Machine God Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 @Mazer Rackham - GM, do we regain spent Infamy next episode?

Mazer Rackham Posted March 3 Author Share Posted March 3 (edited) Good query. Yes, it works like Fate Points, so the Infamy Points regenerate - the way they get used is the same, but if they get burned it's a whole different ballgame, it wipes out 1D10+10 of your infamy. In the Delly incident, Necro went from 23 to 05 (or sommat), which left him exceptionally vulnerable to lethal attacks, as he had no IP's to spend/roll/burn etc. A very, very dangerous situation with the current campaign ruleset.

Mazer Rackham Posted March 4 Author Share Posted March 4 Alright, Compact 3A (Undertaking) is sketched up. I mean to plot up the White Tigress' Boogaloo in a couple of days, but for now, the Mortals and whoever else is going to Bounty can start jawing. Think outside the box, chaps. For example, someone could set down Crux'as or Xerxes on Bounty and they could book passage for the others on a freight hauler, that kind of thing. If you want to just land in the Wasp, that's your call too. As you'll be aware, Bounty is pretty much a quiet backwater, but the institutions of the Imperium are not. Like a sleeping dragon, if you knock something over in your machinations to wend through the dungeon, it might pop an eye open and give you a lazy stare before deciding you're not worth the trouble - but if you wake it up.... Feel free to alter or adjust the objectives around the premises listed.

Necronaut Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 @Mazer Rackham Might be worthwhile adding an objective to start laying the groundwork for a cult uprising and/or getting a start on converting the populace, or bringing any local cults into the fold.

Mazer Rackham Posted March 4 Author Share Posted March 4 Yeah, I mean the infil team can add that if they like, or let it fall under one of the Secondaries (Populace Loyalty) for lighter touch. As long as they hit the high notes of: Get in, get out, don't get caught. Rest is up to them - what I put in the Compact isn't GM fiat/word of God, besides the Primary.

Lysimachus Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 Very nice! I'm assuming/guessing that the mining complex is where the Tigress has told us we'll find her enemy? Or maybe attacking the mine will draw him out in some way?

Mazer Rackham Posted March 4 Author Share Posted March 4 No, no, the assault team is going to Kataris 41. It's a Rackham: 2x + 4y = 1. 3y - 42x = kaboom The Tigress' rival has set up in this sector - so what you have are two rivals beating the hell out of each other for control of Inca Sector. Razor's Edge is going to Kataris, dropping the Infil team off (however they like) on the way to the Mandeville Point.

Lysimachus Posted March 4 Share Posted March 4 (edited) Very quick question, as I think maybe I've missed something. Isn't the Razor's Edge (glad we're going with that name!) stashed somewhere else and we need to leave Ithyca to go pick it up? So if we're dropping the infiltration team off, we'll have to do it in the Dredge? Or did the Tigress bring the new ship with her and stash it somewhere in the Ithyca asteroid field while we were busy? Edit: if the latter is right, are we leaving the Dredge where it is (well, hidden somewhere else in the asteroid field with a very minimal skeleton crew left aboard?) while we go do bad stuff?

Something like that.... With the first main post from me when we re-open, I intend to lead the whole party to the co-ordinates provided by the Seneschal, which is where your new 'motor' is...located. Once that's done, my hands are off, and you're free to do as you like, but you'll get the ship before you do anything else. I mean, you could pick the ship up later if you want - if you've got some plan around it, it's completely up to you and I'll chop things around to let that work. EDIT: Once you boys have had a good shufty at the proposals and made any alterations we're all happy with, break up into your teams and choose who's the Anointed for each, as both need one. Obviously, Lysi has been piped for the assault team, but some other wonderful and noble volunteer is required for the infil team.

No, no, happy to have it ASAP - its definitely better (more low key) for dropping the covert team, and at the current point, better than the Dredge in a stand up fight too! I just wasn't clear about when/how we'd drop the others off before we go to the mining station.
