[ooc]Traveller T20 - Full

[Watus]

Tonguez: I was just looking over your character, and I notice you're carrying a Gauss Rifle. That's some pretty serious hardware. But I also noticed that you didn't take the WP Combat Rifleman, which I think you need in order to operate a Gauss Rifle.

However, I'm only operating with the Lite rules at the present (d**n book still hasn't come in the mail yet), so I could be wrong about that.

Also, if you don't mind my saying so, some notes about what he looks like, how he's dressed, etc. would be helpful for those of us about to interact with him.

Reference the homeworld of Daramm. What is the tech level?

TL14

So, looking at the World Skills & Feats tables:
Since Daramm is a waterworld:
My character gets 3 skills (chosen from Swim, Survival, Driving, Navigation, T/Communications) and T/Computer skill.
And get the Vessel/Grav feat.

Is this correct?

I'll be away for the next 40 hours or so and probably won't have access.

According to the lite rules, Combat Rifleman is required to use a Gauss rifle or you get the -4 on attack rolls. It will also be prohibited on any world of Law Level of 3 or above. That would be pretty much everywhere.

We always had full access to Starmaps. I suppose that they were like royal ordinance surveys. But it also makes sense to have information on non-imperial areas limited as the traveller universe is a little more conflict prone. Its your call. I'm easy either way.

Hey doghead. Gonna miss you, though my character might not.

My character is just about complete. Just a few finishing touches to go.

Tailspinner, sorry I didn't see or reply to this earlier- hope my answer don't mess up anything you've done so far.

Daramm is a waterworld, but because it's so high in the TL dept, you don't have access to survival as a skill - you wouldn't normally have access to swim, since it's even lower tech, but it's available to you because it's ceremonially taught to most Luriani.

Daramm is also a High Population world and an Industrial world, meaning you also get to choose from the following: T/Communications, T/Electronics, T/Gravitics, P/Adminstrator, K/Interstellar Law, Liason.

You have a choice, based on the way Daramm is populated of Vessel(Grav) or Vessel(Submarine) for your world feat.

I think I had better pull my thumb out of whereever it's been, finish off Ruzz-koff and stick him up...

 

[Wilphe]

My apologies for the delay.
I'll fininsh him off in due course.
I can either bring him in now, or skip the prologue until he's done.

Your call.

You're welcome to do either - we're set to go as soon as the llast character gets posted and everyne gives me the "thumbs-up"

BTW, if you could drop me an email, I have just a bit of off-list info for you.

Finally had some time to go over the characters in a bit more detail - more to follow as I keep looking.

Ktarlewaweikye:
Looks good

Saanath:
Hand Computer (Cr2000). For the extra money, do you want special software installed (and if so, what general type?), or an upgraded computer?
For Cr1000 extra, you could get basic logic, some miniturization or some extra cpu power, a data library, etc.

Your mobile phone is (as far as I can tell on the equipment charts I have) a "personal communicator" which costs Cr250 (incl. GPS), and functions only on TL8+ worlds. A personal datalink, which would allow all of that plus video communication, text messaging, etc. would cost 500. Both would require nominal subscription fees on each planet visted.

Quinn:
- The Gauss Pistol has the same regulatory issues as the Gauss rifle. As a military weapon, it is prohibited on worlds with a law level of 3+. Both Daramm and Dukh wold qualify, as would the vast majority of starports.

Zaedrarrg:
Looks good - do you need help with equipment, Douane? Prestige is +3 prior history

Thomas:
Looks good, Tonguez, although I'm not quite sure what "Gauss Rifle transported legally" means either - it could get you in some trouble in quite a few places unless I'm unaware of something from CT that T20 doesn't mention or I haven't seen. - also, check your email please.

Ruzz'Koff:
Wilphe, looks like the character is almost set, as soon as equipment etc. is ready. Prestige is +3 for prior history.

Talispinner:
Let me know if you need anything
