Tensided SDN2 Campaign Discussion Thread

CorSec · Post by **CorSec** » 2004-10-08 03:05pm

Sorry for the late reply. I wasn't getting an email saying this thread had been updated. (Plus, it was my long weekend.) In no particular order: Yes, I'm free all day Saturday. I usually wait to see what day and time we set here before I plan my weekend anyway. I don't know about you other pansies, but I can stay up as late (or early) as I want. Working the graves does that to a person. Anyhoo, I'll be there with bells on ... or something.

When: Sat., October 9 @ 8 PM PST
Where: Mature Concepts server
Why: Because it's been 4 long weeks and I'm ready to see you guys kick some ass!

Room is up in case anyone wants to come in early and shoot the shit. We're still starting at 8.

Arthur_Tuxedo · Post by **Arthur_Tuxedo** » 2004-10-09 11:09pm

Are there technical problems or is everyone just late? It's OK if that's the case, since Aly won't be here til 8:30 or 9 anyway, but just wondering if people can't connect for some reason.

Marcao just let me know through our telepathic link that he is having some major computer difficulties on his end. He extends his apologies, with the trademark "~_~ aaoooo."

Arthur_Tuxedo · Post by **Arthur_Tuxedo** » 2004-10-09 11:49pm

Thanks Hotfoot. Marcao just showed up and he's actually the first one here (besides Gerard). I knew Aly was going to be late, but I'm wondering where CorSec is, he's usually here within 30 seconds of the server going up.

Hotfoot · Post by **Hotfoot** » 2004-10-09 11:56pm

You're welcome. I'm attempting to download the components myself, going to see how long my connection will let me stay connected to the server and such.

If nothing else, soon a drill and a tape measure will solve at least some of my problems.

Well not a whole lot happened, but I still enjoyed the session. It was mostly scouting and planning. I hope CorSec was just having technical difficulties, and there wasn't some kind of emergency.

Chat log is here

Note on chat log: We were just messing with you, Marcao

EDIT: Should we do the next session next week, or wait for two weeks?

Con argument: It would mean CorSec will miss two in a row.

Pro argument: Jack is not likely to play a big part in the ensuing battle anyway.

Arthur_Tuxedo · Post by **Arthur_Tuxedo** » 2004-10-10 03:20am

On a not so related note, I added rules for the spot skill in the big book, and uploaded the most current character sheets.

I wouldnt mind.

Dammit. Sorry everyone. Events beyond my control conspired against me. It wasn't technical difficulties or an emergency. I was needed by family and as we all know, saying no is hardly an option. By the time they were done with me the game was all over. ::sigh::

It happens. Look forward to seeing you next time.

Regarding next week: Are we having a session next week, or are we going to wait? It's mostly up to CorSec, since he's the one who will potentially be left out.

Also, since Hotfoot indicated that his internet connection will be made more reliable soon, we should think about updating Mikal.

I recommend starting with the template character sheet rather than trying to work with Mikal's old sheet. You have 700 starting XP, and $2,000 worth of additional equipment, above and beyond what Mikal had at the end of the last campaign. Also, if you recall, the reward for victory in the last campaign was one cybernetic upgrade of choice, no matter the cost (no autoaim processor, though).

The latest listing of cybernetics is in this supplement, and the latest in weapon and armor stats is here. Most or all of the stats have changed from the previous campaign.

That should be all you need. E-mail or PM me with questions, requests, and comments or post them here.

I'm cool with a game this week. I'll probably cry myself to sleep every night, but hey, that's not abnormal.

I vote that we just do the battle this weekend, whether it takes 30 minutes or 3 hours. That way, CorSec doesn't miss much, yet we still get to have a session this week. Then, next weekend, CorSec's back, and it's all good.

Arthur_Tuxedo · Post by **Arthur_Tuxedo** » 2004-10-11 06:46pm

I like that idea.

EDIT: Maybe we can also get Mikal up to speed if Hotfoot's connection is working by Saturday.

Arthur_Tuxedo · Post by **Arthur_Tuxedo** » 2004-10-13 01:57am

I updated the weapons tables on the character sheets with links to the Modern Firearms and Ammunitions website. Before there were only two on Jack's sheet and one on M6's.

Arthur_Tuxedo · Post by **Arthur_Tuxedo** » 2004-10-14 03:14pm

What time works for everyone this Sat.? I have no preference, myself.

As do I. I'm just gonna be hanging out, playing video games and shit all day Saturday, so whatever time works for everyone else works for me.

Post by **Alyrium Denryle** » 2004-10-14 07:29pm

I will be available after 3:00 pm

Arthur_Tuxedo · Post by **Arthur_Tuxedo** » 2004-10-15 06:16pm

How does starting at 6 PM PST sound to everyone?

Marcao · Post by **Marcao** » 2004-10-15 06:23pm

6pm PST works for me. ^_^

Works for me

Arthur_Tuxedo · Post by **Arthur_Tuxedo** » 2004-10-15 06:56pm

Okay, 6 PM PST tomorrow on Mature Concepts server, room "Tensided", password "cyber". Please download newest character sheets from site and figure out how to spend XP before gametime. Having fun is mandatory

Hotfoot · Post by **Hotfoot** » 2004-10-16 11:07am

Still working through everything, I have to ask, what happened to all the old Mk2 versions of various cybernetics? Mikal had a bunch of them, but now they don't seem to exist.
