[QUOTE="perrinmiller, post: 5169644, member: 88649"] Sorry about double posting. FYI, I am on a 5-day weekend right now, with only guaranteed posting in the evenings, squeezing in all of my games in a few hours. Anything I do from mornings or during the day is either a little rushed or actually from my iPhone, thus I tend to be concise and straight to the point. I will be back to work on Thursday (Wed night for you guys). That said, Rory posted his intentions for the evening in Wescot, leaving Kara and Nick (and Ming) now the ones bringing up the rear in the IC time-line. Basically what we are doing is a Gather Information check among the local LEOs, the restaurants (might actually find the Police Chief there if he doesn't have a family), and finally the motel and possibly even the supermarket if they are open late otherwise the Quickymart. We can RP the encounters or not, makes no difference to me either way, but this will take a significant amount of time RL back and forth between Kara and Nick and VanorDM. In game mechanics, it will take 1d4+1 hours, and Kara can take a 10 for a result of 15 which should be good enough to learn whatever people at those locations know about the biker's and their previous attacks (I was assuming Wescot has been hit before). I don't think the Wealth Check will apply as we are using our cover credentials instead and Feds would be bribing LEOs and innocent civilians. What I suggest is this, we advance the clock to late evening (assuming we are not going to have any special encounters before then) when everyone is back to the motel CP and we are sharing notes and results. Then we players can ask further questions and clarifications (retro-actively) as we would have if we RP everything out. Sound good? [/QUOTE]
