Steam would probably be the quickest/easiest way to do that that I can think of, provided everyone has it of course.

[Dwarmin]

I don't have it, which is why I was going to suggest this.

[Dwarmin]

For those of everyone that missed it.

Spoiler: Transcript (click to show/hide)

[04:23] <Aninimouse> I guess this works too.
[04:23] <@Dwarmin> Yuh
[04:23] <@Dwarmin> So, what do you think of my AWESOME PLAN
[04:29] <@Dwarmin> THAT BAD HUH
[04:29] <Aninimouse> Yup, completely horrible.
[04:30] <@Dwarmin> I was actually sort of trying to wake everyone up and really get them into the game
[04:30] <@Dwarmin> Alas...
[04:31] <Aninimouse> I'm guessing this is where you mean for the Camp itself, right? https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/61829979/Fallout/QuickMap02.png
[04:33] <@Dwarmin> Yeah
[04:34] <@Dwarmin> They come doo-de-dooing up the road for highway rape N' robbery and then our decoys fall back into the little killing zone right above. I'm guessing those cocoa puffs are rocks for everyone to hide behind.
[04:35] <Aninimouse> Yeah
[04:38] <@Dwarmin> How steep is the area to the North, anyway? Would we have any trouble hieing contra the escarpment?
[04:38] <@Dwarmin> :I
[04:42] <Aninimouse> The area with the cocoa puffs? It's a lot steeper than the contour lines show, and goes up about 12 or 13 meters. So you most likely wouldn't be able to get up that quickly.
[04:44] <Aninimouse> But that also makes it a decent vantage point over the camp, of course.
[04:45] <@Dwarmin> Is there any cover at the bottom of the hill, then?
[04:45] <@Dwarmin> Some of the cocoa puffs are below the dotted line!
[04:48] <Aninimouse> There'd be a bit of cover down near the bottom too, but probably not very effective cover for something coming from the underpass/west. It'd likely work well for people coming down the path from the East though.
[04:52] <@Dwarmin> Just something we'll have to deal with. Some traps or IED's in the underpass would really help thin out the herd.
[04:53] <@Dwarmin> So what sort of bonuses is our team looking at with a pre-planned surprise attack from high elevation?
[04:53] <@Dwarmin> I'm wondering about the system
[05:00] <Aninimouse> Well naturally the people doing the surprising would get to go first assuming things go according to plan and they're undiscovered, probably getting most of the Round to themselves to themselves in the process and getting free attacks/actions off on them. The rest depends on a lot of other things though, positions, weapons, etc. The elevation would likely only provide a few minor bonuses to partymembers who are up there, and p
[05:00] <Aninimouse> the big thing would be that anyone with Melee wouldn't be able to just scale the slope to attack them.
[05:00] <@Dwarmin> Not without getting pooled fool of boolets
[05:03] <@Dwarmin> That was a component of my plan, anyways. High ground is good, it's good.
[05:03] <@Dwarmin> Even if they go and take cover in the underpass, we can send our guys over and hit them from two directions.
[05:04] <@Dwarmin> Other than that, they can retreat, at which point we'll have taken our share of blood
[05:05] <@Dwarmin> Naturally, worst outcome is for them to flank our ambush squad while attacking the camp directly, but I don't think they've got much mobility for scouting missions. Probably just picking off people for sport.
[05:06] <@Dwarmin> Anyway, if I die I'll know I'm a horrible tactician and hand it off to someone else
[05:10] <@Dwarmin> Anywayx2, do we need to hammer any other things out, Anin?
[05:10] <@Dwarmin> Nows the best time for 'What do you do HERE'
[05:11] <@Dwarmin> Huh, talking to myself again. lol

[Patrick Hunt]

Hey so am I. Got skype?

[Aninimouse]

I'd imagine Dwarmin's suggestion would work with everyone.

[Patrick Hunt]

Yeah good for me. I'll be prone on that out cropping to the north. Nice and close so very low penalty.

[Aninimouse]

I meant the chat thing.

[GiglameshDespair]

Welll, this all happened in the few hours i slept, so yeah. That's why i missed it.
