Ah. So she will have to secure a rifle on her own, then.

[Dampe]

Wait. Oh my god.
Caellath, your only combat skill is Machine Pistols/Submachine Guns?!

Rest in peace, dude.
We'll bury what's left of you inside a Star Wars lunchbox after we get back from Tropicana.

**Press F to pay respects**

[Twinwolf]

Well, apart from sniper rifles- which Adriana does not have one, apparently- Adriana's only combat skills are explosives and handguns. Until she gets a sniper rifle, she'll be keeping her head down, occasionally tossing a grenade or popping out and taking a few potshots.

But you have a handgun, so you're probably safe.

It was originally handguns/revolvers but since those aren't exactly a good choice for firing from a vehicle in movement I wound up picking M.pistols and SMGs. Hey, I could have been given a machine pistol; there's a lot of cheap Chinese ones flying around.

[Dampe]

Damn it, how did we get shot down?! The pilot's skill was 95!

[Caellath]

So would the pilot fail if he rolled 5 or below? And there's a mechanics question that was necessary for a passive skill I had in mind and I forgot to ask after it slipped from my mind - how are opposed rolls dealt with? Like, what if both shooter and pilot succeed, what breaks the tie?

Well, the pilot was rolling to evade the missile.
Since he failed, the missile rolled to find out where on the plane it would hit.

[Playergamer]

Just realized I put far too few points into pistols. Oh well, it'll be fine.

[Dampe]

Caellath, a note on your SMG: the ML63 has two triggers, one for single shot and one for full automatic.

[Caellath]

Yes, I googled the name when I saw it and I plan on having Fakhr react accordingly.

[SaberToothTiger]

Can I get waitlisted? If so,

Spoiler: Character Sheet (click to show/hide)

Name: Curt Kraas.
Gender: Male.
Nationality: (East) German.
Age: 48.
Height: 1.75m.
Weight: 87kg.
Blood Type: AB-
Hair Color: Blonde, Graying.

Bio: Kraas was born in eastern part of Berlin in 1968. His father was a historian working in a local high school, and his mother was a nurse, working in a hospital. While his close relatives didn't have any military history, young Curt was a fan of the II world war movie films, and always wanted to be a soldier. His parent discouraged him from doing that, and instead pointed him towards higher learning. Curt went to a university and specialised in elecronics as well as physics. He finished his school, but wasn't able to find a good job, and the work of a factory worker wasn't all that apalling either. He avoided the draft because of his higher education, but he volunteered for engineering corps when he left the university.

He didn't immedieately become an ace, though. He served 12 years as an Army engineer, and got promoted to Sergeant First Class at 36 years of age. He then volunteered to become a member of the KSK. The first time he applied, he failed the physical tests, but he succeeded on the second try. He served in the KSK for 6 years, before retiring at 46. During his service in the KSK he took training to get some artillery skills, resulting in his skills with mortars. While he had a higher education and could approach a career in engineering, he instead opted for security work. He was approached by the SOF just a year ago.

[Dampe]

Sure. If someone dies, I probably should offer their slot to Gunin first, since I did turn him down after applications, but other than him, you're next in line.

[Caellath]

What happened there? I had Fakhr prepare to fire but Adriana rolled twice instead? Did you miss my post?

And how about Boyd's action?

[SaberToothTiger]

Hey, if and when I go in, could I bring in a mortar? I'm a fan of those, I say.
