Yes, we live in the dark ages at work...my neighbor had her bill delivered by carrier pigeon recently...
OK good. I son't think I am using anything that was added after 1.2 or so, except maybe the mousewheel support. I'll play around with it this evening and see what I can come up with.
It's all in java, so I may be able to easily port it to the droid (again, without the mousewheel :) ). That way you can plan your combat moves while sitting on the can at work.

As it stands now the only person So Leet can talk to in a language no one else would get is Z2-KP while speaking Cerean. And I doubt much would be heard with Dood screaming "THIS IS NOT CANON! TIMELINE ERROR! SOMEONE CALL LUCAS!" over and over.

I thought he was just making a horrible pun with that name until I read a little more in the rulebook. :oops:

See? Because of me, Whitey learned something today.

And I think a lot of people took Shriwookiee because they thought it might be helpful to be able to talk to Arrican, who then surprised us by switching from walking carpet to forehead man.

That name in the rule book is the primary reason he picked that race when he decided he didn't want to pantomine for the whole game.

I decided I wanted to play something completely against my normal grain. He's intelligent and thinks things through.

Yeah not me. I'm going to just speak cerean from here forward to fuck with Dood.

Just write jibberish when you do that and PM me what you said so I can decide how Z2-KP translates it, if he wants to translate.

I'm glad you did, because I decided against computer/tech skills after seeing Kit had taken them with his scoundrel.

Well since we are waiting for Happy to roll initiative on his droid I suppose we could start combat and stop at Wailer because the absolute highest Z2-KP could get would be a 19 (that pesky -1 modifier).

So Bulwark you start us off.

Hey Bulwark, shouldn't unholstering your carbine be a move action instead of a swift action? Not that it would change anything you did since you could have 2 move and 1 swift, I'm just curious.

You are probably right (I dont have the book with me). Either way, I think everything still fits in.

It's a move action unless you have the Quick Draw feat. I only caught it because I've been trying to study the combat section today so I don't completely screw it up. But yeah, everything still fits.

Bulwark don't you think you are over reacting with the gun drawn?

They said they just want to talk....

Yes, You are probably right. I'll put it away in the next round and go have a talk with them.

You can move 6 squares per turn (unless you double up move actions). Each square is 1.5m ~5 feet.

the door doesn't really exist after what the gammorean and duros did with the shock grenade. Also you guys can assume that the west wall of the church has a bunch of windows. the ones on the west are cracked or broken. Future maps I'll be sure to specify more closely.

Oh and I forgot to chastise bulwark for this but all posts incombat mode must start with a line of stats like:

HP 24 (Threshold 13) FortD 13 RefD 17 WillD 17 Speed 6, atk +2, Dex +2

I don't provide that information on your enemies beyond written descriptions of their state since asymmetrical information is part of the game.

And Whiteness I noticed today you got your threshold wrong, it should equal your fortitude defense not your reflex defense.
