--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 18:52, 6 November 2006 (MST)again i cleaned this up.  i moved some supers conversation to the discussion page on jason's world politics.
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 00:30, 30 October 2006 (MST)i deleted the previous chatterwhat and where are we this week?  I'd like to keep on with WHFRP, to keep in the groove. <br>
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 00:30, 30 October 2006 (MST)I use the recent changes tab often and i am seeing these links to Matt's GM notes.  some have heading titles that maybe we should not see.  is there a way to sequester these from showing up on recent changes?<br>
+
 
+
--[[User:Matts|Matts]] 09:31, 30 October 2006 (MST)I'll just use more neutral headings maybe.
+
 
+
--[[User:Matts|Matts]] 15:33, 30 October 2006 (MST)So what game?  Ed wants to keep with WFRP; if that's the case, I want to know now so I spend my time getting the "adventure" ready instead of playing Okami.
+
 
+
--[[User:BenofZongo|BenofZongo]] 18:24, 30 October 2006 (MST)here here: I need to know too so I can...work out the gruesome battlefield in which the players find themselves.  I'm down either way.
+
 
+
--[[User:67.183.58.61|67.183.58.61]] 20:40, 30 October 2006 (MST)I think we should go on to PA.  See the Whfrp page for why.
+
 
+
--[[User:Dieter|DietertheBold]] 09:22, 31 October 2006 (MST) I'm down with either, but if we do WHFRP then I want some discussion as to our next steps, 'cause I'm a little tired of ambivalent wandering. I include myself in this statement.
+
 
+
--[[User:Matts|Matts]] 18:23, 1 November 2006 (MST)Unless someone says WFRP with some kind of force, then I say we go PA.  I'd theoretically be ready to go on WFRP, but it'd be the start of a mini-arc, so why don't we finish up the PA arc first?
+
 
+
--[[User:208.146.45.110|208.146.45.110]] 20:50, 1 November 2006 (MST)Ahem.  We are playing PA this week, as discussed in the warhammer section, or whatever it was.  We'll be playing PA for about three sessions, barring major events.
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 13:04, 3 November 2006 (MST)y'all have no sense of humor.  I can't believe I didn't get a single comment on my polish jokes.  [[World_politics#Poland]]
+
 
+
--[[User:BenofZongo|BenofZongo]] 13:23, 3 November 2006 (MST)No, those were brilliant...I've told them to a bunch of people already.  especially since at first I thought it was serious, and I was like "poland has superheroes?!"
+
 
+
--[[User:Jason|Jason]] 13:26, 3 November 2006 (MST)Poland ''does'' have superheroes, or more correctly, a superhero.  I just havent come up with a suitable name for them yet.
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 13:35, 3 November 2006 (MST)Since there is only one polish superhero, of the two I suggested, I would go with "Nail"
+
 
+
--[[User:Jason|Jason]] 13:51, 3 November 2006 (MST)If one of those were to be that name, Id have to agree because Germany already has Kettensage (Chainsaw).
+
 
+
--[[User:BenofZongo|BenofZongo]] 14:12, 3 November 2006 (MST)Fantastic.  my country gets the ultra gore besplattered psychopath hero.
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 14:23, 3 November 2006 (MST)Just because it's role playing doesn't mean that everything is a complete fantasy.  It has to be based in reality for it to be semi-believable.
+
 
+
--[[User:Jason|Jason]] 15:12, 3 November 2006 (MST)Actually, I chose Chainsaw because of the closeness with the Black Forest.  They also have Mr Amazing, Black Magician (again the Scwarzenwald was inspiration there-story element), and Giant.  What would be a good representation of German nationalism that isnt related to Nazism?  Speaking of, Ed, what would you consider good personifications of Chinese nationalism?
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 15:58, 3 November 2006 (MST)Oh boy.  i don't know.  thinking about some character that is "heroic" in china, what about Tank Man.  The guy who stood in front of that tank in Tiananmen Square.  what would his power be....something like ridiculous bravery and the presence that allows an unarmed man to stop a column of tanks.  See [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tank_man].  Other iconic images from china: the chinese lion [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_lion], or the chinese dragon [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_dragon].  Both are powerful cultural iconic figures.
+
 
+
--[[User:Matts|Matts]] 16:24, 3 November 2006 (MST)What about that martial arts hero Jet Li is always portraying?  Or the Monkey from Journey into the West?
+
 
+
--[[User:BenofZongo|BenofZongo]] 16:34, 3 November 2006 (MST)Just out of curiosity, how is it decided who gets how many heroes?  I mean, if developing superpowers is a stochastic event, you would expect there to be way more chinese heroes than anyone else: as a result, they'd totally dominate the world.
+
 
+
--[[User:Jason|Jason]] 16:36, 3 November 2006 (MST)Why yes, you would expect that wouldnt you...  These questions are asked all over the world of [[Exemplars]].

Revision as of 19:52, 6 November 2006

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.

The next step in WHFRP

Jacob wants to kill himself a von Teumar. let's hunt some witchunter.
Hassan has things to do in Quenelles, after that I can let you know my plans.

Matt: Note that you guys haven't emerged from the forest yet... the dramatic reveal is yet to come!
Ambros is waiting with baited breath...

Hmmm, it's going to be hard to plan much of anything if a major plot event is going to happen right at the start of the next session. Either way, Anjou pretty much feels there's nobody outside of the group that is trustworthy, and that basically the group has fulfilled it's mission. He believes Teumar to be very evil and so would like to eliminate him, since it seems apparent that we can't escape him. Anjou initially thought it might be a good idea to visit Altdorf and try to convince the emperor his empire was being fucked up but a.) what's the likelihood he'll believe us b.) what's the likelihood he doesn't have his own plans already? c.) what's the likelihood he'd trust us and/or use us for his own machinations? d.) what's the likelihood we'd make it in/out alive? So yeah, I'm pretty much game for whatever plan.


--Matts 20:32, 24 October 2006 (MDT)You're all on the road to Miragliano; discuss!

--BenofZongo 20:57, 24 October 2006 (MDT)Hurray! spain! WTF were you guys thinking? It sounds like we're sort of wandering aimlessly, I'd love to get some sort of sense where we're going, and why. Ed's notes on the WHFRP page were rather...vague

--67.183.58.61 21:16, 24 October 2006 (MDT)Im pretty sure Miragliano is in Italy. We chose that location because it was the nearest large city we could find, and with it being a port we could easily get anywhere.

--Edmiao 23:54, 24 October 2006 (MDT)Magnus (now an NPC) wants to go home to set up for war profiteering. Northman wanted to go north for unstated reasons. I think Ambrose wants to head back to Altdorf, although he never stated that specifically. The fastest route north was via nearest port, which was south. Jacob wanted to bee line it towards von Teumar directly North, and take him out, but this idea was met with an unfortunate lack of enthusiasm. Seem that some characters are afraid of vT after getting near killed by his fireball. whatever, pussies.

--Justin 09:54, 26 October 2006 (MDT) We are on the road to Talia because it was the only idea that Matt hadn't thought of and we thought we would give him some extra work to do. And for some reason, Hassan and Angus thought it would be a great idea...Besidesa dey hava da spaghetti der!

--Matts 10:18, 26 October 2006 (MDT)Do you guys know how you're gonna buy passage on a ship when you don't have enough money to buy decent mountaineering clothes?

--Edmiao 12:23, 26 October 2006 (MDT)Here's the thing. we kinda figured the gm would buy it for us, you know, like when we needed a boat before we ran into capt. Ahmed. Besides, if the gm is not willing, Angus can always open up a blacksmith shop and sell some swords.....hey, wait a minute....

--Matts 23:31, 26 October 2006 (MDT)So you think you can just blunder into whatever situation you want and the GM will bail you out? Oh, i blew all my money on hookers and cocaine and my mortgage payment is due tomorrow! The GM will fix it! Oh, I just told some crazy gangster that I fucked his mom last night, but the GM will bail me out! Oh, I just got stabbed by Von Teumar sword, but hey, it's the GM's fault!

--Edmiao 23:40, 26 October 2006 (MDT)Do I think that? No. Do our characters think that? apparently so. because we just set off on a long trip in the wrong direction to catch a boat that we can't afford. Does anyone have plans for catching a ride? Jacob proposes murdering a lot of rich Reiklanders and taking their money. seriously. you in Robert?

--Edmiao 10:54, 3 November 2006 (MST)I just crapped my pants after looking at the recent changes page. "GM's notes -- players don't read!‎; 16:55 . . Matts (Talk | contribs) (→Jacob's Untimely Demise by Unrelenting Rape)"

--Jason 12:48, 3 November 2006 (MST)Well Ed, I have just one thing to say to that: FINALLY

--Edmiao 12:59, 3 November 2006 (MST)Oh man, it keeps on going!! However, these are the GM's plans. last time he tried to kill jacob he just had to use godly GM intervention, despite what was it, 4 ork (i mean hill people) gang up. he's tough as nails (alternately lucky as stink) and not afraid to turn tail and run.

The Next Step in PA

Considerations for Angus and Grant (as in, don't go here if you ain't one of 'em)
Ed: aaaarrrrghghhhgh the temptation. must...resist....

Considerations for Wik: Stop breaking yourself!

Considerations for Hassan: Find hookers.

Considerations for Jason: write his considerations under the right fucking heading for fucking, fucker. Nobody's looking for hookers in PA...at least not that their aware of (See Considerations for Angus and Grant, above, unless your NOT Angus and Grant, in which case use your fucking imagination).

Considerations for who wrote this: know the difference between you're and your, and they're and their

Oh, and yeah Im a dunce for writing about Hassan in PA

--BenofZongo 20:56, 24 October 2006 (MDT)Agreed...I'm a dunce for mispelling you're and they're

--BenofZongo 15:58, 2 November 2006 (MST)As those who were in attendance at the last PA session know, we ended in the middle of a combat. A big, drawn out combat. I'll try to have things set up to make this go as smoothly as possible, but a large portion of this next session will be spent in combat time (as in, using turns). We'll start as soon as we have 4 players, or it is 7 o'clock, whichever comes 2nd, so try to be on time. Strict limits on how much time you may spend executing/planning your actions will be enforced.
