In reply to Thal Zann (msg # 101):

As long it can carry all of you, it's fine

Heh.  Okay, scanned through everything but I might have missed something.  I eliminated any vehicle that was Restricted, required more than 2 crew (and carried less than 6 total), anything outright military (non-civilian) or was a high end/luxury type of vehicle (over 60k iirc).

Airspeeders
Civilian Airspeeder (F&D corebook pg 254, EotE corebook pg 248)- 1 Pilot, 1 to 6 passengers, 10,000 credists/3, Comment- boring but it flies with a maximum altitude of 1 km.  Odd that there are not a lot of 'flying' vehicles that meet my criteria above that lend themselves to a adventurer all-purpose role.

Guardian 5E Personal Defense Speeder (EotE Dangerous Covenants pg 62-63)- 1 pilot, 5 passengers, 20,000 credits, Comments- 300 km maximum altitude, armed, comes with a emergency escape 2 person speeder bike


Landspeeders
A-A3 Dray Light Speeder Truck (F&D corebook pg 255)- 1 pilot, 2 passengers in the cab, up to 8 in the bed, 7,000 credits/2, Comment- like the Civilian Airspeeder, no thrills and likely fills the same role as a Toyota Truck does in 3rd world war torn shitholes do in the RL;-)

A-A8 Backcountry Speeder Truck (F&D Savage Spirits pg 54)- 1 pilot, 5 passengers, 8,500 credits/4, Comment- Max altitude 5 meters, gives a boost to survival

M90 Ranger (EotE No Disintegrations pg 56-57)- 1 pilot, 6 passengers, 19,500 credits/4, Comment- 10 meter max altitude, 'frontier vehicle', better stats than most & 4 hard points

Trast A-A5 Heavy Speeder Truck (EotE corebook pg 250)- 1 pilot, 2 co-pilots(?), 25 passengers, 10,000 credits/2, Comment- 3 meter maximum altitude, included because it is the baseline for the A-A5M

A-A5M Emergency Response Vehicle (F&D Disciples of Harmony pg 58)- 1 pilot, 1 medic and/or medical droid, 1 liaison officer (?), 6 passengers, 10,000 credits/5, Comment- No operating altitude provided but meant to operate in rough situations

Baktoid UH-XH Heavy Work Platform (EotE Special Modifications pg 59-60)- 1 pilot, 1 crane operator, 24 passengers, 30,000 credits/5, Comment- Odd but fits criteria, 500 meter max altitude (but classified as landspeeder), techie vehicle

Sorosuub Portable Store KRI-80 ((EotE Special Modifications pg 60)- 1 pilot, 5 passengers, 60,000 credits/6, Comment- another odd techie vehicle but can fill the 'party RV' role, Max altitude 10 meters

Superhaul Model II Cargo Skiff (EotE Far Horizons pg 52)- 1 pilot, 8 passengers (without cargo), 8,000 credits/3, Comment- 50 meters max altitude

9400 Grand Wanderer (F&D Unlimited Power pg 57)- 1 pilot, 8 passengers, 35,000 credits, Comment- probably the most comfortable RV/'gypsy caravan' on the list

Arrow-23 Landspeeder (AoR Forged in Battle pg 58-59)- 1 pilot, 1 co-pilot/gunner, 4 passengers, 10,800 credits/3, Comment- no weapons in baseline model, 4 hardpoints, 5 meters maximum altitude

Walkers
AT-HCT (F&D corebook pg 256)- 1 pilot, 6 passengers, 3,000 credits/3, Comment- seems like another 'frontier' vehicle with a single open-topped bed (meaning crew & passengers always exposed to the elements)

All Terrain Exploration Transport (F&D Savage Spirits pg 56)- 1 pilot, 1 navigation/comms operator, 4 passengers, 5,000 credits/4, Comment- Exploration vehicle with unusually high number of hard points at 6.



Wheeled & Tracked Vehicles
Personnel Carrier (EotE corebook pg 252)- 1 pilot, 1 co-pilot, 4-15 passengers, 3,000/2, Comment- eh, it fits the criteria but the would recommend tracked version only for a little more all-terrain capability

Normally, a new group gets a vehicle/ship up to 120,000 credits in value. If a vehicle is less than that, can the vehicle have additions and used hard points at start as long as it does not go over this value?

These are the two options. One team will get the Guardian, and one will get the Exploration Transport.

So, to decide which gets which, we'll do it as follows:

Each Team needs to discuss and decide on how much Obligation they are willing to take on to get the Guardian Speeder. The team that offers to take on the most Obligation, will be the winner. I will give you guys until Sunday Jan 2nd, 8 AM (GMT +2) to make your offer.

The team with the lesser offer will take on the same amount of Obligation as the winning team, but will get the Exploration Transport with 3 Hard Points installed, up to a total value of 16,000 credits.

I’ll confer with Red team, but what if we volunteer to take the Walker?

Red Team has unanimously voted to take the Walker as long as there is no objection from the other team since the bidding was for the airspeeder.

Blue Team is super interested in that airspeeder, and is happy to have done business with Red Team. <3

Ok, I added 10 Obligation to each team, for the vehicle.

Red Team, you may deliberate on what upgrades you want for your Walker.

Now that it's Blue Monday, and especially blue since Betty White is gone before her 100th birthday, how's everyone getting along?

Not bad. Going back to work tomorrow.

Same here. Short work week in the US.

Good to go here as well

Will shoot a post to both threads later today

Are we still playing?

GM has been out for over 2 weeks with no warning, so it's not looking good.

I'm still here but no sign of the DM. My fingers are crossed but it isn't looking good.

Ditto, not looking good. Hope things are going alright.

Yeah I'm still on standby mode

Stay on target…stay on target…

Almost there.

in this analogy I think darth vader came and blew up this thing. If only one of us had played Luke Skywalker.

You mean Han Solo? He's the one that saved Luke from Vader.

Yes, in the movies. But this one has failed. Squad leader is dead and there is no luke skywalker to win the day.

GM has been gone over a month now, so I think we can stick a fork in this game.

Agreed unfortunately.
