The Taris Event Chapter 3 OOC Thread

Correct, you go with the higher minimum and higher average. It's unfortunate your max doesn't go up, but it is what it is.

Also of interest is the fact that because it's a standard blaster pistol it's technically a small weapon as opposed to the hvy blaster pistol being a medium weapon. How that's interesting is that small weapons can be used in concealable holsters and mediums cannot.

oooh I didn't think about that...shazbot

We can revist loot distribution at a later time if needed as well. Thats the nice thing about PnP, nothing is bind on pickup or any crap like that so when we are done we can have a more in-depth discussion about trading items, etc if we feel it necessary.

Don't worry.

Syric would have given the pistol to Cuspar anyways after the shots he had last night

So I just double checked the rules and Bulwark is right, Aiming does take 2 swift actions, not just one. So from here on out it looks like I can only aim if I don't move that round.

Also for whitey's current attack - attacking with 2 weapons is a full round action, so you can't move in the same round other than make a 1 square shift so he's going to have to negate his second attack.

I assumed he was just outside of view and did the one square shift to shoot soldier 1 making him open to Soldier 2's attack.

Works for me as long as that all means we are right by that hallway

I assumed you distributed loot ad crept up to the corner of the hallway and that is where we started.

[Whiteness]

Yeah, I wasn't thinking about that. I had assumed the movement up to where I drew and shot were out of combat and not part of the Move action (the gun drawings were free actions).

Mental note - new combat rule - never stand adjacent or in the same square as an ally unless you absolutely have to

[Blackferne]

If Soldier 3 had died I would have been lobbing grenades so yeah good mental note.

Ohhhhh, they have grenades?!?! Yeah, I'm restocking then as we go and I will fight So Leet for them if necessary...

[Blackferne]

Please refer to the Threats of the Galaxy rule book pg 92. They are those. You can loot anything you find there up except the datapads.

[Whiteness]

Blackie, I picked up an Armored Flight suit correct? Would it be correct to assume this is not something I would be wearing normally?

The only image I found in reference to it was:

if it is something I would not be able to wear a jacket over or in some other way use my concealed holsters, I was wondering if you could change it to Battle Armor, Light http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Light_battle_armor

It has the same stats but does not include the 10 hours of life support. I was hoping I could wear my shoulder holsters under the jacket in the image or wear a jacket over them.

I'm just curious because the other flight suit (padded) specifies it comes with a helmet but the armored one does not (I guess it's implied?) and I don't see Syric walking around with the helmet and life support setup, but the other armor does look like something he could wear in most situations.

Though, if it is not reasonable for him to be wearing either armor in day to day situations, I would like to know that and I would just stick with what I have.

[Blackferne]

yeah you can swap it.

[Whiteness]

Also, it would probably be a good idea to discuss the distribution of funds from our last job.

We have 100K going to Aderbrent, with Syric, Klak, Cuspar, So Leet being the members who participated. (as mentioned Bulwark, Tony and Jax were not included in this payout).

Since there seems to be a wish to payback Aurelius we deal with that first. Dood, you are holding his credits still, correct?

Aurellius' current total (2810) + 7190 = 10K <we set aside all his cash to pay him back later but keep it as an emergency fund>

The last payout is here viewtopic.php?f=26&t=260&start=80050% went to the company, 25% to wages and 25% to dividends. I think we should take the 7810 off the top to leave us with 92190.

Option 1, continue with the previous payout and decide if Dood should get any

Option 2, look into paying back our investment before splitting up the money. I was going to suggest subtracting out previously paid dividends, but I don't think it will add up to much to matter. The cost of paying back everyone's initial investment is 11370, which would leave 80820 left to be divided.

Thoughts?

[Whiteness]

Cool, do you think it is something Syric would be wearing all the time? I'm just trying to keep my fantasy character realistic...wait..yeah..

I'd say putting aside the Arillius portion is a good idea.

As for the rest, how does ownership of Aderbrent shake down, with Eli having left? Are you suggesting the investments be paid out and the balance be split evenly?

And FWIW, Cuspar would be ok with Dood getting an equal share on the Tsont'Ar job based on compassionate reasons.

Eli collected his ownership stake prior to his departure so his stake was set back to 0. A brother needs some cash to make his way from place to place ya know.

I think Arrican wanted to get his investment paid out so he could go his own way or something like that, but here is the breakdown from the spreadsheet minus Eli.

Arillius 10000 46.79%
So Leet 8964 41.95%
Eli 0 0.00%
Cuspar 1036 4.85%
Syric 1000 4.68%
Dood 370 1.73%


We could pay everyone back and split everything evenly (after setting aside a portion for company money) which may be the best option. Or at least pay everyone back so we can start on equal footing. I'm not worried about Dood, if he comes back to Aderbrent I'm sure the Alvians will help him with funding.

[Whiteness]

With everyone paid pack, the ship becomes company property with no one having a larger stake in it.

Again, after paying back Arillius, we'd have his 10K sitting as emergency funds, then paying back everyone's investment would leave us at dividing 80820.

Is everyone Ok with that so far?

Since Dood did not do anything I would only split up the rest between the four of us (though we could discuss if and how we want to give him a cut).

If we set aside 20820 for company purposes that would leave us with 60K or 15K each. This is just a starting point for discussion, I'm open to anything.

[Cuspar]

That sounds fine to me. There's no need for Aderbrent to be a money making operation for some and not others - we're in it to find Porkville Blackchop.

True but nothing says it can't be a money making venture if we wanted it to be.

And, if no one offers Dood a cut of the funding, Klak will be offering him 1/3 of his to thank him for all he has done.

[Whiteness]

This is why I'm not worried about Dood but also feel it would be 'wrong' to give him a cut. Syric would be open to discuss this if anyone felt he should get some cut.

As to a money making venture, what are we really going to do with 15K each? I might go back and suggest a bigger cut for the company once other people weigh in, because the major costs in my mind are ship related. We are still making payments on it and we will probably want to upgrade at some point.

It ain't my money obviously, but I'd say alot of that money after percentages are paid out should go to upgrading the ship NOW. Upgrading shields and weaponry being some of the top priorities.

Yes. Pay off the ship. Upgrade the ship. Hand out small amount left for use to get a drink.
