Ah good, at least we're getting this stuff out on the table before the game starts and everything explodes into a major kerfuffle.

So basically, your character is intended to be a lone wolf who doesn't work with the team, at least not with the character who provides the overwatch and who's primary role in the group is to help direct and assist the team in accomplishing the various tasks.

Any using additional methods of the character to attempt to try and get the lone wolf to work with the team under his directions would just simply result in the player deciding that he needs to leave?

Concepts are great, but implementation sucks. Why not improve it?

Like I said, Trisk, fair warning. You try to pull something like that, and I'm out.

Try to rationalize it all you want, I'm not cool with players rolling against other players. For what it's worth, Moto isn't a lone wolf, he's just cautious, curious, and overly confident as long as he's safely behind his drones. If your character can win his trust through roleplaying, he'll listen to good advice. As for providing (physical) overwatch, what do you think it is that Moto does?

I didn't get the "lone wolf who doesn't work with the team" vibe from him at all. He was merely being upfront about possible conflicts that may come up, in story.

What i DID get was a real passive aggressive vibe from you. You seem to be purposefully missing his point and making a straw man to attack. I never respect those type of arguments.

Duly noted. Altering character to avoid issues.

I'm not trying to be passive agressive or avoid his point, I'm attempting to clarify the point of whether or not moto would be listening to Carbonel's leadership or not. I want to provide to the team, but if that is going to cause issues, I'll do what I can to avoid it.

Sorry Elek, but I think I'm bowing out of this one. I just don't feel good about where the vibe is going.
Should give yall plenty of time to replace me with a backup.

Game well.

Sorry to hear that, Poindexter. Like I said, I have no issue with good roleplaying, so I do hope you'll reconsider.

 ??? What's just happening?
Come on guys, let's not get some disagreement on how to play ruin the mood. Nothing some good roleplaying can't fix.
@Pointdexter I too hope you'll reconsider, we need Skinny's zen to keep everyone calm.

Those playing nice will get their character artwork done, just saying  ;D

What the frag just happened? O_o

OK, so no social tests against other PC (except the bonus-giving part of Leadership). I really thought that was the default setting for most RPGs. To be fair, I do allow that in WoD and ASIF RPG, but not in SR.

As for remote Tactics use, please refer to this GIF.

I am ready to start the IC thread, but first I need to pm Poindexter and sort this thing out.

More combat ability would be nice, but I think we can swing it. I'm sorry to hear Poindexter is really out as I'd hoped he'd reconsider, but that's obviously his choice and I respect that he made it.

Up to you, Elek. If I get a vote I'd say we can do without a replacement unless you specifically wanted to throw a bunch of melee adepts at us, in which case we're hosed. :)
