Dice Robotech - The Invid War - OOC Thread

[MrSaturnUL]

Yeah, I'm still here.

 

[Silanon]

Well - that's a lot of stuff you wrote over night - for me, that is. Maybe just a remark for those who don't know me yet: I'm sitting in Europe, so time-zones are a thing for me; don't expect rapid responses most of the time, once the rp has started.

 

[Orikanyo]

suprise i'm here.

 

[Rykon]

Sorry I'm taking so long. People at work from another department are getting on my last nerve. It's occupied a lot of brain space and consumed more creative energy than normal.

My current impression is that we're turning into an all Marine unit, yes? Or are some of us still committed to being Navy? Based on what I'm hearing about the desired path of the story I should be leaning toward a more straight forward combatant. I've been hesitant with that since I believe Alan from the ASC game fills that role far better than another character I can conjure at the moment.

If there's a support, or even leadership, role I could fill to round out the team or provide greater entertainment, I'm all ears.

 

[D. Rex]

Unfortunately I dont quite have enough knowledge of the plan or setting to be able to make more precise ideas.

Let's run down what we got.

Me and Sherwood are both marines. Him a prime combatant, and me a field focused science officer. If only these two were marines, it could be easily reasoned as a scientist and escort, for the sake of speculation.

Silanon is navy, and a prime combat with recon.

Saturn, like me, seems to be going towards support. In their case, that of a comms officer.


Starship command or leadership we are still unsure of, unless Psychie chimed in without me paying attention(which I am quilty of often)

What I do know is she required to pilot an alpha or beta. As well mentioned this being a straight forward war story.


Anithe point of contention is how the fighters are arranged in terms of models. If everybody wants alphas, with any betas going to NPCs. Or if we want players to have betas to double up with another players alpha. Until that is decided I am in the fence about flying and alpha or beta.



Though, an easy idea for you, might be a field medic. Yet Alan would also do pretty well here. Another prime combatant would also be pretty useful given what we are going uo against.

 

[Sherwood]

Rykon If you want to take the reins of this team, I'm good with that. My only wonder is what mecha everyone is going to pilot, just like D. Rex said. Are we going to go all Alphas, or are some of us taking Beta fighters? I'm currently a Alpha pilot, but I'm not locked on that idea, and can change to a Beta and be the engines of a fast pair of Veritechs.

 

[Psychie]

Rykon If you are looking for a Command role, perhaps a Military Specialist? There does not appear to be anyone taking that OCC yet. It is, of course, up to you. I will say that if a ship command role ever opens up, it will be in the distant future, and not anytime soon.

 

[Psychie]

On another note, D. Rex you have some polishing to do on your character, including choosing a Natural Aptitude bonus. Also, make sure you update your Martial Arts description so you don't have the start of HtH Commando listed on your sheet with your Jeet Kun Do.

I will also say that for your first posting, you will be a part of the air crew of a Garfish class transport. Later on down the road, you'll be able to transfer to a larger ship.

 

[Orikanyo]

Hmm.. sadly I already had a pretty successful field medic once before in a game Sherwood gmed.

I think i can go a beta flier nonetheless

 

[Psychie]

So, we have:

Sherwood with an Alpha, but can switch if needed
Orikanyo with a Beta
D. Rex with an Beta
Rykon
Silanon with an Alpha
MrSaturnUL

As it stands right now.

 

[Sherwood]

Orikanyo, besides going for a Beta, any ideas on what OCC you'd like to take?

 

[D. Rex]

I chose Jack of all trades as the aptitude. I'll write it in.

This way I could get the recon pilot MOS, and use the OOC related skills for HtH and a cyclone mect.


Oops! I missed that little bit of commando. I'll see that it is removed.


Was going to wait to decide in Alpha or Beta depending on how the squad wants to fly. Alpha was in the CS because it was what she flew before.


Also was going to wait on judgement of the W.P. inquiry before filling out those.



I think I otherwise got my skills sorted out. As well as attributes.

Lol and funnily enough I got more HP than the tough guys, but half the SDC.

 

[Sherwood]

Yeah, you have lots of hit points. I'll still kick your butt!

 

[D. Rex]

Yeah, you have lots of hit points. I'll still kick your butt!

You wouldn't hit a girl with glasses would you?

 

[Psychie]

Also was going to wait on judgement of the W.P. inquiry before filling out those.

I am going to go ahead and have all WPs go by the book.

 

[D. Rex]

I am going to go ahead and have all WPs go by the book.

Aye aye boss!

 

[Psychie]

You wouldn't hit a girl with glasses would you?

He's not hitting you in the face; that's why he's going to kick your butt!

 

[Sherwood]

Bad joke, there, Psy. I love it.

 

[D. Rex]

He's not hitting you in the face; that's why he's going to kick your butt!

B-but that is inappropriate!

 

[Sherwood]

Would you rather a sound spanking?

 

[D. Rex]

Bad joke, there, Psy. I love it.

She is learning our ways. She will be converted yet.

 

[Psychie]

Oh, dear.

 

[D. Rex]

Would you rather a sound spanking?

You wouldnt dare!

 

[Sherwood]

 

[D. Rex]

The only acceptable response.
