As a gentle reminder, Kashyyk, Hastur, Nevyn and Ochita have yet to post their turns.
We're essentially done rolling the rest of ye. Hint hint.

[CyberGenesis]

EDIT:

Was going to say something to someone but it was a little fail on our part for miscommunications.

So yeah, <.< Ignore this post

[Comp112]

Ah, I am very excited for the new turns to be posted. I was playing EG, and was getting ready to steal all the totem pole pieces, when my save corrupted...

Which blows, considering I saved, ate dinner, came back to play, and it was corrupted.

But hey, thats an excuse to start again, and try an even better base layout. Any suggestions?

All of the remaining scientists, try to find the compound for that stuff, I will help them. With a gun if they fail. Guard shall guard, thugs shall extort the liquor store, regulars will set up an ambush for the resource convoy, give them the compound.

You people have no idea how much we're enjoying this. I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH. It's nice to see a system we've put over a year of effort into finally coming together

*has some idea* Seriously...I'm just glad I can FINALLY USE WEEKS! I have just over 100 pages of notes for this...most of which were carried over from the single player version, and I'm adapting to fit this one. Addict?...maybe a little.

Just a warning. If you're not going to be more specific then that, the order will be ignored and your scientist will sit idle.

are you gm'ing too how many gms do we have? I thought you were playing.

[Comp112]

He is playing, but he is trying to be nice. They stated earlier, that just saying 'research' will have the order ignored.

[Hastur]

SO i have to say chemistry defensive? for example

how do i know what i already have researched? Combat sedatives, is that offensive or support?

Day 6 :: Afternoon

"So we now had a Lab and a few heavy handed folk to work with. After a few 'requests' from the scientist I let him train someone to give him a hand in his research into the Defensive side of Chemistry. The Thugs went out to see if they could secure a source of Resources, to see if a Metalwork Factory could be signed on as part of our business, they took the Laser that day to see if it would help influence their point of view.

"Other then that we had little else to do, One of the guards started to do some patrols around the docks while we were there in Europe while the other Guard and the remaining Regular did some plotting. They had been told by the Scientist that the Lab was totally under equipped and he wouldn't mind better equipment from somewhere. And finally in taking nearly all of our remaining Resources the Tech got to work on upgrading our Base with another Giant Laser. He said that it would look nice on a retractable lift on the bow.

"The last thing of note from that week was the first time we got in contact with a rather interesting Gentleman, he went by the name of Mr Ping, humorous none the less but he presented us with an interesting stimulant. Something that I felt would be useful for the boys..."

Spoiler: Actions of the Week (click to show/hide)

1 Guard Patrols the Docks whenever we make port.
Purchase HP(High Powered) Sedative from Mr. Ping. -$300

Labs also knows more of teh background of the game than any of you do. He's been assisting for a long time as well as played the game in a previous form. He's not GM'ing, he's telling people things so we don't have to more than we have already.

Hes also right. As we've said before - you dont really get to pick what you want. You can pick a field and direction, or attempt to modify something you already have. Some things improve as your field levels do, others (Like the shield cannon's stun) can be explicitly asked for. THis game isn't as structured as the real game will be, but thats because this is a forum and a small group. We can BS a lot of the rules to compensate.

If you want something others dont have, you need the field levels to do it. <10-15 probably wont cut it for something unique. The shield cannon was my attempt to justify ANOTHER giant laser research and i based it on previous research gained. The OTHER issue is that to be entirely in-game about it: You mostly don't know what anyone else has. So *shrugs*

Offensive research will lead to weaponized concepts
Defensive and some support will improve survivability of minions
Support is also intended to assist minions in non-combat ways
