Topic: Weird War II Q n A
Subject: Nomad and YeOlde


With Nomad's RL situation and the passing of YeOlde, I am ay odds with how to proceed in the game. My gut instinct is to end this games and move on. But there are still three of you playing and I don't want to leave you if the interest is still there.

So let me know your thoughts. I will not have another player take YeOlde's character. I do not believe that is respectful. Brutal will be NPC'ed until he can be taken out of the story in a heroic or befitting way.

I am thinking of starting a RPG based on Supernatural the TV series. You'd play Hunters of the supernatural in the Real World. If we end this game, all of you are welcome to join that one.

YeOlde messaged me that he has some serious health issues that are going to sideline him and I read Nomad's mesage about his RL.

Both of you are in my thoughts and I hope things work out as best they can. Don't worry, I will NPC until you are ready to come back.

Subject: search and .....



Alliance Cruiser Erikson Docking Bay 4c

"Listen up!" Colonial Sanders said loudly and firmly to the six alliance security officers awaiting his orders. His fellow Marshalls, Hicks and Vasquez stood behind him, relaxed but ready for action in the black uniforms. "This is a routine search for passengers not on the crew manifest. I do not want this ship trashed! I do not want any cargo opened, broken, or turned over unless I say so. A routine sweep, and be polite. Yes, I said polite. You do not need to know why and you do not need to wonder so just do as i say or you will look upon my man Hudson's job of cleaning every toilet on this ship as easy! Do you understand?"

"YES SIR!" The men answered in unison.

"Good. Vasquez! Hicks! Anyone disobeys my orders, I want you to put them out the nearest airlock. Understood?"

"Yes Captain." Vasquez answered and Hicks just nodded.

Destiny Cargo Bay.

The crew assembled in the cargo bay to await boarding. Ken was securing a back plan A though C under the floor and Grace was going over in her mind every exit, hidden exit and really really hidden exits that were in the room. "Looks like we in trouble again" she said outloud.

The door to the cargo bay was knocked on three times in succession. The Captain released the doorway and the cool ozone filled air of the alliance cruiser filled the noises of everyone waiting. In walked the white haired Captain/Colonel with two of his men from the planet, the voluptuous Vasquez and the silent Hicks - in full black dress uniforms too. Then behind them six security officers in armour, helmets and carrying rifles came in, split into two groups and flanked the Marshalls on either side. they did not point the weapons at you though, but held them at ready.

"Ahh. We meet again Captain Brown. I see you found a cargo. Wine? of course. At least you aren't flying empty?"

(small talk)

"My apologizes but I have the unfortunate task of finding some fugitives. I normally wouldn't be involved in this, but for some reason the orders were sent to me directly. Puzzling actually. Anyway i wish to put this behind me. We will be searching your ship for any of the smugglers that may have eluded capture. You wouldn't know anything about that?"

(assume no)

"Didn't think so. This is formality really." He waves his hand and the two groups leave to look over the ship. "But it is always the ship you don't search that is the problem."

(small talk)

"So you are going to Baron Otello's party! I hear it is quite the event. " The colonel walks over to the wine barrels and leans on one casually, "So this is THE wine? Heard about it. Suppose to be excellent. I'm not much into wine myself but I am sure you are being paid well. What is the going rate these days?"

(some elusive answer)

"Ahh." he says and taps the barrel in the centre a few time. "Yep. That is full." He continues and taps each one a number of times and then walks away from the barrels."Smugglers. never know where they are winning to hide. found some in the ventilation shafts of a septic system once. Now that's dedication to hiding."

(comments, questions)

After 30 minutes the teams return and reform ranks. Vasquez shakes her head at the colonel and he nods. "Right! Sorry about that. I thank you for your cooperation and time. I hope we didn't delay you too much."

(parting remarks)

The Alliance officers and the Marshalls leave the ship and the cargo bay is sealed again. Within fifteen minutes, the cruiser is detached and you are given clearance to leave.

Ash has taken 7 wounds and 7 stun (he had 18 wounds/stun). He took more but Ody used plot points to lower the damage.

Frisco, Day Nine 11:20 pm Planet Time

Apollo and Andrew took cover from the explosion and then the horror of what happened the possible fate of their friend grabbed hold.

Wuh de ma.....ASH!!”

“Ash?” Andrew asked over the communicator… he waited for a response… looking around the area… maybe he was thrown clear of the building… “Ash come in!”

Silence met their calls but then they were forced to take over again as ammo in the fire started to go off above like so many machine guns on auto-fire. There was nothing to be done but wait it out.

Then, as they were just about to get up as the bullets stopped exploding, they heard a voice call out, "HEY! Over here! I got a man down and I can't move these beams!"

Frisco, Day Nine 11:10 pm Planet Time

Ash hear a sound below him as he moved to the lookout. It was the sound of a sigh, or someone letting out their last breath. He turned and look down at Winnie, expecting the worst, as her wounds were too much for her and she let out her last breath. But then something fell out of her hand.

Oh Gorram!!!!"

Ash ran at full speed up the stairs of the lookout and dove over the side, rolling over the ledge and down the newly shingled roof.

*BOOOMMMMM*

The explosion roared in Asher's head and the fire licked at his backside. Somewhere instinct took over as he tumbled/was thrown but the force of the blast and he tucked up and rolled. He hit the edge of the roof with a hard thump that drive the wind out from him and them crashed to the ground again, his clothing smouldering.

Then the debris from the roof fell on him.

As ash lay there, still alive but pinned under the wood and beams of the rooftop, he wondered what the heck happened. The grenade would have been a localized blast. So unless Winnie had wired the entire second floor.... No. There were sounds above, of rounds of ammo going off in the fire. The Sheriff must have store a ton of ammo under the bed. After some time, the gunfire subsided.

"Asher! You there! You better be alive young man or else I may be powerfully upset at you ruining the work I put into saving you. Ain't too respectful to get yoruself killed before all the stitching heals." It was Doc McGuire's voice, followed by the sounds of someone moving debris. "HEY! Over here! I got a man down and I can't move these beams!" the Doc shouted.

Looking for group never grabbed me. I read it when it started for about a yeah and it was mostly Sohmer being self-indulgent in my books. I didn't like Gutters for same reason.

Subject: Webcomics


I am a big fan of webcomics and I thought I would start a thread of sharing a favourites ones. Of course I love Loaded Dice and I write RPG Mythbreakers (and another that is coming soon).

Recently I discovered Weregeek which is another webcomic about a rpg group and their characters. I highly recommend it.

Also, a link from the four web-adverts above lead me to Fey Winds which is a good story about an adventuring group of complete misfits.

Other faves I follow:
Gloomies
Girl Genius
LICD
Evil Comics

So please share any you might have.

Subject: nerd coming down


“Well those need closed, at least at the deep end. “Doc said, “ Open these and thread that needle with the silk. Corbin, you pinch the end shut and I’ll sew it closed, but first shake a little sulfur in the hole before you pinch it.”

As Brutal tried the several time to hit the needles eye Greta came over, “You men are so good with shooting, but leave the fine work to me.” She took the silk and needle and in smooth deft motion she threaded, drew and knotted the silk. As Doc reached for the needle Greta glared down at him,” You lay still, I’ve sewn a person before, I had brothers that couldn’t seem to keep from falling out Grandfather’s trees.” Pushing Doc’s hand away Greta leaned in and blocked Jack view in a way that was highly distracting to the Doctor. Greta was a beautiful woman and it had been awhile. “I’ll have to put two in each; I’ll be as quick as I can. But first I am going to pour a bit of this on the wound." She says producing a small plastic bottle from her purse If you feel nothing, that will be good. If it hurts, you must tell me.”

(Assuming a "what is that" or "wait a minute")

Greta squirted the water into the wound and waited for a reaction. The Doc didn't flinch and then shook his head. She nodded, "Holy water. that was all. If it was still alive it might have burned, but we'd know that you had to have the pieces removed."

With the same deft motion she used to thread the needle and drawing the silk tight, pulling the gashed meat together. Greta let out the breath she didn’t realize she was holding. “There, that should hold them. If you have any disinfectant you need to clean it over those before you cover them.”


Jack pulled out a silver flask. Closest I got to disinfectant.”, he gasped. Jack held the flask out to Greta, and she took the flask and applied it liberally, “Now bandage him up, you may need him later” she said as she got up and re-shouldered her rifle.

The gargoyles had died like living creatures but what was left of their bodies and returned to the stone they had once been.

“Your orders, sir?” Romo asked

“We’ll get the Doc inside. Place him in one of the chairs while we search the room for useful materials. He needs all the rest we can give him right now. God, those wounds were deep.” Luke replied looking grim. The mission was getting stranger by the minute.

“Yes Sir, McGuinness wait 5 minutes then help Reid into the room, Clements with me, let's check it out.”

With Brutal behind him in a covering position Romo led the way back into the gargoyle room, Thompson at the ready. Upon entry, you see that things were pretty much as you left them except for the stone debris which is all over the room. No more gargoyles looking down upon you and the castle is now quiet as a grave. The two dead german soldier were torn apart, most likely by the gargoyles. They have two mags for Schmessier each but there weapons are damaged and bent by claws and talons and are completely spent. They also have two grenades each - Model 24 Stielhandgranates or potato mashers.

Once the entire unit is in the room you put the doctor down on a chair and give him some time to recover. The bandages are red, but holding well and he seems to be moving a lot better than before as the pain meds kick in.

Greta goes over to where she dropped her lighter and picksit up, pulls off the siilver case and removes a small cylinder from the lighter to replace it with another from her purse, and then replaces the cover and puts it back into her bag. "I wouldn't want to lose that." she says to no one in particular, "it was a gift from my late husband."

In the room beside this entry hall (#9), darkness hangs over as no electric lights have been strung. To the east is a set of double doors that are slightly ajar. To the east, a single arched corridor is lit by light from the circular stairwell some twenty feet down. Standing beside the archway to these stairs is a suit of plate armour in a shallow alcove, darkness shrouds its helm and faceplate.

Suddenly, there is a clatter of steps from the large stairway to the north, and the team reacts with weapons at ready towards the steps. A lone man, balding middle age, very thin with a white lab coat, stained with blood and dirt comes running down the stairs. He sees you and screams, quite girlishly and then raises his hands in the air.

"Nicht schießen! Ich bin unbewaffnet." Do not shoot! I am unarmed! he shouts and then screams again as he loses his footing and tumbles down the stairs to the floor below in a cacophony of screams and thuds. He lies at the bottom, moaning in some pain.
