Current events

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.

Quote(s) of the week

Elemental: (to police chief, who thanked them for their good work) That certainly isn't going to help Viho's colossal ego. (or something like that...)

CyberJesus: I'm so sick and tired of this bullshit Thomas Kinkaid police state!

Ashbury: I grow plants that may or may not be used for pharmaceutical purposes

Ed/Aefra: "I use Seduction on the baby"

"Galen, you're wearing a dress." "Yes, but I still look better in it than in you do in your clothes."

Mass Effect

--Gdaze--Alright then my offical proposal is for Mass Effect. Keeping the pirate stuff ready for one shots. Is everyone okay with this? Are all players on board?

--Dieter the Bold 16:25, 5 June 2009 (MST) No arguments against Mass Effect universe. What game system are we using? What kind of campaign (colonists, survey/mining!!!, military, corporate)? Those are more important to me than what universe (pretty much).

Edmiao hook and game feel are most important for designing a campaign appropriate character.

GABE: I'm going to present some hooks, and I'd like the players to say which ONE they most like and which one they DON'T want to play. This is much as the player's game as it is mine.

I believe we will STILL use the WH40K system.

--Dieter the Bold 12:19, 6 June 2009 (MST) I'd like Smuggler most followed by Citadel. Least of all would be Specter/Shadow Ops.

GABE: Smuggler was actually a joke... After two games of that I was pretty sure we didn't want to do that, plus an entire game built around it is hard.

Edmiao Interested in Citadel because it would/could be sci fi minus the space ships, seems that the citadel is huge also, so you have lots of possible sci-fi other worlds possible, but contained on the citadel. i've frequently found our space combat systems to be rather hap hazard, and also it alleviates the "Captain, Navigator, Engineer" paradigms which i despise. "Artifact" Dealers - totally interested in this, in fact, i made a character specific to this game type previously..... unfortunately none of the other characters/players were interested...so meh. Shadow ops - meh. Spectres - meh. Bounty Hunters - i love Cowboy Beebop this could give a kind of episodic game type, but you could have some underlying plots...like cowboy beebop; easy hook, risks lack of depth. Noveria Secuity Detail - could be interesting, lots of possibilities in there for high tech, aliens, ancient powers..... Pirates - meh. Smuggler - NOOOOOOOoooooooooo!

--Gdaze 12:43, 7 June 2009 (MST) Yay, input! Alright so just need Ben and Matt to chime in. Yes, I was a bit worried about space combat as well. However after reading about how space combat works on the wiki, it is quite hard to actually have a full on battle. If one side starts to loose they just jump, and at that point it is impossible to catch them or track them. So most space combat happens at key points.

Also just so you know, Artifcat Dealers would be about selling them, nothing to do with ancient religions or anything like that... (because there is actually a religion in the game that thinks the Protien (sp?) tech is all holy and should belong to everyone...)

Other RPG or Non-RPG or Monthly Board Gaming Day gaming Events

--Dieter the Bold 12:59, 4 June 2009 (MST) Awesome fun with BSG: The Boardgame last night. Frakking Toasters managed to get us right before the end. I'm down for Twilight Imperium Friday night.

Edmiao been playing that downloadable Titan, thanks jason. it's pretty cool, and speeds up the gameplay considerably.

Next step in Of Amor, Armor, and Alchemy

Current OAAAA XP: 75 base + 277 XP

Plans to save Danny-Girl from the dragon

Fight the dragon, kill it

Lyra told us where to find the freezing Tears of _____ so we can put out the dragon's breath, right before she extinguished the eternal forge flame in our temple (bitch) by sucking its soul out like a vampire. She will help us fight the dragon. In return we agreed to let her strike the killing blow IF we successfully obtain the Tears. Other allies could also be enlisted in the fight.

Swindle all around

Talk to Grundbad, get him to fight the dragon and kill it. Also, talk to Oryxis, pledge to deliver the ruby shield in return he frees Danny-girl. Dragon dies: Danny free. Grundbad dies, danny free. Win - Win.

Deal with the dragon

Give the dragon something he wants more than Danny. Say the Ruby shield or freeing Iximion.

Dragon vs Dragon

Free Iximion, tell him Oryxis is getting up in his magic shit and doens't he want to kick the shit out of Oryxix for learning magic?
