The Ordo ad Liberandum Mechanica, opting for a non-tool based fighting style? Perish the thought!Well, what if we replace their arms with enhanced prosthetics once we have the technology or magic, or biology I guess...
A character can (and will) melee with only their fists. This is not a great option, but it is an option.... I wonder if we can make a build based around this... Would need to find or make the right Subject, maybe give them some martial arts training... Could be interesting.
That seems reasonable. Nuke isn't here right now but I am, so I would like to start a vote from the members of the OaLM to get a ₹1 loan from the Order of the Moonlight Reclaimers, to be used in conjunction with our own funds to secure the Gun handaxes.While it is hard to pin down interest rates until I know the exact rate of return and risk on expidition, a 5-10% per turn rate sounds fair. (Non-compounding)Additionally, the Order of the Moonlight Reclaimers is formally offering their services as a moneylenderWhat are your rates? Like, if I wanted to borrow ₹1, how much interest would you be looking for per turn?
Well. The gunaxes cost 6.13, all we need is one extra Sovereign, and we'll be left with the 0.5 to go on that expedition, and a bit of change. And I see you are already trying to find someone to lend us that money. One option for that could be to work with Honest Hank's Hunter Hideout, we subsidize the buying of the Gunaxes by him, and we pay in full for it later once we have the money.Subject at the very least, yeah. Gear, I'd like to see if we can somehow wrangle enough cash to get the gunaxes. But if you'd prefer, I'd be okay with going for some other gear instead..Jolly good. You want me to handle chairmanning for the moment? As per dgr's suggestion, I'd go for E133 as our first act.While we wait for Canadian Kitten to come back online, should we act with a majority vote to secure our subject and maybe some gear?
ACTx3: With majority approval, OaLM bids ₹3.00 on Candidate E133

Having said that, I was looking at the equipment on offer, and I actually think the gunaxes might be worth the money- but OaLM can't afford them with only three members. If the other members of the order agree, I could see letting you join as well. Alternatively, if you don't want to tie yourself to an order, we could just loan some extra cash from you, and pay you back (with interest) with the proceeds of our first expedition.I would accept that outcome, either recruitment or a loan. Also I agree, with E133 having a decent amount of skill in both melee and ranged combat, but a deficiency when it comes to enc limit, a hybrid weapon like the Gunaxes might be a good investment, if we can afford them.
Elect Doctor Enato Pyrinikos as Chairman of the Ordo ad Liberandum MechanicaYou seem like you're much more competent than me, so I'll agree to this for now.
-Doctor Enato Pyrinikos
-Doctor Digger Vin

We undersigned doctors do hereby charter the creation of the "Ordo ad Liberandum Mechanica" (henceforth referred to as "OaLM"). We agree to pursue this order in Good Faith, to maintain comradery with our fellow members, and to strive at all times to restore the Empire to its former mechanical glory.
Resources gained through OaLM's efforts are to be split as evenly as possible between the undersigned members. In the event a gained resource cannot be split evenly, individual members of OaLM may reimburse the other members the difference to claim that particular resource. Multiple members interested in a particular resource may bid on the item, with the proceeds split evenly among the remaining party members. The OaLM may, through majority vote, elect to retain a percentage of the resources gained, which will then be used to advance the orders agenda.
Decisions made regarding the OaLM require a majority vote. Alterations to the OaLM charter require a unanimous vote. In the event a member is unreachable for a vote or otherwise missing for three (3) or more days, they are considered to have conceded their voting powers until their return.
A "Chairman" may be elected to make decisions on behalf of the OaLM, thus waiving the requirement of a majority vote. This elected Chairman requires a unanimous vote to assume the position, must be a member of OaLM, and may be removed from their position at any time by any member of OaLM.
A member of OaLM may exit the order by announcing their resignation at the start of a turn, which then takes effect at the start of the following turn. The OaLM will then select a sum of assets with which to provide the exiting member equal to their portion of the orders shares (1/NumberOfMembers). In the event that such an amount is unable to be paid immediately, the OaLM is required to pay the amount at their first available convenience.
Any member of the order found to have acted in Poor Faith against his fellow members may be expelled from the order with a unanimous vote, barring the member in question.
Acts of Poor Faith include, but are not limited to, the attempt or performance of the following against fellow members or their assets:
- Murder
- Theft
- Willful deceit
- Chicanery
- Destruction and/or damage
- Disparaging remarks regarding mechanical constructs.
Those undersigned agree to each contribute to this order the following:
- One (1) Starter Moonlight Inoculation
- ₹3.00
This pool of resources will be used to purchase and outfit a minimum of one (1) Moonlight Hunter, who shall be named Fylakas.
Doctors of the Moonlight:
- Doctor Enato Pyrinikos, the Radiant.
- Doctor Rando Dude
- Doctor Digger Of the Vin clan, Seeker of the arcane
If you agree to go for E133 I will join up.Quote from: Charter of the "Ordo ad Liberandum Mechanica"We undersigned doctors do hereby charter the creation of the "Ordo ad Liberandum Mechanica" (henceforth referred to as "OaLM").

And YOU combined greek and latin translations.

Anyway, yeah, eS wrote a good contract. Sign up now. Looking for two others to join.
If Knightwing64 is up for it, I'd be down for that. Though division of labor/funding obligations may get a bit complex. If you do join, we'll probably need to think of a proper name.Something something maybe form a group of three like that animal group?I’m in!Want to collaborate? I buy the hunter, you pay for equipment and the first few expeditions, and we split the profits from those expeditions 50/50. For now we could ally with an agreement to rethink our cooperation once you have enough for a hunter again, and I have enough to pay for whatever equipment the hunter I buy ends up getting. In other words, when we can go our separate ways and not screw each other over by doing so.
Magic doctor.
Sure, I will readjust my purchases in the morning. I’m tired.Spoiler: Stuff (click to show/hide)
