Think this'll be fun. Grabbing the last spot while I make a sheet.

It's not 'last spot', but 'I need at least this many'.  More can join after I have 5.

Also, I am probably going to try ditching the plasma rifle for something kinetic simply on principle, are we going to be able to switch weaponry at any time?

Vehicles can only upgrade their weapons between missions, but Cyborgs can scavenge off the battlefield as well as purchase in the shops.  Flip side is that Cyborgs have a limited amount of munitions, while Vehicles have unlimited ammo.  Going to post the basic shop in the OP, but I'll need some input for more advanced weaponry that is something besides adding Mk. II, Mk. III, or something similar to the end.

Weaposn that do area of effect, attack multiple times (if weakly) or reduce enemy armour are potientially alternate weapons. If there are critical hits, weaker weapons that crit more often are also possible.

Guns/gadgets that do crew damage would be cool!

Weapons that hack enemies would also be good.

Probably should have been a bit more specific.  It's more along the lines of names I need help with.

Anyway, there are the minimum amount required to join, so I'll get to work on the initial mission.

Two changes made (Sheets in IC turn and OP have been updated):
Defense changed from +2,+1,-1,-2 to +3,+1,-1,-3
Changed Aircraft effect from 'can traverse terrain others cannot' to 'ignores terrain effects'

Posting in IC:
Use north, northeast, southeast, south, southwest, and northwest to specify movement.
Characters are able to speak with each other via a short range radio.

Note for joining:
New characters will mostly join in-between missions.  There may be rare occurrences of players being able to join mid-mission, however, so keep your eyes open.

Note for Vader Tiron and Zakken's players
Please post a backstory for your characters in this thread.  I'll edit it into the IC.

Finally:
IC Thread is open

((One movement, Eh? Guess I am dying last.))

The stats in your sheet do not include terrain modifiers.

((We have communications right? I just assumed we have at least what modern equipment does.))

I stated the answer to this where I posted the link here.

I'll drop this here so I can join after this mission, then. This sounds interesting.

Well, it looks as if no one is wanting to use the other races.  There's only 1 app that has a race other than human out of the 7 sheets.

I'm being honest, Stirk, I didn't see your charsheet. Sorry 'bout that.
