   Actually, Ceres already suggested the armor plating some way back, in character.

   Here you go, then. All we need to find is an arc welder! Then we could blast through the front gates! :-)

   Well, we still do have some mining explosives.... We still could blast through the gates.

   I don't wanna wait anymore. Expect a post within a short period of time.
   
   Are you okay, Muro? You've been quiet lately.

   I'm fine, just busy with real life. Back as of tonight, for a week or so.

   Ok All, sorry for posting so late! I'm just glad to be back! Looking forward to what awaits us in bleak wood!

   Good to have you aboard again, dd!

   Whoa, Muro!
   
   Its going to take me a little bit to build up an answer to that! Awesome.  :D
   
   Let me get my thoughts in order, and expect a reply soon!

   You do it again Muro!

    Any way to get to good shootin' range of bo-bo without getting cut in half?
    
    

12. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    #92

    Bo-bo seems enraged and psychotically focused on Kiph. He is unlikely to see you approach and more than likely to cut KIPH in half if you don't intervene.

    I am currently a bit troubled by the slow posting rate of some of you.
    
    EchoMirage: You say you really want to continue the game, but you repeatedly fail to post. Still you are active in several other games. Is there something I am not getting here?
    Val: You have quieted down considerably from Episode 1 Part 1. Anything I can do to increase your rate of posting, seeing as how you also are very active in other games?
    
    Not angry, guys. Just wishing to get you either back on track or out of the game.

14. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    #94

    I am really active only in one other game, starkin is starting up.
    
    Up to this point in the narrative, there was little for Riv to directly react with - Kiph was scouting, I was waiting for something to shoot.  Now I have something to shoot.
    
    I am less comfortable then others with 'making' things happen outside of my own characters direct actions - something I still need to work on.
    
    
    
    
    
    

15. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    Fair enough val. I have chosen to run the game without a GM avatar, meaning I must use you guys for the narrative. If that causes some discomfort, I am truly sorry and will think about other ways of doing it in future games.

16. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    #96

    Yesterday, I fainted after posting into the other games. sorry. Was exhausted, went to bed at 9 PM.

17. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    #97

    Okay. Just let us keep the show on the road, okay?
    
    I am not demanding award winning performances, just that you show.
    
    Not that award winning performances are bad... No, they are great but not demanded.

18. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    #98

    Okay, I am out again.
    Man, one cannot even go to a metal concert and get boozed up on a friday without his PC getting moshed up.
    Sucks to be me I guess.

    Sorry bout that echo! Hope Ceres prefers to be knocked out than have her flesh eaten by a horde of monsters..... :P

    You stood close to the bang. Never healthy, or so I hear.
    
    Um, d_d, time for some aid perhaps?

21. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    #101

    Please, AG, roll my SAN and tell me whether I have succeeded.

22. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    #102

    I went with the flow of my post, but I'm afraid it might not be the best solution. Ho well, here goes nothing. (I reckon the nanites will work. It takes a while to die from exsanguination, and from the place the shrapnel hit, its the nanites or nothing)

    EchoMirage: SAN roll failed. (You rolled 72, and your SAN is 65)

24. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    #104

    I have no clue what Kiph can do to help right now. If anyone has any ideas, let me know!  :P

25. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    #105

    Well, you seem like a good target. That is enough for me.
    
    After d_d has posted, I'll follow suit.

26. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    #106

    Ok, my post will most likely mean death. If you find it in the kindness of your heart to let me live AG, that's most merciful, but you don't have to.
    
    (Brevil would like to see her die first, though)
    
    I can always make another character and meet the party in the near future.

27. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    #107

    Ceres is dead
    Brevil is dead
    Riv is dying
    Kiph is unconscious
    
    This went well :/
    
    dark_dragon: Your attack was a special success and would have killed the mutant, even let you survive.
    valadaar: Your fourth attack was a critical success (a natural 04), and just what you needed to detonate the ammo. If not for the explosion you and Kiph would surely have survived, though Brevil would probably have died.
    
    The combination of these two attacks proved to be overkill.
    
    On the upside, the mutant is dead, dead, dead. And dead.

    Oh. This was fun.

    Heh, not much party left for your future PC to meet DD!
    
    Maybe the guy who wants to kill Riv could make an appearance :P
    

30. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    Well, I'm going to have to make a combat optimised mercenary with no sense of duty (make that no emotions), and especially, (And that last one is important) no crazy mutant gattling-gun-wielding ex-girlfriends.

31. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    #111

    Damn, val, you must be a telepath. He is making an appearance right now!
    
    :p

32. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    #112

    For reference, this was posted in the player requested thread:
    
    Know this:
    1. Bleak Wood is bleak. It is a post apocalyptic horror-action roleplaying game, and not anything  like high fantasy. Yes, you will be killing stuff, but only the cunning of the player separates him from certain death. You will not be protected by high levels, vast amounts of magic items and an immense pool of hit points.
    
    ONE GOOD HIT AND YOU MIGHT DIE!

    Hehe. She loved you and would have turned you into a nice little minion. Perhaps your friends too. Awww... I like mutant ex-girlfriends.
    
    But, and this is important, you guys did EXCELLENT killing it off. Your ideas were great.
    
    I award all survivors with 20 extra points to distribute, no more than 5 in one place.
    
    I am impressed. Actually thought you would beg for mercy or run away. Or that Riv would shoot her in the face.
    
    As for you DARK_DRAGON:
    another killer without emotions, eh? Well, your social skills seem to be plummeting by the minute. Lets hope you won't enter a technological enclave then ;)
    
    Alright, write him up.

34. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    #114

    Hm. As for the one-good-hit-death part. It may be less suited for a forum game. In a tabletop game with this system, you can react quicker, discuss with your fellows, etc. etc.
    In a forum game on which you spend weeks to get to -something- and then get knocked out and/or die... well, that sucks a bit. In a tabletop game where you play two hours, die then... well, that's a different matter.
    
    I guess I won't play this anymore.

35. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    Quite alright Echo.
    
    It was fun to have you along.
    
    I wish the best for your future.

38. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    #118

    Murometz may post now, and so may dark_dragon.
    
    Just to avoid instant death, here is a bit of metainfo:
    dark_dragon, you are the cause of the sound Riv hears behind the car in the darkness. You have already identified a corpse and two living humans in the wrecked car.
    
    And so the adventure... resumes.

    Hey AG,
    
    Just for a quick info, will knife fighting be covered in martial arts?

40. Re: Bleak Wood Chapter 2 OOC

    No. Martial arts only affect unarmed combat.
