[D20 Modern]Department 7 (OOC)

[perrinmiller]

Just a heads up, Voda Vosa is busy this week and possibly for the next month, so if we get into a fight soon you might have to NPC him VanorDM. He posted it on a separate thread. I just happened to cruise through the Talking the Talk forum and saw it. Normally I only check status of my subscribed threads, but was little bored this evening and I was browsing.

 

[VanorDM]

you might have to NPC him VanorDM.

Ok, if it comes to that and hopefully we'll be getting in a fight soonish... I'll run him as a NPC if needed.

Edit: I also have tokens made for everyone now.

 

[perrinmiller]

And just as I give you a heads up, Voda posts IC. Nice to know Dept7 is high on his priority list.

VanorDM; There are now 5 questions from IC posts that Kara will be looking for and there might be more. Sorry to bombard you with a significant amount of work to answer them, but hopefully you have time to flush out the answers before we actually get to that point IC.

If the Police Chief and Incident Reports don't have the information, then we will have to ask witnesses like the specific shop owners. But if the Police Chief has done his paperwork, we should get everything we need in one shot.

VanorDM; There are now 5 questions from IC posts that Kara will be looking for and there might be more.

No problem, I'm happy to answer them.

But if you wouldn't mind, could you post ooc versions of them here? I've read over the IC posts and I will have to admit I'm not seeing all the questions you are asking. So if you post them here ooc then I'll be able to make sure I answer them.

 

[perrinmiller]

No problem. Perhaps they all are not specifically questions, but they are pieces of information she is looking for. I even broke them up into their smaller parts, so there are more than just five.
1. Estimate on numbers of the bikers that have attacked previously.
2. How many times have the biker's raided Wescot?
3. What time of day were the raids?
4. Do the orcs all stay together on the raid? Or do they break up into groups?
5. List of the businesses that were hit and the order the bikers hit them.
6. Roads used to enter town and roads used when leaving.
7. How much loot are the orcs taking away with them? How are they transporting it?

Other questions in Rodny's area (but I assume these answers are yes):
1. Can he make or find the wireless remote cameras?
2. Will he be able to set up the surveillance using his laptop?

As for IC action. I was sort of waiting on Nick and or Rodny to post again before our characters turn in for the night and we advance the clock to the next morning. But we can go ahead post our good nights if you guys want. Kara is ready, but I posted IC last.

 

[ThWatcher]

Rodny was waiting for info before reporting. But with the low roll, he may not have much info yet.

For the cameras, if they have a security service in town, they should have what we need.

Answer to your Info Gathering

ThWatcher; I think VandorDM already provided all the results from Rodny's research. But if there were more questions based what you found out, add them to the OOC list.

But if you are referring to calling Ms. Johnson that's different. Kara answered IC that she thought we were the ones being sent to deal with the problem instead of the National Guard. However if you want to ask questions of Ms. Johnson, you might need to post that Rodny calls her, since it was only a suggestion earlier.

 

[ThWatcher]

You're right. That was so long ago an I've had so much going on that I forgot for a minute. Thanks for reminding me.

 

[perrinmiller]

VanorDM; Additional Questions:
7. Traffic cams and their coverage. Perhaps we would be able to find this answer by looking around ourselves when we drive from the motel hack to the center of town.
8. Supplies for Rodny. I imagine that if Wescot doesn't have them, we must still be within 30-60 minutes drive of a shopping area that will have what he needs.

 

[perrinmiller]

@VanorDM;
I am wondering if more information regarding the previous questions are forecoming in the Police Reports and meeting the Police Chief. Many answers were revealed in your last post, so perhaps I should develop a new list. I am sure we are itching to move on.

Further details:
1. After sunset, is vague. Police reports hopefully should tell us if it was twilight or full darkness.
2. List of businesses hit; so far I think it's Supermarket, Quickymart, PB's Bar, & Bowling Alley as they should all sell alcohol. Any more?
3. Tactics on bikers, how many groups and numbers in each group.
4. Do they always enter town and exit via the same road? Map has five roads that lead in the direction from downtown. Being a small town, farther out there is likely only 1 or 2 that head East from Wescot. Will we be able to find out which one they use.
