[[WHFRP Reboot Recap]]
+
 
+
'''GABE:'''  Everyone okay with installing the fire mage as the new Emperor?
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 09:33, 28 April 2008 (MST) Oh yeah, baby.  let's kill the emperor.  that would be so sweet.  wait, you're joking, aren't you.  don't tease.
+
 
+
'''GABE:''' No really, it'd be cool and give us lots of power.
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 10:53, 28 April 2008 (MST) wait, you're serious?  got any plans?  Jacob is so down for emperoricide.  in fact, he has wet dreams about it every night.
+
 
+
 
+
'''GABE:''' Totally.  We can use any of Fryfocker's men, Shane has a decent size force to add.  Lets see, who else could we call on?  I was thinking either an alliance with ol'Sal and his berserkers... but I doubt this.  Finding and recruiting your old ranger general may be a good idea too but we are short on time.
+
 
+
Ralling people to our side would be really important.  For example sending people like me ahead would be good to foster good will (public speaking, Fel 65%, music & signing ability).  We have to watch the Baroness but I figure we could have her marry the fire wizard.  We'd have to watch out for anyone who might try and turn on us in battle though so having people next to leaders to wipe them out should they via for the throne themselves would also be important.
+
 
+
--[[User:Matts|Matts]] 12:12, 28 April 2008 (MST)You guys are so on point this time it's not even funny!
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 12:35, 28 April 2008 (MST)you've got to be kidding me.  a band of ragammufs can kill the emperor?
+
 
+
'''GABE:''' Even an emperor must bow before a gun, and I've got two of 'em!  Whats wrong with trying crazy stuff out?  I mean why not?  The Empire is ripe for a new leader.  I'd like to have some say in who that is.  Plus it'd be really fun to try and do.  Least gives our characters something to do eh?
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 13:27, 28 April 2008 (MST) OK, Jacob is in.  it's his fondest desire, doubly unfortunate that i will be absent next session.  I suggest we make iggy emperor.  Gabe, go read [[Secret GM Info for Jacob]] and see if there are any ideas there that you can use to the new plot.
+
 
+
'''GABE:'''The rumors are all good, man I should have taken Spy, it would work well for this.
+
Anyway, I don't think we need to be sliting throats to cause panic, the amount of risk it involves compared to payouts is slim.  I like the stories about the general, all good stuff.  I'm fairly sure there is something really wrong with Fryfocker's son, we need to keep an eye on him in battle to make sure he doesnt' attack our soon-to-be Emperor.
+
 
+
As for making Iggy Emperor he doesn't really fit the Emperor roll.  Nobody knows who he is and his personality is fairly dark and manipulative.  Dementis trusts him enough but he also has kept many secrets, clearly, from the group so in that regard he only gains so much trust.  The fire general is really charasmatic and well known.  He will be much easier to marry out to a noble household.  Also since Dementis has slept with him and will ride into battle with him I imagen I'll at least hold a little sway.  I'm looking to have us all appointed as dukes or whatever.  So yeah, lets make a flame Emperor.
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 13:56, 28 April 2008 (MST)those are all good traits for an emperor in wfrp.  dark secretive devious and evil.  but wait!  we want to bring about some change in the world, not keep it how it is.  so ya, flame emperor.  but he's kind of evil too.  so let's make Elrin emperor.
+
 
+
--[[User:Matts|Matts]] 13:59, 28 April 2008 (MST)I'm just happy to see the group taking the bull by the horns here, that's all...
+
 
+
'''GABE:''' Personally none of the characters would make a good Emperor.  I mean Bro?  All his rulings would have to be shot into the throne room on a crossbow bolt.  Best to make dynamic boy the Emperor.  Elrin would make a great assassin for the empire.  Kill that guy.  Okay!
+
 
+
Yeah, should be cool, we need to send out some scouts to find out what Salami is up to.  Also, what is the possiblity of Bro making a toxin that can stop them from berserking?  If it is possible we need to find some other people who can make it and hire out peseants to find the materials to make them.  Not enough to take out armies but enough to take out key berserkers.  Like "Wolf Eatter Slayer of Your Entire Army".
+
 
+
Dementis is direct, so my plans will be fairly stright forward.  So far it has worked for her, surprisingly.
+
 
+
Also I think we should appoint Bro to be the Emperor's personal doc once we crown him.
+
 
+
It might be nice to have Lee's dude spread word of how Sigmar favors a new sun.  One who will burn away the old corruption and renew the land in the flame of strength and retrobution.
+
 
+
Taking it by the horns?  Of course I ''never'' planned on trying to install someone as emperor...  Kekekeke.
+
 
+
'''GABE:''' I had this neat idea, say if we need to take out Nuln, use Iggy's contacts to basically ship soilders in... in crates, then they are opened by our loyal staff and storm the city, mwuhahaha!
+
 
+
BEN: as for good emperor candidates, I (Ben) can think of two truly moral characters that were in the game to date: Ambrose and Anjou.  Ignotus will lend whatever aid he can to your plans.
+
 
+
Ed: honestly, Jacob would make a great emperor.  viva la revolution!
+
 
+
'''GABE:''' I don't think we'd want a Britonian.  Jacob would sell the palace for booze money...  Again, fire dude.  We can advise him and all that.  No... lets make ROBERT EMPEROR!  MWUHAHAHA A DARK AGE OF UTTER BRUTALITY!
+
 
+
'''Justin:'''  Come on guys.  You ALL know that Ambros would be a perfect fit for Emperor. He wants to change the empire and make it better but doesn't want to be in the limelight.  he'd be perfect!
+
 
+
'''Justin:'''  Emperor Ambrosius von Richter!  It rolls off the tongue nicely, I think...
+
 
+
== The Next Step in [[Werewolf]]==
+
 
+
 
+
[[Werewolf Recap]]
+
 
+
PLANS:  So just what are some steps people are thinking of taking?  If you could give me a rough idea it'd be most helpful.
+
 
+
'''The gayass story-teller''':  What a gay name.  Anyway, all looks good, I'm gonna guess that we won't make it to the big show down with the fort this week, but I could be wrong... or the character could just rush it head on.  Anyway all interesting ideas, it really helps me to see what plans people are going to take.  Also there are a few things the characters will learn on Friday.  Some hints.
+
 
+
Ed: I see we have two options if we choose to attack.  hit the corporate office or hit the hellbeast guarded factory.  When we parted, Wakhan was favoring russling up the troops, feinting attack on corporate and then making a real attack on the factory.  First, attacking the factory in the real world with a truck borne fertilizer bomb, this to draw the baddies into the real world.  then once they shift, hit the factory in the netherworld with the main force. thoughts?
+
 
+
 
+
--[[User:Matts|Matts]] 22:30, 22 April 2008 (MST)I wanted to get a good idea of what the sewer system around there looked like.  I want to use my contacts in the bum community to find someone who knows the area and might have any tips in exchange for whatever, ie roughing up people who are giving him a hard time, cooking him an honest meal, etc.
+
 
+
As far as overall strategy, I think that the truck-bomb is a good idea, but especially that the two-pronged umbral assault is a good idea.  I'm gonna ask any bums in the area about what sorts of trucks go through there, what their general look is, and where they're coming from.  The waste they're generating these beasts from has to come from somewhere.  Maybe we could hijack a real waste-truck, fill it with explosives, and do the deed that way?  Like, drive the truck in, hop into the umbra, someone else remotely detonates?
+
 
+
Diverting forces to other targets may be worthwhile, but I'm not convinced that there really are extra resources allocated to this base or that our enemy really considers us a threat.
+
 
+
--[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 11:57, 23 April 2008 (MST) Back when I was considering a crazier version of Frank, Gabe reminded me that this is post-9/11, so large "terrorist" acts might not go over so well. As much as Frank is all about blowing up some BSDs, if we start truck-bombing buildings, all Pentax has to do is nudge the authorities just so and they could put some serious heat down on us. Now blowing up the building so it was in fact a leaky gas line or something? Golden.
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 13:56, 23 April 2008 (MST) There could be a *crazier* version of Frank? Heaven forbid!
+
 
+
I'm not going to be here this week, but (so?) here are my thoughts on the matter:
+
 
+
(1) We should attack the warehouse/factory ASAP.  I'm afraid they will beef up defenses too much or move the factory if we give them the time to do so.  I guess I think that our enemy sees us as more of a threat than Matt thinks.
+
 
+
(2) I agree with Wakhan that more reinforcements = better, though I also agree with Dio that we need a creative plan rather than an all-out straightforward attack.
+
 
+
(3) Christopher is going to attempt to figure out how to most effectively utilize his new rite.  One possibility might be enacting the rite somewhere away from the warehouse, and then escorting the Chinook spirit (through the Umbra, perhaps with Redemeer's help) to the site to ensure it isn't taken out by defender spirits.  This plan could easily be integrated with a number of the other plans, and would be a good redundant destruction plan.  That is, if explosives don't work (or the plan is thwarted), maybe the rite will.  Indeed, I like best the plan where we feint with a huge force (explosives or otherwise - I'm sensitive to Dieter's worries), pull as many guards as we can from the Umbra into the real world, and then move in in the Umbra (with the Chinook spirit Rite as our Umbral version of the explosion threat).
+
 
+
(4) Lastly, I think that the move on Talos (sp?) Industries could be done in a more clandestine manner, especially since all we want is the laptop. To the best of our knowledge, they don't know that anyone has any idea that the laptop is there, or that it is important.  And, since the Umbral approach looks difficult there, I think a spy-like real world approach is most promising.  One thought is to approach them as prospective business partners to get inside.  With Dio's computer skills and Christopher/Wakhan's ability with Enigmas, we could probably convince them that we have some killer code-encryption or something.  Also, Christopher's people skills (Befriend, Empathy) mixed with stealth skills (Invisibility ftw!) might allow him to move around inside. And, of course, Underdog, Lee's Character, and Frank make a to-die-for distraction/S.W.A.T. team.
+
 
+
--[[User:Matts|Matts]] 20:36, 23 April 2008 (MST)I think for the laptop, we could stage it like a gang robbery.  Underdog's got some gang contacts and the like, word could get out about some valuable shit being up in there, and "certain parties" could be interested in the laptop.  OR!  Dio goes to interview for an internship, some of us start a ruckus and allow him to get out with the laptop.  OR!  We impersonate the Mexican cleaning staff and nab it (Underdog speaks Spanish!).
+
 
+
BEN: I think the job app is a good idea, although we don't even have to get the laptop right away.  As long as I can get a fake id, so to speak.  Dio will want to research how information gets in and out of the factory: if they have phone lines, where do they run?  do they have radios?  Is there a courier that goes to and from the building?  could we jump said courier and get valuable intel off of him/her?  Do they do any communication or other stuff through the umbra?  Also, how would the weaver feel about this factory?  could we pass bumping it off off on their team?  As mentioned above, what sorts of delivery trucks go in/out?  Are they hooked up to the electrical grid?  If they have their own generators, they must be shipping in gasoline constantly.
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 10:00, 29 April 2008 (MST) So, can someone let me know what I missed last week?  What stage are we at in terms of our mad schemes and diabolical plans?

This page is for discussion of stuff related to the game coming up this week, no matter when that actually is. For instance, we can all assume Nate isnt coming for some lame reason and that Ed is sick of pizza and is bringing teriyaki or some other crap. They can post something here if that happens to be untrue.
