    Battletech/Mechwarrior PbP: "Days of the Jackal" [closed]

    No worries, I understand. :) The guy, however, not knowing anything about McKenzie's personal history, just wonders how, considering her academy training and subsequent service in the Armed Forces, she could get so easily scared [at least to his standard].

    Mechwarrior: "Days of the Jackal"

    Alxander Karner, Wolverine-K pilot Alexander gives the simulator pods a thorough visual once-over, but quickly comes to the conclusion that, while a few of them might actually be academy-grade, none of them come even close to the kind of equipment he used at the NAIS. In fact, the ones towards...

    Mechwarrior: "Days of the Jackal"

    The stranger slowly lowers his arms, but raises an eyebrow at her reply. "You would have to defend yourself with a gun because the guy trash-talked to you? Strange, don't you think so? You have been trained all those years at the academy as a warrior and feel threatened by someone feeding you...

    T20: High Law and Low Justice (IC Thread 2)

    Turning once again, Zaed's eyes open wide at the sight of Vyrkris' behaviour. Oooh! What's this? Is she sitting on her tail? He steps over and gently closes his paws over her muzzle and one of her paws while putting his own friendly smiling muzzle directly into Vyrkris' field of vision. Zaed...

    Shalimar, I think we have to agree on disagreeing on what constitutes "justifiable self-defense". Frankly said, I myself have been raised and also trained later on to see things rather differently on what justifies actually shooting someone. Folkert

    Mike, you mentioned an "alcohol problem" in your background. Perhaps it is not yet totally overcome, and Sam is still struggling with it? Folkert

    But does Mckenzie really have so many witnesses? I think Marik police, operating on Marik soil, "interviewing" Marik citizens might come to a different conclusion: "Loyal Marik citizen, did you see that Steiner scum shot an unarmed man without a warning here in Montenegro?" In addition I...

    Thanks, Mike! Having re-read the thing twice now, I have to say that the fault lies clearly with me for not being there to defuse the situation. Sorry for my failure! I also want to apologize to everyone for snapping out here in the thread and the tone of my posts. In light of some recent...

    Mechwarrior: "Days of the Jackal"

    "No." The darkskinned man seems to have returned from the back of the hall. Both of his hands raised to shoulder level in a non-threatening manner, he walks up to the small group, brushing past the speechless Dark Knight. Calmly, he continues: "There won't be any shooting here tonight...

    Please remember that McKenzie is in Montenegro where the name of the Steiners has no pull at all. While she bring some influence to bear, given proper time, no one is going to stand in awe just because of her name.

    T20: High Law and Low Justice (IC Thread 2)

    Still hovering (however needlessly) around the unconscious Vyrkris, Zahedhrarrg suddenly realizes that there is something amiss on the boat. Whirling around, he discovers the "problem". "Hey, who put the navy driver on the hot seat? Piloting this is scout's work, of course!"

    Battletech/Mechwarrior PbP: "Days of the Jackal" [closed]

    Mike, I don't think that "He does have a 2 charisma, so it's not being an a-hole, it's roleplaying." really works. Having a Charisma of 2 does not mandate annoying people just because. Please remember that the PCs will have to work together to some degree. Nobody has to like everyone...

    Shalimar, I'll try to intervene as soon as possible! (Provided, the fr*kking boards let me do so, of course.) Folkert

    Mechwarrior: "Days of the Jackal"

    Finally one of the Dark Knights makes his way towards Mckenzie, Ryan and Yuriko with a big grin on his face, pushing past some of the tourists. Though his smile diminishes and his body stiffens for a moment at the sight of Yuriko, he nevertheless walks onwards and greets Mckenzie, pointedly...

    Everyone, I'm back! Looks like the boards have finally stopped constantly logging me out and hanging up with my posts. Just posted a bit of an update and hope to post some more in a few hours. Folkert

    Mechwarrior: "Days of the Jackal"

    Behind McKenzie, Ryan and Yuriko a soft voice suddenly begins to speak: "A word of advice because you are new to Solaris. It is generall considered bad form, or even badder attitude, to wear the insignia of a stable into the home of a cooperative. And while you are no member of the Silver...

    "Yeah, right, I was with the Davion Guards ... " " ... and then I slammed the barrel of my PPC straight into his cockpit." " I've been Class 4 Champion for four years straight, babe. Wanna see my trophy collection?" "I swear it, Candy. Linda heard it from her cousin who has a friend whose...

    Mechwarrior: "Days of the Jackal"

    Dark Knights Compound The "compound" of the Dark Knights, actually nothing more than a glorified villa on the Redbluff Street near the Solaris River (just barely inside Montenegro and close to Cathay), is bristling with activity. Countless people are streaming into and out of the place and...

    Shalimar, you are right, of course. He is. That remark was meant as a slight 'jab' at Radiant. ;) FLUM (Flug-Mech = Flying Mech) is the German term for LAM. Folkert

    Moderator/Admin needed in the Living EN World forum no more! Thanks!

    Thanks, Creamsteak! What Shalimar said. I came from the Sub-Forums: Gaming Action page and clicked the Living EN World link just beneath the Playing the game by mistake (and posted away without checking which forum I was in). Folkert
