Hehe.
For the record, at the moment he only qualifies for the "religious" part of "religious nutjob". So you're only an adjective, not a noun.

Bit of a Character and Contrast post from me today. It should make perfect sense once everyone finds out Alex's background.
By the way Marcao, you're not the only one in the group with loyalties outside of himself.
You bloody slaving imperial hedonist.

Considering there was a bloody Ice Age between Born to be Wild and us, not to mention 2 distinct Dark Ages would we even have access to it?

Lots of stuff survives Dark Ages and/or is rediscovered.

Yes, quite a lot of information survived, and there are specific mentions of the Beatles being considered classical music.
That said, most people look at classical music from Earth as rather antiquated.

Yes, well, try to think about rocking out to Baroque music ;)
Oh, and tag, folks. Sorry for the delays, hopefully we'll move at a better clip from this point on from my end.

Moving things along, since the chatter shows no signs of continuing for that scene.
Watchmen, Notice checks are at Threshold 4, Information Warfare checks are at Threshold 6 plus any bonuses.

The enemy is well outside the range of anyone's ability to lay down hurt, and as such initiative is not an issue until you close the distance to within, at the very least, Gunnar's extreme range (1.6km).
Initiative, when we do get to it, is going to be simple for everyone's sanity. Rather than having a specific order in which everyone goes, it will be very straightforward: PC actions, NPC actions. Which side goes first depends on the initiative roll of the leader for each side. If someone is tardy with combat actions, I will assume they make an action that is not suicidal, useful, but standard (i.e. no multi-action attacks wasting all their ammo in a fruitless attempt to hit, throwing down AoE weapons into a melee combat, etc.)

Nice one, Marcao - now we can focus on more important things.
Like headshotting Gears.

Okay, I need a quick sensor skill check from everyone who's scanning, Threshold 7. You roll dice equal to your skill in info warfare (0ds is the code for an unskilled check) with a straight bonus = Sensor Rating + Creativity
Enjoy

this to elicit help to continue this game, but so far, I don't seem to have any takers.

You need to PM Destructionator every hour "WILL YOU HELP ME? WILL YOU HELP ME? WILL YOU HELP ME?" without mercy until he gives in.

Well now.
It turns out that one of my scripts has a function that allows for reporting individual dice. It's not a fully-feature SilCore die roller, but it certainly looks like it can do the job.
Now then, let's talk, gentlemen.
