There aren't really any reservations. First team of five to form gets the first mission, second team gets the second, and so on and so forth.

Sunan pulls out his guitar and gives it a gentle strum, "Hello, all. I am Sunan, Star of the East, Student of the Ancient Mysteries, renowned troubadour and singer." Sunan cocks his head, thinking. "And I would like a shot of whisky."

"Nice to meet you, gentlemen. Otto's the name. I'll have what the most esteemed troubadour is having." He smiles politely.

[Comrade P.]

- Yeah, this charismatic six-string samurai is right - refreshments needed. Vodka, please. Leave the bottle.
Kuzma turns to Otto.
- This is a fine rifle you possess. Austrian isn't it?

[USEC_OFFICER]

Sunan looks down at his guitar in mock horror. "Someone's nicked my seventh string! Those bastards!"

[Comrade P.]

- Sorry about that. In my homeland we used to have six.

There aren't really any reservations. First team of five to form gets the first mission, second team gets the second, and so on and so forth.

Wait, does that mean that we only get one mission and need to re-apply to join another?

[USEC_OFFICER]

Sunan smiles and sits down beside Kuzma. "A joke, a joke. Unless one of the beautiful women here would like to donate a g-string...?"

[Patrick Hunt]

(( I'd assume we just form a new team when we get back and go for the next. ))

- This is a fine rifle you possess. Austrian isn't it?

"Yes - my army rifle, in fact. Nicked it when they discharged me. It served me well, so I didn't see why I should leave it in the hands of fools and cowards. You have served yourself, I take it?"

[Comrade P.]

"Yes - my army rifle, in fact. Nicked it when they discharged me. It served me well, so I didn't see why I should leave it in the hands of fools and cowards. You have served yourself, I take it?"

- Twice. Back to Crimea, I fought foreign interventionists on the pacific coast of the Russian Empire, and recently I took part in the local mess called Civil War. Chose the wrong side, unfortunately.

"Sucks for you. The most recent shitstorm I was involved in was the Seven Weeks' War, and we kinda lost, too. Von Benedek lost the Koniggratz, and the Prussians just generally trod over us. Didn't get to participate in the local war, though - just arrived."
((Damn. Otto can't have a Wanzl rifle because it was introduced in 1867, and the Seven Weeks' War ended in 1866. Editing again.))\

[GreatWyrmGold]

((Trying to decide how much crazy to add. Specifically, I'm considering having the South have been going through a Communist/fascist revolution.))

[Wwolin]

"Name's Carl. Carl Anderson. I'm good at making and fixing stuff; this sounds more like a 'breaking stuff' job. Sure you can find a job for me?"

"Oh, don't worry, we're always in need of a fixer. Monsters have a habit of breaking things, you see? Houses, stores, soldiers' legs... You'll be kept pretty busy."

Sunan pulls out his guitar and gives it a gentle strum, "Hello, all. I am Sunan, Star of the East, Student of the Ancient Mysteries, renowned troubadour and singer." Sunan cocks his head, thinking. "And I would like a shot of whisky."

"That's quite the title you have there. Let's hope you manage to become a Star of the West too." The barkeep grabs a bottle of scotch whiskey from the shelf behind him and pours it into two shot glasses, sliding one across the bar to you.

"Nice to meet you, gentlemen. Otto's the name. I'll have what the most esteemed troubadour is having." He smiles politely.

"A Lorenz, eh? Well, I'm gonna assume that since you're alive and well, you've got one of the good ones and not one of the American knock-offs that have been showing up recently." The barkeep slides the other shot of whiskey over to you.

- This is a fine rifle you possess. Austrian isn't it?

"Yes - my army rifle, in fact. Nicked it when they discharged me. It served me well, so I didn't see why I should leave it in the hands of fools and cowards. You have served yourself, I take it?"

The barkeep puts the whiskey back on the shelf, grabs a large bottle of vodka and pours it into a glass before setting both of them in front of you. "I served as a mercenary for France for a year and poked around in Mexico for a bit. Left after we took their capital, and considering the state of things down there with the monsters now, I'm glad I left when I did. By the way, any news on whether or not Alexander's still got that monster-nest of Alaska up for sale? Now that the Civil War's over, I bet that he could probably find a buyer in America for it."

There aren't really any reservations. First team of five to form gets the first mission, second team gets the second, and so on and so forth.

Wait, does that mean that we only get one mission and need to re-apply to join another?

Nope. You just wait until your team's turn rolls around again, and then go on another mission. Once things get rolling, I might start up another thread so that people waiting in the saloon can chat, and maybe even gamble a bit.

[Comrade P.]

- Then let's have a drink for further victories, friendship of nations and music!, - says Kuzma while filling a few glasses with vodka and offering them to Otto and Sunan.

- Things are going to be messed up everywhere now, but I do hope that our beloved Tzar will have enough brains to keep a territory of strategic importance like Alaska. But I have doubts about it.
