I'm not, it's just the way I'm stood.

But yes, I shall follow you.

If people are getting bored/don't have time for this run or whatever please say so, I feel like I tried pushing it and got nowhere fast. Although on my part I did give up quite fast.

Sorry, I thought I had posted already. Yeah lets head to the snowmobiles. Are the tracks easy to follow or will one of us have to make a few perception tests?

I would like to finish it for sure.

It happens, just roll with it. When it happens in SLA I push on and if someone stops posting I just write them out.

I believe I've already set off. Am I there yet?

Man, how far away are these things?

Jasper chatters away on the long journey. He sounds like this:

Do you also have a glow in the dark ass?

I reckon Smith is a bit like Robert Blake in Lost Highway

One of my favourite film scenes that.

Once again I wasn't showing any update on this. I tried setting it to the watch thread but I just got a million emails and forgot to check them!

After a long walk...

The snowmobiles are parked, engines idling. They've been fitted with advanced piloting systems for those who have no idea how to use them, sending simple instructions on use to your pans as you get closer.

For the sake of simplicity - Ingress can connect the gps tracker to the snowmobiles in the blink of an eye so they'll give everyone a heading.

The downside of the direction you're heading is that it's into the approaching storm front, the wind is already piking up as its driven ahead of the dark purple/grey clouds.

The estimated time once you set off at a steady pace is sitting at a couple of hours, the terrain mapping systems have plotted a suggested route that isn't direct but follows the less harsh contours of the valley floor, the trees are sparser here too.

What time of day is it? I'm just wondering how many hours of daylight we have left and if we should find shelter before continuing.

Post by **deject** » March 19th, 2011, 23:03

I'd like to check out the map to see where good places to hide from attack and/or storm along the way.

Military (5) + Logic (2) = 5, 5, 2, 3, 3, 2, 4: 2 hits.
Security Procedures (3) + Logic (2) = 5, 2, 6, 6, 4: 3 hits.

I've never driven one of these things manually, thank god for autopilot!

Jon starts revving the engine of his snowmobile

Deject - your rolls allow you to spot a few good places to set up and hide/counter-attack. You mark them on the gps and everyone can see the rendezvous points and withdrawal vectors you've plotted.

As for the storm, you'll need survival skills for that. If anyone is worried about impending storm the related attribute to survival is willpower, remember if you're defaulting to stat alone its -1 dice.

I'll assume you've all set off now. Joose if you want to move your drones with you please say so.

Everyone roll a perception test.

Post by **Joose** » March 22nd, 2011, 17:20

Yep, I'll be keeping the drones with us, spread out above us to keep a watch on stuff. I'll have one keeping an eye on the storm, just in case we are all shit at survival and it tries to rush us.

Perception: I'm a bit confuddled as to what I should roll. I *think* it'll be perception + sensor for the toy, and then pilot + sensor for the drones. Or is it just Sensor by itself for the drones? I'll have a look in a bit and come back.

Post by **deject** » March 22nd, 2011, 17:48

Perception (4) + Intuition (3): 6, 3, 2, 1, 1, 3, 4: 1 hit.
Hearinig Perception (6) + Intuition (3): 5, 1, 6, 6, 4, 4, 3, 4, 3: 3 hits.

Post by **Dog Pants** » March 22nd, 2011, 18:28

PER 4 + INT 4 = 8

1, 3, 1, 3, 4, 5, 4, 1: 1 hit.
