@ArCha: How are you coming along with your character? Any questions? When can we expect to see something? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Belatedly here’s a concept for a Seattle based game (I’d probably do something different for another sprawl as I don’t have a handle on them and so would probably want to play a newcomer…)
Street Handle: Cam Archetype: Artisan Adept Role: Enforcer for an Urban Tribe “The Mechanicals” – a steampunk group of scavengers and tinkerers on the edge of the Puyallup barrens who sell their stuff at the crime mall Team Role: Jack of all trades, a little bit of combat, stealth, influence and tech skills (assuming I can cram them into the points allocation of course!). I figured as a reserve character it would be quite useful to cover a number of bases as we don’t know who won’t be available. I’ll work on stats once I’ve had a chance to do a character sketch – always the first thing I do (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Still working away; it's been a busy week but I'm almost there. I should have the first draft done in a couple hours. I was wondering how you would like to handle smartguns and drones? I've always stuck to it working only when a rigger is jumped in but I don't think there is an official ruling. |

They work just fine either way, AFAIK.

That ended up taking a lot longer than expected but I'm sending a draft over now. I wasn't able to afford a mobile home and a getaway vehicle for you folks so I guess I'm looking for a new home. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Quick question - is there a group fixer that I should spend points on? Sorry if this has already been decided but I may have missed it...

Ok, I'll take it that means we aren't getting a freebie (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nyahnyah.gif)
I suggest we set aside at least 1 loyalty, 3 connection for a group fixer...unless anyone has a better idea? I guess we could just let the 'face' do all the talking (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) But you will certainly get some new contacts during the game... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Speaking of Fixers, it might not be such a bad idea to know some different guys here, too, considering the house rules for contact specialties. Bye Thanee |

I'm thinking of taking two group contacts (my tribe and the adjacent one). Both will be between 20-100 people, one has a smattering of magic and the other a heavy matrix side - is this ok? I've also taken my tribe's leader as a separate contact as he'll probably act as my defacto fixer...? Would a group be able to get a couple of specialities as they've had more points invested in them? This is what it's looking like at the moment [ Spoiler ]

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) We can go with Raymond Chen. And I've got Influence 1, Charisma 4, and I took specializations in Bargaining and Impersonation. So I have 5 dice in general Influence, and 7 to get us more money. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

I name my fixer Jacks, but I can change that to Raymond Chen just so we've all at least got the same fixer.

I keep tinkering with my character, but I think I'm finished now. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
Also, I found http://www.myth-weavers.com/forumhome.php - they have an online SR4 character sheet that I'm filling out. Seems convenient. |

I've used the mythweavers before and it's pretty good. I do like that if you name your GM, they can edit the sheet as well. These days though I'm really in love with Chummer and just email the file for that if asked.

I get the 100th post! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Any openings for one more character or the game is already set and done? Just lemme know anything before I take part in it.
lore, I took a peek at the other forum and I can say the skin design is great. |
