A "Token" is a physical form of currency which can be lent, stolen, or traded.
Upon any given tokens accidental destruction its last owner, rightful or otherwise, is credited 1 electronic token which may be redeemed for a physical version at the current owners earliest convenience.

Personally im against outlawing inheritence outright, im all for players bequething their possessions to specific surviving squadmates, i just dont like the idea of handing your gear down to yourself and starting with an unfair advantage compared to the other fresh spawns.

Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

As soon as someone tries to sibling farm, PW and/or Nyars will start kneecapping fools so hard that you'd hear a sonic boom.

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.
God help us if we have to agree on pizza toppings at some point. There will be no survivors.

I agree with the general anti-inheritance stance. As with many things, I only mention it because it's something PW has mentioned in passing as a 'feature' of the new private rooms, and then never clarified for us.

Ok, no inheritance unless it's from debt to another player. Noted.

I'm fine with wills as long as they aren't willed to your own future character.

This is my opinion as well. However in case of gestalt entity the one who remains should have all i nventory it's original parts had. Because to outsiders there's no way to know if any of original parts still exists or even really existed in first place. So Team Fund claiming Thad's non-existant tokens is meta as fuck.

The team fund isn't claiming his stuff, was talking about the general ('normal') case. Even then, Steve saw the whole thing, so there's good chance he could figure out what happened, and tell Miya. Even so, I'm not gonna interfere here except for having confiscated those pills.

Talking about Steve, what happened to their shock implants? As far as we know the gestalt thing only took fleshy bits and left mechanical ones. Does it/they have any shock implants? Steve isn't making any fuss about it so they probably have at least one. Whose? Henk's?

They have what, four -no, six of them now? A big pulse electric pulse to a suitably big brain, I say! :P

Also, yep, I think the inheritance has been settled a while ago. Anyway, I am still eager to wait for players to form Magister-like two- or three-family unions, where living friends inherit the stuff and then pass on to the new characters. Still very meta unless done very right, but hey, I derive aesthetic and intellectual pleasure from figuring out clever solutions to loopholes like these.
(Disclaimer: I haven't done it myself, I don't intend to, and I don't encourage doing it. If by doing so you cause all standing inheritance rules to be retracted, including written will, I will be very sad, and my character might have IC justification to shank you visit fair judgement upon you, because he cares about his friends and is among the few to make actual last will. Smoking isn't cool kids, don't do it!)

Umm.. shouldn't it be an intuition roll to try and anticipate your enemies movements, Lenglon?  That seems like trying to move both before and after the AoP.

I have different actions for before and after it moves.

Better hope you aren't penalized for that, then.
