OOC Thread here.

First post! I win!

 

[Rykon]

Aw, ya beat me. I've still got a full day in the office too.

 

[Sherwood]

Ok, here are my attribute rolls.

Can we reroll '1s'? I have several rolls that would benefit from that.

What the hell. Go ahead.

 

[Rykon]

Guess I'll give mine a shot.

Phone already got me on one of the rolls. Set it to d4s.

 

[Sherwood]

Much better! I even got a 28 out of all that now!

 

[Psychie]

Looking good so far.

 

[Rykon]

Nice, not quite so lucky here, but I guess it could be worse.

 

[Sherwood]

You got at least one in the mid 20's. That can't hurt. I'm thinking of going with the GMP for my character, making me the intel specialist of the team.

 

[Rykon]

Sounds good. I'll probably stick to the standard pilot kit to keep it simple this time around, but I've still got reading to do after work to figure out the details.

 

[Sherwood]

I get another 1d6 for Speed.

 

[Sherwood]

Hit points and SDC rolls.

 

[D. Rex]

Hopefully I do this right!

8x 4d6 rolls. Reroll 1s. If total of that grouping is above 18, add a 1d6 bonus roll. If that bonus roll is a 6, then add another 1d6.

Pick the top seven to divvy out as your attribute points. With one attribute an auto 30.

 

[D. Rex]

Lol what absolute horrible rolls. Is it too late to sacrifice that goat?

 

[Sherwood]

Hell, I only had one good roll out of my batch. At least we all start out with a natural 30 in one attribute to knock out our lowest roll.

 

[D. Rex]

Indeed. That will certainly be a big help. Though it may give me some fun hurdles to get around. For example, like trying to be more skill focused than attribute focused in terms of job.

Which reminds me. What are the available O.C.Cs?

 

[D. Rex]

I think I found them in one of the source books Sherwood gave me.

And are we for sure building our team around being tank operators?

 

[Rykon]

That is my understanding, so I'm assuming yes.

 

[D. Rex]

Cool beans. That gives me a few options I can work with in making an outline of my char.

I think I will probably go with the ATAC.

But the M.O.S will determine a lot about my char.... and I'm thinking between two.

Could go Heavy weapons/demolitions, high attributes are a window dressing when you can you hit your target if you only throw enough firepower at it :p

Another fun idea I'm highly considering is a Mecha Engineer, taking a more repairman type roll. Which could be pretty handy when we are getting beaten down by the invid. And I can use the joke "He ATAC, but he also protecc."

To confirm your question, yes, you are all tankers. Sherwood has said that he's going with a member of the Global Military Police for his character. That's fine, so long as you remember that other OCCs don't come with Pilot Ground Veritechs and MECT Hover Tank as a standard skill and you have to use one of your Secondary skills for that.

 

[Sherwood]

Ok, I have a character posted. I just need to know what rank we are starting out as.

 

[Psychie]

Put your rank as a corporal at the moment. It might change.

 

[Sherwood]

You got it.

 

[Psychie]

Sherwood A quick run-through of your sheet and it looks good. Looking forward to seeing what D. Rex and Rykon come up with! I will have an NPC assigned to the team that might end up being the squad leader for you. Just depends on what everyone makes up.
