Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Sounds good...
1) A combination gadget would be available, but that would add time needed to fill the order - the guys in Gunmetal will have to put it all together.
2) NVGs will need visor up.
1) Taking out mobile camps could be worth your while. One or two TL 8 items, at least.
2) Yeah, it's worth $2 per ration and $6 per gallon of gasoline, counted against the worth of what you want to buy. Simple stuff.Anachronism will never high-light the folly of my convictions!

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Oh, custom-made. Neat. We'll wait and we'll pay up front. I rather thought I would just order something that might be popular enough in the Old World. One more combination item is IR Tactical Light / Flashlight with built-in IR Laser. It is a combination of:
1. Large IR Tactical Light
2. Shoulder Arm IR Targeting Laser
By HT157 special ruling these can be combined by adding the cost and will just share the weight, which would be 0.3 pounds for the whole thing (+0.4 for the batteries). It would serve:
1. 2 hours x 100 yards as IR Tactical Light OR
2. 20 hours x 10 yards as IR Flashlight OR
3. 100 hours x 750 yards as IR Targeting Laser
The Flashlight mode is just power setting for those IR LEDs, so paying the cost, but no extra weight. Expecting it to be a near-enough IR for Sean to see, will have it checked with any other IR gear before placing the order.
Sean's plan is to chat over the radio, do some clarifications, negotiations and accounting, then take Bart and drive to Gunmetal to deposit the goods and place the order. He will be back by the evening and propose to relocate to Waffle House right away so that Richard can start questioning the mutants tomorrow morning. We sure have some topics to discuss. If no objections, I'll write this IC, hopefully some time today.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Regarding the Glock, I imagine he can repair and upgrade it, I need to take a closer look at the numbers. The assault vest + plate for the front torso should be good, I think both ballistic leggings and a ballistic helmet would also be beneficial (although really if you get shot in the head with a rifle, even that doesn't help all that much). I'm lugging a 15 lb. grenade launcher, so mobility is already going to be comprised.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
I'm not sure how effective he will be at repairing the Glock, in retrospect; Tariq has One-Task Wonder (Armoury defaults to IQ when rigging munitions). When he gets another CP I can upgrade that to Armoury (Small Arms), but until then I'll be repairing at default, so might be better off inventing a new gun using the broken Glock for parts.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
I think that's it for today. Sean's proposal for tomorrow would be to make remaining 40 bullets and try getting Stone to cooperate... like draw a map of north-western facilities maybe, if he would be so kind. Keeping him separate from the rest from that moment on, just in case.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Sean, are you doing anything before we pass time to the next day?

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Not really. And likely not the next day either. Sean does not have much social nor technical competences and, given the location, does not want to go outside and hunt. He will patricipate in all Richard's interrogations, but otherwise does not plan to do much unless we have any news from any party (Snowbunnies, Chalmers, Gunmetal men, Funny Platoon / Radar Base radio operations, Mutants, etc.).
UPD: In fact, given that we have a pickup, driving somewhere to hunt is certainly possible, so Sean does just that. Sorry to have me delay everything and Gnomes will probably kill me...Last edited by u-b; 2022-01-25 at 07:15 AM.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Can we move on to Day 63, then?

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
You could do that. In fact, I think you should.
Haven't done the actual math, but that was intended to include both Richard's and Sean's and is included in our total of 200. Also, the components was bought for just that amount, so nope, and doing the actual math is probably not worth the trouble anyway.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Can't catch a break here. Tariq's recovery roll works, physician's fails, now at 5 hp for day 63.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Here's the updated proposal. The credit deal was to be proposed to Snowbunnies (read carefully - Gunmetal was just mentioned at that point), but I would like you to keep Gunmetal's interest in the goods other than food and fuel, this might be handy for Sean to know. Also, the whole credit thing should not be too scary as Sean insists giving the stuff back is an acceptable option if we fail to agree on any other way of repayment. Losing (some of) it in combat against a common enemy would also be good, as normal for lend-lease.
Yes, I don't have any of those distances recorded where I can easily see them, so give me three numbers and I'll do the rest.Last edited by u-b; 2022-01-27 at 12:35 PM.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
A roll of Interrogation takes a base time of 1 hour. You took extra time, but you can roll again this same day.
The mileage are 25 miles (Waffle House to Ski Resort), 100 miles (Ski Resort to Gunmetal one trip), and 120 miles (Gunmetal to Waffle House one trip).
The Snowbunnies are not accepting of the deal - things are too uncertain in their end to arrange a line of credit.Last edited by Shoot Da Moon; 2022-01-28 at 03:13 AM.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
I think we should be at the Waffle House main base, if only because the slaver camp is of too little interest to anyone to remain equally well defended. So, it would be where we dumped all the prisoners, etc. We will post our own guard every night, but that would be not the only person guarding, so should be safer.
The things from Gunmetal? Great! Sean will proceed to sort them. What about the stuff we sent to the Radar Base? Can they confirm it has arrived?
I am at a loss about what else Sean can do while Tariq is recovering. Will probably plan the interrogations. Sean has a number of questions about the north-western facilities. Stone has had no reason to have this information on paper, but if he was there, he could say quite a lot...

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
Rolled a critical failure for Tariq and a failure for the physician, use Luck to re-roll the critical failure twice getting a failure and a success. He's now up to 6 hp. With a 83.8% and 74.1% chance of success per day, on average he should be recovering about 1.5 hp per day, but over the last four days it's been one per day, it's brutal.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
2 hours is a +1 bonus, 4 hours is a +2 bonus.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
There is no 1-hour base as such, unless you hereby mandate it. Historically, we went with "lenghty interrogation" definition as per B202, which is 2+ hours. We have assumed it's not per question (questions are listed as 5 minutes a pop). Also we have not considered the prisoners lying, but we can roll against that too, if it becomes relevant (e.g. if someone tries lying). I think you can read the skill and state how we will be using it, so that both sides know all of the relevant details.

Re: Worse Than the Disease OOC
The previous Interrogation sessions used 1 hour per roll base time.
