I'll have it up by tommorrow night as I plan to start watching the Olympics at 3am Saturday morning with Women's Soccer. The American team has already 1 win in a 4-2 victory over France on Tuesday morning. Olympic Soccer starts early to be able to get the full tourny in.

As for you Eol I got only one thing to say to your teasing of my naughty intentions


GO TEAM USA!!

You know while I was writing my post tonight I had a thought. Seeing as how Eol is returning to the game should he not be the one to write Sam's goodbye.

I had thought to include a conversation in my post dealing with Sam's leaving but got to thinking somehow having Eol write it seemed fitting. Afterall he was the one and true Sam so should he not be the one to say goodbye.

Maybe it's just that I've been thinking of YeOlde alot and how he left the Inn, with at least a last note of goodbye, because September's coming soon and it will be 1 year already

~sigh~

Just a thought................

Robert has already contributed to the farewell post. I miss Yeolde as well and think about him every time I post to the game. One of the reason I had "him" arrest Brigit at the end of the last scene.

Yup... Sam's farewell is in the chute... I reckon it'll be coming in Al's wrap-up.

Nice technicolor post for Wolf, there, Rainbow Brite! Captured the "in and out/here and there" of recovery quite nicely, if'n I might say so. *nods*

And, wow... is it coming up on a year, already? Sometimes that all just seems like yesterday.

Well add 2 points to Covert, 2 to Pistols and 2 to Survival.

As gunslinger what would it take to add Lighten Reflexes as an asset? He's young and strong so reflexes should be good.

If you want to change me all 6 of my points for Lightnin Reflex then I'll do that instead of adding the 2 by 2s.

I am building Asher from what I was given so if I changed things it wouldn't be the same. I see things as the Kid stands taller in the middle of an encounter than during daily events. So we'll see hoiw that works out during that next adventure.

I am giving you a one time chance to change aspects of your character including complications. I am doing this because some are using characters they did not create. So if you want to redo the assets and complications, you may.

Now having played more in your game and seeing what kind of trouble Ash gets into I'll do a little tweeking. The Kid is in my head more now, but I may adjust a little to make him more of an assest to the team.

Add 2 to Maintenance
Add 2 to Repair
Add 2 to Guns

...but whatever happened to that kitten that Kora and Ma found in the engine room back near the beginning of this run? I've been looking but am either missing or overlooking the post regarding kitty's fate.

Not that it matters a whole lot... just curious,I suppose.

The kitty plot line was one that I was working on a long time ago and I have lost the thread in my mind, and it was linked to Kora and the Sterling Phoenix who was Sam's enemy, so we consider the kitty written out.

Another plot line was the Ludlows (the assasin on the asteroid and the leader in the bank job) and the their father who is a commander in the Alliance Military. That will take a back seat for now but won't be forgotten.

Tann - you have 6 points in guns which is a general and that is the max. You would put your two into a specialization like pistol or shotgun etc etc. I would highly recommend taking a less "restricted" weapon speciality like pistol or shotgun. Machine guns are not openly accepted on most planets and other than the rim, you are asking for trouble.

Now Reavers. You ought to meet some reavers soon.

Ok Glad you brought that up as I’ve been wondering about that a few times. The Beretta 93r which the 97r in your game is based on I believe is not a machine gun. It’s a Automatic pistol for single shot fire or in controlled bursts of three rounds, The Beretta pistol Model 93r is derived from the Model 92. It is not just a semi automatic pistol, nor a sub machinegun. Designed expressly for special purpose deployment, it offers enormous fire power coupled with the faculty of firing single shots in semi automatic repetition as well as three shot bursts, at the shooter's choice. It is not fully automatic like a Sub or full size Machine Gun. Moreover, it can be carried on the person like any hand gun, even holstered or concealed.

So I would think that my proficiency in machine guns should actually be in pistols. However as I’m still unsure of the mechanics of the Firefly game and how guns are designated I never thought to ask and only present it now as you brought it up.

So you say we can tweak ok why not this, put the d10 into pistols instead of Machine Gun to cover the 97r’s, add 2 points there. Next add 2 points to repair then if possible the next 2 points to gain Mechanical Empathy (minor) .

You say we can have up to 5 complications ok as I have only 3 could I add Loyal (minor)(After all Wyatt and Asher did for him I think he'd be damn near loyal to them and them only) and Straight Shooter (minor)( Goes along with Chip on Shoulder as he's not a very good liar and he will tell it like it is very bluntly) to gain another 4 points as those two complications are me to a T on some things and I think I could play them quite well . If you tell me yes on the added 2 complications at that point I’ll spend them.

Let me know.............

Loved the post Roger and I have to be honest Sam's letter had me teary eyed but I was able not to shed one.

Did Eol write that??

Again good post, can't wait for the next chapter in this tale

Sorry to barge in on a game in which I am not a part; but I wanted to say Bravo to all the players and the Master of the game.

I have back read alot of this game, enough to cover what has been going on lately and eagerly awaited each new post to see the outcome.

I am sorry to see this adventure end, but I hope there will another to come which I will look forward to reading when it is posted.

Keep up the good work all of you!

Yes Robert wrote the letter in my post. Thank you for such a great piece to put into my closing post.

Tann - I see what you mean about the guns although I did have to look it up and read a bit on them. I'm Canadian and don''
t know much on guns. Our most cherished right is to bear breasts ( I kid you not)

I am all for changing skills, assets, and complications to better suit the character you are playing. so take advantage of the one time offer. I know Willow will be switchin gsome of her's too.

No intrusion at all Teller. Nice to know people are enjoying this series. It will continue with the next adventure, once new crew are on board.

Ok Roger decided to take you up on your one time offer and go deeper with Wolf.

Ok I decided to improve the skills he already had instead of choosing different ones, so I added more specializations.

Ok first I removed Covert as I don’t think Wolf being as big as he is ever gonna be that so that gave me 6 points. Added to that the 6 points for this Adventure and the 4 for the added Complications I now had a total of 16 points and used them as follows.

Skills:
Athletics d6
*Dodge d8 (+2)
*Weight-Lifting d8
Mechanical Engineering d6
*Maintenance d10
*Repair d10 (upgraded to d12 +2)
*Rewire and Reroute Electrical d8 (+2)
Planetary Vehicles d6
*Ground Vehicle Repair d8 (+2)
Guns d6
*Pistol d10 (upgraded to d12 +2)
Melee Weapon Combat d6
*Knives d8 (upgraded to d10 +2)
Unarmed Combat d6
*Brawling d10
*Martial Arts d8 (+2)
(Note not sure how the rules go again in determining this, but I would think that both unarmed Combat specializations would over lap as they do in Mixed Martial Arts)

Asset (+2)
Mechanical Empathy (minor) – Having finally accepted the Rocinante as home he is more intune with her, feels her in a better way, and loves her as more then just a ship.

Complications (To be added to existing ones)
Loyal (minor)- After the events on Regina and the way Asher and Wyatt treated him and rushed to get him help, having never had those type of friends other then Sam. He is now 100% loyal to them, the rest of the crew, and the ship herself which he now considers home.
Straight Shooter (minor)- Due to the Chip on his Shoulder and never having learned how to hide his emotions very well, he is easy to read because of said emotions. As such he is a bad liar and can be very blunt at times. Holds to the belief that he would rather hurt a person with the truth, then with a lie.

I hope I did this correctly if I made a mistake please correct
