Re: OOC: "Return to Coruscant"
To see what you may recall about Coruscant and Undersector 571 (location of Cantina 571), each may make a Knowledge: Underworld check to determine what you may know going in.
AVG + Boost + Setback die.
The Boost die for being 'from' there (in the not-too-distant past, anyways).
The Setback die for unfamiliar developments since you were last there. Remember, it has been about two years since you've been there. The pre-prison adventure was a flashback.

Re: OOC: "Return to Coruscant"
A little refresher...
Anjali had escaped as exploitation and used her considerable technical skill and abilities to land a job working with the Coruscant Security Forces (Republic Army, basically).
Motivation: Righteousness – (Str) Injustice, (Weak) Cold-heartedness
Sai "BA" was friends with Boss and Monty. He asked questions about their arrest and was thrown in with them for his bad attitude. Steadfastly against the Sith, but no friend of the Jedi, either.
Motivation? Strength? Weakness? TBD.
Alamy (AAA) was an investigative reporter who was tipped off to a secret job going down and tracked Helios to the group. She was caught up in the false accusations against A-Squad. Guilt by association.
Motivation: Injustice/Corruption – (Str) Justice, (Weak) Cruelty
Monty Peppard led a police squad called A-Squad on Coruscant. His group was framed for robbing the First Bank of Coruscant during the Sith attack.
Motivation? Strength? Weakness? TBD.

Re: OOC: "Return to Coruscant"
What's the context of the roll? If we know we're supposed to meet a contact in Undersector 571, might it make sense that we'd put our heads together for a combined roll? I think that would be , based on Anjali's Intellect, boosts from at least 2 of us, the boost you mentioned, and the removal of a Setback due to Alamy's Street Smarts talent.DeepSpacer wrote: ↑Sat Apr 06, 2019 1:51 amTo see what you may recall about Coruscant and Undersector 571 (location of Cantina 571), each may make a Knowledge: Underworld check to determine what you may know going in.

Re: OOC: "Return to Coruscant"
This time, I'd actually prefer that each of you roll separately because it may determine which one of you remembers what, as well as what current events you know about and where you think might be best to start asking around. We have some soldier, detective, scholar possibilities built into our backgrounds and I hope to connect some of it. The adventure is fluid, so any particular person could recall helpful information (or not!). I like to let the dice "fall where they may."SavageBob wrote: ↑Mon Apr 08, 2019 2:10 pmWhat's the context of the roll?

Not a 'contact', per say, just what you know about what's gone on the last two years since we've been on the run. It may have been street-talk, a fellow prison inmate, Holonet News, biased propaganda, out-dated info, cantina chatter, rumors, etc... Needless to say, the Sith attack left things in shambles and Underworld activity has flourished. By whom and in what way? We need to see what you have heard.

Monty Peppard's roll...
Monty Peppard; A-Squad; Underworld Knowledge:
1 Failure, 1 Advantage
1 Adv: a non-pertinent tidbit of info
Monty's been out of the loop too long to have heard what's going on.

Re: OOC: "Return to Coruscant"
Is there no longer a follow thread option?
Give me about 5 minutes after a post, I'll probably edit it a bit before it is finalized.
Re: OOC: "Return to Coruscant"
(Sorry for the delay -- I had a narrow posting window the last couple days, and the site seemed to be down during that time.)
Alamy gets to ignore the setback (Streetsmarts), but, alas, she is also in the dark save for a tidbit of related information.
AAA; Alpha Squad; Knowledge (Underworld):
1 Failure, 1 Advantage
AAA; Alpha Squad; Knowledge (Underworld) (correction):
0 Success, 0 Advantage

not sure. Do you mean seeing it in unread posts or receiving an email notification?

Re: OOC: "Return to Coruscant"
Usually there is a little option on that wrench icon to follow topic, I thought, but I don't see it anymore and I wanted to follow this thread to get alerts when new posts happen.

Re: OOC: "Return to Coruscant"
@Doctor Who @Flamiel
An AVG+SB+B () Knowledge: Underworld check awaits for BA & Anjali to make. A success or Adv may cater the thread towards that particular character when it comes to Underworld contacts on Coruscant.
@SavageBob
In addition, each character can subtract 850 credits from their total for transportation and the credits needed to get through customs with certain restricted gear and armament. At a tabletop, maybe we play that all out (Charm, Deception, Skulduggery, Core Worlds, Coercion, Negotiation rolls, etc...), but on PBP its better to skip it for the sake of time, IMO.

Re: OOC: "Return to Coruscant"
So I guess there's no way anymore to watch this thread to get alerts when someone posts?
BA fails, as expected of him when a non-combat skill is involved
BA; ASquad; Underworld:
2 Failures, 1 Advantage

By 'alerts' you mean get an email....no. (I saw the Republic Senate post). It used to be an option to get an email when a post was made.Doctor Who wrote: ↑Sun Apr 14, 2019 1:24 pmSo I guess there's no way anymore to watch this thread to get alerts when someone posts?
By 'notifications' at the top of the screen in the bar (Quick Links....FAQ's.......Notifications....Private Messages....)...yes. As was said in the other post. "Bookmark Topic".

Re: OOC: "Return to Coruscant"
Save for Flamiel (Anjali), we may be 'in-the-dark' when it comes to the developments in the Coruscant underworld. That's okay. Makes it more adventurous!Doctor Who wrote: ↑Sun Apr 14, 2019 1:24 pmBA fails, as expected of him when a non-combat skill is involved

I think the Nikto were supposed to give us some sort of special herbs or something for helping them in lieu of payment. Did that happen?

Re: OOC: "Return to Coruscant"
Mike {LIFE} just got busy for many of us lately!
I seem to remember something about special herbs. I suppose you can be creative with what they may have given you. I'm open to pretty much anything.

Re: OOC: "Return to Coruscant"
Perhaps something that could be crafted into a special stim that removes a crit (or maybe just reduces the difficulty by one). But lookout, take more than 1 in a session and you get addicted (if it just reduces the difficulty, then I'd say roll and only get addicted on a despair).DeepSpacer wrote: ↑Tue Apr 16, 2019 6:19 pmMike just got busy for many of us lately!

I like the pharmaceutical idea, even if we're just trying to offload the cargo to some corp and get a few samples.
And finally someone with some knowledge!

Re: OOC: "Return to Coruscant"
Looks like a winner to me. I am not big on 'crafting', so we can hand-wave it into existence. I could go with extra-potency, too. Maybe +2 Wounds healed? I like randomness to such rolls. Maybe roll 2d4 to see how many of such stims you can make with the herbs?Flamiel wrote: ↑Wed Apr 17, 2019 2:45 amPerhaps something that could be crafted into a special stim that removes a crit (or maybe just reduces the difficulty by one).

Re: OOC: "Return to Coruscant"
I was going to have AAA respond, but I can't find why it was we had come to Coruscant and were trying to get to Undersector 571. What's drawn us here, DS?

Re: OOC: "Return to Coruscant"
No problem. I know that the PBP lapsed for a bit and then I jumped from Greckel to here to help kickstart things rather than bog down in details with wrapping it up on Lannik. Greckel's last comments were about General Fentz (since we asked). Apparently, he has some duty on Coruscant and likes to frequent a Cantina 571. Presumably in undersector 571.

Re: OOC: "Return to Coruscant"
Great roll! Give me a little time. Car transmission went out today IRL. Got tow home after 9pm. I have a second, similar car, so I have transportation. Gotta transition for a day. Miss day of work tomorrow. Figure things out. Junk the first car. Change insurance. Go to DMV, turn in plates. Etc...
