Well, at least I manage to get in so I can wish you good progress on your recovery!

Will there be a Map perchance?

After careful consideration, no. I won't be plotting the servitor on the map unless it's detected, and I don't expect this to take too long..!

[Machine God]

I'm Larping this weekend 

[Mazer Rackham]

No worries, have a good time. 

[Lysimachus]

Do you want us to continue with the Initiative order, boss, or wait until MG is reconnected/back in regular clothes? 

 

(Reynard shouldn't affect anything, I think - he will shove his Rebreather on, grab an extinguisher and head towards the fire ready to start putting it out in Round 2)

Yes, that's perfectly fine. We can consider it narrative time light (to keep moving and because I'm high as a Swooping Hawk on colds and flu juice).

[Lysimachus]

Cool, done.

 

Someone else might need to join Reynard on fireman duty, as with an average roll the fire grows by 4 square metres every turn and each suppressor only puts out 1 square metre per turn...

 

Edit: or will the fact that Reynard is there fighting it mean that it is not 'unattended' and therefore it won't grow any worse while he is there?

That's correct.

[Machine God]

Just a short interlude there whilst I have a think.

Oops.

Just remember when turning it off and on again that you have to turn it on again :p

 

(are we still in combat time or should Malvolio start up his 'seal the breach' power before things turn ugly?)

[Mazer Rackham]

I'll make the alterations in post, but yes, Players can consider themselves in Narrative Time.

[Lysimachus]

Reynard doesn't have Tech-Use yet (it's one of my next planned picks) but I did take Medicae, so unless we have a ship's doctor hanging around somewhere, he will stay in case anyone needs patching up after they've got things running. Is there a medikit anywhere in this part of the ship?

[A.T.]

Malvolio can perhaps step in and shield Reynard at the diverter, his void suit includes microjets and the void-weave cloak he wears over it is unnaturally heat resistant - if applied at double AP he can face-tank it for some time.

I'm semi-comatose from chronic sleep deprivation so no rush.

 

Hope you are both better and on the mend.

Giddy as a fruitbat on linctus and pills, but I'm feeling better now, thanks dude.

There will be a cabinet somewhere with one.

Completely up to you lads how you want to proceed. Not a problem with this plan.

I reckon looking at the required diverter tests, Castinius might be the better pick, as Toughness tests and decent TB+AV are what is needed, and Reynard isn't massively well off in either department...

 

Reynard will then be able to do some First Aid if any wounds do go through?

[Necronaut]

@Lysimachus Petrus also has training in medicae now, so he can render assistance as needed. Super slammed at work this week -- I'm trying to keep abreast of things but I can't really formulate any posts at present. 

 

@Mazer Rackham Petrus will also attempt to assist Reynard in wrestling with the door lever as appropriate. 

[Mazer Rackham]

I have this vision of Petrus hauling the wrench, and Reynard being a Catherine wheel on the other side.

[Lord_Ikka]

I will update tomorrow night after reading all the various threads...

[A.T.]

Mechanically speaking - the Chylde was equipped for limited silent running as it can maintain long range sensor sweeps and its escort while in silent mode (invisible to normal detection unless another vessel gets in close) so that is an option available.

 

Of course until the ship can move again it is somewhat easier to locate that it would otherwise be.

[Mazer Rackham]

It can be reasonably assumed, given the Chylde's size and profile, that whoever is out there hasn't spotted the ship, per se, but thy have certainly detected the warp translation.

[Trokair]

Can anybody think of any other order that might be needed at this time. We are kind of stranded for now.
