@Team #1: Sparky had to pull out of her games to focus on work so it appears that the active players are: Kvasac, BishopMcQ & Trigger.

Does that mean that Storm is gone as well? I know she was supposed to be AFK the week of July 9th, but I haven't seen anything from her in awhile either.

Yes. Storm officially dropped. At the time of my last team summary post she had not dropped yet.

So, do we recruit new players? Re-set game? Continue on?
do I have to play Whisper too

?

Jul 29 2007, 10:51 PM
I have a possible recruit wanting to take over Rex. Let me see if/how he works out before we expand farther than that. That would bring us back up to four. I'll NPC whisper for a little bit and we can make any decisions from there..
No game re-sets.

Howdy folks, sorry for the abrupt and unannounced disappearance. I'm going to be withdrawing from most of my online commitments.
Work has been intense and will become moreso as the months pass (until some time in 08). I should have done this a month ago. I've spoken (as you know) to Redjack and Grayson will be making some kind of hopefully graceful exit.
Good luck with finding Spencer and getting Kilroy's name on the map.

Team #2
Cynic hasn't checked into Puyallups since 7/23, making tomorrow two weeks since his last post. I remember him saying early on about m-f being his normal posting times (or something like that). In any case, Tuesday will be outside of two weeks. If he posts we'll welcome him back, if not Cynic going into remote control Monday night/Tuesday morning. (Dang - We need him in Southern Hospitality, where he has been very quiet as well. Hopefully he has just been wrapped up in RL or on vacation).

Being the barrens, that will be really tough.
@TriggerWhew. Well withing your potential maximum (Agility(6)+Great Leap(4)=10 * 1.5= 15 meters)
For a 5 meter jump (threshhold of 3), with 6 successes I'd say you did it with ease and grace.
Not sure how you came up with the 6 successes = 9 meters. In fact, 6 successes could have carried you 12 meters with a running start.
From a standing position your jump with six successes would have been 6 meters (Wow. The max there being Agility(6) + Great Leap(4) = 10 meters).
Can we jump call you Tarzan errr.. Tigger.. of the urban jungle?

@Redjack: Was that another 5 meters or 15 meters in your last post? 5 I can do, 15 is my maximum.
And I got 9 meters from 6 successes because 6*1.5=9, which I now realize should have been 6*2=12...oh well, I still made it

Do I recognize any kind of gang tags in the area? I have Gang Turf, Gang ID, Area Knowledge Puyallup and Redmond at various levels.
If any of those apply let me know and I'll roll. Does Cynic recognize any mystical signficance to the placement of the stakes? Like ritual magic?
Careful of the ash, it's deep enough to hide a land mine, what fun!
Redjack
Aug 8 2007, 02:42 PM
@Cedric
No magic in the area. Once Collateral points out the stakes, a further investigation by Cynic sheds no new information. They are not arranged in anyway for any type of magic he is aware of and is pretty sure that there would be at least the faintest residue if they had been... Though he realizes assensing is not exactly his forte.
@Team #2
You are deep into the barrens. Roll Puyallup Area Knowledge & Gang Turf/knowledge checks.

@Puyallups Area Knowledge:
1 hit: [ Spoiler ]
Hell's Kitchens is named as such because the area is effectively hell on Earth. With Mt Rainer returning to active levels a few years ago, a continual cloud of debris keeps the area coated.
@ 2 hits: [ Spoiler ]
The most depraved individuals have moved into this area. Mostly those who have gone insane and believe that they are trolls and orks of mythology. It is considered the most dangerous of the areas of the Puyallups.
@ 3 hits:[ Spoiler ]
Road maintenance has not occurred in two life times in Hell's Kitchens. The sole reason the road is in the shape it is in is because no one uses it.
@ 4 hits:[ Spoiler ]
In this area, border patrol
never uses ground vehicles due to the threat levels.
@ 5 hits:[ Spoiler ]
A number of smugglers using the roads in this area were never heard from again. Several brag that they have no problems and once and rumors exist that several have been ambushed by gangs controlling the area.
@Puyallups Gang Knowledge:
1 hit: [ Spoiler ]
The gangs of Hell's Kitchens are mostly a depraved lot. Rumors abound that they fancy themselves orks and trolls of mythology. Rumors are rife with barbarism, cannibalism and unspeakable acts of sadism.
@ 2 hits:[ Spoiler ]
Several well known gangs include The Flesh Eaters, Skull Fuckers, Ass Hats (yes literally) and The Princesses. The latter being the most depraved of all.
@ 3 hits:[ Spoiler ]
In the past year or two, the gangs (who were formerly VERY low tech) have begun to use more technology. A paid of Princesses who mixed it up with the Carabando Diggers and lost were setting up some monitoring devices on the edge of Carabando.

I unfortunately don't have my books with me here at work, and don't have a pdf copy of the BBB, but iirc scanning for hidden nodes is an extended test that requires 10? hits and has an interval of 1 combat turn. Also, I believe that I roll my electronic warfare + scan on this test. If I'm wrong about any of this, please correct me. Additionally, are we using the houserule that you're only allowed to roll skill rating number of times on extended tests? Actually, I'm not even sure that's a houserule. If we are, I might as well not even roll, but here's rolls anyways:
Electronic Warfare (2) + Scan (4) = 6 Dice
