Haha. Phones aren't like iphones, they are more like walkie talkies. Yes you have one.

Also bank accounts and credit cards work like they do now, where you can pay and the money leaves your account immediately, but when you get paid it takes a whole friggin day.

Ah, I only realized now, rules day the cortical stack provides HUD and smartphone functions. So no need for a handheld terminal then.

Ok ok. Sounds good.

You still there?

Yeah.

Sorry for the wait! I think I overcomplicate my posts in my head and it keeps me from posting, but then I realize I just gotta start writing and the ideas will come.

From experience, it's much better to just wing it and see what happens than overthink. Even more so in a game like this one, with the rules being so lite, the setting made on the fly and only one player. It's not like we had a load of stuff to take into account :)

"CTRL guards" or "CMD guards"? They aren't Clay's men, are they?

I screwed up. CTRL = Us, CMD = them

I don't know if it's just me, but I have the feeling the transport prices are super inflated compared to the rest of equipment. Just sayin'

I suppose there are other ways I can force you to stay in one place.  :)

OH NO! TRAVEL EMBARGO! NO ONE CAN LEAVE.

Hah! Fair enough :P

As long as I can fleece this guy and go splash out on clothes...

I was joking about making you stay put. If you want to go to the Holy Church Place let's do it!

And I kind of wasn't when I said fleece him - the plan was to charge him for the trip and then find a way to get rid of Glo without leaving Alpha Centauri ;)

Ahhh yeah that actually makes more sense. HAHAH.

Overthinking again? ;)

Uh huh

Well, don't :P

Hello hello, you there?

yes sorry.
will post tonight.

I lied. :(
Ok, hopefully I am doing better. June is a bad month for me, I wont make excuses tho. Im sorry. Im back.

Yay, you're back! Well, July is just around the corner, so that's a good thing...

I put our chapter in group 1, lemme know if you don't see it.

I would appreciate help in fleshing out the wife's friends list. :)

I'm having tons of fun, but to create several npcs that probably won't even show up is a touch of work. I was looking over the guidebook again for inspiration, and noticed this: After an operation, each
character gains d4 credits (₡) and increases 1
skill (none➡d8➡d10➡d12).

So one of your skills should be a d8 now. Even though I have yet to find a reason to make you roll. :)

Oops, somehow I missed this post, sorry about that. Sure, I can come up with a handful of high-society/Mafia freindos.

All my skills are already at d8 (because I spent a point on each of them at character creation, to have a nice spread of average-ish skills instead of just one very strong and narrow speciality). I'll see which one I want to push to d6.

In other news I already gave Roger my "I do", so let's move on to whatever is next. Nova will be looking for a way to get the wife out of the equation without killing her: she's a swindler and a hustler and would have little compunction about offing mercenaries, thugs or other armed opposition, but killing a woman who's done her no harm in cold blood just to replace her, that's a step too far for our (anti-)heroine.
