On one hand, having a commander attached to each faction could be beneficial to us. The factions would feel they have a representative (or puppet) and might be less hostile to us in the future if we do something they don't agree with. So long as one of us isn't attached and they are the one that addresses the factions in representation of the commanders as a whole, we should be golden.


On the other hand, someone being forced into a faction is seriously damaging to the morale of the group. We also won't likely even have each faction represented either, making one likely to feel left out and be more likely to be hostile in the future. So the less people associated with a faction the better.


In other words, faction association will probably need to be an all or nothing affair. We'll want either everyone represented or no one at all. The Commanders need to look both unbiased and fair. Even if, internally, we actually aren't. The better call here might be that, while we may agree with the ideals of one faction over the other, we shouldn't be a member of any. In a sense, we're our own faction now.

Oh right here's Gents's sheet: http://kraftwagen.wikidot.com/valgard

Oh I was just about to come and post that, go figure you beat me to the punch.

[SerenityFrost]

So while I was leveling Pepper from a Beldum to a Metang I noticed that I had an extra edge I hadn't chosen. I stuck it in medic training so Bails can heal folks in battle now without them having to hold a turn after. d:


Oh, it also turns out that I accidentally designed him to qualify for Mastermind. This actually lines up pretty well with his back story (I can see him being groomed for something like mastermind before deciding to become a chef instead), so it's possible he could end up going mastermind and medic in the future. Just not sure which one he'll do first. I guess how we decide to handle his, ah, mental hiccups will determine that.




EDIT: Hey, how much experience did we get from the last battle?

[KujiUn]

46 EXP.

[Taricus]

So, any chance the server coming up for an RP session today?

[Weirdsound]

Not today. If I can do it this week, it will be tomorrow or Tuesday.

[EdroGrimshell]

I'll probably join for that RP session, just to see if I can't take Velik off the bridge.

[SerenityFrost]

Oh good. I wouldn't have been able to make it today. Tomorrow isn't great for me, but would be possible. Tuesday would be best.

[Weirdsound]

Alright. It looks like the RP session, if we are having it, will be tonight. The new players, if they have their sheets ready, are welcome to attend. Now that we have two vacancies, I'd say both Gents and Anise are in.

Mission List Update:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Orange Alert: The 8 Heavy Cruisers have managed to blast a large chunk off the Giant Space Ditto. The tide of battle is likely turning in favor of the locals.
Orange Alert: The BUP are repairing their teleporter. It will be ready in 3-4 Clicks.
Orange Alert: Locals, likely the same ones that have messed with the ship in the past, have besieged an Academy Research Site. They are requesting help.

Green Alert: It is possible to conduct salvage operations on the cruisers destroyed by the Space Ditto. The Military Supplies on-board will be quite valuable, but the proximity to the battle would make this task as risky as it is rewarding.
Green Alert: Mr. Walton Burke, a local landowner, has extended an invitation for the commanders to stay at his plantation and join him on a hunting trip. At least one click.

Blue Alert: It has come to our attention that a Taco Restaurant aboard the ship is in violation of health code. Perhaps the commanders would like to shut it down? 1 Tick.
Blue Alert: 1st Officer Quillson requests the commanders' presence at the holo-arena so that he may test their strength in a simulated training battle. 1 Tick
Blue Alert: 1st Officer Quillsion is attempting to increase the power of the bridge by setting up a new team of combat officers and guards. If you are willing to part with one of your Pokemon, and Quillsion feels it is strong enough to make the cut, he will give you a piece of the old Captain's equipment or 5000 PC in exchange for the transfer of service. Tell Quillsion that one of your Pokemon would like to try out, and he will watch it on your next mission.

Faction Mood:

The Academy of Hector: -1 (The Pilgrims and Malones are both pinning all sorts of bad publicity about the recent incident involving Jossie on the academy. This is not sitting well with some of the professors)

[SerenityFrost]

I'm kind of busy at this exact moment. I probably won't be free for at the very least two hours. You don't have to hold the game for me if I'm late.

[Taricus]

The server itself isn't up right now, so you're good Sen.

[KujiUn]

If this happens, I'll be double-gaming again, but that shouldn't be too much of a problem.

[Weirdsound]

Server is up. I may have to take some longish AFK time over the next few hours though...

[Taricus]

Huh. Is the server down for anyone else at the moment?

[KujiUn]

Yep.
