The Peacemakers - Alternity, Star*Drive (OOC Discusssion)

[Samnell]

Say Ozmar, got a question.

Does the AI have some kind of honorary rank or standing that gives it authority to order people around? Could we be held responsible for refusing its orders?

Officially it has no rank. Or rather, it has the lowest rank on board. However, one of its roles is to communicate orders from one officer to another, so it may speak with the authority of the captain at times. Also, it controls the security systems on the ship, and so it has been programmed to restrict access to areas for certain crewmembers, regardless of their orders. Finally, it is not supposed to obey any illegal commands from its crew.

Generally, the lower-ranking members assume that when it requests their assistance, it is speaking with the Captain's authority.

Although it also controls three remotes. But those are offline at the moment...

Where, oh where, has our GM gone?

 

[Hammerhead]

Yeah, we haven't seen him in like...an hour and a half.

Well, I'm waiting for him to get back to me about that skill check.

 

[Ozmar]

Man... I leave for two hours. I went to get some saw blades and then cut a cabinet and installed a sink. Also bought beer, ice cream, fed the tot and distracted her with a cartoon. Now I'm back!

[Angel Tarragon]

Any luck checking out those skill check rules Ozmar? I've long forgotten how it works.

 

[Ozmar]

Yeah, I'm re-learning myself. I think I got it figured out. This game has a simple core, but its wonderfully complex in the details. Which it has to be, since it is a scifi game, and a good scifi game has to handle a lot of interactions of various technologies.

Hey, Oz, is there a chance to get some floorplans of the ship online or ist it in one of the books? I added the floorplans to the RG thread, this should help players get their bearings while on the ship.

EDIT: Never mind I found it.

Yes, as you found it, p. 77 in Starships. If I can figure out how to get it online, that would be cool.

The visual mods: add a door in room 16 that leads to the hallway. Room 3 is split in two with a second door to the hall. And room 10 has been converted to a holoprojection bay which is serving as the quarters for the entertainer.
