edonil Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 So, Cerah is your Celibate Heroine, eh? That's good, they're all too rare. I'm probably doing the same with Soli and Victor, unless some new character smacks Elle over the head like Kiiva did. Having them teach Jared what's going on would be a great way to do it, actually. If you want, pull a page out of the GW's Dark Angels fluff- the Deathwing and Ravenwing. You only learn the truth at certain levels, but there's easily identifiable markers so you know who knows things. (For the DA, it's the bone colored robes, for example) I always hate when muses start pulling that...my advice is to just start making notes of every idea you have, and hope that she latches onto one.

Mister Monkey Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Sorry to hear you are having a rough week Mako.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Cheers monkey. I'm sure it'll work itself out though in the end, things usually do! Just not so much fun in the meantime. Well, Cerah's not celibate entirely by choice. But she certainly has no personal interest in the people she meets, she's pure cold pro all the way. It's fun to make her the unfeeling job above everything else type. You're right, Jared is basically the perfect tool for that section, he comes back in late on as a young adult so he can be slowly educated over the course of the whole novel. Poor Sophie, I think I shocked her a bit. I let her have a gentle weekend and she seems to have perked up a little, got some painting done. But she probably won't like the big push next week! How's everyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Monkey Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I had to go back to work today .... playing catch up from my two days off .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I'm okay. Tired and bored with work, but that's alright. Have an idea for the next scene to write. Finally hinting at the broader picture, which is fun. Glad to hear Sophie is doing a little better...hopefully that broadens out to you feeling better!

Mako Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Cool, I plan to read your update once my brain gets on track again. Can't believe I spent nearly four hours painting the skin on that one illuminated that has the blob on his back. No wait, actually I can...

Mister Monkey Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I have my New Zealanders half done and a German Grenadier force mostly there.... four hours for skin is crazy.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 A New Zealand force? They have rules for them? O.o And yet still nothing in the pacific theater... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Monkey Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Yeah pretty much the same as the British with some other special rules.... and yeah I am still surprised about the no Pacific thing still.... ---------- Post added at 08:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:36 PM ---------- Besides the game is made here so they show the Kiwis more love then most....

edonil Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Eh. I'm still not a big fan of historical games, honestly. Although, that Jagdpanzer from Bolt Action does look badass and huge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Monkey Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I am enthusiastic now but it will probably wear off in a few days Flames was the first historical game I really played, mainly because my mate at the LGS was running them at the time .... did a lot of playtesting for the early stuff....

edonil Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I tried it, had some fun with the game, but the ever expanding lists of crazy (all of which are legal for some stupid reason?!) and the astronomical price (only reasonable compared to 40k) for a German Panzergrenadier list really kept me out of it...

Mister Monkey Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I do admit, the ever expanding lists are what turned me off (and the politics) so I try to stick with Mid War which is quite well balanced.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Well, it's good to hear they managed to balance something...lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister Monkey Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Cause I playtested it ....LOL... When is the RPG Kickstarter supposed to start anyhow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 From what I've heard, the 27th. Which would be awesome, gives me time to really gather money and invest in it. I'm eagerly looking forward to what they're going to be offering! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edonil Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Yeah. I'm still going to be getting done my Christmas shopping first and all, but I pretty much have that planned out and I've got money set aside for it...only a couple gifts left to figure out, thankfully.

SteamHammer Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Not bad. Got some painting done, finished Arcanum and you'd better check for flying pigs as I finally did some exercise. That must be a first for the last month or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
