(( Hey could I do mini turns separate from the othersa? I need to speak to each of the prison gangs and doing 1 per day would take a while.

{{Just talk to them all at once in a update. You'll go gangleader to gangleader in one update no?}}

[Patrick Hunt]

Having conversations with 4+ people will take a week probably or more RL. I don't really wanna make you all wait a week for me to have some chats.

Since the turns are done once everyone posts and I won't be able to do a turn until I finish all the talking.

[Deny]

Sure, you can have separate conversations, just don't expect much detail in any of them, really it'll just be you say something to one of them, I roll, then I post the response

[Patrick Hunt]

That's fine. I just wanna learn a little about the gangs to help me decide who I recruit and who I crush.

[Funk]

Look for an empty warehouse.

[PewdsRocks]

How long will we wait for people to post?

[Deny]

Since I pretty much already know what Sheb's action will be, I'll give him till this afternoon to post

[Sheb]

Sorry for being late. I send you the details about my friends by PM.

Form a cell of those friends. Plays on each of them's weakness (Hunger for power, hunger for adventure, resentment againt the Viceroys). Try to get an idea of the troopers' support for the Viceroy. Once this is done, send them out to recruit cells of their own, insisting on the strict secrecy rules of the Stevitore. In addition, each of them will be given the position of a dead drop that can be used by their men to communicate with me should one of them be arrested.

This being done, try to identify a few commanders whose demissions or disappearance would improve my friends' career prospects.

Guys, I suggest we have weekly meeting after each turn. Ok with you all?

[PewdsRocks]

That'd make it daily not weekly. But if it's done that way I won't be at most of them. All of us in the same place every single day? That's begging for trouble.

[Sheb]

Well, you're right. But let's make them bi-weekly then. (Every 3 turns?) Things are moving fast, we need cooperation.

[PewdsRocks]

More then once a week isn't really necessary this early.

[Sheb]

As you wish.

Also, here's the list of my officer friends, validated by the GM

Spoiler: List (click to show/hide)

• Claude Marstein, Esq.: Old friend of John, they knew each others since childhood. The son of a slightly eccentric family, his father was the largest art collector in Vastein until the Viceroy decided to open a "Viceroyal Museum", effectively confiscating them for his private gallery. Not the brightest of the bunch, but widely enthusiastic and loved by his men, he is the junior major of an VIC battalion stationed some way outside the city.
• James Carsinook, 2nd Earl of Bronston: President of the student society, organizer of the best parties in the college and seeming to know everyone, the man is a social beast. While his grade weren't the best, the many connections he made (both himself and through his family, who also are social animals) allowed him to find a cushy job as aide-de-camp to a rising general on the general staff. While outwardly pro-Viceroy, he dislike both the man (a tasteless ruffian according to him) and the fact that his family was punished by loosing land after refusing to invite him to some of their more select parties.
• Günter Carstberg: The son of an upstart factory owner who lost his business because of the Viceroy, his commoner status and the origin of his fortune in trade rather than land make some (including Carsinook) look down on him. However, his pride and above all powerful intellect and tireless hard work opened doors normally closed to people of his class.
  He was remarked in school after publishing an easier method to compute gun bearing and range and joined the VAC after a bidding war between the VAC and the Navy. Nominally in charge of the naval guns defending Larton harbor, he actually spend most of his time at the VAC's headquarter, refining range and bearing tables.
• Vincent van Krijk, Baron of Moelbroek: A playboy, he and John met when courting the same fashionable lady in college. Vincent won that one, but John had his revenge later on. A long and friendly rivalry for the ladies' hearts lasted during all those college years. After graduating he joined the VCC, for their gorgeous uniforms, and now is a Captain. While his regiment is stationed in the interior, far from Larton, he is currently in town for R&R. He started opposing the Viceroy to give himself a fashionable rebel look, but his resolve hardened after his uncle was thrown in jail.
• Tart Munkein, 1st Vicount of Plembeek: Hungry for power, young Tart was born in an impoverished noble family and wants to give the Plembeek line the honour they deserve. A former fencing partner of John, he vowed to destroy the Viceroy when what was left of the family lands were confiscated. Ferocious and ambitious, he is the junior major of a VIC battalion, striking fear in the heart of his men and admiration in the eyes of his superiors.

Their ALL going to be part of your cell?

Nice one Sheb!

[Sheb]

Well, it helps to go through military college. Hopefully they'll all accept, haven't rolled that one yet.

What's your charisma? I think theirs one that we shouldn't get because i think his long term loyalty would be questionable {maybe ask him some other time when we need him?} but it's all good.

BTW we should find a place that's not the bar to meet up. Can we get a private room at some club where all 3 classes can come together? Not a abandoned warehouse {suspicious if a upperclass showed up their}or a mansion {why would the lower class be there if their not servants? Maybe i can set up a business and invite you all as "guests"?
