Re: Time to pass the torch
Okay; well unless Nick has any objections; I've got a mission idea and I will start to run the game quite soon; using Nick's patented once a week main post; and with subsequent posts here and there as necessary. Basic outline for where to start: It's several months after the events of "Hell on Earth...

Re: Time to pass the torch
I appreciate the appreciation! Thanks guys! :) Quinn: By all means, please send me any and all ideas and thoughts you may have! Nick: I learned a long time ago that everyone's brains are wired very differently....for example, I knew a guy in high school who was a math wiz; ended up getting a 780 (ou...

Re: Time to pass the torch
To: Nick, Pants, Dugan, Quinn...and any other veterans out there! :) I sent a PM to Nick and basically, I'll just repeat it here: If any of you (particularly Nick for this part) have any feelings one way or the other about where to go with the current mission; i.e., if Nick has a "blue-print" for it...

Re: Time to pass the torch
Nick? Dugan? Any of you other veterans?
I've got a few ideas...and I can go ahead and start posting and see what people think; but I certainly don't want to offend anyone and would really like to hear more people's opinions before I start doing the 'bull in a glass store' routine!

Re: Time to pass the torch
Well first off, I wanted to say "Congratulations Nick!"; followed immediately by, "Damn! This mission was just starting to get really interesting!" :) I have quite a bit of experience GMing over the years and could probably find the time to run a PBP; but I have to say; even though I went out and go...

Re: M1T9 - Eyes on
Hearing Pitt's order, Sam acknowledge with a brief; "Aye, aye", and continued in her assigned zone, sweeping the murky ocean with her Pulse Rifle out in front of her.
Great....f-ing Corporates are here...this mission just keeps getting better and better, Hall thought bitterly to herself.

Re: M1T8 - Contact
As Sam heard the reports of the large blip move closer and closer and then move off; she immediately thought of a sub dropping off people to the habitat. A minute later, her thoughts were echoed by SGT Simovic's voice. As Simovic and Pitt directed 3rd squad to the right flank, Hall sent a quick, "Ay...

Re: M1T7 - Under pressure
Sam sent a terse, "Aye, aye"; in response to SGT Simovic's order; and disengaged her boosters and felt herself sink into the silt. Her heart began hammering as she shifted her hand to be in position to fire the grenade launcher built into her Pulse Rifle. Glancing over at the rest of her squad, she ...

Re: M1T6 - Touchdown
Sam took in the sights all around her with a continued sense of both wonder and apprehension. She stayed alert and checked all around her squad's position and above them for any signs of anything unusual. Flanking SGT Pitt on his right, she called out on the comm; "Hall here Sarge, no signs of any o...

Re: M1T5 - Descent to darkness
Samantha just listened to the chatter all around her and shook her head while thinking; Men....no matter where you go, they turn EVERYTHING into a joke....I wish I could do that... . Her wistfull thoughts only lasted a few seconds before the anxiety of the situation kicked back in and she went back ...

Re: M1T5 - Descent to darkness
Samantha felt a strange combination of wonder and fear at the utter strangeness of the deep ocean....she imagined it was very much like being the first group of people on a strange new world. Snapping out of it with the Comms Check; Sam made sure her suit and weapon were in good working order and sa...

Re: Character applications finally finished!
Okay; I've uploaded Sam Hall's stats. I have a couple of questions about the roster though... 1. Is everyone listed on it still here....as in....are they NPCs (if the players have moved on for example?) 2. Partly why I'm asking is because the Support Squad that my character is in is composed of only...

Re: M1T4 - Clammed up
Sam was not happy being "loaded" into the diving suit and then hooked up to the botom of the submarine as it made her feel like a piece of meat dangling on a hook. Hearing SGT Pitt echo her thoughts a moment later made her lip turn up in a grim grin. Making sure she could still somewhat move her arm...

Re: M1T2 - All aboard
Sam hopped out of the Dropship onto the carrier's deck and immediately took a deep breath of sea-air; a smile came to her face almost subconsciously; and she ignored the rain as she just took in the sight of the ocean. Growing up on an archipelago of islands on a mostly ocean colony world had made t...
