[SW Saga] The Second K'ril Incursion (OOC) [RE-RECRUITING]

[Douane]

FWIW, Martina looks like she's in her late 40s, and slightly younger than her husband. While a kid like Sianni might think that's elderly, I doubt that's universal.

Uh-oh, I think I need to preface future posts with ISHO ("In Sianni's honest opinion"). Most of these posts of mine are of course terribly slanted from Sianni's PoV. And since she isn't really good at coming up with creative inuslts, she defaulted to the standard of her trade(s) where "old" usually means "on the downslide" and/or "soon to be dead". Normally (ie. if she had more time and info to come up with something) she wouldn't even touch "old/elderly/grandma", especially in the light of her 'father's' age.

No, it couldn't possibly be because the droid couldn't see her when it was doing its threat identifications

Nothing but K'ril propaganda!!! (Man, I really need a pic of Sianni with some crosshairs over her and the caption "Too awesome to compute!" )

 

[Douane]

Wait... you mean Sianni isn't already rabid?!

Slander, nothing but slander!

So far Hawke has only met the sweet, caring and demure Sianni ... not the angry one. * Snort! *



And to think I was plannig on actually having Sianni apologize for her kick. Well, a Sianni-style apology, of course, but still ...

Y'know, I just realized that Reyals (Hawke's surname) spelled backwards is Slayer. Totally unintentional, I assure you. The mind works in mysterious ways.

 

[drothgery]

Just as an FYI - at least this week, and probably going forward, my tabletop game is on Thursdays now, so I probably won't get a post in tonight.

BTW, did I mention my support for crits just doing max damage instead of double? No? Well, consider me approving then. Especially since I just rolled a sweet crit on talkative droid # 1's head!!!

OOC: This is really true, at least with current algorithms and current computers.

True, but 1) Various non-traditional computing schemes (quantum computing) have means to address this [though one can then work on quantum crypto, etc, etc.] and 2) SW is more space fantasy than Sci-fi anyway. It should be easier if they had Devan, I'm sure... and makes plot sense (which is more important from the SW point of view).

 

[Shayuri]

Hehe

Sci fi computers are funny that way. Anything can be hacked...unless it's important that it not be.

Look at The Matrix. A whole planet full of superintelligent AI's can't hack Zion's access codes? In 200 years?

Of course, later we find out there's probably a reason for that...but still.

Point being that Dramatic Security is as secure as it needs to be...for drama.

 

[drothgery]

For purposes of this game, you can probably figure any instances of 'fast hacking' you see are people exploiting 'back doors' rather than pulling a brute-force crack. During the first K'ril Incursion, Keda Starwind was able to do a lot of this because she had inside information on the guy who designed most of their security, and because she's something of a genius with computers (as opposed to merely very good with the Force).

Quick call for suggestions from anyone with a copy of Starships of the Galaxy --

The Korlen Phet is a heavily modified Dynamic-Class Frieghter (the same kind of ship as the Ebon Hawk), which I haven't statted out yet. If there's anything you guys would particularly like to have built in, let me know, as for some reason it might be necessary to have her statted out soon.

 

[Shayuri]

Hee hee

Well...some kind of ion weapon for disabling ships would be nice. We may want prisoners/informants.

I'm also thinking our needs will probably be somewhat...or very...oddball from time to time. Some kind of modular bay, that could let us swap out a variety of devices easily, might be handy.

Medical bay will need to be good. We'll be using it a lot, I expect.

I will think on it.
