Duncan does have a point, which is why I'm holding off of starting the campaign until January. Gives me more time to plan out the game.

Outstanding! The game itself will be starting on January First. This will be a stand-up fight!

Rascal
Marcus

Also, Pitt posted in the off-topic section recently, so I presume he's still around.

Hi Quinn

Any way I can get into this Campaign?

I've got my old profile back and hell, you can even strip me of rank if you want.

Keen to get back in the thick of it.

I've never heard of you Rednus, which probably means you qualify to have an old-man cane and beat us with it while shouting to get off your lawn.

As to rank, I'm really hoping that Dugan gets his ass back here to be the command sergeant. The LT will be an NPC (and he will have a head on his shoulders), and everyone else will be a PC. Pilots will be NPCs, as I'm not sure that anyone has actually built a pilot.

My character "Sixtus" will be, storyline-wise, rotated back to Earth to train some snot-noses how to be proper medics.

I'd happily take on either Officer or Pilot roles, Quinn. Dunny has full qualifications in both - his backstory has him as being an aerospace officer prior to being knocked outta the sky, raped by bugs and rescued by the marines...and his stats reflect this. Lots of leadership and three points in Dropship Piloting.

;D I like to be flexible...ram straight into any job openings.

Heh heh heh.

I'm going to continue the tradition of the Officer being an NPC, for those GM to Player Character hints that are sometimes needed.

Rednus, you are entirely welcome to join the game. I'll take a look around to see if your character sheet survived or not.

And if you guys want to make up a pilot, you are welcome to do so, but not a lot happens on the pilot end, mostly just providing fire support for the Marine team on the ground. If you have your heart set on being the group pilot, then by all means, go right ahead. However, your callsign will be left up to me. >:D

Sweet, thankyou Quinn.

I spoke to Nick, he hasn't got characters from that long ago stored.

All good though, I'll happily re-write my character and upload it asap.

Again, thx Quinn, and I look forward to getting to know everyone else soon. ;D

Actually...

I sifted through some really old backups and found Rednus. Be aware we used a different system back then so you still need to make the number-crunching again.

Enjoy... ;D

A gun freak at heart, Rednus sought out the marines as a natural calling in life, free weapons and training was ideal, and he took to it well. Raised by his father in in a low economic society, his first taste of combat was at the age of 17 when he witnessed forces of the USCM end a twelve hour hostage crisis near his home in seconds...

A child had a new role model , and a parent wasnt pleased. Then a long progressed heart condition took Rednus' father from him, there was nothing to keep him here..wasting.

When asked why he signed up, he replied; "There's just somethin' 'bout the sound of heavy weapons fire that reminds me of home...". Indeed.
