SirLoganofGilead Posted March 17, 2023 Clone Share Posted March 17, 2023 I'm feeling a bit lost about what everyone is currently doing. Oliver is going to go check out what is going on in the woods. What is everyone else doing, so I can react appropriately? Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powderhorn Posted March 25, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted March 25, 2023 As I read it: @SirLoganofGilead with Oliver is going to the woods. @matt_s with Stavard is going to the woods. @8w_gremlin with Brother Koji is looking to do construction work? @TheWhitefire with McCuddy is unspoken for to my knowledge, but I anticipate to be going to the woods. My personal preference, as the DM, is to not split the party - but if people have strong opinions on splitting up, I won't stop anyone. Just let me know what you want to do (especially with Brother Koji and McCuddy) and I'll get the next IC post up.

TheWhitefire Posted March 25, 2023 Clone Share Posted March 25, 2023 Sorry I haven't posted, been swamped with work and life stuff. Yeah, McCuddy will head into the woods with everyone else.

Powderhorn Posted April 8, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted April 8, 2023 Just in case that post wasn't clear - you have one action to do what you want, and are in a relatively open wild plain.

8w_gremlin Posted April 19, 2023 Clone Share Posted April 19, 2023 Hi all, Brother Koji is back at the camp building shelters etc. I didn't think he went with the Hunters as he doesn't have any real weapon skills. in other news, anyone know why this game isn't appearing on my content I follow stream (i've double checked that I'm actually following) any help appreciated Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powderhorn Posted May 6, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted May 6, 2023 Not sure if there is an alert for you all to see it, but I added a zoomed in area of where you guys are in the Setting Information tab, under "World Map Thus Far." Each hex represents 25 miles. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8w_gremlin Posted May 6, 2023 Clone Share Posted May 6, 2023 Man, that lagoon is massive! I take it we're near the end of the peninsular? Might be a good place to fence off, and build out. Question: where did we see the dragon winged fire breathing lizard thing...and how far have we explored?

Powderhorn Posted May 18, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted May 18, 2023 Sorry about the delays - Iceland trip was great, but both wife and I are down sick. She has covid, my tests keep coming back negative. But I feel like crap and am struggling to do anything beyond the barest of rest and feeding ourselves. Just bear with me - posting is high on my list of things I need to do (like dishes, laundry, and mowing the lawn) - but I'm just having a hard time fighting this off apparently.

Powderhorn Posted May 27, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted May 27, 2023 So, just to make sure I'm rocking this the way you all intend, the way I'm mentally framing out this adventaign... (yes, that's what I wrote...) - I figure we have settlement building as a "down time" activity, and then "adventuring" as the... up...time? activity. I want to use the one year mark (the date the boat is intended to return) as the "book" close on this adventure so that there's a firm "end" point, but then it's open for re-evaluation as to whether everyone involved wants to do another year, re-recruitment, yadda yadda yadda. Basically have a "campaign completed" point, and then look as to whether the next book is opened immediately, in time, same crew, different crew, etc. etc. etc. What is sounds like we want to do from the player standpoint is to frontload some of that down time activity to build up the settlement first, and then perhaps adventure more afterwards. If that's the plan, that's totally fine - I just want to make sure I write it the way y'all want. I've been doing down time as a season, crudely chopped into 3 month blocks, so we'd have another 9 months to play with afterwards. IF you want to frontload the downtime, then I'd also want to know what each character individually wants to do with it. Settlement building is the obvious one, but it also sounds like there is the desire to train up a rifle squad, and there are other things that could be done such as regional exploration. (I'm also open to other down time activities too.) Just give me your thoughts on how you want me to do it - I'm pretty flexible 🙂 Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirLoganofGilead Posted May 28, 2023 Clone Share Posted May 28, 2023 Oliver absolutely wants to train a rifle squad, and participate in some of the regional exploration. He's going to want to try to figure out what direction these flying lizards live at. Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8w_gremlin Posted May 28, 2023 Clone Share Posted May 28, 2023 Yeah for Koji and me, for narrative/downtime activities is to get a functional colony set up, I understand that would take a while. Fishing, Fish-runs, and nets plus hunting and gathering for food until we get planted food up and running. if there is an emergency, or encounters, dropping into dramatic time seems a good idea.

matt_s Posted May 28, 2023 Clone Share Posted May 28, 2023 (edited) Maybe one ic thread for settlement building and one for adventuring? But yeah the whole don't starve thing seems important Edited May 28, 2023 by matt_s (see edit history) Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powderhorn Posted June 3, 2023 Author Clone Share Posted June 3, 2023 So right now, I have: @SirLoganofGilead with Oliver training up a rifle squad and doing light exploration. @8w_gremlin with Brother Koji working on food / colony building. @matt_s with Stavard helping on the same. @TheWhitefire - How did you want to utilize Harlan for approx. 3 months of downtime?

matt_s Posted June 3, 2023 Clone Share Posted June 3, 2023 that aligns with my view on what I want Stavard to do, let me know if you need IC posts/dice rolls/what have you Name xDiceName xDiceResult xDiceString xDiceRolls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
