| − | --[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 11:08, 9 June 2009 (MST) Can we just delete members who aren't us and then close registration?
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | JASON: Closing registration doesnt make sense, what about when new people come around in our groups? I will probably be instituting a policy that requires filling in one of those silly 'what is this text' boxes, that will stop them.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 13:36, 9 June 2009 (MST) Could we register everyone who might join up now, and then make a couple spare ones? Or is the text box really easy and effective?

| − | --[[User:Matts|Matts]] 09:19, 9 June 2009 (MST)Hey, can we throw out the end-of-game twist in terms of where the mass effect relays and the citadel come from? It'd be nice to have them be all mysterious.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 09:34, 9 June 2009 (MST) I have yet to beat the game, but sure. I'm guessing the citadel is actually a Reaper? I should be beating the game this weekend since my dudes are so powerful I just chew up everyone anyway.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 11:14, 9 June 2009 (MST) You're close, Gabe. The Citadel is indeed more than meets they [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AIFoBRIny0 eye!!!] And I'm totally down with it all being much more mysterious. Actually, it just hit me that I would be hugely excited about this if the we were all Artifact Traders/Hunters doing something similar to the game. We come across some pimp artifact and are suddenly tracking a millennia old trail across the galaxy. Exploring strange new worlds, killing new and exotic lifeforms, and uncovering terrible secrets best left undisturbed. That would be awesome.<br>
| + | |
| − | '''Oh''', does anyone have a spare copy of WH40k RP book for us to look at? If we do play on Friday, could you bring it, Gabe? I'd like to show up before my movie and look it over to get an idea about characters.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | JASON: If you guys are gonna play on a ship, I have an extra map of a ship that is RAD. Its like 24x30 and fully outfitted with hexes. Ben has seen it, I think you guys would get good use out of it.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 11:56, 9 June 2009 (MST) Sounds like a pretty pimp'in map. And I'm not watching that video until I beat the game! Well it seems people what a kinda... Tomb Raider in space or whatever, so yay! Gives me much more to work with.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | I DO have a spare book, but it is with Lew who I will be seeing this Sunday. I shall ask him to bring it back.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 12:59, 9 June 2009 (MST) Alright, we will do artifact hunters. Seems most people are down with this one. Some coniderations... how legal are all of you? There are a number of planets that have a no landing rule but are ripe with ancient ruins. I'm assuming the characters run their own biz as well and don't work for one of the corps.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | PLAYERS! Start thinking up a name for your "practice".
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 14:03, 9 June 2009 (MST) The video is actually a rickroll to the Transformers cartoon theme song. You know? 'More than meets the eye'? Yeah, I went there. I figure we'll go with our usual lax opinion of legal rules: Follow them when forced to, violate them with varying degrees of sensitivity when not. I'd prefer to run our own business, and I'm betting backgrounds will run from semi-sketchy to sorta-legit. I'd like to steal from Bablyon 5 and go with "IPX", "Interplanetary Expeditions". 'Digging up the past for a better future.'
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 14:26, 9 June 2009 (MST) Thinking about it now... yeah, you guys will have to do fairly illegal things. RPin out getting dig permits would be pretty bland.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] if we do artifact hunters, i have a character named Aedil who wants to make a re-emergence. just kidding. i think. also could borrow a rules book.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | BEN: I don't want to be on the same team as a guy who signed his people up to fight alongside the space-nazis and singlehandedly allowed them to take over half of the Gemini. Just saying. is there a point to coming up with a character concept? with classes I imagine things are kind of restrictive in terms of what sort of "role" a character can have.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]]-- Classes in 40k are actually fairly customizable. Almost all have two, and up to three, different paths they can follow. Plus with the other book I have it has these kinda classes you can take that basically replace a whole section of your level up tree. On top of this you can basically RP it out and ask the GM for a chance to buy a skill you normally wouldn't be able to. It should be noted that while skills and talents are priced anywhere from 100-300, it is stats that end up costing a lot. Like from 250 up to 1750. Players will most likely start with 1000-1200 exp, to get things started. I'd like it if there was at least one human.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] a one sentence description of what a Krogan is would be good...and the other races
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]]-- Go to the wiki. There is your one sentence. But really I'd read up on all the races on the wiki. Krogan are kinda like killer turtles.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] dibs on being Krogan. my character will be named Raphael. wait...didn't i already have a Raphael in space? shit!
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 16:54, 9 June 2009 (MST) Crap, was getting two races mixed up. Never mind.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Matts|Matts]] - I'll probably play a human assassin or scum, depending on my characteristic rolls.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] - You can assign whatever stats to wherever, assuming they are equal roles.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 12:03, 10 June 2009 (MST) Just want to point this out, what Dieter said above will most likely be the feel of the game, ''"We come across some pimp artifact and are suddenly tracking a millennia old trail across the galaxy. Exploring strange new worlds, killing new and exotic lifeforms, and uncovering terrible secrets best left undisturbed. That would be awesome."''

| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 12:26, 10 June 2009 (MST) Also after playing a bit more, I think I will keep that general knowledge about the relays in-tact... it does not mean it is true. And there are certainly people who don't believe it.

| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 15:33, 10 June 2009 (MST) Houzaboot we steal a page from Ben's Cyberpunk campaign? We were all crewing a ship for some corporation when [THE EVENT] happened. We suddenly find ourselves with the ship but on our own. This could be because the corporation suddenly ceased to exist (went out of business, hostile action, bought out, etc.), or because we made a big find that we didn't want to share (and either just gave 'em all the finger, or faked our deaths, or made our first illegal sale of what we found and used the proceeds to buy ourselves out along with our ship). This gives us background together for the last X years, gives us pre-established roles we're all comfortable with. And, we have the same enemies (barring personal touches during character creation). I also promise that I won't simply run off and die (like in Ben's Cyberpunk). '''Thoughts?'''<br>
| + | |
| − | Oh, I'm thinking of playing a Jack-of-All-Trades grease-monkey character. Nothing high-level, but can pretty much fix anything and do the nasty jobs that others wouldn't like.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]]-- Would you alll be opposed to a name like Attic (or Basement) Finds? Or something like that because you always use the excuse "We found it in our basement!" I actually don't care, just thought that would be neat and kinda in a ways shows just what kinda business you run. Sounds find Dieter,t hat you work well, but I'd like it if the company just went out of business. Even better yet, how about if it was a university?

| − | --[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 15:53, 10 June 2009 (MST) Check out the upcoming [http://www.wizards.com/magic/magazine/article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/feature/42a rules changes] that are coming out with the release of the next basic set. Most of them are perfectly innocuous. For example, the "in-play zone" is now called "the battlefield." Whatever. But some things are substantial, ranging from getting rid of mana burn to the fact that combat damage no longer uses the stack. I quote Ben in saying "super lame".
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | '''GABE:''' Uh... Hmm. Makes combat a lot faster, but also seems a bit boring to me.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] I hated hated hated that combad damage used the stack. it made no sense that you could assign damage, then unsummon a creature, whose now invisible fist smacks you in the face. creatures must finish combat to do damage, this is a good thing, more like it used to be and makes more sense. also like the lifelink modification. not sure exactly what the ordering of the blockers for damage is all about, but it seems ok. mana burn was a stupid rule anyway, just cus it was there from the beginning doesn't make it a good rule, and it impacted the game almost never, like they say.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 16:59, 10 June 2009 (MST) I agree with you about the counterintuitiveness of the unsummon scenario, but I think that combat damage using the stack opened up a lot of strategic space that was interesting and fun, so overall I thought it was advantageous. I totally agree with you about lifelink (I thought the stacking was always dumb), and am pretty ambivalent about mana burn. I would lean slightly the other way on it, because even though it almost never impacted the game, sometimes it did in interesting ways, which I saw as a plus. The ordering of blockers stuff, though, which is a result of removing the damage from the stack rule, has some negative consequences. Check out [http://www.top8magic.com/2009/06/ruined-forever-the-magic-2010-rules-changes-by-zvi-mowshowitz/ this article] by Zvi Mowshowitz (a pro player) for a good run down of the implications.
