Adrian Moss Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 OH Joy! Nukes next to a Mutant Internment Camp. More mutations anyone?And B5 was the best! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Kincaid Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 B5 ranks near my top, we need to see how Lost and BSG end but I'm confident that BSG at least will be in the top 3I also rather enjoyed ST:DS9, for me it was the best of the STs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adrian Moss Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Me too. It felt the most real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargaizer Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 Personally I hated DS9. TNG was my favorite, seconded by Voy; personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Fox Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 B5!!!I hated Voyager through, they were the universe's little bitch. Everywhere they went they were constantly getting punked by one alien after another. And don't even get me started on their hanger bay of infinite shuttles. They lost more shuttles in the course of that series than the freakin ship had mass.I did like DS9 above all the other star treks though because it had a meta-plot. Something that tied the episodes together. Enterprise could have been good if they'd had someone other than that sad-sack captain Scott Suckula.

Rorx Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 B5 was the best followed by DS9 and TNG, voyage and Enterprise were a waste of space.I wouldn't go so far about Backula, personally the writing was just so crap with them contradicting ST 'known' history regularly and for no reason.

Tim Wiley Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 For me it was a DS-9, followed by B5. I enjoyed Voyager as well as TNG. BSG is a good show as well. I don't think much of Lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joani Posted February 24, 2009 Author Share Posted February 24, 2009 Rorx - I will have to reroll you're blast in your post. Using Lethal Blast and Shield in the same turn is a multiple action which penalises you with 2 dice reduced poolSo you roll actually 5 dice instead of 7 for your attack there. I will make a roll for you on IC and follow through with the result. Everything else looks fine to me. Just wanted you to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Kincaid Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 While I'm sure its not an issue I should note as well that you need at least Node 1 to spend 8 quantum per turn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joani Posted February 24, 2009 Author Share Posted February 24, 2009 good that you pointed it out - he does not. That application of the Shield will be lowered so he can cover it as a safe use. The soak will be adjusted accordingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargaizer Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 potions are good for two days from the date of manufacture, so no, yours is just bottled water now Adrian.I told you not to stop taking your meds just because you felt better... but did you listen, no nobody ever listens to the Dr., the Dr. doesn't know what he's talking about...sheesh.*throws up his hands and storms off, just to come back a minute later because people need him* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rorx Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Thanks for that Travis/Joani I had thought that 8qp/turn was the limit before you needed Node, but that was obviously misremembered.Joani sorry about the Multiple action hassle, although I didn't think about it at the time as Shield doesn't require a roll.

Adrian Moss Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 What is the limit for spending Q, because Node 0 means 6q/turn. Has node changed at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joani Posted February 25, 2009 Author Share Posted February 25, 2009 Node is still a background you can take and it has the same effects like in the book. Difference is - the Node is not the source of your power - just a "muscle" with which you can control energy to fuel your powers (quantum).This game uses the Abby-rules but there is no quantum science or whatever it may be called. Your node can be that grey lump of matter in your forehead or just a metaphor for your ability to channel quantum. It is a genetic "advantage". In that regard there cannot be something like a node-dissection to remove it and "steal" your powers. A mutant stays a mutant. It is genetically imprinted in his being.There ARE ways to suppress Mutant powers, though. Just not those you know from canon (there is no knowledge about Mox, Soma and all the drugs printed in the books). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad you're ok with it. Travis didn't mean to point that out to make your life harder - it is a rules thing and we all need to abide to those, even if I eventually may bend or break them for the stories sake.However, the result of the post wouldn't have been that much affected since I got what I wanted But we should still keep things in the frame.

Joani Posted February 25, 2009 Author Share Posted February 25, 2009 I'm mostly up to date now - the new Main thread containing the main plot arch will open soon. I have to wait on some responses by Juno/Adrian and Lena/Sly.After that I can wrap up those threads too and we should be starting together in the main thread by the end of this day. I try to make it as fast as possible but I also don't want to break the suspension just for postings sake. Please be patient and bear with me.

Travis Kincaid Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I think the intent is that he didn't have time to finish the opening post and want us to wait. Beats me though ...Also yes, EXP is a good thing, now I can buy stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joani Posted February 27, 2009 Author Share Posted February 27, 2009 rewards for the completed fictions:Travis - Learning to fly - 2XPTravis & May - Old Friends, New Friends - 3XPAdrian & Kevin - A day at the Doctor's - 3 XPJuno - Hanging by a Hair - 3 XP (I liked this one very much)Adrian & Travis - Blank Slate - 2 XP------These rewards shall encourage you to write more fics about your PCs - I don't care if you portray flashbacks or any other event of your lives as long as it is worthwile reading it I don't mean to demotivate those who haven't submitted any fics yet. I know some simply lack the time and others lack inspiration. If the latter is the case try to hook up with one of your fellow players and work something out. I'm sure you'll find a way to colaborate on something great.The game's balance is geared towards the XP I hand out for the Chapter's so there is basically challengwise no disadvantage for you PC if you don't write fics. Take the extra XP as an edge I grant the heroes of this story - you can take advantage of it or not. My aim is to add more detail to this game and hopefully with loads of fics on your side.If you want me to colaborate in a fic portraying NPCs or whatever you want me to do, drop me a PM. I will gladly help you out.Part 2 will be posted tonight - then you can lift off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joani Posted February 27, 2009 Author Share Posted February 27, 2009 I'm a bit confused by your post Stargaizer. Maybe I failed to clarify. You are not at the hospital anymore. You are in one of the alcoves that just has gotten opened by Ronnie. There are cables attached to your body (like in Matrix) and something that resembles divers-mask on your face that provided you with oxygen.I'm sorry if that wasn't clear.
