I nearly spit coke on my keyboard when I saw Protheuz's avatar. That's hillarious! Maybe I need to make a "narrator, SP style" for mine!

Heroes assemble!

Dustland can you post a little more regarding a certain couple's fate? I must know how the police handle the so-called civilians before I can figure how Harrison acts.

I was giving this some thought. Since you're sticking with your "civilian cover", you won't reach the action until Page 3 (we'll assume it doesn't take long for them to take your statement). However, take +2 Character Points for sacrificing action for roleplaying! Also, where does Susan go?

Everyone else: I'll say everyone who's teleporting with Nycto (Nycto and Nyx?) will get there on Page 1. Anyone going on their own (Fenris and Javi?) will get there on Page 2. Harrison will catch up on Page 3.

I was hoping to get to Page 1 tonight, but I've run out of time and I still need to stat out some robots, so the action will have to wait until tomorrow.

Fenris would have waited for the teleport to get there as soon as possible. He left, because your description implied that they were one move away.

Fenris is impulsive, but not tactically stupid.

thanks

While in Javi's case, he is stupid, he is expendable, and there he goes!

(Wohoo! I got a reward for my cowardice
I should really keep track of those points... I didn't spend any since the beginning of the game and I don't remember our pools :/

Harrison won't be relieved until Susan is in a cab or in a bus heading toward their home.)

Yes, Susan can be in something a villian can pick up and throw at Overdrive.

Don't laugh! I've got an heavy past with sadistic GMs!

I don't know how that was implied; I believe all I said was it was two blocks away. To avoid "tactical stupidity", let's just say everyone waited to teleport.

From now on, I'll try to define distances by # of moves rather than try to be descriptive.

I'll have a rough map posted and will begin Page 1 later this evening.

Volsung: I haven't begun to torment Harrison with Susan yet. Don't think you'd get out of that Disadvantage so easily as having her smooshed in a car. Wow, that sounds odd now that I've typed it.

Thanks. I may have creatively read my implications.

cheers

I'm not that naive

I'm having trouble doing what I intended to with the map. For now, I'll use the existing map and I'll use colored dots to represent players/npcs. If it comes out too small, I can email you the original file so you can zoom in(the host site I've been using is shrinking the images).

Ok, I changed the map to show characters, npcs, and bots! Let the battle begin!

Not sure what host you're using, but imageshack allows images to be zoomed in on to full size.

I may have to set up an account with them then, thanks. I've just been using an old gaming forum some friends ran over on yuku
