Also, silly me, I've been completely forgetting to add the bonuses for fighting opposites, Toastarrr should be getting bonuses for using his dex based smg against your agility based uzi. Though you can negate that by using your shotgun, since it's dex based too.
That is the one part of the rules that just seems very arbitrary and... gamey to me. I just can't even remotely imagine how that would work.
The str dex agi triangle only makes sense in melee, really.
That's why I put 2 points in fighting opposites, to circumvent that whole debacle.

So far toaster is the only one to actually say what kind of weapons he wants. Bravo toaster.

I'm currently taking a break from the more in depth and mindnumbing aspects of the game (Explaining the minutiae of building a ship and stating items- acid sprayers anyone?) to work on the flesher stuff a bit. They've got enough mechanics that I could build a game around just their stuff.
my weapons are on the bottom of my sheet.

Well, let's say you're going away from Earth on huge spaceship and suddenly shit goes wrong and you have Super Mutants. Social Experiments prepared them for this.

Well, you didn't post it in the thread, you posted to a different page that we don't have access too.

Could you post a template sheet to work off of, piecewise? The sheets were taken down already.

You could open up mine with paint, edit it as needed, and save it under your name. That how I made mine.

My sheet application is finished. The font size is a bit wonky, but it works.

How so? I have eight points distributed, as instructed.

EDIT: I'm not sure what's with the stats, though. We were only instructed to distribute eight, and you have far more than that allocated.

Stats start at 3, then you increase them

You have to have a point in a general skill before you can get specific skills.

And since  we both have 2 points in fighting opposites, piecewise won't have to worry about calculating them.

Kind of defeats the point of having the rule, don't you think? If everyone just takes the same damn skill.

Why are 100% of my posts in ER? I already have another account. Created this one specifically for playing.

Not online every Friday evening till Saturday night. If I am listed as online, I am still not online, as my computer has an annoying habit of waking up to the tiniest distraction and then going off to sleep again.


List of links to charts and graphs here. Work in progress. Check it out?

It's irritating to have to use a specific weapon against a certain enemy, so if we're given a way out we'll take it.
