Um... Then doesn't that mean I get promoted again?

No, because promotions are only calculated by the Gear Picks you get from your classes. If you took 2 levels of Scientist, you'd be promoted, but you need 7 from class to get there.

Otherwise you'd be promoted by having an 18 Charisma, and demoted by taking stat damage!

Ya, I caught that and edited my last post before you responded.

Sure. And I still say you have 7 Gear Picks, because you should get a bonus one from rank. If Captain gets it, you should get it, because you outrank a captain. It makes no sense for Captains to get MORE than Colonels, does it? You get 1 bonus Gear Pick from Rank, 1 from Cha, and 5 from Class. 7.

This is from the errata thread I posted above:

Officer Gear Picks and Bundles (p. 284)

The officer gear pick and bundle progression is correct as printed. Note that officers receive extra personal bundles, as they receive better financial compensation than enlisted men or civilians.

So I would not get a +1 gear pick. I get a lot more than the Captain already, so it makes sense I don't get the extra gear pick.

If you're alright with that, we'll probably let it stand. I think it's silly to lose things for being promoted, but, hay, I'm a Specialist, not an Officer, what do I care? I get my gear picks regardless. *Shrug*

Cool. Then.... I think I should be good to go.

Thanks again!

Me too. Pity Aeson's not. Let's remedy that soon.

So, can you tell me more about Jim, reveal? I'd like to know him a bit better before we start playing. Ashley'd have read his file, and any mission reports he's filed, so she'd know a lot about him.

Then again, she's public info, too. Being formarly of the N.I.D. there will probably be some prejudice against her. People might think she's an undercover informant, or worse, there to steal technology. She has a lot to do to prove herself to the SGC, and it will (hopefully) come across in her additude.

I can't wait until we actually get a chance to talk in character.

[Aeson]

If I'm not ready maybe my character can be that way also. It could be "Ok fella your comin' with us. Ready or not here we go".


I have the stargate book now but I still don't have the spycraft. I also haven't had the time to look at the book much. I got a call today about a job and inteview on Monday. My mind has been on that today. I can't f this up.

I can roll with a character that you guys come up with. I'll try to have soem info on him this weekend.

I'll work on more of a background and some scenarios tomorrow.

I'm good with waiting until you're ready.

And I don't think you need the Spycraft book. I don't have it.

Well, can someone create a thread to get talk in character? Maybe the story is we get to know each other first until Aesons character joins us. Then we actual get into mission or plot hooks.

It certanly isn't necessary, but it can be helpful to better understand the system and provides feats and classes that aren't in Stargate but can work (ala the Fixer.)
