@Always - you are creating a rigger character and going to co-GM, that's lots of work.

Full Version: Lock and Load [SR5] recruitment
I guess I am a sucker for my own punishment.
Should have Requiem finalised today I hope!
EDIT: Ok, more or less complete. Can't squeeze any money for grenades so hopefully we'll be able to get some from 'stores'?!?

Call me crazy, but ammunition seems like something that the company would provide.
Clutch's sheet is basicly done, I do need a hand regarding which SINner level I should take. Let me give you the (very)rough background I am composing, and perhaps you will see my confusion over which category he would fall under.
Thordrim "Clutch" McHale (born Connor Fitzgerald)
Birth Date: Sept 28, 2036
Race: Dwarf
Archetype: Rigger/Dragon Pilot

@Overkill, could either be national SIN or assume he got upgraded to a wageslave one when he joined the corp?!?
Regarding ammo, I agree the company should buy it for on the job stuff but adding it to my sheet (and paying for it out of my resources) helps to balance mundanes against magic users etc who would otherwise need those points for other things. Of course if our kindly GM wants to dish out bucket loads of APDS you won't hear me complaining

I'm curious, is there space here? The title says recruiting, but page one says full, and page two says you need to replace someone
If there is space, I am interested.
Here is Clutch's sheet, just need to finish up his contacts. Had to cut my Uncouth Negative Quality (Sadly...) to fit in the SINner quality. I bought my own ammo for my drones and personal weapons, didn't want to assume it would be provided, (though wouldn't mind the spare change if PMSC does indeed supply ammunition ;) ).
I didn't buy ammo for the Dragon or APCs, I certainly hope the company keeps them loaded.

@Aria
Basic grenades (fragmentation) and regular ammo is supplied for free. 3-4 frag grenades and 4 clips. Any specialty grenade or ammunition is with your own nuyen, but availability rainings are gone.
@All
Sorry for my lack of bein here this weekend, had an unexpected extended weekend (got Monday and Tuesday off with pay ) and was with the wife and kid. But I am back for th week to th dredge of reality and therefore my escape here.

In response to the previous inquiry on how the group operates, these are Clutch's two cents on the matter:
1) B to C (Clutch will do what is needed to pay the bills; but will never fire on civilians and tends to follow his conscience.)
2) Anti Megacorp, Pro Meta, and Anti Hate Group (Sharing a similar philosophy to Valkyrie Tactical Interdiction and Defense.)
3) A or B

@Drace: I was curious how rank is going to be handled in the outfit. Clutch would likely have been a Lieutenant or Captain in VTID, (being an officer is a requirement to command the aircraft/vehicles he pilots,) but as its a small company I imagine they don't have too many Officers. Let me know when you have a chance.
Double Post, my mistake.

Currently we are full but I haven't hear anything from two of out players for a little while. I will keep you posted if anythin changes and send you a Pm. Aswell the other 2075 games are nearly all recruiting still.
@Always
For ranks, each character in the operative division (so the PCs) are given the rank "Operator" regardless if rank in previous militaries. Much like assets for CIA and other "special" action forces, the pcs don't fit into a natural military structure. So while they may have been a private, sergeant or colonel before say, they are all on the same footing as of their admittance to the PMSC. The regular forces of the PMSC follow standard US/Canadian military structure.
@Drace: K, gotcha. I was worried that Clutch might outrank the group just given he would have to be an Officer, and I didn't really like the dynamic that would impose. The operative squad being all Operators works well for an SR game, where whoever the specialist for a given part of the mission is generally takes the lead.
Sidenote; Mind if Clutch installs mounts for his Rotodrones in the Dragon and APCs?

@overkill:
Transports have been fitted with drone racks already. Haven't displayed vehicle stats/makeup because for th most part they are transport only, not for active use per se.
@all:
Haven't heard from two of the players in a little over week. Was going to wait for word back before starting the initial Ic posts, but it's been a little while and framework is done. Going to be posting the initial IC this week.

Looking forward to it!
I'm really lookng forward to this game. More aggressive activity perhaps to unload ammo and tension.
I'm going to review my character to ensure i didn't forget some tools of the trade.

Hey all sorry for the lack of IC, and general activity. Had a work and family situation turn my 4 day weekend into a 12 day work week essentially. Will have the post up by Friday (99% a guarantee lol)
IRL comes first. We all understand. Hope everything is better, or at least stable, now.
Hahaha it gt more chaotic before even getting close to stable. But got th first post up! Wa hoping to have something bigger, but this will be a good start I hope for all the players to get their characters into the room.
@Drace: Posted this question to the Stormy Waters Thread, but I think you must have missed it.
I don't know if you have checked your messages,(I think its harder to notice because you do most of your work through your phone,) but I sent you a PM asking a few questions I needed answered before I made Clutch's first post. Check it out when you have a chance.

Also, have we heard anything, from Raiden, Neural Ronin, or Rayanne?
I can't recall hearing anything from them in a LONG time, it would be good to know if we need to reopen recruitment.
Several people have passed through interested in joining, but had to be told it was a full house.

Drace, can't remember if I've asked you this but could you do a 'player list' with links like the one in the main OoC? I'll copy and paste it onto that list then so we can track sheets etc!
@Aria
Will do that this week, been a bit busy lol
@Iverkill
Ya I have PMed all three with no response for awhile? As it stands I PMed the last potential player and told him there is an opening t no reply. I'm essentially going to keep those three in te wings as Background until either they return or are replaced. Aria was definitely right about player attrition.

Yeah, player attrition in PbP is brutal... something people pick up in their spare time and easily forget. Just the way it goes.
@Drace: Check your messages
Done, reply in moment thanks for the heads up.
