EDIT: I'm building the character, see my next post. I am looking for input/feedback for the character and gang. Also, if any of you want to build Major, Minor or Hanger-on Gangers, it would be greatly appricated. If people show interest and I get permission from the other players, I'll even pack up the gang into a drop-in group that GMs can use. Minor changes made to PC/Main Ganger production rules*
Well, my group has decided that since I have a military class that I'm going to be gone for 2 months for, instead of playing my game every week we will be alternating weeks with one that one of the players is stepping up to run.
It is going to be a slightly lower power base gangers game in which the PCs are youger gangers trying to build up a go-gang. There are 6 of us, so just from PCs we will have enough to have a (very) small gang.
Here's the limits for PCs and Main Gangers[ Spoiler ]
Keep it simple and reasonable, no twinky stuff (DP 8~9 before add-ons, nothing way out there)
Everyone must know how to drive a bike
Everyone gets 2BP ($10,000) to spend on their bike and their riding gear/gang colors. Bikes must be from the gang list.
Magic level is low (The Adept 'Sonic' is our only Magic Character)
300BP Total characters
150BP max in stats (2 is considered average)
Skill Group/Skill cap of 3 + two skills @ 4 or one skill @ 5
Free contacts = CHA * 2 (Max rating 1/5~2/4~3/3)
Max 10BP in resources ($50,000), you want more take 'In Debt'
Max Availibility of 9 (15 with 'Restricted Gear')
All PCs receive a Rating 3 SIN. Don't bother buying more for beginning of game.
Max Low Lifestyle (PCs who plan on moving into the club house we get first game get a month free)
Here's the limits for minor gangers and hangers on[ Spoiler ]
Keep it simple and reasonable, no twinky stuff (DP 8~9 before add-ons, nothing way out there)
Everyone must know how to drive a bike
Bikes are *NOT* free and must be paid for
Everyone gets a 'Gang Colors' armored jacket or UE for free, mods (if any) must be paid for
Magic level is low (think we got 1 adept being built)
240BP Total characters
120BP max in stats (2 is considered average)
Skill Group/Skill cap of 3 + two skills @ 4 or one skill @ 5
Free contacts = CHA * 2 (Max rating 1/5~2/4~3/3)
Max 10BP in resources ($50,000), you want more take 'In Debt'
Max Availibility of 7 (13 with 'Restricted Gear')
Max Low Lifestyle
Current Characters PCs are building (Yes the female Characters have female Players)
'
Edge' (Mine, see below. Male Ork muscle and a bouncer at 'Mons Venus')
'
Sonic' (Male Human 'Biking' Adept, Daredevil)
'
Wrench' (Male Human Mechanic/Semi-Hacker)
'
Jessie' (Female Human B&E Thief/Ganger)
'
TK' (Male Ork Ganger, hand-to-hand muscle)
'
Cherry' (Female Redheaded Elven 'Face', dancer at 'Mons Venus') [Side note: promised to wear a skirt, hooker boots, and tank-top to first game to get in character. I foresee distractions.]
So I decided, even if one of those two builds a bruiser, we're lacking in combat power. So I set about building a character to cover that.
*Edit Edit*
Here is our group decided gang info. Not official yet but what we have hashed out together. Also, since all the PCs were talking about ether room-mating up or getting a gang hang-out/club-house, the GM has hand waved a free month of Low Lifestyle for all PCs who plan to live at the club-house. First game will including finding, securing, and fixing up said club-house.
