I changed my sheet. Yes, I know that I don't have any food or bargaining tools, they're too heavy, and I'll mooch food off of someone else. Is relieving stress via psychiatry under Diplomacy?

Seriously, ATHATH, we need to have an intervention about your death mug problem.

*slow clap* Well ATHATH congratulations. You managed to give the MC a mental breakdown before we even finished the first arc.

No.  The middle of a mission is not the time nor place for effective psychological care, and between missions people recover their morale and hopefully mental stress.  The "giving people drugs" part of psychiatry is possible but not always a good idea, and you can RP an amateur psychologist if you want, but it won't really do much in-game.

I'll edit in my character sheet.
Great.  You're actually the sixth out of a party of five to announce interest, but the two of the others haven't posted characters - if they don't soon and when I remind them, you'll be in.  Otherwise it's the waitlist until someone dies.

By the way, there'll be NPC mooks filling out the squad - mostly Riflemen, but other important niches that are missing as well.  So you all don't have to make a totally balanced lineup.

So wait, what does the telescopic sight do? Is it just a binoculars?

And, uh...I can't tell, do we have to buy a weapon with our starting XP in order to have a rifle?

Nope, everyone gets an Assault Rifle.  Technically you don't get it until you arrive in Vietnam, i.e. not during character creation, but I guess it'd be good to note that.

The Telescopic sight... is in an items category I missed.  Will add it when I get the chance, but basically it makes you able to select an individual from an enemy unit to shoot, instead of targeting the whole unit.

Looks good; I'd carry at least a little food, though.
Fixed.

I gave myself a gun and some supplies. How much does Assault Rifle ammo weigh?

PTW. I may make a sheet for the waitlist if I have some time later.

I would ask why fire can burn two men to death without getting hot enough to burn a book, but then I read "INEXTINGUISHABLE RUNNING KAMIKAZE RADIOACTIVE FLAMING ZOMBIE" and realized that logic, reason, and physics are all occupied with crying in the corner right now.

I'd probably grab some explosives or traps but I don't know where they are, I'm afraid. Probably have to get them later or something, maybe.

You're assumed to carry a limited amount of ammunition for whatever weapon throughout your gear, for free - enough for 4 Precision Fire actions, or 1-4 Suppressive Fire actions depending on your rolls; the Spare Ammo item also lets you recover 1/4 of it.

They'll go up in a few hours, when I get home and can get them from the rulebook.

Every item is now up; added traps, grenades, and weapon modifiers (like the Telescopic Sight and Bipod you can start with.)  There's one player in the party right now with no character; I'm following up with them, and if they've lost interest it'll go to DigitalDemon.

Again, sorry for stringing things out - I'm getting things from an incomplete, 120-page document and don't have as much time as I'd like to.

Do Flashbangs have stats?

I ask mainly because the Grenadier gets some.

I'd get some traps and demolition charges, but they're pretty heavy and I'd have to drop some food/chlorine/carrier can/tobacco.

Not sure I want to do that...anyone else have room to carry shit for me? :P

They do; I guess that's just inconsistent naming, since they're the same as stun grenades IRL.

Stun Grenade - WT 1, XP 0.  Grenade available in all varieties.  Deafens and blinds struck targets for 1 Turn/Step.

Not sure if what your carrying weighs that much... can you recount it? I think you have plenty of space.
He's got a lot, 45/48.

werty has dropped, so DigitalDemon's now in.  I'll do a final character check this afternoon, and hopefully get started with the first mission tonight.

It's mostly the jerry can and food and the like. 6 WT for the carrier can, 2 for Chlorine, 4 for rations, 2 for tobacco...

On the other hand, we're probably well set for water. Oh, how heavy are Claymores?

I might change Explosives to Trapper or something if I don't end up having any. I might drop half my consumables for a pair of demo charges or something.

Oh, and do Punji sticks need to be carried to be used, or can they be created in the field like it sorta seems?
