Wing and Sword: a d20 Modern military campaign [METAGAME]

[Barak]

Added: Ooooohhhh (*slaps self on forehead*), I reread my earlier post and now I understand your confusion - I wrote you acted normally on your count which would waste the ready action. My bad - thanks for calling that to my attention.

Your shot comes the same time as every one elses, once it's reposted

Heh. Now I understand -your- confusion.

The post I deleted was my -second- shot following the fells mass-attack. The shot that I readied is still posted. It's in the post in which I readied the action. I had just thought that that shot had been fired, so I had posted a -second- shot, which is the one I deleted.

Found it - I added Normand's shot into the narrative.

Bobitron, while Marcel might not be able to hit much of anything, you may take some comfort in knowing that apprently he can't be hit, either...

The die rolls "behind the screen" have been quite interesting at times.

Marcel is a big believer in the 'keep a big grin on your face and good things will happen' philosophy. Like I said, a lover, not a fighter.

I was re-reading our game thread, and I wanted to mention something specifically to Barak and знаток but really for everyone's benefit:

I think you guys are running great characters and I'm really happy with the way you guys are diving into the adventure. Don't let the fact that Neumann and Duval jumped on Normand and Vidal give you the idea that I want you to do anything differently - I'm just roleplaying their characters based on my notes for each one.

You guys are the heroes, and it's not my intent to steal your thunder - I do want the NPCs to be believable and to offer consequences for your actions in the context of the game.

 

[Barak]

Heh thanks for the heads up. At this point though, I figure Normand is more likely to think Neumann is a dumb kraut, and yet do as he says, then to do what he wants. I don't figure that'll stay true forever, but we'll see.

Plus Normand would prolly be in deep doodoo right now if he had ran where he intended to run.

If for any reason Neumann hadn't been there, I'd have been happy to let Normand charge two squads of fells on his own...

Bobitron, I'm still short an action for Marcel in the 8th round - I've got 8th round: move (move), ? (?) and 9th round: throw grenade (attack), move (move). Was there another action from the 8th round that you'd like me to edit in?

I assumed his action was wasted covering Martinez. I pictured it as covering his entire body with my own, so didn't bother psting another action.
