Must watch!

Apologies for the silence, guys...had to duck out of town for a couple days without any notice.

All is well now.

Sorry for the silence, guys. I was (foolishly) relying on email notifications to alert me when the main thread was posted.

Also, are there any conventions I should keep in mind as I post? When I have a GM question (like in my first post to the IC thread), should I spoilerize it or otherwise mark it somehow?

Its all good.

Really, when it comes to posting conventions, it differs with everyone. I'll be sblocking combat info so it doesn't get in the way, as with specific info for people when it isn't to everyone(Knowledge checks, Spot, etc). If there's something you want to ask that you don't want to alert the other players to, I'd defniitely spoiler it, though I know some people that do that with all OOC info.

The only thing I'd say to make sure of is you clearly mark anything that is OOC.

Isschar looks at Varren skeptically, "Visual enhancements? They don't seem to help them hit anything though..."

That's the character shields...

It's still true though isn't it?

Sadly, it is. The 501st must have gotten some mud in the cloning pool by those 19 years...

The way I see it, we have three options:

1. Wait for nightfall. If we don't keep moving, we'll probably get arrested by an Imperial patrol. OTOH, walking all day will greatly tire us out.
2. Walk into the city, hoping we can bluff our way past the stormtroopers at the perimeter. I'm not sure what we could tell them, though. If we pose as merchants, why don't we have any merchandise? If we pose as bounty hunters, why are we in Bestine - and who are we looking for? We could maybe pose as hunters, but our lack of a speeder - and hunting blasters - casts doubt on that story. Maybe we could claim we were attacked by Tusken Raiders, or maybe we could claim that our speeder broke down, and this was the nearest settlement.
3. Bypass Bestine and head for Arnthout (but we're not well-equipped for that long a walk in the desert).

Our group is, what, 3/4 aliens? #2 can't be completely viable. Human High Culture being as it is. #3's just as suicidal.
