Squadron Chat

[Mara 29]

I miss this RP. :(

[Andy 60]

I've barely had time to visit GB long enough to post, never mind RP. :(

[Mara 29]

I just content myself with the Kaden I created on Sims. :p

[Mara 29]

Wow, a new post!

[Princess 35]

Uh Ender, your group isn't with Nima

[Ender 8]

Time does terrible things to the mind.

[Mara 29]

Argh... promise I'll get a post in soon as I can.

[Drake 53]

Is Aeric's team charging at Jaing?

[Rogue 4]

Feel free to lead the charge. ;)

[Chickenman 9]

That's what I was trying to establish, yeah.

[Drake 53]

What I meant to ask was... is Aeric's team charging head-first at a heavily armed and armoured opponent? If so, Takeshi would probably let you be a brief distraction while going at him from a different angle. :p

[Bad furday 57]

I imagined I was in a fog.

A very thick fog. :p

[Drake 53]

How would Arlan like to take the incapacitating blow?

[Princess 35]

I think that we need to decide as a squadron how we're going to deal with Jaing

[Drake 53]

The GMs have already discussed it. However, input is always welcome.

[Princess 35]

Well, I'm sure I'm not just speaking for myself, but I'm totally lost as to just the general idea of what is going on because I thought that the two groups were still separate.

[Drake 53]

They are, yes. It's been a very long time since we planned this out so there is understandably confusion. I know that I, for one, don't even remember what exactly Nat's team is supposed to be doing. Was it a diversion?

[Chickenman 9]

Just to clear up any confusion, Ender's post with Jaim took place in the hangar, some people may have thought it was in the hallway. He's still with the other team.

The other team's objective is to hold the hangar, as it's Deign's primary method of escape.

As for "the GM's have already discussed it, but input is welcome," it's not quite as Big Brothery as that. The GM (me! ) did chat with Rogue and Drake about what to do with the Jaing scene, but (in my mind at least) we certainly hadn't made any concrete decisions, and really wanted to talk it out with the players themselves. I floated the idea that maybe Arlan gets the kill (or wound, or incapacitation, or what have you), but I was planning on talking to Furday first. And Furday has already come up with a fun idea.

I apologize if it seemed that the GM and a couple other players were pulling the strings behind the scenes and railroading all of the players. I think there was a lack of communication, made worse by the fact that everyone is sick of this chapter and ready to move on with our (character's) lives.

I will do better in the future. This squadron has always been about the pilots, in my mind. And that's entirely what the upcoming chapter is about. In addition to that, I have some ideas on how to make this RPG more inclusive and democratic, that I'll be implementing into the story soon. Again, my apologies for the inconvenience and frustration.

My PM box is always open.

[Rogue 4]

Well said, good sir!

[Radioactive Isotope 29]

How beat up/maimed/crispy do we want our Mando?

In other words, if Atuarre shoots him, how much damage should it do?

[Drake 53]

No deaths. He is a canon character. He will be rendered unconscious for the time being.

[Bad furday 57]

If Atuarre wants to swipe at Jaing with her claws when the sled hits him, that'd be different.

Go ahead Jmster, I think Atuarre needs more action.

[Radioactive Isotope 29]

Just something to think about, if we completely destroy the hoversled, there needs to be a Plan B for Atuarre to travel if Aeric still doesn't want her walking. Just sayin. ;)

[Bad furday 57]

I would think there would be more damage to whomever the sled hits, than a heavy metal sled hovering forwards at a high rate of speed. ;)

[Chickenman 9]

Hoversled or hoverstrecher? :???:
