Hmmm...it's losing data when I try to edit the initial post.

For clarification, the Medical Officer is going to be played by ZenZen.

Posting guidelines for the IC thread:

Please preface any posts with your IC Character's name in brackets.

I.E.: [Bob] Bob walks over to the fridge to get a drink.

Character speech is is quotes, thoughts in italics, and all else in plain text.

I.E.: [Bob] "SonuvaBITCH!" This guy just won't fucking die... Bob thought as he slammed a fresh magazine into SIG 552 Commando.

Try to get in at LEAST one IC post per day, Monday through Friday. If you won't be able to do that for some reason, let me know in the OOC thread.

IC thread up and running. The game is a GO!

http://forums.dumpshock.com/index.php?showtopic=18931

You all have 5 minutes of "in-game" time for small talk. I'll wait until tomorrow to start the briefing.

That's an older version of my character sheet. The updated version should have him being born in 2036, and has a bit added to his Background.

Would you like a new copy?

Last minute clarification about how Mosby's gear is screwed together. The skillwires have a muscle triggered switch to connect and disconnect them from his datajack - and have no other wireless capability. Unless I say otherwise, they are disconnected

Don't want anyone hacking into those ;)

There is also a second muscle triggered kill switch that can disconnect his eyes & ears from all his DNI and control rig. By default this is connected so I can change vision modes etc.

Edit: I like Doc Funk's use of Myer-Briggs - Mosby is clearly an ENTJ.

Just watch out for mages *cough*Beckett*cough* hacking you.

Just wanted to send out a
'Hi. Looking forward to gaming with you all. This should be major ass-kickery fun.'
And don't hesitate to get yourselves (nearly) killed. I'll patch you up (and make you rise from the dead ...err, unconscious when necessary - no slacking off with Samantha around!).
I might even consider raising your morale.

Apart from that, please ignore my messy, early draft char background in TRO's spoiler for now.
I'll have a proper version soonish (still some corrections to the sheet pending as well).

Woot. No one's ever really mentioned liking that stuff before. I add it all the time. <wipes away a tear of happiness> All is redeemed.

EDIT: Ouch. Looks like my updated character sheet got screwed hard. Need me to resend it, Ronin?

Mosby has hacking skills - and I have no faith in those either ;)

Myer briggs gives a thumbnail sketch overview of a characters personality in 4 letters. Clever.

Just an FYI, I'm home with a sick child today, so I won't be on AIM, and I won't have much posting time either. I will, however, try to get the general mission briefing posted by this afternoon.

Also, though I hadn't mentioned it, please put all dice rolls/tests and game mechanics in the OOC thread...I think that will help keep the story flowing in the IC thread. Also, for things like Ivan's assensing test, I'll most likely post the results in PM. It will be up to the player to determin if/when/how that info is shared with the rest of the team.

And thanks again for joining my game. ;-)

Oh, and everyone who's Charsheet on this thread is incorrect, go ahead and send the corrected version to me via PM. I'm not at work to day, so I don't have easy access to my e-mail.

Mission briefing is up. It's a little rushed, but sufficient for now.

Also, more specific details about the mission will be available on the ConsOps node. I suppose I should have mentioned that.

I'll have to post the updated character sheets tomorrow when I get back to work. For some bizarre reason, when I go to edit the first post in this thread, the text body only shows Mosby and O'kerrigan. The other character info is missing. My guess is that it's beyond the character count maximum or something like that.

At work, I have a text file with all the character info. I'll just paste the changes there, and then use it to completely recreate the first post.

Unfortunately, posts containing multiple spoilers always have that problem on Dumpshock. Consider it a glitch in the system.

A question that is likely to be extremely relevant - is stick and shock a valid type of ammo considering your house rules?

I can see the team becoming very good at non leathal takedowns over the next year or two!

I wouldn't mind if the rest of the team drops me a note (PM is good) about weapon (type) preferences and the like when you all get the chance.

Done. Though I don't know if I needed to add anything for any drones or vehicles (assuming we'll have access to those), so it may be revised once Rozhenko gets there and is briefed.

Done.

As Mosby & Byrne atleast are gong to be uncomfortable with shooting up the country side, I suspect more importantly than guns the real priority is going to be all the surveillance gear, stealth stuff and non lethal weaponry we can jam into whatever transport we can beg/borrow/steal

That other stuff is fine and all, but it ain't my problem. ;) :D

Guns, on the other hand, is what Ashley lives for. And since we've been together for a while, he'd have a pretty good idea of not only your preferences, but also your attitudes towards guns and killing and stuff. So I figured I'd get a jump on things, because I still have to familiarize myself with TheOneRonin's weapons changes. :)

Haha. Actually in the 'breakdown' helpfully provided by the commander it wasn't anyone in particulars problem. So I was planning on asking very nicely for you to atleast the armour side of it while you are down there ;) Nick's probably the best choice to assemble the other gear we'll need.

Ohh, that reminds me, add a squirt gun to the shopping list in the PM :P

I assumed weaponry to include armor and the like ... basically all the combat stuff. If that changes what you've already sent me, or if you have any particular ideas on the matter, feel free to yap at me about it either here or in PM (or even in the IC if you are so inclined :D).

Nick is definitely the go to guy for vehicles and electronics.

Speaking of that Doc, I want my NeoNET Watchman. :)

As for medical stuff ZenZen, we (read I) need Savior Medkits ... specifically. Anything else is gravy.

I've gotten more than a few questions about specialty ammunition, so I've posted my updated house rules on the website, under the ROE link.

Personally, I consider just about all of SR ammunition rules complete garbage, so I've redesigned my sorta from the ground up. I know some of you will be sad to see the disappearance of Stick N' Shock, Gel, Flechette, and EX-Explosive ammo, but my new variants make a lot more sense.

I'll answer more of your OOC questions as soon as I can.
