1930's Pulp True20 Game

Yeah, we do seem to be really Expert-heavy. Still, as long as we've got our own skill-niches, it should all work out.

The idea of coming up with new Core Abilities is an interesting one, though it's one we're given no guidance from the book on doing.

I might consider one for boosting interaction or scholarly skills, I'm just not sure what it should look like.

P.S. I suppose I could take The Talent easily enough, but I thought it would be more interesting (and less headache for Trilobite) not to have it.

From Doc Raven's description, I think the Expertise abilty fits him to a tee. He seems to know a about everything. Or that's what he likes to think :p

In Colin's case, I was thinking of using it for tracking. That low wisdom does hurt him a bit....

I think it also fits well with Hawkeye, who always seems to have just the right luck and just the right idea to pull something off, in spite of overwhelming odds. This will help him on those crazy pilot checks when landing in choppy waters while being shot at by asian drug smugglers.
 

"Wait. You plan on letting the plane that I just fixed up get shot at again?!? *grumble* Brand new fusilege... *grumble* ...propeller shot up...fusebox blown... Drug smugglers? Why would they be shooting at us unless we had something in the cargo-- Hawkeye?!?" ;)

Looks like we're just about ready to start our pbp.
 

Wealth would be +9, not taking any equipment out. I haven't bothered with anything but a nice pistol and a leather jacket so far, but honestly that's probably enough for Hawkeye.

I chose Daring for a virtue, but Impulsive for a vice. I don't know if they're allowed to go hand in hand like they sort of do, but I think I can differentiate between them.

Should I use different stats for the machete? Probably +3 maybe instead of +4.

Either way, I'm ready to rock on the pbp...let's fire it up.
 


Just posting to say I haven't disappeared; there was a fairly large fire in my yard today that I had to deal with the aftermath of. I should be able to post Amund's stats tomorrow.
 


I am thinking that you will have a Sikorsky S-43 Flying Boat. The Catalina is a bit before the times.

Trilobite, any hints on what augmentations should be taken for the Sikorsky? (assuming it's Mac's "pride & joy"...)

Everybody ok?

Yes, unless you count some wood planks, our old fiberglass boat, or an ancient tire.

In other news,
Amund is coming along well, but I won't be ready to post him until after the nonspecific time at which Sears is delivering our new fridge (FYI, unrelated to the fire in the yard). At worst, that'll mean after noon my time (US west coast).
