wants to roll off for that position?

I would say 1 Chief Engineer, 2 Medical Officer, 3 Chief Pilot

Hello everybody, and thanks for adding me. I'm French so English is not my first language and I apologize in advance for my mistakes and bizarre language twists. So my character is human (am not too familiar with aliens) and coming from a backwater place with it's own language.

I'll go along the Navy campaign
I'm voting for PraguePride as cap'tin :)
I'll take any position not wanted by anyone else - as I have no preference. I'll happily let the GM fill the tiers and assign a position to my PC, and then I'll create it - thanks Syrris for the rules!

Syrris is looking out for people by helping post rules and in my mind, that's exactly what you want in a 2IC.  So Syrris gets my vote for XO (presuming he/she wants it)!

Given my rolls, I'd like to be

1) Master at Arms
2) Chief Pilot
3) Bridge Engineering Officer

Oooh. I rolled well enough I could be a Baron if I so desired...I kind of like the sound of that.

Nobility fits well with being a high ranking officer in the Imperial Navy.  Good choice.

  Captain (the rank, not the role) gives a Soc bonus. Don't have to be noble for it - being a high-ranked officer is prestigious in its own right!

Muster out and increase SOC as well if you have a +1 to the right benefit rolls.  The implication being - becoming unemployed from the Navy might make you a member of aristocracy.  ;)

You don't get mustering out benefits with the Navy rules because you're still in the navy.

I know, I've got the rules.  ;)

  It isn't stated, but it's probably fair to claim a Benefit roll that's granted by one of your events if it's something you can actually have and use while still in the service. (Cash, TAS, ally/contact, +stat, implant, personal gear, etc.)

I like the way you think Syrris!

I added a few more tables to the game thread.

  PraguePride wants the Captain's chair.

  Anyone else for it?

  If not, who wants to go for XO?

  (I can if no one else does, but that's going to be a REALLY odd fit to what I've just rolled...)

How about this for a portrait?

In reply to PraguePride (msg # 49):

Sweet, everyone needs a portrait and a short description. Thanks.

Forget character descriptions when you can have a sweet formal portrait instead :D

Hey! Watch that! ;-) height weight hair color UPP

In reply to Baron Thenroy Reziilka (msg # 51):

Aye, Captain, very sweet.  Doesn't look like you are about to take my order.  Nope, not at all.

Also, I take my steak medium rare, with either a nice Malbec or a Cab Sauvignon.

  Description would depend somewhat on your rank/role. And species!


  So far we have...
 
  Captain  (Thenroy?)
  XO       (Syrris/Anyone?)
  Gunnery  (Sidare)
  Engineer (Anyone?)
  Marines  (Anyone?)
 

That is BARON Thenroy...<ahem>

CAPTAIN Thenroy. ;-)
