If it's just for comedy but doesn't mean bad things mechanically that's ok. I'd just not want things made even worse.

"Hey steve." You speak into the air.
>Yes?
"Could you guys also make a hamburger out of this arm when they cut it off? I wanted to eat it just for the sake of tasting it."
>That is horrible and disgusting. It will no doubt set you apart and create fear in your team mates. So of course.

Easy enough to represent mechanically (Ogryn from Only War with low int but high skill), but unless someone is making an Acquisition test NPCs of any stripe are going to be less competent then PCs for obvious reasons.

Also the Owlcat game released. Rejoice.

That's fair. IIRC, you just use the Crew Rating by default for crew tests, since any random crewman is as perfectly capable at anything as every other one. Somehow.

I'm gonna wait and see since there's always bugs and I've already seen some people say the game was released undercooked.

Most NPCs will be around that level, but the ship feels dead if everyone but the protagonist are faceless nobodies.

Egan wants to get a mission going. Why don't we go ahead and land on this hell planet and somehow have to deal with the fact that our only clue for moving forward got smoked because of an OOC argument?

It could be funny, at least by my personal standards, if you set us up with some kind of family or friends of the cat as guides and force our characters to deal with the awkwardness.

I kinda thought the LC was gonna post something but if 2/3 of the remaining players want me to hit it I'll get a post up soon

I forgot to ask but anything specific I should set up for us to move on?

Post what exactly? Work has been a rush to complete some last minutes performance quotas and I wasn't aware I had anything specific to post and get us going. I thought we were waiting on you honestly.

Oh, I was assuming we'd be basing the plague stuff off Medicae and wait for the trip to resume.

So, do we have any idea of how we're gonna find that ship? I'm not really sure. I guess we could ask the humans if they know anything?
