Only a sense of uncertain doom...

Edit: On another note, do you agree with me that now would be the best time for Marcelus to show some photos of his family to everyone in the room? (He could add a sentence or two about how happy he is to see them soon as well or maybe he could share his plans what he wants to do once the war is over)

Edit 2: Just consider Marcelus's point of view: Being Forced to spend the last days in a Hutt prison probably was certain doom for him. Dueling with some Imperial goons while blaster fire rains on him? Sounds fine for Marcelus, as long as everyone stays civilized. Destroying an Imperial listening outpost? No problem. Defending himself in a court where almost any shred of evidence speaking in his favour is forged? Bring it on. Spending several days without good food, tea or a bath? Ahhh, the horror... With the promise of fresh clothes, a good meal and an excellent tea within the next few hours, the future looks quite bright indeed (at least for the moment).

Also you now all have 0 Duty, since you've gone up a Contribution rank! This will be handled narratively, but if anyone wants to put in a reward request I'm open. No Duty is triggered this session, and remember to delete all strain. I think that's everything for the start of the session. I've messaged Revanchist, and I'll give him a few days before I open up recruiting.

Ooooh! What do we get?? What do we get?

Actually, what is our Contribution Rank now? 2?

You're rank 1 now. While I appreciate that Duty is its own reward you probably also want something with a stat line so I'm open to suggestions. Just remember it can't be better than Rarity 4, so that's still probably a good chunk of the armoury.

Down with the flu. Should be able to post later today or tomorrow.

Well I certain lost track of time, and didn't see that message on the 21st, oops. 15xp went towards the third rank of mechanics, I've been eyeballing those armor crafting rules in Keeping the Peace.

It's good to have you back, Revanchist7!

Concerning our Duty reward:

I don't have the AoR core, so I'm not sure what we can get. If I understand you right, we can request any item up to a rarity of 4?

Marcelus pretty much has already all the gear I want him to have - maybe an armor modification?

Marcelus as a character would love to have free reign on the next mission's allowable expenses of course - he'd like to spend it on expensive food and wines, excellent accomodation and so forth.

But I'll follow the others' lead: If there's anything we need in particular, I'd vote for getting that, whatever it is, first.

It would probably help to know the next mission's parameters first, if there are any. Maybe we need to get something specific to enable an elaborate scheme...

We could also request a vehicle of rarity 4 or lower, I think. But I could get on board with some gear/attachments.

You can request any item that is likely to be in the ship's armoury and has a Rarity of 4 or less. Otherwise the only limit is that you don't do what my face-to-face group did today and all ask for a 9000-credit biome generator. Seven of those together makes for a party who are suddenly very interested in the black market in local systems...

Well, I don't really need the gear. On the other hand, a vehicle could be quite useful (or maybe not, depending on our next missions)

Bearing in mind it's Rarity 4...

I've left the IC thread somewhat open, but if I need to put in a conversation hook to keep it going I can. Alternately if you want to get this sorted out first I'm game.

I can start the conversation, but I won't be able to post until Saturday (GMT+1). Unfortunately I won't be able to find the time neither today nor tomorrow to post a lenghty reply.

I don't have any particular gear requests for Ashrym.

Any chance Rast could get a Strength Enhancing System for his heavy battle armor?

And if so, maybe we could do a bit of modding action? If someone would like to chip in 7 credits so that I can afford a mod... :-D

I think he can get that piece of gear, despite the steep cost. Darn you rarity rules!

I don't have any requests. I'll spot Rast the 7 credits, because Rion is such a generous guy.

...why are you all looking at me like that?

No idea what Jeren could get that might be of use. Maybe some lightsaber or crystal modifications? Although I do not have the book with me at the moment, so I remember neither the costs nor the rarity.

No Lightsaber mod has a Rarity less than 6 I'm afraid.

Yeah, the Strength Enhancing System looks really nice... (Especially for a melee fighter like Marcelus).

Can I get one, too?

Unless there's anything crucial to get for our next mission. I think, I'll wait until the end of the debriefing until I decide what to get.

You can indeed get one. It might be useful, you never know.

Revanchist7, now's your time to step forward. Well, roll forward but you know what I mean.

Well, than I'll take the Strength Enhancing System as well.

Concerning modifications: Should Marcelus make a Mechanics roll or could someone else in the group help him?

Someone could help if I've read the rules right.

Thank you, ColonelCommissar.

Does anyone want to help Marcelus adjusting and modifying his armor attachment once he gets it?

And Rast as well I'm afraid Mechanics is not really my strength...

Teenine is at 3 yellow for machanics and also has a talent (Gearhead) that halves the cost of mods. Ashrym has 4 green for mechanics checks, but nothing else.
