It is infact, 3 players, with a rising player cap the crew get bigger ships, till there is a fleet of player controlled ships.

Quite epic in theory, not sure it whould live up to being epic though.

I have actually done most of the roll, I was just waiting for Ragdollmaster to confirm something for me and for FoiL to post. vlad, Asfer and BJJ are in pretty tight spots too

Yoman, is it too late to change my Electronics Expert to something else?

Excuse me, but Asfer has a giant ♥♥♥♥ mech, and BJJ can survive an impact from a top-speed bullettrain. I'm inside of a confined space with nothing but cybernetic enhancements to keep me happy while I'm about to be anally raped by the power of a blur. So don't go saying THEY're in tight spots, TOO.










Fake rage ?:D

Don't worry, backup is coming.

Better not let Yolady see that or (s)he will make you repost your action, woman! BE MORE COVERT!

Back of a truck sounds fine to me, although I find it hard to believe I was a hostage in an exo-suit...



That just means that it is recharged by light; it can still function in pitch-darkness, but energy will have to be spent wisely, or I'm pretty much dead in the water. Of course, it's not very high capacity, but it's not very low, either. Gyro would be a good example of energy consumption, except moving might cost anywhere from 2-10%, depending on the roll, and weapons and the ERA would consume 5-15%, also depending on the roll. If the suit's just idling, maybe 1%?


Strange, thought I specified height in there... Anyways, it would be one-and-a-half times taller than the average human, meaning that getting through normal-sized doors and narrow hallways would be nigh-on impossible... At least, without some redecorating...

Okay, that wasn't really my point, it's just that right now there's inequal distribution of power among the people; that's likely why Miss Duh left. But, uh, out of curiosity, if your mechsuit has INITIALLY infinite power, then what are its downsides to counteract the fact that it's a mobile artillery platform with a chaingun as the icing on the cake? Give us some downsides, believe it or not, this game is ♥♥♥♥ boring if all you're doing is raping the ♥♥♥♥ out of everything you do.

Less assess our various characters dangerousness, eh?

Fiona: Various abilities mean that her attacks roll a minimum of 3 (4 if she's angry), and Gyro gives an extra turn in a way. Always useful. On the other hand, without the Railsniper, she can't fight for crap, and would make an easy target, plus have some good loot.

Bob Jameson Jones: Him and Andrew are the current tanks of the group. BJJ is practically immune to physical attacks and small caliber bullets, and probably has limited protection from higher caliber bullets as well. Plus his various scanning items make it near impossible to sneak up on him. Oh, and a Pancor Jackhammer, a fully automatic shotgun.

Andrew: The other Tank. Immune to energy based weapons and blasts, and equipped with an AA-12, another full automatic shotgun. I'm sensing a pattern here. Andrew and BJJ are the most likely to be a threat to the Blurs, since they're the hardest to make die.

Tyrone: He has robotic Exo legs. He can run fast, and has a shoulder mounted railgun. He also gets +1 when firing while standing still. Oh, and an attack with a at least a 1/3 chance for an instant kill. Probably the most dangerous character right now.

Vladimir: The most important point for Vladimir is the Cybernetics, doubling his speed and giving +2 to actions requiring speed. This essentially makes him a knife ninja. He also has a shotgun, which when combined with his Cybernetics, turns Vladimir into Ahmad on hax from The Leet World. IE, not to be messed with.

Asfer (Point.Blank): Holy hell.
Okay, let's see. The armor gives him protection from impacts, some protection from bullets, crazy strength, and the sensor array on his shoulder let's him see enemies before they know he's there. His weapons are: A 40mm Revolver cannon (Explosive, Flash, Fragmentation, Smoke) that looks like a good anti-anything weapon, a vulcan cannon (Perfect for killing anything without heavy armor in a flash!), and a shield that dissolves bullets and has a deployable blade.

Why am I the only one who even ATTEMPTS balance?

Hyper, I attempted balance when creating me character, basically making it so that I could get around without dying by falling or some lame ♥♥♥♥ like that, and the resilience thing was because I don't wanna die. And me, I roll a minimum of 3 for up to 5 turns in a row, but if I row a 4, 5 or 6...well let's see.

Roll 1 - Complete Action as Stated
Roll 2 - Complete Action Seamlessly
Roll 3 - Complete Action Flawlessly, totally unharmed and raping whatever I do
Roll 4, Roll 5, Roll 6 - Complete Action Perfectly, then ♥♥♥♥ myself over immediately after
Basically, I'm probably gonna roll a six right now. And I'll end up...
Burning myself with the flairgun
Tripping, leaving myself as Blur-bait
Discharging a weapon into my nads
Any other various horrible things

So yeah, my cybernetics are a mixed blessing. I have a 50% chance of ♥♥♥♥ up each time I use it.

if you guys wait about an hour then I can get home, read everything more thoroughly, post the roll and address all concerns.

EDIT:
Unless you find some way to change your ability during the game LEGALLY then no.

You haven't seen the next roll yet. I'm giving insight on what is happening.

Roll is coming up. FoiL Tyrone will do something obvious.

Hyperkultra (4) Fiona Lovagale
She whistles to Gryo and walks out of the Back Storeroom into the main room of Mess Hall, then out the door to the South Side of the Compound. Fiona wonders where Rachel would be, and goes to ask for Gyro's opinion. However, Gyro isn't hovering over her shoulder any more. She cocks her head in confusion, then double-taps the Talk button on her radio. She sees Gyro then fly out of the doorway of the Mess Hall, but she has lost some time. She heads to the Convoy, surely where a Medic would be.

caekdaemon (2) Bob Jameson Jones
"Sorry! Let me come to you!" BJJ announces. He grabs the Silver Case, slings his Pancor over his shoulder and, using him Night Vision Monocle, walks toward the West Garage Door. A man is waiting there for him. He wears a dirty guards uniform and a bandage over his left shoulder. His Helmet is dented and he looks frightened, enough to make his Flashlight and handgun shake in his hands. When BJJ comes into the light, the Guard frowns at him, and stops shaking from fear.
"Who are you? Where's your ID?"
BJJ looks lost. "ID? I don't have anything except this retarded briefcase here." He gestures to it.
The Guard's eyes widen when he sees the Silver Case. He points his handgun and flashlight into BJJ's face.
"Hey, what - !?" BJJ shields his eyes with a hand.
"I am placing you under arrest as a Guardsman of this Military Installation. Put your hands behind your back now!" The Guard forcefully takes the Silver Case out of BJJ's hands and throws it to one side.

Ociamarru (4+2=6) Vladimir Ivanov
Your Cybernetics are already in use.
Going into a crouch, Vlad pulls out his Flare Gun. He dives backwards through the canvas flap, leaving a jagged hole from the force of his flight, reverse-commando-rolls into a crouch and fires the flare up into the night sky. Unfortunately, the Blur is just as fast as him and ends up right above Vladimir when he fires. It sizzles into the Blur's torso and it crashes over the top of him. (Death roll: 6) Vlad, again, acts quickly and flips its body over his head and behind him. Finally with a bit of slack, he yells:
"MEN! MANN ZE MACHINEGANNZ! VEER BEING ATTEYK'D!"
He hears a growl from behind him, and realised he just left himself quite open to attack.

Point.Blank (2) Asfer
The dice roll determined the situation I put you in. Slightly changed from what I posted though. You are not in your Exosuit. Good luck.
Asfer raises his eyelids slowly, his head pounding.
"Uuuhhhhhrrrr..." he groans. He tries to pull his hands apart, but they refuse. Tight bonds hold them together, as well as his ankles, to a simple wooden chair. A dim light glows above him, and he hangs his head from even that little amount of brightness. He feels hungover. Something drips from his nose.
"Ahhh, it looks like Sleeping Beauty has finally woken up! Now tell us, was it Grumpy? Or maybe Dopey? AH-hahahaha!" A strangly-accented voice mocks. A chorus of voices laugh. A hand raises Asfer's chin to the light, and he squints.
"If you don't tell us, we'll just keep on beating you. It's as simple as that." A Deep Voice says. The hand drops his chin, and a grating metal-on-metal sound comes from in front of him.
"No, we will give him a break. Let him find his marbles first, eh hehehehe...We'll play with his toy suit for a while." The Accented voice says again, slightly fainter.
"They still haven't broken in?" The metal door closes with a heavy, low slam.
Asfer's eyes pop open, crisp as ever. His arms hang and his feet slouch, but his eyes dart around like flies on a white plate. His mind works like a machine.
The light is too high, no use. The door is one-sided. No cameras. Rope is synthetic. Too strong. But this chair is old. Brittle. If I could tilt my weight...

Lets re-assess the characters!


EDIT2: Thats better. Also just a quick picky reminder that speech is bold and actions are underline. No worries really though. Don't bother editing again. I blame the Gramma Nazis.
