Game mechanics, dice rolls, and other crap

[Deepcrush]

I like the idea of narrative format. Keeps the idea more RP rather then table top rulers. Though I like the rest of the plan you have. You might just want to skip the rolls on a lot of things. You might not really need it.

[Mikey]

That's what I'm hoping.

For the times when we actually need BS or WS scores, does everyone want to put up an idea of where they're at a/o have us try to consense on something?

[Sionnach Glic]

I like the idea of a narative posting style that allows us to interact easily and freely, with the ability to fall back on the game system for things like combat. It seems a good idea, if I'm reading Mikey right.

Can't find my rulebooks right now, so I can't figure out proper combat stats for my character. Just give me shit WS/BS stats, my character isn't much of a soldier, more of a support role.

[Mikey]

I'm gonna be pressed for time today, so it may be a day or so (I'm also working on an intro post for the actual game thread, and want to put up a locked "bios" thread.)

And yeah, I really only want to use a mechanical system for where narrative falls down.

[Deepcrush]

I can take care of the character stats. Everyone should fillout the below list and PM it to me. I'll take care of the rest so that Mikey doesn't get to swamped. I'll PM everyone back with the stats so we can work everything out and keep everything fair.

Mark yourselves on a scale between 1 (being crap) and 5 (being awsome).

WS =
BS =
Str =
T =
In =
Ld =

Armor
-----------------
Weapon/s
-----------------
Special gear
-----------------

Please remember to list any extra's you may be attaching too your characters.

What's Ld?

[Mikey]

I think he's referring to Leadership - morale, resistance to being routed, etc.

[Deepcrush]

Like I said, everyone should PM me their starting stats and I'll help through it.

[Aaron]

I've swapped out my shotgun in favour of a flintlock, a little more in line with my character I think.

[Deepcrush]

I setup the Character Stat page so that everyone could have somewhere for reference. Please don't post on there. If there is any edits or updates you would like, please PM me.

If you're character isn't up there then you need to PM me so we can workup your stats.

[Mikey]

On its way, Deep, and thanks a ton for the assist. I apologize to everyone for the slight delay in my timeframe; my PC sh*t the bed, my phone needed to be replaced, and my PDA isn't syncing properly - all the tools I have to browse, respond, and create were simultaneously unavailable. Today was fix everything/pay bills/take the kid to swim class day, so I'm trying to catch up a bit on the forum. I promise this won't be like waiting for Rochey's "Insurrection" script, I'll probably just need a day or two.

[Deepcrush]

Not a problem Mickey. I posted Rochey's stats as close as I could guess. Seeing how he's online yet still behind... again.

[Mikey]

PS - I think Rochey said he carried an autopistol.

[Sionnach Glic]

Methinks Deep forgot to check the equipment I listed for myself.
No worries, I fixed it for him.

BTW, would it be a good idea to shove all the character bios in as well, to give a quick reference for everything about the characters?
