Heroica: Glory Amongst The Stars - General Discussion

[Kintobor]

Probably not synthwave, but I've been meaning to use this song in a club setting for awhile now.

Oquim is a gas giant. Hitting the ground after falling off the train is the least of your worries.

@karmajay Grenades require a minimum Explosives Proficiency to use based on their attributes.  The Grenades you currently possess require an Explosives Proficiency of 1, as that is the highest requirement associated with any of their attributes.

I feel like I should say something, I feel a little steam has been let out of my sails. If you haven't heard a lot from me recently  that might be why. And some how I seem to use up a lot of my online data for this month. Plus having over a week left until it reset, I think I am going to try and not be online as much. Not to mention it seems to be a little slow around here anyways (that might not help either).

No need to worry/apologise - This pandemic is incredibly draining (See my posting habits! 😬)! 
BTW, regarding mobile data usage: If you can, toggle the data off when you are not actively using your phone. This will keep your phone from using up data as apps background-refresh themselves. 
I hope that this helps. 😕

Don't feel bad, it happens all the time.

@Classic_Spaceman

Right, gonna just say this now: C_S, your plan worked once and was arguably necessary then, but right now it's statistically better to simply attack (Kintobor's plan will almost certainly either kill him this round or set him up to die in the next unless he gets absurdly lucky, whereas going for the barrel is an all-or-nothing attempt that won't do anything if it fails). You got your cool moment earlier, and I think WBD and your fellow players would appreciate it if you stopped slowing down every other round by starting a big discussion over tactics after everyone has been forced to forge on without you thanks to your self-admittedly poor schedule.

@Waterbrick Down

I just noticed in the FAQ about how much fluff one ought to read, the bit about artificial life still says 'in the same thread' even though a bit about the Embassy has been inserted before it. I think it should be changed to 'in the Library' to prevent confusion.

Yelana looked Zaria up and down. 
"Uh. . . Is there, like, something going on here? I feel like I'm missing something." 
 

You literally tried to steal the bottle opener in front of Zaria.

I know - Yelana is just a bit sarcastic! Also, she is still trying to flirt with Zaria (the overall scene is rather sexually-charged, with Yelana crouched on the ground and Zaria standing over her with her sword out!). 😈

I tried getting the update for Mission 4 up last night but the site went down as I was posting it. Sorry for the delay, I hope you're ready for a wild ride!

[Zepher]

Hell. Yea.

@Kintobor
Chase rules question: Can PCs jump/walk (depending upon the distance) from one speeder to another, and, if so, what happens when a PC defeats an enemy (I.E. does the speeder fall out of the air, does the player need to make a Piloting check?)?

As written, I'd say not now. I want to ensure this works as written before getting more complicated. I think that answer also answers the second question.

OK - That makes sense. 👍

A preview for the music accompanying this fight. It should be apparent, but I'm a sucker for big band jazz, swing, and early rock and roll, and this mission was partially an excuse to just have the music I love as the soundtrack to a mission. 

[Peppermint_M]

Oof, two B characters so close got me confused! I hope that correction is posted OK.

You’re good, yep I realized their pics are super similar after cropping. Sorry.

[Peppermint_M]

No worries, I should have looked more closely while I posted, there are enough differences.

[Waterbrick Down]

Suffice it to say, I will have much to talk about after mission 1.

Should I be worried? 😬

[Waterbrick Down]

Ya’ll should be. Might have to create a new rule because of you three.

😬😬😬

What kind of rule? 
 

[Waterbrick Down]

Private actions and inter party conflict.
