Sorry Hapah, but green is cooler.

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

Whoever hasn't posted, you're on Team 2.

Do you want me to hide the other team's actions [ie. PM everyone their maps instead of post it public] and have people send in their actions via PM?

I'm going to be on holiday for the next week or so, so I won't be posting any turns. Default me to Overwatch or something.
If anyone else wants to play, you can let them 'borrow' my character for the time being.
Assuming he will be gone for exactly a week, that means that it will take at least 3 more days for him to be back.

Its up to you if you want to wait for him, but if you do want to wait I think that it would be better to give his actions to one of the team 2 players till he gets back, at which point he could take over.

Assuming everyone posts their turns simultaneously but turns are run sequentially (but all at once), I am totally against it for two reasons.
A) It gives an advantage to the people that post their turns later (since the people that go first will know the location of their enemies, while the other will only guess).
B) I don't think that the need for secrecy is so great that spoiler tags won't work.

Actually, thinking about it, I do think that this might work better with turns run by team (EG. team 1 runs, then team 2, then team 1). This would allow everyone to see the actions of their enemies (so they don't have to guess where they will move) and removes the need for secrecy. On the con side it would slow the game down a bit, but IMHO it would be worth the reduced trouble for guessing where enemies would move.

Oh, right, he's gone temporarily.

Yeah, I was considering this. Will probably do this.

If nobody opposes any of this, I'll probably start tomorrow. A bit busy today.

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

Game 01a - Turn 00

Rules are identical, except it's a team game. No, you don't get points for shooting a teammate. Yes, friendly fire can and hopefully will happen.

WHO GOES FIRST?: 1 = Maroon Team, 2 = Lime Team

[1d2=2]

Lime, you're up.
