Star Trek: Ascendant - OOC

[Blackrat]

An older man with a balding head materializes in front of Dr. Crescent's desk. "what is the nature of the medical emergency?"

Wait, it's Mark I afterall? I thought we had a Mark II prototype... Or is it a fall between prototype that still uses Mark I appearance?

If it is ok with everybody. I was thinking that we use invisible castle for rolls and then post results. The first dice always rolled will be the Drama die. So if the first d6 comes up as a 6, then you would add the two highest together for your skill test. Also if your in combat include your damage with the attack, depending upon what your opponent is doing for his actions, you might still hit him.

Rhun, do you want to try a quick melee combat to try the melee combat maneuvers and the skill tests? This way everyone can see what we are doing. After the ship launches, I was thinking about stopping at the Jupiter Station range for a weapons test of the ship manuevers.

It is the upgraded version of the original one. The enhanced one with Dr. Bashir being used as the primary model wont happen until around 2374. They are trying changes to the program including a bed side manner subroutine.


This weekend I am going to try and add more of the combat rules including weapons and damage, ranged weapon maneuvers, as well as health and healing.

Actually the Bashir one is LMH, Longterm Medical Hologram. But the standard Mark II is played by Andy Dick. But anyways, I'm ok with it being a prototype of original looks

I must have missed the one with Andy Dick. I knew about the one where Bashir was asked to model for it. After looking it up, I see what you mean.

Heh, those were both some of my favourite episodes. It's hilarious when EMH II says to EMH I that "I'm a doctor, not a commando"

Yes, I'd definitely like to give it a try and get an understanding. I'll post IC here today.

I love that episode.

I have added more to the combat manuevers post on the Ascendant thread, including health, taking damage, the Wound Levels, and Healing the wounds as well.

Combat is dangerous in this game. Phasers for the most part usually stun an opponent on the first shot. Disruptors do a lot of damage also, usually lethal damage. Its best to avoid being hit and shot in the game.

I am going to put up some weapon and equipment stats later on the Ascendant thread.

 

[knightemplar]

I have placed energy weapons, examples of melee weapons, some heavy weapons as well as more general equipment at the bottom of the Ascendant thread.
