I made the Fourth World chip up. It's a compilation of everything posted on Shadowland about the Fourth World and it's inhabitants. Pretty much everything in Shadowrun canon, but not the knowledge that can only be found in the Earthdawn setting. :)
And try to remember to shed the sig in the IC thread please. ;) |

Cork is in the south west of Ireland.
All I've got to offer by way of helping us get over to jolly old England is my :nuyen: 50,000 ruthenium cloak - which will also be doubling as a Shade-fooler. |

Rating what? It's a Datasoft, not a Knowsoft. It just has data on it. Think of it as a bunch of magazine articles all on the same chip. |

Yep. Gypsy sure as hell isn't doing too much in the way of casting till he's rested a little somewhere though. He does, after all have 9 boxes of Stun damage. |

How many Corks are there? Because I'm looking at a map of Ireland right now, and it is most definetly on the _east_ coast. South east to be precise.

You're actually at Dunmanway on the map. And although the town of Cork has its coast facing southeast, it's alot more west than east if you cut Ireland in half from top to bottom. Anyhows, you're as close to the southern most tip as you can be. Before the collapse of the mountain, you actually WERE at the most southern point of Ireland (which is on the SouthWest side of Ireland).

I just want off this rock. If we head up the east coast and cross over to Whales at Rosslare thats not that far, really.
From Dunmanway, it looks like its about 400km to Rosslare? So I whip up a force 7 and we cruise over land at... umm... can someone convert M per combat turn to KM/H? |

I believe Speed becomes *1.2 to convert to KPH

So, should we head for the narrowest point to cross the water, or just head to closest water and go from there?
Basically, spend more time on land or spend more time on water? |

We're pretty far out from England at this point, and I would hate to get jumped by something while we're stuck in the middle of the Irish sea. The farther north we go, the shorter the distance. So heading North a bit first would probably be a good idea. We might also stumble acorss materials to build a raft from.

Sphynx:

Sleeping is for sissies!
Anyway, we are going to use Movement since we have a lot of ground to cover. Can we also have a spirit carry around Gypsy so he can sleep? A sky spirit acting as a fluffy cloud bed would be nice ;) |

Oh hells yes, considering it would give us a major speed boost.
Backgammon, I dont see why the same one couldent do both. Conjuring 7 TN 7 (force 6 +L wound) drain 6 (cha) TN 6 resisting 6M |

Jack could just carry him. It just mean he has to pass his pack off to someone else, but it would be no big deal (he's not sure how well spirits can divide their attention, and he'd rather it's full focus go towards speeding them up).
And yeah, re: no clear decision on which way we should go. Dogma is the Boss, which means all final say so comes down to him. This is especially important in a game like this, where simple things like the quick back and forth needed for 'where do we go' is difficult to do in a timely manner. We all weighed in, so he should make the final decision in any case like this. I've been trying to find where it was mentioned, but what did we carry out of the Kaer with us? Jack at some point mentioned taking blankets and other traveling supplies, but I'm not sure where. (I'd like to think that a group of more or less trained proffesionals did not just walk out with nothing but what they carried in). |

You carried out what ever you carried out. I dont' run a game where gear bogs it down. If later you tell me you pull out your plate with fancy fork, knife and spoon. So be it. My only limitation is realism. Although you could pull out some bread and cheese, lasagna and a laser gun aren't going to cut it. :P

So folks, do we camp, or make like rabbits and keep running. I can easly keep us moving till dawn, but the prospect of being over water for that long would of course make me rather nervious.

Unless Gypsy miraculously recovered from 9 boxes of Stun, he is still in no shape to sustain at least 3 levitate spells for any amount of time. Especially if something unforeseen happens. I think we need to rest, either tonight, or tomorrow sometime.

This is hours and hours later. I will make a bold assumption that he has recovered by now.
This is that bloody "Rock and a hard place" bit isnt it. We either say here and stave off the shadows (or worse), or take the chances with crossing the channel with nothing but magic to keep us dry. I know that Tevos for one would much rather not spend the whole night fighting off the shadows. |
