Thanks much, Uron. While I haven't dropped off the face of the net, I have been developing myself in other boards, and unfortunately that meant SWRPGNet had to take the hit. It was a lot easier...

Okay then. I guess we can declare the game officially finished.

However, I did want to ask one last thing:

Being a newbie GM (this was literally my first time GMing by forum) I want to know...

I check in every once in a while, but I'm still waiting for some kind of IC response. I can't keep an RP going talking to myself. If people start posting again, I'll be there, ready to keep it going....

Ortalis turns from the viewport he'd been clutching (to keep his balance) and relays what he'd seen to everyone in the cockpit.

"Okay, it looks like the thing is just a souped-up airspeeder - if...

Ja.

In but a few moments I'll start the combat in the IC thread.

Okay, since our comrade Fharion seems to be tied up at the moment, I'm going to brush the dust off this game by making his initiative for him, and starting combat.

*waves* Hello, Ravnor.
...

So far the only person I have initiative from is Stormrider.

I don't know - nobody's posted much for a long while. I'd jumpstart things by starting combat, but not everyone has submitted initiative yet.

At this point, you are fleeing from Djanakans, yes. Depending on your actions later on, you may have to flee from Imperials. Currently, you would probably be welcome on any planet if you keep a low...

Just some more information:

Even though initiative has not been rolled, some things have already happened on the ship:

1) Fin has put the engines into 'overdrive' and brought the ship to full...

Well, if any character is doing nothing but hanging on, they might as well make the check and see.

Jamming comsignals from the speeder would be tough, since you don’t have the right signal to do...

Well, from what I understand, being a Sensors Operator is something like:

"Hey - he's targeting the left vent cluster on our engines! Dodge up and to the right to shake the lock - on my mark..."
...

The R2 (Jano I'Tu) makes a click in reply and connects to the ship's piloting module. Almost instantly the gravity projectors whine in protest, trying to counteract the G forces incurred with a tight...

Microjumps would be the best idea. You know of a couple planets nearby, but coordinates and maps are restricted on Djanakai. Since Ortalis is not from Djanakai, he might be helpful. (Aid Another -...

The ship isn't a model you recognize (most likely made on Djanakai and never exported) but there are similarities to the Konta airspeeder. The flare on the engine intake is large and bent out, which...

You want to surrender without any information about the enemy ship or anything? That's pessimistic.

HUGE HINT:
There are ways to find out about a ship without using detectable scanners...

Actually, no. You still have the normal number of Hull Points, but the damage reduction is halved. (To represent missing shield plates)
...Its maximum speed in the atmosphere is also halved - so the...

You have to be in deep space before the hyperdrive engines can work - so just get out of the atmosphere and you can make your getaway.
(Please note, though, that this is very bad for hyperdrive...

I thought of that myself, in the encounter with the two thugs - however, I went through some old logs of dice rolls, and they seem pretty even. It's either a programmed disposition toward our IP...

Sorry, but it looks like this is one perceptive Pilot.

Well, I did neglect to ask, so it's nobody's fault, but successfully getting through required a Forgery check. Here, I rolled one for you.

You fail.

Well, Ortalis is wide awake and wondering what smells so bad.

*cups hands around mouth and yells*

FHARION! Get your bum in here!

Heh. You people and your alcohol. I don't touch it, personally, but the hangovers must be a real **censored**

As the ship starts to rise into the restricted-access area, the clouds disappear and there is nothing between you and the stars but a pane of duraglass.

Far, far below, you can almost see the...

No, Ortalis wouldn't lose WP for failing the check - that would be like getting hurt every time you didn't wake up.
