I will address that in the first post of the new topic for the adventure.

... which btw is forthcoming


Yeah! Let's get the ball rolling!

I also printed out the whole PDF and put it in a binder. :3

Great! Oh, and I wanna have great Powers in my character. If Jamyl can read minds, I want psychic powers as well! :P

We can keep this topic going as a place to ask rules related questions but you should all know that I have started the new thread for the adventure.

Sounds like a good idea, allowing us to separate OOC from IC easily and solve common doubts and issues that may arise. And maybe other forum users want to post ideas, or critics, or join, or whatever. :)

Just wondering, is this story something that happened in our characters past or is it like an alternate universe kind of thing?

I like to consider it something "recent", as if it had happened the day of the first post. How do you see it?

Well, if it happened "that day", in the past, then your character would be affected and have memories of the events that happend there, which is not completely the case (yet). Your character might behave differently now because of what happend there and then. And what if you die?

If I die, I suppose I'll have to recycle my biomass, just to be a harcore RPer. :P

Ok, I seriously wouldn't do that, that's just silly. XD

Seems like we lost it on the way. :S

As for the knowledge and such, for now my character will keep any references to those days to the minimum precisely because I don't know yet, but he'll probably react if I meet Astra or Telegram in space. And if there are inconsistencies with things that we hadn't posted by then, well I guess that's unavoidable.

About dying, if he does die I guess he would be awakened later on in a clone vat from a previous copy of himself, with all memories about these events lost. He'd have to investigate about it, which could be quite interesting.

Yeah I haven't heard from them since they finished their character? go figure?

Incidentally I am not able to post on the weekends easily.

I will put up a new post in the story as soon as I can.

How are you liking the story so far? I am always looking for constructive critique .

Don't worry, GM, take your time.

I like how you're finding ways to encourage us strangers to work together...even kudos to the other players getting a target lock on me, preventing me from cloaking. :P

Seed ship with the Rogue Drones is a nice twist...

Seph and Sam are jumping right in and using the mechanincs in their favor, where as I'm pretty much RPing my way through for the time being. I've yet to really sit and pour over the rule set, I have a good book dominating my reading time. :3

I'm liking it a lot. If I wasn't, I wouldn't be clicking on the "like" button, and I believe you are managing quite well to build the story and be clear on what is happening, where and how. As a constructive critic/doubt, how can we actually have just undocked and not know where we are? We should know the name of the system and all that unless our mind was damaged somehow, no?

Oh, and Astra, there's not much more to the game mechanics than what you've seen, actually: mostly all is rolling to do stuff, and placing Aspects and activating Aspects. FATE system is pretty clear and straightforward. :)

As far as time goes, don't worry, we all have a RL to attend to. :)

Hahahaha. But, who is the tin man? We clearly know who Dorothy is now, as there's only one girl, but both of us fly in tin ships, so... :? xDD
