Re: D&D-Day: The Ballad of Echo Company (OOC)
Awesome! Thanks for your posts guys, responses are in the pipeline but also I coming down with the flu or something like it so expect my posts to be more nonsensically sporadic than usual.

Re: D&D-Day: The Ballad of Echo Company (OOC)
IC we didn't do much with our loot list from here. We still have all of these right? We have time now to find out what some of these do. Ginger's prisoner may be of help for this. Claim what you want please!
Spoiler: Loot list

3 * Universal Antidote.
Tranq Pistol. Range 20/100. 6 dart mag. 2 mags. --> Doc

You and your… ‘psychos’ are too valuable doing what you’ve ended up doing twice, now - infiltration, elimination, destruction.
Time for a wish list. And an open persuasion roll! Feel free to shoot for the moon as far as the list goes, but as far as what you’ll get, that depends on the roll. Given that you’re the golden boy right now for flipping Dr. Schiller, you can roll with advantage.
Spoiler: Wish list ideasListing some general level ideas as a start.
Upgrade rings, change spells?
RPG type weapon
Stealth- active and passive
Radios - within unit and to command
Armor/Shielding
Emergency teleport
Improved weapons, scopes

Re: D&D-Day: The Ballad of Echo Company (OOC)
Looking back at our last level up, I noticed we rolled HP for the new level and got to reroll one previous level. I don't remember where that is from (not in the OOC OP) or if we area still doing it? Reference.
Past HP rolls: 10, 4, 7, 5, 10, 2
New level: (1d10)[4]
Reroll if valid: (1d10)[9]
Here's my Level 7 sheet, work in progress.Spoiler: GamesKeston Tornok for GF's AoW

Re: D&D-Day: The Ballad of Echo Company (OOC)
If nothing else, once I’m out of Medical you can expect Sal to start working on deciding what the different strips do when pulled. Some of those were very tempting but the uncertainty of what they could be doing made me never want to use them if the situation was too dangerous.

Re: D&D-Day: The Ballad of Echo Company (OOC)
The reroll was from a period of rest, which may get after thus but haven't yet.
Great ideas for requisition stuff! I think some short distance tactical teleporting would be awesome, even benign transposition type stuff would be really helpful.
Some way to immobilise a prisoner for extraction, bonus points if it stops them casting spells.
Something to create illusions either for stealth/cover or distractions.
Armour boosts to keep us all alive a little longer.
Anti-tank weapons!
For Doc - telekinetic surgical tools! For the busy surgeon who doesn't want to schlep all the way across a battlefield to remove magical bullets from someone.

Re: D&D-Day: The Ballad of Echo Company (OOC)
I was gonna request some sort of capacity upgrade so I had room for more offensive spells but the patches are quite likely to cover it in at least the Meduim term. Honestly despite being the magic item class I can’t think of any thematic magic items for Sal, though more movement options are always welcome. If at least one of us had flight capacity that would be a big upgrade.

Re: D&D-Day: The Ballad of Echo Company (OOC)
Anti-Armor weapons was definitely something on the mind. Ginger was planning to talk to Sal about that during down time. (Perhaps we can design something that can be fired off from a catapult spell. (Or perhaps a second level catapult now that he has 2nd lvl spells)
Perhaps higher end rifles? Perhaps a scope?

Re: D&D-Day: The Ballad of Echo Company (OOC)
Oops, totally forgot to pitch in on that!
Any other bases like that one he's heard about, any other weapons in general.
In particular, and known faults with Vult hardware we can exploit.
Same goes for the other Pakts, where they're based and what they can do. Any major players to target or avoid.

Re: D&D-Day: The Ballad of Echo Company (OOC)
Alrighty, I think we're about ready to wrap up out intermission and send you guys out on another mission mission.
Before I do that post however, would the four of you mind
1) Indicating to me the first and second things you most would like, from the wishlist, in order
2) Roll me a d20. Higher, as often, is gooder.Damien Wayne in Molan's Batman {D&D3.5e}

Re: D&D-Day: The Ballad of Echo Company (OOC)
My noble friends,
I am strugglin'. I loaded up myself with posts to write for - most as a player, some as a GM - when I was working a job I didn't care about and not sure what was happening next for me. As of two weeks ago, I'm doing some postgrad study and working only part-time, and I am finding it more creatively taxing. I'm trying to make small cuts in my 'post load' and, after some thought, The Ballad of Echo Company is the one I am considering. The other games I run are in universes I am very familiar with and I know where they are going; Echo Company is a wholecloth setting and I spend more stress (the good but timeconsuming kind) trying to decide where things will go, and how to present that direction in a 5E challenge.
But I also like this game and I like Doc and Ginger and Sal and Xilo, so I don't want to give them up completely - not if I don't have to. I'm only studying a Post Grad Certificate right now, which is just a 6 month course. I'm operating on the assumption that none of you guys are planning to delete your accounts at the end of the year, but would you lads be alright if we paused the game to pick it up again at the end of the year after I've cleared all my assessment? I'll message everyone to drag you back to the game at the time. I'm sorry the game has gone from regular, to irregular, to sparse right now; I fear if I just try to slug through I'll not do it justice and, arguably worse, do damage to my studies.
Interested in hearing everyone's thoughts; whether a break would be too distruptive or if everyone is happy to take one and come back after.Damien Wayne in Molan's Batman {D&D3.5e}
