Levelup points work differently from character creation points; each subsequent level gained through levelup points costs 5 points more. A +1 from a 0 costs 5 points. A +2 from a +1 costs 10 points on top of that. So if your character had a +1 from character creation, it would cost 10 points (2 missions) to reach +2. If you had a 0 after character creation, a +2 would cost 15 points.

Standard mission completion levelup is 5 stat points and 5 skill points. Rescue teams for this round got less for doing less and being in less danger, but you were on Gyromitra, so you get the full 5/5.

I have no idea how either

A) the new stat system works with regards to bonuses
or
B) How many stat points I get for mission completion

A)There are no bonuses to rolls. Only thing that can give you a bonus to rolls is stims, which give you ±1 dynamic bonus. Stat and skill levels now indicate how good you are at doing what you're doing. So rolling a 4 with a -2 for something means you die, while rolling a 2 with +4 means you succeed (if what you're trying to do is not very hard, because difficulty influences that too). A 1 is always bad news, even for level 4, but at level 4 the consequences won't be very bad and piecewise might not even roll for someone with a good level doing something that should be very easy for them. There's more info in the "A sudden reality shift" thread.
B)5 points for stats, 5 for skills

I wonder if Henk gets stat loss for dying? PW was unclear on that, in his rush to mission briefing.

[Xantalos]

So I guess I'm in the infirmary then.
Well, this'll be fun.

Spite is an ugly thing. leave it be.

No h said I was fine.

Phshaw. Like I thought he'd actually lose stats. I mean, I didn't get to scramble his brains, so no harm, no foul.

I'll give you  all a sneak peak here

Nik's mission is heading to a rather odd place. Remember the Samsonite Abyss? We may have found something similar.

The Main Mission is checking out an ally of ours that has gone silent, and gone silent in a very disconcerting way.

And the Joker team mission is a possibly long term mission involving organ theft.

Second mission involving the team bugging out because giant sand worm thingies?

[Parisbre56]

Could you say that it has even gone... quiet?

I'll probably go with mission 2 if there are spots. Be it an accident, hostile action or something else, it piques my interest. Sounds big, dangerous and strange.

[Twinwolf]

I don't particularly care which I go on.

[Yoink]

I'll probably try to go on the second or third. Fuck giant sand worms, man. Total hax.

[Nikitian]

That's why we're packing a nuke this time, after all.

You gonna go independence day on them?

[Caellath]

Long-term? I think I'm staying out of Joker's too this time. Time to begin planning my abductions of Joker inductees-to-be.

Edit: I just noticed something. Did the X3 rifle from Michael Bayson get sold in the player market and the tokens headed over to the "general" team fund instead of the Joker team fund?
