[peregaming] GM asks, "Anyway, any questions still lingering about the story/etc?"
[peregaming] Zero asks (of Alyan), "BTW, did you read the transcript of last time, or should we summarize?"
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "Yeah, fixed my sheet and re-uploaded!"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims (at GM), "I have a question about the etc.!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I did read them, but a summary would not be amiss."
[peregaming] Zero asks (of GM), "I had seven wounds. You mentioned something about healing happening from resting. Will our trip out to the funky planet we're searching for last long enough for me to be fully healed when we arrive?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I do remember that we open on the group tracking me down for a Heresy roll."
[peregaming] Obem says, "In the grim dark future, there is only commerce"
[peregaming] GM says (to Zero), "Yes, given that I plan to start the session upon your arrival back into realspace."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Man, I hope I don't get 7 wounds; I'd be dead."
[peregaming] Zero says (to Alyan), "We're in the Kronos Expanse! Yolande found a lead on some cool archeotech on some planet with a weird messed up solar system, so we docked at a local space station to research it."
[peregaming] Obem says (to alyan), "Just call them Stigmata"
[peregaming] Zero says, "While we were there, she tricked a merchant into selling us a map to that system for cheap. Obem bought a cool sword. (Or was it an axe?) And we went to dinner with some folks."
[peregaming] Obem says, "(Chainsword)"
[peregaming] Obem says, "(to kill people who send chain letters)"
[peregaming] Zero says, "One of them turned out to be a blackmarket trader who might be a good customer for blackmarket goods we find. Another one apparently wants us to kill Yolande and will pay us for sending us her body."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Harsh but fair."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Then on the way back to the ship, we got attacked by a cult of assassins who apparently thing that either we or just I are bad juju."
[peregaming] Obem says, "I think it was just you"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "So we got one of our astropaths to do a reading on me, but she bluescreend and had to be hard booted. Apparently some weird stuff about demons. Which Alyan might know about?"
[peregaming] Obem says, "And so we show up at your door"
[peregaming] GM says, "At the door of the shrine to the God-Emperor"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "(or s/quarters/shrine ;-)"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "So this is an INT roll, right?"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Any adjustments to my base 35?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "(int)"
[peregaming] GM says, "It's Forbidden Lore(Heresy), so no bonuses"
[peregaming] GM says, "(since you haven't bought +10's)"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "I don't think I could, right? Those are only available at level 2?"
[peregaming] GM says (to Alyan), "yeah."
[peregaming] GM says, "You could use the Librarium Vault"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Is that a thing that's on the ship?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "You're not old enough to learn about the *good* heresies."
[peregaming] GM says, "It grants +10 to any Lore rolls. If you're okay about walking all the way."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Yup!"
[peregaming] Obem says, "We really should get some segways"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "And I can spend a fate point beforehand for another +10?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yes, but be warned, if you roll a critical failure, you might get a paper cut"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "nooooooooo"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Why don't you get them al�l cut...er nevermind"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Hee."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "OK, that's still just 55, but I'll do those two things."
[peregaming] Obem says, "Woo"
[peregaming] GM says, "You succeed"
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "By 30!"
[peregaming] Obem exclaims, "Nerd out!"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "3 degrees of success!"
[Crows-Nest] (from Zero) GM says, "So warp energies start spewing from all of Aylan's orifices."
[Crows-Nest] Zero asks, "Is he also sometimes known as 'Jeeyem'?"
[peregaming] Obem asks, "Of evil mutants, I assume, or do I have any kinship with him?"
[peregaming] GM says (to Obem), "All mutation is change. All change is Tzeentch."
[peregaming] GM says, "He feeds on it."
[Crows-Nest] Obem exclaims, "Finally some dinner!"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Is there?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Scholastic Lore Imperial Creed"
[peregaming] GM says, "to find out"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "OK, not spending a fate point, but still looking things up, since we're still in the Librum; TN 45."
[peregaming] GM says, "You still have +10 from being in the library ;)"
[peregaming] GM says, "That's a simple success."
[peregaming] GM says, "You know some mental exercises and self-talk stuff that Zero can use to strengthen her faith in the Emperor, but you have no guarantee that it can stop a full-blown chaos god"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Zero's female?"
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, ">X ZERO"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says (to aly�an), "Those aren't extra kitens under her armor"
[Crows-Nest] Alyan says, "Hee"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Is this something that I can roll for, or that she rolls for, or...?"
[peregaming] GM says, "It's more of an RP thing. You know, like good luck charms."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Got it."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "This seems like a good time for the Navigator to announce our arrival!"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "Oh, so this is happening after you've healed up? Okay!"
[peregaming] GM says, "(who's the GM here....)"
[peregaming] Zero says, "If you think that works narratively."
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "I bet Obem could 'fix' that."
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "Time for a Navigation test to figure out where you are!"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "This is Normal Sane Navigation?"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Are we going to that anomaly, or somewhere else?"
[peregaming] GM says (to Zero), "Yup, Navigation(Stellar)"
[peregaming] Zero says (to Alyan), "I think our intention is to go to the anomaly."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Let's find out if that worked!"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Fate point!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "that'd be a no ;-)"
[peregaming] Zero says, "That was vs 40."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "(does a tie count as a success?)"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Oh, and how charmed am I today?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "(Not charmed enough.)"
[peregaming] Zero says, "So that would be a success with two extra degrees of success."
[Crows-Nest] GM says, "Not pear-shaped."
[Crows-Nest] Alyan says, "<dramatic chord>"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "We've got sensors for this kind of thing, right?"
[peregaming] GM says, "We do indeed"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "I think they involve some kind of skill test that I've forgotten about?"
[peregaming] GM says, "You used that data when you made that roll"
[Crows-Nest] Obem asks, "So the star seems to be our anomaly?"
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "Yeah."
[peregaming] GM says (to Zero), "Well, for more detailed stuff it'd be Scrutiny + Detection"
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "Although we don't know if it's where the archeotech itself is, or a side-effect of it being used on one of the planets, or what."
[peregaming] GM says, "It's safe to assume that when you pinpoint your location, you're using sensors, not a sextant ;)"
[Crows-Nest] GM says (to Zero), "You know the archeotech was hidden on one of the planets in the system."
[Crows-Nest] Zero asks, "I have Scrutiny! Is Detection a ship stat?"
[Crows-Nest] GM says (to Zero), "yes"
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "Ilac."
[Crows-Nest] GM says, "ilac me too"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "My Scrutiny is vs. 33. Anyone have better than that?"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "Nope"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Nope"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I have it as a basic skill for 41 Perception."
[peregaming] GM says (to Zero), "You have +20 from the ship sensors (detection)"
[peregaming] GM says, "So your odds are slightly better than fifty fifty"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Does Basic halve it? Or a straight -X?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Half."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "So I guess I'm the one!"
[peregaming] GM says (to Zero), "What are you scanning -- oh, well."
[peregaming] Zero says (to GM), "I was going to start with the white orb thingy."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Are there rules for assisting?"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "OK!"
[peregaming] Zero says, "I don't know if I want to burn another fate point this early in the session."
[peregaming] GM says, "Hint, you don't."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Hee."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Does the orb look big enough to land on?"
[peregaming] GM says, "It's a planet-sized planet. Definitely no moon."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Is a planet big enough to land on?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yes"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "OK good ;-"
[peregaming] Alyan says, ")"
[peregaming] Obem asks, "Can we at least tell wether the atmosphere is breathable or not?"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Piloting, Spacecraft!"
[peregaming] GM says, "Okay, it's a +10 because they're relatively easy to spot, being big"
[peregaming] GM says, "Pilot + 15 from manevrability +10 aforemention"
[peregaming] Zero says, "So, I have 60 Agility, +10 from my mind impulse unit."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "So that's vs. 95?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yep."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "So, five extra degrees of success!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Wow, OK then."
olethros disappears through an invisible gap in the MUD. You think you may have heard the sounds of chatting before the gap closed again.
[peregaming] Obem asks, "Are there any rules for how that works?"
[peregaming] GM says (to Obem), "You just ask for a certain number of crew and shuttles and you get them."
[peregaming] Zero says, "(That's what the shuttles are called, right?)"
[peregaming] Zero says, "(Or am I mixing them up?)"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "They are indeed guncutters!"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "Bring that guy who is about to retire, the man who just got married, and the woman who just found out she's pregnant"
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "We should also make sure to include someone whose name we never bothered to learn and who has no distinguishing characteristics."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Are there costs/benefits of bringing more/fewer people?"
[peregaming] GM says, "http://plover.net/~peregrine/RPG/GuncutterStats.pdf"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Or do we basically just bring as many as we can fit?"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Are there multiple shuttles?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yes"
[peregaming] GM says, "You can bring a couple of extra shuttles to escort you."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "We can put the other seven on a second shuttle, then."
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "Sorry, Corporal, but it sounds like you're either going to have to get married right now or retire tomorrow if you want to join us. There just isn't time for you to get pregnant before the mission."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Is there a benefit of doing so?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Cannon fodder, if we get in a fight."
[peregaming] GM says, "As Zero said."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Is there a drawback?"
[Setting the zoned flag.]
[peregaming] Zero says, "Although the last time we played, I seem to recall one of them getting a critical failure and accidentally shooting us."
[peregaming] Zero says (to Alyan), "The other guncutter will have a crap NPC pilot and might crash into a mountain or something."
[peregaming] GM says, "Not crap, just merely competent"
[peregaming] GM says, "30 to piloting"
[peregaming] Zero says, "So only a 2/3 or so chance of crashing into a mountain."
[Crows-Nest] GM says, "Those aren't mountains."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "So, two guncutters, us on one, Unishment on the other, and as many mooks as it takes to fill the extra seats?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yep."
[peregaming] Obem asks, "How many guncutters do we have?"
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "(Try not to get the order of the words mixed up.)"
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "The Fortunate's sheet should probably be up on http://slingergame.wikidot.com/obem:player-characters"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "Time for a -20 piloting test as you try to enter the storm!"
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "(Calculating...)"
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "So, I normally have 60, +10 for the cybertech."
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "So that's a failure."
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "This probably is worth an FP."
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "Oh dear."
[peregaming] GM says, "ahahaha"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "This was a quick session"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Can I Inspire?"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "or something like that?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Do you have a talent for that? If so, inspire away."
[peregaming] Zero waits for that answer before taking action.
[Crows-Nest] Obem exclaims, "I prespire!"
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "I respire. Heavily."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Looking up Perform, which I vaguely recall does something like this..."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "You're a Bard?!?"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "Maybe I can intimidate Zero into landing us safely"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I can improve Morale; I dunno if that will actually help here."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Since I don't know what Morale does."
[peregaming] GM says (to Alyan), "it's a ship crew stat, it means you can prevent mutiny :P"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Does morale affect us or just the mooks?"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Can I make a Pilot check to recover?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Also: can I make a retroactive change to my character sheet, now that I know the game a little better? :)"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yes, but piloting's now at -30, because of mounting tension and lack of visibility"
[peregaming] Zero says, "(Wapping Master of Gunnery for Master of Small Craft.)"
[peregaming] Zero says, "(Because I realized that Obem will pretty much always be on guns.)"
[peregaming] GM says (to Zero), "It's kind of cheeky, but I'll allow it exceptionally for RP purposes."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Woo!"
[peregaming] GM says, "Since you were delivered as a child in a small craft."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Vs. 60 + 10 - 30 = 40... Master of Small Crafts reroll!"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Do armor/toughness affect that?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Sure"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Does armor absorb some?"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says (to alyan), "TOG+armor"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "What's TOG?"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "Toughness"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "So if I have 4 armor and a 4 Toughness Bonus, does that negate 8 wounds?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yep"
[peregaming] Zero asks (of Alyan), "Where's that?"
[peregaming] GM says, "since it had no penetration"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Whew."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "If it had penetration, could toughness negate that part? Or not?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Penetration reduces armor"
[peregaming] Zero says, "I think that penetration negates armor."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Then Toughness + any remaining armor negates wounds."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "OK, got it. Thanks."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Normally, or newly?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "(the voice)"
[peregaming] GM says, "42's voice has always been like that"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Got it."
[Crows-Nest] Zero says (to Alyan), "So, as we were saying earlier: yes, there's the risk that if you bring extra mooks, they might crash their shuttle into yours."
[peregaming] Obem asks, "So we're landed in the eye of the hurricane?"
[Crows-Nest] Alyan says, "Hee"
[peregaming] GM says (to Obem), "You are quite close to the eye, yes, and the eye seems to be centered on the mountain"
[Crows-Nest] Obem wears woolen gloves on her tentacles.
[peregaming] GM asks, "Do you guys have any specific strategy, like how long to walk before turning back, etc?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Part of my strategy is 'if we get in too much trouble, just have them beam us out'."
[peregaming] Obem asks, "How far away is the mountain, approximately? And how cold is it?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Cold enough that you can't run."
[peregaming] GM says, "Wait, you're using void suit."
[peregaming] GM says, "Hm, that changes things a bit."
[peregaming] Zero says, "And also woolen gloves as well."
[peregaming] GM says, "I'd say you can ignore most of the ill effects, but if your suits get damaged you'll be suffering from it."
[peregaming] GM says, "You're wearing armour under the void-suits, I assume."
[peregaming] Obem says, "of course"
[Crows-Nest] Obem asks, "Is there transporter technology, or is that just a joke?"
[Crows-Nest] GM says, "The teleportarium? It works... in theory."
[Crows-Nest] Zero asks, "Do you have the URL for the ship's specs handy?"
[Crows-Nest] GM says, "Sure, but it won't help much http://plover.net/~peregrine/RPG/TheFortunate.pdf"
[Crows-Nest] GM says, "Since the teleportarium mechanics are vague."
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "But it will remind us if we have any other useful things on the ship we've forgotton."
[Crows-Nest] GM says, "I'd say you'd need a beacon of some kind for people aboard the Fortunate to find you and then teleport you."
[Crows-Nest] Zero asks, "Do our suit radios count?"
[Crows-Nest] Alyan says, "Well, I'm a beacon of hope, so I'm sure that'll be sufficient."
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "Yay."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Let's walk as about half a day's out, and then reassess."
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "I can at least leave a trail of destruction, if that helps"
[peregaming] GM says, "OK."
[peregaming] Zero says, "That way, if things aren't looking promising, we can theoretically get back before we need to rest."
[peregaming] GM says, "You know, if you'd thought about it, you could have taken an Astropath and then you wouldn't have been cut off"
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "I imagine the remains of the Delta should count as a beacon, at least."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Oh, are our radios out too?"
[peregaming] GM says, "They're out of range."
[peregaming] Zero nods.
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Oh well!"
[peregaming] Zero says, "This will be a good thing to remember next time :)"
[Crows-Nest] Obem exclaims, "I have survival!"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "Trained"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Woo!"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "Go for it!"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "sigh"
[Crows-Nest] Obem exclaims, "Fate point!"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Failure. My INT is only 30."
[peregaming] GM says, "Hm, it's not too bad a failure, since you have one big landmark that can't be missed."
[peregaming] Alyan asks (of Obem), "Check to make sure you don't have to spend it, right?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Obem is not Charmed"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Oh, right, wrong person ;-)"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Four letters, o and e in it..."
[peregaming] Zero says (to Alyan), "You can tell us apart by counting the tentacles."
[peregaming] Obem says (to alyan), "Obem = One born every minute"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "So if we went for another half a day, we would expect to still be at the base of the mountain, not near the top?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yep."
[peregaming] GM says, "Guncutters aren't equipped for that, normally."
[peregaming] GM says, "You can of course improvise a shelter with Survival"
[peregaming] Obem exclaims, "Rolling!"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Gosh dang"
[peregaming] GM says, "So close"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Oh right, we're no there yet :-)"
[peregaming] Zero says, "We're still deciding whether or not we want to turn back."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Well, if we keep going, maybe try every few hours, and as soon as you find a good spot, we stop there?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I'm assuming we could re-roll Survival four more times (say) and we stop the first time Obem succeeds."
[peregaming] Zero says, "I was thinking of cannibalizing it -- although admittedly that would make 42 cry."
[peregaming] GM says, "Heh."
[peregaming] GM says, "Let's say we make this a collective effort: searching for a good place, and then building a shelter."
[peregaming] GM says, "So some of you could roll Search to give bonuses to Obem's Survival roll."
[peregaming] GM says, "Or whatever other skills you think are relevant"
[peregaming] GM says, "Basically, breaking it up into tasks."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Sounds good."
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "OK!"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Awareness or Search are things I have."
[peregaming] Zero says, "I don't suppose Navigation helps on land."
[peregaming] GM says (to Zero), "Nah."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I'm a city kid, and have zero relevant skills ;-)"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Search, vs. 33:"
[peregaming] GM says (to Zero), "Roll Search! You get a +5 per person helping you, so that's two mooks and Alyan and Obem"
[peregaming] Zero says, "I am void-born, and am not even accustomed to walking around on the surface of a gigantic rock in space."
[peregaming] Zero asks (of GM), "Are you suggesting I could roll again?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Potentially"
[peregaming] Zero says, "(With +5 * 4, that makes my TN 53, and I rolled a 61."
[peregaming] Zero says, "(But re-rolling with help!)"
[peregaming] GM says, "That was a simple failure. So you didn't find a great shelter, only a small hill that provide a tiny bit of protection from the wind."
[peregaming] Obem says, "I'll just roll Survival"
[peregaming] GM says, "Go for it"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Dang"
[peregaming] GM says, "Dice don't lie"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Does she also get bonuses from mooks/us?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Survival's not a basic skill, so no"
[peregaming] Zero says, "That was *with* the bonus from mooks/you :("
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Ah, OK."
[peregaming] Obem says, "We'll have to accept shitty shelter for the night"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Yeah. I'm afraid to use another FP."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Because we'll probably get attacked by something soon enough."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Yeah, let's do that."
[Crows-Nest] Alyan exclaims, "With an audible thud!"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Oh dear, basic skill"
[peregaming] Obem says, "No�pe"
[peregaming] Zero says, "ggg might be disappointed when there's no one left for her to play with next week."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "What is an aquila?"
[peregaming] GM says, "https://img15.deviantart.net/4155/i/2012/352/9/f/imperial_aquila_by_stormssc-d54eeg0.png"
[peregaming] Obem asks, "Can I try and identify it?"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Does that symbol represent anything in particular in this world?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I would like to try Heresy."
[peregaming] Zero says, "(Er, this setting, I mean.)"
[peregaming] GM says (to Zero), "it's the symbol of the Imperium"
[peregaming] Zero says (to Alyan), "Ooh."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Oh, so the 'good' guys!"
[peregaming] Obem says (to zero), "They don't like mutants, remember"
[peregaming] Zero says (to Obem), "I did make sure to include the scare quotes around 'good'."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Nope!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Awareness for me:"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Nope."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Heresy:"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Nope"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "(nope on that, too)"
[peregaming] Obem asks (of gm), "Survival?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Hmm, technically it's Tracking."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Inquiry, perhaps? To try to figure out what it means?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Hmm, Inquiry is for asking around and gossiping"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Right, but I don't see anything else that can be classified as 'communication'."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "For, I dunno, charm or something."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "So as I understand it, we made it to the foot of the mountain without finding a good place to shelter, slept rough for the night, and are now making our way up the slope?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yes"
[Crows-Nest] Zero says (to Alyan), "You try to make a friendly little heart to express universal love."
[Crows-Nest] Zero says (to Alyan), "But it ends up looking more like https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTISKzt0RFpbs5rz4_I72z-P07c6RC_ryGmcFk01M3ElLuqkSqe"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "Good thing we don't have a dog we could lose here"
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "Yay."
[peregaming] Zero says, "I stick my head in."
[Crows-Nest] Obem stays close behind.
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Success!"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "With two extra degrees!"
[peregaming] Zero says, "(This is, what, our second successful roll this session?)"
[peregaming] Zero says, "I suppose it would be remarkably unlikely for them to be speaking the local language of whatever space station my orphanage was on."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Timing."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "That's a successful performance, whatever effect that might have."
[peregaming] GM says, "They are... intrigued, shall we say"
[peregaming] GM says, "And it adds some flashiness to Zero's approach."
[peregaming] Obem says, "For future reference, I translate everything."
[peregaming] Obem says, "Unless I say otherwise"
[peregaming] Zero says, "So, I'm here as a friendly figurehead, but I think maybe Alyan come up with the actual words for us to say here on our side."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Because I am fundamentally bad at socializing, especially with planet-y people."
[peregaming] Zero says (to Obem), "Are you keeping your weapons? (Lowered and/or holstered?)"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Lowered."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Oh, hmm, I guess that finally expains why I didn't think there was anything to take for skills--I thought basic and trained were the same thing."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Aha."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Can I trade out Nerves of Steel for some Fellowship skills?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Sure."
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "Somewhere in this group is an Ancient Astronaut kook who is suddenly very smug"
[peregaming] Alyan says (to GM), "There are other questions from backlog--Obem asked about the storm."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "HE ASKED, LEADINGLY"
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "Whoops, the commonness of the expression made me forget Alyan's thirdness."
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "Oops, I didn't notice"
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "It's been hard for me as well!"
[Crows-Nest] Alyan says, "I figured Alyan would be used to it, and let it slide ;-)"
[peregaming] Obem exclaims, "That's what they said!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Pfft."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Do we have food to share with them as well? Or are we pretty much relying on their generosity at this point?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Pretty much."
[peregaming] GM says, "You are all very hungry."
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "(While our mooks are still keeping watch outside.)"
[peregaming] GM says, "Do you want to try and contact 42 on the radio? the range should be all right"
[peregaming] GM says, "Fun fact: I had so much combat planned and in the end this took a very different turn."
[peregaming] Zero says, "We are just not nearly a sufficiently grimdark gang of players."
[peregaming] Obem scowls.
[peregaming] Zero says, "https://twitter.com/xplodingunicorn/status/950152500149186562?lang=en"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "What is the timescale for ship combat? I'm guessing that even if we started immediately, we probably wouldn't make it back to the Delta in time to be much use?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Each turn in a space fight is half an hour, approx"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "And it took us, what, 12-16 hours to get here?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "And if ship combat is like normal combat, it probably won't take anywhere near 24 rounds to resolve."
[peregaming] Obem says, "But 42 has the Delta repaired, aired, aired"
[peregaming] GM says, "Obem is correct."
[peregaming] Zero asks (of Obem), "You think he could fly it to our location?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "I guess we are in the eye of the storm, so it won't be as difficult."
[peregaming] Obem says, "Getting out of the Storm is gonna be the trouble, yeah."
[peregaming] GM says, "He's basically going to hover."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Am I any help at all in a ship fight?"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "Translation: Bye, suckers"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Like, to rally troops or something?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "If not, I might just stay here."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "I forget, were you the one who operated the sensors?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I wasn't here last time ;-)"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Though if ggg did something, I could do that?"
[peregaming] GM asks, "You can hail the enemy and use psychological tactics?"
[peregaming] GM asks, "Or inspire the crew to put their backs into it?"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Does Morale actually help with that?"
[peregaming] Zero says (to Alyan), "I mean, at the start of this session, when we utterly failed to learn anything about any of the planets."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Oh, no, I did nothing there."
[peregaming] Zero says, "A table on page 217 might be relevant."
[peregaming] Zero says, "E.g., 'Put Your Backs Into It!'"
[peregaming] GM says, "It basically gives bonuses to crew actions."
[peregaming] GM says, "Which, given their level of competence, is sorely needed."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Hee."
[peregaming] Obem asks, "I fire the ship's cannons with Ballistics, right?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yeah"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "OK, cool; I'll come back with everyone, then."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Oh for..."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Fate point!"
[peregaming] Zero sobs.
[peregaming] Zero says, "At least I didn't lose the FP."
[peregaming] Obem says, "Our chances of escape ... are zero."
[peregaming] GM asks, "For the sake of evaluating this, can you give me the number of degrees of failure?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Two, I believe."
[peregaming] GM says, "Okay"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Oh, wait!"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Master of Small Crafts!"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "Reroll!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Ha ha ha ha ha"
[peregaming] Zero sobs.
[peregaming] GM asks, "Isn't that once per session, though?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "This game does generally seem to mostly be about failing."
[peregaming] GM says, "(the reroll)"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Oh, is it?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Nope, 'all failed Pilot Tests'."
[peregaming] Zero says, "No mention of per-session."
[peregaming] GM says, "Okay, you have a terrible roll."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Yeah. And that's a third degree of failure now."
[peregaming] GM says, "Hint: there aren't many options."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Can I burn out the engines to get us one last burst of speed, to miss the volcano?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "In a game with failure as the modus operendi, it really needs to work at making failure interesting."
[peregaming] Zero says, "(Possibly permanently disabling the craft and giving us a terrible landing, but at least not in lava.)"
[peregaming] Zero says (to GM), "(Perhaps as a Tech Use roll?)"
[peregaming] GM says, "Sure."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "OK!"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Watch me fail!"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "We could have them beam us back to the ship?"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims (at Alyan), "Would have been good to suggest that before I blew the engine!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Heh."
[peregaming] Zero says, "OK, INT 40, +10 from my implant. That would be a failure."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Another FP!"
[peregaming] Obem says, "The only thing I can do is kill us all before we burn horribly"
[Crows-Nest] Zero exclaims, "Zteentch!"
[Crows-Nest] Zero says, "(Or however that's spelled.)"
[peregaming] Obem asks (of alyan), "How do you know what's happening? Isn't the voice tal�king only to Zero?"
[peregaming] GM says, "I was wondering that as well, but perhaps Zero was talking out loud"
[peregaming] Zero says, "I was."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I'm a little bit insane and have seen this sort of thing before and it's more dramatically interesting ;-)"
[peregaming] Zero says, "It's pretty reasonable that a missionary who knows that there is likely a daemon after me, who then sees me talking to nothing in a time of distress, might put two and two together."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Which ground?"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Ork pirate?"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "This feels like... initiative?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Eh, usually only ship roll initiative, but if you like..."
[peregaming] GM says, "Let's roll init for the ship."
[peregaming] Obem asks, "How do we determine order then?"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Aha"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "(I think that was right -- 1d10+2 because we have 20 Detection?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Woops, I goofed"
[peregaming] GM says, "That was 9, not 18"
[peregaming] GM says, "You guys get to go first"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Woo!"
[peregaming] GM says, "But first, status:"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Aw, Hatred only applies to close combat"
[peregaming] GM says, "You do have a Teleportarium..."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Is Frigate smaller than us?"
[peregaming] GM says, "1 and a half km, so yeah"
[peregaming] GM says, "You guys are twice as long"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "A Teleportarium that could teleport us onto their ship?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yes."
[peregaming] GM says, "In fact, as a student of Legends and Imperial stuff, you'll probably know that the Emperor did this when fighting his traitor son, Horus."
[peregaming] Obem asks, "Isn't the Teleportarium kind of dangerous and only for emergencies?"
[peregaming] GM says, "So this isn't an emergency ;-)"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Pfft."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "What are you, chicken?"
[peregaming] Obem says, "I can only kill every ork bastard on that ship if I arrive sane and healthy"
[peregaming] Obem says (to zero), "I have the tentacles, my sister has the beak"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Do we know anything about its weapons?"
[peregaming] GM says, "That would require scanning."
[peregaming] GM asks, "Focused Augury?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Sure. I'm going to do manoeuvring, presumably."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Is that an NPC task, or...?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Pilot + Maneuvability"
[peregaming] GM says, "But you need a goal."
[peregaming] GM asks, "Are you moving out of orbit? Closer to the ork ship? Away?"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Right. Are we all staying here, or is anyone trying to beam over?"
[peregaming] Obem says, "How many combat crew do we have? An ork ship is gonna be ALL combat crew"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "How far away is the ship?"
[peregaming] GM says, "About 6 void units."
[peregaming] GM says, "It came out of the asteroid belt, which is not close to the planet, otherwise it would be impossible to land"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "So, as I understand it, if I don't try to change things, we'll end up moving three VU perpendicular to them, which would put them out of range of our weapons?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Basically, but take into account the fact that they're moving towards you too."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "But I think there might be an manoeuvre that would let us turn early, so we could turn to face them before moving?"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Can I, e.g., turn to face them, let Obem shoot as they approach, and then hopefully sail past at speed before they can shoot back?"
[peregaming] GM asks, "Oh, do you want to pretend to ram them but deliberately miss?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Or did I misunderstand..."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Hmm. I hadn't thought of coming that close, but if the other officers think that's a good idea..."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "(A VU is, like, bigger than a planet, right?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yeah"
[peregaming] Obem says, "I assume the orks will try to ram us"
[peregaming] Zero makes a quick diagram.
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "How much can we move, and what's the order of doing things in ship combat? We do all our movement and shooting, and then they do all their movement and shooting, etc?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "https://www.webwhiteboard.com/board/gm6ywhgn"
[peregaming] Zero says, "With a 'pew pew' happening in between the 'turn' and the 'zoom' parts."
[peregaming] GM says, "Okay, that's a single 45 degree turn, followed by going fast. Doable."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "7VU is our standard full speed, right?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yeah"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "OK!"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "What sort of rolls do we make?"
[peregaming] GM asks, "So this turn, Zero makes a Pilot+Maneuvability test to make the 45 degree turn. Obem fires the guns. Alyan hails the enemy?"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Sounds good to me!"
[peregaming] GM says, "Go go go"
[peregaming] Zero does some math.
[peregaming] Obem asks, "What bonuses does the ship give to pew-pew-pew?"
[peregaming] GM says, "None, it's just plain BS"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "60 + 10 + 15 = 85. A straight success!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1DjJVPMKW3507xFZ4wpCl2o_WI6u3hbF4YjbmwdhXi4k/edit#slide=id.p might work, too."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Ooh!"
[peregaming] Obem asks, "Now I rol�l?"
[peregaming] GM says (to Obem), "yep"
[peregaming] Obem says, "50/50 chance!�"
[peregaming] Zero says (to Alyna), "I think the planet shares our space."
[peregaming] Obem says, "PEW PEW PEW, motherfuckers"
[peregaming] Zero says, "(Like, it would be the background image for our hex.)"
[peregaming] GM asks (of Obem), "What weapon did you fire? The ones on the sides? Or the front lance?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Oh, hmm."
[peregaming] Zero says, "I had assumed the front was better, but I realize I don't know."
[Crows-Nest] Zero glances at the other window. "Crap, the planet's exploding!"
[peregaming] Obem exclaims, "I al�so assumed the lance would be best!"
[peregaming] GM says, "It deals more damage, true"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "Titanforge Lance it is!"
[Crows-Nest] Zero asks, "Looks like the lance does more per hit, but the others have the potential for multiple hits?"
[peregaming] Obem exclaims, "I'm gonna lance the boil on the skin of the Empire that is the Orks!"
[peregaming] Zero says, "(I only skimmed the shooty part of the rules, since I'm a pilot, not a gunner.)"
[peregaming] GM says, "It makes only one hit, and since you didn't have more than 3 degrees of success, it didn't deal critical damage."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Can you not just shoot everything at once?"
[peregaming] GM says (to Alyan), "Sadly no"
[peregaming] Obem asks, "I can't find the damage table. Is it on the ship's stats?"
[peregaming] GM says, "It is"
[peregaming] GM says, "1d10+4"
[peregaming] Obem says, "sigh"
[peregaming] Zero says, "http://plover.net/~peregrine/RPG/TheFortunate.pdf"
[peregaming] GM says, "stop rolling 1sided dice, you heretic"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Ha ha."
[peregaming] Obem says, "huh"
[peregaming] Zero asks (of Obem), "Gonna try that again?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Wait, yeah, that's 'V"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Woohoo"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Much better!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "er."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Does that mean we dealt no damage?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yes."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Are shields like armor?"
[peregaming] Obem asks, "Oh, I can�?"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "So you have to do more than that to penetrate the armor?"
[peregaming] GM says, "No, you need to do more than one hit."
[peregaming] Zero says, "That's a lot of shielding."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Aha!"
[peregaming] Obem asks, "How often can I attack?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Every weapon can be fired once per turn."
[Crows-Nest] Alyan asks, "Seriously, what is up with the '1�0-sided', etc.? Is your client periodically just sending weird characters?"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "So if we can do multiple shots, presumably we would have used the starboard guns before turning, and the lance after turning, right?"
[peregaming] Obem exclaims, "Portcannon!"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Hit! (but no crit)"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Do we get multiple hits potentially with these?"
[peregaming] Obem asks, "What does Max Number of Hits mean?"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "Yes, and I have no idea why"
[Crows-Nest] Alyan says, "Wow, that's really bizarre."
[Crows-Nest] Alyan exclaims, "It's so consistent!"
[peregaming] GM says, "Give me a second to check one thing"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "It seems to happen around the letter �l"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "It seems to happen around the letter �l"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "It seems to happen around the letter ��"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "Hm"
[Crows-Nest] Alyan says, "That could be it ;-)"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "������"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "Ah, I can't write umlauts anymore"
[peregaming] GM says, "Okay, basically void shields are just OP and you have to live with that"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Ha ha."
[Crows-Nest] Alyan asks, "How do we get past them?"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "öäü"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "(except asked here)"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "So what's the 'max number of hits' thing about? Do we potentially do multiple hits?"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "Ãl"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "öÃweird"
[peregaming] GM says, "Macrobatteries do an extra hit per degree of success, up to a certain max number specified on the weapon description"
[peregaming] Obem says, "So it's only the one hit"
Sandon arrives at home.
[peregaming] GM says, "Which is once again absorbed by the shield -- no need to even roll damage"
Sandon arrives at home.
[peregaming] Obem exclaims, "Starboard guns!"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Miss"
[peregaming] GM says, "Basically, and to your great rage and frustration, you're not making any impact on the ork ship."
[peregaming] Obem says, "And I'lÃl boot into windows, see if that helps"
[peregaming] GM says, "On the bright side, you also have void shields, so they will also have the same trouble."
[peregaming] Zero says (to Obem), "You could have one of us roll for you."
[peregaming] GM says, "(This is in fact the reason why the Fortunate hasn't sustained damage yet)"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "But we only have one point of Void Shield, right?"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Do they absorb one hit each, or something?"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "So it'll only block one point of damage?"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "No, it negates a hit -- oh!"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "Of course!"
[peregaming] GM says, "It has to be only one hit per turn, otherwise, it'd be overcharged"
[peregaming] GM says, "So Obem actually dealt damage"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Yay!"
[peregaming] GM says, "It all depends on which weapon was fired first; that one was blocked by the shielding."
[peregaming] Obem says, "Woo! Take that, Ork scum"
[peregaming] Obem says, "The lance"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Hmm."
[peregaming] GM says, "The lance was initially pointing away."
[peregaming] GM says, "So it makes more sense that this was fired second, and that this was the one which hit..."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Yeah, I would say: starboard battery first, then the lance -- oh, and as we passed through its space, can we pass on its right, so our port battery briefly faces them?"
[peregaming] GM says, "You haven't passed through its space yet"
Sandon arrives at home.
[peregaming] GM says, "It takes a whole turn just to turn"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "But we are as part of my manoeuvre, right?"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Wasn't that what I was trying to do? Turn 45 degrees, then move at normal speed?"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "Ah!"
[peregaming] GM says, "Got it."
[peregaming] GM says, "So yes to what Zero said."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Woo!"
[peregaming] GM says, "Didn't Obem fail the port battery, though"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "So initially, they were to our right, and your fired our starboard guns. Then we turned to face them, and you fired our forward lance. Then we sailed past them on *their* right, so you can fire our port guns too!"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Oh, did she?"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Yes"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Oh."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "OK then!"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "And what about Alyan?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Also, bad news: that lance hit was absorbed by their armour. Man, ships are so tough."
[peregaming] Obem says, "NO! Starboard missed"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "They have shields *and* armor? Man."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "In any case, two hit and one missed, and you made two damage rolls, each of which was a 9?"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Armor is like personal armor? Negates X points of all attacks?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yes."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "So we have to hit them at least twice in one round; the first to negate the void shield, and the second has to be >9."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "And we also have a void shield and... some armor?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yep."
[peregaming] Obem says, "This fight is gonna take a while"
[peregaming] Zero says, "19 armor."
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "19!"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "So, um. Are they even able to hurt us?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Sheesh."
[peregaming] Zero says, "I guess we'll find out."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "They could ram us, I guess."
[peregaming] GM says, "Ork turn? If you're okay with that."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "No, let me try something."
[peregaming] GM says, "Go ahead"
[peregaming] GM says, "(If it's something about how long and boring space fights are, you may be able to persuade the ork :-P )"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Nice."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I dunno; I'm mostly being confusing ;-)"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Charm?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Sure... I guess."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Wow, OK."
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "My TN was 62!"
[peregaming] Obem says, "It really is a shame I hate orks and won't do any sort of interaction with them :-)"
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "5 degrees of success!"
[peregaming] Zero says (to Obem), "So, meanwhile, strategizing for future rounds..."
Sandon arrives at home.
[peregaming] Obem exclaims (at GM), "I keep firing at the orks !"
[peregaming] Zero says (to Obem), "It seems like our lance will do relatively little to help us, and we want to use either our port or starboard guns with multiple degrees of success."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "If it's at all reasonable to actually convince them that we're in a contest of ship strength and that they should ram themselves into an asteroid to prove how strong they are, that's great, but otherwise, I'm just trying to confuse them and get them to miss an action or something."
[peregaming] Obem says, "That would be hilarious"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Ooh! Is their aim good enough to land their ship right in the middle of the red dot?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Do you want planetary genocide? Because that's how you get planetary genocide"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Oh."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Wait, really?"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Aren't these smallish ships?"
[peregaming] GM says, "It's one and a half kilometres long."
[peregaming] Zero says, "1.5km for theirs, 4.5km for ours."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Oh, OK, retcon, then."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "<record scratch, rewind>"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Ooh."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "One on one?"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Is he asking for single combat of champions?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I have no idea."
[peregaming] GM says, "Well, it's a duel."
[peregaming] GM says, "Don't forget that you can cheat."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Just confirming if that means a *ship* duel or an ordinary individual person duel."
[peregaming] GM says, "The latter"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "On dah planet!"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "When did it change to that?"
[peregaming] Obem says, "ooh"
[peregaming] Zero says, "I am all in favor of this."
[peregaming] GM says (to Alyan), "When you told him that crashing his spaceship into a volcano wasn't a real fight."
[peregaming] Zero | Alyan says, "Just like an ork to not know how to fight real."
[peregaming] Zero | Ork Kaptin says, "Waaaaagh! I challenge you to dah duel!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Hmm, OK."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "So he's not interested in smashing his ship into an asteroid after all?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Hee hee."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "And he wants to fight *me* or our champion or what?"
[peregaming] (from Zero) Alyan says, "What if I said there was candy on the asteroid?"
[peregaming] GM says (to Alyan), "It seems like he wants to fight you specifically, because you kind of insulted him."
[peregaming] Zero says, "OOC, I'm presently thinking: 'anything that will get us out of this space battle'."
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "OK!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Ha."
[peregaming] Obem asks (of alyan), "How good are you at close combat?"
[peregaming] Zero asks (of GM), "How smart are orks?"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Because, like, I'm really good and get a bonus against orks"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Like, dumb, or really dumb?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I have a good sword and a 52 melee weapon skill."
[peregaming] GM says (to GM), "Quite stupid."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I am happy to lend you my vestments ;-)"
[peregaming] Zero says, "I'm thinking: put Obem in a helmet that covers her face, and put a radio with speakers."
[peregaming] Zero says, "+on it"
[peregaming] Obem says, "ha ha"
[peregaming] GM says, "ingenious"
[peregaming] Zero says, "And give Alyan the microphone."
[peregaming] Obem says, "I like that plan"
[peregaming] GM says, "It is pretty nice."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I feel like during the fight we send a group to sneak on their ship and blow it up, too."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I am worried about Ork Spores on the planet, though."
[peregaming] Zero says, "I can volunteer to lead that mission."
[peregaming] GM exclaims (at Zero), "Sure!"
[peregaming] Zero says, "(The sneaking on board while you two are fighting.)"
[peregaming] GM says, "Just like in Star Wars"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "There's no way this could fail!"
[peregaming] Obem exclaims, "Especially with the level of competence we've shown so far!"
[peregaming] GM says, "hahaha"
[peregaming] Alyan asks (of Zero), "Are you OK at sneaking/sabotage?"
[peregaming] GM says, "So, let's do it."
[peregaming] GM says, "Ehh, Zero just needs to get to the engines and use her knowledge of Tech"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Let's land somewhere where we don't have to worry about the storm, i.e. the other side of the planet."
[peregaming] Zero says, "I have a high Agility and the Tech Use skill. I'm not 100% sure how those will translate into actual sneaking/sabotage."
[peregaming] GM says (to Zero), "It should work out"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Excellent."
[peregaming] Alyan says (to Obem), "I have a Harlequin's Kiss, which does 1d10+8 (no str bonus), and you roll the d10 twice and keep the best."
[peregaming] GM asks (of Alyan), "Really? You don't want to fight on the edge of a volcano?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "And if any orks get too close, I'll give 'em the ol' crush."
[peregaming] Alyan says (to Obem), "I also have Saint Blessed Carapace Armor, which is 7 everywhere."
[peregaming] Zero says (to GM), "I think it's more a matter of 'you don't want to crash into a volcano before you even manage to land'."
[peregaming] Alyan says (to GM), "That sounds dramatic, but I don't want the orks to know about the people."
[peregaming] GM says, "good point"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "And yeah, we already lost two ships."
[peregaming] Obem says (to alyan), "Nice, the kiss thing will come in handy with 2 weapon combat. And also, your armor is better than mine."
[peregaming] GM says, "So, like in a western, you meet in a desert (icy) plain"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Sweet; take it, and I'll wear yours just in case."
[peregaming] Obem asks, "Nice, mine has 5 all over. Do you want a replacement melee weapon? Chainsword?"
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "Sure!"
[peregaming] Obem exclaims (at alyan), "Remember, once you pressed the ON button, Mr. Chainsword is no longer your friend!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "It's OK, we respect each other."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "We good? Obem fights, I taunt, Zero sabotages?"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "Yes!"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Yup!"
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "Let's do it!"
[peregaming] Obem exclaims, "Woohoo!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "(and probably some crew)"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Do they land their ship?"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Or take a shuttle, too?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Shuttle"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "(*can* you land a ship like this?)"
[peregaming] GM says, "Not if you want it to fly again"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Ha"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "(the HK also has 9 penetration)"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Holy hell"
[peregaming] Obem asks, "Where did you get that?"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "If there's no other life around, then who's playing that Spanish guitar?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "It's my One Item."
[peregaming] Obem says, "ah"
[peregaming] Obem says, "too bad I can't use my lascannon"
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "whoops, 10 penetration!"
[peregaming] Obem asks, "Huh, do I alwys add STR bonus for melee weapons?"
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "I guess!"
[peregaming] GM says, "Not for the HK"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I only found out that you usually add STR because for the HK you don't ;-)"
[peregaming] GM says, "Because, you see, the HK is a cruel Eldar weapon which basically injects monowire into the target's body and turns their insides to mush."
[peregaming] Obem asks, "AGI, right?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "(it's Extremely Rare (-30), Common craftmanship (+0), Only One Person (+30) )"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Wow."
[peregaming] Zero says, "(Do I roll init too?)"
[peregaming] GM says, "Sure"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "I have no idea what that'll do, but it seems appropriate. There's no explicit 'Taunt' skill; is it OK to use Charm?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Just use Fellowship."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Got it."
[peregaming] Alyan spends a fate point!
[peregaming] Obem says (to GM), "Sorry! Was looking at rules"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Sigh."
[peregaming] GM says, "it's okay"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "(fellowship was 62, so 2 degrees of failure)"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Tearing means you roll another d10 and pick the better."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "(from the 4 your already rolled)"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Oh, good, you're drawing this out so Zero has more time."
[Crows-Nest] Olly says, "Hi."
[peregaming] Obem says, "I'm of the "save fate points till the last moment"-breed"
[Crows-Nest] Obem says, "What say. You want to join #peregames"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Ha."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Can we be the ones broadcasting the fight, too?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "I was thinking it would be stealthier to take one guncutter."
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "You can!"
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "We will!"
[peregaming] Obem says, "I sent my best man with you, Private Tutor"
[peregaming] Zero asks (of GM), "Can I get a bonus to my stealthing rolls for only having the one guncutter, instead of a bunch of them?"
[peregaming] GM says (to Zero), "I'd say you get +10."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Yay. Pilot?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yup"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Phew."
[peregaming] Zero says, "(Small Craft FTW.)"
[peregaming] GM says, "good call"
[peregaming] Zero says, "That's three degrees of success."
[peregaming] Zero says, "I'm aiming for someplace that looks close to something important, like the engines. Say, maybe a venting port that I can blast open and fly into."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Alyan is set up with a few broadcasting cameras, and is recording the fight, and switching camera angles. Also, recording things as we go so we can continue to broadcast the fight even after we finish ;-)"
[peregaming] GM exclaims (at Zero), "Given your 3 degrees of success, you find a venting port!"
[peregaming] GM says, "And you crew will have no trouble blasting it open, since you're in such close range."
[peregaming] GM says, "That wraps up your turn for now, I think, unless you want to RP it"
[peregaming] Obem asks, "Can I dodge or parry or something?"
[peregaming] GM says, "You can dodge"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "Use the Dodge Skill!"
[peregaming] GM says, "AKA 'the force'"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Nope"
[peregaming] Obem says, "this is going great"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Holy"
[peregaming] Obem asks, "So I have 7 armor, which means 5, plus Toughness 5, means 19-10?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yep"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Here's hoping you have lots of wounds to spare."
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "I'm glad I'm not the one in the armor!"
[peregaming] Obem says, "I'm down to 7"
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "That's more than I have!"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Hee."
[peregaming] Obem exclaims, "Good thing we switched!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I'll say."
vaporware disappears through an invisible gap in the MUD. You think you may have heard the sounds of chatting before the gap closed again.
[peregaming] Obem says, "Good thing for you, I mean"
[peregaming] Zero says (to Alyan), "So you're like the Quarion to Obem's Vraklul."
[peregaming] Obem says (to zero), "I appreciate that, but I lack a certain damage output to be the Vrak"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "(on my turn)"
[peregaming] GM says, "ok"
[peregaming] GM asks, "Was that taunting?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "That works! I get great footage, with 6 degrees of success."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Ooh, does that include putting it on a big holo-screen in front of the Kaptain himself, where he can admire his handiwork while he's supposed to be defending himself from Obem?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "That's for giving Zero a bonus to sneak."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "(was my thought)"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims (at Alyan), "I'll take it!"
[peregaming] GM says, "The orks are enraptured by the fight."
[peregaming] Obem exclaims, "Fate!"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yours is sealed."
[peregaming] GM says, "Unless you decide to cheat."
[peregaming] Zero says (to Obem), "If things start going really badly, you might consider going 100% defensive."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Because stalling for time would be in our favor."
[peregaming] Obem says, "Unfortunately, I HATE orks"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Hee hee."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "That's a 0, right?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Yup."
[peregaming] Obem asks, "That means super good?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Super bad."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Oh."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "So, *not* a 0?"
[peregaming] Obem exclaims, "Last Fate point! The Emperor hates cowards!"
[peregaming] Zero says (to Alyan), "Sorry! I thought it was."
[peregaming] Zero says, "I was thinking of planting timed explosives."
[peregaming] GM says, "Hmm, that requires Demolition skill -- oh"
[peregaming] Zero says, "(Or possibly remote-controlled ones.)"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Hm, I'm pretty sure I can parry as a reaction. At least according to the two Weapon fighting rules"
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "Or both!"
[peregaming] Zero asks (of GM), "Oh, not Tech-Use, for selecting the right places to blow up?"
[peregaming] GM says (to Zero), "Oh, in that case I allow it."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Yay."
[peregaming] Zero asks, "And what kind of bonus does Alyan give me?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "(For distracting the Orks, so they're not in my way as I wander through their engineering deck.)"
[peregaming] GM says, "He got a crit, so I'm going to be generous and say +20."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "This game, man."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "That's vs 40+20=60. FP!"
[peregaming] GM says, "yay"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Four extra degrees!"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Hm, I'm pretty sure I can parry as a reaction. At least according to the two Weapon fighting rules"
[peregaming] Zero says, "I thought so too."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Don't need to against a 77 ;-)"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Also that :-)"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Heh."
[peregaming] GM says (to Obem), "you can parry with a melee weapon, you're right"
[peregaming] Obem says, "If you could use your taunts for me this turn, I'd appreciate it"
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "I will!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "uh."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Oh, darn, I was really pleased for a moment there."
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "Simple success!"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Phew."
[peregaming] Obem says, "Yay"
[peregaming] GM says, "Hm, Obem gets a +5 to her next attack."
[peregaming] GM says, "why"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Man"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Yay!"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Did you get a crit from the 12?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "(and the +5)"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "(and if so, can you choose the right leg again?)"
[peregaming] GM says, "she=Obem, sorry"
[peregaming] Obem asks, "But the ork is still standing?"
[peregaming] Obem says (to alyan), "I'm not sure how I can tell :-)"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "It's on a timer."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Or a remote, or both, or something."
[peregaming] Zero says, "I set them on a timer -- I figured they'll detonate on my next turn, once we're *not* on the ship that's blowing up anymore :)"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "Oh!"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Success! With a ton of degrees!"
[peregaming] Zero says, "(Five, I think.)"
[peregaming] GM says, "yay"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Phew."
[peregaming] Obem exclaims, "Let's hope high-fiving is a free action!"
[peregaming] Obem says, "also, phew"
[peregaming] Zero says (to Obem), "Ha ha."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Should I spend fp?"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Not sure"
[peregaming] GM says, "As you like."
[peregaming] Obem says, "If I'm lucky, he's dead"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "If you're unlucky?"
[peregaming] Obem says, "it's 50/50 on both attacks"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I guess I have 2 left."
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "I'll spend one!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Sigh."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "This game, man."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Fate does not smile upon you."
[peregaming] Obem pats Alyan on the back.
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "So Obem gets a -5!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "It's kind of goofy that spending a fate point can make things *worse*"
[peregaming] Obem says, "sigh"
[peregaming] Obem says, "sigh II"
[peregaming] Zero says, "I guess you can avoid that by spending it first, but that's almost always worse than spending it after."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Yeah, if there was an option to spend post for either a re-roll or a 10, that'd be great."
[peregaming] Obem says, "I guess the mechanics here are a bit more tough than others RPGs"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Can I use my Reaction to beam them up if Obem takes a bad hit?"
[peregaming] GM asks (of Obem), "I hope you added the +10 from hating orks?"
[peregaming] GM says, "(in your previous attacks)"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "There."
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "2 degrees of success!"
[peregaming] Obem says, "It's negated by the -10 from TWF"
[peregaming] GM says, "ah"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "+10 to Obem's next attack!"
[peregaming] Obem exclaims, "woohoo!"
[peregaming] Obem asks, "So, is there such a thing as a critical hit?"
[peregaming] GM says, "It's based on how much critical damage you deal in a single turn"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Oh, I thought there were degrees of success in a hit."
[peregaming] genericgeekgirl says, "I'm not scrolling back, but I saw my name :D Don't all die."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "It's OK, only Obem is about to die!"
[peregaming] Zero says, "She's on a frozen planet locked into single melee combat with an Ork who thinks she's Alyan."
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "Woo, right leg again!"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "So have the orks reacted yet to the fact that their ship is now in the middle of exploding?"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "And the ones down on the planet don't realize anything is even happening?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I think there's only the one ork on the planet, with two pets."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "OK, then I guess I'll just watch the show!"
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "Well, shoot 'em in the engines!"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Can Zero shoot the Ork ship?"
[peregaming] GM says, "She can."
[peregaming] Zero says, "If they haven't managed to blow up properly by my next turn, I will."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Am I getting updates on Zero's status?"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Can you see the exploding Ork engines from the ground?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Not from this side of the planet."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Hmm. Then I guess I should update you on my next turn too :)"
[peregaming] Alyan asks (of Obem), "You want another attempt at a bonus, or should I try to distract Orks again?"
[peregaming] Obem says, "I think a bonus might be good. If the ork gets one good hit in, I'm done"
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "OK!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Just for something other than 'I taunt again'."
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "you succeed!"
[peregaming] Zero says, "By the way, if you guys want to talk to the ship, I assume you can."
[peregaming] GM says, "Obem, have a +10"
[peregaming] Zero says, "I mean, if you wanted to ask to be pulled out, or to check on the status of the mission, etc."
[Crows-Nest] (from Alyan) Ork says "Come back here! I'll bit your kneecaps off!"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Hey, it's Obem's turn!"
[peregaming] Obem says, "No? If anything, it's your turn"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "OK!"
[peregaming] GM says, "The grenade won't explode until after Zero is done."
[peregaming] Obem asks, "Can I grab his axe?"
[Crows-Nest] Olly says, "Heh. Teleportarium."
[peregaming] GM says, "If you have a free tentacle, sure."
[peregaming] Obem exclaims, "I do!"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "Then you do!"
[peregaming] Obem asks, "And I have a free action, right?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Yes"
[peregaming] Obem does a very universal gesture, one that has been around for 40.000 years, using one finger, towards the ork.
[peregaming] GM says, "ggg's character would be green with envy; it's xenotech"
[peregaming] Zero says, "(Should I roll for those things?)"
[Crows-Nest] Alyan exclaims, "Woo!"
[Crows-Nest] Olly exclaims, "Woo!"
[peregaming] GM says, "And the ship combat is officially going in the trash XD"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Ha ha."
[peregaming] GM says, "(uh, ship combat rules, I mean)"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Am I right that Orks grow from spores? Can we clean up the battlefield to prevent this?"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "We have a forward lance!"
[peregaming] Zero says, "I would suggest letting Obem do the honors."
[peregaming] Obem says, "we need to go back for our guncutter anyway"
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "And theirs!"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Yay!"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "So we're only down by *one* guncutter after today's festivities!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Lose two, gain one, blow up orks; a fair deal all around, I say."
[peregaming] Obem asks, "Do we want ork tech on board?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "(And six expendable crewmembers.)"
[peregaming] Zero says (to Obem), "If nothing else, we can sell it."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Unless we teleported them out?"
[peregaming] GM says (to Alyan), "Ehh, the blast from the grenade had zero effect."
[peregaming] Zero asks (of GM), "Did the crew manage to beam the Epsilon's crew on board before they crashed?"
[peregaming] GM asks, "You mean Unishment and friends?"
[peregaming] GM says, "They perished."
[peregaming] Obem says, "No, not Unishment, and his friends, Ruel and N'usual"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "I meant them, yes."
[peregaming] GM says, "Those guys should be okay unless you forgot to evacuate them before lancing the Kaptin's remains from orbit"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "er, what guys?"
[peregaming] GM asks, "Also, Obem, how much damage did you take? Did you take damage in excess of your wounds?"
[peregaming] Zero says (to Alyan), "I think Obem and the GM are saying that the mooks who went down to watch the fight are fine."
[peregaming] Obem says, "No, but I did take 10"
[peregaming] GM says (to Obem), "You're merely Heavily Damaged."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Surely if you take damage in excess of your wounds you die? Or does something else happen?"
[peregaming] GM says (to Alyan), "You suffer what are known as critical damage effects. (Example: the orc losing his feet)"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "How many feet can you lose before you die?"
[peregaming] Obem asks, "Ah, I was wondering how that guy took so much punishment?"
[peregaming] Obem asks (of zero), "Man, can we just do this in meter?"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Can I try Medicae to help Obem? How does healing work?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Ooh, you've got Medicae? Yay."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "(I mean, I only have a 35, but still)"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Any FP left?"
[peregaming] GM asks, "Wait, what's Obem's TB?"
[peregaming] Obem says, "So, I don't want to be that guy, but it is 2 am here ..."
[peregaming] GM says (to Obem), "same here"
[peregaming] Obem asks, "My whatnow?"
[peregaming] GM says, "Toughness Bonus"
[peregaming] Obem says, "5"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Looks like a success could reduce 1 wound, if I'm reading this right."
[peregaming] GM says, "So you are actually Lightly wounded (but just barely), hence with a sucessful Medicae check Obem regains (Alyan's Int bonus) in damage"
[peregaming] Zero says, "(Using it for First Aid.)"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Oh, cool."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims (at Alyan), "Quick, roll it so Taleslinger can go to bed!"
[peregaming] Zero says, "(lps can't be asleep; it's only five o'clock there!)"
[peregaming] GM says (to Obem&friends), "I apologize for how this session kind of dragged on. (I aborted the space combat as soon as I realized that it was going to take forever)"
[peregaming] Alyan exclaims, "Nope!"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "FP?"
[peregaming] GM exclaims, "Last fate point!"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Oh, sure."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Nooooooo."
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Bonus from the ship?"
[peregaming] Alyan asks, "Like, medical facility or anything?"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Perhaps that's an upgrade we should consider investing in :)"
[peregaming] GM asks, "I'd say it has really basic medical equipment, so +5?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Heh."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Yay!"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "That's three wounds healed right there, right?"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "A +5 is exactly enough ;-)"
[peregaming] GM says (to Zero), "correct"
[peregaming] Obem says, "From the other side, lps constantly trying to finagle things from the GM is actually good :D"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Ha ha ha"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Hee."
[peregaming] Obem says, "That brings me back to 10"
[peregaming] GM says, "So Obem only has 7 damage to heal, at a lightly damaged rate of 1 per day."
[peregaming] Obem says, "Time for a vacay on the lower decks"
[peregaming] GM says (to Obem), "Two days of COMPLETE rest will do the trick."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "For the next session when I'm not here, if we can say I'm chatting with the natives, figuring out their history and how best to reincorporate them into the Imperium, that'd be great."
[peregaming] GM says (to Alyan), "That works for me."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Excellent."
[peregaming] Obem says, "I can see that."
[peregaming] Obem says, "Also their city is suddenly overrun by cats"
[peregaming] Alyan says, "That's why I asked about vermin ;-)"
[peregaming] Obem says, "oh, I didn't get that at the time"
[peregaming] GM says, "me neither"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Man, you guys."
[peregaming] Obem exclaims, "Now I'm thinking with cats!"
[peregaming] Zero says (to Alyan), "Let's blame it on it being late for them."
[peregaming] Alyan says, "Hee"
[peregaming] Obem says, "Indeed"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Aye."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Hopefully next week we won't get into any ship combat."
[peregaming] GM says, "I really thought there were plenty of exciting moments in this session."
[peregaming] Zero says, "Yes! Aside from the ship combat, it was good."
[peregaming] Zero says, "And I don't think we can blame you for the ship combat rules :)"
[peregaming] GM says, "hehe"
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "Thank you for the game!"
[peregaming] GM says, "You're welcome :-)"
[peregaming] GM says, "tune in next week for revenge, profit, and more"
[peregaming] GM says, "ALSO"
[peregaming] GM says (to Zero), "make me a Willpower save"
[peregaming] Zero says, "One extra degree of success."
[peregaming] Zero exclaims, "No, two!"
[peregaming] GM says, "You don't gain any corruption from Tzeentchian whispers."
[peregaming] GM says, "FOR NOW"
[peregaming] Zero asks, "Does corruption lead to mutations?"
[peregaming] GM says, "yes"
[peregaming] Zero says, "Darn. Maybe I'll roll higher next time."
